Playing Dark Souls 1 For the First Time is Bad for my Soul, Get it?

An Elden Ring player tries Dark Souls for the first time! Today I continue to play through Dark Souls 1, and it's an amazing game so far. The game has been an adventure as I head into the depth, fight the Capra Demon, fight the Gaping Dragon, and progress further into the world! Thanks for watching!

You are the person I go to when im eating and need youtube to watch

[@itsSpicyGaming]

That is a compliment of the highest degree. The eating KZbinr is very important 🙏

[@liamstrand9295]

YES, EXACTLY. LOVE IT

[@Sv3n_wav]

This.

[@black8824]

same

[@michaelp4387]

Was doing the same, until dung pie😂

[@errortrossity]

This dude is the chosen one, he beat the Capra Demon first try.

[@Dank_memes875]

Agreed

[@matsh5633]

It's easy with heavy armor or wolf ring (high poise meaning dogs won't stagger you)

[@andrewanderson1755]

I managed to kill the Capra demon first try the other day on my first walkthrough. I'm gonna call it luck though and maybe being a little over leveled.

[@mdogmatt5793]

I just use the dung method where you can poison the boss without entering the arena

[@BagreArtista]

nah Capra isn't that hard

[@ryanwight9116]

“I feel like I don’t want to be here” Pretty much describes multiple ares in the game

[@fufumccuddlypoops5502]

2:45 every souls player has felt this pain. Getting 1 shot by Havel when he’s so close to death

[@josephsidorko5375]

The free aim shots with the bow were genuinely very impressive

[@itsSpicyGaming]

What do you guys think of the on screen chat? I'm experimenting with it, but might have to switch to Twitch live streams for it to not suck 😅

[@Aruu-Artorias]

it's alright :3 looks good

[@dupedick]

Looks good for this game. Only thing that is sort of hard to see is your souls but that isn't too bad.

[@liamstrand9295]

It’s good, just make sure to keep the back seating in line if that’s what you wanna do. If you’re fine with how it is rn then by all means, I can’t force you. But i would send 20 ballistic missiles to anyone backseating in an overly annoying/spoilery way XD

[@notresponding3794]

It's fine

[@martinherrera25]

it's fine as long as chat doesn't spoil the surprises

[@lloydirving6209]

not a fan of the chat on screen. well, it wouldn't bother me at all, except that the chat is full of spoilers and backseating lol. annoying to see on a first blind playthrough

[@user-zn8ij7rq4y]

You have earned my respect for the first try on capra demon. Good job.

[@Kaasi20]

Love these vids man. Your commentary, the length, the quality. It’s all just perfect. When I need a not short but good videos, your the channel i come to. ❤

[@itsaUSBline]

Just stumbled on these. I love watching new people play through the first Dark Souls, always interesting to see how new people approach things and what order they discover different areas, since the world is a lot less linear than later entries. You seem pretty chill and have a nice earnest vibe too, just a chill dude playing through a game, not trying to ham it up but still reacting to things. Keep up the good work.

[@g-magz9502]

Idk how you have only 25k dude you’re a great youtuber! Love this series

[@michaelbelding1593]

These have got to be some of the most interesting let’s play videos I’ve ever seen

[@corpsexgrinder6746]

Awesome vid bro! Love watching the playthrough as I playthrough

[@Grim_Erudite]

Seeing your journey has been great so far

[@ComfortsSpecter]

Incredible Series Amazing Find Love Watching Your Souls Playthrough Good Vibe Thank You Great Man

[@basildraws]

What???? I can't even fathom how you flashed the Capra Demon. It literally took me 50 attempts my 1st playthrough. Good freakin' job.

[@annaramirez-xl8lm]

i love watching these videos while grinding in dark souls

[@rodrigorobledo7841]

The thumbnails are on point!! Take that Da Vinci

[@ghoulsome9483]

I'm finishing up my SL1 no pyro all bosses run of DS1, got inspired by the series to play the game again. Hope you're having fun with it

[@MartySnowdog]

Love that you keep two handing your axe and roll

[@mistermango8224]

dude these videos are great, love the humor lol

[@Angel-ub8dw]

The amount of backseating chat does is annoying, but if that is okay for u then I guess it's fine

[@sgtdipaolo]

i must mention that when the gold guy kills the firekeeper, there'll be a whole quest to hunt him down, and after it's done, you'll get the soul of the firekeeper back. as soon as you get it, *IMMEDIATELY HEAD BACK TO FIRELINK SHRINE and put it back where it belongs*. I've seen so many people accidently use that soul because it looks the exact same as a normal firekeeper soul, so people use it for their Estus upgrade.

