Elden Ring is an action role-playing game played in a third-person perspective with gameplay focusing on combat and exploration; it features elements similar to those found in other games developed by FromSoftware, such as the Souls series, Bloodborne, and Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice. Director Hidetaka Miyazaki explained that players start with a linear opening but eventually progress to freely explore the Lands Between, including its six main areas, as well as castles, fortresses, and catacombs scattered throughout the open world map - Hry
No maidens?
Ye tarnished is maidenless!
Alexander is all the maidens we need...

When is the next ep up?
"I offer you an accord"
"A HONDA ACCORD?? SICK!"
This and then there just being an actual Honda Accord plastered over Melina absolutely murdered me
Jack good.
Edit: A bunch of bots were saying mean things about Jacky boy.

@Kavetion no u
Watched the entire Bloodborne playthrough, just finished the 6-hour Dark Souls 1 playthrough, now I NEED to re-watch this
Can’t wait for the dlc announcement tomorrow
@@spudmuffin2688 Saw the trailer right now, it's going to be CRAZY
@@CocoSpanielLegit trying to save up some money for the DLC. Already spent 10% of my income and im now digging into my reserve XD
thats exactly what Im doing
@@whisperexe it’s $39.99
I will say this forever and ever, one of my favorite parts of elden ring is how the boss fights will consistently make you say "oh, shit..." They always make you wonder how the hell you're supposed to defeat this absolute abomination of god in front of you, and when you finally get it, you celebrate and woop and holler, because it was hard as fuck.
My boyfriend is currently helping me through my playthrough, first ever Souls game. He kept encouraging me as I got my ass beat by Margit, saying it took him close to 15 tries to defeat him. It got so frustration that I actually had to stop before I started crying but I GOT HIS ASS THE NEXT TIME!!!! It only took me 10 tries, which he told me isn't that much. I also got Godric down to 1/3 health my first try
@@vee7330 yea my first souls game was dark souls 3 but I went through it with my dad Elden ring was the first one I soloed an now I’ve played the crap out of it and now I’m quite good it took a lot of time to kill the bosses on my first play through
Well that's every souls game
Fucking Margit, I got the game four days ago, and I only just today beat Margit
I needed to get Sorcerer Rogier to help at the start, then I lowered his HP to about 20%, summoned those Spirit Wolves, had them chip away for a bit while I threw fire pots, and after that it was all a matter of skill and what little game knowledge I had
Landing that final hit felt like I’d just conquered an entire kingdom, and it was the first boss
I beat Godrick today for the first time and it felt amazing, also I agree about the bosses being scary, this is the first game in a while we're I've been genuinely scared to fight bosses. 😅
I’m so hyped to watch this whole series in one night for two reasons
1. I fuckin love elden ring
2. I fuckin love jackcepticeye
This is gonna be awesome
Omg so badass
I’m so unbelievably happy that Jack is playing this. Partially because I love watching him play souls games, but mostly because I need someone to explain what’s going on to me.
@Beast v2🔥cringe
@Kavetion also cringe
@@hangout7811 stop replying to bots bro. listen to jack, he's the one who said it from the beginning. i'm telling so many ppl
Honestly I thought for the longest time that the Tarnished were meant to be like fallen warriors that were brought back to life cause of the opening cutscene where you see a lot of the Round Table hold NPCs and then you see a MASSIVE tomb-like place of a lot of covered bodies and the narrator is like "NOW RISE TARNISHED" or whatever but it turns out the tarnished were banished from the Erdtree's Blessing or something and are back because of the Shattering. Like the first one makes a lot of sense but the actual one is oh yeah the Erdtree didn't like you so you were kicked out of the Lands Between but now you're back go be Elden Lord.
So you like being held by the hand to play a game??
Jack: "I've completed it about 5 times already I've got 250 hours into it
Me who is on my first playthrough and is at 170 hours: 👁👄👁

@@papa_kento8374 I'm half decent at soulsbourne games so it takes me a bit to beat some of the ahrder bosses like mohg and melania

@@theSemiChrist i meant 170 i think its obvious i pressed the wrong button
@@papa_kento8374 but,, they said 170 hours, not level 170
I love the writing of Elden Ring, they give the Tarnished so much personality, between reactions being commented on by npcs and actually having dialog options instead of just yes or no now the Tarnished gives such an air headed and somehow innocent vibe, which makes sense considering how the Tarnished is so often referred to as young
Hey how are you doing?😂
"That narrator just gave 100%, didn't he?"
Fr! I've seen the opening like 5 times, and I always get goosebumps! The "Ooooh RIIISE, ye Tarnished!" is so epic!
Jack uploading a 2 hour video that wasn't a live stream, amazing. Really goes to show how big the game is for Jack to do this. This is gonna be the start like like a 20 video series 2 hour long each I hope.

