What knife weather we're having....
Dude! So much work went into this video man! Its excellent! Keep it up, editing was great. P.S @BaronsCastle inclusion was fun 😅
Ahh yes, the great British Weather
The weather Bloodborne might be getting, right? Lmao
But for real, it was a good effort from you and having Baron as your guest.
Its... Its knife o' clock somewhere.
Just subscribed. This is my type of content. RUclips’s algorithm is doing justice for once.
The voiced throwing knives has me in tears. This is *exactly* my kind of humor. Its silly, it has no right to even be funny, but god if it doesnt get funnier the longer the gag goes on.
Funnily enough, it's my kind of humour too! 😃
I lost it at yeet! 😂
Lol. Reminded me of Monty python. 😂
God I love everything about this community 😂
I thought i was schyzo
Can we give applause to the dedication to voicing every single knife throw? My favourite is fwoosh
Yeah, Baron smashed it!
I was listening closely to say you were wrong but it seems to be very thorough
@@JKLeeds very cleaver idea
My favorite is "generic knife throwing sounds"
nah you crazy if you dont think its "zoom-a"
The fact that every knife has a voice makes this video sooo much better
very well done
Thanks! It was a challenge to edit but worth it!
The Baron collab is very appreciated ❤️
He went above and beyond, proper top dude!
@@JKLeeds You can untie him now.
I will...after DS2....maybe
No after ds3 you must bring him to the end, while you get to rest he lives the ages
he will definitely go hollow by then
Never used the throwing knives before, what a cool and unique sound effect!
I know right?
I love the recent trend of all the souls games challenge runners collaborating on videos, really makes it feel like a community
I'd love to see this challenge be done in DS2. It might not even be so hard since throwing knives are pretty good with lots of variety with full stat scaling
Well my friend....your wish is going to come true, that video will drop early July 😉
This video has got to be one of the best character arcs I’ve ever seen. I’ve never seen a man devolve into insanity in such an entertaining way. Hopefully you can float back down to sanity and do proper challenge runs
Hahaha more challenge runs, yes, sanity, probably not 😂 especially given which game I'm doing this knives run in next
I'm sorry but is that a ZeroLenny reference?
By far the best sound effects of any of your videos…
Whoosh, Yeet, Thwack 🔪
I agree! 😂
The Baron collab was unexpected but brilliant I must say
I was super happy it came together 🙂
@@JKLeeds can't wait to hear all those sound effects over again when you beat dark souls 2 with only throwing knives because you loved this run so much :)
@@hydration4333 .....DS2 Throwing Knives Only is in the editing phase as we speak 😉😉😉
@@JKLeedsis there gonna be a ds3 throwing knife only?
@@amanwithnoplan7648 in a word...yes
This video starts off pretty funny and then slowly descends into madness, I love it
I love how chill he is at the moment he had to wait for the giant to die.
That Senwich was tasty!
@@JKLeeds i hoped so it really look like it was.
Loved the editing in this one- I noticed, the better your sanity: the more dad jokes you make; the less your brain functions properly: the less dad jokes you make.
There is definitely a correlation between sanity and dad jokes
Turning bed of chaos into "fun boss" is something which I'll never forget about this video.
Me neither 🤪😂
It's like 4am and the voiced throwing knives are so funny to me! I'm trying to keep quiet as to not wake anyone up. Brilliant stuff! 😂👏🏻
Man… great video! Having Baron in it is a great bonus. His voice acting is superb and I really felt like I could hear the knives flying past me
Imagine how I felt editing them in there! I was doing Matrix style dodges in front of my computer
Always a joy when you upload new videos! Also the fact that every knife throw was voiced is pure gold😂
Glad you liked it! It took a lot of editing 😄
Throwing knives were useful for 1 thing in my SL1 run vs Artorias because it was the easiest way to break him out of the buff animation
Yeah they do have their uses....it's just that beating the game by themselves isn't one of them 😂
Can you leave knives at the fog wall and gather them again when you run out? If so you may need to redo this run without the summon cheese.
