Can you beat Dark Souls 2 using Lingering Flame? A pyromancy spell that functions like a proximity mine. Enemies come near and they will explode. Sounds powerful, right? Could be… or perhaps only something in that general proximity… It’s a rather specific type of pyromancy only challenge run.

When you praise the sun, but it goes supernova instead… but at least it allows us to end the year with a bang.

What I love about this spell is that in the heat of PvP, it definitely doesn't look like Warmth and make me dive for it only to blow up in a cloud of comedic pain.
Seeing you just miss out on cast speed and dmg boosting gear due to your own lack of research was delightfully cruel.
29:38 Yeah… In every damn DS the devs made it so that your attacks are precise or small hitboxes, while all the enemies have hitboxes of 2-3x of the actual size of their weapons/attacks -.-"
damn this spell seems to be quite straid forward, straid to the point and a dire straid indeed.
Mytha is actually named Mida (ミダ) in japanese.
… was that a joke, or did you really miss the lion mage set earlier in your run?
… oh.
“It’s like the OP-ness is slapping me in the face!”
Yeah… not a sentence you should say out loud…
Ah darksouls 2 the best darksouls.. love it
Flame of the fell god but without any tracking
Everything explodes. Even you, apparently.
3:35 that's the most dutch "eh, hallo?" I've heard in forever
Missed opprtunity to call it Michael bay editon
i spent 116 hours on this game to never play it again once i realise this game is that bad but i love any video of ds2 from you it always remember me that i won't go back to it
I'd love to see more non-souls playthroughs in 2025, if you decide to go through with that. The souls videos are great because your personality and writing style are wildly entertaining, but it would also be great to see you riff on fresher material than the same few FromSoft games.
play fallout man, expecially 1 and 2. awesome games
🤯
Love the seinfeld joke 😆😆😆
My Favorite Darksouls Youtuber ❤❤
what games are you thinking to challenge run them?
I loved the introduction with the Black Adder reference.
this video is blowing up but nothing will explode with the same enthusiasm as my laptop battery a few days ago, merry christmas to me ahahahah
it's probably just a conspiracy but after every dad joke I'm more and more certain that jk and press are the same entity that exists in multiple forms at once like patches
Non-souls stuff? I'd watch bethesda games.
39:44 lol
45:55 Best battle of the run. It totally blew my mind to be so quick
You're actually the witty-est script writer I've seen on YouTube. You're videos are hilarious, I always catch myself thinking about a joke you've made 10 seconds ago not realizing another 10 jokes just went by that were equally good. Every video a masterpiece
Can we please appreciate this man's accent, devotion, usage of dragonball abridged, word puns that are tailored to the videos, and the patience this man has
As always love your runs and your puns!
Thank you Press!
Between the 32 and 33 minute mark, there is background music playing and it’s very subtle… is that from helldivers 2??😂
50 minutes and 56 seconds worth of skill issues.
Dragonforce puns. Love them.
Could I ask what music plays in the background of the introduction? It's somehow really nostalgic and I'm sure I've heard it used by another souls youtuber.
As much as people say they hate this game it's one of my favorites jank and all
The C4 energy drink joke isn't lost on me
Your commentry is so far and beyond any other souls content creator it is surprising you have a relatively low sub count, entertainment must be your middle name
Directed by Michael Bay killed me. ❤
Happy New Year!
Aah yes another master work to enjoy new year… 🎉🎉 love the ds community man 😂
9:35 Same problem with Soul Flash a DLC spell that forms a pillar arround you to push enemies away.
Where's that bit in the beginning from? It sounds like something I should recommend to my dad 😂
"ScorpioNES"
I am deceased
I have been killed
You really bombed it with the puns
What was the song in the intro? Kinda gave me SOAD vibes
I had always heard how powerful this spell was, and I actually used it briefly against the chariot to some good damage…your video has made me realize, it was in fact, not a good spell, I just was buffed out the wazoo lmao
