What Happens When an Elden Ring Players Tries Dark Souls 3 For The First Time?! 

You can charge your heavy attacks, could have used it for vordt! I love DS3, played a couple hundred hours of it in fact.

Yep I enjoyed hope you make more

I would think about it, if u would have played dark souls 2 like a normal human being

Wait… so you didn’t play Demon Souls before DS 1 and then you didn’t play DS 2 before 3? 🤯

@@Entrepreneurr while demons souls is a different setting and u can not play it, before dark souls 1 (even though thats a big loss) u cant just skip dark souls 2, because it adds a damn lot to the Overall Story and World of the dark souls franchise. The only reason pwople skip it is because some idiot told them how "bad" it is, based on their own Lack of insight. Even though there are plant of Videos that explain how dark souls 1, 2 and 3 are connected. Dark souls 2s influence isnt just seen in the dark souls franchise, it even has big Impact on Elden Ring. The dark souls 2 Direktor even cooperated with miazaki to build elden ring. If u take a Look at elden ring u will see how much it was influenced by dark souls 2 and how many of its concepts it shares, like a King qho fought giants for his queen, then left the country, thats just one of them. It makes me just sad how some people think dark souls 2 Was "not canon" or "the Black sheep" Wich both is just nonsense

For first timers I agree but after even my first playthrough it was nothing, I think the most annoying on my first was the area with the jailers.

Yea, it really gets you into a 'ohhh this games gunna feel different then the last 2' frame of mind ^.^;

I love the feeling HWOL gives. The vista of the castle/towers is something to behold! 🎃 \[T]/

bcs lack of space for movements

it's pretty easy

First boss of ds3 was hell for people like me who stopped playing games in 2012. After several months i conquered ds1, 2 and 3. Now I'll introduce my 8 years old son to this dark madness😅

@@AntonioFlores-kb7kg Damn, you guys gotta be even worse than me, when I'm already at my worst and yet, it wasn't very difficult to beat this 1st boss, when I was a complete 1st timer on Souls Like games. The most boss I was struggling, was Abyss Watchers, others weren't that tough.

BB is part of the souls series?

@@AG45. not series, different stories, but the mechanism is peak compare to other game

I actually prefer DS1 to DS3, even though the bosses is arguably the best in the series in DS3. I really like it as well, but I to me it felt like a "best of album" with the new Anor Londo, Siegmeyer 2.0 etc. DLC is POG on the other hand. Bloodborne is amazing and that is coming from someone that is not really a fan of the aesthetic.

remember that you are all special and great love your self❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ nothaters

Dark souls 1 is the OG and best and most unique in the series by far. Dark souls 3 is trash

Grey is the colour of Ash so it fits the lore perfectly.

Tbh elden ring is also too yellow

Valorheart & Crow Quills are great weapons, I hope Fromsoft bring those into Elden Ring DLC.

As much as I love DS I don't see myself -ever- buying 2.

@@knowwhatimeme yeah couldn't finish DS2 lol 😆 tried replaying it but no dice..

@@sikevillian it's a sad day when I finally decide to buy 2

remember that you are all special and great love your self❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ nothaters

summoning is the real thing that breaks the game i consider most ashes of war like an extra spell pretty much except for ones like bloodhound step and stuff like that but being able to have a boss take time off of you to focus on something else (some being able to literally solo bosses themselves) it gives you way too much leeway to think of an easy strategy or cheese it with a big hitting AoW

The thing is, the boss patterns in DS3 are a lot more reasonable for the average person to master after a few tries. Even nameless king, the hardest boss in the game, killed me around 10-15 times my first try with DS3. Whereas Melania took me well over 100 tries to beat without spirit ashes in ER . The challenge in DS3 is more fair IMO

@@StreamlinedGaming_ True enough. I felt fighting Melania that there was absolutely no chance I'd bear her without a spirit. Whereas even bosses like Martyr Logarius give clear openings

@@xigbar1994 totally agree. It’s almost like they balanced the bosses around having spirit ashes with you. When I beat the nameless king I was like wow, I conquered this boss and could fuck him up again right now. When I beat Malenia, I was like wow,I got real lucky with RNG that run, she’d fuck me up if we rematched right now 🤣

Elden Ring was my first souls game. I loved it. So, like so many other people, I bought Ds3 immediately after. Ds3 is an awesome game, but after ER, I found it so easy. Like others have said, enemies are so much more predictable and relatively easy to figure out - even bosses. (*Except Friede - she kicked my ass). But, yeah - I know it's different for everyone, but after ER, Ds3 was just not that hard.

I'm pretty good at getting lost in these games so it could happen

@@itsSpicyGaming just play the game as you normally would, blind playthru is always fun to watch.

Thank you! It's great to hear from long time supporters of the channel. 🙌

Ah yes, it is my favorite Nintendo DS game as well. (Yes I know it stands for Dark Souls.)

@@kristofertaft194 😅

definitely the best of the three ds boss wise, compared to the other from games i feel like Sekiro is up there as well, not sure which of the two i would pick

All you have to say is slave knight Gael tbh

@@ghoulsome9483 Sekiro's bosses are really fun, but compared to DS3 they lack the spectacle in some ways. There are Sekiro bosses that are nice spectacles, though.

