The Greatest Feat In Video Game History 

Next challenge: blindfolded

but wait.....there's more!!

@@JoshuaJacobs83 someone has already beaten it with a guitar but blindfolded I doubt will ever be done. That, I think would be impossible.

@@nicholasokeefe3632 Is the guitar challenge no hit as well? What's the link?

@@nicholasokeefe3632 I mean if people can beat super Mario blindfolded this should be easy enough. ;-; edit:(sarcasm)

omg, you're right. They must be cheating! 😅

They prolly spliced it :/

Right?! No way these fake gamers managed these feats! /s

Those runs were as fake as his cheese pizza & shysta cola!

Spider-man didn't get to them in time

I've played like 7 hours Dark Souls throughout the entire series and it was my heart rate was spiking

The heart rate when you only need one hit but have no heals left is already stroke inducing qnd makes you suddenly go risk averse. I blazed through Bloodbourne, got all the stuff, the secret end etc and its a miracle i didn't have a heart attack/stroke. Pressure made me die too often. In fact the very last boss id died to so many times but then left gane for a fortnight...then did it first time (with a ludicrously clise to death moment)...this guy is a legend

SoC? yeah SoC is hard, but was the last boss he did Soul of Cinder or Gael? It's still impressive he got through the entire thing, and I'm in awe, but I'm still confused if Soul of Cinder was the last one, since the Ringed City and Ashes of Ariandel exist

​@@QuinoLisingDoesn't NG+ start when you kill Soul of Cinder so it has to be the final boss

​@@QuinoLisingu can access Ringed city after beatint sister friede

Exactly what I was thinking

It's gonna be insane

Elden Ring alone will be an insane feat. Adding it to the other games is just ridiculous

I just don’t think it’s possible, in my opinion elden ring is arguably the hardest souls game when it comes to punishment.

@@itzdavid7714 I think it's possible, looking at the feats performed by ONGbal, but definitely very difficult. Elden Ring is by far the most difficult FromSoft game to date

You're my hero

When he started crying, I thought at first he and the boss had exchanged hits simultaneously on the last frame, thus breaking his run. I saw that happen once to TGH on a Zelda Link's Awakening run... world record fail on literally the last frame possible.

This comment should have way more likes.

Wow, just wow 😂

Christ🤣🤣🤣🤣

I wonder what the bosses are feeling Boss 1: "Did he beat you without getting hit?" Boss 2: "Yep, in his flip flop, and half-naked too" Boss 1: "Damn that was tough, have a seat here, let's talk about it"

No wonder Gwyn was so terrified of hollows..

@@firstnamesurname2482 Bosse 3 emerging from the ruins of the castle: "Hey guys, you wouldn't believe what.....oh. You too?"

But he was clearly missing health. Can someone explain that to me? I've never played much of these games.

@@GhostLink92 you are allowed to purposely take fall damage and poison yourself to lower your health. that doesn't count as getting "hit". the reason is to deal extra damage at low health as a result of the red tearstone ring

It didn't used to, I saw this vid back in the day. My only guess is that RU-vid copy-flagged the final boss music and forced Karl to mute that chunk of the video

Dino usually plays other music At certain parts a lot of which is copyrighted

And that's a big shame, this part of the video used to play the menu music from Divinity 2 Original Sin, it was epic...

Rip the most impactful part of the video. Thanks, youtube. Much appreciated.

At least it does come back eventually, when the BGM ends. That song triggers RU-vid's copyright system. I know because I have streamed the game on here myself.

Yeah he gave a shout out to dobby in the timestamp you posted

BushidoYu beat all 7.

That was so awesome the way he delivered that!!! Had me on the edge of my seat!

Same, my heart was pounding the entire time, like it was me playing or something :P Then the reaction, the hug... I may have welled up a little.

My heart was racing so fast. I would jump every time when Cinder would swing his sword, and that was just me fighting him normally. I couldnt imagine how he was feeling mentally and physically, honestly seeing him break down and cry after grinding for so long made me feel so happy for him.

saaaaame, I was so anxious

Same! I honestly thought he was gonna get hit, especially where he showed clips before of that happening. What a perfect delivery of an intense moment

👌

My man owned that game

my thoughts exactly lol

@@gamemeister27 Yea, and because of all the hours wasted playing that game he didn't own anything else.

I'm glad I wasn't the only one who noticed that too.

Im not going to "tank" anything, using a tank in Dark Souls is cheating IMO.

@@stevenmack9948 your entitled to your opinion and all, but do you know what cheating is? cheating requires you to break a rule. there are no rules in dark souls

@@kionicxnm I think he was making a joke about using a literal tank, the armored war vehicle

@@LilacMonarch The point still stands. No where in the rules of dark souls, nowhere in the terms and conditions, does it say I cannot defeat the lord of cinder with a WW2 Panzer. I rest my case.

@@5stargrim no, but mods like that are not allowed in speedrun rules so you wouldn't be able to get a panzer

OCD taken to its limits

they're autistic

Definitely a stupid waste of time. It was foolish especially in these games where the mechanics are not precise.