I had an intresting experience with tree sentinel. I didn’t try and fight him, but I was in awe of his armor and got a little too close. Next thing you know there is a bosses health bar at the bottom of my screen and I’m screaming as I run for my dear life.
I picked the wretch origin, and thought it was a mandatory boss fight. Ya I died
I was super rusty with souls games when Elden Ring dropped so I uhh maybe spent like 4 hours doing just that.
@@Speeplonk i had never played souls games before elden ring and now i just want to play more of them
Right there with ya. Managed to kill it after 6 hours of game time and 3 weeks of being upset with it not realizing there's AN ENTIRE WORLD LITERALLY SURROUNDING YOU.
I’ve listened to this series 3 times while also completing my own 3 play throughs I’ve did each main ending. This was my first FromSoft game and it’s overall my favorite game I’ve ever played. Thank you so much for creating a series and helping me enjoy the game more.

I love Jack's major dose of confidence; kills the boss, reckons he'll take on a dragon.
And he actually fucking kills it 😭😭
After Jack said that Bloodborne was his favorite game of all time, I knew that Elden Ring was going to be a contender once he started playing it, he’s in for quite a ride.

How are all your replies bots
@@nurvis3489 Apparently that happens when the video is new.
Holy shit, you got verified?
Jack: The first boss isn't that difficult
Me: *Crying in pain*
if you haven’t played souls before he is, took me 4 hours, jack is also good.
Get good or uninstall the game is soulsbourns moto I guess
me to
Keep in mind for most of the early bosses, the challenge is up to how many smithing stones you get for your weapons, because if you explore well, you can get your weapon way higher level than "supposed" and in turn do a whole ton more damage. Bleed builds are also pretty powerful, especially with dual wielding.
Obviously though, dodging/blocking properly is dependant on your skill level, and generally that will still be the biggest thing to determine whether or not you'll win.
That guy he said we shouldn't die to at the beginning.... the one with the spear.... yeah um I've died to that a few to many times.
Surprisingly, Elden Ring is much more forgiving in terms of "softlocking" yourself out of side quests than previous souls games. Instead of just rendering a quest undoable when you do something a lil too soon, Elden Ring mostly just automatically skips stages of side quests or simply allows you to do them whenever you want (no rush or anything). Pretty neat
good for me because I manage to do everything in the worst order possible, going to the hardest areas first and working backwards somehow
Been playing as a female Warrior and noticed something about the dialogue: When Melina first shows up on Torrent, her lines slightly change depending on your chosen gender.
I love little details like that.
I'm a well-versed veteran of FromSoft's work by now (first got a taste for it with _Armored Core: For Answer,_ if anyone cares), but what genuinely surprised me on my first playthrough was how much _fun_ I was having doing _nothing._ I was already at Level 50 when I remembered there was a castle I was supposed to be storming -- 15 levels later, I _still_ keep finding excuses to explore instead.
I killed radahn at lv 58 and cheesed godrick with rotten stray that I found in caelid from exploring. scarlet rot tick damage helped me a lot
Man I miss the entire armored core series. I wish they built another.
That’s the beauty of it :)
@@thomasedwards4315 Apparently they're working on _Armored Core 6_ right now. Not much to show yet, but Miyazaki's confirmed it's not just rumors.
@@goofyahhh254 Considering Margit went down like a sack of spuds when I got around to facing him, I'm sure I could flatten Godrick without much trouble. I'm just having more fun exploring the rest of the map and finding new nooks and crannies and smile-inducing surprises like the one at Murkwater Cave.
I like how the more colourful aesthetic makes the enemies and bosses more defined. In many of the other games although they still had cool designs, they would end up just looking like a mass of grey making it harder to appreciate their design.
Agreed, FromSoft really made a thought out and awesome masterpiece with Elden Ring
I think what they did with ds3 was very artistic, the grey world being a symbolism of how decayed its become. It makes scenes like leaving the catacombs to see the city of irythil much more memorable, yet I still love the colorful world they made with elden ring
@Kavetion i will look into where i asked
DON'T read my name! :D :D :D
I didn’t think I’d enjoy watching someone actually playing this because I figured it would be all failure and rage, but Jack is so impressive at this honestly lol. Wow.
I enjoy the smile that creeps across Jacks face when he plays games he truly loves.
Man it's so refreshing starting another person's playthrough with them already having experienced the game. I don't have to watch another person wander aimlessly, learn the mechanics, and try to fight things that are obviously way out of their league. I can already tell this will be a quick and efficient series that we'll all enjoy very much!
eh, we have to start somewhere, no one's perfect from the beginning 🤷🏻♀️
I agree! It is nice to see someone who knows what they are doing for a game like this.
Difficult games are better to watch someone who's beaten it, easy games are better if they haven't played it before.
Well, I disagree completely.
It’s fun watching a personality you like discover new things in a game like this and see their honest reaction whether it’s fear, surprise or wonder.
It’s fun watching them wander aimlessly then fall into an epic boss fight or happen upon a mysterious character or location for the first time.
It’s fun watching them grow and learn the mechanics and fight things way out if their league. Some of my favourite videos are of Jack doing just that.
I like this video, but I would have loved to see Jack’s first reactions as he explored the game. It’s always refreshing and never gets old. But I completely understand why he wanted to experience this game for himself and don’t blame him.
@@makasete30 100% agree! Seeing someone's reactions for the first time makes it so much fun to watch
Sean: “FINALLY I have clear validation for why my head is such a mess” (talking about how he was diagnosed w/ ADHD)

