That's so refreshing. I hate to see Elden Ring or even ds3 players shitting on the pre-bloodborne games for not being as fast as the others
Its even funnier knowing bloodborne and elden ring are ass
@@GilbertTheGilbertGuyBB isn't ass 🤨
Most DS3 and ER players only played those two games. They’ll happily shit on DS2 because of the reputation and never play it once.
@@alessandrobaggi6129 more ass than a Pixar mom.
@@Auvisomeyeah I’ll admit ds2 has a lot of problems but it’s still a great time. Not nearly as bad as people try and make it seem.
waiting for blighttown
he's ok tho i remember playing it in xbox 360 the fps drops were crazy
@@ifriman7083 Crisp 13fps
DS1 will forever be my favorite game of all time.
I think its fromsofts best work and one of the greatest games ever made.
@@asdfghjkllkjhgfdsa8725 Agreed!
DS1 is the best video game ever made.
If only it wasn't unfinished and horrible after ringing the second bell
@@TheDustyChinchillaNot even the best darksouls let alone best game
lol the humanity took forever for me to figure out until I started getting invaded
As a souls veteran, I wordered this thought exactly, so thank you for actually tryin it out, I'd love to see more, keep it up man! Some day you might even git gud
The roll _into_ the boss is such a telling sign of a former Elden Ring player
@@lifeonmars4088 This makes absolutely no sense. Rolling into most bosses in darksouls is entirely normal
Kindling increases how many flasks you can carry, but only when resting at that bonfire.
Stop trying to play it like Elden Ring, its much more methodical and about timing
🤓
Hmmm... it's almost like he's an elden ring player and the point of the video is that he only has experience with elden ring so he'd just going based off what he knows.... just maybe this is the case.
It's really not that different lol
@@TheGamingDandyit is actually, i mean the stamina at least. Unlike elden ring stamina doesnt replenish in a second and so stamina management is more important in ds1. Each attack is important and could mean life or death unlike elden ring
@@nicholas3445Yes... That's why he's giving him the advice?
The key was actually a great choice because it allows you to use a door that goes straight to Blight Town without having to take the long way around through the Valley of Drakes.
If you're willing to put in the points into Strength and Dexterity, the Zweihander can be one of the best weapons to use in DS1. I used it recently for a video I did on my channel here and I found that using the heavy attack on a certain boss later down the line could stun them, which trivialized the fight. Also if you get a certain mask from another boss and pair the zweihander with said mask and a set known as Giant's Armor you can become one of Dark Souls's most immortalized player characters.
You will enjoy this game tenfold without spoilers, you can only have a first playthrough once. Have fun dude.
My friend hated souls games, couldnt figure them out but Elden Ring explains things so much better about how to upgrade and everything that he went back and loves DS trilogy now
Elden Ring also has the most horrible bosses in the entire series. The only focus in that game was to make it casual friendly with bosses designed around bleed/magic and summons. Bosses are insanely hard (sometimes frame perfect) for any melee build that can't hit trade. Hyperarmor is such a joke when the poise bar is hidden... Not to mention the endless combos they tend to start at obscure times. DS1 bosses were clunky but fair, Sekiro was insanely hard but you had many tools to properly learn bosses (stance bar+revive), DS3 bosses were an amazing mix of every souls game before, and ER just feels like a cinematic with a skippable (with summons) fight right after or a game for challenge runners that like to discover frame perfect dodges and such. All of that to say I strongly disagree that Elden Ring is better at explaining mechanics. The only thing it teaches you is that hit trading is good (which renders Midir impossible with that mindset) and that you have to rely on summons to ever heal (which makes the entirety of sekiro impossible with that mindset). Not to mention that you are actually slower than in DS3 and BB in Elden Ring even though the bosses are about 1.5 times faster. Thank you fromsoft for making a game about watching cinematics and cheesing bosses.
