Since its release at the end of February my girlfriend and I have had a hard time putting Elden Ring down. Although it was one of the more frustrating FromSoft games she's played to date, she was determined to prove that she could handle everything they had to throw at her. This video wasn't just difficult to make because of the game's difficulty, we had a hard drive failure right in the middle of the project which lead to a lot of heartache and lost footage. Even still, we're happy to finally have a Made My Girlfriend Play Elden Ring video for you all, and hopefully you enjoy. Praise the sun!

"You are maidenless"
Girl: "IM THE MAIDEN"
Yeah, kinda weird how the game just simply expects Lesbian that way.
@@msarilyn7677 it doesnt matter
@@msarilyn7677 but here's the thing
in this context, maiden isn't used in a romantic context. He means finger maiden, women under the Two Fingers who serve to guide and care for tarnished
@@s4ty-s4t Kinda getting the vibe he didn't play the game
@@knavenformed9436 to be fair the game's story is confusing.
So her tinfoil hat theory is actually correct. Many enemies and bosses are coded to react when you cast a spell or drink a health pot. There are other videos that show enemies dodge roll spamming when you cast spells, even when they aren’t aimed at them. The godskin enemies are basically hard coded to throw fire at you when you try to heal.
It’s called input reading and many enemies and bosses just start rolling the moment you knock and arrow or start casting a spell
Thank explains so much hahaha, now I know why the godskinned duo was so miserable xD
This mechanic got me pissed when I was fighting margit, lol. I knew this was a thing since I played sekiro, but I really didn't expect my first boss to brutally punish me for healing.
I had a time with the golden knight boy in jail where I tested to see if he'd do his lunging thrust if I drank, even if I was considerably outside the attack's range.
It is coded that way.
@@BoyMetGirl you know what's misrable my relationships barley lasted a 2 or even a month I'm left in the dust
Maybe im just afraid of being happy and im 19
Im looking for a beautiful smart nerdy creative artist and who can cook and is thick
If i have to waste half of my golden years just floating like a plastic bag so be it
Im 19 and i should have been going to visit Washington with her and she can teach me how to cook
When i reflect is not to give a shit what people think there just jealous
And i could have beautiful children
Communication is key, love doesn't care if you're broke
If she's okay with you playing video games so be it
And also she sketches dresses
And wants to be a lawyer
If i made that last i could have had my own personal lawyer girlfriend
I love the fact that her character has this beautiful dress but she welds a pizza cutter as a weapon
*arknights has entered the chat*
Shit reminds me of the movie Sucker Punch.
do you know what armor is this? not sure if i saw this before haha i keep selling armors except the one i got from npc's and rune holders
@@torii_101 It's the deathbed dress that you find at the Lower Capital Church grace in the Royal Capital
Average character in elden ring, just this sicko beating you up with someone's spine while wearing a cute dress
Girlfriend sounds like the sort of person who chose her Pokémon based upon how round they are and then proceed to beat the game with them, now uses the same logic for every single game. They are absolutely the best players to help because they absolutely resist the obsessive need to min-max and just have fun while still being willing to learn things that don't sacrifice that.
Yeah I wish my headspace was still like that (I love my boy aggron and I don’t care how much they break his knees I’ll love him to death)
The games are kind of design for that tho. Still I think she's the kind of person that would pic Chicorita
@@DanielPereira-ey9ntthat's some foreshadowing right there.
“This is the way…”
…my wife plays.
"is that Kos?..... Or some say Kosm"
Your maiden has ascended
Ain't gone lie. That kinda got me too
A true Hunter at heart.
I’m totally vibing with her whole “Genocidal Maniac disguised as an Innocent Maiden” look, very chic and elegant yet also badass and colorful, like her.
