Deadass I looked into the real life armor to figure out how durable it was after playing the game and getting bodied by like one sword swipe or a single arrow.
Yeah armor back then was more of a uniform if anything. Or maybe to protect in case of 1v1 barehanded combat from an upset peasant that didnt pay taxes. As soon as sharp steel was involved, it was as if you were naked anyway. Tdlr: lethal difficulty is realistic af.@@derkaiser9881
@@ShenaniloonI don't know what You're talking about You're clearly good If you were bad like me you couldn't have done these challenges even with this much time put in😂
Thank you for doing an actual true no death run for the game and not just restarting at the last checkpoint when you die you’re a beast for sticking through this challenge to the end awesome video
The fact you did a true, no dying challenge speaks so much to your integrity and overall character. So many creators just restart from checkpoint, while you and your masochistic ways give your audience a true experience. I have nothing but props to give and a man’s head nod to you, good Sir. Well done. Your script was on point as well.
with GoT being released on PC i decided to look up if there was anyone mad enough to do a 100% speedrun but i found this instead. i am not disappointed 😆 great job man
Im late to this, but a major tip for the Ryuzo boss fight that worked for me after 100+ deaths on a platinum lethal run, never roll dodge. Only side step his unblockables, also, using heavy attacks more frequently bates out parable blue glint attacks and easily blockable kick attacks. Also when he gets into a slashing furry, just hold block, dont dodge. Hope this helps!
Insanity is doing the same thing again and again and expecting a different outcome, This man was fundamentally insane for 50 tries xD, Goes to show that insanity is just a commitment issue and not a skill issue. But all props to you man this is literally insane in all iterations of the word.
I remember playing this game and i really enjoyed it but when your people betray you after everything youve singlehandedly done for them and then kill your horse and you cant even go back and attack them for it made me quit the game right there. Nice video great dedication cant imagine trying to come back after losing progress at the end like that. Thanks for letting me see how the game ends these years later.
lil' advice, parry if you can, don't doge backwards unless the attack is a sweeping attack, use the hold triangle attack with the water stance against every shield man and don't fair fight spear guys and brutes NEVER it's a dead sentence unless you have poison or ghost stance
@@Shenaniloon yeah rigth? Btw one question, for how long have you played the game? Like in total, me about a year and a half (all of 2021 and the half year from casual playing now and then)
@@Poja_0811 My first experience ever with it was my sword only challenge and that was in July 2022 so since then, I've done this challenge with Iki as well plus just recently the stealth + ghost weapons only challenge and that's all my experience with it. It's my favorite game no doubt by now!
I really considered doing a Lethal run since I often do no-hit runs on notable missions on Medium difficulty. This video made me reconsider Lethal as a bad idea. Thanks a lot!
on lethal it took 30+ attempts to beat ryuzo, if i had to do it your way (which i thought could be fun before your video proved me wrong) i think i would have sended my controller through the screen insane dedication, and when i say insane i really mean it
bro by this video i thought you would have at least a mil subs too look down too see you had 3k was crazy the dedication on this video is insane bro keep this up u just earned a new sub
My first challenge was my Sword Only one and that was my very first experience of the game. Based on when I released the video, Jul 29th, 2022, then I must have started the game for the first time about a week or two before that day.
Haven't even started the video and I'm willing to put aside my pride and say I wouldn't have the patience or the resolve to try this challenge because I feel that my attitude towards this challenge would make me hate this amazing game if I attempted it
Perfectly fair response! My obsession with both the game and the challenge thankfully kept me in love with the game, but I wouldn't blame anyone else for being fed up with it!
Personally the best part about the ending for me is that, with how they're written, both choices can be easliy argued for or against. I personally only pick kill for the white armor, i think the way Jin walks away in the spare ending is the best ending imaginable but for him to honor his only family members dying wish and to be called son 1 more time by said family member? Chefs kiss to the devs for making both endings viable:) top 3 games of all time personally
U inspired me 2 try the same, didn’t do new game but just completed lethal+ with NO combat deaths. Even reset 3 times in act 2 so It was true start 2 finish
I tried to take a fort on Lethal difficulty, took like 3 hours with 30 - 40 deaths. Tried to be aggressive? Die. Tried to be defensive? Die. Tried to parry? Die. Tried to dodge? Die. Tried to one on one? Die. Tried to fight 20 guys at the same time? Die. Tried to do bow arrow again achers? Die (they got aimbot for sure). Tried to block/parry/be cool samurai? Absolutely destroyed. Overall, 11 out of 10, this is GOTY for me and many players, respect TLOU 2 but this one really push you over limit. Cleared almost the whole fort but died to a single arrow because I underestimate archer. And who even playing this as a stealthy shinobi, if you like that you have AC or sekiro. Let fight with honor and stand against all those Mongols!!!
An interesting take which I know many share. From what I've read and heard in game, he doesn't die if you spare him, riding back to his castle injured. We can theorize anything after that, but I'd argue the good ending is Jin sticking to his own personal code, ignoring the samurai code since that's been the core of the whole story. Both options make sense and another part of what makes the game great
If the new Star Wars movies prove anything, it’s a good thing to become a ghost. You could have beat the game so easily!! But I respect your decision to beat it fairly… and honorably…22:21 sort of.
I dont imagine u will be playing this game ever again but when you are using iron will u can change your charm so you get up at 50 percent health and change it back once ur up. That would have saved you in many instances especially the part where u died to fire over and over again.
Oh that's true! I knew about that charm, but unfortunately I had just reached the region and hadn't yet acquired it. But also never thought to change charms mid fight! A smart idea!
I die a couple times resetting minutes of progress and ragequit…meanwhile you lose half a days worth of time and you’re just ok with it 😂 I gotta give you props my man that takes a lot of patience, I hope to be like you one day so I can actually enjoy these types of games 😂
It's not always easy, but I find focusing on the shenanigans of it all over the winning makes it easier! You got this!...Also I'm losing so much I have to get used to it! 😂
Btw did you use charm of fortidude? I feel like it would have helped a lot. The one with 20% chance to survive a lethal hit. And then you couldve used the charm of fortune to boost that by 50%
I actually didn't, but I was real tempted to! I chose not to because I didn't want to rely on chance picking me back up so I went with perks that were more reliable. My luck is too terrible to let luck decide my fate 😅
Lethal is insanely difficult. Of course I've only played about 10 hrs on the new pc version, but that demon fight had me going insane. It might have been better to do some side content first. I had zero worthwhile skills at that point.
That's super fair! The demon fight my first couple times really threw me through a loop for how much harder it is! Once you get the patterns down, everything becomes much simpler at least
Well the value of any game be that expensive probably not, but being I got my ps4 way back when, just for the Spider-Man game, means I'm not one to talk 😅 Ghost is a superb game for sure tho and now it's on PC as well
@@JacobHilmoe-xg4dl I'm with you on that for sure! I may have bought my console just for Spidey, but I'm super glad cause it opened me up to so much more! So is one game worth it? Maybe not, but all the others? Could be!
wish it was a realstic mode instead of "lethal" like why am i dying in one hit in my amour, when dudes with no armour can tank 3 hits. the jump from hard diffuclty to lethal is just insane, annoyingly insane.
lethal difficulty got me questioning the quality of Japanese Armor
Deadass I looked into the real life armor to figure out how durable it was after playing the game and getting bodied by like one sword swipe or a single arrow.
