- Fashion Souls. It's all about that today. Let's see who gets to look cool first!
(Technically all of them look cool but you get the idea)
Anyhow, I hope this ended up being somewhat more enjoyable than the other ones -- I tried to do some more editing to (hopefully) make it a better experience -- in any case, please let me know your thoughts (negative and positive) if you so desire -- I appreciate all of it, sincerely!!

Demons souls vs sekiro engaging in quantum battle here
Sekiro wins because he has a cool hand
In Demon's Souls remake tho, the og classic flute helmet can be found ingame, cuz the armor got redesigned by Bluepoint, so that kinda counts
As for Sekiro, all you really need is his prosthesis post-genichiro first fight
When first playing DS2 I thought I missed something obvious to not find the main armour set until stumbling into it near the end of the game.
I know right? I was so happy when I first got it
only to end up fatrolling xD
You start with the drip in Sekiro so it wins with 0:00 seconds on the clock
nope, you would need to die to genichiro to get the prosthetic arm as well so it would be a bit more
@@turquoise7817 true, but by skipping cutscenes and dieing quickly it still comes out on top
Sekiro is the true Elden Lord
@@lorenzogrieco4928 Nah you can still start with the flute set in Demons Souls
Sekiro is a souls game? It’s just not similar at all
If I could, I would 100 percent want to dress like these dudes lol
Would be hard getting day to day stuff done with a suit of armour but something like the Bloodborne clothes (at least most of them) would be wear-able without being much of a hinderance
Still need all the drip
When I saw the title, I knew you'd be in a world of pain because of Souls 3. Having the final boss as the cover armor is rough...
Although this makes me realize that Vyke's, Firelink, and Faraam are found at the later parts of the game. That's quite the journey.
If anything, it was an awesome journey to have -- it's always a fun time whenever I have an excuse to play these x)
@@fermyonds A journey for Fashion Souls is as important as becoming Elden Lord!
@@LarusFotiaif not more important
I still cannot believe they locked the Raging Wolf armor set behind such a specific sidequest lmao
I'd argue that weapons and shields are also important for cosplay...
I was considering this to be honest.. but I've decided to just go for the armour sets since its usually what sticks out best. Maybe it was a mistake and I should've gone for the weapons too. My bad
What are the weapons? I think is something like
DeS: Longsword and Kite Shield
DS1: Astora Sword and Crest Shield
DS2: Drangleic Sword and Golden Wing Shield
BB: Saw Cleaver and Hunter Blunderbuss
DS3: Bastard Sword/Claymore/Firelink Greatsword
ER: Bastard Sword and Iron Roundshield
If I recall, the OG Demon Souls fluted knight armor is your reward for beating the tutorial boss
@@ConnieFWill In the remake you actually can pick up the og style Helm from that area as the Fluted set itself was redesigned, Bluepoint added a new helm with the design of the og Fluted Helm
I've never beaten the tutorial boss but I guess I'll be doing that this weekend x) thank you for the information!
@@ConnieFWillcorrect.
No, lol.
@@fermyondsyou get the og helmet!!!
Which Soulsborne protagonist can talk to Patches first
I do have plans with Patches for the near future!
I wonder how low I could get that Dark Souls II time… under an hour I think, though the biggest contributing factor will be The Rotten’s RNG.
You're very good at the game so I'm confident you could do a sub 1 hour run or even faster. I also think it might be better to just grab the Ascetic from the Lost Bastille rather than Chloanne -- I'll have to try a run like that too x)
Fermyon: "BTW I'm bad at these games"
Also Fermyon: *blitzes ds3 in under 3 hours*
You just gained a sub you beautiful man
Aww man thank you genuinely! Means a lot!
And honestly I see soo many people get sub 1 hour runs for DS3, something I aim to do someday too x)
Love these kinds of videos man keep on making them its always so interesting seeing you can speedrun certain things besides just beating the game a certain way
Thank you for your comment, sincerely -- I promise I'll try to always do fun and random meme-y stuff!
Thank you once again
Brilliant video! I love the change up in chronology I'm glad you took the advice onboard. Looking forward to more in this series soon!
I should be the one thanking you for giving it in the first place -- It means a lot, genuinely
Could we take a moment to apreciate how this guy answers like every single comment
Honestly man, I'm just happy I get to talk about one of my favourite hobbies with people. It makes my days so much better being able to talk about it to this extent. Sometimes it can be overwhelming but I'll try to always get back to someone if possible
@fermyonds that's pretty awesome dude, I also enjoy talking about this game extensively, and watching content like this really makes me happy!