[@manuelmedina3201]

the Backseat from the chat, ruins everything that a first run means.

[@synops7795]

bro i'm french, i think your videos are really cool, i enjoyed them

[@jonnykhatru]

Enjoying your videos mate 👍

[@MDrummKid2]

Love the classic let’s play format

[@Oofan69]

1:49 Immaculate Havel killing music very faintly in the background (thought I was hearing things that wasn’t there initially) ff4’s airship theme is a bop!

[@zachcormier967]

These are great. Can't wait for DS2 and 3

[@a.clover5487]

So glad to see you do all of these, I think you should do demon souls before it’s too easy after this

[@sebastianestrada3075]

you gotta finish the whole game!!

[@exelentidea8176]

i love the "i don't mess with ads in a boss fight" immediately an ad plays.

[@kasumilotus]

You are now my favorite KZbinr 🙏🏻😺

[@mysticcc3171]

ik i'm 6 months late but ur def a new fav youtuber of mine :D

[@AnneALias]

Amazing content. Amazing game.

[@rangimcgowan4073]

“Yeah havels dead” ahhhh I remember saying that 206578 times

[@collinrussell6957]

Love the JSRF music!

[@psyo_nade3177]

You have that new to ds1 but not new to souls formula vibe and its fun to watch

[@siris4622]

I like the chat. Some of their suggestions take away from experiencing a blind playthrough. Suggestions for paths that you might miss are fine but you can only experience DS1 for the first time once so some of the tips take away from that experience in my opinion. Great video! Love these series you have been doing.

[@dupedick]

I am excited to see how you do with the later sections of this game. I really enjoy DS1 but Lost Izalith and Tomb of the Giants are two of my least favorite areas in the series.

[@ghoulsome9483]

absolutely, such a shame it won't ever really be fixed. At least the dlc content helps the last third of the game a whole bunch, like top 5 bosses, at least 3 of those are from the dlc

[@dupedick]

​@@ghoulsome9483Honestly I think the dlc are the best 4 bosses in DS1. I love the dlc so kuch in this game even though I don't love the stuff after Anor Londo in the base game.

[@Tony-The-Motherfucking-Tiger]

I was in that stream 💪🏽

[@invisiblefiddle1645]

1:19 you can backstab the armored boar in undead burg in between the bridge and church.

[@papaemeritus8721]

at around 9 minutes you ask who that door is for, believe it or not, Fromsoft actually added an Easter egg for Charles White in the game, you'll know him from his role in Hunger Games. So yeah pretty cool.

[@YoungCatracho]

Awww such good memories of when i first visited the depths 😂

[@Flagrantbook]

Are you going to play armored core 6? Big fan btw

[@Itsfinebuddy]

Use a shield, A SHIELD!

[@emoharalampiev1590]

Just a slight personal feedback, I generally enjoy a bit less edited stuff. Not ofc I'm just a random one guy and you have built your audience around this edit style so ofc if you rather keep it the way it is perfectly understandable, but you know if there are more people who think like I do, or if you've been thinking about experimenting with less edits, or whatever thought I'd put this comment (and hey worst case scenario an extra comment is just extra engagement for the vid so it ain't like it's hurting) Oh also if you could label the parts of the series in the title it would be real nice.

[@ThePeteriarchy]

Not the Cadussy Round Shield lmao

[@Goobergurl]

CLASSIC getting one-shot by Havel XD

[@shidanslair]

5:03 Is funny to see the comparison with Monster Hunter because I played MH before any souls game, so the DS1 also reminded me of MH, and even though MH is an older franchise than Dark Souls, I doubt that FromSoftware actually took elements from it.

[@georgewendell]

17:21 lolol so corny I love it

[@quentingau9398]

playing it live with people backseating you was the worst idea imo

[@CChamps]

True lost a lot of the charm of the playthrougt

[@thedeegeesaga]

It's cool to see you are enjoying it, but Dark Souls chat is surprisingly spoiler-y and backseating-ish.

[@EternalAnkh]

"It's a Drake, not a Dragon." It's a Wyvern, actually.

