Lords of the Fallen - Ultimate Beginners Guide

[@christopherway2546]

Also, I just have to give massive props to CB. The only man in the game that makes these beginner guides, build guides and walkthroughs as if he’s talking to someone who’s brand new to gaming. I went from non gamer to Plat Sekiro in 70 hours because of this dude.

[@rickyblaze8263]

Me too lol

[@davidwhite206]

Yeah, I gotta kill Demon of Hatred and Isshin the Sword Saint for my first playthrough.

[@tehdouglas1]

I enjoy his voice, the ign begginers guide sounds like its narrated by spongebob

[@Killbomb]

The man with the PhD in Soulslikes. Thanks for the guide and especially for explaining the stat caps at the beginning.

[@BobaVett]

Man. I can’t get over that armor set. Looking like the Penitent One. It. Is. So. Badass.

[@jeremykane999]

Even the sword looks like the Mea Culpa

[@MattR8605]

Wonder if Cowboy will play Blasphemous 2 at some point. With all the solid games that have been releasing one after the other I feel like it’s kinda flown under the radar a bit.

[@lorddrewcifer7650]

CB is the reason why I'm more interested in this game now. Had to subscribe to his channel.

[@DustinLittlefield]

Man, @FightinCowboy you have helped me since Darksoul and almost every game you’ve made a video for since. I want to say thank you for all the work you put into your videos and content. The way you explain pros and cons, gameplay mechanics and anything else that someone would need to know about any soulsbourne game.. you’re the G.O.A.T buddy. Thank you for everything.

[@kls701]

Been with him since dark souls 3 and blood borne my man. He is good.

[@broth33]

cowboy you're amazing. you're my go to, been following you since forever. Ds2, Ds1, Ds3, Bloodborne, sekiro, Sotfs, elden ring, Rubicon, nioh everything played everything following your guides. Finally got my hands on lotf can't wait. Keep up the grind. You're no doubt my top 3 💪🏿💪🏿

[@christopherway2546]

I haven’t seen Cowboy since about June. Just been goofing around with some easy games. LotF drops and I finally throw it in, open YT and here he is. It’s like YT knew I needed him.

[@LuisTorres-bp5kt]

Your not human. The game is just out and already we have beginner guides

[@muguanbu2703]

😂

[@roguenecro1133]

He got early access along with a lot of other creators. He’s been playing for a while. They just aren’t allowed to release videos until the company gives them the green light, which is usually right before the game comes out

[@plain_simple_garak]

He's had it for weeks dude lol

[@roguenecro1133]

@@plain_simple_garak for someone who has literally made a career out of making content like this, especially for souls like games, weeks is plenty enough time to put out a guide video

[@_ghostly_]

It comes out tomorrow, Friday 13th October 2023, not today.

[@richardwhite3521]

The day that some releases a game or patch where your weapons and sheaths don’t clip through your character’s capes will be the day we truely have a next-gen souls-like.

[@RKDriver]

Watched all of his playthroughs that have been uploaded thus far. Certainly a challenging game no doubt. The enemies just swarm and creep up on you out of nowhere. Getting through those first initial areas with low health and poor equipment looks rage inducing but once he got adequately leveled up and improved his equipment, the fun factor seemed to go up. I love these games and watching Cowboy progress through it, I think a lot of Souls fans are going to love it. Looking forward to playing this one. Thanks for all the work you put into these videos and walkthroughs.

[@donwarwick3359]

As someone who’s playing the game there is no fun factor it’s just mob after mob after mob

[@richardwhite3521]

This game LOOKS so good, graphically. I’m so hyped.

[@Nimoot]

You need like a 4080 or a 4090 plus a super CPU to run it like this though.

[@AchillesFeel]

@@Nimootyup mines running like absolute buns 😂

[@joshualueptow6275]

Been following since Elden Ring, love these vids/build guides from you.

[@thisnameisfake5657]

Well cowboy, you've done it again. Convinced me to get another game that I probably wouldn't have dared without knowing you're gonna able to guide me through it

[@cooperm211]

Circling back around to this game now and this is super helpful. Clear and quick.

