How Viable is Faith in Demon Souls?

[@vaguevigilante1369]

I’m also livestreaming “Dark souls is faith viable” on KZbin so if you want to drop by and say hi 👍

[@TDS_Wasabi]

KZbin recommendations are FINALLY working as they should, showing me small creators making content that is actually similar to what I usually watch without being, well, what I usually watch. Very enjoyable and entertaining video, can't wait to see the next ones!

[@vaguevigilante1369]

Thank you for the compliment! Working on the video for dark souls so look out for that next week!

[@primalspongebob6144]

I really don’t think I’ll ever get over how freaking good the magic and weapon effects look in this game. Beautiful

[@vaguevigilante1369]

Always looks fantastic. Love also seeing magic weapon when I enchant something like a sword!

[@5Megamen]

5:14 "and I put 2 points into faith, and 3 into vitality" Says while putting 2 points into vitality and 4 into faith

[@vaguevigilante1369]

Yeah my bad lol

[@Catman_CM]

Just the symptoms of writing a script after recording the footage. Few people are willing to rewatch hours of footage at normal speed. Especially if they've set a deadline for themself, and especially especially if they took notes while playing. #justcontentcreatorthings

[@queenfliss]

new small creator who makes content of my favourite games? hell yeah, awesome vid, awesome narration keep up the good work, id love to see ya grow

[@vaguevigilante1369]

Yeah I hope to keep this up all the way to elden ring! Will keep this up and the streams so anybody can watch the journey!

[@queenfliss]

@@vaguevigilante1369 looking forward to seeing ya journey :>

[@salemmhamed2717]

Agreed ❤

[@randibillett472]

I have to say, I actually really like the question posed by the title of the video. It feels like most challenge runners call their videos things like what I'm currently eyeing in my recommended 'Can you beat Demon's Souls with only daggers?' which, like, of course you can, these games aren't designed to force specific equipment use like Zelda might necessitate the Hookshot. But basically doing a whole video asking 'how useful is a Faith build in general' is honestly a lot more interesting and useful, because the end result could be anywhere from 'wow this is better than I thought wtf' to 'yeah you can use this for a casual run' to 'hell no don't touch this shite' to 'good for specific situations but generally not worth the stat allocations necessary for those situations.' It's a small detail, but I applaud that, sir

[@M4gnetar11]

I’m literally playing a faith moonlight gs build on demon souls right now!

[@billythenarwhal1579]

Literally just played Demon's Souls for the first time, running MGS and Istaralle, shit was mint.

[@vaguevigilante1369]

Moonlight can be so smooth to use lmao

[@joa3630]

started my first demon's souls playthrough a few days ago and youtube recommmended this to me, glad to see there's still people in this 4 year old game and not just me, keep up with the videos man i really liked your channel

[@vaguevigilante1369]

I always love coming back to demon souls! Love its world and gameplay even if it’s limited to the games now. Hope your play through is going well!

[@joa3630]

@@vaguevigilante1369 Yeah it went well, even tough the game is pretty dated when you go to play it after beating more recents fromsoftware games (i've already platinum'd elden ring and bloodborne) it´s still a good game and pretty ahead of it´s time. the most obvious downside of demons souls that i believe everyone complains about are the atrocious runbacks to the bosses, as there are no bonfires to sit around the phase, and the bosses being pretty easy overall. But even with that i still got the platinum for demons souls. Appreciate your answer man

[@Catman_CM]

Is the remake already 4 years old? Wow, wtf happened to the time?

[@Jean-Paul_L]

I like the fact that you use the og ost ! I love those soundtrack !

[@jordancargill4350]

excellent KZbin recommendation and worth the 37 min watch you will enjoy your time. good work

[@bruhman5829]

New Souls creator. Most excellent. I like the jokes and casual-banter editing style, you’re a funny guy

[@vaguevigilante1369]

Thanks man!

[@JohnDillenger7]

This channel is criminally underrated. Great video keep it up!!

[@DarkHazard]

Enjoyed the video, found myself laughing at the commentary quite a bit lol. You're naturally funny dude.

[@AharonNiziri]

Great video! I thought it was hilarious that you talked about a lack of damaging spells, and didn't bring WOG cuz spice..... Then immediately went Tower. Laughed harder then i have a video in a long time. Immediate sub.

[@diaryofmoul]

just found your channel - keep up with the work. these vids are super hard to make and yet it was so fun to watch - from the editing to the humour. You're gonna be big

[@vaguevigilante1369]

Oh thank you man! Last day working on this I actually spent like 10 hours right after work just to finish lol. Gonna try to do one on Dark Souls next!

[@chadderbug7587]

This man sounds like he's constantly laughing while talking, I love it and hate it. Subscribed :3

[@martinbach7333]

I will also add something to the pot. Aside from a very nice vidoe recommendation, I appreciate the usage of old Demons Souls Soundtrack. Nice touch :3

[@lokengames7487]

There are 700 people subscribing to this??? Way too few. Feels like a 1.5 mil youtuber. Amazing content

[@gabrielsch8292]

I love recognizing each Soundtrack you choose

[@guilhermemontibeller7222]

Keep up! Top notch content right here

[@nights-3435]

I remember doing this exact same build when I first played Demon Souls. I followed EpicNameBros demon souls play through which he took down sadly. Glad I can see the build again in a dope video

[@Raidzyy]

I love the content and I’m going through my first demons souls playthrough and I’m enjoying watching this while I play

[@vaguevigilante1369]

Thanks for the compliment! Worked a lot of time to get this done so I do appreciate it lol. What build are you going with for your first play through?