You can but I sorta consider that a glitch, plus it would only help with Quelaag really, everything else has way too much health or a drop after the fog gate meaning you can't get back to it
This was a lot of fun, sound effects and all!
Thanks! Glad you liked it 😄
i love ur channel ever since i found it bcs your runs are really interesting hope u get more subs !
Thank you! That's nice to hear
This was fkin hilarious 🤣The voiced knives and decent into madness were brilliant! Bangin' job mate and I wish u a speedy recovery 🙏
Thank you! My recovery consisted of....doing DS2 Throwing Knives Only 🤪 video out in July!
@@JKLeeds Jesus christ! 💀
With the effort put into these videos I’m surprised he doesn’t have more subs
Hopefully more people like myself will sub, I did only a couple of minutes ago. The humour is right up my street, such fun easy going entertainment!
This was an amazing video! This video + the pyr-oemancy masterpiece earned you a new sub 🤩
p.s. Will have to try the throwing knives, the sound effect of the knives is really something 🤣🤣🤣
Your sense of humor is wonderful, that knife voice acting for example added so much to the video.
in the last months im only using youtube just to see dark souls challenge-based channels, including yours.
keep up with the good work man, i really like to see content like this.
Thanks, will do!
Its amazing how well he can communicate his mental stability's decline while doing this run so well, that i felt it as well, i was soooo bored by the run, but also very entertained by the video itself (if that makes sense)
Keep up the good work
The knife voiceover gag is so much funnier than it should be lmao
I shudder to imagine how much extra editing time it took to add the voice effects to each knife. Still totally worth it.
Bro I love you content keep up the work I swear the small RUclipsrs are the funniest and best to watch
Thank you! That's nice to hear and I will indeed keep at it!
@@JKLeeds I have a request if you don’t mind why don’t you try beating dark souls 1 with just poison?
@@fatboyharvey2060 well...wouldn't that work out pretty much the same way this run did? Half the bosses in DS1 can't be poisoned unfortunately
oh look- another challenge runner- i bet he doesen-
wait a minute, with throwing knives? xD that was my reaction going in; loved the video!
Your effort and your jokes Will be in our memories forever :D, good video
Nice video mate, I very enjoyed the sounds when you hit a enemie!
Thanks!
You deserve more subs my dude, great video
Thank you 😊
One thing you could try to bypass carrying limits is to drop some number of knives right on top of a fog gate, then refill from a nearby bonfire. Then when you run out during a fight, you can go to the fog and pick more up. Doesn't work for all boss arenas but it seems viable for a few, like the Gaping Dragon.
Keep up the quality content man!
I will do my best! Glad you liked the video
I’m so happy you bought the smoughtfit. I’m convinced it makes every playthrough more fun
I'm inclined to agree!
I think you can drop extra throwing knives right at the edge of the fog gate so you can have more than 99. Saw someone do that for a Dark Souls 3 consumable only run. Would probably also work for Dark Souls 1.
Yeah that is possible to do but it's sort of a glitch and it wouldn't really help in the long run because of Four Kings and Nito where you can't get back to the fog gate
@@JKLeeds What if you drop stuff on the arena? Wouldn't you be able to pick it up when you need it?
@@davidcardozo290 it wouldn't really make a difference because you can only carry 99 into the boss arena anyway
Those background sound effects are golden!.
Thanks!
Best cooking channel ever! Can’t wait to try the sandwich recipe! 🎉
Dear gods, while he was saying TICK a ad started to play that had watch ticking in the background.
Anyways great video, amazing stuff, glad I did not have to suffer to see if this was possible. Cheers.
KK Dirge in the background is very evocative. Thank you for sacrificing your humanity for our entertainment.
Just randomly heating "yeet" from baron in the middle of a mental spiral by Leeds was a way to start my morning
This was the perfect video to watch after coming home from work.