@@milothan-poirier570sounds like someone sucks at elden ring😢
@@bruksmegee7371 I beat Promised consort Radahn Without a summon, bleed, a greatshield, frost. Literally just dodgerolls and a vanilla twinblade. Level 15 scadutree. It took me 8 hours and none of it was fun. The one time I had fun learning a boss in the DLC was Messmer and maybe Bayle because of the NPC summon. Let me rephrase: Elden Ring bosses MOSTLY suck, they're creating difficulty out of bullshit to counteract the equal amount of bullshit the player has (mimic tear +10 was the biggest mistake in any FromSoft game). Everything got powercrept, my problem are not delayed attacks or waterfowl dance in particular. You can learn both of them with a fair amount of tryhard. My problem is that EVERY BOSS has delayed attacks and their own little waterfowl dance equivalent which encourages hit trading. And this powercreep stems from the existence of OP summons. If every summon was like the base wolves/not upgradable it would be already a huge upgrade to the game. The last straw was Radahn's frame perfect attack in P1 and the amount of visual garbage in P2 both making the rest of his relatively fair patterns extremely unfun to learn. The game can only truly be enjoyed as a RPG, it was never intended to be a souls like and failed as the last game in the Souls series. elden ring is a failed game and I will never play it again unless they make the good bosses easy to access in the game/fightable after their death. Which they won't.
14:05 HAHAH xD that looked like a professional roll with the way he dove out through there. Totally intended lol
I did the same thing going from elden ring to DS1 and one thing that shocked me was how much dmg you do against bosses and how precise the roll timing is
I started with Bloodborne and Sekiro. Everyone called me crazy because of it
High five
I started with sekiro and elden ring
@@TesticalSemenWarrior nice
yeah this game has a nasty way of giving you little to no information at all, if you don’t want a little explanation on what you did when you kindled then don’t click read more.
as you noticed - you had 10 flasks at the firelink bonfire, that is one of few bonfires that starts out kindled (hence why it said you couldn’t kindle it any further without the secret rite) all other bonfires in the game only restore your estus flasks back up to a maximum of 5. when you kindled it you made it now give you up to 10 flasks upon respawn or rest at that bonfire.
thanks bro im playing it for the first time too and had no clue
"He's waiting for me to attack. That's kinda cringe." I was really trying to watch this, but I can't stand these.
It was so painful to watch him not notice kindling increased the flasks he got.
I found out that I had played the unpatched day one version on PS3 because I had no Internet at the time, and that made me real happy since I was basically playing on hard mode for those 4 unemployed months I was addicted to it. Made it to orenstein and smough before I quit. Really appreciate all the quality of life improvements, but every so often i think about giving it another shot
Resistance is a trap stat. Ignore it completely. Instead get vitality and endurance to 20ish to hold u in the early games then focus what ever build u want.
The endgame weapon meta involved using non boss weapons, body buff and weapon buff (boss weapons cant use weapon buffs).
Weapon buffs were either consumables (resins that apply elemental buffs) or weapon spell buff (these buffs added are more arcane in nature and scale with the catalyst used and the stat associated with it).
But most importantly, every weapon (non gag weapons at leaat) is viable and u can be very flexible in ur build
Played DS PTDE while ago, then bought Elden Ring, it went well, then started fresh DS III and holy shoot this game beats a$$!!
What I enjoyed the least about elden ring was fighting interior mobs, castle esque area's, dungeons, generally fighting in confined spaces, random knowledge checks like boulders rolling out of nowhere after you. When I see older souls game's all that garbage seems like 90% of the gameplay
Best of luck on the challenges ahead of you! Beware of comment spoilers if you want a blind playthrough. Some people can't seem to help themselves with this game in particular.
Looking forward to future videos!
I never played dark souls 1, but i realized the putrid avatar has almost the same moveset as the asylum demon
If you play the older titles, you gotta get used to how slow everything is. Once you get used to the timings, you'll feel like Neo.
Omg Asylum demon and Erdtree avatar have the same moves.
Ironically, I think you had the closest to an intended experience with the game. Hang in there! It is janky and cryptic but the game can be mastered, (one word "gear"). And for the people that were there, this was the closest we had to Elden Ring for a while. Bloodborne is my favorite of the series but DS1 will always hold a special place in my heart.
You can kill him when you walk in 1st time if you choose firebombs. You get his great hammer
Also when youre under 70% weight you do medium rolls I think
Reading the comments. JFC DS fans really are insufferable.
Seeing and hearing all the quality of life to the souls game in one video
The biggest thing that irritated me was = no more jumping
Love to see a fresh take on the game.
At this point, other games have definitely perfected what it and Demon Souls introduced. However, Dark Souls 1 still remains one of my favorite puzzle boxes of an rpg to revisit
I played ds1 first and love it but elden ring in my opinion is better and i think other people who has played both should agree. Elden ring was created years later with better tech, the gameplay is smoother, and we have more option during combat.