Gives off Lady Macbeth vibes
literally tarnished eater Anastasia
iirc that's Anastasia's whole deal! (That one invader that was Elden Ring's equivalent of Maneater Mildred)
9:20 She is actually correct, it's called Imput Reading, where the enemy AI reacts to your Input. It has been in the game since Dark Souls 2, maybe even in Dark souls 1. There is 2 major forms of this. Heal Catching, where they will do an animation faster than your animation to heal and punish you for trying to heal. They punish you more for this in Elden Ring, cause they time it to hit AFTER you drink the flask, so you lose your charge, AND more HP than before.
The other form that was sparse in the other games, but HEAVILY implimented not just in bosses but ALL, or nearly ALL enemies is Roll Catching. Where they time their attacks, and have attacks just long enough, where if you don't roll exactly when the game WANTS you to roll, the enemy will catch and kill you out of the roll.
"Filthy casuals in your area"
"I love a boy with poise"
😂😂
That spot where she dodged all of the elden beasts attacks in quick succession is legitimately impressive.
Theres trial and error good and gifted good and shes both
It's super endearing to hear her jokes! "Love me a boy with poise" "Filthy casuals in your area" "He looks like he's been backstabbed before" She's so funny!
you two would do great to do a collab with Girlfriend Reviews - love to see you play a 4 player game togetehr
"Love me a boy with poise" got me good :D
"Pizza pizza... bitch" gets me every time
“After taking your bridge out of the oven, wait 45 minutes before stepping on it.”
10:53
That "Bridge in the oven" joke was legit excellent. You guys should do a podcast haha
I appreciate Girlfriend's dedication to fashion in these games. That outfit at the end when she slayed the god, was *chefs kiss*
can't slay if you don't _slay!_
I keep thinking this is a big channel. Never give up on this production quality! Great channel
Thank you, it means so much to us! :)
Lol word i was shook when i saw they only have 2k subs
For real, the quality of everything, the well written script. Then you look at 2k subscribers when others gets millions being dicks
Yeah word i just saw the subscriber count.
Same!!! It's good production. SUBBED!
By the way, you have my upmost respect for persisting the time consuming task of producing the subtitles every video. It's deeply appreciated.
Seconded! Thank you for adding these excellent subtitles, the quality of this channel continues to impress.
12:54
MAN this invader earned my respect
Not only did he bow to his intended opponent .
BUT HE ALSO BOWED TI THE ONE WHO ENGAGED IN TRUE MAIDENLESS BEHAVIOR TRYING TO KILL HIM OUTTA NOWERE
Thank you I was glad he won
He was using vyke warspear, he is extremely maidenless.
In invasions all goes. Duels are different
''How can i be maidenless if im my own maiden''...now thats a 300 IQ move.
That moment when y’all were invaded and joked “me and my gf saw you from across the room, we heard you liked strength builds” as both of you beat the tar out of him in synchronized combat was like the cutest gaming couple moment ever! 😆 so funny!
I had to reply that a couple times lol
she killed all the bosses with that weapon and no summons? wow, big respect!
The weapon is not bad , bleed is pretty broken and the weapon does a lot of poise damage too
The wheel's art is literally bleed building v100
Regardless of what everyone's said in the replies, that's still no meager feat. I mean I beat my first run (which I started on launch day, so arcane scaling wasn't a thing on a lot of them) with my samurai's initial equipment, which turned out to be perfect for the bleed build I wanted to run anyway.
@@TFGRhinehart wait, you didn't change any equipment? At all?
the pizza cutter has been good since Bloodborne
"She was convinced that some of the bosses are just programmed to wait until you sip a flask and then attack" in a way, all of them are. All bosses and most enemies have one or two attacks they're programmed to use if they're idle whenever you sip. In all Souls games, too.
I’m not quite sure why people rag on it, I mean what do players do the moment they see a hollow stopping to chug a flask?
@@nickoliekeyov746 Most of them don't rag specifically on the reaction, but on the fact that it's done through input-reading. AKA the enemy AI knowing which button you pressed instead of reacting to the animation itself. And honestly I'm not sure why people rag on input reading either, it gives the AI a fighting chance and there are ways to circumvent it.