I was looking for this comment. 😂

Seán having a neurodivergent revelation is far too relatable. As someone else who had a diagnosis of neurodivergence in adulthood, looking back on your childhood/past and seeing how you fit all the signs and everything is pointing directly to being neurodivergent. The feeling of "Wow, I've had this all my life." It's like a plot twist. There's foreshadowing, the whole 9 yards.
This, had my diagnosis last year and finally (important) people recognise that life ís harder for me, because of the consequences of it. Not because i dont want to do stuff...
People who dont recognise it, are not important anymore
@@kathyhalters4288 That is another thing as well. Ableism affects the neurodivergent, no matter if they choose to acknowledge it or not. And that is the importance of being aware and having words to describe the experiences. To take that away is to take away the basis of problem solving.
@@Envrionmela the biggest ableist appears to be me though. I have to unlearn all those things, because i keep repeating it in my mind.
So Yeah, the ableism is so ingrained for a lot of us neurodivergent, we became part of the problem...
@@kathyhalters4288 very true. That’s another big thing about having the benefit of hindsight. Is how it shows that the times we’re hard on ourselves for being neurodivergent is a reflection of the behaviour shown to us in out developmental years.
I want exactly what Jack wants in video games, like the giants and massive monsters, that's why fantasy I find really cool
I love when Sean does more educational gameplay vids; where he explains lore and points out voice actors and things like that. It's so helpful and interesting
Idk why, but i keep forgetting that his name isn’t Jack, it’s Sean lol
I agree that is one of the reasons I watch him
Jack makes this game look so damn easy. Loaded with maidens he is.
They just go to a different school
Yes master yoda
Funny seeing u here qt
I watched your latest game plays of dark souls 1&3 and bloodborne and it really makes me want to start the series. I've only ever played Dark Souls, and nothing beyond it. But watching you play makes me want to really play them all

