  1. People always bash Dark Souls 2, but i find Vanilla Dark Souls 2 to actually be a really fun game to go back to.

    Scholar really made the game tedious and overly frustrating. Not difficult, just cheap and cheesy with constant gank squad, enemy placement that makes little to no sense, and broken mechanics that use to work in vanilla, like adaptive lock-on

  2. I remember watching LobosJr do this run in the vanilla game. I think Looking Glass Knight and the giant's memories are impossible. Also you need to relight the torch for any location after a cut scene, and for Dark Lurker dungeons.

    Now to watch this and see if my memory is correct,

  3. Couldn't make the stream, but I am super happy to see that you're starting on this run! Even if it turns out to be impossible, I will be glad to see how much can be done.

  4. The one thing I genuinely hate about ds2 is that you can't ever seem to break enemy aggro, no matter how far you run

  5. But? The timer isn't going down? So a massive portion of challenge is gone?

  6. Lemon is a medical dude… Knew there was a reason I like you. Assuming you knew the joys of a full moon in the psych ward same as I know as an ambulance dude?

  7. “I like other things to explode, I don’t like to explode myself”
    Lemon forgot the first rule of Firebomb Academy, everything is a firebomb, including yourself.

  8. If you're planning on doing the dlc bosses you're gonna have a bad time in eleum loyce. Until you get past aava & calm the snowstorm you won't be able to use torches there.

  9. Doing streams is easier to creators because you don't have to do a lot of editing. However, there are people that just don't care too much on an open stream so they just wait for the edited version to be released. It is even more true if you have edited your videos very well (which Lemon has) and people that are used to your edits get put out when you do release videos like this. Then you have people that don't have the time to watch a full 3 hour stream so the short edit version is better for their schedule.

    I do hope that you find the best format for you Lemon because I have seen some youtubers get stressed out on the scripts and editing that they just give up to streams. Just find the best way for you or you can look at getting some help for your edits.

  10. Ahh, practice for a run which itself is practice for a torch only run, can't wait to see them!

  11. I'm not sure why, but seeing you succeed makes me feel almost as good as succeeding myself.

  12. Hearing the little haircut story made me chuckle because I had to do the exact same thing when I was broke in college

  13. Oh man, you give me the motivation I need to finally try to beat Ds2 😀
    May the Firebomb Godess have mercy on me !
    Kisses 🙂

  14. I always wanted to make this challenge but I never finished it. Thank you for playing it.