Keep up with the good work ma fella 💪
Thanks a lot, that means much to me! Wish you the best as well
Okay, not gonna lie, the opening to this video was one of the most poetic things about the Souls games ever
Thank you for that!! At many points I was thinking of just scrapping it since it kinda went on for a bit but I'm glad I kept that in
You could also get the original fluted helm in DeS way earlier if you defeat the Vanguard Demon but it costs a couple of minutes or more
I didn't know that was a thing -- never beat the Vanguard Demon x) but thanks for the info!
I like how in ds3 boss montage you included boss's thing hes good at or a part of him, but better.
Like outsmarting the sourcerer or overseeing the watchers.
I remember when I was making this, I was contemplating if I should really keep all that in -- I was concerned it might not fit the video / be funny. Ended up doing it and I'm genuinely glad to see I did the right thing.
Super glad you liked that bit!
I also had similar idea a month ago, but because I haven't played demon's souls and bloodborne yet I could only guess how fast can you get armor of protagonists in dark souls series and elden ring
Thank you for this video, I can finally see what's going on in demon's souls and bloodborne
P.S.
In ds3 you can skip some bosses - Vordt (unloaded arena) and Crystal Sage (skip with perfect jump)
And some bosses can be cheesed - Watchers (if they haven't patched this, you can break his ai so he won't attack you), Wolnir (poison or pestilent mist, but it's longer), and Aldrich (also you can break his ai and it's very easy)
I'll have to look into those strats actually, I've never known that! I remember the Princes had some sort of cheese in Phase 2 as well where they'd stay still for the duration of phase2, but didn't know about these other ones, so thank you!
And honestly I really, really hope we get both DeS and Bloodborne on PC sometime :( would be so cool for us all to enjoy the games
ive really been enjoying watching these videos, keep it up man
I'm super happy to hear that -- still got so many runs I want to do, so its gonna last for a while x)
I thought that the Box Art set for The Hunter was in the alternate sewers you get to through the drops with the ladder all the way back up hidden behind some coffins
I personally think it's the Hunter Garb without the cape, ALTHOUGH I could be wrong on this, in which case, my bad!!
Isn't the armor Vyke is wearing in the cover art just regular knight armor you can get at the roundtable? It only becomes the fingerprint armor after he took on the flame of frenzy
You're correct! I forgot that pre-fingered Vyke has the regular knight armour. It went completely over my head and I was so hyperfocused on the fingerprint set vs. raging wolf :( that was my mistake
Afaik, the original fluted helm design from Demon's Souls is actually in the remake, you just need to beat the tutorial Vanguard Demon. Not sure if the rest of the set is there too, but if you're going for the iconic look then maybe it'd be a good option to try?
I actually didn't know that was a thing until someone pointed it out to me (and thanks to you as well for the comment regarding this) -- I never set myself to beat the Vanguard Demon but I guess I'll have to try now!
When Zweihander run?
Here's the plan; if things go well, hopefully by the end of the month. Worst case scenario, early April. I also have an April's Fools video I really want to make so I might prioritize it for now, but I promise the Zweihander (and a few others) won't be forgotten
Keep it up bro!
Thank you very much!
I feel like the ER one could be up to interpretation. Raging Wolf (alt) is what is in all of the trailers, but most posters and covers have Vyke’s armor instead. Both sets require you to kill 3 demigods, (Morgott and the 2 required to reach him), but Vyke’s set is sidequest free, as you just need to kill him in the evergaol, versus doing 4 invasions to get Raging Wolf
Nvm just watched further lmao
I'm still thinking I should've prolly done a separate character and get the Wolf set instead but damn it was funny reading this comment chain x) loved your reaction in the 2nd comment
Finally a good video 🗣️💯
Thank you sincerely!! I'll try to do even better for anything I may upload in the near future x)
The Elite Knight Set from DS1 is also the best of the bunch, excellent fashion, good poise, excellent defences once upgraded, and doesn’t weigh that much.
That said, on the European copy’s disc there’s a Black Knight
I almost never upgraded my armour sets in DS1 with the exception of the Elite Knight and Chester's Set -- what can I say, fashion trumps everything, lol -- that said, I never even saw the cover with the Black Knight! I've seen pictures of the art but had no idea it actually functioned as the cover for the game.. I was only familiar with the Oscar covers (both the original and 2018 remaster) and the Artorias one
I like this kind of video, and you’ve been downplaying yourself by saying it took you too long, I couldn’t imagine how long it’d take me to do the same thing
Thank you for your nice words, though honestly, I'm confident you'd be able to do it in the same time, or maybe even faster!
