I know he said he hated it a lot in the playthrough, but it was really satisfying to see Ray go from a complete noob to parrying Gwyn to death.
RIGHT !!!
Always gotta be that one asshole that goes “Ayktchually, Shince Gwynn Schwings his s schord schlow, he’s scho easy”
Get the fuck out of here.
4:12 “LIKE IM GONNA PULL OFF A PARRY!”
@@splunkmastah4609 bruh lmaoooooooo 😂🤣. There’s always that 1 am I right?
It's amazing how good of a gamer he is. Guess achievement grinding really disciplines you.
His first death wasn’t until the first black knight?! Damnnnnn, Ray!
Knight as starting class was good choice because of defense of the armor. :V
Shit he didn't break 100 before O&S.
Sen's Playhouse and the Anor Londo archers probably had over 100 deaths for me my first time lol
@cade clark Oh yeah, I still remember the Call of Duty videos where Ray absolutely dunked on them.
@cade clark gamer™️
@@Cyyberslam8 remember him winning versus like 30 weeks straight?
Ray: Fat Rolls for the first half of the game
Also Ray: Defeats Seath first try even though two of the OP clams made it into the boss room.
Ray in 2018: Me going outside at all "I'm in danger"
Me: Foreshadowing can be an effective tool.
Thanks cooler owl.
“You guys ready for a sick parry“ *immediately flattened* 🤣🤣
As an avid Dark Souls player who loves every Souls-Born From makes, I can for sure see why some people just hate these games with a passion. I don't feel that way, but fuck man... I get it.
Same i have about 20k hours in the souls series in just dks1 i have 10k hours its my most played game and i get why people dont like these games even now i still have trouble with bed and still die to hollows every now and then these games are brutal and not for everyone
@@9474sammus Same. I feel like it's how they approach it. These aren't inherently hard games if you take your time and think. but most people have just heard rumors of how "hard" the game is. and they throw themselves against the wall over and over and build frustration. obviously, that's not a fun time. except for DS2 DLC's there is almost always a way to make a boss or area easier. it's just a game of patience.
@@GoodMorningHikers Interesting point. Anecdotally, as a pretty casual player, that was my experience. I found with Fromsoft games, they became far more enjoyable when you look at them as teachers, and properly apply their lessons. I very much viewed them as brick walls that you ram into repeatedly at first. I did still find them enjoyable that way, as they weren't impossibly difficult by any means with that play style. But when you instead try to discern the lesson that is being taught to you, when you accept patience as a virtue, and take the responsibility of failure onto yourself, a new level of satisfaction becomes available to you. Satisfaction that comes from a place of continual effort, of gaining understanding and eventual mastery over what once seemed an insurmountable challenge. I felt this especially in two non-Soulsborne titles: Sekiro and DOOM Eternal.
I was much worse at games in general when I first attempted those experiences. My first time through Sekiro, I remember how many of the fights seemed impossible. The centipede fight was absurd to me, initially. The amount of attacks had to be bullshit, surely. But then you learn the power of your parry, the timing of the attacks, and he becomes a trivial fight. And what you learn from that fight is applicable to almost every fight. If you can learn to parry, then you can come to master the game. And when you finish it, you look back on every fight that seemed impossible, and realize at every single step, the puzzle was solved, and the mechanics understood. And you know you understand the game because it wouldn't have let you complete it otherwise.
In DOOM Eternal, it was a similar experience. I found myself stuck at Taras Nabad on Ultra-Violence. I just couldn't seem to grasp the mechanics. So I restarted it on Nightmare a couple months later, really learned the game, and now the area that I couldn't dream of passing has become nearly forgettable, an enjoyably difficult but ultimately trivial room that I've basically never died on since truly learning the game. Going from being stuck on that room, to having a level of mastery that leaves even the most insane encounters completely comprehensible and beyond doable is a level of satisfaction very few games can say they offer the player. When a Spirit randomly enters a Tyrant, and you don't even flinch because the game has taught you, held you accountable, and prepared you to take on this threat, you know you've played something dedicated to the player, to actually teaching them something, to making them think about and overcome what can seem to be a genuinely impossible encounter. The puzzle comes together for you in its entirety. You understand how each mechanic feeds into the next, how to maximize your damage, how to aim, how to move, how to switch weapons. This only exists because the game holds you accountable. This allows the player to enter even a master level fully confident. They are ready to be presented with absurd challenges, and they know exactly how to respond.
The only question is can you execute the lessons you've learned in the heat of a boss fight? In other words, under the most pressure the game can offer, can you still go tit for tat, answer its questions, and demonstrate your skill? This is what makes all of these games so amazing. When you accept the experience and put in the effort to learn, they can inhabit much the same role as things like sudoku and chess. Though at a much higher speed, and for a more modern generation. They are very much puzzle boxes, constructed to subtly walk you through them, to give you the means to learn and grow, to keep you on the edge of your competency, and then reward you for extending past it. They are, I think, what games fundamentally should be; a puzzle to solve, and then to master.
