First
Gotta salute the commentator... he's done a good job
hes the first commentator ive heard compliment the runner at GDQ.
grimelios did some amazing guacamelee runs two years ago.
yeah no joke, that guy was amazing! ive been watching ds speedruns a lot, but that guy really explained the shit out of the run and mentioned stuff ive never understood before
Seriously great duo with great chemistry. They work well together
HarrazOtame hell yeah and praising the runner for doing a good job, MVP
Both the commentator and the runner were amazing. What a team!
Also The donations reader, i really liked him!
Even as a veteran of the game, this was incredibly informative. Both the run and the commentary were perfectly planned. Absolute fire.
This is the most formal and professional speedrun I've ever seen
Cogombre i know right? Honestly some great commentary and explanations about the entire route and all the tricks. Let alone the great run itself.
regole is the goat
Regole in Italian means rules 😏
You can tell how the commentator planned it out to get as much info packed in there, 100% appreciated!
Agreed.
He did an amazing job of explaining all the intricacies of the run. Even as someone played this game for 5000+ hours and did some speedrunning himself, this was fascinating to watch.I've never seen this route before.
I keep trying to find the right sport to compare this run to.... i think a rally car race where there's a driver and a navigator piloting through the map. so impressive.
The best commentator by far.
Agreed
Yea he was he great
He must be a great player :)
Turns out he was well educated on ds1
No question. Shows how just a little planning can have a big pay off.
They could do a dark souls run in every gdq and i would watch all of them
true words
yah
Souls Block at SGDQ 2020? Please?
The DS1 speedruns are ever evolving, and new strats are being found to this day. The last speedrun of this game that i watched didn't have like half of these strats, and was almost 10 mins slower. It's very interesting seeing how these runs evolve.
same for ocarina of time. These two games are extremely watchable for speedruns
36 minutes. That is the time it took me to create my character.
That's the total time of all the attempts I took to kill the Asylum Demon with the broken straightsword hilt to get a mediocre strength weapon
And the character looked shitty anyways because this is dark souls
That’s the total time It took me to break my controller and say fuck this game
Thats the time it took me to summon the courage to play this game
Both player and commentator were on it. Clearly very well-rehearsed. Nice job!
Commentator clearly practiced his run down & it shows. Most commentators end up being annoying imo, but this guy nailed how it should be done. Some good comedy can be nice, but an informative breakdown really helps you appreciate what you're seeing & I think the vast majority of the comments here speak to that.
It is evident that both the runner and the commentator put a lot of effort in preparing for this run, which in turn seems very respectful to the event and the cause. Polite, professional, entertaining and informative.
This is what I miss from GDQ, a great run and a knowledgeable commentator. It really felt like they were bolth doing the run. Great chemistry
Do you know of another great duo like this?
@@_Blonca Check out Byte Doom 2016 GDQ
this commentary is seriously great, i'm towards the end of my first time running through dark souls and I feel like i'm learning so much random stuff about the game
To each their own but I think spoiling yourself the game takes quite a bit of the fun out of it.
Welcome to the club bro
Zerofodão Couldn’t agree more.
These guys look like they wrote their PhD thesis on Dark Souls
On god
Damn that commentator did a fantastic job.
Also great runner, they fit together really well.
Very nice run, and shout-out to the Quintessential Gamer, Lawrence Sontag.
I thought it was him!
Ha, was that actually him? I tilted my head when I heard the name.
I miss him so much. He added such a cool vibe to Funhaus vids.
The anime dad himself!
Siegmeyer of Catarina: This gate is closed and I must get past it. Hmm, what to do?
Chosen Undead: Have you tried looking down?
Commentator is amazing, so many info that needs to be delivered in so little time, and he nails it
Dude the runner didn't even mention it was his birthday. He literally wouldn't have said anything if not by that donation. Legend. Super humble guy.
