Elden Ring is an action role-playing game played in a third-person perspective with gameplay focusing on combat and exploration; it features elements similar to those found in other games developed by FromSoftware, such as the Souls series, Bloodborne, and Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice. Director Hidetaka Miyazaki explained that players start with a linear opening but eventually progress to freely explore the Lands Between, including its six main areas, as well as castles, fortresses, and catacombs scattered throughout the open world map
No maidens?
Ye tarnished is maidenless!
Alexander is all the maidens we need...

When is the next ep up?
Watched the entire Bloodborne playthrough, just finished the 6-hour Dark Souls 1 playthrough, now I NEED to re-watch this
Can’t wait for the dlc announcement tomorrow

@Kavetion no u
I’m so unbelievably happy that Jack is playing this. Partially because I love watching him play souls games, but mostly because I need someone to explain what’s going on to me.
@Beast v2🔥cringe
@Kavetion also cringe
@@hangout7811 stop replying to bots bro. listen to jack, he's the one who said it from the beginning. i'm telling so many ppl
Honestly I thought for the longest time that the Tarnished were meant to be like fallen warriors that were brought back to life cause of the opening cutscene where you see a lot of the Round Table hold NPCs and then you see a MASSIVE tomb-like place of a lot of covered bodies and the narrator is like "NOW RISE TARNISHED" or whatever but it turns out the tarnished were banished from the Erdtree's Blessing or something and are back because of the Shattering. Like the first one makes a lot of sense but the actual one is oh yeah the Erdtree didn't like you so you were kicked out of the Lands Between but now you're back go be Elden Lord.
So you like being held by the hand to play a game??
I’m so hyped to watch this whole series in one night for two reasons
1. I fuckin love elden ring
2. I fuckin love jackcepticeye
This is gonna be awesome
Omg so badass
Jack uploading a 2 hour video that wasn't a live stream, amazing. Really goes to show how big the game is for Jack to do this. This is gonna be the start like like a 20 video series 2 hour long each I hope.

Jack: "everyone tries to prove something by fighting the tree sentinel right out the gate"
Me: guilty as charged
I had an intresting experience with tree sentinel. I didn’t try and fight him, but I was in awe of his armor and got a little too close. Next thing you know there is a bosses health bar at the bottom of my screen and I’m screaming as I run for my dear life.
I picked the wretch origin, and thought it was a mandatory boss fight. Ya I died
I was super rusty with souls games when Elden Ring dropped so I uhh maybe spent like 4 hours doing just that.
@@Speeplonk i had never played souls games before elden ring and now i just want to play more of them
Right there with ya. Managed to kill it after 6 hours of game time and 3 weeks of being upset with it not realizing there's AN ENTIRE WORLD LITERALLY SURROUNDING YOU.

Man it's so refreshing starting another person's playthrough with them already having experienced the game. I don't have to watch another person wander aimlessly, learn the mechanics, and try to fight things that are obviously way out of their league. I can already tell this will be a quick and efficient series that we'll all enjoy very much!
eh, we have to start somewhere, no one's perfect from the beginning 🤷🏻♀️
I agree! It is nice to see someone who knows what they are doing for a game like this.
Difficult games are better to watch someone who's beaten it, easy games are better if they haven't played it before.
Well, I disagree completely.
It’s fun watching a personality you like discover new things in a game like this and see their honest reaction whether it’s fear, surprise or wonder.
It’s fun watching them wander aimlessly then fall into an epic boss fight or happen upon a mysterious character or location for the first time.
It’s fun watching them grow and learn the mechanics and fight things way out if their league. Some of my favourite videos are of Jack doing just that.
I like this video, but I would have loved to see Jack’s first reactions as he explored the game. It’s always refreshing and never gets old. But I completely understand why he wanted to experience this game for himself and don’t blame him.
@@makasete30 100% agree! Seeing someone's reactions for the first time makes it so much fun to watch

Idk why, but i keep forgetting that his name isn’t Jack, it’s Sean lol
I agree that is one of the reasons I watch him
Any timestamps for the lore??

