@@Bubblemation I've beat ds1 twice, ds2 once, ds3 4 times onto my fifth and am halfway through bloodborne. The games aren't hard, get real. Honestly this comment gives me the vibe that you haven't played any. Sure they're harder if you're fatrolling all of the time like this guy, but if you actually have a planned build which I did on my first run the game isn't hard. That is the key to this game: just focus on a certain build when levelling up. Don't level every stat equally, pick a weapon/group of weapons you'd like to use and build around that. For example want to use large strength based weapons? Go for a strength build or perhaps even a quality build if you like quality based weapons. Want a sorcery based build? Level int and use int scaling weapons. The game is a lot harder if your build is all over the place and you don't do enough damage or your build is just poorly optimised in general.
I love making new characters in darksouls games, trust me after a while (maybe like 10-20 runs) you know where everything is by just knowing what area you're in I imagine that doing runs daily for stream will have that effect times 100

Yeah, as Beau Allen said, it’s just a learning curve. And that goes for pretty much all the Soulsborne games, although Bloodborne is a bit different due to the trick weapons and such. You should really play Dark Souls and Bloodborne. Even Demon Souls when the remake comes out. Worth it.

It makes his commentary absolutely hilarious, in a "this dude is so awesome, I'd love to play with him, or be his friend, or something.. Pen pal even," kind of a way.
It practically is. The only unintentional damage taken here was the mistimed jump at the bridge and consequently the hydra which was a gamble that paid off. Every other source of damage was calculated.
So looking back at this i never realized how awful Asmon looks here... he easily looks 15 pounds skinnier. He looks rough here compared to what he looks like now
At first I thought you were saying stamina was useless and no one should get it, and me and my heavily armored greatsword wielding character who can still roll were about to be angry.
- what? - why did he do that? - how is he not dead? - if he gets hit, he dies. - this took me a lot longer. - this happened to me too. - i was there too. - this is where i died. - there is no way he can do that. - how does he go so fast? - he just walks past them.
This is the only video of asmongold I ever watched, but I did it like 5 times. It's just pure greatness. Love you guys, Love you ellajaz, you a pure soul of the gaming world.
I think he didnt get the point of q speedrun. Like every single one of us knows how to skip/run through some areas without wasting time on mobs. Thats what i did in ds2 all the time i just run from boss room to boss room
@@jangofett4547 Yeah he's got to faking because the understanding he showed was impressively lacking. I haven't played the game and I caught on to most of what was happening
My favorite line was you mean this game could have just been 1 30mins live stream? Yes, if you dont count the 2000 hours played and the 280 failed runs it only took 35mins.
Speedrunners really are on another dimension. I'm in awe everyday tuning into Distortion 2. The speed, accuracy, perfection. it's fun to watch and i don't even speed run myself.

@@aptom203 if you watch the video, this game took asmon ten's of hours to beat, sometimes taking HOURS for one boss, and this guy just did it in 35 minutes I watched a speedrun of darksiders once, I played that game on high difficulty and died sooo much and took so long to even beat some "mobs" and in a speedrun you just sit there like "wait what did he just do" and have major brainlag
honestly I was like that when I first watched speedruns. If you just play the game normally, exploring and doing everything as intended; then seeing a speedrun like this is a huge mind fuck.
as Q_Eredaane says. The game took me tens of hours to beat as well, being stuck on almost every boss for at least an hour, often more, etc. If I, right after finishing my first playthrough, and doing the 30 minute "I'm awesome, yeah" celebratory song and dance, if I then went to watch this speedrun, I would be reacting about the same way.
@@q_eredaane4906 it's not just this video, though. Asmongold is a very very good world of warcraft warrior- ask him to do literally anything at all else and it's like a young child trying their own shoelaces for the first time.
Watching gamers who are unfamiliar with speedrunning watch it blind is always wonderful. You get desensitized to how little some of this stuff makes sense without the context of thousands of people working to optimize a game to perfection.
This so much. I think it's great that he picked up on so many details on the fly while obviously knowing very little about the run or speedruns in general. Desensitised is exactly the right word to describe the reaction of many people in this comment section.
Yeah, some games are still being optimized by speedrunners after 10+ years, like the old Mario and Zelda games that people are STILL finding new tricks for to this day. It's awesome.

This run is canon. That's how the Chosen Undead actually did it, in my mind.
The Chosen Undead is a Mary Sue, because that was OP as hell
He randomly flickered in and out of existence and then all of a sudden Gwynn died
Likemaddox local undead jumps off 10 cliffs and then god dies
Imagine if this was a no hit speedrun. Dude's mind would have been obliterated.
It practically is. The only unintentional damage taken here was the mistimed jump at the bridge and consequently the hydra which was a gamble that paid off. Every other source of damage was calculated.
The other guy was like "Oh yeah you dont know about that yet" the whole time☠️☠️