Me: "What a coincidence -- so was _I,_ after the thing fell on my _head."_
Bro the jumping Mausoleum made me shit my pants lmao
I got so jealous when he talked about how he would just explore irl and find old dilapidated buildings. I've always wanted to explore and find things like that.
Urbex is super cool. Been doing it with an organized (well, self-organized) group for the past year and a half or so. Coolest place we've been to was an abandoned military outpost with a bunker beneath it up on a mountain. Honestly, if you are interested in Urbex, find a friend or two who you think could enjoy it too, bring flashlights, basic first aid and phones, and then look up online for cool places around your area. There are lots of Urbex communities everywhere, and humans being humans - we abandon our stuff as quickly as we create it, you can bet there are abandoned structures around you no matter where you are. Just make sure to read about the place if any info is available, to know what sorts of dangers might be inside (say, collapses, wildlife, hobos who use the place as a drug den? I've encountered all, lol.) Otherwise, if there is no info available, and honestly even if there is - keep your guard up, be careful with every step and don't be too ballsy. And, ofc, always use your head. Don't want to be in an abandoned basement while it's raining outside, for instance. Awful place to drown, some old hospital's maintenance tunnel.
Stop by Connecticut. Got a lot of those.
i do that here in detroit but it’s dangerous af
@@yourdude5629 lmao i dont think exploring old abandoned buildings with crackheads living in them is the same thing as exploring old ruins in fields
Same! No old dilapidated buildings in Australia. Too new a country!
(Not trying to spoil it for those who don't know)The beginning where it shows the Elden Ring being shattered has a neat nod to later in the game if you pay attention to the haircut and I thought it was a fantastic look back on my second playthrough. I'm glad this game is getting positive feedback and people are enjoying it
Jack I love this videos I watch you do bloodbore and I was trying to get into but I couldn’t and then I saw your bloodbore video and it helped me so much and now that I’ve seen these videos they have help me so much