Or a gambling addiction🎉 (wow the autocomplete suggested the confetti😅)

​@@normalguycap hahahahahaha. Good one.

After all those defeats, that victory made me popoff. Good lord, I think I need a smoke after that, I got the tingles all over XD

i was so ready to burst into tears when he failed here, and I burst into tears when he succeded instead

Yes because the title surely did not indicate succes. 😜

@@ThomasfromDenmark1 there was enough time later on in the video for him to say about someone else succeeding, also clickbait is a thing too

@@johnrobinson1481 lol sure whatever.

"with a fucking pencil"

@@arhamsaa who the foukin can do that?

Miyazaki is carefully planning his revenge

haha the ironic thing is Miyakazi's excellently designed games, 1/3/BB/sekiro are famous for having EXTREMELY good hitboxes, dodging hits by tiny windows which would make your skill apply way more but the one he DIDNT work on, the B-Teams game of DS2 has notoriously dogshit hitboxes where the entire game plays like pvp lag where youre clipped from 10 feet away, the bosses are terribly designed & the movement is restricted to 8 directions..its super clunky haha so ironically im more impressed someone beat DS2, the ugly bastard child, than any of the mainline good games

I don't see King's Field or Armored Core anywhere in this list.

Yah demon souls was my first game and now I’m like fr these guys are insane

Literally same

i never played the other games but i think they're a lot harder than ER now imagine

And elden ring is by far the easiest

AND Elden Ring is the easiest one (asides from Demons Souls), which makes it even more mind melting. Dude played the games like he invented it

I always enjoy Hob’s streams. He’s a killer Souls player and a good dude.

Wow that is amazing and he is so epic! What a legend!

Even more monumental, now that it has sealed it's own place in history

That day was something else, waiting for Sekiro to release watching Hob and Otz get their insane runs, what a moment in gaming history that was.

Didn't sekiro release 2019? I'm confused

@@vedaryan334 yes, did I say something that doesn't add up? Hob completed the god run in 2019 just before the launch of sekiro.

Well, what is it!

@@jmlagn2650 Shrug -_-

why are you everywhere

You write the most obvious comments possible on every video. Are you making a comment no bot world record too?

Every.Single.Time.

Same I was shook when he landed the killing blow

I think he pulled this before, but very sparingly which makes this an amazing tool. I just hoped for the love of all that this was a fake-out. ... really puts you in the shoes of the people right in that moment when you *can't* tell what's happening next.

i was so happy he did it

Me too. I was like “Not at the last second!!!” I’m so glad I got got.

I saw that there were still a few minutes left so I thought he wouldn't get it. The whole time I kept thinking "cmon dude, please do this. Please finish this for the sake of my weak heart, and for your sake!" And then he won. I swear I'm not crying, it's just those darn onion ninjas slicing onions everywhere I go.

*please* I'm begging you, just call it Soulsborne Ring: Shadows Die Twice

@@marloncebo242 it's true tho, unless it's a big ass sword the lighter stuff can be rolled out of early

@@unknownkingdom the boomer is strong with this one

@@unknownkingdom It's almost like the most important people in your life are the ones who give a shit about your hobbies and interests, and who care for who you actually are. Not what respect-worthy badass you attempt to be, to make up for 0 personality just to impress women. Besides, you act like he has nothing else to make up for it.

@@unknownkingdom "Cant "make up for it" when you play. a video game for 16 hours and cry over it." "Maybe she stays with him cause he makes bank in some geek tech office job " You answered your own question bro. Even then you assume that every women in the world wants what America thought was the ideal male like 30-40 years ago. Also I don't know what tangent you are going on about respect, he has a bunch of followers on a social media platform and he is extremely dedicated to his goal, that's enough to respect for some people. Obviously if he was not respect worthy then she wouldn't have stuck around with him, unless you are insinuating all women have high-standards and the ones who don't are exploiters. "There's no coming back from that dawg" Coming back from what? There are worse things to not come back from but you chose him crying for like 2 minutes for something he finally accomplished after months of hard-work? I think you severely misunderstand the difficulty of what he just did, and what's the difference between him and every toxic beergut fratboy who piss themselves when their favorite sports team loses or wins? Or do you just have a hatred for videogames and office jobs? Whether you like it or not he is making bank, has followers that watch him and a girlfriend that cares for him enough to hug him when he is crying. What part of you makes it sound like a negative thing? Your views are really outdated, general society doesn't have unrealistic expectations of relationships and identity anymore. Videogames are turning into actual sports and can even be a job for some. I know it's wild, but you will get used to it. Trust me.

@@unknownkingdom sounds like someones projecting need a hug or something? or are you too "manly" and such? anywho obvs bait is obvs and im gonna go eat my hands

like living next to any sport fan

Someone visits you: Whats with the screaming? You: A guy just beat the impossible *refuse to elaborate*

@@vlrginizer927 Start rapping the do the impossible part of Libera Me

Ok?

Also every few hours when he fails a run and you hear NOOOOOOOOOOO

Doesn't work for me either.