@@nurvis3489 Apparently that happens when the video is new.
Holy shit, you got verified?
I love the writing of Elden Ring, they give the Tarnished so much personality, between reactions being commented on by npcs and actually having dialog options instead of just yes or no now the Tarnished gives such an air headed and somehow innocent vibe, which makes sense considering how the Tarnished is so often referred to as young

if you haven’t played souls before he is, took me 4 hours, jack is also good.
Get good or uninstall the game is soulsbourns moto I guess

Keep in mind for most of the early bosses, the challenge is up to how many smithing stones you get for your weapons, because if you explore well, you can get your weapon way higher level than "supposed" and in turn do a whole ton more damage. Bleed builds are also pretty powerful, especially with dual wielding.
Obviously though, dodging/blocking properly is dependant on your skill level, and generally that will still be the biggest thing to determine whether or not you'll win.
That guy he said we shouldn't die to at the beginning.... the one with the spear.... yeah um I've died to that a few to many times.
I like how the more colourful aesthetic makes the enemies and bosses more defined. In many of the other games although they still had cool designs, they would end up just looking like a mass of grey making it harder to appreciate their design.
Agreed, FromSoft really made a thought out and awesome masterpiece with Elden Ring
I think what they did with ds3 was very artistic, the grey world being a symbolism of how decayed its become. It makes scenes like leaving the catacombs to see the city of irythil much more memorable, yet I still love the colorful world they made with elden ring
@Kavetion i will look into where i asked
DON'T read my name! :D :D :D
I’ve listened to this series 3 times while also completing my own 3 play throughs I’ve did each main ending. This was my first FromSoft game and it’s overall my favorite game I’ve ever played. Thank you so much for creating a series and helping me enjoy the game more.
If i start ng+ can i go back to my og world?

But ng+ is easy really. Im now at ng++++ and it starts to become auite hard again. So it should noy cause ypu much trouble going i to ng+ and quickly catch up to where you were when you started it.
Finally someone agrees that elden ring surpassed bloodborne
@@tasguj1 how?
I'm a well-versed veteran of FromSoft's work by now (first got a taste for it with _Armored Core: For Answer,_ if anyone cares), but what genuinely surprised me on my first playthrough was how much _fun_ I was having doing _nothing._ I was already at Level 50 when I remembered there was a castle I was supposed to be storming -- 15 levels later, I _still_ keep finding excuses to explore instead.
I killed radahn at lv 58 and cheesed godrick with rotten stray that I found in caelid from exploring. scarlet rot tick damage helped me a lot
Man I miss the entire armored core series. I wish they built another.
That’s the beauty of it :)
@@thomasedwards4315 Apparently they're working on _Armored Core 6_ right now. Not much to show yet, but Miyazaki's confirmed it's not just rumors.
@@goofyahhh254 Considering Margit went down like a sack of spuds when I got around to facing him, I'm sure I could flatten Godrick without much trouble. I'm just having more fun exploring the rest of the map and finding new nooks and crannies and smile-inducing surprises like the one at Murkwater Cave.

I got so jealous when he talked about how he would just explore irl and find old dilapidated buildings. I've always wanted to explore and find things like that.
Urbex is super cool. Been doing it with an organized (well, self-organized) group for the past year and a half or so. Coolest place we've been to was an abandoned military outpost with a bunker beneath it up on a mountain. Honestly, if you are interested in Urbex, find a friend or two who you think could enjoy it too, bring flashlights, basic first aid and phones, and then look up online for cool places around your area. There are lots of Urbex communities everywhere, and humans being humans - we abandon our stuff as quickly as we create it, you can bet there are abandoned structures around you no matter where you are. Just make sure to read about the place if any info is available, to know what sorts of dangers might be inside (say, collapses, wildlife, hobos who use the place as a drug den? I've encountered all, lol.) Otherwise, if there is no info available, and honestly even if there is - keep your guard up, be careful with every step and don't be too ballsy. And, ofc, always use your head. Don't want to be in an abandoned basement while it's raining outside, for instance. Awful place to drown, some old hospital's maintenance tunnel.
Stop by Connecticut. Got a lot of those.

