@@TheBacklogs I both want and don’t want to see you suffer through this like that mad lad who did an all Gwyn run of DS1. Potato god grant you the strength of starches
Honestly, I'm not too surprised that the potato god is all-seeing, after all, potatoes do have eyes. Seriously good video though, I'm glad you're experimenting and trying new styles. Also good choice on the music, the Furi soundtrack especially.
I got this game on a discount yesterday. Then playing it, I keep getting the potato and wonder what the heck this thing is use for because it suck all around. You did something incredible here. This is basiclly punching a tree irl to chop it down. Loving your vid man.
Start of video: "Haha, potatoes have eyes used as a cosmic horror reference." Middle of video: "Wait, so you actually have to completely understand opponents in order to beat them? It is almost as if.." End of videa: "Grant us eyes great potato!"
The more it slowly dwindled, the more time it passed. Each second of it. The more realizations of its challenging outcomes, the trials that now.. Ill watch. I do feel bad for myself having subscribed as you had to then do such a thing
OK I am GLAD! this guy made the mod for you. And also it's so cool seeing what he did! A fashion slot it's an actual genius idea! I wonder if you can add new places in this game and make a great overhaul. I am watching the video now! Thank you Sir!
OK. I want to buy this game, Learn how to code and wish to hopefully make something out of this. This is amazing hopefully soon maybe a great mod shall be made. Revitalize it, create something outstanding and be truly highlighted
Got two New Ideas for Challenge run for you Lemon: - You have to pickup and use every Item and equipment you encounter. (So you can only switch equipment if you run into another one. Shops not allowed for obvious reasons :D) - No Walking (Not sure if this one works but if anyone is crazy enough to try it, it would be you :D)
It is so crazy to me how fast this channel blew up and I am so happy about it, I've been watching the videos for about 3 months now and I really hope the growth stays about the same, going from 500 to over 120k in about a year is such a satisfying thing to see for channels like this
Hooh, Zyphirus helped out on this? Very cool~ I am really looking forward to any bigger projects based on his modding framework in the future. He's doing gods work for the S&S community. Oh, and the run was amazing too, ofc. 😁 Could NEVER go through this fresh potato hell myself. Here's a toast to your sanity. o/
Me too - the man is a legend in my book, and if we can use and abuse his mod for the good of the community, I'm completely onboard. Thanks for the toast!
I was not expecting an excerpt from Lovecraft in a challenge run about potatoes but I suppose thats on me. I can only imagine the time and frustration you put into this. Cheers pota- erh, Lemon.
Hey man, I just started watching your content recently, subbed after the XCOM episode. Just wanted to say going through the backlog (ha) of your content, the glowup that you've gone through over the course of the last like 20-25 videos is honestly very impressive, and even inspiring! You should be really proud of the content that you put out nowadays and I hope that some of the content I make can have such easy to see improvements in the future
Sweet sweet suffering Btw, I don't think anyone minds you started with potatoes, as it would be practically, if not literally impossible without, great work man!
Holy shit! I had no idea the modding scene on S&S had gotten so expansive. I'm definitely going back and checking new mods that people have been making with Desalinated after watching this video
Hello there :) I rarely comment on anything and I know that you probably won't be able to see this, but I just wanted to congratulate you on this amazing run and to say how much I admire you and your willingess to push yourself to new heights. I found your channel during a stressful period of my life and your clips truly brought me lots of laughs and excitement. I love Salt and Sanctuary and at the time I started watching I had already played this game so many times. After seeing you complete a bunch of interesting challenges I got inspired and started playing again. I even started doing and completing challenge runs on my own, including a crossbows only and fists only runs. Today I've finished my most challenging run ever - Level 1, no item upgrades, no NPC spawning. Now admittedly this was the most difficult and heart-pounding challenge I've ever attempted. It went on for so long, some bosses were incredibly difficult with this setup (most notably the Tree of Men and That Stench Most Fowl), there were a few times where I thought that I didn't have what it takes to complete it. The moment I struck the final blow on The Nameless God I felt a rush like I've never experienced before. I feel like there is nothing I can't do and it was all thanks to a few clips made by a truly awesome man. Keep shining on, you incredible human being. :)
Wow, thank you! It means aLOT to hear that my videos improved your day, if even for a moment, and I always love to hear that others were inspired to take on their own challenges after watching mine. That Level1 challenge of yours sounds rough, but I'll bet it felt amazing getting to the end! I hope you capture that feeling again, and remember that pushing yourself to be better is always a recipe for success. Because it always seems impossible until it is done. Thanks again for writing in :) Definitely made my day.
Well, this was a wild ride. I have to admit, it's been too long since I beat the game myself, so I'm not entirely sure what was going on in the end there. But this was an excellent overview, and a seemingly rather brutal challenge - well done :)
That’s a crazy mod and I can’t wait to see what comes of the mods in the game from that. Amazing spud throwing what you did with that tatterabe damage you beat the game...
I'm so glad you got so many subscribers, you 100% deserve them But still the rate at which you gained subs was crazy This video was only 2 years ago and you only had 500, now you have over 300k
I knew picking the Chef for my first playthrough was the right choice, the thorough knowledge of potatoes granted me sight and now I am The All-Seeing's witness and from this day forward will devote my life to the starch.
Damn dude amazing video. I'm so glad i stumbled across this channel a couple weeks ago. You may not have a lot of subs or views but damn I love your content, thanks for all the hard work and please keep making these amazing videos.
It's nice to go back and see of the OG videos every once in while. It's nice seeing the channels humble beginnings. Love your videos and shoot for 500k subscribers you'll get there soon.
I only found your channel about a week ago but I'm glad I did, your video production quality is very high, especially for your sub count. I wish you the best for the future and I'll be supporting you from now on!
Wow. I once thought I was a patient person, but Lemon's runs like this demonstrates what peak determination and resilience looks like. My hat off to you sir!
It’s sad that there are channels on RUclips with shit for quality and they have 100x the subscribers of this lad who has really good quality and is very entertaining to watch. Much love to lemon!~ your insanity is fun to watch!~
I know you probably won't see this at this point, but this video managed to single handedly make me want to mod and replay salt and sanctuary for the millionth time after completing everything there was to complete in the game.
Okay. After seeing a good amount of your content I would like to point out that I really appreciate your videos and your ability to torture yourself on our behalf 😊
wow......😲the presentation, the sultry voice, the sheer entertainment and production value.....😲...... 😲😲 you are the whole package I love your videos❤️
That last skit is an excerpt from that one HP Lovecraft story about the light from the sky that poisoned the water, right? The name escapes me…. But, I gotta say, love the reference.
500 subs?? oh my, your channel has really taken off over the past like 7 months good job. this is my first video i have seen from you but i am excited to watch some more!
Well done! I'm amazed this run spud be done, especially satisfying to see the Unspeakable Deep left in 'taters. Also is that the Katana Zero OST I hear? Very cool game with an excellent soundtrack.
My headcanon is that none of the enemies actually die. They all just get so annoyed by this random dude that just shows up and keeps chucking potato's at them that they do the "ohh no you've defeted me" thing you do with kids.
Yeah when you push yourselves to such extreme measures in a fight where you really can see through all the smoke and mirrors and learning a boss attacks so early to where it just suddenly clicks and your brain finished downloading the method to beat it
Backlogs: "Wow this game is too easy, need to make it challenging for myself." Me: *only defeating bosses after watching videos that show me step by step exactly how to beat the bosses*
Loved this video, got me wanting to play the game again after two years seeing how amazing this mod looks. Though I slightly regret watching it at 3am last night 😂
Kinda weird how that happens with RUclipsrs, isn’t it? I mean mic quality plays into it but it’s hard to deny a lot of their voices change. I can’t tell if it happens with everyone and we just don’t have videos from years ago to watch, or if it’s because the RUclipsr has changed to a RUclipsr voice more
So, who's going to send me the first modded S&S campaign? Place your bets!
How the heck are you not more popular with this amazing content
to be honest, im thinking about making the "everything is a sphindlebeast" challenge that the devs nodded at as an april fools joke
I both want and dont want to see this made.
@@TheBacklogs I both want and don’t want to see you suffer through this like that mad lad who did an all Gwyn run of DS1. Potato god grant you the strength of starches
@@TheBacklogs the madlad came through with his most recent video. Legendary...
The fact that the FINAL BOSS of the game has a 500 RESİSTANCE TO EVERYTHING but 0 resistance to blunt damage
Dude fucking sucks for holy damage builds
@@vilneas6358 Idk, I beat him by gunning him down with my holy pistol
@@adrianmalang2433 it's doable, I mean this guy did it with potatoes, just is strange it punished non physical builds so much
@@adrianmalang2433 holy pistols make holy guys
They knew.
At this rate, I wouldn't be surprised that the All-seeing potato faction be added to Salt and Sacrifice.
God, can you imagine? I'd be honored, but also horrified because I'd be obligated to use that creed for every single SnS2 run I ever do.
In case your still wondering, although there isn't a potato faction the potatoes armour became a real in game item
Carrots
At the end of the third lamb you reached a state of being so pissed that you actually gained inner peace at the thought of revenge
The fact this comment makes so much sense is kinda terrifying
This man, this spud slinging, tuber tossing, yam yeeting, potato pitching mad man. Well played, well played indeed
Tater throwing
This just shows me how much a mod scene could greatly help replayability in Salt 😂
I KNOW. I *_really_* hope people take advantage of this mod and just make all sorts of great nonsense to play around with.
RIP to Lemon's stamina bar in those longer fights.
A 1:1 representation of my IRL stamina during each battle lol
You really flexed on this one, Zephyr. I love it!
Honestly, I'm not too surprised that the potato god is all-seeing, after all, potatoes do have eyes. Seriously good video though, I'm glad you're experimenting and trying new styles. Also good choice on the music, the Furi soundtrack especially.
They grant eyes
Eyes on the inside
Not only do they HAVE eyes, they ARE eyes…. Eyes of potatoes and all that.
Wow, this mod seems absolutely incredible. I HAVE to dive deeper into this. I will (maybe) come back later with a mod.
PS: ALL HAIL THE P O T A T O