@@xskyforger6299 sure but to be honest the fights being less spectacle and more grounded is an appeal of it's own, especially with how solid they are, mechanics wise

And the best boss musics as well.

Bricks will be shat when he reaches him.

Heard a lot about nameless king. Don't know what he is but I'm sure I'll be fine... right?

Nameless king is considered the hardest main game boss. The dlc bosses overtake him easily however.

​@@Alias0225 dlc bosses only took me a couple deaths but nameless king f me up for an hour.. idk maybe its different for everybody

Hes weak to dark. Apply human resin to twin blades and he goes down quick. Pyromancy too.

can't wait for him to meet nameless king and ring knights lol

@@josephalbin6478 don't forget Sister Friede too.

@@deathrodamus9608 how could I forget the reason i developed a foot fetish

@@austinmc12?

So that's why the Profaned Capital is underground and much closer to Majula, maybe it's Yhorm who linked the fire after the events of DS2.

Not exactly the same but dark souls 2 was my first dark souls game my favorite armor had to be the ivory king armor set

Haha did my character look like you at all

Just keep sticking through it buddy. I restarted three times and when the game clicked, it clicked for me. Never had a more burning desire to get good at a game.

​@@appabison4079 Just Played 8 hours straight today forgot to fucking eat

Good timing

Bet the grind was fun lol, worst platinum of the fromsoft games i'd say

I defeated those two sharks in the well first try, just using the Threaded Cane, just stay at medium range and use hit and run tactics. You'll get the Rakuyo eventually.

That's dorky as fuck to care about achievements

Make the sharks fight each other. It’s cheesy. But it works!

First one!!

Could you imagine if you could farm the Lothric Greatsword at this point in the game? I'd love to see what a playthrough with that beast of a weapon would look like.

@@heartnet40 oh hell yeah The Lothric Greatsword is one of the best in the game second only to the Black Knight Greatsword in my opinion

@@crowstepxanth2413i love the black knight greatsword

That’s an insane game for your first souls game

@@ShhImANightmare yea looking back it's a strange choice lol, I must have seen a review or something

they are so hard well not really it's hard to do when you dont have high hp and are good at dodging but i was lucky enough to bet it first try lol

​@@kanesokimi7012it took me a couple of tries because I was enjoying the boss music so much

@@kanesokimi7012it’s easy with the npc phantom summon

@@turq1824 yes yes true just didnt want him to go baby mode

"love" isn't the word I'd use 😭

It was mine too but I am busy replaying it now after a few years and beating all of the soulsborne games (except demon souls) and it’s definitely not as hard as I remembered it. I remember getting stuck on the abyss watchers for hours yet I just first tried them almost effortlessly now. Pontiff Sullivahn was a hard roadblock for me and felt almost impossible at the time. I barely scraped through with 2 summons after at least 20 attempts. Now I just beat him solo on my second attempt. He was actually surprisingly easy now and I was expecting to struggle way more. Maybe it’s because I attempted him so much his attack timings were ingrained in me. I just have the skill now to use the knowledge. It’s wild how much better you get with these games after time.

no way its harder than ER, i played both games and ds3 is definitely easier

the video is totally crap, it didn't show anything except the 2 easiest bosses in the game :D

Dragon Slayer Armor.

How could u go back ? After elden ring to that clunkiness

@@ozrenlazarevic120 to experience originality.

You're in luck, I already streamed the first part and will be making a video on it pretty soon

@@itsSpicyGamingcan’t wait for the “sigh of disappointment” when you get killed by an enemy smashing you through the wall

@@bartvandemortel the Black Gulch, the Blue Smelter Demon boss and Sir Alonne.

@@deathrodamus9608fuck that runback of the blue smelter demon. Fuck that one in particular

I got the claymore on stream just cut it out of the video. I'll have to look around for the trader though, did see them

Get the dlc to fight second hardest boss in fromsoft games, before malenia

@@orangecobraEU I absolutely mogged Malenia, the Putrid Avatar on the Halig Tree Brace bridge was so much worse for me lol (I refused to cheese/use ranged cause I hate myself). I'm definitely going to get the dlc. If I finish the game, but don't start NG+, can I play the dlc then? Not sure how accessing it works.

@@drewbydoobydoo2918 yes you can, you need to find an npc who is teleporting you in the dlc

Yea but I think from soft adding double bosses might be a nod to ornsteim and smough

I played all three dark souls games at once, it was actually kinda nice because if I was stuck on one area I could fall back on an easier area for another game for a bit

That is a crazy way to play, I can move from them quickly with natural skill but not at the same time lawl.

​@@thomasdevlin5825 That's fascinating to me. I feel like an issue I'd run into is I'd get deep into one game but then if I started another it would make me forget the other so when I came back to that deeper area that demands I have a good understanding of the mechanics, world, and NPCs I'd struggle.

​@@AlexHiddleson-ip7cj I feel like learning the stories would just be impossible when jumping around so much. You'd never remember who is who or where.

Do you forget how to ride a bike when you drive a car?

2 hours to beat Vordt actually isn't bad! Especially if you have 0 experience before :)
