[@jimjoerobinson]

this series is so much better than Vaati's omg

[@zoikoikum]

+Jamster Thank you so much! Really appreciate that :)

[@pokashine]

Dat Chaos Eater escape though!

[@zoikoikum]

pokashine Our Chosen Undead cannot swim but climbs like a pro :D

[@pokashine]

zoikoikum They can wield 20 pound swords, cast magic that makes corpses explode... but why can they not swim?? T~T

[@joshuakim5240]

+pokashine They probably can't swim because they're usually carrying too much stuff to do so. Imagine trying to swim while in a suit of plate armor...or rock armor. And even when in light gear, we're shoving around an invisible sack full of orbs, grasses, armor sets, weapons, weird memorabilia, a keyring that must be the size of a room, and more XD.

[@edch7516]

I wish the entire dark souls community knew about your awesome channel and work

[@zoikoikum]

Thank you

[@juliandezeeuw4404]

The detail they put in this game is insane, especially those dev messages!

[@yaboyswiggity]

I had no idea about the kalameet one. Awesome.

[@errayqou9870]

Wow didn't know about the grabs xD that's amazing bro!

[@zoikoikum]

***** Glad to hear ;)

[@pharisthearcher1712]

You should mention the 3 resins are taken after the first 3 lords lightning for Gwyn, Fire for the witch of Izalith, and poison for Nito

[@drowninginthoughts]

You did it! I learned something new! The Gold pine colour in the Crystal caves is new to me. Well done! As an extra to seek guidance someone (I'm not sure who it was but it was posted on reddit about a month ago with a video) did some tests on it and showed how it affects player messages. It was very interesting.

[@zoikoikum]

***** Nice, finally something new for you too :) I have to search for that post, sound really interesting!

[@drowninginthoughts]

Btw. How do you prefer to be contacted? Steam? Mail? Once I'm back in Germany I want to supply some hidden details :p

[@zoikoikum]

***** wait what, you are from germany? so we could talk german too? :D and mail or pm via youtube would be great!! Kann es nicht erwarten was da für super Details auf mich zukommen werden :D

[@drowninginthoughts]

zoikoikum haha, ich hab nur englisch geschrieben damit der Rest nicht ausgeschlossen wird :p bin Anfang September zurück und kann dann wieder auf meine Sachen zugreifen.

[@zoikoikum]

***** achso, das hab ich nicht bedacht :) Freue mich schon - bin mal echt gespannt was so ein alter Dark Souls Pro aus dem Hut zaubert :D

[@emilym.634]

wow this is a great series, really stuff i legit didn't notice during my playthroughs! you're incredibly observant!

[@zoikoikum]

+Emily Mayan Really glad to hear that :)

[@MisterMystic_]

That button mashing one will help me out a lot on my SL1 playthrough! I'm recently killed Sif but my farthest area is Sen's Funhouse though. So far it is a 100% solo playthrough but I might ask my friend to help me (even though we are racing on the SL1 run) on the Fortress. Or maybe on 4K, or everything else lol. :D

[@U_F_N_M]

This series is awesome.

[@zoikoikum]

Thank you :)

[@RezCut]

damn never knew about the button mashing. Nice one :D

[@zoikoikum]

RezzeR Glad there was something new for you :)

[@DarkCrystalFlame]

zoikoikum Is it a specific button like the light attack button or miscellaneous buttons?

[@Starkk_of_Astora]

zoikoikum input about which buttons apreciated :p

[@finoderi]

Peter Dupke darksouls.wikidot.com/grab-damage-reduction

[@zoikoikum]

DarkCrystalFlame Peter Dupke Sorry for missing info: if you mash all buttons it should definitely work! I found out that mashing only R1 and L1 do the job also! The link posted by finoderi has the complete list of the grabs you can escape!

[@JosephJoestur]

0:47 Winning!

[@roriksavant]

I only knew a few of these! Good job!

[@zoikoikum]

Thanks bro!

[@OregoX]

Wow, großartige sachen hier. Das meiste wusste ich gar nicht. z.b das man Nito's Griff entkommen kann. :O Natürlich war die musik auch wieder Spitze. :D

[@zoikoikum]

***** Freut mich zu hören ;)

[@vincentiusx]

These are really really good.

[@davidlorente8497]

Quality videos indeed! Thank you

[@zoikoikum]

David Lorente Glad to hear that - thanks :)

[@Starkk_of_Astora]

Nice one again, always something new to see ;)

[@zoikoikum]

Peter Dupke Glad to hear :)

[@riddarhyttan]

#5 is really interesting, had no idea. Very glad I never noticed #6...o_O

[@zoikoikum]

riddarhyttan There is definitely some lore behind #5...like the mother had a miscarriage (for that the spikes out of the child's face) and than the father tried to resurrect the child but made it only worse and they became pinwheel...just my thoughts about it :)

[@riddarhyttan]

I was thinking along those lines as well. Whatever the father's intentions, what he did was desired neither by the mother or whatever state the child was in (a shred of a soul?) - which is apparent in their spite. Just a guess, I'm in BL2 at the mo and in entirely the wrong frame of mind for DS lore ;)

[@giantdad7642]

the seek guidance thing blew my fucking mind

[@zoikoikum]

***** the "try projectile" in front of gwynevere is by far the best :D

[@108saimon4]

zoikoikum what button need to smash in PC version to escape grab?