Glad I could provide some post work entertainment 🙂
I love Leeds, amazing genuine content as always
Thank you! Glad you liked the video 😃
Jesus, Mary, and Joseph... those knife sound effects are fkn wrecking me. That is so damn funny
🗡 🗡🗡🗡🗡🗡🗡🗡
gotta love all the golden age DC Comic onomatopoeia sound effects for every knife hit
You know its a bad day when the Bed of Chaos is the highlight of the day
Recently found your channel and I really enjoy it, thank you :)
I was wondering about the Queelag fight. If, in theory, you free-aim every knife and hit her human body, would you do enough damage?
I think he's lost it guys, however I don't blame him.
You deserve a flippin medal my friend.
I'm still recovering 😜🤪
You do some good work, your a good soulstuber never doubt it
Thank you, that's nice to hear!
Despite all the jokes about Soldier of God, Rick... I've never heard about Sanctuary Guard, Ian. I love it. Ian is all I'll be able to call him now.
😂😂😂😂
Yay new upload!
The part with the giygas sound made me lough out loud, thank you for your health sacrifice for the sake of our entertainment, really fun video as always
Thank you! Glad you liked it 😀
The knife throw voice acting reminds me of that episode of Space Ghost Coast to Coast where every time he flys away you get a nice little “woosh” sound effect 😂
Wow, with all the comments I've ever had on my channel, I never imagined I'd get one referencing Space Ghost Coast to Coast. This is truly a landmark moment. Thank you sir!
@@JKLeeds Hahah, no problem!
A fellow millennial, i see 😁
Love your stuff man. Keep it up.
Didn’t expect a space ghost coast to coast joke here, the shit was my childhood
Best Senwich tutorial I ever watched.
When you realize that the knife you used for the senwich is more useful than the trowing ones 😮
Also as an Italian the senwich made me want to taste it
Ottimo 👌🔪
I had an awful day. But a new vid of you paired with a nice cold beer should take the edge right off. Much love, mate!
Thanks brother! Enjoy the video 🙂
Now do Throwing Knives Only in DS2!
....it's dropping early July 😁😁😁
This truly is a knife to remember!
It was a real knife or death situation
0:17 Crazy? I was crazy once. They lock me in a room, a rubber room, a rubber room with rats
The beginning should have a “Bad Trip Warning” too 😂
Shoutout to the Baron for lending his aid here. What a knife guy
We had a knife time making this
@@JKLeeds now the question is whether you reuse these same voice lines for subsequent throwing knife videos, have Baron record brand new ones, or find new willing collaborators for the future?
Who knows my friend, who knows....
I've always used throwing knives in my playthroughs, even though it does shitty damage, they are great to lure enemies, it can be very useful in certain scenarios where lots of enemies are close to each other and you want to fight one at a time
I don't know how I missed this run and watched ds2 knife before this one...
but baron (big fan) voicing the knives has me fucking dying laughing
Bed of Chaos was so good it turned the video into an obscure youtube horror video from 2009
It has that effect on people sometimes
That "pew" is something else 😂
its so quiet but once i realized whats going on with the voice work i fucking LOST it. Well played. GG
Thanks, glad you liked it! 🙂
Interesting little tidbit for ya, I actually spent an ENORMOUS amount of time messing around with the sound levels in this video. It's a tricky one because I want people to be able to hear my voice and Baron's without it clashing too much
Alone for the Sounds from BaronsCastle, i've laughed soo~ hard! :'D
I lol'ed pretty hard
Let's goo it's finally out. I got something great to enjoy for the next 25 minutes now
Have fun!
@@JKLeeds really shoulda named this one "Can you beat Dark Souls without going mad?"
Really weird that you can carry 999 arrows but not knives
I remember yamfa did a similar run in 3 and when he ran into the hp issue he got around it with putting dropped throwables at the edge of the fog gate, do you think that would work in ds1?
It does. I know, because I've beaten Qualagg with only knives myself and had to do that
"Thwack yeet thwack" sun zu the art of war
Words to live by
9:11 JK Leeds shops at Sainsbury's confirmed, truly revelatory Souls lore
Haha you got me! 🤣
@@JKLeeds barely on there for a few frames, but i did wonder if i could glean anything legible from that parmesan lid lmao, also, the Giygas theme? are you ok man, if you need help please tell us lol
The sandwich bit-head me f****** dying
And now I want a Senwich. Great video and collab!!
