I actually love the empty flask animation! It's like you said, you immediately go "shouldn't my guy know there's nothing left" and then Miyazaki appears and is like "well then shouldn't you know there's nothing left too?" and I'm like yes sir, thank you sir what a fool I was
Hahah yep- i realized this after the edit
It punishes you for it, it's hilarious. 😂
Excactly my thoughts. You articulated well.
But you can also easily missclick it in the heat of the moment, the fact that you're unable to cancel that animation is just.... tragic, sometimes.
@@MattBG67 well I would love devs that do that, then love devs that doesn't do that, it is always good that devs has their own thought about how to make a game, even we don't like it
In before “I miss one room Jack”
🤣😂😂 thanks dood
Resi 0 critique and Elden Ring in the same week. We are blessed.
Playing with my son has been the best way to experience Elden Ring. Passed him the sticks for the 30th time fighting Radahn and he beat it and we screamed and it was fucking beautiful. I know ill hold on to these memories when he has kids of his own.
Man thats beautiful
That's so nice, father playing videogames with his son, wish more parents were accepting of videogames but atleast some do enjoy gaming
unless he shoots u in the head!!!
This is pure af, good job being a cool parent
Absolutely wonderful video from somebody who's quickly becoming one of my favourite gaming youtubers. Amazing work mate 👏
YOU WATCH HIM TOO?!!????!!
Thanks man!! Appreciate it very much 🙏🏻
You’re my new favorite youtuber! Such high quality content. I’m glad your red dead vid got randomly recommended to me.
Praying for him to not sellout
It got recommended to me too! And I watched it and since then I watched and liked all his videos but I didn't subscribe yet, he drops a video once a month which is not enough for me but if he drops a video every week I'm definitely subscribing. We have the same feelings and thoughts for the same games which is dope.
@@srtoushh.9773 bruh. If you like his videos, just subscribe to him. Wtf is this way of thinking of yours? "If he uploads more often, I'll sub" 🤦♂️
@@PauloR2T the way you're thinking I guess you've subscribed to the whole world but that's not me, if I really don't keep up with the youtuber there's no need to subscribe because when he drops it will be recommended to me.
@@srtoushh.9773 bruh you’re killin me. 😂
That final fight with the avatar fighting ost was so hype man. Had a big smile through all of it haha
yeah dude
I absolutely love how Elden Ring looks, unlike souls or bloodborne, the world actually feels redeemable, like it's possible to save it.
as a souls vet this has quickly become my favorite aspect of elden ring! ive always loved the hopeless, desolate atmosphere of the souls games (and bb is straight up vile) but the vaguely comfy vibes of ER are a nice change of pace that the open world fits nicely with.
The entire underground map is horrifying though, fuck them ants lmao.
@@fuq_anncoulter4036 For sure, When playing through bloodborne (my first souls-like game) I always felt hopeless and scared, but in elden ring, I feel like I actually have the strength to save the world SPOILERS At the end of Goldmask's quest, when you find him dead, with his Mending Rune next to him, I felt a renewed sense of purpose, to save the Lands Between
@The Rotten💯 Like in Limgrave, during the day, you hear the beautiful music and the sounds of nature if you're just hanging around, but at night, you hear the screaming of those who have been crucified, for some reason
@The Rotten💯 this is the reason I chose the age of order ending, it reforms the world, instead of destroying it or abandoning it
That's something my brother and I felt too! We noticed right away that compared to previous games, Elden Ring had by far the most colorful and creative looking world compared to previous Souls games. We thought even the enemy designs were a lot more creative and imaginative.
It's refreshing to see someone who isn't completely versed in Fromsoft games enjoy and praise the experience they offer. This video is seriously fantastic and after watching some of your other videos, I can say that you are one of the best gaming channels on this site. It's criminal that you only have a 100k subs with how great your videos are
The best anecdote I can think to mention about how good Elden Ring is was the time me and my friends were circlejerking about a lot of the annoyances we had with certain elements, UX design stuff, pointlessly obtuse quests, reuse of bosses etc., and one of our other friends who hadn't played it asked "so is this game good, or...?" We instantly said, without thinking, that yes this is probably one of the best games of AT LEAST the last five years. Even despite a bunch of things in the game that I don't care for, it's still a masterpiece.
