First rule of Dark Souls: If you're ever invaded by a completely naked man with nothing but a dagger, run. He's more powerful than you'll ever be able to comprehend.
If you like to troll should get some white branch and start hiding...sometime they just cant find you its hilarious and funny specially you make the enemy able to atk invader
But I'll say this whenever I find something like a mimic i always write a note saying treasure ahead but be careful or something like that so if there's actual new players i can warn them because i know everyone has felt sting of the mimics Edit: march 6th The messages are also for people who are returning veterans
losing that huge chunk of souls is the most freeing feeling because you can finally just start trying shit out instead of playing it super safe to retrieve them everytime.
Losing large chunks of souls doesn't feel freeing bc in many cases you try to get them back. It's only freeing when u are able to spend the souls, then go back out into the world with none on you to lose
@@maggie937they are referring to when you’re doing a souls run, trying to get back to your death to retrieve your souls over and over, but then you die before you can recover them. That’s the feeling. The feeling of being freed from the cycle.
Well, isn't that the whole point of armor? You can literally beat the game wearing a loincloth. Getting hit by the boss still takes a large chunk of your health away and you receive like three hits from the boss and you are done. Armor makes no difference, just use a shield and don't get hit.
@@samr9457 It still kills in 2 or 3 hits instead of one shot you. Sooooo...I don’t see difference. At least you can make yourself looks like a badass and mind not of the stats.

I figured out through trial and error that you should always level up Health to 50, and find an actual good armor set, before you touch any other stat. That is the absolute biggest factor in helping to bring the game's difficulty down to a relatively more manageable level.
This perfectly encapsulates my first experience with souls games. Overconfidence, getting my shit kicked in, learning the basics, overconfident again, more shit kicked in, leveling and upgrading gear way beyond the point I thought the game expected to me, more kicking me and the shit therein, getting more and more frustrated as I die and more souls were on the line until I lose them all, continuing the game mostly out of spite, rage quitting, getting back into it with no idea what I was doing. Then realizing I just finished the tutorial, and begin to understand what exactly I've committed to playing. Just perfect.
Yeah I spoke those words the second he said “teach me your ways”. Funny how dark souls turns us all into masochists seeking that cathartic release of dopamine that comes from turning countless tragedies into a single victory. This game will either make you subconsciously learn its rules or you will end up rage quitting. Honestly though, sometimes I wish I had just looked up a RUclips video on a boss, rather then dying 50 times, 5 of which the boss being at 10%hp.
Yeah, he could have died further away from the knight and coming back to take his souls without the knight noticing him, but instead he died in the worst place, behind the knight, happened to me so much x)
0:57 NPC still attacking even though the player's dead is a great tiny detail in this video and also Hamish is the rudest Crestfallen Warrior i've ever seen xD
If you can't kill a target in one hit yet, always lock on to them and alternate between blocking/dodging and striking, while making sure no other enemies gang up on you.
Locking on in Dark souls 3 is absolute garbage. I have boss right in front of me, I press lock on and the camera just turns 90 degrees away and the boss kills me from behind. Happens like almost every bossfight.
@@kalelid4 That’s fair, it’s also highly situational and dependent on person. I find it a lot easier to hit some targets while locked on, but always take it off to do mobility.