9:11 she's actually right on this, the enemies do have input reading coded in. You can really see this on Malenia when using a slow moving projectile like Ranni's Dark Moon. She'll dodge on the input of the spell, not the impact of it, *every single time*
Most enemies, really. They aren’t really coded to handle a tracking projectile with a travel time longer than half a second
This girl is a fucking treasure. Never lose her lol.
The few snippets of her gameplay are pure awesomeness in terms of energy lmao. Shes definitely playing the game right
there's no such things as playing it right
@@kodiak7463 there is if you're enjoying.
And not being a Dex Scrub.
He sure is a lucky guy.
@@General_C big long nagakiba go brrrr tho, but I only do pve because I know how many people are str master race
Imagine simping for another man's girl. Have some shame
"Filthy casuals in your area."
I'm deceased! 😂💀
That right there, she's brilliant.
her getting exited when someone prises the message and using the pizza cutter is hilarious XD
Gotta love that around 0:30 the guy is like, aight bet lets go. And the girl is customizing her character. Reminds me of a friend who also gets stuck in character customization for literal hours.
Shes right about the AI of enemies. I had to also reprogram myself to literally bait their attacks by mine knowing they react whenever i try to hit. Malenia would walk around, i hit air, she reacts instantly. I knew there and then what i had to expect. Horror lol
No. You're incorrect. You experienced...
*TRUE* horror!
Wait a goshdarned minute! Your girlfriend made it all the way to Volcano Manor and got the Ghiza Wheel BEFORE killing Margit?? She might be more hardcore than I am!
8:18 This line had me reeling lol
it’s so cool to compare how you two tackled the game so differently. Loved this video!
So "I wanted to ride horses together D:" might be the cutest thing I've heard this week. But I have a question: Did you guys go looking for any of the really infamously difficult optional bosses? And which did you kill?
I found a particularly difficult life stealing one, if that's the one you're asking about. I thought I was pretty thorough in my first playthrough, but I looked up a boss ranking and realized I missed like half the bosses. The game is just so big! My girlfriend did a lot of exploring, but ended up focusing on the main path once she found the capital. Hope this answers your question! And thank you for all your comments, they always make us smile!
@@BoyMetGirl ah yes malenia, the hitler of dsrksouls
@@amenberk1157 you can cheese her with mimic tear and spamming the Morgott cursed sword weapon art effectively stunlocking her forever.
@@BoyMetGirl Oh yes, that was the one I was curious about. Did you beat her? Also, happy to make you guys smile!
@@lordnmaster2 It took me 3 days!! That was probably one of the hardest fights in the souls series for me haha
9:20 enemies can input read, so she's right. Godskin and Dragon Sentinel throw fire at you when you use a toolbelt item.
Just found this channel. If you don't already know there's a mod called Seamless Co-op that pretty much fixes all of the problems the base game's co-op has. Would love to see you two do that together, since having two people makes some things easier and other things more difficult. Cherry on top, everyone can ride horses. It also allows 4 people to play together and if the host dies you don't get sent back they just respawn. So if you want more people, I'd be up for joining because addicted isn't even a strong enough term for my feelings towards Elden Ring.
I feel like you not waiting for her to be done making her character is like starting a foot race before the count down begins
My impatience got the better of me haha, I already waited months.... two more hours was a tall order xD
Dude she's absolutely right about them waiting for you to flask, especially. Draconic the sentinel and the godskin boys both do this. You got to bait it, roll, then flask
So my boyfriend and I have been gamers since we were both little (love me my sly cooper) but his sister has never been into games mostly because they make her motion sick, but I was inspired by your videos to make her play breath of the wild and she really loves it and it’s so fun watching her learn and explore a game I’m an expert at. It gives me a new perspective on it
Found this channel randomly but loving the content. The humor your girlfriend displays while playing is one of my favorite parts and I'd totally watch either of you stream for the humor involved
Enemies do actually do a specific attack most of the time when you attempt to sip, like when godskins throw fire ball or when the knights do long reach stab to catch you.
