Finally an upload
I was there, 2 years and 7 months ago. When the audio wouldn't cut out due to copyright claims, it was glorious
its genuinely so sad that the older and more popular the ymfah video is, the more music gets cut out from copyright. they're some of my favourite comfort videos if i need to chill and they're all slowly getting ruined
That’s what happened! I kept thinking something was bugged
I remember His Bloodborne Consumables only run. That video got shred to pieces due to copyright claims. It has almost become unwatchable because of the sheer ammount of cutouts.
I did a double check to see if my volume was up and not broadcasting. I too remember the time before dmca
Now that, was a long time ago.

@@IamRvNiX give the man some money, he deserves
@@IamRvNiX bro he suffered way longer then you had to through ads.
In case anyone is confused as to why bombs did more damage than advertised, it's because the game only shows the last bit of damage dealt, not the total damage. The fire deals damage last, so that's what we see, but the bomb hitting the enemy itself deals extra damage. Thus boss markers are inaccurate as all hell.
EDIT: and now he's explained it in video. Great. Now I feel stupid.
Nah it’s fine. Still useful information

@@wyldingone8092 i was referring to that quote from Fist of the North Star with the Dynamite 'martial artist' :P
when anyone else says consumable only: *you are not allowed to use any other weapons*
ymfah: *YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED*
I mean, saying that using spells in a consumables only run is cheating is a fair assessment, i'd say, though i could see shields being allowed. I'm mostly amazed that this absolute fucking lunatic didn't say "consumable only also means no rings and armor and similar stuff". He didn't wear that much armor to begin with but those merchant robes gave him extra souls, that's not technically consumable only.
@@bonogiamboni4830 It's consumable only as in "only deal damage through consumables"; everything else is fair.
@@serraramayfield9230 yeah, i know the actual definition is that only weapons and damaging spells are banned while shields and similar are ok, it's just that knowing ymfah's madness i was expecting him, like the original commenter said, to literally only use consumables, no shields or armor or rings, not because the rules said so but because of self hatred.
@@serraramayfield9230 Yeah, you would think so, but it doesn't seem that way given that he won't even punch the environment to get items. I just personally think that's a bit much. Against enemies and bosses and whatever, totally fair.. but not being able to punch the rock in Majula for example.. that's a little TOO dedicated to the meme-like nature of the run. If you can't punch the environment ONLY in order to get things you need, then at that point you may as well say rolling into things and breaking them or baiting enemies off ledges isn't allowed, either. Doesn't mean that I don't love and appreciate the dedication and effort put into his content. But sometimes it's just like "yeah, okay dude."
Yeah, considering this is from the creator of «I said "Bow only" not "Bow and arrows only"», this wasn't _that_ surprising, after all.

@@Brian-tn4cd yeah same
Actually done both a bow(with arrow ofc) and a crossbow run, pretty viable overall, when stacked with ROB and Leo ring. Especially crossbow, since there is no stat investment, you can end up with very high hp stamina and adp for good survivability. You could respect at late game into int+faith for sanctum, dark infused+dark clutch can get you about 900 damage per special attack.

I like how the ending theme is now muted even though it's YOUR music.
DAMN
Copyright aids
I'm pretty sure he does that when all of the copyright issues get resolved. I remember in the vid where he explained that he said it takes like 3 months or something to get the money from copyrighting his own video. I assume he removes the song so that he can get the add revenue without waiting so long.
Trust no one, not even yourself
3 years late but, you can only have one ongoing copyright claim on a video. So by claiming it himself using his own music, he denies anyone from doing it for 3 months or so which is when the video will make the most money.
"What do you want? Truly?"
ymfah: "Haven't you been watching? I. WANT. TO. DIE." *jumps in the pit*
YEES
Well, now he wants a copyright strike, apparently.
"I take the plunge YET I WONT DIE"
Light.Dark.Or something else entirely... ymfah: the third
"We can't fix that...
But we can make our lifes easier."
It sounded like something Bob Ross would've said. Almost got me crying for no reason.

metal is my favorite genre of music because of this man using powerwolf in his intros
I honestly disagree. The are countless little strategies and exploits I've learned from watching his videos. The dragonrider cheese, for one, I learned from his vids, and use in basically every DS2 playthrough I ever do. And in this one I learned the infinite brightbug glitch and that throne watcher cheese, which are both super useful. And also yeah, there was like 6 months of where I listened to nothing but Powerwolf because of his videos.