This just won Game of the year Award...... Jack wasn't wrong about it being the best game in last 5 years

Jack two hours in the game: i'm gonna kill a dragon
Been playing as a female Warrior and noticed something about the dialogue: When Melina first shows up on Torrent, her lines slightly change depending on your chosen gender.
I love little details like that.
I will say this forever and ever, one of my favorite parts of elden ring is how the boss fights will consistently make you say "oh, shit..." They always make you wonder how the hell you're supposed to defeat this absolute abomination of god in front of you, and when you finally get it, you celebrate and woop and holler, because it was hard as fuck.
My boyfriend is currently helping me through my playthrough, first ever Souls game. He kept encouraging me as I got my ass beat by Margit, saying it took him close to 15 tries to defeat him. It got so frustration that I actually had to stop before I started crying but I GOT HIS ASS THE NEXT TIME!!!! It only took me 10 tries, which he told me isn't that much. I also got Godric down to 1/3 health my first try
@@vee7330 yea my first souls game was dark souls 3 but I went through it with my dad Elden ring was the first one I soloed an now I’ve played the crap out of it and now I’m quite good it took a lot of time to kill the bosses on my first play through
Well that's every souls game
Fucking Margit, I got the game four days ago, and I only just today beat Margit
I needed to get Sorcerer Rogier to help at the start, then I lowered his HP to about 20%, summoned those Spirit Wolves, had them chip away for a bit while I threw fire pots, and after that it was all a matter of skill and what little game knowledge I had
Landing that final hit felt like I’d just conquered an entire kingdom, and it was the first boss
I beat Godrick today for the first time and it felt amazing, also I agree about the bosses being scary, this is the first game in a while we're I've been genuinely scared to fight bosses. 😅

I completely agree, I love to watch these playthroughs. I have been watching GabSmolders do the entire playthrough and it is fun and great quality but I had been hoping he would do a playthrough just to watch a different perspective and build!
You should try playing one of the games with a walkthrough. I used to not be able to beat Dark Souls but I watched a walkthrough and haven’t needed one in any of the other games. But it doesn’t have to be for you and that’s okay
Jack's amazing gameplay aside, I absolutely love how the editor does this small transitions and effects for example in 24:37 how jack does the 4 combo attack it switches into another scene where he does the same attack seamlessly is fucking amazing. Mad props to the editor

Seán having a neurodivergent revelation is far too relatable. As someone else who had a diagnosis of neurodivergence in adulthood, looking back on your childhood/past and seeing how you fit all the signs and everything is pointing directly to being neurodivergent. The feeling of "Wow, I've had this all my life." It's like a plot twist. There's foreshadowing, the whole 9 yards.
This, had my diagnosis last year and finally (important) people recognise that life ís harder for me, because of the consequences of it. Not because i dont want to do stuff...
People who dont recognise it, are not important anymore
@@kathyhalters4288 That is another thing as well. Ableism affects the neurodivergent, no matter if they choose to acknowledge it or not. And that is the importance of being aware and having words to describe the experiences. To take that away is to take away the basis of problem solving.
@@Envrionmela the biggest ableist appears to be me though. I have to unlearn all those things, because i keep repeating it in my mind.
So Yeah, the ableism is so ingrained for a lot of us neurodivergent, we became part of the problem...
@@kathyhalters4288 very true. That’s another big thing about having the benefit of hindsight. Is how it shows that the times we’re hard on ourselves for being neurodivergent is a reflection of the behaviour shown to us in out developmental years.

