      With any metroidvania and soulsborne, and any games really with a focus on exploration, I have always subscribed to the "stick your face into every room/hallway" just in case. Maybe you'll spot a much needed bonfire, or an unguarded treasure. And it serves to remind me better to come back and explore it later if I don't immediately.

    We must appreciate Mati's efforts and his promise that now he will explore the map more, discover secrets, look for paths. Less than 60 minutes into the clip, he already runs for his life, skipping half of the items, forgets that the tower can go up, almost skipping the second bonfire, and that he found the key to the cell with the first NPC. I love this guy

    Really glad that DS3 has finally started!
    Here are certain things that you might want to consider for the playthrough (no spoilers)
    1) After killing each boss read through the lore of every item associated with them (you will know how you get them soon enough, I hope)
    2) Having the lore of previous games in mind (especially that of Dark Souls 1's ) makes the experience especially rewarding.
    3) This game has many secret areas. You might want to keep an eye out for certain gestures this time around.
    4) You don't need to summon any NPC whatsoever to progress any questline unlike Dark Souls 2
    5) Once you reach the end, remember that rolling the credits doesn't take you directly to NG+ just like in DS 2.
    So you have the choice to decide whether to do the DLC later or not (I would personally suggest doing it after rolling credits)

      The curse fades, and then comes back. It has happened over and over (DS2 was another cycle) and has obviously lead to the world being saturated of life.

    2. You Missed a staircase right next to the first dead dragon by the 1st bonfire.

    Hey yo Mati, I'm really happy that you made this video and playing dark souls 3. It was my first Souls Game and does therefore have a special place in my heart. I always wish that I could experience DS 3 as if it were my first time but sadly this isn't possible. But you playing it for the first time and me seeing you experiencing everything that I loved in this game, everything I laughed, cried or was in complete awe about is really close to that. I didn't even really start the video but I already know that it will be great. I really thank you and love you for that because it fills me not only with nostalgia but also with happiness to see someone who is as cool and awesome as you play dark souls 3. I hope that you will enjoy the game because I did. It's not perfect but I'd say it's close to being that as it really teached me to carry on and to not give up, for one who doesn't give up and stays true in his good intentions will never fail. Thank you man and a great day to you and everyone who read my *short* comment.
    Edit: So after some sleep and finally finishing the video I have to say some things.
    First of all, f* yeah BABY that's what I've been waiting for, that's what it's all about, Wooooooo!
    It just makes me so damn happy that you enjoy dark souls 3 this much from the beginning! I mean the way you just jammed to the dark souls theme at the the beginning as well as to vordts theme at the end shows that, but these ost's just hit different because they're all so damn good. Your reactions to the beginning, the hub area, the music and everything else was just great and genuinely believe that you are already very good, man. You use your shield well, use your fire bombs extensively and have even beaten a dark snake monster on your own. At the end you even killed the lothric knights like they were nothing and even killed the red eyed blue knight first frickin time, i mean c'mon that's really impressive because this dude killed me very often in my first play through. Which means the experience you acquired through the other games really shows, especially when you second try the first to bosses.
    But light criticism or better, tips for you when you play dark souls 3 and if you even want them. So, you already alloted your flasks which was great because you were right, you didn't need the blue flasks and also good that you took the broad sword and leveled it up instead because of its better stats. But firstly take a little bit more time to explore, there's always something to find so don't be afraid to take a closer look around the area. Also some tips, Alt button is for slow walking with which you can can sneak up on enemies. Left Ctrl allows you to use the the weapon arts which you already found out by using the parry. But when you press f to double wield you can unleash mighty attacks or special abilities which use the blue FP. Okay i think this was all from my side. You already did very well on your own and I'm so happy to see you enjoying DS 3. I really love this game, but you playing it makes it even better, be prepared for little nostalgia trips and also hard beatings which I am certain that you will arise victorious from. The boss fights will "mostly" get better and better every time and so will their Ost's. I'm really looking forward to it.
    Lastly a fun fact: The theme at the beginning of dark souls 3, the title screen music was meant to be the boss theme for the final boss of the game so it is no wonder that it goes so hard. You will encounter the boss later in the game but he isn't the final boss anymore.
    If want to know which boss, spoiler warning ahead. But yeah this was all, have a great day!
    Spoiler warning ⚠️
    It was Pontiff Sullivan's theme

    This is gonna be awesome! This is my favorite souls game without a doubt, I have easily more than 3000 hours in this game lol, in the beggining of the game is best to put all of your points in health, that's the easiest start, and use deep or simple weapons that you find which don't scale with anything, they just have high base damage at the beggining of the game, then you can decide which build you wanna go with, dark builds are the most fun because you can use almost everything, magic, miracles, dark magic, strength weapons, dexterity weapons etc, dark is basically levelling up both magic and faith at the same time, but you'll have to use gems to change the weapon properties so they can scale with those stats, dark builds are way more advanced tho, the easiest and most simple builds are always gonna be strenght or dexterity

    You forgot the cell with a thief in it. Also there's a stairs at the dead dragon with a common tool you might appreciate up them. The First Flame got moved 2+ times. When you get frostbite, your stamina recovery gets slower and you get damage from the proc. A lot of DS2 story things make it into DS3 and effects a lot if you're paying attention.

    @jamescannon229 Год назад +18

    Just a heads up, vitality is a new stat that determines you equip load.
    Also:
    If you want to do a melee/magic hybrid build, its normally best to pick two of the offensive stats to focus on. Examples being a Strength/Intelligence build, or Dexterity/Intelligence build. This helps you not waste any stat points. Normally for hybrid builds you want your weapon in the right hand and a catalyst (staff) in the left hand.
    Later on you will be able to add infusions to your weapons to make them scale better with different stats. Just make sure to pay attention to the stat screens of weapons and look at the letters to see how they scale with different stats.

    • @yeahr1ghty
      @yeahr1ghty Год назад

      Nah this isn't really correct. On an honest NG playthrough you are meant to pick one damage stat, if he wants magic he should do pure Int or Faith build and his melee options will still be fine. Maxing out 2 damage stats is inefficient and unnecessary. He can simply infuse any regular melee weapon with Int/Faith scaling, before he unlocks that base damage is more than fine. Splitting focus with str/dex past whats needed for requirements will simply make his spellcasting much weaker without any added damage benefit to his melee damage.
      Until you get to an extremely high level (130+), hybrid builds are a noob trap. My guess is he's going to do some type of hybrid build like you said, then complain why it feels weak, because he doesn't understand leveling/scaling fully.

    • @jamescannon229
      @jamescannon229 Год назад

      @@yeahr1ghty I agree that focusing on one stat is the superior way to go, I was more recommending if he wants to go hybrid, keep it at two stats maximum, no more than that.

    • @jamescannon229
      @jamescannon229 Год назад

      ​@Yeah Right I guess a better way to say what I meant is, to get minimum requirement for either the weapon or spell you want to use, then focus primarily on the other.

      @jackmeowmeowmeow2177 Год назад

      @@yeahr1ghty honestly it doesn’t matter on the first playthrough, they made the game easier and more accessible so even if you waste stats you still excel. This is why you can dodge 7 times from the start in a row, this only increases as you level up your stamina pool so you basically outscale enemies unless you intentionally throw away souls. In a regular casual playthough, you get more than enough souls and levels to just romp through the game. This is also why it is the most popular souls game because of the ease you can feel “badass” by dodging that hit or taking down that big enemy. Ds1 and DS2 are still kings in comparison to ds3 in many many aspects from lore to builds to pvp
