Omg the "Dark Souls Backseaters" part - I was dying. Been watching a lot of different streamers play it, and the amount of backseating/you're playing it wrong comments are astounding.
yeah these people are pathetic. Imagine making up imaginary rules to force someone into playing a certain way to make their game experience less fun and more tedious
@@TheRobochicken5494 Ranged classes in any game since beggining of time are a beta move. But in this game where combat is especially challenging its even more beta to stand in africa and shoot bolts. Also hes doing more dmg with melee than twohanders do lmao
It's honestly enjoyable to see Sodapoppin become so good at the game lol. Spells or not, his decision making is actually a lot better than many other streamers.
I was actually thinking this. A lot of people in chat that don't play the game were saying he's cheesing but he's actually playing the game way better than most streamers, the way he tests his damage on bosses to decide if he can take them, and his roll timing. He's actually pretty good it's nice to see.
@@pmudri lol jelly aside, you do realise that close combat isn't nearly as hard as you claim it to be right? Jump and charged attacks are still extremely overpowered. The amount of stagger makes many bosses trivial to say the least.
Fun fact, if you dual wield your weapon when mounting the horse it counts towards the strength stat, so he could actually have done the fight on horseback
Especially when the person fighting him is being a pepega and trying to use spells and magic weapons XD. I ended up using a +6 torch for damage while just riding figure 8s on torrent. Because that was more damage than the +9 or +12 (can’t remember which) swords I had since they where all either default int scaling or had weapon arts to make them magic. Still only took 3 attempts (first 2 where just to attacks i hadn’t seen from a dragon)
Idk why I'm surprised but soda is actually pretty good at souls, it's not hard to watch like most streamers doing 15 rolls in a row away from a boss every time they swing, he actually times his rolls and does it into the boss to counter.
advice for elden ring, dont quit just bc the boss is too hard. unlike DS, ER is open world it doesnt restrict you where to go. so can simply underleveled. also dont play like streamers, they play not to enjoy the game, they play to entertain.
@@Zephhi Oh so iam not a scrub for quitting ds1? I really cant vibe with the controls, espacially becasue i have it on console and i tend to play games on pc way mor often so im not good with a controller. I tought i was just bad for not finding the game fun.
That happens really easily in elden ring since its not linear. i also went to an area with a higher level requirement first and facerolled through the same region chance was in this video
In all the souls games going caster is easy mode with the exception of pure faith, funny enough pure faith was just as broken as other casters in DS2 and then they nurfed it into the ground.
about the dragon....although I was pretty overleveled for that area (150) I didnt have an easy time so I just got on the horse and killed him from the distance with my bow haha
how the fuck are people not leveling vigor like at all, i just dont get it, makes everything impossible to first try since you die to literally any attack in 1 hit, getting vigor to 30-40 is top priority after meeting weapon requirements
I really hate how you can be out in the open somewhere, trying to fight some massive fuck on a horse...and the game just doesnt let you use summons. Like why can I use summons against Margit on a fairly small path, yet cant use summons to fight the spider thing in the castle....but can use summons to fight things in the castle courtyard? Where you can/cant use summons makes no fuckin sense.
they give you the summon in boss arenas and exremely difficult ares same with stakes of marika. However the devs have a weird perception of which are is hard, Like some ares can screw you over and you need to run through a bullet hell just to et sour runes meanwhile gatefront, which only has a few soldiers and one knight of godrick, has two sites of a grace AND a staute of marika. Oh and you can summon there too
@@raptorxrise5386 fr, like we get it bro you beat the game using a melee build like 90 percent of the players who play these type of games. It's not special, magic is in the game for a reason
I mean, im a primarily melee player, but whenever i do a mage playthrough, it is fun. Blasting enemies in the face with magic is pretty fun, especially in elden ring where there is different types of magic.
That build looks like a lot of fun. Just got a message from someone on twitch saying he might be done streaming. I hope that’s not true. Been watching this guy for years
'Almost quit' XD Casul. Claims to be 'literally OP' when his stat bars are micro size. Probably not even at the softcap for INT (80 btw omegalul) wonders why he gets bent over and banged sobbing into the ground. That all said, entertaining watch.
Your thumbnails are copying asmongolds thumbnails but getting 1/8th the amount of views despite you streaming 8 years longer than him. How does that make you feel Mr. cashmere?
i mean i can see why he would be annoyed with people telling him to play other builds, but if he's pretending that sorcery doesn't make the game x100 easier then he's got me fucked up.
thats a funny meme. strength build is the easiest you can play with... magic isnt because youre weaker and casting time for spells is longer than a melee swing. Also as caster you have to use more than just the heal pot (so more micro). :P Magic only makes cheesing easier since you can kill stuff from range but bosses like Godrick and Margit are easier as melee since you can avoid their attacks closeup and attack faster. + strength builds can wear more armor and allocate more heals. Compare asmon and soda playing, asmon had really no trouble with bosses while soda was stuck on some.... the difference between strenght build and magic is evident. :D And its a cringe if people take the meme seriously... magic isnt easier, just try it!
@@Otakahunt it literally is tho, in pve it makes the game a joke because you can summon something to tank damage while you shoot him. In pvp it sucks because people aren't stupid and don't just stand there taking hits.
@@GoldenMaskedChad i am not sure if you tried summons but one spell makes boss focus you for few attacks and unless you wanna spend 15-20 min on every boss you can't do that. Also it counts with perfect rolls because bosses oneshots you. Str vs int/faith have problem with different bosses but overall spell build isnt easier.
@@robinpodzemny9821 if you use a summon that’s on its ass constantly that shouldn’t be a problem. Also wouldn’t it take longer to beat the boss without the summon because its agroded on you 24/7? Melee builds have to get up close to even damage the boss thus increasing the likelihood of getting hit. But I agree that strength builds are easy in pve.
@@GoldenMaskedChad i would say the difference is punishment for mistake. Melee heals and goes again. Caster has to start over. I am lil crazy and didnt put single point into hp even after 70 hours and 4/5 game done. Using lvled up elite knight summon if needed. He is really beefy but most bosses just dont mind him if i use spells. So i just roll and learn exact timing on every move. for me it feels to play nohit preety much. Only cheese is first attack dont do dmg thanks to flask.
Phasing through from touched attacks and could be missing on the beasts yourself and dying too often with the monster's strategy and style in method of attack. I know how the game works, but I hate how the game should be different as diverse than being an elder scroll type game with an upgrade version years later. Games like these have issues and problems unconcluded within. Just watch what the beast's abilities by avoiding all and then use spells or bows to reach the end of the game like these. There is no real improvement to work on, it's like a hobby but much easier, so need to be radical, just be peaceful with virtual games.
Will you go to Heaven when you die ? Have you ever Lied, stolen, used Gods name in vain (such as OMG), Had sex outside of Marriage ? Truth is...We have all sinned and broke Gods laws. And sin is what sends us to Hell. But even though we broke Gods laws, God being rich in mercy sent his son Jesus born of a virgin. He lived a sinless perfect life something we could not do. He willingly went to the cross and took the punishment we deserve by dying on the cross for our sins. Then 3 days later rose from the dead and was seen by hundreds of eye witnesses and then ascended into Heaven where he sits at the right hand of God. So please today repent and put your Faith and trust in Jesus before its too late.
