Playing Dark Souls 1 For the First Time is Bad for my Soul, Get it? 

You are the person I go to when im eating and need youtube to watch

“I feel like I don’t want to be here” Pretty much describes multiple ares in the game

This dude is the chosen one, he beat the Capra Demon first try.

2:45 every souls player has felt this pain. Getting 1 shot by Havel when he’s so close to death

The free aim shots with the bow were genuinely very impressive

What do you guys think of the on screen chat? I'm experimenting with it, but might have to switch to Twitch live streams for it to not suck 😅

What???? I can't even fathom how you flashed the Capra Demon. It literally took me 50 attempts my 1st playthrough. Good freakin' job.

You have earned my respect for the first try on capra demon. Good job.

Just stumbled on these. I love watching new people play through the first Dark Souls, always interesting to see how new people approach things and what order they discover different areas, since the world is a lot less linear than later entries. You seem pretty chill and have a nice earnest vibe too, just a chill dude playing through a game, not trying to ham it up but still reacting to things. Keep up the good work.

not a fan of the chat on screen. well, it wouldn't bother me at all, except that the chat is full of spoilers and backseating lol. annoying to see on a first blind playthrough

i must mention that when the gold guy kills the firekeeper, there'll be a whole quest to hunt him down, and after it's done, you'll get the soul of the firekeeper back. as soon as you get it, *IMMEDIATELY HEAD BACK TO FIRELINK SHRINE and put it back where it belongs*. I've seen so many people accidently use that soul because it looks the exact same as a normal firekeeper soul, so people use it for their Estus upgrade.

Love these vids man. Your commentary, the length, the quality. It’s all just perfect. When I need a not short but good videos, your the channel i come to. ❤

These have got to be some of the most interesting let’s play videos I’ve ever seen

Incredible Series Amazing Find Love Watching Your Souls Playthrough Good Vibe Thank You Great Man

I like the chat. Some of their suggestions take away from experiencing a blind playthrough. Suggestions for paths that you might miss are fine but you can only experience DS1 for the first time once so some of the tips take away from that experience in my opinion. Great video! Love these series you have been doing.

Idk how you have only 25k dude you’re a great youtuber! Love this series

Seeing your journey has been great so far

Awesome vid bro! Love watching the playthrough as I playthrough

I'm finishing up my SL1 no pyro all bosses run of DS1, got inspired by the series to play the game again. Hope you're having fun with it

i love watching these videos while grinding in dark souls

Love that you keep two handing your axe and roll

The thumbnails are on point!! Take that Da Vinci

1:49 Immaculate Havel killing music very faintly in the background (thought I was hearing things that wasn’t there initially) ff4’s airship theme is a bop!

“Yeah havels dead” ahhhh I remember saying that 206578 times

Love the classic let’s play format

dude these videos are great, love the humor lol

bro i'm french, i think your videos are really cool, i enjoyed them

you gotta finish the whole game!!

These are great. Can't wait for DS2 and 3

So glad to see you do all of these, I think you should do demon souls before it’s too easy after this

You have that new to ds1 but not new to souls formula vibe and its fun to watch

Enjoying your videos mate 👍

Love the JSRF music!

i love the "i don't mess with ads in a boss fight" immediately an ad plays.

Amazing content. Amazing game.

You are now my favorite RU-vidr 🙏🏻😺

I am excited to see how you do with the later sections of this game. I really enjoy DS1 but Lost Izalith and Tomb of the Giants are two of my least favorite areas in the series.

1:19 you can backstab the armored boar in undead burg in between the bridge and church.

ik i'm 6 months late but ur def a new fav youtuber of mine :D

Just a slight personal feedback, I generally enjoy a bit less edited stuff. Not ofc I'm just a random one guy and you have built your audience around this edit style so ofc if you rather keep it the way it is perfectly understandable, but you know if there are more people who think like I do, or if you've been thinking about experimenting with less edits, or whatever thought I'd put this comment (and hey worst case scenario an extra comment is just extra engagement for the vid so it ain't like it's hurting) Oh also if you could label the parts of the series in the title it would be real nice.

The amount of backseating chat does is annoying, but if that is okay for u then I guess it's fine

at around 9 minutes you ask who that door is for, believe it or not, Fromsoft actually added an Easter egg for Charles White in the game, you'll know him from his role in Hunger Games. So yeah pretty cool.

Are you going to play armored core 6? Big fan btw

the Backseat from the chat, ruins everything that a first run means.

Awww such good memories of when i first visited the depths 😂

Use a shield, A SHIELD!