@@WhenDevilsDuel what a useless comment good job
@@9474sammus bruh that's almost 2 and a half years on a franchise that's been around for a decade. A quarter of your past decade of life was not playing these games stop lying
The best part about all of this is Ray refusing to fix the fat roll, I wonder how many people it upset lmao. He had his own fun playing this
I haven't seen his stream live in a long long time but Ray has a hard no back seating rule which is fine. However he'll constantly complain and refuse to change. It's Ray he'll live and die by stubbornness.
Ray reminds me of me, where if I'm doing something wrong and someone acts all high and mighty and gets annoying about it, I'll keep doing it wrong on purpose just as an FU
Unfortunately, "acting high and mighty and annoying" is the definition of Twitch chat
@@Satherian Fucking same.
@@allstarwoo4 Ray's chat is really weird when it comes to backseating. Sometimes he will literally ask chat a question and people will scream backseating, other times someone will not know anything about a game and give a random suggestion and people will scream backseating. People take backseating way too seriously in that chat imo, it's seriously not that big a deal. What else are people supposed to talk about in chat if not the game? If you're watching him repeat the same thing over and over again, am I supposed to go "you got it next time chief" in chat every time he dies?
Ray really is the dark souls of streaming
34:23 "this game is surprisingly easy to 100%"
The knights honor achievement: Are you sure about that?
I know Ray didn't really care for this game, but I watched the stream up until the Bell Gargoyles before I decided to give this game a second try after I had years before. It's become my favorite game, and my favorite series so I'm really glad he did play it
Wish he'd play 3 or bloodborne they improved a lot of the stuff people complain about in later games but oh well
It's at about that same point that I decided to put his playthrough on hold and buy it. I never played or seen dark souls before he played. I played it a ton during breaks in my last year of school, then played a ton of Dark Souls 3. Love the games, but I understand it's nuances don't make everyone enjoy it.
@@Mrholysymbol He would hate Bloodborne, I think, too much movement and dodging. DS3 tho is very good, and nowhere near as BS as DS1. If he got any single amount of enjoyment from DS1, he would enjoy DS3 so much more.
@@Dorraj It's funny you say that, cause I think he'd enjoy BB more cause it's more fast pace.
@@fullmetal_3961 Based on how he played this game, I gravely disagree.
"When you hit the wall, you stop" Now *that's* a fun mechanic
"Oh yeah, that playthrough from last year"
**2018
"oh"
Yup
Gets worse with time
Ray: You know what? We don't need to parry.
Gwyn: By God, I may actually have a chance!
the joy of seeing someone experience Dark Souls for the first time are so high
34:58
The epitome of "Why do I hear boss music?"
I wish he would play Bloodborne, because even though he doesn't want to play these games again, that one is a lot faster paced and would be more up his alley I feel
Or Sekiro, I feel like that game that fixes a lot of issues that from software games previously had
He said on a stream the other day that it's on his list of games to play
@@CapedKiller sekiro or bloodborne?
I imagine theres a balance between "The game has a shitload of design choices which are objectivly bad" which I agree with and "The story and gameply is unique and challenging" which I also agree with.
Yea its called bloodborne and dark souls 3. Extremely fun combat and mechanics but also easy enough for beginners to get into it. I had never played these games before and bloodborne led me to ds3.
@@monandoboi7360 Story? In a souls game? Eh?
You mean lore. Plenty of lore, very little story.
The fact that he went from never playing it to beating it and didn’t go hollow is badass. Ray is in a league by himself
shirt front - "NO FEAR!"
shirt back - "OH SHIT FEAR!"
25:51 I'm ashamed that I laughed so hard at that.
Even though I love dark souls, Bed of Chaos is probably the worst boss fight ever made in the history of video games... ever
Even FromSoft has said it's the worst boss they've ever made and that it was a mistake.
As things go, making it go gargoyles with only six deaths is pretty impressive.
36:45 ray kills a random enemy by dabbing
30:00 Ah memories.
Side note: Cannot believe he survived his first encounter with the frogs, I died almost instantly to curse the first time I went down there lol
10:58 his reaction to Solaire is great when he does the Y
You know I forgot he played this, I watched a 5 hours highlight video . Him being done with the game is hilatious
Hey if you really enjoyed that video download it. Ray is gonna take down every compilation video under his name.
"is this the final boss? Looks like the final boss." A game so good you can't even tell if you're at the final boss. 10/10
1:02:32 yeah he is right. He lucked out getting the BK halberd, it is easily the best weapon in the game.
