Yes, you read the title correctly. In a bout of madness, I asked @MeatyJesus to mod Immolation, the absolute worst spell in the series, into Dark Souls 1. And he did not disappoint.
Get your popcorn ready. It's time to find out if we can beat the game by setting ourselves on fire over and over again.
Can you beat Dark Souls 1 with only the Immolation spell?

And another shoutout to @MeatyJesus for making the mod that made this video possible. Rumor has it he's working on DS3 version.
Gwyn have mercy on my soul.
Sry cant use ur code. I already have it😅
But great Video non the less.
Greetings from Germany
ow fun a disco run
You said you were trying to find time to play XCOM 2, but it's been 6 months and over *20 videos* since the last XCOM EU video.
So where are the promised XCOM 2 ones?
*ANSWER MEEEE!*
strategy to make seath easy:
Step 1: get the dragon ring that makes you silent
Step 2: there is no step 2. he literally cannot find you consistently
Kind of expected this to be Remastest, where Immolation serves as the pyro hand's "weapon art".
When I was making the mod and saw how badly the damage fell off late-game, I thought: "The only person who would voluntarily do this must be insane." I was correct.
Also the fact that you specifically requested it to not scale in damage like how it was in DS2 must be some kind of Immolation Stockholm Syndrome.
Anyways, good run, and see you in Dark Souls 3...
Dark immolation incoming
What about elden ring immolation?
Great job on this mod. It seemed well balanced (as in, about as "balanced" as in the other game), but with just enough changes to make it viable, just with EXTREME perseverance & skill. Perfect for Lemon to defeat his previous demons. Thanks for this! 🙂
@asterea0077 its already a spell, but you'd have just about the same power as rolling into your opponents
Lemon turned "dying with your boots on" into "dying with your boots on fire"
And there he is, with the cultured music reference... who else but you?!
(Am I going to get cancelled if I say that the sonata arctica's version is better though?!)
from "be quick or be dead" to "be the wick, and be dead"
@@SliceyMcBreadmakercertainly wasn't afraid to burn strangers, but becoming a human candle does suggest he might have a fear of the dark...
The fact that this man DIDN'T use the remastest mod (yes that's it's name) by Inferno Plus makes this a much bigger feat than I could ever imagine as that mod makes the spell actually... Good! Backlogs sir, I salute you for your willingness to put yourself through pain unknown for our enjoyment.
God, I love that mod. It's a shame that not more people know about it. Though I guess Dark Souls isn't really a game most people think to mod.
@@jehru5I played through remastest to completion with my friend for co-op! It was a very fun experience and I would highly recommend it
Naw he doesn't mod. Jank of vanilla game or nothing
Makes the spell actually? Huh?
Oh someone definitely replied before watching the video lol
This was delightful. I can't decide which is my favorite part of Lemon's runs:
The laid-back friendly banter style, the way the video's framing highlights the power level crescendo, or the fantastic speeches Lemon gives when vanquishing the final challenge.
God, this was a good monologue too!
I am genuinely baffled how he keeps writing these monologues. They are just so good.
Well, part of the monologue is just taken from the black blade npc of Ashes of Ariandel
The lore implications of a man who's only method of attack is to burn himself eternally, then linking the flame, seems to break Dark Souls on a fundamental level in a way I like.
One of the things I love most about The Backlogs is that so many other RUclipsrs are like 'Hey, let's spend several seconds mid-video talking about how many people AREN'T subscribed to me, you should NOT be like those people. Subscribe!' Lemon is just like, 'Hey check out other great people who have helped, enjoy my suffering, take care of yourself. Bye.'
It's more about the content than guilt-trips to have you join. Happy that you focus on the content Lemon.
Apparently those calls to action actually work, though, which I think is annoying to everyone.