Ive been an active gamer for 20 years now. I came into this game way to damn confident. An hour into dark souls 3 and i still cant kill the first boss. So I looked up how to change difficulty..... HAHAHAHAHAHA.
if youre somehow still stuck on the first boss, id recommend playing as a knight for your first play-through, because casters require you to know more about the stats and where important gear/npcs are that you most likely wont know the first time through, specifically id recommend a pure strength or quality build strength if you want to feel powerful 1-shotting everything, and quality if you just want to test out most of the weapons you come across, secondly you need to realize dark souls is about taking it slow and not worrying too much about mistakes, 90% of deaths ive seen clips from are always people rushing into grab an item off the ground and getting ambushed or overwhelmed by too many enemies, take your time to spot enemies before you get within aggro distance, look for traps that you can use against the enemies, aggro one at a time if possible, and lastly, dont go hollow, that is to say dont quit the game dark souls is about perseverance, dont quit the game after losing once or twice try again until you succeed, it may take a while but you will eventually defeat that boss or tough enemy you only truly lose when you give up
@@sleepyppl4286 Pure strength is fun. I might do another deathless run, but with a heavy claymore build. I've done most of them with an ultra greatsword, and one with a heavy millwood axe. But now it's time for something new. I heard it's a good strength weapon, and you literally get it at the start, so things will be a bit more convenient for me as well.
You can gonk the game with your friends but don't be that guy who disconnects when he gets on the wrong end of an invasion. Some people think that's what kind of game this is
When he was talking about the ancient technique with the invader, I thought he was going to alt-F4 & disconnect xD - Dark Souls - Prepare to Alt-F4 edition.
His speeches of "I have gotten better" are peak comedy if you have ever touched darksouls. Cockiness is, right next to gravity, one of the main reason for a darksouls death and I can't take a word serious if I can already predict his fate perfectly. Like this could be an actual epic scene but I cant stop laughing
I watched this video before ever playing a souls game. Not long after, I started my first with Elden Ring. A few months later, I'm back to re-watch this. Oh wow. Now I can actually empathize and appreciate everything about this!!
@7erong3mas I probably will, eventually. After this time passed, I proceeded to do NG+ 5 or 6 times for Elden Ring. I've never done that for any other game. So, I'm sure I'll like the other recent ones too.
@@HectorGonzo-bx4ny I actually haven't done the DLC yet and can't right now. But I absolutely will once I can. The cool thing is, I still have it to look forward to. Kind of like when people say they are jealous of not being able to experience something for the first time again RIGHT NOW. So when that day comes, I'll have that /brand new/ magic to enjoy! That is anyway how I can justify not having played it yet, lol.
It's just that after playing dark souls I wanted every game to give me a challenge I wanted to feel good when I defeated a boss but the I found out neo pets is a kids game
@@beserk6285 I'm just gonna ignore your name and ask you, if you've ever played DOOM or DOOM Eternal on Ultra-Nightmare. Could be a challenge for you, perhaps.
@@FluffySylveonBoi You can get invaded by randos, but only in certain circumstances. In this case, when you've buffed yourself with Embers in DS3, or if you return to being Human in DS1. While Embered/Human, you can summon helpers in CoOp. So it's rarely actually a 1 on 1 if you DO get invaded, and you can enter boss fights to force invaders away. So you can only be invaded if you allow yourself to be invaded.
@@FluffySylveonBoine solution if you want a more solo experience, the games usually have an option to play offline. You won’t have to worry about other players invading, but there is the occasional npc invaders if human/embered. To make up for not being able to co-op with other players against bosses, some boss fights have npc helpers you can summon instea.
@@FluffySylveonBoiJust finished my first playthrough of DS1 with 100% of my play time offline. Absolutely great experience (except lost izalith, that place sucks).

@Murtons haha, it's a good game, but my work schedule went nuts (when you work for a shipping company lockdowns mean an incredible increase in volume, and having 3 kids means that my time to play is quite limited.) I may have some time to really get into it this upcoming week though.
The Roly Poly is by far one of my favorite skits of all time. I showed it to a bunch of my gamer friends and family, and by far the most frequent comment was "I feel personally attacked by the 'Get Gud!'" I'm sure we've all heard that WAY too much, lol.
They need to do a few more: “Useless NPC summon” “Favorite NPC going hollow” “Mushrooms” “Invading successfully/gank squad” “Cat bro forest” (see above) “Boss summons you to fight” “NG+”
-Getting invaded not seeing the invader and getting shot of a bridge all of sudden - cursed :) - trying to make a jump but falling because who needs a separate jumpbutton in darksouls - welcome to anor London, I HOPE YOU LIKE ARROWS

14:57 this right here has made me put down a souls game on numerous occasions. But ive always picked it back up in a day or two. I fuckin love these games, they keep me humble.
Those moments emphasize just how important leveling Health actually is, along with having a really good armor set, so you can actually tank a backstab like that and have a chance to retaliate.
Perfect representation of when I first started , skipping the tutorials thinking it was like other games. Dark Souls is a soul crushing simulation game. Great job you captured the feel and everything lol.