[@Figuinot]

Good video. I really like the editing.

[@vaguevigilante1369]

Thanks!

[@jojolmfao]

awesome vid my brother, you earned a sub for sure

[@vaguevigilante1369]

Thanks man! almost done with the dark souls vid on faith!

[@rigorm136]

My favorite version of faith is in DS3. Poise casting is so cracked it’s unreal.

[@dadmoonblade7889]

fr only part of magic in ds3 that i Loved

[@Hideyourtoes_miyazaki]

Ds3 faith is such a laugh I always do faith when I start a new character

[@vaguevigilante1369]

So do you have added poise when casting miracles in ds3?

[@rigorm136]

@vaguevigilante1369 when you use the weapon art on certain casting tools for miracles, specifically talismans, you are granted temporary hyper armor for the duration of the spell cast. This is important because lightning related miracles do more damage when they hit up close. It allows you to basically trade blows using spells and to cast any miracle uninterrupted.

[@alexfredenburg3206]

Canvas talisman with lightning arrow was the best trade tool ever

[@RyanMathews-ld7hi]

Order our bridge medium rare. Thats gold. So glad someone else lives for regen

[@lilj3rf446]

aye you got the funny part, the narration, etc. i definitely think if u keep it up it’s gonna work

[@Leda_2007]

I loved the editing ❤

[@АндрэйКуликов]

Great video, man❤

[@TheDCcity]

Good video. Great music, jokes, and interesting story telling. Thanks for the video

[@kyledoherty3008]

Thanks for the tutorial vid. Im gonna try this now 😁

[@Scirocco1982]

The lava filled caves below the mines contain an armor set and a shield against fire. Use them combined with the ring and the Flamelurker does very little damage.

[@vaguevigilante1369]

Oh i haven't been there just mostly use the shortcut hole to make my way to flame lurker

[@GreenBean_Christine]

I been waiting for this!!!!

[@arsenicbug1537]

funny commentary + was waiting on that maiden in black gank at the end lmao

[@BrutuxMusic]

I just realized the old King is probably a reference to the book "the King in yellow"

Goods stuff bud! Good video an audio quality, I'll give you a sub look forward to more!!!

[@tortoiseterror7073]

15:54 Everyone forgets the Loathsome Dung when we discuss the Loathsome Dungeater 😔

[@insertedgynamehere___969]

Faith build is immortal in demon's souls. If you die: your doing it wrong

[@RandomGuy-ll9uz]

Faith: If you die, you are doing it wrong. Magic: If anything lives long enough to deal damage to you, you are doing it wrong.

[@vaguevigilante1369]

Ye just bring tons of spice and if you “die” just give yourself another second chance lol

[@Cerberus-VII]

Quality content

[@vaguevigilante1369]

Thanks bro!

[@titushathaway5318]

"put some dirt my eye" We aren't gonna just breeze past that now

[@vaguevigilante1369]

YES WE ARE

[@TasTheWatcher]

I've played enough Demon's Souls to see where this is going

[@Jupiter__001_]

I like your comedic timing. Also don't mind all the people getting salty about it being the DeS remake, since gameplay-wise it's mostly the same. The reason (some) people hate it is because of the controversial changes BluePoint (the developers From Software outsourced the remake to) made to the world and character designs (e.g. the fat official, Adjudicator, the castle walls). That isn't really relevant for this video though, and it looks more modern so the average viewer will be more engaged.

[@TheValiantBob]

It always weirds me out when I remember "Oh yeah, Moonlight Greatsword is faith in this game" because I am so used to literally every other game where it's an int weapon lol

[@vaguevigilante1369]

yeah I have only really known it for it's intelligence use but love it in Demon Souls!

[@msarilyn7677]

It's extremely good to be faith as the Large Sword of Moonlight uses Faith.

[@puglordabove3070]

Yay demon souls video!

[@visionary6287]

W vid keep making this kinda content.

[@vaguevigilante1369]

Working on the “is faith viable in dark souls?” Now

[@gabri-immortale]

Faith is better the closer you are to des while magic become the best in elden ring . Still remember my faith moonlight or the crazy hp regen or 2nd life

[@丂长乃从乇卄]

awesome video

That ending was so amazing I really didn’t expect that

Thank you! Wanted to do something different lol

[@TheEpicNub]

Make a few more videos like this from any rpg and your channel will pop off

[@darkzentai7417]

The regeneration build is my favourite. The healing is so good you can stand in poison swamp and out heal the damage.

In the original the Thief Ring wasn't foolproof against Old Hero - he could attack you any moment without warning. Good thing they fixed it in the remake

[@SincerelyKentrell1]

I was shocked when I saw the sub count. Really good content 🤝

[@renm1268]

You made me burst out laughing multiple times in the first 2 minutes of the video. Well done, good sir, you've got a new sub!

