Three boss fights all in one video.

I'm the first player ever to die to Pinwheel.

If I ever get the game I'm sure I'll die to him too. Probably more than once, even. Don't feel too bad.

Man, the Firesage fight is a whole lot easier if you don't lock on. That way you can easily sprint behind him and out of range when he uses his AoE. And his ass is so fat that it's not like you can miss if you aren't locked on.

Like, if everyone I've heard complain about Firesage being hard was locked onto him the entire fight, that would make a lot of sense. Otherwise I still don't get what people find so hard about him because I've never had a problem against him.

I made him fight without pants.

Locking on has nothing to do with it. I really only had a problem first time I fought him. This time I found the fight pretty easy, I expected it to go worse, though. With an int build using magic (my second character) he's even easier. I have this feeling that the 1.5 patch may have fixed his AI a bit, to prevent him from spamming his AOE attack, because that's what got me on my first playthrough several times, back then I felt the fight hinged more on luck than skill. Either that, or I've just become significantly better since then.

Not even getting rid of all my armor justifies dying to Pinwheel. Especially not after killing three bosses without dying once. I'm sure you won't die to him, he's practically a normal enemy, but with a boss' life bar.

MSperoni · 05-06-2012, 11:11 PM

Pinwheel gave me more trouble than he probably should have. I think what screwed me up was I went into the fight already knowing he was easy, so I was like "whatevs!" and then was caught off guard a lot. I didn't die against him though.

This is a nice stream! The audio is very good. Looks like I have a new batch of LPs to watch while working, yaay

Glad you like the audio even though I use the mic of the cheapest webcam I could find on amazon for my voice, and an old capture device I didn't know still worked that I had lying around somewhere for the game audio (and video).

I'm gonna start streaming again in 1 hour and 45 minutes. 21:00 my time (GMT+1)

10-1 Tomb of Giants
This went more smoothly than I expected.

10-2 Dark Sun Gwyndolyn
Yeah, that ass got me last time, not this time, though.

10-3 Lost Izalith
The floor is lava.

10-4 Bed of Chaos
FUCK YOU BED OF CHAOS!!!!1

Next time: One of my favorite areas in Dark Souls. The Duke's Archives. And possibly: Gwyn.

Been watching your streams most of the day today while working. I started with the first one and got all the way to the tenth video. They make me want to play Dark Souls again

EDIT: Actually now that I think about it I think I started with the second one for some reason...I should probably go watch the first one.

A Zarkin' Frood · 05-08-2012, 07:01 AM

I'm glad someone enjoys it enough to listen to it all day, and it makes them want to play the game. That's what an LP is supposed to do, after all.

I've been uploading the videos to my secondary youtube account because I don't know if livestream has a limit on the backlog I can keep. I do not want to erase shame from the internet. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?lis...ature=view_all