You know you "love" something when you can accept it despite its shortcomings. I feel the same way honestly. There are things in Elden Ring that I wouldn't tolerate in other games, but because it provides a special experience, I can't help but enjoy it anyway.
I think it's 100% fair to consider it top 10 greatest of all time when ALLOWING for nostalgia and influence.
@@ZephyBlaze77 top 10 all time? It's not even a top 3 fromsoft game
youre prob like 18
@Hugo Fergusson bb is prob the worst souls game from made, besides from demons souls that is not bad but i didnt like it, i cant see why people love bb so much, but i respect it, the game has a cool story, its just that the bosses and the level scenario is so bad.
Your videos are fantastic. 😇
Nice to see you here, your videos are great too!
Woah! Hi Sphere Hunter! Thank you!
obligatory DO A COLAB!!!
BRO TWO OF MY FAVORITE RUclipsRS!? WOOOOOH!
But yours aren't, The Sphere Hunter
Seeing you have that HOLY SH1T moment beating Margit was awesome, reminds me of fighting/beating nameless King or maliketh. Gael too. After 400 hours of elden ring go back and play bloodborne & dark souls 3 my dude.
This was my FIRST Soulsborne game. I completley missed the fact that there was a tutorial because I thought falling in the hole would kill me. Every single time i defeat a boss now after trying to perfect what i know from playing for about 35 hours now is amazing. I feel like a god among men and that I could do anything. I even went and killed Tree Sentinel. Currently on a later game boss and I feel like a tiny ant that cannot do damage
Going out on a limb here are you stuck on the fire giant?
@@lucalinadreemur9448 weirdly enough most new ppl to soulsborne do fire giant pretty fast
@@inkytanku8935 im new and too underleveled for even the capital, dont know where to go to level now :(
Man, when you put on the Avatar combat theme during that boss battle... chills, literal chills. :)
It's a crime that you've got only 100k subscribers. You deserve much more already. Your videos are absolutely phenomenal, and after I binge watched all of your videos (some of them even twice) I'm 100% sure that You're my favourite gaming youtuber! Keep up the good work Jack! And be happy in your new home :)
And I know how it is to live in such a small apartment. Im writing this comment from a computer that is two steps from my bed, three steps from my "kitchen" and four to my bathroom :p
I FEEL YA, and thanks for the kind words ❤️
What's a bathroom?
Agreed, it is a crime! I think Jack has brought together the key elements: tight edits, clever subtle comedy, scripted but doesn't sound like it's being read, appropriate pacing. A lot of RUclipsrs have some of these but it's a rare treat to find one with all of them.
Ah thanks Chris!
19:54 THAT'S why people play souls games, for that incredible sense of achievement when you finally beat a boss that's been turning you into paste for days, "Holy shit I did it" moments are so satisfying to finally get.
You’re one of the most genuine ytbers out there honestly, seeing you best Margit and feeling as accomplished as I did when I got the best of that boss made me smirk. Glad things are going well with the new house fam
❤️❤️
it's better than drugs man
@@cheeto.burrito oh it depends
@@cheeto.burrito with enough dosage of dmt you can enter into the elden ring world and beat that boss with your own hands
Elden Ring is just so incredible, I've already put nearly 200 hours into it and it only came out a month ago. It really is something special. Also, don't listen to the people who tell you you're playing the game wrong if you use summons, play the game how you want to. You're probably one of the most underrated creators I've come across. It is criminal you don't have as many subscribers as you should. Keep up the great content man! Congrats on 100k and you're new house, can't wait to see more from you! :)
Thanks so much!!
its wrong tho :o
But ofc they can play it wrong if they prefer, thats cool
@@BenjoCovers How is it wrong to use a mechanic that the devs put in on purpose? thats like saying its wrong to aim down sights in an fps because it makes precise shooting easier.
Tell me you get no bitches without telling me you get no bitches
@@yellowsaurus4895 Look, it just depends what u call wrong. Is it wrong to use training wheels on your bicycle? Debatable but u surely wont get the real cycling experience and every experienced cycler will tell u so. "but the bicycle manufacturer made training wheels on purpose" my ass
Jack - "I'm really excited."