Eh, I've seen people with a million subscribers never once utter a "like share subscribe" so I have a feeling that's not entirely true
Lemon literally added a feature to the game just to suffer for us. You gotta love this man for his dedication
The Patience Elemental cannot be stopped. Not even by intended game mechanics (or lack thereof). When all other challenges have been endured, he must create his own. For that is his fate.
He did it for the views and money I think.
@@brandonlee747 Literally everyone works for money. People tend to die if they don't eat, you know. However, there are soulless content makers who spend minimal effort to churn out easily digestible crap for the masses, and then there are people who honestly try to produce high quality stuff while maintaining their individual style. I think you've got to have a pretty bad taste to call Lemon the former of those two.
@@Lernos1well said man
Meatyjesus did... not Lemon. Read
I think I know why hollow has gasoline in a bucket. It's apparently really good for removing hornets nests
Someone's been studying the lore!
-1 point for not knowing Melon's name though :P
@@TheBacklogshey could you grant me some eyes and explain what the hell this means
@@SeventhSeraphOfficerRevolver the hollowed Lemon that does the sponsorship parts is apparently called Melon. In the ad read he doused the burning Lemon with gasoline
@@TheBacklogsI didn't even know he has a name
Was that a LISA reference in the video?@@TheBacklogs
Very nice to see this challenge continue! Thanks for suffering for our entertainment, Lemon.
Lemon has gone from being just the "Firebomb Guy" to a straight up Pyromaniac.
Maybe one day we can get a borderlands series challenge run with only incendiary damage.
I mean, fire is a solution to many problems.
Base grenade only run
Now he's the flaming man lol
Can you beat borderlands 2 by using claptrap as a metal club?
@@SNDN_LNlet’s find out
this guy died to pinwheel
I recently found out that the Vow of Silence spell from the painted world can stop the stray demon and fire sage from casting their explosions, so if your doing a less restrictive run that can help stop the magic dmg.
heck since it does no damage you could use it on most runs.
Does it work on Gwyndolin too?
Just tried it and no he ignores it@@joranvisser9070
@@joranvisser9070 It lets you see where priscilla is when she is invisible, you can avoid quelaag's AoE, as well as the Stray demon and demon Firesage's AoE attacks, among others. I think It lacks the range for Gwyndolin though. By the time you get in range for Vow of Silence to affect him, he'll be firing the bow, or teleporting. Further testing required.
Me: "Poor predictable Lemon, always picks immolation"
Lemon: "Good old immolation, nothing beats that"
I must say, I love seeing the pinwheel fight as it was actually (probably) intended.
I love the part where he said "It's Immolation time!" and immolated all over the place.
Ah, yes. Loved the ace up the sleeve on this run. Good times, good times.
I love when lemon just randomly invokes the spirit of hermes and writes a hard ass monologue just for shits and giggles
hearing the snippets of the Cult of the Lamb soundtrack playing in the background is my favorite part of the last few videos. that game has such a good OST
dunno about ds1 but in ds3 when you go to the archives and meet the crystal sage mini boss he'll teleport away if you do damage to him, but from experimenting, I learned that using toxic/poison mist on him will not trigger him to teleport away as long as that is the only thing damaging him.
"I survived because the fire inside me burned brighter than the fire around me"
Hot coffee for the Burning video!
Honestly, you could've given me a cold coffee for this one...my hands are literally on fire.
The fact that you released this while I'm at work makes me want to set myself on fire until I can watch it at home.
This is so unfair. When I light myself on fire and run into people with almost no clothing on, I get put out, hospitalized, and institutionalized.
That was very entertaining to watch. Though I was surprised at the end with Gwyn when you started to quote Sir Vilhelm from Dark Souls 3
Loved seeing the live runs and was just as fantastic a second time in the scripted version!
Loved the livestram of this so glad that you finished it. Always fun to see you find ways to overcome challenges.
LOVE YOUR VIDEOS, always makes me want to get better at dark souls and try some challenge runs myself. Cant wait to see what's next!!!!!!!!!!
Ah, immolation. The blood bullets of Dark Souls.
