      Dude spends so much time on WoW and no other game, that speedruns on a game as notoriously hard, massive, and diverse as Dark Souls is just too much for him to comprehend
      If he ever plays Dark Souls 3, imagine how he'd react to Nameless King, Midir, and basically any boss in general in 3

      @@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.

      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.

      As a former speed runner who had a third place on an old 3D platformer, I can say easily that when you're on a good run, you feel like it's a bad run when you see the splits. The aim is to try and get perfect splits (Sum of Best) but that's not likely to happen due to RNG.
      It's also a psychological thing, it helps to settle your nerves and relax you by psyching yourself down rather than up, when you feel like you're going great, you'll take more risks.