Elden Ring is my first entry into the "Souls-type" games and I have LOVED every minute of it.

I hope these videos get more people to see just how amazing this game is and not to be afraid of it's difficulty.
It is a pretty good starting souls game
since it's difficulty is entirely on you and your build
it gives a lot of option to play around.
I needed to hear this, because I wanted elden ring but thought it would be too difficult
@@CrumbsOG Mind you, the game is still hard. Especially the endgame, the difficulty spike there was enormous to the point where even Souls series veterans like myself struggled a lot in this game. However, I will let you know that only a single endgame boss is true bullsh*t in that it is just poorly designed with no redeeming values; all the other endgame bosses, even if they are bullsh*t at times, are still fun to fight for the most part. Here's some advice to make the game more manageable for you: make sure to have at least 50 points in health by the endgame, make sure to not solely rely on a single weapon because not every weapon is good in every scenario, and check the descriptions of the items you pick up, some have some crazy useful abilities you might not know about otherwise. Good luck!

I love this game cause just in the beginning you get a sense of grandiosity and awe inspiring feeling when you just stop and look around as you realize you can go there and appreciate that even during these dark times of video games there are still people out there who care about video games and don’t just give us unreasonable things to play it like I just love it
Jack talking about summons made me remember how mad i was fighting the bloodhound and struggling then learning that if you talked to blaidd and started his quest you can summon him during the fight and make it so much easier
I DID THIS! Fought that bitch 10 times, met blaidd 5 hours later, and the ease of the battle made me gawk
DON'T read my name! :D :D :D
I didn't know about that the first time I fought him, but I beat him easily enough as a sorcerer. Magic is a beast in this game.
When I realized the howling in the ruins was Blaidd on my second time through, I looked it up online and followed that quest chain. I'll definitely be doing it that way from now on, just because it's fun to see Blaidd in action and makes the fight much simpler.
I've only played the tiniest bit of this game, and it's been a ton of fun. The combat is so clean and the visuals are gorgeous. I had a really funny moment where the lady shows up and I turned to my friend and said "is that Merlina from Sonic and the Black Knight" because they've both got the hooded sorceress thing going on, and then it turns out her name is Melina which is literally one letter off... I laughed so hard at that tiny coincidence.

Surprisingly, Elden Ring is much more forgiving in terms of "softlocking" yourself out of side quests than previous souls games. Instead of just rendering a quest undoable when you do something a lil too soon, Elden Ring mostly just automatically skips stages of side quests or simply allows you to do them whenever you want (no rush or anything). Pretty neat
good for me because I manage to do everything in the worst order possible, going to the hardest areas first and working backwards somehow