I actually had to rewind when you said 500 subscribers. You had such a massive growth over the time and it’s all completely deserved!
Dude went through so much trauma he awakened his sharingan and was able to see the bosses move sets.
The more it slowly dwindled, the more time it passed.
Each second of it.
The more realizations of its challenging outcomes, the trials that now.. Ill watch.
I do feel bad for myself having subscribed as you had to then do such a thing
Never feel bad for supporting the channel! I do what I do because it's fun for me to test my limits.
Hope you enjoy the video :)
OK I am GLAD! this guy made the mod for you.
And also it's so cool seeing what he did! A fashion slot it's an actual genius idea!
I wonder if you can add new places in this game and make a great overhaul.
I am watching the video now! Thank you Sir!
OK. I want to buy this game, Learn how to code and wish to hopefully make something out of this.
This is amazing hopefully soon maybe a great mod shall be made.
Revitalize it, create something outstanding and be truly highlighted
Great job man. I can only only imagine how agonizing and draining this run was. Looking forward to the next one. ONE SPUD TO RULE THEM ALL.
Got two New Ideas for Challenge run for you Lemon:
- You have to pickup and use every Item and equipment you encounter. (So you can only switch equipment if you run into another one. Shops not allowed for obvious reasons :D)
- No Walking (Not sure if this one works but if anyone is crazy enough to try it, it would be you :D)
Use Everything You See would be a lot of fun! As to no walking...look in my "#Shorts" playlist ;)
ahhh right forgot about that one^^
Fair Enough :D