Edit after seeing your plunge into insanity: Don’t you dare go Hollow!
It was super tasty! Glad you liked the video 😄
@@JKLeeds can’t wait for the next one!
This should be good, looking forward to the premiere
It's certainly...something 🤪😂
something good that is
My man's sanity slowly depleting was a wonder to watch.
Welcome to the Consumables Club JK, don't let Lemon's Firebomb cult try to convince you to set anything on fire. We literally just replaced the sofa.
Thanks GW! Can I install a darts board to throw knives at? 😃🔪🗡
99 str firebombs gang rise up
@@BaronsCastle I shoulda got 99 dex here, that was my error
If you manage to do this you will officially be crowned the king of dark souls, what madman would even attempt this 😂
....define "do this" 😂😂😂
@@JKLeeds complete the game with throwing knives, lol. Either way, looking forward to the vid when it's out :)
A lot would backlogs barons castle plateau, peak A lot would
@@GhostA1fourU I genuinely don't think any of them would be this stupid 😂
I reckon Ymfah could somehow make it possible
Ceaseless Sis-charge sounds like an... interesting concept
I believe you can drop some knives into the fog gates before initiating some fight (Gwyn, Sith), but Nito and Kings are still impossible 😢
Actually, Seath still would be impossible even with twice the amount of knives. His health is too high and my damage is too low
For some reason I'm getting similar vibes from this as Lemon's potato only run. Must be the overflowing damage.
Come for the knives stay for the Beloved Baron
I’ve played this game consistently for about a decade. YOU CAN SUMMON A HELPER FOR THE MOONLIGHT BUTTERFLY FIGHT?!?!?!?!
Four Kings beats knifing, massively underated joke....bravo sir bravo 😂
LMAO I got an ad during the Tick Tick Tick part and it started with tickets 💀
Best ad ever? 😂
you are insane my friend
i havent even seen the video yet and you are insane
Haha it was sure something
@@JKLeeds well the sandwit h bit made me laugh
And as someone who is actively trying to fist only elden ring or at least limgrave just for tge lils even tho im shit at challenge runs and its my first run (btw i mean fists only not fist weapons) i feel that pain
Fun fact i died so many times to the tree sentinel i can no hit him now with any weapon
The Intro reminds me of some American ads in the TV. Ads in Germany are sometimes weirder
Hey, I was just wondering what resolution do you capture your footage at? As a starting up youtuber, I'm often noticing my videos getting some absolutely abysmal compression, like practically unwatchable at times. I record at 1080p which, while not fantastic, I consider to look good enough at least, and change project settings 1440p to counteract the compression as much as possible.
Hey so firstly what software are you using? I probably do things differently than most challenge runners actually. I play on PS5 so I use the built in recording software most of the time but sometimes I use OBS.
@@JKLeeds I use OBS, with an elgato HD60 x
My man literally collabed with a youtuber just so he can record his woosh pew sounds
Absolutely amazing deal I petty the people that missed this remarkable deal
It was the perfect combo 👌
This vid will be LEGENDARY. It is possible I think at least with poison and all of that and normals. If it ain’t or is not my problem but it’s most likely possible with poison I’m rooting for u JK LEEDS
Hope you enjoy the video 😄
“Can he be poisoned? He’s a giant skeleton, what do you think?!”
Darkest Dungeon would like to know your location
Does the Red Tearstone Ring or Power Within work on the throwing knives?
Nooo, you can aim at Gaping dragons and Quelaags head to probably get enough damage to kill it!11 REDO THE RUN FOR SCIENCE!!11
I experienced existential dread at the bed of chaos part.
Me too 🤪
i honestly thought i was gonna see beans and toast being made
awwwman really got hopeful there for a second
Yeah that damage is...a bit too low 😅 don't worry tho, maybe DS2 will be better....
@JK Leeds ohhh can't wait man great videos btw ☺️
Thank you 😊 should be dropping early July 🙌
I think he might have THROWN away hos sanity after BoC.
Oh, Baron as well :D
Just needed a good knifes sleep