It started super innocent with dung bombs and maybe a few life crystals for a few thousand souls...but then his addiction went further.

Well DS2 is by far the easiest. It's slow and like 90% of the enemies are identical. Bloodborne is a lot faster with more dynamic enemies.
@@trequor ds3 is by far the easiest (base game at least XD)
@@halvarianknight4477 Nah, DS3 is at least fast. The hardest part about DS2 for me was learning to wait and be patient before pressing the next button in the combo.
DS1 is definitely the hardest though.
After years of watching this, I finally decided to give this a try as a challenge run; it's actually pretty fun! I'd say the worst part, was figuring out a proper Soul farming method, to maintain the amount of items I had. Easiest method I found was to farm the 5 guys outside of Straid's cell, by using Bonfire Ascetics to push the area to NG+5 or higher, then just killing them over and over again, in Covenant of Champions. That took a lot of stress off the run, although it takes a LOT of Souls; so far, over a million of my Souls are just from item restocks.
Also, I remembered to get the Engraved Gloves right away, but they only seem to trigger with knives, and so rarely, that at first I didn't even think they worked. The Iron Keep is the most stressful area so far, because the Alonne Knights are tanky, usually requiring 6 knives or 3 hex pots. So, getting through that area got really expensive, as I had to slowly permanently kill enemies so that I wouldn't waste items on my deaths against the Smelter Demon. So, that area alone probably cost me half a million Souls in restocks.
I just started Shrine of Amana, but not expecting too much difficulty. Most of Ymfah's run seems a bit over exaggerated (Lost Sinner isn't that bad if you bother to actually light furnace before fighting her :P), and progressing isn't too hard, as long as you don't rush and take out enemies (same can be said about non-challenge runs too; people think this game is way harder than it is). Hardest enemy I fought so far, is the secret Black Pursuer that spawns behind Straid's Cell. I've beaten the other Pursuers, but for some reason, this one gives me trouble and always seems to pull off some kind of BS one hit kill right before I can land the final blow (even though I have 1200 HP and fully upgraded armor). Other than that, lots of fun pelting Bosses with bombs!
It’s been a year bruv, how did the run go?
@@yaboisigismund6840 I got to the end of the Shrine of Amara without much trouble, but then ended up getting distracted by other games. Outside the grinding for buying items, it was a pretty fun playthrough.

Time to watch another masterpiece from the man himself
I've gotta start downloading these videos right after they're uploaded to preserve them before the copyright vultures take away half the music.
“What’s wrong with this game?”
Well, they made nearly every enemy _weak_ _to_ _lightning_ and instead of properly rebalancing that, they just decided to *nerf* *lightning* *into* *the* *ground* :/
Cleric still op
I always assumed that lighting spell casts got nerfed to shit to give the spell herbs purpose as it's piss easy to get piles of the strongest variant by beating up the desert thots for their fashion, despite never really needing them.
@@joshuakim5240 It wasn't just spell casts, it was damage too. And considering that even lightning infusion is barely effective, it seems to have been *all* lightning damage and not just the spells. Though the nerf was a long time ago and I don't actually remember all the details.
Fortunately, most things that are weak to lightning are _also_ weak to blunt damage. So, power-stanced Cestus, Maces, Clubs, etc. are still extremely effective. Magic damage is still very effective too, so a Magic infused Mace (given as an item drop somewhere iirc) is extremely effective for 99% (a number pulled _directly_ out of my ass) of the game.
I think ds3 has the same problem with fire. IIRC, laying as a pyromancer, you can kill Aldritch in 3 hits with Chaos Bed Vestiges. Then you get hit by the second dlc and then you have to learn how to play the game.
@@ethanbottomley-mason8447 tbf outside of pre patch luck builds dark souls 3 was pretty balanced. you could trivialize a lot of the game with basically any build (aside from pure faith maybe lol)