[@vaguevigilante1369]

Thanks bro! working on the vid for Dark souls!

[@tye385narf21]

Vangaurd cheeks clappin always get these thumbs ups

[@vaguevigilante1369]

Got a bit freaky before even starting the game 🫡

[@misanthrophex]

Decent meming at the start, fell off later on tho. Also 23:59 I guess you meant to say you don't disencourage bringing it. In total not a bad vid for a youtube noob. You'll need a better mic tho if you want to keep at it, and also up your meming a bit, but it was very good at the start, the style of meming was top notch. I'll give a sub just to see if you get somewhere, there is potential.

[@mysnakeisverysolid4694]

I don’t even play souls games this my homie he the goat

[@splattercorpse9951]

nah this nga tripping lol good video man

[@JellyJman]

Demon’s Souls faith builds are probably the second best faith has ever been in souls games.

[@vaguevigilante1369]

In your opinion what's number 1?

[@JellyJman]

@ Elden Ring

[@KalaXIV]

1.0 Dark Souls 2 (faith has since been gutted and left to die in the street.)

[@jurjcluners8490]

It's very viable.

[@oldiemcfee]

All I know is I don't go into prison of hope without anti-magic miracle no matter what build I'm running.

[@vaguevigilante1369]

I hate the mindflayers but I still think it's pretty do-able without that miracle

[@stevenjohnson1660]

Hahaha I was waiting for that ending

[@TheUltimateRey]

The first time I did a faith based build I used a mace and I had all the stuff to constantly Regan health so I felt pretty unstoppable

[@Ea2-gy9yy]

He locked in not even out of the tutorial😂

[@SonySteals]

37 minutes video essay on subject that could be an email 😂😂

[@DarkmoonWinter]

Sad to say the only build in this game that is worth making that you can actually enjoy the majority of the game with it is a crushing build, preferably the Mirdan Hammer or Great axe variant. Anything else you try to upgrade by the time you are done the game is already over by then.

[@ClonserHalphalive]

Meanwhile - In Elden Ring: Faith having access to all damage types and nearly all status effects (all but sleep).

[@2manyprunes]

I don't think you're ready for Vanguard Demon's jelly!

[@vaguevigilante1369]

Oh i'm ready 🤣

[@blahblahblacha]

eddie brock is a genius choice xx

[@CreedofDarkness]

I genuinely hope Demon Souls comes to PC. I have the PS3 version but it's kinda painful to play as my controller batteries don't hold a charge, so I have to sit super close to my TV.

[@SB-tv6en]

Video is great just one thing I notice the sound effects are a bit louder than your voice and the music as well but not as much.

[@vaguevigilante1369]

Thanks for the advice! Will be more careful for the next vid I just usually suck when it comes to volume

[@KirkWilliams300]

Honestly, outside of blessed infused weapons and the Moonlight GS, there aren’t many good faith offensive tools outside of quality scaling ones like blue blood and meat cleaver. It’s a shame that magic builds get the buffet of options in this game.

[@vaguevigilante1369]

yeah was hoping for a few more options on unique weapons but it was like the first souls games and second chance more than makes up for it lol

[@LordMogatron]

36:32 looool I forgot the whole Eddie Brock angle until now

[@vaguevigilante1369]

yeah was hoping to bring that up last second lol

[@Twinsx2-yw2it]

36:13 that switch up.

Eddie in the comics is like a huge bully even before simbiote.

[@vaguevigilante1369]

How so?

[@ColtonGamingTV]

better get the large sword of moonlight sense it scales with faith in this game. You did, but would have an easier time if you rushed valley early.

[@vaguevigilante1369]

I didn’t have much faith in killing the leechmonger but was told that it’s weak to fire so I probably could’ve rushed it with some pine resin

[@XMegasordX]

Your voice is a bit hard to hear while fighting. Other than that, great video

[@demoneyez97]

Why do you have to unalive yourself before getting the blessed mace?

[@vaguevigilante1369]

If I die while in human form in a level, it'll increase the worlds tendency towards black. I'd recommend watching a vid on that to get an in-depth explanation

[@kenzieuchiha1191]

World Tendency can make or break your gameplay experience. Pure White will make enemies weaker (although I call bullshit in some areas, fucking Valley of Defilememt 😤), but at the cost of less souls gained from killed enemies and they drop healing items more often then anything else. In Pure Black, enemies do more damage, exclusive enemies (primeval demons which drop colorless demon souls when killed), and black (red) phantoms of NPC's will spawn in.

[@Quran_eee]

A liiiil bit less effects And you good to go!

[@rpgfan007]

dragon god = dragon wimp

[@afjer]

Leechmonger is EXTREMELY weak to fire, so putting some pine resin on your weapon will absolutely end that boss.

[@vaguevigilante1369]

Ah that would’ve been good than. Would he be that bad to kill with a weapon upgraded like twice with pine resin?

[@ThorsShadow]

They didn't have to add jiggle physics to Vanguard Demon. 😭