God the crucible knights. Fuck the crucible knights. I swear their greatswords have the same phantom range as lothric knight ss in ds3. Favorite enemies to fight. Such a fun challenge
God damn, this is one of the best vids I have seen so far on Elden Ring! Girlfriend is super adorable and hillarious, and your commentary on everything makes it so much better! Keep pumping out more content for sure, you earned yourself a subscriber.
Thank you :)
@@BoyMetGirl Would 100% love to see how she takes on invasions/invading other people alone, I feel like that would be a hillarious sight to behold with her commentary on everything
@@BoyMetGirl dude seriously! You’ll one day have 100k plus with this type of content! Speaking of which, subbed!
Whats funny is that she did a no armor pizza wheel run with no spirit summons on her first try
I really love your guys' videos, it's always a pleasant experience to watch them after a long day. This video single-handedly made me buy Elden Ring, and it's now one of my favorites. Keep up the good work!
"for her the second best attempt is always the first one" Not just for her xD That's a surprisingly common trait.
"she was convinced that some of the bosses are just programmed to wait until the moment you sip a flask to attack you" And she's correct. Easy to see with the Godskin apostle because the reaction is instantaneous.
yeah that's actually quite obvious, I normally waited out a bit before healing (to wait for the moment when enemy just did an attack that happen to not reach me), but whenever I heal, they start charging at me or range attack, immediately
Crucible knights do it too. Every time you try to heal they always do their long range attack.
Also with Margit phase 2. The instant you flask, he throws the daggers at you.
@@leesasuki When a boss is programmed to attack flask use, I end up using an attack opening for a flask instead. It makes the fight slower, it allows for completely safe flask use.
Also Genichiro in Sekiro used to do that. In his lightining phase he does the jump attack when you heal. I even ended up using it to kill him faster when I was 300 hours into the game ahahah
9:12
WHAAT?! This has been an well known fact since DaS1, the enemies 10000% read your flask (or item rather) input to punish you, is not a tin foil hat theory. Exploiting that is what makes possible an ups all Gwyn run in DaS1.
9:25 She's right though, I'm a programmer. Granted I dont mod souls games or elden ring and have no knownledge of its code but I'm about 88% sure that's exactly what they do. And looking at other comments I'm now 100% sure lol.
Also, that dragonic tree sentinel firebreath is completely bull
Crap
She's freaking good at this game.
Girl's commentary is also hilarious. I'd love to see you two stream.
9:11 best part about it is to at some bosses are literally programmed to rush you when you are sipping a flask so she isn’t wrong
Its not even the first fromsoft game to do it either so that fact that it exists in this game doesnt surprise me
I keep watching this for all the 'Feel Good' feels. Love these vids guys!!!
Just found these guys and I’m already hooked!
She just straight up looks like the better gamer between you two. As a programmer, I can tell you you don't need a degree to see that these enemies are input reading.
Agreed… him talking himself up in the beginning of the video had me rolling my eyes, lol
I confirmed for myself enemies do infact input read when i kept shooting arrows to a lion that couldnt reach me and It allways dodged just when i started pulling the bow
A big reason why elden ring isnt a 10/10. Could argue a 9.9 but definitely not a 10.
Also according to someone who was testing this, they dont input read, they animation read. Which still the same level of bs.
@@ditchfood8047 Yup. the only difference is that they dont react to buffered inputs (is that what you call it?), like when you heal during a roll, they react to teh flask animation not your button press.
But i dont think its really an issue. It just means you have to think about when and where to heal. No different from an aggresive boss. Hell i find healing in malenias second phase more difficult then in her first phase despite her input reading in phase 1. But its way easier to play around then her insane aggrasion in phase 2
When she downed all of her remaining flasks, before the final phase… i burst out laughing so hard. I could hear the despair in her voice. GG
Side note, just found your channel. Excellent video to be introduced on. Keep it up!