I’ve never played, nor really been interested in, Dark Souls. But damn this was a fun run to watch. And the commentator really made it accessible to people like me with his extremely in depth yet concise commentary. One of the few AGDQ speed runs I’ve had my eyes glued to from start to finish.
Play it, and many videogames will be boring and too easy for you. Better to stay away.
@@leeham6230 I haven't beat DS1, but I've beat DS3, Bloodborne and Sekiro, and I think this has an element of truth towards it. I think if you played other non souls games of this genre, then possibly. But anything else? Na.
It's sincerely a great game, all claims of difficulty aside.
There are ways to beat everything, it isn't impossible at all. Use your head.
Aw Lawrence! What an amazing donation ! Thats awesome dude!
When ?
@@ahmedboukhalfa288 11:57 Makes me wonder was it really Sir Larr himself :O
Doctor Dick I would definitely say it’s him!
@@yledoos Pretty unique name, generous streaming community is mentioned. I would say the chances are very, *very* high.
What a great commentary.
Probably one of the best couch commentators.
He knows that balancing explanation and just watching the run is important. Its also awesome he knew how many donations to read as well! Amazing.
I must have like 2000 hours total in DS1 and that commentary was still very entertaining. Props to that man
I'm just curious what do you do to have so many hours on DS1? I felt like I've played it forever and I've only played it for 200 hours. Do you just replay it in different builds or speedrun it?
@@james87367 I have 1.2k in DS3 and most of it was just making all kinds of builds since there's so much variety. If you're into PvP you can also easily sink thousands of hours in it.
Lawrence donated.
I was trying to figure out if that was him with the 4k.
When ?
@@ahmedboukhalfa288 12:00
One of the best games to see speedruns of.
26:20 "it saves one second to kill her."
That's cruel xD
Lasmiranda Dennsivillia I feel like that was a good bit that just went over a lot of people’s heads
This is the most professional speedrun I've ever seen. Holy shit what a performance. The commentator is incredible.
Fantastic run.
perfect commentators, amazing run.
best couch
Lawerence saved some money at Funhaus so that he can throw it at GDQ, way to go (:
Stoked to see Lawrence making such a big donation, big love for him.
this is the best commentary on a run I’ve ever seen, beautiful run 10/10
I like to imagine that the game knows who is playing it, and when one of these runners starts move-swapping all the bosses just sigh like "not this shit again"
That synergy though. This was badass to watch, and that donation too.
12:01 Wait, is that Lawrence Sonntag, the quintessential gamer?
I caught that too!
Came looking for this comment after I heard the donation.
Lawdog
Sir Lar
Yessir!
:)
Great run and great comentary!
You're a beast, well done brother! Cheers to that great commentator too.
this is amazing! this is how it should be done... like a professional. mad respect
Both of these guys were really good to watch and listen. I could easily watch this again.
This run is Top Tier. Excellent commentary on both parts. I learned stuff I never knew about Dark Souls.
One of the best. Great job!
i dont know why, but at all gdq's Dark souls runs are pretty good
This is next level commentary and run! Need more combinations like these two gents.
One of the best GDQ runs I have seen and one of the best runner/couch combos. Well prepared and well-executed by both. This was awesome!
incredible run - so informative and well-paced, rehearsed but still natural, and with a wonderful dry sense of humor. there's even a dash of well-earned sappy sweetness at the end. keep bringing these guys back to gdq!!
The explanations are well appreciated. Good run!
AGDQ: starts a Dark Souls speed run.
The Npcs: why do I hear boss music?
Great run and fantastic and informative commentary, the explanations of all the small tricks was great.
This is one of my favorite GDQ runs, the combined excellent commentary and gameplay work to make a great experience
Absolutely great commentary, great run! One of my favorite games of all time.
The way he takes down the Anor Londo's archer (at 14:00) is incredibly satisfactory.
One of the most professional/ informative speed runs I’ve seen... Absolutely fantastic lads!
