    Fear the old blood. By the gods, fear it.
    The Beast Claw is a weapon that can only be found in the Chalice Dungeons. And we're not talking the first few - you have to go DEEP into the dungeons to find it. Which is a shame, because this is easily my favorite weapon in the game.
    Let me show you why.

    I came for this channel because it seemed like a good dark souls challenge runner, and now i am watching a man writing his journey through not a challenge, but a way to play the game, and display it by creating wonderful lore based on his playthrough, not only the dramatic parts, he included his struggles, his victories, his feelings, his jokes and most of all his passion for doing this.
    Lemon is an example of great content as he does things his own way, he's not afraid of cheating to do a challenge run, he makes these stories, he plays games that aren't very talked about, he references jokes made in previous videos and some of these jokes become lore.

    Whether it's intentional or not, I love the moments when you get really angry and start yelling. It makes your descent into beasthood seem more real, like it's making you more irritable and violent.

      I find the speech during the chalice dungeons very befitting of this channels Bloodborne runs as a whole. Each time, the same. Each time, different. Each playthrough a new soul with ancient memories, played back on themselves. A new weapon, a new twist. And yet. The same madness pervading your mind. Each delve into the dark abyss of this game bringing out a new story, and the growing insanity-so crucial to the soul of a storyteller- drags itself a little further forward with each journey. Less of the game. Fewer stats. Fewer side notes on the mechanics. Some bosses a mere footnote, others entirely unmentioned. In their place, the heart of a story beats stronger. More breathtaking monologues. More mystery and missing footage, set aside for the sake of what must be done, what must be told, that you may rest.
      There is a storyteller in all of us, Lemon. And yours seems to be awakening. We'll be waiting for you, in the depths past your inner core, when the long dream is over. But dont worry, you wont be alone in the suffering your stories have caused you.
      After all...

    As someone who studied drama in my later years of high school and did solo renditions of truly touching and deep solo monologues this has to be one of the best I have ever heard and if I had the chance I’d have done it as my final production
    Lemon you truly are a wizard with words and your monotone yet deep and emotion filled tone actually had me listening to every word with utter focus
    This was amazing and I would love to hear you do some other monologues but that is maybe asking too much
    Keep up the good work my guy and please take a break if you need to as your mental health is very important

    I've always loved the storytelling in your videos. It's just crazy how well you can change the shift and tone from goofy and light-hearted to dark and introspective. I can't wait to see the next video you come up with.

    Hey lemon, i love that in every intro nemesis from re3 says "stars" very cool. You can almost make him saying "start"

    • @nolongeraperson
      @nolongeraperson 2 месяца назад +5

      I don't think that's Nemesis. It's just similar sounding and is just a tuned "Start" through a mixer of some sort.

    I think I like the weapon showcase videos the best because its similiar to how I play these games. Most of my runs are built around a weapon, and sometimes its silly obscure ones. Its awesome to see someone take these weapons to the next level. Great work as always Lemon.

    In the beginning of the run it's all light-hearted jokes, slightly goofing, yet as the run goes on and the story builds, you feel the suffocation almost as though you're there with it. Absolutely amazing Lemon, well done, I felt the spiral, and I gotta admit this is one of my favorite vids so far ♥

  • @UpliftThrone76
    @UpliftThrone76 2 месяца назад +36

  • @KurisuMikaRisu
    @KurisuMikaRisu 2 месяца назад +4

    Lemon I must say I've really enjoyed the newish style for your videos, how you narrate them like each being their own story so they feel like how they truly always should have been they were there in spirit before but now they're here in body and spirit almost like you've taken a page from vaati's book
    Also watching the challenge dungeon portion on the final video after seeing the stream made the video experience so much better

    • @opusmagnus26
      @opusmagnus26 2 месяца назад

      Going down the path of the Beast while keeping your feet upon the Hunter's Path while the Kin and Great Old Ones gnaw at the mind. Forgoing firearms or other assorted weapons, just the Beast Claw and the Beast Rune etched into you and the ultimate constant of the Hunter: Kill to survive the night while waiting for sunrise. The man and the beast rip and tear through their fellows and the Kin alike without mercy for they do not know mercy, so why should you? Keep in mind that Beast and Hunter are alike in that they must kill to survive, but for different reasons. Beasts kill to feed with any lesser beast or unfortunate soul, hunter or not, with the cobblestone as their dinner table. Hunters kill to cull them for it is merely their job over it being instinct, but should they be blooddrunk, they become lesser than Beasts. Beasts born of the Scourge kill to feed as animals do (provided the madness it inflicts doesn't get someone first) and Hunter kill for it is their duty. The blood-crazed Hunter kills either for sport or for absolutely no reason at all. When it comes to Hunters that killed their fellow hunters and men that full become beasts of the scourge, is there really any difference other than mindless slaughter on whoever they see or smell without a care in the world?

    Holy shit Lemon, this has to be one of your strongest narrative videos yet. The constant Yharnam jumpscares with the way you act in them is CRAZY. Absolutely wild to hear your normally pretty soothing, quiet voice screaming "WHAT DO YOU WANT" at Yharnam with the jump cuts and the distortion, your descent into madness in the chalice dungeon, the ending which, frankly, was chilling. God damn.

You restored my love of the Dark souls series with your fun and knowledge of the games. you make it look really easy playing all these games back and doing runs no one would think about doing. You Lemon in all your might push through it all and I would just like to say that even though I am just one person, that I appreciate what you do and am so glad I saw your videos. Please keep up the good work. Firebomb academy for life! Lets go!!!