If we're talking about difficulty or the world design or stuff like that, i guess it make sense to pick either one due to each people prefering different stuff. But isn't it weird if fromsoft game that we all love would devolve with each passing years?
i would say try to play slower and be super curious if you’re doing a blind play-through because this game has so many hidden secrets since the map is so interconnected. The upgrading system is goofy af, like you need a certain type of weapon upgraded enough to get a boss weapon goofy, so i might meta game at least to look at boss weapons if you wanna use one your first play through. it’s really fun game though and i couldn’t recommend it more so i hope you keep playing
I mean, honestly, most of the mechanics are explained if you just read stuff and listen to people.
Some tips from a DS veteran.
1. Since, you're going for a strength/dex build (objectively the way to play the game, unlike stinky Elden Ring with its Dex, Int and Bleed builds), get the Zweihander (The Bass Cannon) and just profit. In this game, it's the best weapon to use with its ability to flatten humanoid enemies like a pancake.
2. Get poise! Get the heaviest armor set you can and just tank through the bosses' attacks like they're a joke. Unstoppable Force gets beaten by an Immovable Object.
3. Humanity is the number on the top left corner of the screen besides the health and stamina bars. It determines, how resistant you are to poison and other statuses, item discovery. When you use a humanity from the counter at the top left, you can become human by reversing your hollowing, which will make your character look like the one you created in the menu. It will also allow you to get invaded by NPCs and other players. The MOST important thing it does is that, it allows you to kindle a bonfire and make it stronger and give you more estus flasks whenever you rest at that specific bonfire. This game doesn't have a Golden Seed/Estus Shard mechanic. You have to kindle each bonfire for you to get the larger amount of heals every time you rest. Firekeeper Souls are like Sacred Tears and it upgrades your Estus Flask.
Most bonfires will start out with 5 estus flasks but the ones that have a firekeeper will already be kindled and give you 10 flasks.
4. Every time, you see a boss or "bosslike creature" with a tail, attack the tail to get a special surprise.
Anyway. I'll stick you in my prayers. A fine Dark Soul, to you.
I started with bloodborn. You can say whatever ypu want but for me it's the best soulsborn. 30 fps is painful but every other aspect of the game is 10/10
You do get s when backstepping. Dark Souls 2 lets you get more but DS3 and ER doesn’t give you backstep s (unless you get the ER DLC talisman)
My first souls game was elden ring, went back and played dark souls 1, 2 and 3 and ds1 is probably my favourite souls game now, although playing og dark souls and not remastered was painful-
So is it just me or is the move set for the asylum demon very similar to the erdtree avatar
Today i had nothing to do and i started a new character in ds1 and i just beat o&s lol you should do a whole playthrough of it id love to watch you play it
Yoo i am also going to play dsr when i finish elden ring but i have to first buy the game off a 2handshop for å cheaper price btw i am going to finish the whole trilogy og this game an i think this could be fun to see for manny as i am doing and so should you so just keep uploadnig videos of you playing the dsr and yeah
Ds just doesn't hold your hand like Elden ring. Once you really get into it, you'll see why it's still considered to be one of the best games fromsoft ever made. And yeah for sure, after playing Elden ring, sekiro and ds3, there definitely are things that feel antiquated but in a way that gives the game more charm. Combat is slower and more methodical which forces you to take your time with boss fights.
I would have tried the other games but I honestly just never gave a shit Elden Ring was the only one that looked interesting didn't bother playing the other games in the series.
@@limit504. lol
It's not really perfect timing...although it is kinda tight.
You just parry the hand of the opponent. Not the weapon.
So the weapon model and its reach might as well be ignored when it comes to parrying.
You focus on when the hand meets the hitbox of your parry. That hitbox is fairly generous in DS1.
Just gotta know what you are actually parrying.
It's also really weird that you call the Zweihänder a classic while starting with ER.
I think the internet might have done some dmg on you already. :P
i love watching ppl blind playthroughs of ds
also there is a secret way to a merchant on the roof near bonefire which had 2 spear guys on it.( you have to break wooden boxes/barrels to see it)he has a key go buy it
waiting for him to fucking block
It's worth trying out circle strafing on all enemies
I'd like to see more, entertaining video on a comfort game of mine
Edit: try to avoid spoilers. This game is a lot more fun blind
I ak returning back to basics after my ng+8 run
Something that really bugs me in the new Soulslikes is the stamina (I guess we can thank Dark Souls 3 for that). It's a freakin' joke, you have too much. You can attack so many times it's ridiculous. You can skip leveling it up and you'll be fine the whole game. It's like a "dump stat" if you know what I mean.