Thank you for the update on the community challenge run you set up, I've been wondering about that for a while and I didn't realize there was so much work to be done. I appreciate you and all the work you put in to make fans happy and entertained, keep making videos can t wait for your next one.
Good to see that 13 years later, people still replay any Gwynevere section of any Dark Souls run. Amazing chest ahead brothers.
I would love to see a dragons dogma immolation only run
Man the Vilhelm quote at the end was so good! I love how it’s almost like Lemon has become this inter-dimensional being that beats these bosses with fire and as he kills the last one explaining how they will never be strong enough for him. Very good spot for it and very good video as usual!
Came across your channel this past weekend, and honestly, your ongoing efforts and suffering have helped me maintain what's left of my joy and sanity.
Thank you.
Love the narrative you weave with this insane challenge
As always lemon love all your content, and stay strong with everything you’ll always get there eventually. Can’t wait for the one shot video, glad to know I didn’t miss it and it is still in the works
Another wonderful 30 minutes spent cannot get enough of these dark souls challenges and of your content
lemon stumbling into the Pinwheel Family Reunion is one of the funniest things I've ever seen in a dark souls game. they're just hanging out!
Always love a new video! You are very quickly becoming my favourite person to watch on RUclips!
This is awesome. The fact that it's moded in and feels like it's part of the game is amazing. On top of that the added options to how you can use the spells honestly makes the run much more interesting to watch
"Eternal suffering, now in yellow flavor."
You were sentenced to the piss pits?
I've been enjoying your videos lately
So entertaining, love them💕
Great video, man. felt very relaxed and nostalgic when watching this. Keep doing what you're doing 👍
Lemon we all really appreciate dedicating yourself to the scientific discoveries many are too impatient to attempt. Love the content! Keep up the great work!
YESSSS a new backlogs video I love these keep up the good work my friend
This was the most entertaining DS video on RUclips I’ve ever seen. Great run, I can’t even begin to fathom the amount of pain you’ve been through
Thanks lemon!
This is such a fascinating challenge run, literally modding a unique way of suffering into the game. More of this sort of thing would be cool!
Thanks Lemon...I needed that today! Love your Videos they are always funny and can cheer me up
I always get goosebumps from your speech at the end. So amazingly written ❤
Truly awe inspiring.
Many cool new strategies learned as well.
Favorite challenge runner haven't played dark souls 1 yet but feel like I know it by how much I rewatch these videos
very cool run! the mods for this game never cease to surprise me and catch my interest. though I will say, a tip for anyone struggling with Nito's sword ground attack. if you two-hand a weapon and stand still the attack won't hit you because the hitbox is on the ground and you're straddling it with that stance.
Yes, I’m so excited to watch this thanks for a new video ❤
Dungeons & Dragons Immolation: Set someone on fire and watch them suffer
Dark Souls Immolation: Set yourself on fire and suffer
Honestly this channel and another are one of those channels that even though I am already subscribed to I will just randomly stumble across one of his old episodes and be blast with Nostalgia and Binge watch them!
Honestly one game I've always wanted to see him do a challenge run of was The Surge. It is just one of those odd little games that has that interesting mix of exo suit paired with darksoulsish combat and I'd feel could be entertaining
I like to imagine Lemon spinning a wheel filled with unusual/terrible items and making an absolute banger of a video from the result. Great work!
Your commentary and sponsor ads are some of the best on RUclips. Keep up the great work man!
Another fantastic video, thanks Lemon. For people who were curious about the question at 06:25, Lautrec will take gradual countdown damage from poison arrows (I use this method to kill him safely in Anor Londo). I expect the same would happen with Poison Mist. Haven’t tried this on other NPCs, as you can’t get the necessary distance from them.
