Ok guys so I see a lot of debate in the comments about DS2, many people seem to have very differing opinions and some arguing seems to have broken out, some even with name calling involved. So I'm going to settle this right now, this should solve this once and for all but this might be a VERY controversial opinion so be prepared: Dark Souls 2 is part of the Dark Souls trilogy
@jacydesica406910 ай бұрын
Indeed it is and out of all FROM Soft games (including Elden Ring) I had the most fun with this game. People have different tastes and thats ok. Its a game, nothing more. People should stop telling other people which items they are allowed to have fun with.

How to describe making a pyromancy build in this game? Okay, it’s like this: Imagine you are a bird, making a nest. You fly out and search for twigs. Before too long, you find a nice twig, and then another. You keep picking them up, and appear to be making good progress. But then, after you find enough twigs for about half of a nest, you just…stop finding them. There are no more twigs. Now you have to make a nest out of not nearly enough materials, and even if you succeed, you know it’ll be threadbare and terrible to live in. That’s what pure pyro builds are like in DS2.

@@sanddagger36I definitely enjoy the gameplay of planning how to tackle a room full of enemies. That first street in Central Yharnam comes to mind, as does the part of Lothric Castle after the bridge and right before Dragonslayer Armor. With MMOs, usually the trash mobs don't respawn once you've cleared them out the first time, which helps give you a pacing cool down between bosses without slowing down attempts if you're struggling. DS2 gank placement felt less interesting and more tedious, personally. 12 guys clown car-ing out of a tiny door in a narrow hallway was funny the first time but just annoying the next few. Sometimes I want to just run through stuff I've already done, or feel powerful clearing out weaker enemies, and DS2 is more "all caution all the time" until you kill stuff so much it stops respawning, so I don't enjoy the pacing as much as the other games. That said, if you've decided to play a game like DS2, it makes sense to pay attention to how it's designed and play accordingly, so hopefully your friends come around and give it a go the way it was meant to be enjoyed, if that's a type of gameplay they enjoy in other games.
@michaelp438710 ай бұрын
@@sanddagger36 Yes, it's fun to plan ahead and systematically draw aggro out of a dozen enemies, taking them out one by one until you get to the boss. It's quite interesting to do so the first time around... and the second time... maybe the third time... but as you make more and more attempts at the boss, you get impatient, you feel your time is wasted on the same mobs you cleared time and times again, you try to rush, you get ganked, you die. That's where I find the ganks aggrevating and annoyting. It's such a bliss From added statues of Marika in ER. You still have to tackle the level fully, but once you've done that, you don't have to spend trash time on basic enemies ever again.

The invader in Eleum Loyce didn't show up because killing a boss in DS2 gives you the effect of burning an effigy, preventing invasions for 30 minutes. That's what the black and white icon with the red line through it means. Also, the solution to free-aiming spells in DS2 is the binoculars.

25:18 remind me of my own Strat in this part where I’d pop lingering flame, pull up a greatsheild and bait the little rats into headfirst diving onto the bombs

I thought i heard of some people doing this kind of "magic challenge" but it was a four-player co-op run with a sorcerer, a miracle user, a hexer and a pyromancer. Can't find anything about anyone doing that, and I don't know how workable that would be but sounds like it'd be fun.

I'm picky who I sub to. But, this was a sick run and i was fully entertained from start to finish. Looking forwards to being here when you hit 100k, good luck!

Oof... You sir are a patience elemental. I haven't empathized with someone's pain so much since I saw the Backlogs do immolation only in DS2. Great run, and I hope you get some well deserved rest after this one!

42:07 Covetous Demon can be poisoned, but his resistance is so high, it could take hundreds of spell casts.

@SirKavos I swear, that man must already have gone Hollow with some of the challenge runs he's done, like Immolation Only.

I never did ng+ so I was surprised to find out about Freya coming out to fight you. That's actually sick.

Fun fact: agility, the stat which governs roll i-frames and item speed increases with both attunement and adaptability.

I like your videos, especially this one and other DS 2 videos. But there is one thing I have to tell you about your puns: They are great. :)

the reason, I think, Ian the guard dragon flipped out on the miracle play through is he has a seperate animation for dying mid air and it seems you hit him when he in the air but 2 feet off the ground making that weird flip effect

Every second sentence is a pun I swear it's painful but funny how many you managed to shove into this

The best souls game. Thanks for not shit talking it at every turn. Great video

Love the idea. Great video. Cannot handle the puns, though. Good luck getting to 100,000.