Can't believe you didn't include Sekiro
Sekiro's closet was so massive I couldn't fit all the clothing and armor he has in this vid
Jokes aside I have plans for Sekiro too in the near future
I would argue the Faraam armor is actually pretty realistic for a fantasy setting and very practical. Padded armor (trousers and a surcoat) with a steel breastplate and gauntlets over top them and helmet is decent defense while not being too cumbersome for traveling.
I assumed the pants would provide too little defense and the chest armour would be too uncomfortable to wear but I guess I didn't think it through enough -- my bad on that!!
@@fermyonds Everyone have their own thoughts on what is “realistic” in video games. Sure there are some actual armor experts who done videos breaking down the authenticity of armor in video games cause I do not claim to be an expert at all on the subject. Heck for all I know those could just be regular pants and not padded. Breastplate yeah would be uncomfortable at times but to be fair it beats having a sword (or what ever monster appendage) rammed through your chest.
Same with the regular knight set from 3/ring
Props to koduko by Alex roe. Real good shit there
His covers are a work of art. Love his work
(if you're really good at it) i guess you could get the Ruptured Crysral Tear and perform the Lyndell elevator skip to get faster to Morgot. The overall Time should be shorter
I never did the Elevator Skip but I guess I'll have to try this method sometime!
Such a based video idea.
I hope you enjoyed it x)
@@fermyonds ya, it was fire :))
I'm not exactly sure, but i'm 90% sure that the firelink armor can be purchesed after putting the lords' ashes in the thrones without killing the lord of cinder, i might check it later
I didn't know this! I'll have to try it out soon :)
I haven't watched the video yet but I predict either ds1 or bloodborne have the fastest title Chara drip available. I think bloodborne because you literally don't even have to kill a boss or do a tutorial first, I could probably load up a new game and grab it in under 5 minutes now that I think about it.
Good guess! Its insane how fast you end up getting it in those games
Fallen Knight Set is the official armor of the Ashen One
Change my mind
I feel like almost every single person playing DS3 ends up with the Fallen Knight set and the Irythill Sword on their first playthrough so you're prolly right about it
That said, man it brings a tear to my eye seeing Jaller! He was my favourite Toa, what a throwback
@@fermyonds there's this weird connection between Bionicle and Dark Souls, in which Soul of Cinder appears to be a Toa in some way or another
Also based. Jaller is the best Toa 🗿
Just because it’s the most used armour doesn’t make it the official
@@LeGabrielMan I don't said so because is the most used, but instead because is the best armor and is better related to the concept of the Unkindled than the others
Imagine doing this challenge and having to pick up armor sets from the alt cover arts
Won't have to imagine it for long since I plan on doing that at some point! B)
@@fermyonds then i wish you luck.
This is content!
I hope you enjoyed it! x)
Hey thats my Elite Knight build. Vanilla, i know, but you dont need to be fancy to have fun. Sonetimes you just have to stick to old reliable.
Don't need to fix what's not broken, right? Me love some Elite Knight
5:49 It's literally the most pragmatic cannon armor next to the Demon Souls armor in terms of protection and practicality. Elite knight would be a nightmare to actually maneuver in, Vykes is literally melted by the three fingers and would face great mobility problems.
I think you bring up a good point -- I'm just not entirely sure if the leggings provide enough protection and the breastplate (at least to my untrained eye) seems like it'd be incredibly uncomfortable to wear/move in, but I'm probably incredibly wrong about this, in which case, my bad x)
@@fermyonds The breast plate in reality wouldn't be bad at all, it's profile may bring off that look of being uncomfortable. The leggings are the weakest point of the armor set and I wish FromSoft added hard black leather for knee and shin protection.
Thank you to always answer the question I never asked myself but needed an answer
Hell yeah dude -- hope you enjoyed it!!
@@fermyonds every time I enjoy your videos
If you are going by cover ant wouldn't you be going for the Forlorn set in ds2 since it is the cover art of scholar of the first sin you are playing?
I was thinking of getting that instead but I decided to stick to the Faraam for just how iconic it is -- that said, I could go for the Forlorn Set too!
I don't even have to watch to know DS3 will probably take the longest. Because you need to beat main game to get the Firelink Set and that can take a while.
Yup, you're right -- that said I know its possible to beat the game in under one hour, and I hope to accomplish that sometime!