I could almost taste the insanity with this one. Great job, and thanks for pointing out the mod^^
Seeing that you have more than 500 times the sub threshold makes me deeply happy for you, congratulations

Cheers pota- erh, Lemon.
“Slowly. Gently. This Is How A Life Is Taken.”
Damn that gave me fucking chills.
I’m definitely going to use this line in one of my books. If Lemon is alright with it that is.
Its actually a quote from Darkest Dungeon. Youll have to ask them haha

I am insanely hyped for that mod
"it is a mistake to think you can solve any major problems just with potatoes" - The late Douglas Adams.
This is the greatest possible run of S&S.
There isn't a single better way to beat the game
Potato... Some like em mashed, do you here our prayers? As you did with The Backlogs... Grant us eyes... Grant us eyes!
Dude I can't even beat the first boss on the ship with an actual Legit class 😂
Holy shit! I had no idea the modding scene on S&S had gotten so expansive. I'm definitely going back and checking new mods that people have been making with Desalinated after watching this video
There's no way you only had 500 subs at this point. The production quality is ridiculously high for so early on in the game. Good shit, dude
I just watch a salt and sanctuary potato run, yet I had a crisis of self, a crisis of potato-faith, and a potato revelation.
Just another typical Backlogs video, am I right?

here we are again 3 years later and lemons nearing 500k i just want to say thank you for the countless hours of entertainment you’ve given us❤️
Well, this was a wild ride. I have to admit, it's been too long since I beat the game myself, so I'm not entirely sure what was going on in the end there. But this was an excellent overview, and a seemingly rather brutal challenge - well done :)
The patience elemental in training, cool to see how fast your channel grew and way back around when you started.
hey bro, congrats on the 500 subs.
I saw the All Seeing potato getting eaten and I honestly thought that he was gonna scream at Zephyr because I thought it was gonna be a damage buff
Nice reference to The Color Out of Space at the end Lemon
That’s a crazy mod and I can’t wait to see what comes of the mods in the game from that. Amazing spud throwing what you did with that tatterabe damage you beat the game...

