I wish he was able to acquire the Crissaegrim, because he probably would have lost his mind seeing how powerful it was. I imagine him walking around and million cutting everything. Great work though Jared, you finished your journey and became the wind!
Chat was filled with so many passive aggressive "omg how..." "ugh he did it again" "finally he figures this super fucking obscure thing out I nearly died waiting for that!" moments, it was like watching RUclips comments posted during a regular ProJared Plays! video. Nice one, chat. Also that ending. A: "I'm out." M: "I'm gonna go hit that, k?" R: "Sure" M: "Squeeee~!"
It was a shame I couldn't follow along live, but I enjoyed all three of the VODs. I'm really impressed that you were able to get nearly full completion on your own.
Definitely one of my favorite playthroughs that you've done, Jerd. I am tempted to make a full on best moments if I get the time. Lots of amazing moments in this one.
I enjoyed seeing you play this blind. I played it for the first time about a year ago and it instantly became one of my favorite games of all time. I was more frustrated by chat trying to get you to cheat than I was with you not already knowing everything. Also, I exclusively watch your videos on my TV. They are absolutely some of my "shows" these days.
Konami actually didnt gave Iga and his team a lot of budget to make the game (and future games), so thats why you hear those stock sound effects Its amazing how much they able to do with so little
Demons Crest was a really fun one and so is Shadow Hearts. Good luck trying to find a copy of it though, it's super rare and probably expensive as hell.
Man........ first the clock. Then seeing him casually hit and break the block before draculas room only to completely ignore it and press on. I'm dead.
Really missed out most of the stream and therefore, missing out on Jared's reacion to finally figuring out how to open the 2nd statue in the clock room. But that reaction is golden lmao!
Fun fact, IIII is just as correct as IV. Both are acceptable. IIII is actually used on the Coliseum gates. But specially in regards to watches and clocks IIII is often used instead of IV anyway. One story says Charles V of France commanded IIII used because he felt IV was unlucky. An English cathedral was said to have used it because it was easier to understand. I’ve also heard it said that because IV represents Jupiter IIII to not be pagan? Either way it’s technically correct, even as far as Antiquity.
Definitely another vote for Bloodstained to be played at some point. Bloodstained is like a combination of SOTN, Aria of Sorrow, and Order of Ecclesia. That being said: Also hoping for Order of Ecclesia and Portrait of Ruin to be played too someday.
That is indeed a verse from the bible, but his gasping sarcasm is too hilariously distracting, and you're one of the few to notice you're just fighting dracula's chair! The snorkel was changed from the original japanese because it wasn't obvious it enabled water exploration; also it's never mentioned but the wolf is the only form that can swim, and you need its smaller hitbox to trigger the upsidedown map tiles but don't need the gravity boots. Richter mode is one hell of a challenge, basically you can't do anything alucard can but you're still expected to beat all the bosses, he still has the super jump though. Each square of both maps account for 0.1% towards the total completion, last I checked the max is 201.6% with a required library card to escape dracula's room. Been a long time since I've seen this game lockup lol 3:50:00 This secret is probably the most obtuse one in the entire series, you gotta break both sides of the boulder in the middle of the room first, then enter it as a bat and exit the opposite side as a wolf (or visa-versa) to open the doorway in the bottom left; same thing for the inverse castle, but I've no idea how the hell anyone is supposed to figure it out without looking it up. 5:14:00 That's the entrance to the saturn exclusive area, forget why they cut it in the ps1 release, but frustrating they didn't readd it for ports afterwords. Bloodstained Ritual of the Night is very much inspired by this, but with extra corny acting and a significantly more sensible way to get the best ending. Anyway glad you had a blast completing it!
@ProJaredVOD I hope you will play Catherine as a blind play through. It is a great platform Puzzler with a story that will be fun to watch you uncover and make choices. Also, if you have never played FEZ, oh my GOD your platforming skills would be awesome to watch you play. That and the puzzle solving.
I know it’s not on the nes or snes like Jerd was talking about games he wanted you play. But I would love to see you play through Ico and Shadow of the Colossus for the PS2 Or the HD Ports or the remake of SotC.
Oh, those are great suggestions! I second Shadow of the Colossus if it hasn't been played before, I think that one in particular would be relatively well-known.
The Roman numeral is actually in the older style. IIRC, they didn't actually start doing IV until after the the fall of Rome. And yeah, I throw you on my TV every night you upload to PJP. I don't usually watch vods because I'm not so into the streaming format, but been waiting to see you play this for a while.
It is typical for clocks to use the Roman numeral IIII instead of IV. I grew up with a clock like this at home, which made it confusing when I first learned roman numerals.
You missed 4 more squares of secret room, 2 each castle. Near where you found the sword familiar. Open the map, in the hallway below it, in the Coliseum, there is another breakable ceiling. You almost found it when attacking there.
He got those in this video. The boss room will be 200.4% He's missing the 1 room in each castle at the beginning where that tunnel is with that obscure puzzle walking through with the bat and wolf.
Sorry that my comment is not about the gameplay per say but after watching the 3 parts of this VOD is one of the reason I don't really go on Twitch anymore, chat is so annoying with the backseating, especially when he wants to play this game blind. I try not to read it but like in this game it's almost the third of the screen. I still enjoyed it but not as much as the gameplay channel.