[@giantdad7642]

Саймон Амбер the block and attack buttons

[@zoikoikum]

Саймон Амбер what Giantdad said :) The buttons you use for the left and right-handed light attacks.

[@Salamatiqus]

zoikoikum mashing parry instead of block works too

[@iamthereddemon20]

all this time later and i never knew seek guidance revealed extra dev messsages

[@damearstor2120]

No.2 seems like a pretty neat trick to be usid in PvP.Also,if I remember correctly Centipede Demon's grab attack does no damage to me when I'm mashing the buttons to escape it

[@zoikoikum]

Siress Arstor That's true!! I just didn't cover him because the footage I had looked so messy :)

[@damearstor2120]

zoikoikum Ohhh now I know why.Before this I thought it was a bug but when I see that some of the grab attacks can be escaped unscathed,Centipede Demon's grab attack came to my mind :D

[@Strummify]

Great job! Learnt some new things even after multiple playthroughs. Where is the place at 2:39 and what is the reference talking about?

[@zoikoikum]

+Daniel It's the bonfire in the Dephts...Devs just trolling here :D

[@Strummify]

+zoikoikum OH haha thanks

[@NoHolllw]

damn it I wish for a copy of an uncut version of dark souls it would've been so cool if Oscar was there the whole game or if shevas quest was in the game on man but dark souls is still my favorite game even if they cut out alot of cool content

[@zoikoikum]

+Wyatt Eubanks I am so sad they removed Oscar's questline :/ But at least they kept Solaire in the game \[T]/

[@NoHolllw]

Did you know that Miyazaki wanted the praise the SUN emote in Demon souls but I can't remember the reason why it was not put into the game Shevas quest line would've been pretty interesting and awesome if I had to chose it would be Oscars questline

[@Sleksin]

It was actually, just hidden behind using some items and spells in accordance. It was like that because some higher up at From Software (or something along those lines) said it 'didn't look cool.'

[@Nox93]

3:39 lol

[@SuicideFrog]

Nox Get the fuck off my roof you filthy bird

[@garubojanchestere2515]

Thats a nice profile pic.

[@Nox93]

boobs

[@Nox93]

I found it somewhere... err... official sites...

[@Nox93]

I cant say it... emmm... its a secret " *escapes* "

[@LetsPlayLuffy]

War echt verwundert über das 'button smashing'. :D Habe nur Nummer 4. nicht verstanden, was war denn da genau? Und noch eine Frage, habe zwar Dark Souls 3 gespielt, aber brauchst du noch meine Meinung? Gibt ja genug Videos dazu. Ansonsten, wie immer ein nettes Video. :)

[@zoikoikum]

LetsPlayLuffy Hey Luffy, Habe mir jetzt schon etliche Gameplays angeschaut aber die Meinung von jemanden der es selbst gezockt hat würde mich natürlich sehr interessieren :) Außer den Estus gibt es keine Heil-items oder? Und das Kampfsystem generell erinnert mehr an DS1 (schnell) oder DS2 (langsam)? Und hins. Punkt 4: wenn du Waffen ausrüstest oder Items in die Schnellzauber packst, wird das im Inventar mit dem kleinen roten Symbol über den ausgerüsteten Items angezeigt. In dem roten Symbol ist ein kleines Darksign zu sehen: i.imgur.com/6kpoG.jpg

[@LetsPlayLuffy]

zoikoikum Außer dem Estus habe ich sonst kein Heil Item gefunden. Gehe stark davon aus das es wie in DS1 wird. Dennoch ist das Spiel noch in Entwicklung, und noch ein halbes Jahr bis zum Release. Also kann sich noch alles ändern. Zum Estus: wenn du den Estus austrinkst, wird die Textur unten im Inventar auch immer weniger. Wenn du dann am Leuchtfeuer sitzt, wird es dann wieder voll. Das Kampfsystem war schneller als DS1, aber langsamer als Bloodborne (von den Waffen die man jetzt zur Verfügung hatte). Also irgendetwas dazwischen. Klar werden sicherlich einige Waffen noch langsamer als DS1 werden, aber das liegt dann am Moveset der Waffen. Im allgemeinen fand ich das Spiel sehr nice, aber auch etwas schwerer als die Vorgänger. Da es sehr viele Gegner auf einem Haufen gab. Man sieht schon wie sie den Speicher der neuen Konsolen ausnutzen. Das Parieren funktioniert auch, je nach Schild, wie in DS1. Nur muss man hier etwas präziser sein (Parry Zeit scheint irgendwie gekürzt zu sein, also fand ich's zumindest so). Das backstaben funktioniert auch ubgefair wie in DS1. Aber da musst du auch genau hinter dem Gegner stehen um einen landen zu können. Ist zwar nicht so übertrieben wie das die anderen sagen, also das man genau auf den Pixel hinter dem Gegner sein muss, aber ist schon schwerer geworden einen zu landen. Das Gewicht der Rüstung war mir etwas Strange. Obwohl man mit der Rüstung die man hatte schwer rollen sollte, ging es ganz normal und schnell. Das Leveldesign war eher eine Mischung aus Demon Souls und Bloodborne. Leider habe ich es gerade so zum Boss geschafft. Mussten leider raus. Haben den noch versucht, aber bin gestorben. Also kann ich nichts wirklich zum Boss sagen. Falls du noch Fragen hast, sag mir einfach Bescheid. Denke schon das ich das ein oder andere ausgelassen habe. ^^