[@user-dc9uk6ut1u]

The best famail i ever seen

[@BababoyBurger]

Yooooooo its we live we love we lie

[@LeMikel]

I know this is old but just found this videos, and they are really entertaining, but the chat backseat is really a run killer, it kills all the fun of exploring and discovering the world and mechanics on your own

[@carson9464]

10:26 he already knew

[@Nicholas_Ravencroft]

I didn't know that boar was humanoid enemy in ds... noted

[@CrazyhorseDK]

let the screams begin

[@TerrennonPriv]

Valley of Dragons -> LowerBlighttown better and easier than Lowertown -> Depths-> Upper Blighttown -> LowerBlighttown. But yeah you need to use first leson you learn in tutorial. Skip big boys untill you get big. Depths unlock +10 weapon, so Depths-> +10 -> Blighttown if you want to be super ready. BigBoss in Asylum get weapon from +14->+15(max)

[@scott6595]

Idk how you beat Capra that easily…I’m pretty seasoned in ds, especially 1 and that’s insane…I always die to that mf

[@joseaquiler]

gotta love the blind playthroughs

[@IronicSonics]

hmm not so blind with the chat telling him quest outcomes

[@PutitinDaramen]

why'd you edit out the music for the boss fights?

[@1estel1ch.42]

jesus fuck he beat the capra demon first try. this man really is john darksoul

[@arthas236]

17:40 why did you change the boss music?

[@busken10]

drakes does not have wings!

[@dimcha2669]

aaaaand another run immediately ruined by backseating twitch chats

[@chadman1003]

That’s such a cool helmet, you should keep it and not let a parasitic Maggot replace your head

[@MDrummKid2]

Aw man I was enjoying seeing a blind play through but that’s kinda impossible with twitch chat backseat gamin :/

[@pixelatedcatlover]

He killed the real boss part of the capra demon and called it an ad

[@SCP-Dr_Bright]

it's not a drake. drakes don't have wings. that's the key determining factor when it comes to drakes vs dragons. dragons are drakes with wings and drakes are dragons without wings. the dragon in dark souls clearly has wings.

[@TimothyGod]

I like the screen chat. But i do need to suggest something, you tend to leave too quickly when there possible loot. Enemies take a second to drop loot sometimes, i know its annoying to have to sit around, but a lot of enemies you find may drop useful upgrade materials. The other thing is looting corpses, sometimes, and this is dukb i know, you have to lick things up a couple times. Right before capra demon, theres the thief gear, and theif weapons. They count as seperate items and need to be looted seperately. Loving the run so far, yoy kinda made lower undead burg your biotch. That place is harder than you made it seem

[@lucaoliveira248]

isnt this like, his third "playing dark souls for the first time" vid?

[@AarkanOfficial]

You could always parry Havel

[@notseaththescaleless]

oh i get it. dark souls.

[@CastielsFace]

Praise the smurf cat

[@ZachAttack3710]

We live, we love, we lie?

[@iyomqp2235]

Actually it's really good that you didn't get any black knight's weapon. Any of them is completely broken, and turn the game into easy mode.

[@yehoshua6328]

Sucks that chat tries to spoil the story with the Fire keeper and Lautrec... Something like that really is better left to learn about through playing the game and experiencing it. And all it takes is one sentence to kind of ruin a special moment.

[@typical.4856]

dayum, good video

[@karimakram9948]

Demon's souls when?

[@xanderatkinson2748]

As someone who has been playing Soulsborne games for 6 years. I absolutely love to see people Playing souls games for the first Time.

why you are using this slow roll? make max 25% equip load, you'll be a lot faster

[@--Burn--]

Does it ever occur to you in this game that uuuhm....YOU HAVE A SHIELD ON YOUR BACK?!? Maybe...Idk....USE IT??(Not all the time, ofcourse, but sometimes it can be VERY useful)

[@aptspire]

17:00 the cuckoo Something funny happens when you remove the "oo" try shouting it at random people.

[@Kinta02]

yea no. playing first time with chat next to it spoiling everything and telling you exactly what to do. nah mate

[@Lqnpacker]

its the best souls game bro get it

[@josefblosef]

Twitch chattttttt why

Not a fan of the on screen chat? I'm playing around with it to see how people feel.

If ya parry Havel he gets ALOT easier

[@calvin8464]

Nah just roll and backstab. One missed party and you're done

[@ryanwight9116]

@@calvin8464 that’s why I only do it in DS1, I rarely miss a parry in that game. It’s the other DS games I can’t parry worth a sh8t

[@conraddejongh3898]

Did you forget parrying in DS1 is harder than doing literally anything.

[@ryanwight9116]

@@conraddejongh3898 not for me. I had no issue mastering the parry timing in DS1 to the point I rarely miss it. I cannot say the same for the other DS games as I can’t parry for sh8t in them. Some people have trouble trying to parry in DS1 but I’m definitely not one of them

​@@ryanwight9116parrying in ds1 is much easier than 2 but I haven't tried parrying with 3 yet. I just got it earlier today. I hope it's better than 2