Dracula: Tell me, what were Lisa's last words? Mario: Mamma Mia. Dracula: Ah...Sarcasm
The clock room. That moment in the clock room made this entire playthrough so worth it; thanks Jared!
So.......Bloodstained in the future maybe?
I support that one guy's suggestion to play Demon's Crest. That's a good one for secrets and stuff, and it's classic Capcom.

I wanna see Jared play Bloodstained now~
same love me some RotN
waifuvania basically
would be fun to watch
100%
First played through it in November 2023, was a great game
Dude great call 👍

Happy birthday Jared. Here's to many more videos of your content. I appreciate you bro! 🫶
Thank you!!!

I hope you do the Richter Mode as well 🎉 what a great VoD
I've really gotta give this game a full playthrough
Amazing series to watch. Thank you

Its amazing how much they able to do with so little
Omg, he gave me a shout-out since I watch him on my TV!
Getting a great chuckle at Jared figuring out the clock puzzle
@3:04:00 if i remember correctly, we do weigh the raw spaghetti and use 100g per person, fits pretty well for us ^^
Demons Crest was a really fun one and so is Shadow Hearts. Good luck trying to find a copy of it though, it's super rare and probably expensive as hell.
Jared, you are totally my “show”.
A very entertaining playthrough. Cheers Jared!
Alundra for PS1 would be a cool blind playthrough 👍
2:34:27 Haha damn I don’t think I’ve ever seen Jared that pissed over one objective. 😂😂😂

Richter mode is pretty fun. Being able to move pretty much anywhere immediately and using fighting game inputs.
Can't believe he missed a Crissaegrim drop.

Final Fantasy Dimensions and Thief would be great blind first playthroughs
Did he ever find the sword brothers familiar? I fell asleep while watching Jared play?
He got the sword familiar, but never learned the sword brothers spell.
@@y2a1979 ahh I'm glad he did
awesome series, can't wait for part four where you do Richter mode. (I.e. start a file with the name Richter for classic play).
I agree with this person who identifies as myself. Jk didn't feel like editing, Happy belated birthday by the time you read this.
I know it’s not on the nes or snes like Jerd was talking about games he wanted you play. But I would love to see you play through Ico and Shadow of the Colossus for the PS2

Reciter- CAPITALISM HO!!
My wife absolutely loves Reciter and if you ever do play that you’ll instantly have a new follower lol

2:17:00 accurate
he switched straight to the demon to click that button, no way did he not have a spoiler for that
Alundra 1 & 2, Monsterseed, Jade cocoon 1&2 or Azure dreams all PS1
2:33:21 I’m doing that right now!
Sorry that my comment is not about the gameplay per say but after watching the 3 parts of this VOD is one of the reason I don't really go on Twitch anymore, chat is so annoying with the backseating, especially when he wants to play this game blind.

Did Jared actually figured out how to open the statue of the clock?
Yep!
2:34:27 😂😂😂
@@MateMagyar88 It took him so long to realize the Stopwatch subweapon is a watch
Luck mode let’s play channel make it fucking happen it’s Jared’s perfect match with the drops you get there
Can I get Jared to play 7th saga
I wish he would play Infernax
Well, yeah, it's a holy symbol. J for Jesus.
Did you already play the OG Tomb Raider Trilogy? Those games are super fun to play and watch
i watch everything on tv, including you, except on the phone at work. and sometimes youre on my tv but im lookin at my phone... ya know
Ah yes getting to 200% but you need to exploit glitches in the water and stairs area
Snorkel of Vlad!
I wish chat told him the dog could swim instead of just jumping all the time and transforming
He should randomize this.
Hellyeah you did a first time playthrough (almost) any% speedrun in 13.31.xx. Now try Vampire Survivors wich got Inspiration from this game. Pls.
I keep shouting stop watch and nothing happens
Gesundheit
Prime sub on Twitch for you from me.
Because despite it driving nuts how many secrets you missed, it was entertaining.
I kinda find it frustrating how often Jared doesn't look to see if the enemies have dropped anything.
And worse essentially giving up on new weapons 'cause he thought the Alucard Sword was the strongest.
Go for a 100% run next time.
Cause this was quite a bit away from that.
For the record, you still had 6 more rooms to find.
Jared, you're not old enough to be a boomer.