[@LetsPlayLuffy]

zoikoikum Und danke wegen dem Link, weiß es nun. War mir im Video, am Anfang, nicht so wirklich klar. :)

[@zoikoikum]

LetsPlayLuffy Vielen vielen Dank für deinen ausführlichen Bericht!! Das klingt ja alles sehr vielversprechend!! Außer das mit den Haufen an Gegnern find ich jetzt nicht sooo toll, war DS1 ja viel mehr auf 1vs1 ausgelegt... Aber wie du schon sagst, man soll den Tag nicht vor dem Abend loben - da wird sicher noch einiges geändert :D

[@LetsPlayLuffy]

zoikoikum Immer wieder gerne. Falls dir noch Fragen einfallen, immer her damit. Ja, das fand ich auch echt fies. Vor allem haben dich die Gegner so gut wie immer gestaggert. Also war das schon eher ein 'ich muss aufpassen' Kampf. Wird sich aber schon ändern, hoffe ich zumindest. Genau, ist noch ein halbes Jahr hin. Also noch genug Zeit um hier und da zu schrauben. Aber auch so würde ich mich auf das Spiel freuen. :D

[@kroyatful]

Wow, Im gonna try the escape thing for Dark Souls 1 and 2!

[@zoikoikum]

+kroyatful Definitely a life-saver :D

[@kroyatful]

zoikoikum So is it like particular buttons? because I tried mashing random ones whenever I'd get grabbed or w/e in Dark Souls 3 and nothing happened. I hope that I just did it wrong and that it's not because they didn't add this feature to Dark Souls 3 :(

[@zoikoikum]

I think I managed to escape a grab in DS3, but I'm not sure at all! I hope they didn't forget it -.-

[@kroyatful]

Ill keep looking into it! Thanks for responding! Hope to see you do this series for Dark Souls 3? :D

[@zoikoikum]

kroyatful Definitely! :D

[@DoomDogDan666PvEDestinyContent]

There is a way to make the tomb of giants blue. I'll be honest, I have no idea how I did it BUT I do know I killed Nito last. Hope that helps! =3

[@zoikoikum]

DoomDogDan666 I'll google that :D

[@yiShxng1996]

Hey bro! Have you seen the new gameplay from dark souls 3? what do you think?

[@zoikoikum]

DarkArtorias Hey DarkArtorias, Of course I saw it...although not to much cause I didn't want to spoiler me too much... But what I saw was amazing :)

[@yiShxng1996]

yeh ok hehe

[@CCommandeRR]

new sub here, i noticed the 4,999 subs, planning a 5,000 sub special?

[@marcobessa1483]

About the grab release, I found out about that watching PewDiePie's series, when he threw his controller up and his character jumped off the monster lol

[@simastekorius7525]

Wp... If u make a 3rd episode, i will have a feeling u are hidetaka miyazaki...

[@zoikoikum]

Simas Tekorius ;D

[@bennewman7715]

3:09 "and AN unique escape combination" 🤔 what is the meaning behind this, I think we need Vaati to investigate

[@DunkeysLongLostSon]

*Try projectile* even the developers are fucking trolls!

[@3labIIV]

pretty good really but... why is it that you haven't uploaded anything about bloodborne

[@zoikoikum]

Alexander Pain thx! don't have a ps4 :(

[@OceanMan_Nico]

3:00 WHAT THE HELL?!?!! :O

[@charliecartwright4371]

Wait Nito has a grabbing attack? I've never ever seen that

[@GamerRoman]

Look's like you got off youre Hug-addiction.

[@zoikoikum]

GamerRoman lol xD

[@carlosmunozochoa873]

3:35 wait... is that ornifex?

[@garubojanchestere2515]

Man, the only thing i hate about dark souls is it is badly optimized in pc.but I can play dsII in pc

[@zoikoikum]

JC Garubo you could use dsfix...it solves a lot of problems :)