Just finished his Bloodborne playthrough a couple weeks ago, and was so excited to see this in my feed. Haven't watched anyone else yet, just heard talk about it, and that Jack has already played it and just sharing it with us now has made me unreasonably happy. XD Bloodborne's playthrough was a delight to watch him have fun with something familiar and already solved, so I can't wait to start this!
Me too :D though I've seen trailers for Elden Ring bc of ads before lol but I wasn't complaining, the trailer is super cool 💀
Jack it has been a long time 10 years to be exact. Thank you for still posting, you helped me with my bad days (years) before and now you still make me smile and laugh my ass off. cheers to you Mr. Top of the morning
Sean: "I _think_ these are a reference to _Berserk._ FromSoft games have a lot of references to _Berserk_ in them."
Blaidd: "My lupine ears are burning again."
There was also a massive shrine/memorial to the author I heard.
@@Legendary_Detective-Wobbuffet A fitting tribute, given the series' influence on the _Souls_ series.
I purposely avoided any playthroughs, memes, clips, and even gameplay trailers until I had a chance to play. I'm so happy I got the chance to enjoy this absolutely gorgeous game
DON'T read my name! :D :D :D
@@ChadButtowski weirdo
Yea I had no hype for this at all didn't see anything bought it and absolutely love it. Gave me Shadow of colossus vibes as well.
Sean: "DO I LOOK LIKE A POSTMAN?"
Me: Even if you did, Sean, SHE WOULDNT KNOW WOULD SHE!?"
HAHAHHA
MY EXACT REACTION 🤣
I want exactly what Jack wants in video games, like the giants and massive monsters, that's why fantasy I find really cool
The part where Sean had no health and still killed the boss had me on the edge of my SEAT! Holy CRAP that cool! This game is so immersive I had fun just watching it!
Literally screamed with him!
@@Vick07 SAME OMG, I fist bumped the sky when the enemy went down lol
Watching someone else play a video game and playing it yourself gives you the same endorphins.
@@therandomshow_ I DID TO LMAO
Bro slaying tough bosses is the biggest reason I like metroidvanias (especially DS games it’s got like the perfect setting and everything) and the only thing cooler than killing a boss is killing it when you’re a hit away from death and you’re just hyper focused and the adrenaline is pumping, and I can feel all that bleeding over watching him fight.
Aside from the game, which I'm so happy to see that you're playing on the channel and that I've enjoyed so much, I'm glad that you finally got an ADHD diagnostic, I personally had suspected that I had OCD for the last 15 years, and a week or two ago I got a diagnostic, and I know exactly what you mean, it feels absolutely amazing to finally know after thinking you have it for so long and just not knowing at all. Keep up the good work, I'm hoping for so much more like this, I absolutely adore your mostly unedited playthrough videos.
Well did you have it
@@vl_0223 I do, I probably should've included that lol
Do u mean diagnosis
“I’m not trying to fight Tree Sentinel right away. I’m not trying to prove something by spending 4 hours trying to beat him right away.”
Jack, there is no need to attack us like that, man.
Literally. I stayed up late into the night, sleep deprived, fighting the fucker four 4 hours and didn't kill him.
DON'T read my name! xD
I have Asperger’s, was diagnosed adhd before they finally corrected the misdiagnosis. I’ve been a huge fan of your channel since I was a kid and a huge nerd on giant mythos; Ettins, Titans, Jötnar, Fomorians and many more from many different cultures. Our family can trace Giant ancestry from Ulster Ireland, “McGrath” is ours but only one spelling of many others; “MaGrath,McGraw,Makrayth,McCreath or McCreagh, MacCraw and many more that I’m sure I haven’t found yet.
What life has taught me is live for magic and don’t let depressed assholes govern who you are or where you’ll go, it’s worked for me and I hope it works for you as well. Let your light shine bright as the sun and may all of you and your loved ones days be blessed and many. Erin go bragh❤️🇮🇪
I’ve got like almost done 170 hours on one character haven’t even finished the game yet because I’ve been trying to find everything I possibly can.
Elden Ring is so good
Fucking same, not knocking jack, but how the living shit has he beat it 5 times?! I know others have too that many times at this point, but christ lol I feel ya
@@Necromorph790 I have beaten it three times with a total of 150 hours. I might be missing content but I have calculated that you technically only need to beat 10 (8 depending on what events you trigger). So yeah you can beat it pretty quickly if you know what you are doing.
As a souls veteran my first main playthrough where I 100%’d (ish) the map was about 120 hours I believe!