One of my favourite videos on CZcams this. Great work guys.
Her laugh is contagious lol, I think I loved you two pvping together the most, great video, new sub.
9:10 Your GF wasn't wrong, they're programmed to do that. If you retreat quickly, they'll often predict if you're going to heal and will do some kind of thrust, jump or ranged attack to stop it. Not every strong foe does it but the two you showcased definitely do. You gotta outplay the bosses read on your moves.
Elden Ring's hype turns out to be real
btw 14:04 That moment is all I've waited for this video. Thanks for sharing your experience again!
It was quite the journey! Thanks for sticking with us along the way :)
“She was convinced that some of the bosses are programmed to wait until you sip a flask” she is correct, that is literally and exactly how the elden ring bosses are programmed
Absolutely loved this! Girlfriend has great energy and I'm so happy you both had fun
You guys are so damn adorable. Why this channel hasn't blown up is something I don't understand.
Because this channel is a carbon copy of Monty Zander and his SO.
I also respect the production value of this video and enjoyed it, but for blowing up on CZcams it needs its own identity.
This should not stop you guys from doing what brings you fun though.
Keep up the great work!
@@vicarludens I've seen Monty Zander and at least another one of "make my girlfriend play video games" channel, and to be honest I enjoy this one the most. The world should be big enough for several of this kind of channels to co-exist.
"Whoooooooo, fuck yeah"
THIS is what Elden Ring is all about.
That struggle against an enemy that's been a royal pain in the ass, and the elation and sense of achievement you feel when you finally defeat them 😊
Amazing video really enjoyed it surprised with the high quality edit and commentary keep up 🔥
I’m about three seconds into the video and just subscribed everything about this video seems tailored towards things I enjoy with the thumbnail artwork, that you’re playing elden ring/having her experience it and the katana zero ost to top it off I already know this is a channel im going to enjoy watching
OH MY GOD she is so funny. "After removing bridge from oven" ahahahhahahaha
Man the editing style is so chill but both of you are so funny! You two are so underrated.
Can't wait for your channel to blow cause these videos are amazing!
Kudos to you and the girlfriend! The way you and her compliment the gameplay is marvelous. You have a new subcriber from México 😃
I watch other girlfriend review channels and things like that but your content feels so fresh. Seriously underrated!
Ngl y'all deserve sooo much more recognition. I love your content. All your videos, perfection. Wishing yall the very best! Have fun guys
Thank you for the video! I've been waiting for this since your guys's first Dark Souls video! Absolutely love the way you tell the story of both of your experiences. What an epic adventure!😊
Glad you enjoyed it, and that we could share the journey with you! :)
This series is some of the best I've found on CZcams. You guys are really funny.
Also, I'm kind of amazed at seeing the pizza cutter at Margit in NG. I'm sure there's SOME way to get there early but dayum.
You guys are an awesome watch! Definitely gained another subscriber today.
The production value on this is absolutely amazing
Ok but she’s absolutely right about that hard programmed flask reaction thing - godskin apostle does it too
Im here cause the man i like is obsessed with elden ring and souls games in general, i just got the game and yall giving me hope fr 😭 luckily he’s been here to help me through it
This was so cute to see. I loved seeing both of yall play. I'll have this someday :) I know it. You both are so wholesome. Keep up the great work! 👍🏻
9:33 i mean, it is literally how they are programmed. There are times when bosses don't attack and if you try healing they will do something like this right away, thou they have moments where they will not do it and they are quite obvious.
Loved it. These videos are gems, especially as this is both a date-night and a made play.
Keep it up, and if you ever organize events in Elden Ring with your viewers, like fight clubs, let us know
Thank you! That sounds hilarious, we hadn't even thought of doing something like that! xD
"My girlfriend doesn't play these games like we do ... For her, the second best attempt is always the first one."
I'm pretty sure this is actually the usual experience for most of us haha.
