      A line with the same weight for me is the one in Demon's Souls uttered by Stockpile Thomas, saying: "You have a heart of gold don't let them take it from you". He was truly grateful to us for finding the hairpin which belonged to his daughter. In a fucked up, where doom almost certain to all, it is good to see that a little gesture of kindness can still make a world of difference in someone else's life. The Nexus still is one of my favorite hub worlds in the whole Soulsborne genre.

    Dark souls helped me overcome opiate addiction. I was going through withdrawal while playing through it. The theme of perseverance in the face of hopelessness and suffering mirrored my actual real life situation. It was a great focus for me and it felt as though all the hurdles and tribulations I was overcoming in the game were a metaphor for my actual struggle. It will always be the game that helped me regain control of my life and helped me through the darkest part of me life. I'll be forever grateful to dark souls. 5 years clean, thank you dark souls

    Y'know, this game helped me too, in a bit different way. I was suicidal, even attempted once. But I bought DS3, and it basically taught to me to not give up. I felt some kind of security, idk how to express it. "Praise the Sun" makes me think that even in the darkest times, a light will be found somewhere. Idk... I might sound paranoid to some cause basically a videogame made me reconsider my entire life. It made me want to try harder and harder, until I achieve my goals.

      @@flamingmanure I would argue that DS1 did it best though, and that comes as someone who started with DS3 back in 2016 and didn't play the other games until 2020 (the souls games anyway, I did play Sekiro and complete one single run of Bloodborne somewhere in 2019).
      DS1 is by no means perfect, hell, the latter half of the game is honestly pretty shit in places and the remaster didn't even try to address the issues.
      But, DS1 is also the game that tried the hardest to create its own unique identity, through its level design, its lore, its NPCs, its take on a proper challenge... DS2 certainly had atmosphere, and Majula is easily the best hub in the Souls trilogy, but overall the game lost itself in production hell, leading to a lack of understanding of what made DS1 great especially regarding the difficulty aspect of the game. DS3 was the most polished of the 3, with the best bossfights by a long shot, but the game leaned heavily on reference to DS1 and thus lacked identity through most of its life, I'd say the game really became its own only with The Ringed City DLC.
      What I'm trying to say is, despite the fact that I think DS3 is the best of the 3, DS1 is the special one that couldn't be replicated. With all its merits and its flaws, it's THE Dark Souls experience in its purest form,.

  • @reaps_playground

    Watching your videos to me always kinda feels like a conversation with some stranger that you happen to connect with. I always love those kinds of conversations, but in the last two and a half years I haven't had any of those, because they usually happened on a chill bus ride on the way home after a day out in the city with friends, and I haven't really had the chance to do that anymore.
    You know, that feeling of meeting someone you've never seen before, talking about a very specific thing you're both passionate about for about 20 minutes, and then parting ways with the words "see you around!", only to realize you may never see them again, but always treasure that little moment of human connection. I don't know, it's got something very sweet to it that always makes my day so much better than it already was.
    So thank you so much for giving me a place where I can feel like that even when I don't have the chance to go out like that anymore!
    And congrats on the 70k, dude!

    Your videos always resonate with me. They hit me hard… and I’m better off for it. Thank you for creating the type of content that you create. I actually came across one of your videos very recently (maybe only 2 weeks ago I think?), and I’m so damn glad I did because I can easily say you’ve been my personal favorite Mr. CZcams Boy since then.
    And congratulations on the rapid channel growth you’ve been having! Seriously, you’ve earned it and very much deserve it! Can’t wait to see your channel continue to grow and all the awesome videos that come along with it! Keep it up and never stop doing this thing you love!

    Even though it wasnt my first from soft game and not even my favourite one of the series, i have to admit dark souls 1 just hits different compared to every other game.
    There´s just something that feels so special about it, both in terms of gameplay and atmosphere that words alone truly cannot make it justice. I can totally see why this masterpiece is said to be one of the most influential and important games ever.
    Great video as always!! Keep it up cause this channel defenitely has a bright future

    Vaati makes some incredibly high quality videos and I love them to death. But at this point, I would absolutely recommend looking into The Brother's Code. They make what are essentially feature film length videos on the lore of Fromsoft games. The Dark Souls 1 video is right over 2 hours long but it gives everything that happens in the story and different outcomes that occur and presents it all in an incredibly easily digestible way. Great video btw man! Found you from the Pokemon region design video and am loving the stuff you're making!

I've made videos since I was 15, now I am in university and after 3years of doing nothing with my channel, you kind of rekindled my flame of ambition (souls reference right). The format you use I always found very interesting when I first saw NakeyJakey do it. I've got these green curtains in my room, so you probably get the gig. I want to make videos like you and hell I already have a green screen! Thanks for being my support, during my lonely times between lectures in these hellhole called university.

    I remember when I played Dark Souls 1 the very first time back in 2012.. It was the exact same ''ahaa'' moment once I used that Elevator-shortcut back to Firelink Shrine. Ever since, I fell in love with the Game. And I also Agree, that the bridge, that connects Undead Parish with Sens Fortress is so soothing, especially seeing big Onion sitting there.
    I wish so bad I could erase my memories of this game just to replay it again for the first time.

    I just did an "only pre-lit bonfire" run and the feeling of having to plan out my spells and miracles before venturing forward (and that I would only be able to level upon my return) created much more of a survival atmosphere that I really loved. It also made Firelink Shrine (in particular) that much more special and comforting.