I guess he knows nothing, just like me
@@beeftastesliketoenails94 yeah nigggaaaaa
yeah he was mad annoying
@@michaelb.4571 yeah I liked your comment
You can tell this man plays mmos too much, “why would he go here? He is level 1”
11:55
The man has over 30,000 hours in WoW
Egg Spam WoW 👀
@@ChuckFinelyForever Yeah he started playing in 2006 and hasn't really played anything else until a few years ago
Egg Spam That’s probably why he was surprised at literally everything
This is the equivalent to watching a man realise his whole life was a lie
Perfectly said.
Especially when he beat the knight of Artorias in under a min. You could see all the internal struggling.
@@bloodyninen7 why? because guy like him played this game so many times that its only challenge that left for him :D
So looking back at this i never realized how awful Asmon looks here... he easily looks 15 pounds skinnier. He looks rough here compared to what he looks like now
Everyone else: oh he just knocked that enemy off the ledge.
Asmongold: What is this gravity you speak of?
Even doing that is harder than it looks. U can take an arrow to the back any second
Legend has it, that other guy that you can’t see is still giving useless information to this day.
That's mcuckle
that's seth rogen
Thats mcuck
Legend has it that other guy you can’t see is asmons best friend of 16 years lmao how about you shut the fuck up Ray.

Bro literally says “what the fuck” every single sentence
I've never even played Dark Souls...and im impressed
I just started playing it and I can tell you I knew nothing from this video 🤣
I’ve never played dark souls or watched this guy before and I loved it
you should, its a great game
Don't think I need to play this game after watching this Oo