[@JJsiN84]

I didn't even notice that they had a stagger gage. Close to halfway through the game decided to watch this and what do you know actually came out with useful information. You generally always make great informative videos for souls likes, much appreciated. Edit: Don't buy the Pilgrim Key. I don't want to spoil anything myself I will just say you will get it later on in the game. Learn from my mistakes because there's enemies behind those doors that will absolutely demolish you lol. It's basically an item that gets you into a late game area. Hope that wasn't too much of a spoiler just trying to help you save your vigor.

[@Bermondseybob]

The area where you run to the blacksmith was my goto area to farm. Pop Umbral and do a circuit including the platform with the knight on it and it's possible to get around 8000 vigour per run with the boost ring. It served me well, right up to end game.

[@ronenhiller2321]

Finally someone who explains it all in one video. It was very helpful, thanks so much ❤️🙏

[@tonyyi2932]

You have the best voice for commentaries, bro lol. Always enjoy the guides! Can't wait to play this tomorrow!

[@jiml8801]

Nice video cowboy. I just got home from a business trip. Preordered the game before and can finally play this game now. The guide is really helpful to start! Thank you.

[@Mstr4Pltrgst]

I just got this game and didn’t understand most of it even as a old dark souls player and this helped so much, I’m excited for this game it looks great

[@RuanPedro_ThanatosOfDark]

Im starting to play this game today and this tutorial helped a lot to understand the mechanics of this soul style game! Many thanks!

[@sikevillain]

Thanks for the tips and tricks no spoilers & Bro the Blasphemous looking armor set is amazing. 🔥

[@Azulking33]

It's crazy how I was hoping for this type of armour!

[@Dee-Gee13]

This man has already beat the game straight machine 😢😮 love the content though won’t be watching anymore play truth until I get the game but these guides are great and informative

[@SReaperX]

I never thought of soul flaying enemies off cliffs. You’re my hero 👍

[@danielstevenson1250]

Don’t let this go to your head, you are very good at explaining this game to us.

[@nmj1937]

Did not know about the lamp being able to suck up souls (vigor), huge convenience you just made me aware of, I was physically running over everything.

[@Certified_souls_player]

I really love your guides. I love how you break everything down and explain it in detail because a lot of this stuff I had no clue about.

[@gpodin16]

Bro you don’t understand how major this video has helped me out!! Areas where I’m like there’s no fucking way I can beat this just made it so much easier now lmao. Thank you!

[@captaingigglez1605]

Omg I am so dumb. I was like "Why is cowboy pumping out videos already?" Turns out the release date I googled was FOR THE FIRST GAME FML.. time to jump in!!

[@christopherway2546]

If anyone is trying to get the smithy and have come to the door covered in roots and it has an Umbral entity blocking it there’s 3 1 is on the platform below- follow the big spine bridge down 2 on the spot CB was standing to let the spike head run off the platform 3 it to the right and up of the door.

[@SomethingScotty]

One thing Cowboy didn't mention is the game has motion momentum. So if you full send towards a ledge and jump to get to another ledge, you'll probably stumble off the other side if the platform is narrow enough.

[@Uther1]

Just Stop Running mid air and you land in noe spot and wont move :)

[@pedromiguel9878]

@@Uther1 yup

[@SomethingScotty]

@@Uther1 Yeah noticed that too after playing. Has the Dark Souls 2 style run and jump mechanics.

[@CcujojacCin]

The zombies in umbrel are scared of the lamp if u shine it at them they will cover their face and shy away slowly btw keep up the awesome content cowboy!!

[@aiellamori]

They will attack you from behind, however

[@Cyrus_Shokan]

I’m not sure why but I’ve stopped enjoying playing souls games. Has anyone else ever experienced this ? I wish I knew why. Thanks for this guide as always 🤠

[@KinggNozaa]

Still not enjoying the souls game anymore? Must be a seasoned vet. I’m just now barely getting into it and dipped my toes with lords of the fallen and am absolutely loving it. Makes me want to start from the beginning skipping demon souls lol trying to figure out if after I get through with LotF if I wanna start from the beginning or just jump onto Elden ring.