Aw, totally didn’t come into this expecting to hear a donation from Lawrence!
What a fantastic run & commentary. Great job guys, and thanks for all you do for the souls/speedrunning community.
Absolutely the best run and commentary duo I’ve seen on GDQ
I would absolutely watch this duo every GDQ and never get bored. Great job, you two!
I spent 30 hrs to reach Londo... he needed 10 minutes exactly
Lol I never made it
ur not counting the thousands of hours it took him to retry it until he could make that time
DuckieMcduck good point lol
I mean it took him hundreds or thousands of hours to get to a point where he could reach Londo in 10 minutes
Yea he makes it look so incredibly easy.
The quintessential gamer making an appearance
Mark O'Neill i’m glad I’m not the only One Who noticed ;)
what a crossover!
This maybe the best speedrun/commentary I’ve ever seen
Praise the run! It's always fun watching someone demolish Dark Souls. Flawless commentary & execution!
Solid run! Excellent explanation of everything going on, and great added comments from the runner regarding what is difficult and what is easy to do. Great inspiration for future runners!
This is one of the best, if not the best DS 1 run that i've ever seen when it comes to commentary, both the runner and the commentator were stellar! love it
It took me longer to pass the archers of anor londo then it took him to beat the game
Truly a dynamic duo. Incredible to listen to and watch. You guys are awesome.
This is incredible team work guys! Seriously LOVED IT!! Such a great job!
Great run & excellent commentary as well!
Very high quality run and commentary!
Amazing runner and excellent commentary, thank you very much!
This was the best commentary and run I've watched for Dark Souls 1 as of yet!
Phenomenal run and commentary. Great job guys!
An excellent run and I thoroughly enjoyed the commentary.
That was some amazing commentary. He explained everything very well, which is great because it's always interesting to hear how all the tricks work.
This is such a good run and an especially amazing couch! Dude was to the point accurate and articulate, as well as the two of them have great chemistry.
Commentary is amazing. Extremely impressive run. Nice!
The gameplay caught me,beautifully done!
The commentary hooked me!
I dig the guys in depth explanation on the couch, of course along with the god tier runner.
Amazing stuff!
Wow!
Amazing gameplay and commentary. One of the best runs i've ever seen!
Charming runner, insightful and well-paced commentary - great run!
Grimelios did a fantastic job explaining everything very quickly and accurately you can tell he practiced and it really payed off. Awesome run and awesome commentary
Awesome run. This man really is one of the greats.
Great run and incredible commentary. That was the best way I've ever heard the wrong warp explained. This is now my favorite DS1 GDQ run by far. Great job boys
I LOVE when runners and their couch comes prepared, and professional like these two guys. Flawless, informative, and eloquent commentary, and great runner awareness outside of the game. What a class act :D
This was a really enjoyable watch, props to the commentator for helping us understand whats going on.
And of course, props to the runner! This wa amazing
These two guys are great! One awesome speedrunner and backed up by an awesome commentator. Great job guys!
The Runner and the guy on the couch well done hope you guys do more runs together well explains and entertaining Thanks for your good work!
Major props to this video for getting me into GDQ and speedrunning in general!
you guys are awesome
this run is awesome
the commentary (as others have mentioned) and the run itself are legendary, what an excellent video!!
Oh man, what a team ! Both commentator and the speedrunner were fantastic ! Even if Regole had to be super focused, he still gave some tips or info. You can feel that Grimelios had prepared this commentary, it's amazing and keeps us super entertained with lots of little infos !
This was fascinating to watch and entirely understandable because of the commentary!
Never watched speedruns or played Dark Souls, but these guys i can watch all day
One of the best commentaries and runs
Awesome run and also i've never seen it done like that. That was very nice thanks a lot !
this is the first speed run i watch and this is really impressive
this is a really good video. the player and the commentator really fun to watch and listen
Great run and great commentary!
Seriously amazing commentating. Seen tonnes of speedruns but this excelled.