Good sir, I'll have you know that your mastery of patience scares me.
The storyline where he achieves apotheosis via potato is excellent
Its amazing to see how much the channel has grown in such a short amount of time
You went from 500 to 243,000 subscribers in a year? Great vids btw this was hilarious 😅

Not only as a potato with potatoes, but (roughly) counted the PPB - Potatos Per Boss. Outstanding!
What an insanely entertaining video. You deserve WAY more subscribers.
Wow, a katana zero ost. Glad to hear one on this channel
Just saying, in one year you went from making a 500 sub video, to having 180k subs. Strong work lemon!
was just about to comment that! so cool to see lemon and the backlogs grow!
Incredibly engaging, you really made this even more than a challenge video in the best way!
Coming back to re-watch this masterpiece after seeing the carrot run.
Feels weird to hear you made it to 500 subs.
I know you probably won't see this at this point, but this video managed to single handedly make me want to mod and replay salt and sanctuary for the millionth time after completing everything there was to complete in the game.
I love how he made the potato class and Creed
i have been watching you around 500 subs and man i didn't see this until now and just, you poor soul. i love you
Lol I appreciate the speech from the colour out of space
I'm watching this video just 9 months later and he already has 50k subs, also i love your videos.
On a roleplay level, this is THE best video you've done so far.
References from both Darkest Dungeon and H.P. Lovecraft's The Colour Out of Space? Amazing.
From 500 to almost 200k subs in a year . My dude keep up the work and fucking love binge watching your runs :')
I don't know what the fuck a salt or sanctuary is, but thanks for the video lemon!
I just found your channel but it feels like I've been here forever.
what a wonderful journey, thank you.
An "embarrassing" amount of time is better than the embarrassment of getting beaten by potatoes.
Im glad someone asked already about the prince is was thinking the same thing but didnt wanna be the one. Awesome video man keep it up
Okay. After seeing a good amount of your content I would like to point out that I really appreciate your videos and your ability to torture yourself on our behalf 😊
To think, that this man only had 500 subscribers back then.
Keep doing what you do man, not a single subscriber was undeserved
wow......😲the presentation, the sultry voice, the sheer entertainment and production value.....😲...... 😲😲 you are the whole package I love your videos❤️
2 years ago you had 500 subs now 374k and your videos are fun great job man.
That last skit is an excerpt from that one HP Lovecraft story about the light from the sky that poisoned the water, right? The name escapes me…. But, I gotta say, love the reference.
500 subs?? oh my, your channel has really taken off over the past like 7 months good job. this is my first video i have seen from you but i am excited to watch some more!
I really enjoyed this, especially the bit in the beginning. Really well done, I have no doubt if you keep this up you'll grow big time.
A year ago celebrating 500 subs, now 215k congratulations on the growth, you make good videos and people will notice.
Well done! I'm amazed this run spud be done, especially satisfying to see the Unspeakable Deep left in 'taters.
Also is that the Katana Zero OST I hear? Very cool game with an excellent soundtrack.
The Color Out of Space speech was a nice touch!
This... this is truly legendary. Godspeed for whatever run you do next Lemon
The Mad Man, congratulations man you're a beast !!
My headcanon is that none of the enemies actually die. They all just get so annoyed by this random dude that just shows up and keeps chucking potato's at them that they do the "ohh no you've defeted me" thing you do with kids.
Damn 500 youve been growing insanely fast. I subbed a few days ago just after watching a couple vids. Congrats!
Man, I love the boss designs in this game
Ah, potato, or some say "po-tah-to"... Do you hear our prayers?
Yeah when you push yourselves to such extreme measures in a fight where you really can see through all the smoke and mirrors and learning a boss attacks so early to where it just suddenly clicks and your brain finished downloading the method to beat it

From 500 to 24 thousand subscribers in just 8 months. That’s impressive
loved that ending, so powerful literally reversing time to destroy him again again so bad ass
Oh my, where are you going to go from here? Surely you can't get a more tedious/tough challenge?!
Salt and potatoes!
If I've learned anything from doing challenge runs, it's that the community will always find another harder run. Always.
23:40 Color from outer space. Nice reference.
"We've finally reached 500 subscribers." Oh, how far you've come, Lemon. Here's to another three years, and another half a million.
10:05 A battle of nutrition you say? Well good thing you're beefed up on POTATOES.
Damn. Coming to this video two years later. Man's voice is WAY different
Kinda weird how that happens with RUclipsrs, isn’t it? I mean mic quality plays into it but it’s hard to deny a lot of their voices change. I can’t tell if it happens with everyone and we just don’t have videos from years ago to watch, or if it’s because the RUclipsr has changed to a RUclipsr voice more