[@Cyrus_Shokan]

@@KinggNozaa I'm loving ER dlc. Never enjoyed LOTF

[@YashPatel97335]

⁠@@Cyrus_ShokanLotf is wanna be soulsgame but falls short I guess. But it is not a bad game by any means. Way better than first one but still didn’t really catch all souls players. Many people who like souls didn’t like lotr. So I think fromsoftware has spoiled us by giving best games😂😂 and we expect every other soulslike game to on par with orignal.

[@iamnormaldan]

THANK YOU! New to the game but super hooked and didn’t understand much lol

[@crazypills88]

Thank you for this. You gave me some tips I didn't know and also revealed how to follow maps. I'm pretty stuck on wich zones I have to visit and in which order and at the moment I'm figuring it out just by how strong enemies are there. Great job and keep up the good work.

[@Edwinschuur]

Wow why would they make the blacksmith almost a secret to find? Glad you made this guide to find something so essential.

[@afrosenshi2803]

only youtuber i trust with souls like games 🙏🏽 Cowboy the goat

[@beans8130]

Am I settling down with a cup of tea & a piece of cake to watch this....yes I am

[@JordansMortalKombatAdven-xn3qo]

Awesome as this is my first full souls-like experience that my friend Jacob gifted me on digital for my birthday this month on Xbox I really think this should help

[@shaungallier6013]

I have found this the most insightful beginners guide out there, thanks for the video, great help

[@CL88Rembert]

There’s Brady and then there’s FightinCowboy ! Thank you sir

[@pacman5800]

I jumped back in to play through this game again since all the updates changes and new quest and modifiers. I've only played through the game once at release decided to do a holy mage playthrough.

[@iDramaXx]

Loving these videos, excited to play in a few hours.

[@brettwilson3859]

Hell yeah!!

[@Opaali]

How’s it going I’m curious?

[@brettwilson3859]

3 more hours to go!! I'm ready, anybody else?

[@rugie6247]

Cowboy! Thanks for all you do bro! When I saw you on the armored core official stream I was super stoked for you. Just wanted to say thanks again

[@j.winsome]

Just wanted to say thanks alot this is a great help..wouldn't have gotten thru elden ring without you

I don't get to watch as much as I use to but I always drop by to leave a like

[@dustinf11]

I'm glad you enjoy this game. I've been playing it and have been really impressed. Many things in it speak directly to me. I don't get all the hate.

[@hadesrecordofragnarok]

Watching this right before release thanks, cowboy.

[@BluePoo52]

Remember the old trick if you’re stuck on a boss or discover a boss arena and you don’t wanna fight the boss for whatever reason: just quit to the menu. This is useful if you wanna pick up your vigor real quick in the boss arena then go elsewhere

[@sasanr1]

I'm so excited to play this game , just upgraded my RAM for playing it smoothly on high resolution

[@bassomitron]

Thanks for the tips/guide @FightinCowboy, as always! Kind of crazy that they made the blacksmith missable? Seems like a pretty damn critical NPC to leave tucked away like this, I don't think I would have found her for a long time if it weren't for your video! I would have just assumed that the main story path would have me come across her in a way that was very noticeable, so I'm glad I just happened to check this out before finishing Pilgrim's Perch.

[@davidwhite206]

I heard her hitting the anvil and knew she was below me, but I I didn't go down to free her because I was on my way to the boss. Went back and got her though. You can certainly hear her if you are paying attention.

[@highdo2244]

Damn, the Penitent One is a beast.

Good looks cowboy here we go on another amazing journey

[@shabazz717]

Cowboy my dude for anything souls like. The king of souls….. cowboy!

[@BrownbearJHAWK]

Honestly I was waiting for your interpretation of it before I really went for it and was happy with your take my friend. Picked it up myself and I'm having a real good time. I do have a gripe but other than that one thing it's a solid experience that I recommend people check out. Very Dark souls esq obviously but in a good way. Cheers

Cowboy is kinda legend in soulslike top guides, Thanks!