Could we get a life is strange 2 highlight? Not because I like the characters, but because I want to see Ray shred the shit out of those unlikable characters.
Cabloliusrex has a great highlight reel of that game and all the other life is strange games too
@@ryans6969 not anymore!
@@termentir7257 I think I jinx everything ray related lmao, this happened when I told somebody his twitch channel was called brownman and the day after he changed it
16:04 *Belfry Luna has entered the chat*
god imagine if ray started with dark souls 2
@@bobbysmiles244 If only Ray could have played 2 right after...
@@IncandescentWriter ADP? that wasn't in the first game, eh probably doesn't do anything
Ace Attorney would make a great compilation!
Ray played it over multiple months so the monthly compilations have missed many highlights from the playthrough.
omg it happened? Thank you for this highlight! Truly appreciate your work doing this.
I know Ray will probably never get into the other games, but oh how I wish. Respect his decision anyways. It was brutal in the beginning with me as well. I'm playing it for the third time, first time on PC anyways, and definitely enjoying it a lot more on this playthrough.
rays reaction to the mimic in sen's was priceless
it amazes me how far ray gets using Fatty rolling
Ray actually did really well and I'm extremely impressed.
Ray: * spends entire game calling enemies dumb for falling backward off ledges
Also Ray: 53:38
I love these Highlights videos! Since I don't have time to watch the complete stream :) Thank you, Ray
I really hate those elitists players. I love these games, but they are not for everyone. Even calling them hard isn't really accurate. I beat all the games in the soulsborne series, Sekiro included, but I gave up on the Crash Insane trilogy and Mario Odysee because I sucked at them and wasn't having fun. That just means I'm not good at those games and don't care to get better. Play what you like to play. Games are about having fun. Not being entitled.
I feel the same way. I HATE the newer Mario games because of the way they play, while I’ll play any generic FPS game that lands in my lap and have the time of my life. It’s all about having fun.
Say what you will,the first DS sucked,the other games are great,but this one sucked
1:1:00 oh how ray could’ve listened to that message
53:29 "It's Ray's worst fear."
"What, Skeletons?"
"No, children."
54:11 that timing
"Let's just not parry!" I feel ya Ray... I feel ya
I doubt Ray will see this but the guy who made Cursed Halo made a mod for Dark Souls that adds the Halo guns to the game. It makes the game so much more fun
My favorite game Ray has ever streamed. Seeing a highlights clip on the RUclips channel is great! Thanks Ray!
The fact that Ray didn't lose it and break something is amazing. Big ups to you, Ray!
I really hope these give you a lot of money Ray
39:30 As soon as I saw that fire growing in his chest I knew the outcome.
This man right here started a crippling dark souls addiction for me
When I saw him get to ornstein and smough I just started laughing to myself knowing what was about to happen.
Good old dark souls. Just makes everyone hate the game hate them selves and just hate every thing. 10/10 would recommend
It's been forever since this came out and I've already watched it like 3 times, but the letter opener bit still got me crackin up
Thanks again light!
Yes i thank you every time lol
And I will hopefully say you’re welcome every time! Thanks for watching!
I really want that Sad as F*ck shirt.
It says "Sad as fuck" not "sad as f*ck"
You can say 'fuck' on the internet
This is such a dark souls highlight video
Good comp! I do miss the memes from the other compiler but this is much better paced and there's no annoying side notes that are totally uneccesary to the vid.
A stronger man than I.
48:30 For the good bit
"I predict 500 deaths"
A little optimistic there, aren't we Ray?
Literally what I said, I was like, "does he mean 500 on stream? Or in general?" Cuz that's low ballin it
@@MossyMud how's it low balling when he didnt get half of that lul
@@J3009 in the context of him streaming, yeah he most likely would not have died 500 times unless he was just struggling, but in general, like in the context of the whole playthrough, chances are hes gonna get got way more than 500 times, lol
And for good reason since Ray ended at 245
Thanks, Light! Always prefer watching here.
You're welcome and enjoy!
Can't wait for chat to vote for him to do a run through the DLC.
I love that ray says it’s like kingdom hearts before seeing Tina said the exact same
Just discovered your channel, god this is pretty good
"That piano is sick" 🥲
1:10:05 I can't believe Dark Souls predicted a Gen 8 Legendary Pokemon 8 years beforehand.
Coming back to this video a uear and a half later.
Good joke past me.
If Ray played Dark Souls 2 1st for whatever reason he would blow his brains out lmfao
I played DS2 first. Last Giant took me like 40+ attempts my first time. After going a little farther into the game I restarted and beat him my first try.
Just because the game sucks, if anything. Otherwise it's ridiculously easy for a DS game.