Guts cosplay% next
I'll do that at some point as well!! Currently finishing up something with the Greatsword, though
Well is the guy in the cover the protagonist? Technically the main character of ds3 is the ashen one, and if i imagine him i think about the knight armour like ds1, the soul of cinder is kinda the antagonist , more or less, same with elden ring, if I think about the tarnished I think about the bloody wolf set, vyke is a character on his own
I get that perspective completely -- when looking at the Soul Of Cinder, I just assumed its the amalgamation of everyone who previously linked the flame (including our character from the previous games) hence why I consider it to be the "protagonist" -- it is only defending the flame, after all
Regarding Vyke, he was the tarnished who got the closest to completing his journey -- hence why I looked at him as the protag, although I completely understand looking at them as the antagonists
@@fermyonds i understand now. But ti this logic also gwyn would be considered as the protagosint? As he was the first one who tried to link the flame?
very good point. I didn't think that far to be honest -- I guess I should've done something else for DS3 and maybe should've went for the Bloody Set too. That's my mistake
@@fermyonds bro it's okay i didn't mean to complain or anything, you did a great video but i just didn't understand your way to define someone as a protagonist
Oh I didn't take it as complaining, sorry if it came off like that! I'm very happy I get to engage in conversations like these because it helps broaden my perspective -- and thank you for your nice words!
I only like the helmet for the faraam armor
I get that -- I personally think its super stylish and I end up using it more than I'd want to admit x)
I thought the helmet looked different for demon souls
I heard there's apparently a different version of it after you beat the Vanguard Demon or so -- also, I believe if you're female, the whole set is different altogether
Does vyke on the poster have the fingerprint set, or is it still the pre-fingered knight armor? Because that makes a BIG time difference
It’s not the same armor, Vykes helmet is slightly different and his whole armor is a lot slimmer than the standard knight set. Not to mention his armor set has an entirely different color.
Run invalidated -- I never thought about this..... oops.
@@fermyonds yeah plus the raging wolf is more iconic for elden ring so uh probably should've just gone for that
@@Ahhhhh638Yeah. In a similar way, even though the Soul of Cinder is the one on the ds3 cover, the armor set that shows up in marketing for the protagonist is the knight set instead
@@Ahhhhh638It's not on the cover though which was this run's rules, while the armor set on the cover isn't technically available in the game it's still a variation of Vyke's set.
So it's still more correct to go for Vyke's set than Raging Wolf.
you said "A hoonter must hoont" wrong
I tried so hard, but I didn't get far. I wasn't happy with how I ended up saying it so I just did it my way but I do want to mimic Eileen's sentence one day
Speedrun the Sekiro tutorial to get your arm cut off
I do have some ideas for Sekiro in the near future!
The guts sword next?
Ideally, yes! :D that should be the next one but with a little twist
@@fermyonds you gon get the guts crossbow too?
Best Souls 2
Always best souls 2! Fun times for sure
damn, i guessed ds3 would be last
I think I could maybe get a sub 2 hour run if I tried hard enough -- I saw some speedrunners getting it done in 40 minutes, it's insane what some people can do!
How come you didn't do one for sekiro. I'm sure it would have taken some time but still
I sadly didn't have time to boot up the game.
Jokes aside I usually don't include Sekiro but I do have plans for it soon enough!
16:16 what happened to clive XD
I'm so happy someone took a notice of the name! I remember I made that character when I was playing the XVI DLC for the first time. Good memories
? Wheres jhon darksoul?
He couldn't come, he's busy with Jason Bloodborne :(
dark souls 3 players be like:
No big deal we'll play through the entire game as many times as necessary
Why no Sekiro?
At the time I didn't want to include it considering that, well, you start off with the advertised appearance x) but I think I should have given it at least a minute or two of mention
Sony still being silent on Fromsoft about buying the IP might be the most telling thing as to how they treat them.
I just hope that sooner or later Bloodborne will be free for all of us :( at the very least that'd be nice
you talk like Shiva of the East
More like Shiva the Deceased!
Jokes aside, I've been trying to work on my English speaking -- I knooow it can be very unpleasant to listen to
@@fermyondshey man I really like your voice, don’t be too hard on yourself, your English is still super solid :)
Thank you! Means a lot to me x)
@@fermyonds don't sweat it
Dude, I'm the 666th view. I can't believe it. Rad.
Reading this made me want to listen to Iron Maiden.. Sick.
You're right DS2 is my favorite
One of us! One of us!