Me - "Me too."
"The dream is free, the hustle is sold separately." Good job my dude on the 100k subs and the house. You earned it! Cant wait to follow you though the next chapter of your channel.
Thanks so much!
For the empty potion animation thing and other types of animations like that one are there to basically tell the player you need to focus on all your resources so that you don’t get caught in a lengthy animation it just keeps the player engaged and makes you more aware of what you can and can’t do in the moment
A lot of the things you struggled with are taught to you at the beginning of the game inside the cave of knowledge, in particular 2 handing and equipment management. I feel like a lot of people miss this though(where the first ghost is then drop down) and unless you Google 'how to' you'd just never know. I hope in future they give a comprehensive tutorial on all the basics like equipment, weapon slots, spells, and stat requirements/scaling. It would make life so much easier for newer players.
Hey Jack, I've been binge watching your vids last few days, and gotta say ur channel is freaking awesome. Love ur commentaries, editing style, music... hope for the best for u dude.
Ikr same here. I just discovered it this afternoon and I've been binge watching ever since. Love his sense of humor, the editing, just everything. I wish him the best also
Thank you!!
@@JackSather Did you buy the house with RUclips money?
@@TheRealScurred haha no i'm not making house money on youtube yet, it helped at the end of the process a bit though!
That finale of beating Margit is the whole driving factor behind the soulsborne games. They're so good at driving you and pushing you until you finally beat it. They want you to overcome them, but they want you to know that it was a challenge. The whole game is one giant art piece and I love from soft for it every time.
The reaction at 19:53 is the reason why i hope FromSoft never, EVER, make's their games any less difficult than they are now. No easy game warrants such a satisfying reaction that i too have experienced mostly from these kinds of games. Never change, FromSoft
I’m really glad you made a video covering Elden ring. I’ve already clocked up about 110 hours. As a long time fan of the souls series I couldn’t be happier. I haven’t had this much fun playing a video game since red dead 2 tbh. Keep up the great content!
This was amazing. Everything youve said here was something i thought going into my first souls game years ago, from the pure blinding focus of mastering a boss to the overwhelming joy of finally beating them. Youre right, makes you almost feel like a kid again. And your channel makes me feel new to youtube again, just good quality content i stumbled across out of nowhere. Hell yeah man.
Went to school with Jack, genuinely one of the best dudes you will ever meet! Keep up the great work Jack! Love your reviews, always leave me informed and keep me laughing
Elden Ring is my first Souls game as well, and this video is cathartic-and so well put together and articulated. I had so many of the same reactions to the same parts in the game, had the same struggles with a few of those difficult characters. And the process of discovery across so many of the game’s mechanics and world, it might be my favorite video game of all time now. It’s amazing.
That first area with the knights, and the one knight with the shield and spear. That’s my comfort area now-I’ll go back to that site of grace to rest, and test out how powerful I am now by killing that knight, usually in one or two hits now 😁
I loved watching this all unfold live on stream with the struggle to defeat Margit, as well as loving this video
FTMN YES. Glad to hear :) i’ll be back to streaming very soon
No offense man, but have you played the game yourself? I don’t get how people have time to watch hours of someone else streaming a game. I work full time as an electrician and when I finally do have some free time, I stink every minute I can into playing. I’m just curious, not trying to be overly critical
@@Chalaxandler nah, i haven't played it myself
you’re amazing man, your content is top quality and you deserve everything good that life’s been throwing at you!!
Thank you!!
Agree with posts below. Just found channel recently and love content, tone and relatability. Kudos from Scotland and carry on good work
I made it to 105th level on my first charecter and 148th level on my second before I finally burned out on it. Amazing game.