5:03 Is funny to see the comparison with Monster Hunter because I played MH before any souls game, so the DS1 also reminded me of MH, and even though MH is an older franchise than Dark Souls, I doubt that FromSoftware actually took elements from it.

17:21 lolol so corny I love it

It's cool to see you are enjoying it, but Dark Souls chat is surprisingly spoiler-y and backseating-ish.

I was in that stream 💪🏽

Not the Cadussy Round Shield lmao

Valley of Dragons -> LowerBlighttown better and easier than Lowertown -> Depths-> Upper Blighttown -> LowerBlighttown. But yeah you need to use first leson you learn in tutorial. Skip big boys untill you get big. Depths unlock +10 weapon, so Depths-> +10 -> Blighttown if you want to be super ready. BigBoss in Asylum get weapon from +14->+15(max)

17:40 why did you change the boss music?

why'd you edit out the music for the boss fights?

aaaaand another run immediately ruined by backseating twitch chats

I know this is old but just found this videos, and they are really entertaining, but the chat backseat is really a run killer, it kills all the fun of exploring and discovering the world and mechanics on your own

The best famail i ever seen

playing it live with people backseating you was the worst idea imo

Yooooooo its we live we love we lie

Idk how you beat Capra that easily…I’m pretty seasoned in ds, especially 1 and that’s insane…I always die to that mf

let the screams begin

gotta love the blind playthroughs

jesus fuck he beat the capra demon first try. this man really is john darksoul

I like the screen chat. But i do need to suggest something, you tend to leave too quickly when there possible loot. Enemies take a second to drop loot sometimes, i know its annoying to have to sit around, but a lot of enemies you find may drop useful upgrade materials. The other thing is looting corpses, sometimes, and this is dukb i know, you have to lick things up a couple times. Right before capra demon, theres the thief gear, and theif weapons. They count as seperate items and need to be looted seperately. Loving the run so far, yoy kinda made lower undead burg your biotch. That place is harder than you made it seem

I didn't know that boar was humanoid enemy in ds... noted

drakes does not have wings!

isnt this like, his third "playing dark souls for the first time" vid?

Aw man I was enjoying seeing a blind play through but that’s kinda impossible with twitch chat backseat gamin :/

That’s such a cool helmet, you should keep it and not let a parasitic Maggot replace your head

He killed the real boss part of the capra demon and called it an ad

why you are using this slow roll? make max 25% equip load, you'll be a lot faster

No Armored Core?

Title typo alert?

oh i get it. dark souls.

Praise the smurf cat

We live, we love, we lie?

Demon's souls when?

You could always parry Havel

YO LOW POLY SPINNING RAT FTW!

Actually it's really good that you didn't get any black knight's weapon. Any of them is completely broken, and turn the game into easy mode.

its the best souls game bro get it

We live we Love You died

dayum, good video

17:00 the cuckoo Something funny happens when you remove the "oo" try shouting it at random people.

Does it ever occur to you in this game that uuuhm....YOU HAVE A SHIELD ON YOUR BACK?!? Maybe...Idk....USE IT??(Not all the time, ofcourse, but sometimes it can be VERY useful)

Drake sword good for early game just don’t upgrade it waste of scales

Sucks that chat tries to spoil the story with the Fire keeper and Lautrec... Something like that really is better left to learn about through playing the game and experiencing it. And all it takes is one sentence to kind of ruin a special moment.

As someone who has been playing Soulsborne games for 6 years. I absolutely love to see people Playing souls games for the first Time.

average day in chicago

People in chat hating on Dark Souls 2 got clapped by the Pursuer, 100%, either that or Shrine of Amana >.> I personally fkn loved Shrine of Amana, and preferred it pre-nerf, bunch of crybabies >.>

Just found your channel today love the content, BUT FOR THE LOVE GWEN FIX THE FAT ROLL! TAKE OFF SOME ARMOR

Twitch chattttttt why

Bro. You put "indo ali" in the thumbnail

If ya parry Havel he gets ALOT easier

yea no. playing first time with chat next to it spoiling everything and telling you exactly what to do. nah mate

You should use either the claymore or szwhilehander not the drake sword it is good for early game and terrible for mid to late game

Did he capra on first time? Wtf

Stupid chat backseating and spoiling everything.

That shitty spoiler-men in your stream chat are ruining ur first experience

*trapped in a corner by 4 rats and some ghoul boys* *starts punching your bare fist into the crowd blindly bc you accidentally unequipped your weapon* If that’s not dark souls magic idk what tf is