Thank you for confirming its not just me.

same here

This is why souls games are amazing. They got actual difficulty, made by design and mechanic. Its also why SL1 run is possible. Its not artificial difficulty where instead you make every enemy one shot you or has unlimited HP, or simply by increasing the quantity of the enemies and then call it the "hardest difficulty".

@@zarfo2667 is hitless runs around in any of the (modern) Doom games?

@@curious_ember wasn't thought about at the time to make it fair. Some little thing will unfairly track you. I haven't heard anything of the sort in Doom bc the mechanics are not "fair."

The reward cycle in modern Doom require you take hits and push through. The top players play NM and UNM and nobody would care to no hit a game that was never designed to be no hit. They would have to take the difficulty down a lot, and then something would still unfairly track them.

@@penguinjay Im a NM player myself (every done except horde, haven't had a chance to play it yet). But, in D2016, because of the way the arena' are comparatively and the combat loop itself to Doom Eternal, it could possibly be done in 2016, no? Or would the Imp AI and sniper make that near impossible?

That's what FromSoft games are all about, even regular runs by new players. I love it.

@alan caprock if this is how you feel, then why are you even here? This entire channel is about speedrunning games. Edit: yes, this guy really came onto a speedrunning channel and shit all over the sport. Glad he deactivated or whatever.

there is something better, probably. and thats doing it

It’s cringe

@@TheDamnBeast dude from soft games are overrated. They were also never that hard and most games from the early 2000’s games were already doing what dark souls did

PETLINK

It was cute, dog had no idea what was going on but of course he/she was happy anyway

@@RisingRevengeance the dog ususally hops in on his own terms now whenever hob celebrates, just he was a baby boy back then and not old enough to understand that hob was happy :)

@@anesthetized7053 I think he understood that he was happy. I meant that he obviously didnt understand why he was happy. Your dog will just naturally be happy when you're happy.

That was so wholesome! I’d be worried the dog would randomly jump up and put me off the run though

Its not even about being built different anymore

It’s about hard work and perseverance. The man is a helluva worker

So did Dinosindgail

It's about drive it's about power

Oh God, I wonder if he will try it with Elden Ring too-

I am 40 hours into in a single game I didn't come no where near beating it

He's a very convincing AI

You mean Rodd Todgers?

Would be fucking hilarious if they involved the AC games that involved Miyazaki too, basically 3 and 4A.

Soulsborne Sekiring?

Eldensoulsbornekiro?

They need to include the King's Field series too

Probably Miyazaki is looking at those runs and decided that every new FromSoft game will have a completely unique title so that those runs get insanely long and weird names.

If you can beat DS1 without dying, you're great at the game, but just not the best in the world :3

I felt like a god when I first finished Dark Souls... And yeah, i died a shit ton of times too.

Don't sell yourself short, clearing dark souls without dying is proof of your skill. You don't have to be the best in order to be great.

Sure, talent has a huge role in this, but in games where dying is common, doing a deathless run makes you more than respectable.

Being able to defeat Bed of Chaos without dying alone is a massive accomplishment.

in DkS1/DSR you also get longer recovery when you whiff an attack with weapons like the reinforced club so missing can be deadly despite being hard to avoid against agile enemies like Ornstein

That's because hob is stalling

😅😅😅😅😂😂

Cuts to some old guy getting a legitimate Pac Man high score

After thirty sleepless days and nights with no food, little water, the fate of all humanity hanging in the balance, the alien overlords watching impatiently, the last bit of his sanity slipping away, and the entire scientific community in a violent uproar over the sheer physiological impossibility of what they were witnessing, AndrewG got 4:51.

When Otz finally got the run after failing twice to the burnt Ivory King I was I tears. The guy deserved the win.

Well, streamers do depend on their audience for income. And considering the amount of time and effort you need to pour into this, we're talking about months of dedicated playtime. It's a full time job and like any full time job, you expect to get paid to do it. The only exception being that our bosses *have* to pay us, where as viewers of a streaming channel are under no such obligations and purely do it to support the streamer. I feel like 'we' is appropriate here, because his viewers likely provided him with the funds necessary to keep pursuing his goal, showing their loyal support. It warrants the use of the word 'we', imo. A lot of streamers couldn't do the things they do without the support (both emotional and financial) of their viewers.

Inclusive speech makes money

@@Xylarxcode Well said

If he wants to say "we did it" than why can't he. His viewers offer him a lot of support during these things and so that's why they say it.

@@dynamicflashy Not even kidding, I literally use squilla videos to sleep, his voice is sooo monotone, a shame considering that some of his runs are very interesting in concept, like the "all achievements ds2"

@@dynamicflashy I guess it depends on your own personality. For me, the overexcited yelling and celebrating and unnecessary hyping is often a reason not to watch. On the other hand, the streamers who stay calm and collected and talk about what their plans are in even voices are much more appealing. I always feel like if you have to yell and scream about something, you're not in control of the situation or your own emotions anymore. I know it's an outlet like any other and some people just can't help it, but it's just not a quality that appeals to me in a streamer.