Man, watching you killing Margit was so good. Please, record when you accomplish more great battles like that
Haven’t even watched it yet but I know it’ll be great Jack.
just to let you know you missed the tutorial in the cave you start in after you die to the first boss. also the empty flask animation i think was made solely for nee players to get punished for not managing their resources properly and just mashing heal. It makes you always want to look at the flask until you remember the amount through memory. That’s just a small thing though and the rest of your criticisms were spot on. the inventory actually used to be worse in other souls games cause there was no way to filter items it’s just all the souls players are so used to it no one has complained i guess. Good video as per usual and looking forward to every future upload
I've watched the ending to this video so many times as it's so wholesome: Jack reflecting on what's to come, the Zelda music and fade tp black, it's beautiful.
You beat Margit on your own!! I was 6 hours in when I finally beat him and I had the jellyfish and Rogier helping me. I also wasn't a souls fan prior to Elden Ring but I love Elden Ring so much. Fantastic video Jack, really love the content :))
Thank you!!
I know this is kind of old now, Don't let anyone ever backseat game for you. Fromsoft is a great company with a great fan base, that being said the fan base can be quite toxic. Primarily when it comes to gatekeeping how to play the games. If you want to play Bloodborne fist only you play Bloodborne fist only, if you want to be a miracle build in dark souls 3 you be a miracle build, a God damn it if you want to summon help in elder ring you summon you some goddamn help.
This video touches on a really cool phenomenon with souls games that I haven’t heard many people talk about! There’s this weird thing that happens when you get your ass kicked and get really salty and you kind of hate the game. But the satisfaction of adapting and overcoming is so strong that the frustration kind of retroactively turns into enjoyment.
Great video!
Funny that, PC gamers loved Cyberpunk 2077 by adapting and overcoming the bugs and enjoyed the storyline. But Console gamers declared it the worst game ever just because they can't adapt and overcome the bugs. Now the same console gamers declared this game as the best game ever.
the avatar music over the margit fight is the most fitting thing i have ever seen in my life
For your videos being usually longer than 8 minutes they're well paced, I love it
Happy for you man you deserve it, great video as always! Would love to see some more of your journey through the game, I know it's not really your usual style of content but I'm sure many would agree.
Your channel feels like a fresh new enthousiatic perspective when talking about video games. As a soulsborne veteran it's also great to hear that you've clicked with the souslborne formula. I had the same experience playing bloodborne on ps4 back in 2015. I actually bounced off of it twice before it clicked and now it's in my top 3 games of all time. I'm having a blast with Elden Ring too. Kepp up the great content!
Thanks so much!
19:54 perfectly sums up what makes elden ring and other souls like games so special
There _is_ a tutorial that teaches the basics, BTW. It's in the area you wake up in after dying to the very first boss in the Chapel of Anticipation.
And people, if you don't like the experience of bashing your head against that Margit-shaped wall, don't! There is _so_ much to see in Limgrave and the Weeping Peninusula down south. Don't rush to Stormveil Castle! Not only do you not have to, but by exploring these lands too late, you'll be far too overleveled.
Also, don't worry about experiencing the game the "authentic" way. It's a game. Play however you have most fun. You can always try a more difficult style on a later playthrough.
Welcome to the adrenaline rush! Love how this vid is paced, absolutely cool to see how many more people join in on Elden Ring due to its accessibility with an open world ♥️
I have to say, that your style of telling us about games is just perfect! Keep it up!
I couldn't be happier for you. You do some great content and speak to me on alot of levels when it comes to those nostalgic throwbacks you cut to in your videos. Looking forward to more videos and maybe a tour of the new place once you are all settled. Great job on the 100k+ subscribers as well.
Hope you're move went well, you keep knocking those videos out, with all the space you have!
The gerudo Valley song is one of my favorite of any game music 😇 Well, maybe from that era of n64 console being new and relevant. Also, love alot of the sound bites you use, and mainly the commentary of your experiences in your content. Truly entertaining and enjoyable to hear someone passionate about the same things I am also passionate about too. I'm sure alot of the subs can agree 🤝
Tyty!!
Aye dood big congrats on all the huge achievements. (Specifically talking about defeating Margit lol). You continuously 1 up your previous videos and your editing is so freaking good. You 100% nailed everything I think and feel about this game, and I don't think I've enjoyed any single-player game more than this. The sheer satisfaction/euphoria of defeating the toughest bosses in this game is what video games are all about. Keep up the solid work, brother!