Hes a god at these games too so I feel like he woulda taken the same amount of time on his first run, then his other runs he would have focused more on questing for his specific intended builds and not clearing every single enemy and grabbing every item.
@@Necromorph790 after your first playtrough, you'll just skip most stuff because it's totally useless and just do the main quests
lol same im about 150 hrs and still have a lot to do, its really addicting
We've waited so patiently for this. This is the playthrough of Elden Ring I've been looking forward to the most
Tbh I just assumed he had already uploaded a playthrough. Tried to find his the other day and was FLOORED it wasnt up yet
Very very excited for this too!
same
Just finished Gab's playthrough of this last night, which was amazing. So excited for an upload of it on this channel. You two have very different gaming styles and I love when you both do a game and I get to see it from the different points of view. So excited to go through the game again!
DON'T read my name! :D :D :D
"I have tons of maidens! They go to a different school!" 😂😂😂 I'm weak
Jack: first boss is not to tricky
Me: spending 5 hours on the first boss 😭
remember, he's actually played the game 250 hours.
This game makes me so sad
well i give you the best of luck
I was stuck on him for 2 days. when he died it was euphoric
@@thezestylime0989 how? that guy was actually easier than the birds and most of the mini bosses
Finally, I’ve been playing this game so much and I’ve felt like I’ve missed out on understanding lore so much and I’ve been hoping for Sean’s let’s play so I can learn the lore from it. Oh yeah also, Sean, if you ever see this!!! In my experience the crafting is great for golden pickled foul foot and even BETTER to me, crafting Exalted Flesh for your boss runs. Think of it like your substitute for Bloodborne’s Beast Blood Pellets
What do you mean by not understanding lore, elden ring is a standalone game
@@halloweenfan158 what?
@@halloweenfan158 You do know that even if Elder ring is a standalone game it can still have lore??
@@AlliBalli_1 OP said that they’ve felt like they missed out on so much lore, implying that there’s games that are connected so I pointed that it is a standalone game, and that OP from playing the game will get all the lore
@@halloweenfan158 nah he meant in his playthrough he might have missed stuff so watching someone who’s really big into lore when playing souls games like Jack would be helpful
hearing jack talk about shadow of the colossus is a blast from the past. I remember him gushing about that game YEARS ago. then he finally played it on the channel and the series was amazing.
i remember my dad played shadow of the colossus way back when i was younger. the og mind you, for ps2. when a remaster came out a little while ago, it brought back vague memories. i dont dare touch that game, to preserve the fondly vague idea of what still think that game looks like.
Listen jack I know you’re going through some things but idk if you will see this but keep your head up and I’ve also watched this like 10 times. Definitely your best play through and thank you for being here throughout the years.
Lord Haight: "My fort lies to the south"
Jack: *Looks east* "There it is"
I love how you can see that the guy at the start of the castle has lost the lower left of his arm and just has the sleeve dangling as he attacks, because Godrick probably took it either for himself or one of the Grafted Scions. And as far as I can tell, it's unique to his character model, despite sharing one with a common enemy type. Great little detail.
Jack: beaten the game ~5 times after around 250 hours
Me: hasn't beaten the game once after nearly 500 hours
(Edit (5/4/22)) Me again: after 569 hours (nice), has finally gotten around to beating Elden Ring
Congratulations you have been selected among the shortlisted winner's for the ongoing Ps5 giveaway 👆👆👆👆...
Jack is a true gamergod confirmed
Damn what have you been doing for 500 hours?!
@@TheBakingYeast Mainly? Having too much fun with the character creator
This is me as well, haha
I’ve just finished watching you play “Bloodbourne” and you mentioned this game so much, I had to start watching this. I don’t even play games. It’s nice to see that behind every RUclips creator is a passionate personality who enjoys the games and what makes a good game work.
You know, with how many backstabs Jack's been pulling off, I'm surprised he hasn't gone to the Death Touched Catacombs yet. The thing he gets from beating that boss heals you a little whenever you pull off a critical strike.
A little? That talisman made me darn near immortal till I hit Leyndell
1:01:15 To anyone who missed this interaction and doesnt have the Spirit Calling Bell, youre not locked out from using Spirit Ashes! You can purchase one from the Twin Maiden Husks for a pretty cheap price.
"I'd be a great Elden Lord. I'd bring back topless Tuesday."