I was not prepared for the final speech vs gwyn that hit hard. Excellent video as always
I wish to offer you a thankyou for playing DS1 - I've just finished all achievements on the Xbox360 version, over 9 years after trying it and failing miserably at it. Now while I'm still a bad player, watching you play and making it look 'easy' with really silly builds over the last couple of years has given me the knowledge i was lacking all those years ago to be actually able to play and beat the game, something I thought would never happen :)
Dude thanks so much for making these vids they are always so awsome and have made me beat my first 3 dark souls games thank you
The backlogs is just alternatively built different. This mans patience is truly the stuff of legends
I am coming to really love your poetically written endings. "You lack stomach for the agony which you have brought upon yourself" is such a good line!
Thank you for an excellent use of Grime's music at the end 👌
Love the Sir Vilhelm quote at the end. Such a badass line from a relatively minor character.
Absolutely love meatyjesus. His humor is amazing. Glad you shouted him out!
I really thought I wasn't going to make the competition video, now I'm happy and have hope in my heart.
Bro that last quote hit me so hard . You are amazing human being .
Every time I see one of your videos I get excited.
Whenever I see one of your videos involving *fire* I get extra excited!
Masterclass as always ! Congratulation from France !
I rewatched the DS2 Immolation run yesterday, strange coincidence
Anyway, note taken: When out of Firebombs, become the Firebomb
Another brilliant video as per usual
4:38 Damn, I never knew the Taurus Demon could jump up that tower...that really startled me.
thank you for continuing to upload this style video, lemon. these videos are the only reason that i continue to torture myself trying to learn ds1.
Great job, lemon! The storytelling was awesome, as usual, but this time I have to give a special compliment to your choice of music. It was quite emotional to see you end the run and set yourself on fire one final time.
... Wait, that came out wrong. Oh well. You know what I mean. 💁🏻♂️
i love the knight animations you put in the begining of the videos. theire simple but funny
Awesome video lemon! I've been waiting to see this one for a while :)
I loved that he used sir vinhelms dialog at the end,
Given the quote at the end I think Ds3 is next. Excellent video lemon soon your light shall reach from the furthest rotted corners of the painted world to the ashen corners of the end of the world.
0:43 I was wondering what happened to it good to know it's being worked on
Thanks Lemon, released just in time for me to watch on the final stretch of this road trip.
All the dark souls content I've seen and I never actually knew that Gwyndolin had a back wall at the end of his arena. You learn something new everyday
Good to know that the One-Shot challenge video is still happening. Can't wait.
Every new challange run video is SUCH a gift
Lemon! Would you ever consider doing a Chrono Trigger anything challenge? Every time I hear the familiar sounds of my childhood it brightens my day, even if it's an ad lol.
You know it's a good day if the Backlogs upload another sweet challenge run video ❤
Another amazing run with another amazing speech to finish it
I've watched the DS2 Immolation run. So hope this went smoother.
I love the ability you have to make this kind of challenge, talk about the meta nuts-and-bolts in an interesting way, crack jokes about the gameplay and your own foibles, and then turn around in the end and write a monologue from the character's perspective.
Genuinely classy shit. I love your work. Great job.
Good job my friend I swear you always find ways to impress me
Completely off topic to the video, but I got the urge to replay Dark Souls 3 differently to how I ever have so I picked the cleric remembering you. I get why you dig clerics so much now! The bonking is fun!
ohh I was missing these classic Dark Souls videos
Lemon is such an absurdly good story teller. Every Video feels like a new game no matter how many times he has beaten it
hey i love your dark souls content more than any other on youtube thanks for being cool and funny
Finally i was waiting for the next video
Wild timing, I just rewatched the first one last night
I swear every video you make gets a laugh out of me I would never imagine doing these things in games.
I love the back logs!
Amazing job Lemon, and kudos to using Sir Vilhelm's monologue!
GG!
Dying to immolation must've left wicked burn on the bosses.
Still impressed that immolation only and firebomb academy vids do not feature "You are fired!" one-liner.
Oh Lemon I love how you create these psychotic videos to appease our entertainment I always look forward to watching your latest videos all the time