Thanks Chris!! Appreciate the kind words!
i love the way you zoom in zoom out during the video it really kept me finding this fun to watch
Definitely appreciate the music from avatar at the end 👌
Hell yeah, another Jack video!!!! Awesome work every time, looking forward to watching!
Thanks!!
"That guy used to be a problem for me" is one of the best feelings in a FromSoft game. Great work as always--congrats on the move!
16:11
While I agree with the room for evolution idea, I find that particular mechanic pretty solid actually. The game is forcing your character to perform an "oopsie" animation so that you are punished if you are a pot spammer or panic healer. Also gives you an extra reason to occasionally peek at your resources as you deplete them during combat - pretty neat feature overall.
Man, I am so glad I discovered your channel some time ago. Thank you for constantly putting a smile on my face every time I watch one of your videos.
As a long times souls fan, you captured what makes these games amazing. Great video. 🙂
High praise!! Thank you!
These videos are always fun and interesting! Thank you for the amazing content!
I look forward to videos that take more than a day or two to pump out.
Love your videos man, your editing is so great. Your experience with Margit reminds me so much of my first Dark Souls playthrough, that incredible feeling of beating a though boss made me fell in love with the game (and the exploring).
Also, I know it's hard to learn things in this game, like two handing weapons or in my case the Guard Counter, which rocks! But the game actually tells you all this info. It's always written in the pop up tutorials.
we value quality over quantity, so i don’t mind waiting 2 weeks or longer for a fantastic video from you. congratulations on your house!
Thank you!! Working hard to get the vids out quicker 🙏🏻
The empty potion animation is there literally to get you killed for potion spamming or not paying enough attention lol
congrats on the 100k my man, your content is phenomenal and I'm blessed that i get to see this journey from early on!
So glad you popped up in my recommended, your videos are so well made it’s incredible! Such amazing and well done content, you deserve so much more attention.
I’ve just found your channel today man, and I’m loving it. I work as a designer in the industry and the amount of genuinely good takes you have on things like design, in particular your thoughts on Red Dead 2 and Elden Ring, is really cool to see.
I really felt it when you talked about beating Margit, and how Elden Ring had made you feel something so profoundly for the first time in a long time. It was exactly the same for me. And beating Margit is right up there amongst my favourite moments in a video game ever.
Congrats on your new house and I wish you nothing but the best for the future man, keep on making awesome content because I’ll keep coming back 😄
Thanks dude!! Very much appreciate that
Honestly my favorite reviewer right up there with General Sam. Your success is very well deserved Jack!
Love sam! Thank you!
Congrats on 100k! holy shit almost halfway to 200k and you deserve it! Fucking loved the video man, finally got around to being able to sit down and watch all the way through. I fully delved into playing Elden ring myself over the last 2 weeks and haven't felt this feeling while playing a game in a really long time, Hoping to see you come back to streaming soon when you get settled in your new place, your streams were a great time. Keep it up man you got great things ahead for you!
Thanks so much dude!!
What a nice experience it is for the veterans of souls games to see a newcomer enjoying the mechanics and getting into what makes these games great, it´s like seeing a small bulb blooming in your hands into a beautiful flower, getting good
Now grab your rivers of blood and go make people as angry as possible in pvp, that is the core of this community, and we love it.
Nice videos, keep up the good work
I am a new subscriber from your ubisoft video and I watched almost all.of your old videos. I gotta say I like you style of content and reviews. I was not expecting you'd play elden ring honestly but I am pleased to see it. I've been playing the souls games for 8 years almost and seeing someone new play, its funny but I also cheer you on as you finally triumph every hurdle. Great video man. Keep up the great work. And your growth as a youtuber motivates me to work on my own video ideas. I'm happy for you
EDIT:also AMAZING use of the avatar fight music. Love that touch
Haha finally someone mentions the avatar music! Thank you!
Dude, your videos are great. So fun to watch. Keep it up!
Thank you!!
I can't believe how many people missed the tutorial sign that literally reads "the cave of knowledge", it explains all the controls
Congrats on the house and 100k subscribers! We all looking forward to watching this channel BLOW UP!!!