I'm so not into playing these games myself, but I absolutely LOVE to see others play them! So thank you Jack for uploading these series, so I too can enjoy these stories and beautiful sceneries!
Yes! I couldn't agree with this more!
I completely agree, I love to watch these playthroughs. I have been watching GabSmolders do the entire playthrough and it is fun and great quality but I had been hoping he would do a playthrough just to watch a different perspective and build!
You should try playing one of the games with a walkthrough. I used to not be able to beat Dark Souls but I watched a walkthrough and haven’t needed one in any of the other games. But it doesn’t have to be for you and that’s okay
I've only played the tiniest bit of this game, and it's been a ton of fun. The combat is so clean and the visuals are gorgeous. I had a really funny moment where the lady shows up and I turned to my friend and said "is that Merlina from Sonic and the Black Knight" because they've both got the hooded sorceress thing going on, and then it turns out her name is Melina which is literally one letter off... I laughed so hard at that tiny coincidence.
I’m 50 hours in and fall more in love with it every time I play
I'm about 200 hrs in and I'm still in love with it. Currently on ng+1 playthrough
I have done a few run through of Bloodborne after watching your series of it & highly enjoyed it all, even purchased the DLC 👍🏼 Now I am beginning my Elden Ring journey 🙌🏼 Thank you for the great videos!
Never decided to sit down and watch Jack play through this game until now. This game is easily my favorite game of all time. Clocking in at around 400+ hours and still playing it. Can't wait to just binge the whole playthrough
A full videogame playthrough from Jack is like watching a movie with him.
DON'T read my name! :D :D :D
The part where Sean had no health and still killed the boss had me on the edge of my SEAT! Holy CRAP that cool! This game is so immersive I had fun just watching it!
Literally screamed with him!
@@Vick07 SAME OMG, I fist bumped the sky when the enemy went down lol
Watching someone else play a video game and playing it yourself gives you the same endorphins.
@@therandomshow_ I DID TO LMAO
Bro slaying tough bosses is the biggest reason I like metroidvanias (especially DS games it’s got like the perfect setting and everything) and the only thing cooler than killing a boss is killing it when you’re a hit away from death and you’re just hyper focused and the adrenaline is pumping, and I can feel all that bleeding over watching him fight.
This and his blood born series are his best because it’s him gushing about his hyper fixation, and he just seems so happy to be doing it so it makes amazing content
DISCLAIMER: I have not yet played Elden Ring, but will share my thoughts on what I’ve seen so far.
The little details show how far FromSoftware as a studio have come since the days of PS3 Demon’s Souls - I noticed that when you speak to characters, their mouths actually move as opposed to just speaking like a ventriloquist. Also, the ambitious move to open-ended exploration while keeping the signature SoulsBorne interconnectivity (as well as its mad difficulty) intact seems like it has really paid off considering its massive sales numbers since its release in February earlier this year. This is the epitome of a studio going full-on ambition and making it work astonishingly well.
If you’re looking for a FromSoft game to play before this, I definitely recommend Bloodborne as gameplay elements from that game (i.e. viscerals) have been kept - even improved upon - here.
EDIT: I also agree with Sean about the summoning - FromSoft games are designed to be played any way the player wants; summoning companions to fight tougher bosses is sometimes the best way to get a boss killed more easily. A few examples: I almost defeated the Blood-Starved Beast in Bloodborne on my first try; I tried using Jack’s strategy but it fell apart halfway through the fight and paid dearly for it. Not wanting to botch things up again, I summoned Alfred for help and beat him second try, and despite suffering from poison static effects more times than I’d like to admit, we made it through with half health each. Amelia? Didn’t break a sweat. However, Darkbeast Paarl was a doozy; even though it took two tries, each with a summon, I still had major trouble keeping my companion alive - he died 3/4 of the way through, but it was a little better second try (I actually beat every boss I’ve encountered so far in less than 3 tries, to even my surprise). The thing is, the way I play, I like to summon a companion (sometimes as a last resort) so that he/she can draw the boss’s aggro away from me so I have time to catch my breath and refill my health and stamina; that way it makes it a little easier on me and I can actually make sure I have sufficient stamina to attack and dodge.
For me summoning just removes my need for dodging so I don't really use it beside elden ring because in elden ring it feels more so than the other games that you are MENT to use the spirit and player summons so yeah that's my take.
@@ahkosorsomesaykosby9999 26:07, that’s all I gotta say to you
“I’m not trying to fight Tree Sentinel right away. I’m not trying to prove something by spending 4 hours trying to beat him right away.”
Jack, there is no need to attack us like that, man.
Literally. I stayed up late into the night, sleep deprived, fighting the fucker four 4 hours and didn't kill him.
DON'T read my name! xD
Jack before playing Elden Ring: “Bloodborne was the best game ever.”
Jack after playing Elden Ring: “Move on over.”
Given that Bloodborne came out seven years ago, I think he'll still have Bloodborne higher. He's beaten Elden Ring at least twice.
Bloodborne story is by far better
Thats why you should never proclaim a game as the best ever no matter how much you like it
@@kubobetterrelax7435 it's also had 6-7 years to culminate. Once any DLC comes out and we make more connections Elden Ring will likely be up there, don't know about better though, but Bloodborne was treated pretty similarly back in the day
@@Cybersomnia True. The game-play and weapon variety of ER is much better but the story doesn't capture my imagination in the same way. From the get go the aesthetic and world of Bloodborne was very rich in lore. The narrative was quite unique and complex but easy to understand once you got a picture of the world.
jack had an awesome childhood, I wish I grew up in a place like that all rural with fields and forests with castles and churches all over the place
This entire first episode has the same energy as “I’M GOING TO BE KING OF THE PIRATES!!”
Jack: beaten the game ~5 times after around 250 hours
Me: hasn't beaten the game once after nearly 500 hours
(Edit (5/4/22)) Me again: after 569 hours (nice), has finally gotten around to beating Elden Ring
Congratulations you have been selected among the shortlisted winner's for the ongoing Ps5 giveaway 👆👆👆👆...
Jack is a true gamergod confirmed
Damn what have you been doing for 500 hours?!
@@TheBakingYeast Mainly? Having too much fun with the character creator
This is me as well, haha
given how I'm 100 hours in and not even close to beating the game... Jack's series will at least be 50 parts.
no he pro gamer
He already played this game so he knows what to prioritize or not so he'll likely skip some areas with weapon rewards not for his build.
He finished bloodborne + the dlc in only 3 parts
@@bismarckimperia8781 He finished it? Did he stream it?
he said hes finished it 5 times though
watching this after watching the replay of darksouls 1 he just posted
Same
Getting to the round table is dependent on the amount of deaths you have OR reaching the tunnel before the Margit fight, whichever comes first
Jack talking about summons made me remember how mad i was fighting the bloodhound and struggling then learning that if you talked to blaidd and started his quest you can summon him during the fight and make it so much easier
I DID THIS! Fought that bitch 10 times, met blaidd 5 hours later, and the ease of the battle made me gawk
DON'T read my name! :D :D :D
I didn't know about that the first time I fought him, but I beat him easily enough as a sorcerer. Magic is a beast in this game.
When I realized the howling in the ruins was Blaidd on my second time through, I looked it up online and followed that quest chain. I'll definitely be doing it that way from now on, just because it's fun to see Blaidd in action and makes the fight much simpler.
Just finished his Bloodborne playthrough a couple weeks ago, and was so excited to see this in my feed. Haven't watched anyone else yet, just heard talk about it, and that Jack has already played it and just sharing it with us now has made me unreasonably happy. XD Bloodborne's playthrough was a delight to watch him have fun with something familiar and already solved, so I can't wait to start this!
Me too :D though I've seen trailers for Elden Ring bc of ads before lol but I wasn't complaining, the trailer is super cool 💀
Watching Sean beat a boss in two attempts (would’ve been one if he didn’t fall) that I spent like 2hrs on hurts 💀
He beat this game 7 times before this playthrough that's why 💀
at least u didn’t spend two days on it 💀

