Another great run. Really enjoyed that conversation about how build variety in Soulslikes is so important, immediately made me think of the crazy amount of abilities that Code Vein gives in crafting different playstyles. One of the few Soulslikes I've felt that I could really design an rpg style build to specifically counter whatever challenges you come up against.
If he didnt miss the backstab on gascoigne and get gun spammed, it totally wouldve been 57. Plus many other things. Not sure how long he'll keep up the attempts but this time could get so low!
9:55 I actually played Mortal Shell as a springboard to get into other Soulslike games. since it's a pretty short game I used it to gauge whether or not I could handle games like Dark Souls or Bloodborne, and I'm doing quite well in those games now
Funny you mention the guy with the new Skyrim AE clips, I instantly knew exactly who you were talking about. I think the key to that kind of explosion with the algorithm is consistency, especially daily uploads if one can manage it. There are other ways to get popular of course, but those are the channels that RUclips tends to fall in love with. Similar thing happened with a Forza Horizon 5 channel, except the guy uses essentially a bot to upload multiple videos every day. Wild stuff
It's funny you mention EazySpeezy - he just started popping up on my feed recently constantly. Actually kinda led me here, in a round about way. (speed run videos -> dark souls -> walk throughs -> soulslike speed runs)
I found EasySpeezy coincidentally when he was blowing up because I looked for a Swords and Sandals speedrun lmao. I just like it for the nostalgia of those old flash games, I don't particularly care for his other stuff.
@Distortion2, I don't know if you edit your own videos, but I really appreciate how you place ads during loading screens. They never get in the way of an awesome or tense moment. It's the little things.
Id say its about putting in the effort to grow a community that sticks with you from beginning to end. Also depends on if you're on something like twitch more than youtube. Is youtube just for your archives, and twitch is your streams? If you want success on youtube--with a big community, and maybe alot of views you would probably need to make youtube your main streaming site. Of course streaming on twitch and putting archives on youtube might be better financially.
Loyalty is overrated, hell even I've had channels I've subbed to for years that I have unsubbed immediately as soon as I saw their first in video (not ad) promo for fucking Raid shadow legends...filth. I hate that shit.
@@TimewastiusMaximus you gonna miss a lot of good content if you have such a thin skinned for a simple ads like that. it's a a lot of money for a mere skippable 30 secs on video, make creators life a lot easier.
It’s funny dist brought up the EazySpeezy thing, because around the time he got huge it popped up on my youtube feed, and I watched nothing but him for like a week. Weird how the algorithm gets you like that
For "replayability" build variety definitely trumps bosses for me. Sekiro is an amazing game and overall one of From's best games but replay value, yeah I'd argue there's not much. A game like Dark Souls 1, I'd argue the boss quality is overall just OK. A few really strong fights, but most of them are average at best with a few notably awful ones (Ol' Sweepy Hands and the Legend of the Crumbling Floors). What you can do with your character and the routing you can do with the game (still has the best interconnectivity of the games today) are a few of what give it replayability. Everyone has an opinion on Dark Souls 2. Mine is that it has the best build variety of them all. Boss fights are generally quantity over quality, but I don't think it's that different from DS1 in that it has some great standouts, a ton of middling fights, and just a few that I'd say are _offensively_ awful. Bloodborne was probably the most replayable game for me though. Though build variety is smaller, it's more specialized. You pick a few weapons you will main for a character and build around those and the weapons are all very fun and satisfying to use. Boss fights are some of the best but also just the way the game feels to play, the style, atmosphere, and the chalice dungeons despite being on one hand absolutely terrible are also amazingly addictive because of the surprise factor of the root chalices and the loot (OP gems mainly but also the chance for extra blood rock drops) and the challenge of the lower depth bosses keep me going. Oh speaking of I can't wait to see the Cannon glitch applied to the Chalice bosses. Should be satisfying to see a-holes like Pthumerian Descendant, Bloodletting Beast (both versions), the Cursed Chalice bosses (but especially Amygdala) and so forth getting Cannonfucked to death.
Agree, having diferent builds in bloodborne really changes how you face the game and even the strategy to use againts the bosses. That is a really good point that makes it stand out among the other games
It's weird, like Sekiro is admittedly the least replayable fromsoft game, and yet I've played through it more times than I have DkS1-3 combined :P I feel like it has a certain rhythm game aspect that the others don't quite have, and I actually love that
For Dark Souls weapons there are different fighting styles for weapons in the same catagory. How you attack bosses with a standard greatsword is completely different than with the Artorias greatsword. Same with a hammer or club vs Smoughs hammer.
Regarding what Dist said, Pewdiepie is the only person on youtube who can do whatever the fuck he wants and still get views. It's like the Midas touch. Everybody else either caters to their audience or gets suppressed.
Right now you can't really create TAS of fromsoft games, even segmented runs are extremely difficult to make. There are no TAS tools at all that properly work for these games. Another problem is the timing, as you wouldn't be able to replicate the standard in-game timing method that the leaderboards use. In a TAS run you load savestates, which will fuck with the in-game timer. You might decide to time it with Real Time, manually subtract the loads and add a simulated timer in post, but you won't get the same results as with in-game time. For a game like Sekiro, we know that just by switching from In-Game Time to Real Time no Loads would change the strats used in runs, because the runs are tailored to in-game time. That being said it might be possible for a heavily moddable game like the original Dark Souls PTDE, but it's pretty much impossible for Sekiro and 100% impossible for Bloodborne in it's current state, Because of the lack of savestates.
righty, i'm new to all this so do excuse my ignorance. . .but how is it 59:03 when the clock is running around 1:07:20 when you kill moonpresence? Cheers
23:53 wasn't it like 2 days ago where that skip being done successfully got Dist hyped a little. Now it's just casually tings. Git gud to the point where gud is normal.
People who don't have Alot of skill make compilation videos.. you don't need to do that buddy. You got skillz. Girls just like guys with lots of skillzz !
He like makes like speedrun like videos and like people like like watching them like all the time like what the like is going like on like huh. Please stop talking this way.
RUclipss algorithm is fucked atm...I've seen channels that are 3 months old with over 150k subscribers, and videos that have over 1 million views each...its bullshit. Shits all fucked up considering how hard it was to get picked up by the algorithm. Then again people watch Mr Beast and Pewdiepie so the lack of intellect of the average RUclips viewer is also a factor...
I opened the vid and was like “oh someone other than dist got WR” then I realized it was in fact you. Digging the new look man and congrats
@Luis Martinez Ahady said he may do this on one of Dist's Streams and Romanticore said they were intrested
Sub hour is a freaking awesome result for this game. From run to run Dist becomes more and more speedrun Jesus looking)
no such thign as bad or awes or etc
Another great run.

Already watched the run when it was unlisted, just came to say great job! Waiting for the 58. I even see a 57 coming

Dist looks like Kyle 1.0 rn
Wtf didn't know you were a Souls fan lol
Ah, a man of culture AND science. Good stuff.
you are the legend of soulsborne

a chalice dungeons run should definitely be done with this glitch
Haven't seen your videos for months, didn't know you hair can be so shiny and smooth in the light.
Kept on watching them than the VOD lol.

ok so now this game is a shoot'em up....

So has the limit FINALY been reached? When is someone planning on making a TAS for this game? It's not that hard to jailbreak a PS4, right?