Lightning damage wise is still ok in DS2 even on early builds compared to how shit it is in DS3, you just get way less spears and have to buy like 7-8 copies of the spell from Licia and get like 30 atunement to get the the point of having 20+ spears we had at launch.
They were super OP at launch so forcing you to spend 15 or so levels in attunement to get to the same point as 1.0 spears seems reasonable.
@@lunarbreeze5019 I dunno 2 spears for like 25 Faith and god knows how much attunement and duplicate spears to have an okay amount, plus the fact that they deal honestly sh*t for damage against most bosses... i mean look at magic and pyromancy - you can have a viable build with both of those right off the bat, but Faith just takes so long to get going and many of its better spells are locked in late-game (Velstadt's soul for Sacred Oath, Sunlight Blade is in Shrine of Amana or bought off Straid, etc.) Its just... disappointing, and kills my motivation to even try.
Don't get me wrong, DS3 Faith is still uber-terrible, but I think DS2 is worse - mostly because in 3 it feels as though Faith was meant for pure-support, not really damage.
@@Jonaegh If you ever feel like having some glorious faith gameplay in DkS 3 check out the "Cinders" mod for it. Has a Nexus page, it's own website and stuff. Good support too, dude (or dudes, Idk) been working on it for quite some time. Anyway, my point: It's not some stupid "you got ultra powerful and faceroll the game lmoa" mod but it rebalances some numbers, introduces some spells of its own and some from prior/later games. Good stuff.
@@JinFreeks Sounds very interesting! I'll have to check it out sometime
DS3 Faith is broken OP. 800 AR Saint's Bident at SL 125... people think I'm cheating. I often get hatemail for 2-shotting them.
Then you pull out the infinite hold Lightning Arrow, and just hold it and release it at random when your enemies are close for guaranteed roll catches free of danger.
It's cancer. Pure unfiltered cancer that needs a nerf. Making the hold cost stamina/fp would fix it.
I've just realised how massive DS2 is compared to the other two
Quantity over quality.
@@PowerfulSkeleton ds2 is awesome
@@PowerfulSkeleton Lost Izalith
@@PowerfulSkeleton Agreed. But it's still a good game though
@@PowerfulSkeleton ds1 still has the worst area and the worst boss ever
This mans, is why I still play all of the dark souls. He makes me want to challenge myself.
I have a deep love of Dark Souls 2 as it was the souls game that really sucked me in and got me into my Gitting Gud and Self Improvment mentality. I didn't die because of lag or some other excuse. I died because my ADP wasn't high enough and I mistimed my rolls. Seeing the game 'broken' in such an interesting way was a WONDERFUL experience. I eagerly await every single one of your videos. They are like the weirdest most entertaining things ever!
that distorted snake eater when you died juggled my brain cells 10/10
also my god this video is a masterpiece definitely some of your best work I mean there's so much attention to detail when it comes to the memes and background music its incredible. my 2 favorite parts of the video are when you escalate the mario sunshine music from regular to all-star to megalovania as the difficulty increased and when you did the fake out with the way-hey-hey it was so good. Sometimes it might seem like such editing effort for jokes people might not even notice could not be worth it but I assure you it is and people do notice, or atleast I do.
love the video keep up the good work
This video has taught me that any time lightning seems like the clear weakness, use dark instead

26:56 “lowly times these are” says the chick who has been given more souls than she can possibly ever use already 😂
After some of the bosses (I think the sunken queen, whatever her name is) he got like 72k and I was like "look enough for a single brightbug"
I always heard her say "lovely" lol. It's kinda more fitting for her character I guess
I dont know what’s more crazy the fact that you just did this... or the fact that you made it a guide

21:15 Is this "Katyusha" playing? My Russian heart is glad.
Yes, it is, it's alzo a cover by Igor Presnyakov
How can I feel patriotic with a country that I haven't been to in my entire life?
Yep in some old videos i heard "Kalinka-malinka" and some other songs, that so familiar to my heart. И конечно, спасибо всем зелёным ананасам за субтитры)

Me: this game is pure torture
Ymfah: *not torture enough!!!*
Right? I know people think that DS3 is too easy, but I'd rather have the smoothe rolls of DS3 than the clunky atrocity of DS2.
I don't get why people shit on ds2 so much, for me it was much more enjoyable than 1 and i couldn't even stomach 3
@@jakelangley624 yeah, ds2 is a great game if people Just took the time to play it
@@jlf6458 i feel like a lot of hate is not deserved especially seeing most criticisms are just it's not ds1 or by big M so its bad
@Christian Guillot Elana is one of the best bosses in this franchise, with Veldstat it's basically O&S but with O as a caster. Much better than Nashandra being soo easy and boring.
The only lame thing that she can summon him multiple times and on NG+4 and up the skeletons hit way too hard, I guess.

Gosh everything about this vid is so great. The edits. The info. The unholy realization that the fume knight will break you. The screaming that comes immediately after that realization
Inspired me to try this run on my own. It's actually a ton of fun.
Fantastic video.