Hollowing and unhollowing are online mechanics. In the beginning, that shriveled look? You are in the hollowed form. In that state, PvP is off. If you reverse hollowing at a bonfire and become human, PvP is turned on. Don't know if there are still online PvP for DS1 nowadays anyway.
As for kindling, it increases your flask count. There are 3 stages of kindling and each bonfire must be kindled individually if you want the benefit. No auto application to all bonfires by kindling only 1 bonfire. You can do the first stage without needing the rite and that increases your flask count from the base 5 to 10. To do the 2nd stage, you will need a secret rite that you will come across the quest for it later. 2nd stage kindling will raise your flask count to 15, 3rd stage will raise it to 20. To kindle a bonfire, you need humanity. You do not need to unhollow to kindle a bonfire.
To get a +1, +2, etc. to your flask, you need a firekeeper soul and feed them to Anastacia, the firekeeper imprisoned beneath the Firelink Shrine. That means you can kill firekeepers you will encounter at some other bonfires and get their souls, right? Sure you can BUT killing a firekeeper will PERMANENTLY extinguish the bonfire they're tending. So, don't do that because you'll find a few spare firekeeper souls if you search around.
This is torture...
Oh this should be fun
: 3 id keep up with this letsplay x D
I started the souls games with DS3, then Elden Ring. So i fear to not love the previous games because they are too old and cluncky for me.
People say shit like “DS1 bosses are nothing compared to Elden Ring” but forget that player power level in early DS games was extremely low compared to newer ones. You’re extremely slow, you hardly have any stamina + rolling costs WAY more stamina, and your offensive capabilities are extremely bottlenecked compared to the arsenal of shit you get in ER. DS1 is much more about timing and learning patterns than just mindlessly rollspamming through a bosses attacks then nuking them instantly with the kamehameha.
What do you mean the bosses in ds1 are ez af unless u got a shit build (dex)
With all the limitations on the player that u mentioned, it was still incredibly easy.
I’m sorry but learning a bosses “moveset” when the entire moveset is like 4-5 attacks with no variation is not difficult whatsoever.
I feel like I’m crazy because I played Elden ring first, had a lot of people told me “ds1 is way harder” played it (with the dlc) and the only bosses with noteworthy challenge were the iconic duo and manus.
MORE PLEASE AND THANK YOU
i love elser ring
Mine was demons souls. 2010
My first souls like game was lies of p (I'm a kinda new player) on elden ring though I'm at the last DLC boss!
I dont believe that you haven't at least watched people play Ds1. Everyone gets rolled
Dude ignored Demon's souls lol
Keep this going.
Bruh, DS series has a better bosses then elden ring or sekiro. In DS u don’t have auto-finishing of bosses’ attacks (not counting 3), they don’t read whether you’re healing or not-their series of attacks don’t change. Elden ring is Miyazaki's worst game, when you can't make an interesting combat system and pve bosses - you do auto-finishing, etc.
If you ask a dark souls players what he thinks of Elden Ring, mate will most likely give you an uppercut, following up by a fully charged zweihander R2.
I love all souls games… though bloodborne and sekiro I’ve never beaten (but I’m super close to beating) and demons souls I’ve only played alittle bit of because I don’t want to dust off my ps3 nor do I want to buy a ps5 for the remake. I did play demons souls on the ps3 but didn’t care much for souls games back then.
My first Souls Game was Demon's Souls at the PS3. And played all besides of Sekiro. Tbh i'm not a huge fan of Elden Ring ^^" sorry dorry
beat ds3 and ds1 after playing elden ring, both games were piss easy and dated.
I wanna see more 😂
Dude you play like a spaz. Lol You need to take it a little slower in Dark Souls. You went through the fog gate and fell right off that ledge? Lol
Ok, now ds2

Demons souls is best.
Best fromsoft games in order imo -
1. Dark souls 1
2. Bloodborne
3. Elden ring
4. Dark souls 3
5. Sekiro
6. Demon souls
7. Dark souls 2
Dark souls one is such a unique journey where you earn everything you get and the mistakes you make are permanent the in game world of dark souls 1 is so unique more than any other game ever you will see definitely stick with it dark souls 1 will blow your mind it's a true masterpiece
Welp. I am sure I did even worse during my first souls game so don't take this the wrong way...
You play like someone that needs glasses. Your attention is all over the place, To be expected of Gen Z.
okay unc
elden mid
Best game of all time, i played Elden ring first too