Just stumbled upon your channel, and I wanted to say this is so amazingly wholesome and I love how you much fun you both have together. I really thought when I looked at your subs it would be in the hundreds. You deserve so much more with the quality of content you give to us. Earned my sub and I hope you continue to make amazing videos!!
I hope you guys keep this channel up, you've quickly become one of my favorites. It's just a matter of time and minor luck and I'm sure you'll blow up. :)
My girlfriend and I love watching these together!
That's awesome! We always hoped other couples would find our videos! :D
Ikr
@@BoyMetGirl oww.... That hurt xDD
@@chiangmei1265 This channel's audience seems to be 20% couples and 80% single gamers.
I love that you played this on date night. I miss doing dungeon crawls with my partner (normally the only rpg option for 2 players). Noodling around like you guys would be a way more fun version of that.
How did I only just find this channel? You guys are awesome ❤️ here’s hoping it’s not just me and you’re getting a massive algorithm boost because your videos deserve to be seen ☺️ off to binge them now!
this video is excellent. And your maiden is absolutely adorable and hilarious! Glad you enjoyed the game as much as me and my boyfriend do! :D
This is a very fun vid! The fact that your girlfriend asked ''Is that Kos?'' made me just ''yep imma sub and drop a like''
I gotta say I was super impressed with her first time dodging the elden beast sword swing. Also this is a hard game. Your girlfriend is a gamer.
Incredible video! I am watching my fiance play Elden ring now since she has watched me play through 500hrs of it. It truly is a blast. Keep up the amazing videos.
Honestly, your girlfriend is so funny... What she said about "a man with poise" and "or some say... Kosm" had me in stitches! Great video :D
15:10 So.she got it. Like she is one of the few people I'm listening expresing what probably they went with this boss. People calling it unfair, bad designed, that didn't make sense. She got it!
The commitment to blood borne she has while playing Elden Ring to go so far as to to say "Is that Kos?" on the first glance of the Elden Beast is Beautiful.
Your videos are honestly 10/10, its so cool to see how she's gone from you forcing her into playing ds1 up to taurus demon and now she beat elden ring right through. I'll keep trying to convert my girl to a souls enjoyer but i dont have much hope lol.
I loved seeing her using "Ghiza's Wheel"! I got that thing a while ago but I only just noticed that it has a huge bleed affinity. I've been debating whether to level it up but now, I definitely will! Thanks!
Wearing the death maiden dress in final boss fight is impressive. That thing has got zero protection stats
Your girlfriend handles the Calid dogs better than 90% of the player base. Props.
caelid lmfao you saw it in the game like 20 times
crashed into this channel by accident, really cool video, subscribed instantly.
You guys are awesome 👌 you remind me of my husband and I- we've been gaming together for over 20 years and now we play Valheim and knockout city with our 7 year old ❤️
Your girlfriends is way better at the game than I expected from the video title and I love the jokes.
Nice video!
9:21 that is the case tho. The boss queues animations when you charge something in a random order, depending on how large the pool of attacks is. This has been known for a while. Plus queuing the charge of an attack is very common too.
Love ur channel guys wish u all the best

Awesome channel there and from one CZcamsr to another. Just keep grinding
Great content
I've come back to this video multiple times now, it's one of my favorite Elden Ring videos. Girl is so funny, the co-op section is delightful, the music choices are always fantastic and come in at the perfect time.
Would love to see a video of Girl exploring the character creators in various games and then rating them (I'm only mostly joking here)
your girl played as str build? she's got more balls than 50% of maidenless in lands between
This was a FUN video to watch! Amazing!
U guys are awesome! Great video . I love the fact u both worked so hard at beating this game, the beauty of elden ring is that in my opinion, fail, learn and grow . It's a life lesson! Work hard and u will succeed
You two are hilarious! And I love how her character has the dress for last fight she could care less about armor stats lol
she "could" care less? meaning she cares at least a little bit?