This perfectly encapsulates my first experience with souls games. Overconfidence, getting my shit kicked in, learning the basics, overconfident again, more shit kicked in, leveling and upgrading gear way beyond the point I thought the game expected to me, more kicking me and the shit therein, getting more and more frustrated as I die and more souls were on the line until I lose them all, continuing the game mostly out of spite, rage quitting, getting back into it with no idea what I was doing. Then realizing I just finished the tutorial, and begin to understand what exactly I've committed to playing. Just perfect.

Yeah I spoke those words the second he said “teach me your ways”. Funny how dark souls turns us all into masochists seeking that cathartic release of dopamine that comes from turning countless tragedies into a single victory. This game will either make you subconsciously learn its rules or you will end up rage quitting. Honestly though, sometimes I wish I had just looked up a RUclips video on a boss, rather then dying 50 times, 5 of which the boss being at 10%hp.

The moment he circeled around the knight I knew he would lose his souls for good. Haha. Nailed it.

He made the fatal mistake of not locking on to his first target.
If you can't kill a target in one hit yet, always lock on to them and alternate between blocking/dodging and striking, while making sure no other enemies gang up on you.
@@NexusKin Basically close combat
Locking on in Dark souls 3 is absolute garbage. I have boss right in front of me, I press lock on and the camera just turns 90 degrees away and the boss kills me from behind. Happens like almost every bossfight.
I always free aim in the games, I’m better at dodging that way.
@@kalelid4 That’s fair, it’s also highly situational and dependent on person.
I find it a lot easier to hit some targets while locked on, but always take it off to do mobility.

Yah the difficulty is renamed Uninstall just click that to change it
if youre somehow still stuck on the first boss, id recommend playing as a knight for your first play-through, because casters require you to know more about the stats and where important gear/npcs are that you most likely wont know the first time through, specifically id recommend a pure strength or quality build strength if you want to feel powerful 1-shotting everything, and quality if you just want to test out most of the weapons you come across, secondly you need to realize dark souls is about taking it slow and not worrying too much about mistakes, 90% of deaths ive seen clips from are always people rushing into grab an item off the ground and getting ambushed or overwhelmed by too many enemies, take your time to spot enemies before you get within aggro distance, look for traps that you can use against the enemies, aggro one at a time if possible, and lastly, dont go hollow, that is to say dont quit the game dark souls is about perseverance, dont quit the game after losing once or twice try again until you succeed, it may take a while but you will eventually defeat that boss or tough enemy you only truly lose when you give up

@@sleepyppl4286 Pure strength is fun. I might do another deathless run, but with a heavy claymore build. I've done most of them with an ultra greatsword, and one with a heavy millwood axe.

You can gonk the game with your friends but don't be that guy who disconnects when he gets on the wrong end of an invasion. Some people think that's what kind of game this is
When he was talking about the ancient technique with the invader, I thought he was going to alt-F4 & disconnect xD - Dark Souls - Prepare to Alt-F4 edition.
That or lag switch
I was expecting that as well.
Or close the wifi
i thought he would run but that is the joestar ancient technique
His speeches of "I have gotten better" are peak comedy if you have ever touched darksouls.

It had the opposite effect on me, when I saw it is not pure single player, but you can get invaded by randos, I rather stay away.
@@FluffySylveonBoi You can get invaded by randos, but only in certain circumstances. In this case, when you've buffed yourself with Embers in DS3, or if you return to being Human in DS1. While Embered/Human, you can summon helpers in CoOp. So it's rarely actually a 1 on 1 if you DO get invaded, and you can enter boss fights to force invaders away. So you can only be invaded if you allow yourself to be invaded.
@@FluffySylveonBoine solution if you want a more solo experience, the games usually have an option to play offline. You won’t have to worry about other players invading, but there is the occasional npc invaders if human/embered. To make up for not being able to co-op with other players against bosses, some boss fights have npc helpers you can summon instea.