Such insolence
The Most Important thing in Rpg game is Dodge 🤣
A Aulia A Althaf Passalowongi right!
I didn't either for the longest time then figured out that it's super satisfying, especially doing it consistently
@@AndiAlthaf well I guess it differs from game to game, but from what I learned from the games I played especially Kingdom Come, parry is important
@@blackstrand parry just like dodge bro that was i want to say actually
Speedrunner: *walks past bonfire*
Asmongold: and I took that personally
Speedrunner: walks
Solmongods: OMG HE IS SO FAST :O
The only commentary in this video is “oh my god”, “what the fuck”, and “oh yeah, you didn’t do this”. Top notch commentary....
haha so true but that shit blew me away to, so couldn't blame him
But it's genuine. What do you want? I think you want something way more arbitrary. This is not supposed to be detached commentary.
@@Dylan_Thomas1 maybe if he had some nolege of the speedrun it would be a bit resinable to watch it
@@specter7303 "resinable" xd
@@Dylan_Thomas1 i agree with you
16:41 "He only gets Endurance and Strength. Why isn't he getting stamina?"
*My head hurts from facepalming*
Same.
I'm hoping he was trying to say health but you never know
At first I thought you were saying stamina was useless and no one should get it, and me and my heavily armored greatsword wielding character who can still roll were about to be angry.
- what?
- why did he do that?
- how is he not dead?
- if he gets hit, he dies.
- this took me a lot longer.
- this happened to me too.
- i was there too.
- this is where i died.
- there is no way he can do that.
- how does he go so fast?
- he just walks past them.
Add mouth gaping and you have the entirety of his reaction on this
Then add dickhead being very passive aggressive in the background
Look at those hops
@@LiftYagami What why is the background guy a dickhead?
You forgot the word fuck
This is the only video of asmongold I ever watched, but I did it like 5 times. It's just pure greatness. Love you guys, Love you ellajaz, you a pure soul of the gaming world.
33:41 I love it how this is the only thing he understands in this whole run.
Literal gold.
everyone's first time watching a speedrun:
"HE DOESNT EVEN KILL THE MOBS"
I simply can't allow myself to not kill the mobs, it's stronger than me
I think he didnt get the point of q speedrun.
Like every single one of us knows how to skip/run through some areas without wasting time on mobs.
Thats what i did in ds2 all the time i just run from boss room to boss room
@@jangofett4547 Yeah he's got to faking because the understanding he showed was impressively lacking. I haven't played the game and I caught on to most of what was happening
@Sir Cat Serqet hahahahaa true
@@henrymccoy2306 yeaahh thats true too :) he acted like a boomer who never played a game before idk
24:15 “I thought I was a literal god” a few moments later... “huh, what’s a parry?!” 🙄
I feel like Asmond's mind devolves every time I hear him speak
"How is he so efficient? Like he must have been doing this hundreds of times?"
Yeah. That's...how speedruns work.
My favorite line was you mean this game could have just been 1 30mins live stream? Yes, if you dont count the 2000 hours played and the 280 failed runs it only took 35mins.
Ela has like 6000 hours is ds1 alone
12:02 - “You’re already like halfway through the game; it’s like 3 minutes.”
“Well, it’s been 12 minutes and 35 seconds.”
“That’s a long time.”
Wat.
nota*
Speedrunners really are on another dimension. I'm in awe everyday tuning into Distortion 2. The speed, accuracy, perfection. it's fun to watch and i don't even speed run myself.
Nobody:
Asmongold the entire video: 👁👄👁
10:11 “This took me a lot longer to do”
Understatement winner of all time.
i'm only in the comments to make sure someone said this
Speedruner: *Kills boss in 5 seconds*
Asmongold: "But how did he- But I-"
That's actually something to be surprised about
It's always so amazing when speedrunners break the world record while casually talking to their twitch chat
Asmon is in a perpetual state of first overconfidence, then wonder. He has the brain of an 8 year old, be that a boon or a curse.
just like how the people who get upset about this video have the brain of an 8 year old
"Local stoner discovers speedruns. More at six."
"and in other news, a young man on acid realized that all matter is merely energy condensed to a slow vibration, that we are all one consciousness experiencing itself subjectively, there is no such thing as death, life is only a dream, and we are the imagination of ourselves. Heres Tom with the Weather"
Lame joke considering he doesn’t smoke
@@StormDogg Hmm Bill Hicks. Haven't thought of him in a while nice
"There is the boar that killed me, this guy just ran past him"
"You think this god cares a out boars?"
The irony of committing hundreds of hours to beat something in 35 min
When you just got dark souls but your mom tells you you're going to your cousin's house in one hour
69 like
Asmon learns yhat blocking,parrying and lock on exists at the same time overwhelms him
And some jumps that have existed since the games first game out. He's genuinely ignorant to the series yet his response is supposed to be valued? I don't get it
And what s are lmao
@@ashenwuss1651 bruh moment
I mean, this response is humorous, and all humorous things are to be valued.
@@moonsalibi touchè
@Sylis TM I dont think he knew about the places you can jump and cut corners with
*Guy jumps over a small gap
Asmongold: "Oh my god, whatttt, howwww"
He's so efficient!
"hehe yeah you didn't know about that!"
Jumping in souls is hard and dude hit every one of them perfectly so ya it's pretty impressive.
OOOHHH, you don't know about this..!
"oh you don't know about this" ok Sherlock.
The part that kills me is when he says "he just- does what he wants" 😂
Is this guy for real? He sounds like he’s hamming it up for his audience.
I have been asking myself this for years, is Asmongold really as dumb as he seems? I still don't know.
@@aptom203 if you watch the video, this game took asmon ten's of hours to beat, sometimes taking HOURS for one boss, and this guy just did it in 35 minutes
I watched a speedrun of darksiders once, I played that game on high difficulty and died sooo much and took so long to even beat some "mobs" and in a speedrun you just sit there like "wait what did he just do" and have major brainlag
honestly I was like that when I first watched speedruns.
If you just play the game normally, exploring and doing everything as intended; then seeing a speedrun like this is a huge mind fuck.
as Q_Eredaane says. The game took me tens of hours to beat as well, being stuck on almost every boss for at least an hour, often more, etc.
If I, right after finishing my first playthrough, and doing the 30 minute "I'm awesome, yeah" celebratory song and dance, if I then went to watch this speedrun, I would be reacting about the same way.
@@q_eredaane4906 it's not just this video, though. Asmongold is a very very good world of warcraft warrior- ask him to do literally anything at all else and it's like a young child trying their own shoelaces for the first time.
Black Knight: "You cannot pass morta- OH FUUUUU.."
He looks so thin 4 years ago
RUclips: Wanna watch a guy watch another guy playing a game?
1,2 million people: sure
then someone makes a video of reaction to asmongold react to ds remastered speedrun.
Shut he fuck up with these comments
Friend in the background watching a guy watch another guy playing a game. Lol
The best part of watching this is watching Asmongold realize what a pea brain he actually is
Watching gamers who are unfamiliar with speedrunning watch it blind is always wonderful. You get desensitized to how little some of this stuff makes sense without the context of thousands of people working to optimize a game to perfection.
This so much. I think it's great that he picked up on so many details on the fly while obviously knowing very little about the run or speedruns in general.
Desensitised is exactly the right word to describe the reaction of many people in this comment section.
Yeah, some games are still being optimized by speedrunners after 10+ years, like the old Mario and Zelda games that people are STILL finding new tricks for to this day. It's awesome.
I'm convinced Asmon was acting stupid for this whole video.
22:26 "Cause if he gets hit he's dead." . . If.
Just don't get hit (:
Asmon's friend remind me of the classic cringy nerd highschool classmate that talks about things like he's living in a movie
Yes! People like that have a very specific way of talking and making jokes, and it's annoying af. Always cringe to the max.
Truman Show.
Dont worry, the Whole West ls in the same situation. The shock will be dramatic :P
Sounds like a know it all lmfao “OH I FORGOT U DONT ABOUT THIS ITEM” “OH YOU DONY KNOW THIS MECHANIC” “OH WIF DAT WEAPON U BEAT THE GAME DURRR DURR”
Its dumbo and smarty comming together
"He got hit. That's what happened to me."
why is this guy reacts to EVERYTHING in an any% speedrun like an caveman lmao
Because he is for real!
Speedrunner: Throws 3 black firebombs at the Asylum demon and kills him
Asmongold: ......What?
The...Fuck.....
"He just goes all into endurance and strength not even any stamina"
This guy 🤦♂️
🤦♂️😂
BRO
I never facepalmed so hard before and this is why i don't always watch blind playthrough
Wait wat??
@@crimsonstrykr endurance and stamina are the same thing