That's it. He's got my vote!
havent tuned into you in years. this game is a masterpiece and im so glad you thought so also. you likely wont see this but i appreciate you
I like that you emphasize that people can play games the way they want to. I'm the type of person that keeps games on easy mode because I play games to relax, not get super frusterated because the game is on normal difficulty and I'm not that good.
Jack before playing Elden Ring: “Bloodborne was the best game ever.”
Jack after playing Elden Ring: “Move on over.”
Given that Bloodborne came out seven years ago, I think he'll still have Bloodborne higher. He's beaten Elden Ring at least twice.
Bloodborne story is by far better
Thats why you should never proclaim a game as the best ever no matter how much you like it
@@kubobetterrelax7435 it's also had 6-7 years to culminate. Once any DLC comes out and we make more connections Elden Ring will likely be up there, don't know about better though, but Bloodborne was treated pretty similarly back in the day
@@Cybersomnia True. The game-play and weapon variety of ER is much better but the story doesn't capture my imagination in the same way. From the get go the aesthetic and world of Bloodborne was very rich in lore. The narrative was quite unique and complex but easy to understand once you got a picture of the world.
Can’t wait to see more of the adventures of jack and dinklebamp on their journey to become elden lord I wish good luck to you foul tarnished
Jack: Do I LOOK like a postman?
Blind Girl: ………..
Really appreciate that you played it through before going back to play again and make this video for your channel. The insight that you are able to give and the lore lift this video above other play throughs that I've seen of this game.
I’m one of the people who’s been waiting for Jack to play this. I love watching him play not just bc he’s the only one who bothers to explain the lore and what’s happening but seeing the pure joy he has for these games never gets old. That along with the helpful explanations means I’ve watched this 3x already with 0 regrets lol
given how I'm 100 hours in and not even close to beating the game... Jack's series will at least be 50 parts.
no he pro gamer
He already played this game so he knows what to prioritize or not so he'll likely skip some areas with weapon rewards not for his build.
He finished bloodborne + the dlc in only 3 parts
@@bismarckimperia8781 He finished it? Did he stream it?
he said hes finished it 5 times though
I came straight here from watching the entire blood born series in one sitting Jack your the best
I love how Jack is smiling at some of the bosses in the intro cutscene :D You can tell he has fond memories from his previous runs.
That look to the camera at 1:10:30 is perfect! Also I love seeing Jack so elated to be playing a game you can tell he’s really passionate about these From Software games.
I'm glad jack finally got that ADHD thing figured out, I got adhd so I knew he had it the day I first saw him and that's part of why I love his content cause I could relate to how he acts, bouncing around like he does from thing to thing, forgetting shit a lot, etc. It's just another reason why I watch him
i have ADHD too and for the longest time i could never figure out why i liked watching him all these years. whenever people asked why i liked watching him i could never explain it, but now i know it’s because of our similar mindsets
I was introduced to him through a friend who had/has ADHD
ADHD Gang
ADHD is the worst cause you can't focus on one thing
I pretty much knew he probably had adhd from the moment I started watching his videos, because I also have it
This and his blood born series are his best because it’s him gushing about his hyper fixation, and he just seems so happy to be doing it so it makes amazing content
I've tried the game and it's phenomenal. Elden Ring is definitely one of the most greatest games of all time. I'm glad Jack finally made a let's play. Can't wait for more Elden Ring playthrough.
FINALLY! The moment we've all been waiting for. Looking forward to watching this series 😁

This game quickly became my favorite of all time. It’s absolutely insane how much they put into this masterpiece and I’m so happy I get to watch you play it now!
9 minutes in and I'm already convinced to play this game. You had me at Commander O'Neill.
I’m glad that he’s going with games he’s excited for and has a history of loving the same type of games. I hope he keeps going with the games he’s passionate about
It pleases me just how passionate Jack is about these games and how it really shows in his skill, loving these playthroughs

Watching Sean beat a boss in two attempts (would’ve been one if he didn’t fall) that I spent like 2hrs on hurts 💀
He beat this game 7 times before this playthrough that's why 💀
at least u didn’t spend two days on it 💀