@@chuck7024 True only difficult part is Frigid outskirts
@@LvLocks1915 we don't talk about raindeer fuckland
Such a shame that Ray just couldn't cross that line that would have made his experience better. He had a vicious circle going where because he was having trouble he wasn't really enjoying it, so he didn't have much incentive to experiment or explore, so he never found things and paths that would have made things easier for him so he could enjoy it more.
Watching him run through the whole depths over and over for the gaping dragon hurts so much when you know how many times he walked past the shortcut.
Watching him struggle with the archer part hurts as well when you know he could have searched Sens for the sneaky ring to make it so much easier.
Dark Souls is about a million miles away from a perfect game (or series. There isn't a single game in the soulsborne set which isn't flawed in some way) but Ray's experience was the worst of it.
Ok, this is coming from a person who has only played 1,2 and a bit of Sekiro so I see the issues as
Demon Souls: Completely unexplained gameplay mechanics (world tendency, the fact that you supposed to play the worlds like 1-1 then 2-1 not 1-1 to 1-2 like you would logically think) and anything doing with the Thief’s Ring or magic
Dark Souls: Slow movement speed, magic is still op, can only teleport from bonfire to bonfire like halfway through the game
Dark Souls 2: Huge nerf to magic, way to many bosses and certain bosses are just reskins of bosses from previous games, and lifegem spam.
Dark Souls 3: No idea haven’t played it
Bloodborne: No idea haven’t played it
Sekiro: stuck with the same weapon throughout the entire game.
Feel free to correct me if you think anything different.
Cadillac is the Dark Souls of automobiles
2018? jesus christ time flies
Watching ray get more and more salty as he got further into the game was a delight
Blast from the past
Fun fact: Ray actually owns dark souls 2 and 3 so maybe in the very distant future he'll play those
when it comes to Souls games, I've always found that, if someone is going in totally blind to anything, it is best to have a guide there with you. Someone to guide your hips, someone who understands the subtle complexities of these games. Not to necessarily "backseat" but really just to point the player in the general direction of progression and help them understand what truly makes these games so special beyond people going "durrr game hard"
I kinda agree with you but in a lesser way. I only resort to a walkthrough if I’m completely stuck and can’t figure out how to progress (the four Kings Souls in DS2 being a perfect example) but when it comes to how to play the game (parry timing, what each of the stats do, how to get certain weapons, how to beat a boss) I stay completely blind.
16:04
*Stares in DS2*
I know it's a sack and not a paper bag but you still should've dubbed your guy "Sir Diddlez" after putting that sack on his head.
Thanks ray
Ily
51:53 oh hey, a Berserk reference!
I know it probably won't happen but I want to see Ray take on Sister Friede
Got less than half of his predict death count. Nice.
i feel oddly defensive about this game even though i only did it once with Sorcery after having looked up a guide to get super strong starting mage gear and pumped stats so i was broken AF then basically pew'd my way through
I love when people make another brainwashed light roller and ignoring his sufferings cause of that afterward )
Thanks a lot Ray!, I love your streams! 😁👍🏻
59:53 Nobody tell him about the Painted World.
Please tell me someone eventually told this poor man that having good rolls is way more beneficial than having a lot of armor.
All the turbo nerds triggered by the shirt lol
I swear he uploaded this before or I'm tweakin
No I'm with you on that a lot of these clips feel very familiar could have been on the monthly clips from back then but idk
It's here!
Oh so ray truly is a blind streamer for this game, gets invaded and doesn’t even notice the dark spirit prompt other than the sound cue tho, gotta love 20-20 vision amirite
Wow that was a bummer.
Honestly ray might like darksouls 3 because it has a lot less of the clunkyness and bullshit level design of dark souls 1. I enjoy dark souls 1 but i can see why someone wouldn't.
40:00 - I think I actually named a Minecraft world that...
I honestly wish he had played ds3 instead. It's so much better and I dont think he would have hated it as much
watching ray get killed by the invaders is priceless since they are all modders so there is no way to win
Especially Unknown Bane just popping in.
Look, as a huge fan of the Souls series both for story and gameplay, I will admit to it (particularly the first one and Demon Souls) having flaws that make it more difficult than it should be. 3 irons out a lot of those issues and has more quality of life features, which is nice.
It’s sometimes alarming how close ray and Tina think, because ray, Lovable as he may be, is a knuckleheadmcspazzaton, and Tina, well, isn’t.
Wait, 2018??? Oh my god, where has time gone???
Dark souls is essentially a NPC revenge simulator.
Amazingly well played for your first time.
Nice. Early morning spooks.
Finally, a Dark Souls comp without the stupid memes (looking at you, Owl)
Maybe the memes were stale, but it would only be about 10 times in a multi hour comp vs. Ray who's gonna pummel these compilations with ads every 10 min
No ads here
@@splunkmastah4609 I got 5 of them during the Nier compilation. Also I'm less hormonal now and Ray was reasonably correct