Thanks Connor!!
I hope for more success and happiness to come your way man, glad you experienced the gift of git guddening synonymous with souls games and it being with this masterpiece.
Thank you haha
great video, watching you kill margit reminded me of my first time killing the pursuer in ds2 and made my day
Hi, new to your channel from your Ubisoft video. Haven’t subbed to a new video game essayist in AGES but you made me laugh aloud in the supermarket so, had to sub.
Side note - what’s the track at 2:00? 🙏 please/thank you
Just binged your videos! Very entertaining! Keep at it
this was a really well made video, very nice to watch! naturally liked and subbed.
Yusss thanks dood
Best content I've come across on RUclips in so long, happy for you and long may you reign my Elden Lord 🙏🏼
Thank you!!
Congratulation on reaching 100,000 subscribers and your new home man! Hope to see more awesome content from you in the future. Good luck!
Really happy for you man! Love all your videos and can’t wait for 2 room Jack!
So far the best hype video for this video game for outsiders, I hope this game is as big as Skyrim, and the gamer collective consciousness becomes even more skilled
Congrats on the house jack ! Can’t wait to see more content and where the journey takes ya
I'm amazed by the quality of this video. I just watched your Witcher video, and I was impressed.
oh man, i just found your channel today, watched a bunch of them, loved them all. And now on this one you announced you bought a house!! is like watching the first season of a Saga. i will definitely click the bell for notification.
The funny editing, the good gameplay, the sincere moments, such a great video.
Could you make a video covering Ghost of Tsushima?
What's there to talk about though.
Would love to one day! Maybe when it comes to PC, the video list is long atm 😅
Love your videos, always look forward to your new releases. I haven’t gotten to play too too much of elden ring but I can’t wait to jump back in.
The bit with the Revenant jumping at you with the start of Down With The Sickness was just badass and hilarious all in one.
i am really loving your content, i think you put a lot of effort into it and it shows. i think that some bits you got a little confused however, and i dont blame you because the game doesnt really lay it out for you but the game does actually tell you how to one hand a weapon, and this is a SPOILER SO STOP READING IF YOU WANT but you can re-spec your character later in the game to try out different builds.
great video anyways!
Damn. Absolutely great review. This is only the third review I've seen that actually states some negatives. Im thankful for that, because you are absolutely right, some things are very clumsy and quite frankly stupid (did you look at key binds for mouse and keyboard? that's the dumbest thing I've seen in my life) but you are also right, over all its a great game. And this video did it justice. thanks for that! I subbed after the Ubisoft vid, I don't regret it. Keep it up!
Thank you!! And ya it’s like, a great game, but it’s not “clunkless”
I’m so happy for you man, your content and the quality of your content really shows how deeply you care about gaming as a whole, and I’m so excited to be here for when your channel grows and evolves into something more spectacular than it already is!
Thank you! Looking forward to it :)
I just only now found you YT channel. But I have now watched all your videos, and I will keep an eye out for any new one coming. Great job Jack top quality content.
So glad I stumbled upon this channel. I binged almost every video in the last few days and now I feel like a broke drug addict who just killed his entire supply for the month... or something. Keep it up.
Hahah it’ll be a shorter wait this time, THANK YOU!
You're my favorite content creator at the moment and you HEAVILY deserve all the support and love you are getting. Keep it up, Jack❤
Also congrats on the house, that ending got me emotional as well
happy for you man! enjoying the videos!!
the memories you create with this game are amazing
I remember how my last hit against Radahn was, how me and that lion boss at castle morne killed each other at the same moment and felled on the floor at the same time
the only game that made me feel this way was shadow of the colossus when I was a kid
This channel is the definition of quality>quantity. Your content is so good. It makes sense why it takes u so long. U deserve way more attention Jack
Thanks Brendan!! Another vid is in the works :)
@@JackSather u should review GOW Ragnarok
my most sincere congratulations to you bro, your videos are truly fantastic and you should be proud of the content you are producing. here's to many more videos!
Killing it man! Love your videos, just finished binging em all!
Love ya Jack, so happy for you and the growth. Great video, great guy, great channel