Sean: "I _think_ these are a reference to _Berserk._ FromSoft games have a lot of references to _Berserk_ in them."
Blaidd: "My lupine ears are burning again."
There was also a massive shrine/memorial to the author I heard.
@@Legendary_Detective-Wobbuffet A fitting tribute, given the series' influence on the _Souls_ series.
I am super thrilled you decided to upload a playthrough of Elden Ring. I was looking forward to yours more than anyone else's. That being said, I also wanted to say congratulations on getting your official diagnosis, Jack! I hope getting medication and help goes smoothly for you. My 7 year old was diagnosed with ADHD this year after a very challenging couple of years in school, and we are finally taking the steps to get him the help he needs. His father was also diagnosed back in his school days, and we suspect that I am undiagnosed, as my mom (often) tells me about how much my son's behaviors reminds her of me as a child. And I'm a mess as an adult now, haha. Best of luck!
I was looking forward to him playing it too,and good wishes to you and your family!
What was he diagnosed for
Adhd here
Hope everything goes well for you all!
Jack is irrelevant
My content is way better
@@Renthearsonist adhd
Coming back to this vid after beating elden ring a couple times now jacks the reason i actually beat it
Thanks jack your the best
Came here from the Bloodborne series - really looking forward to watching all the vids. Great work!
I’ve got like almost done 170 hours on one character haven’t even finished the game yet because I’ve been trying to find everything I possibly can.
Elden Ring is so good
Fucking same, not knocking jack, but how the living shit has he beat it 5 times?! I know others have too that many times at this point, but christ lol I feel ya
@@Necromorph790 I have beaten it three times with a total of 150 hours. I might be missing content but I have calculated that you technically only need to beat 10 (8 depending on what events you trigger). So yeah you can beat it pretty quickly if you know what you are doing.
As a souls veteran my first main playthrough where I 100%’d (ish) the map was about 120 hours I believe!
Hes a god at these games too so I feel like he woulda taken the same amount of time on his first run, then his other runs he would have focused more on questing for his specific intended builds and not clearing every single enemy and grabbing every item.
@@Necromorph790 after your first playtrough, you'll just skip most stuff because it's totally useless and just do the main quests
lol same im about 150 hrs and still have a lot to do, its really addicting
"I'd be a great Elden Lord. I'd bring back topless Tuesday."
That's it. He's got my vote!
The field of swords looks a lot like a monument nearby where I live called Sverd i Fjell, or Swords in Mountain/Rock. It's three massive swords lodged in the rocks right by the sea to commemorate the battle at Hafrsfjord fought between 872 and 900, and is considered the defining battle which united Norway under one rule.

Sir, I pre ordered it, when it got announced and played it, with the same profile, til my game time was at MAX. And yes I am maidenless.

I did think it was cool until I found out that torrents double jump doesn't save you from fall damage. Like if you fall from a high spot, and you activate that jump it doesn't save you from the fall you take all that damage ☺️
Which is why they put in those spring jumps.
FINALLY! The moment we've all been waiting for. Looking forward to watching this series 😁
