Wanna know the scariest part? I didn't know about Trumpeter, meaning I didn't know I needed Endure for Trumpeter. The fact that I managed to still have it was nothing but dumb luck
You kicked ass man, that's some dedication. Also, German here. Freikugel comes from a German opera and while it hilariously translates to Free Ball, it also translates to Free Bullet, since kugel means both. The Freikugeln were a set of seven bullets that never missed their targets thanks to a deal with the devil, with the target of the seventh bullet being chosen by the devil.
I think I remember hearing something about that, and that makes a lot of lore sense, y'know, considering Lucifer. But like.... the joke was RIGHT THERE, man! LMAO Also, thank you; I appreciate the good word
Hmm, here's something that's interesting if true... from 1911 Encyclopædia Britannica; FREISCHÜTZ, in German folklore, a marksman who by a compact with the devil has obtained a certain number of bullets destined to hit without fail whatever object he wishes. The name by which the Freischütz is known in French is *Robin* des Bois.
@@kichiroumitsurugi4363yeah, he uses the coin to mess with people cuz he’s always down to help if it’s important but he likes to be a little mysterious, yes that is the actually legitimate reason he used the coin for several years before just keeping it on his person as a luck charm of sorts that he apparently never lost even after his month coma in 5
It's a reference to DMC2, where Dante says that he'll decide whether or not to help someone based on a coin flip, but then it's revealed at the end that the coin only has heads sides.
I'm not even 15 minutes in but I have to say, this video is REALLY entertaining. Your humour is on-point and a great way to make a video this long consistently engaging and interesting. Excellent work!
You deserve a lot more credit here. This is a tight, well scripted, and funny challenge run breakdown. I haven't played Nocturne in like a decade, let alone have a finished it. But this makes me wanna go back ASAP.
Wow, this was amazing to watch. Even with the errors you made in skipping over important skills, you showed some incredible determination in actually seeing it through to the end. Not to mention how real and visceral your reactions were. I'm definitely subscribing after seeing this. Nice job!
39:55 My god, why do I remember that this Yu-Gi-Oh song is the one that plays when Kaiba realizes he is the reincarnation of an Egyptian priest who used to sacrifice his servants to make blue eyes white dragon 😂
Infinite Light on hard mode is so full of magic steroids it's actually unfair. With max defense up on your party and max attack down on Kagutsuchi, it STILL deals over 500 damage.
"punching fish tends to be very difficult, so I recommend you electrocute it first" AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA! I was drinking at that moment. Water came in through the mouth and out trough the nosr
For such a small RUclipsr, I'm utterly impressed by the amount of effort and quality put into this video. The script was sharp, and aside from the boring montage with the bishaman guy (still very impressive!), I was hooked the whole way through. I haven't played Nocturne yet, but when the remaster comes out, I'm eager to give it a shot. I might do some challenge runs myself!
@@joshuamedina6807 Not sure about SMT 5 but even in DDS1 he uses demons. He certainly doesn't need them though, since he can end the fight whenever he chooses to.
i always repeat watching this its such a good challenge video and really impressive considering it was a blind playthrough good job cant wait for the demonless devil survivor absolutely love that game.
Also, you're so hilarious, I love your little jokes and references throughout. It makes the grind so refreshing to watch, especially for SMT fans who have viewed multiple playthroughs and summaries of the games when we are itching for new content! You're great :)
41:53 These where he totally went insanity with BLIND FAITH and actually win and his reaction pretty solid haha and on 57:00 he basically Cunter shit out of this boss haha
Putting this in to hope this help your algorithm shit but also subbing cause this was legit the second best SMT Nocturne video I've ever seen. First going to the Mot videos I love to show to people who ask what SMT is about
ik this has probably been said a lot, but this is one of if not the best challenge run vids on the site, if the audio and resolution (of nocturne) was better it'd be perfect
This was a fantastic Challenge run video. Definitely one of the best I've seen. The comedy was on point, the explanations about the challenge itself, the gameplay, and just about everything was great. I would definitely love to see more videos like this, maybe a Persona 3 /Persona 5 run? Now that would be interesting.
I found this video here and there in my recommendations and just seeing someone choose such a scary path just made me shudder. I finally gave it a view and wow, this was a road trip. The insane methods and skill and luck you did with the complete stubbornness to push yourself so far. It’s impressive and inspiring. Good job! Wish you luck with whatever more you take on!
Man I know this video is old but I just wanna say I really enjoyed it, both the humor and the explanations of what you were doing were really fun. Great video!
Just discovered your channel through this video, and my god you have balls of titanium to even attempt this. Looking forward to you doing something similar for SMT V (Nahobino only, Aogami Essences only).
Just found this video in my recommended and I'm so disappointed it didn't pop up sooner, what an amazing well constructed video and the fact it hasn't blown up yet at least some what makes me lose further faith in this platform. Keep it up man this was nothing short of incredible I was sad to see it was over.
Jesus Christ, you're a mad man, i tought the No Buff / Debuff from Nyarly was crazy but... No demons at all is just... Next level and everything on stream... just wow
This was a very impressive run. Especially since this run was mostly blind. I honestly thought the run was over once you got to Trumpeter. Great video, man.
By philemon this was intense massive round of applause for this absolute unit doing a challenge run like this and on a more or less blind play through of the game the absolute legend
I just realized that you guessed Tails to Dante's coin flip. It kind of makes me wonder a couple of things: 1. How many people failed that coin flip? 2. How many people know that the result is not random? 3. How many people know that the coin is double sided...which ties into... 4. How many people have played DMC2? The revelation that the coin is double sided is such a Dante thing, it fits his personality perfectly. On one hand, I can't recommend people play DMC2...because it was horrible. On the other hand, I feel bad for the people that don't know Dante that well.
"This fight is like playing blackjack" "While the dealer is playing texas hold em, and you need to find a way to beat his hand five times in a row. Or, he'll shoot you in the face and steal your $%^&%#$ wallet." "Counting cards is not an option; IT IS A REQUIREMENT" this is a lot of effort and thought to write one joke, and I respect that 🤣
43:33 Dante gypped you! You don't HAVE to pay him half your money; the coin he flips is his two-headed coin from DMC2, which means all you have to do is choose heads to hire him for literally 1 Macca.
Barely into the video just nodding my head like an idiot. As I have no idea what is really going on. Then, he calls Gandolf a "Punch Wizard". I pause and am like, "Hold up fool! GANDOLF WAS A SWORD WIZARD!". After that. Went back to watching the video.
That timing on Bishy and Rivers in the Desert? *Mwah* One of the greatest things I’ve ever seen. I’ve watched this video so many times and I still get goosebumps at Trumpeter, but especially Bishamon.
Not going to lie, that run was deceptively challenging, watching him do it. Like, you always know in this game that you live and die on you are buffs, but it’s never been more evident than in his run. LOL
Aye you went crazy with this one!
It was a nightmare, but a fun nightmare. LMAO
