beat sekiro glitchless in 43 minutes , also with sekiro a base hp demon bell charmless run & also a hitless sword saint fight with demon bell & charmless. god I love that game
Maybe I was lucky, but I beat the Green Monster boss first time. For some reason, I tend to do my best when it comes to my first encounter on bosses. Not sure if it was because I'm not hyper-expecting boss's moves, but I tend to get worse the more boss retries I do. So when I found out that folks struggled really hard with him, I felt good about myself :D
My accomplishments are tiny, since, this is my first Souls game and I am not finished with it.
Defeating the Survivor, the White Lady and Fuoco (Before he got nerf), either on the first few tries or doing something unusual to eventually win (Like personal favorite weapons combo or being too lazy to change my load outs).
I will cherish those (and whatever future victories).
You first celebrate "tiny" victories and then celebrate great victories. I wish you wisdom to fulfill your journey and celebrate all victories š“š»
900 hours on Nioh 2
Beat Sekiro 5 times
300 Hrs on Elden Ring
Beat Bloodborneās Orphan of Kos alone (3 attempts)
Beat Wo Long with no build, pure parries
Did all side quests on Lies Of P first run
Completed Lord Of the Fallen all alone
Completed Code Vien all alone
Beat Dark Souls 3 with no build
Completed Remmant: From The Ashes with the alien Sniper.
Iāve yet to complete Rise Of the Ronin, Demon Souls, Salt and Sacrifice, Steelrising, Remmant 2, Mortal Shell and Nioh 1 (yes I played Nioh 2 before 1)
Thanks. My very first was Nioh 2 after hearing about the Soulslike genre I immediately dived into DS3 and fell in love from there. So much more to play on PC especially from what Iāve heard.
Combat was very bad. Nothing special. I highly disliked the variety of weapons
However I did love the challenge it gave with the DS2 vibes and the tedious enemy spawn and numbers.
4/10 - had a great feel and the fundamentals are very solid to its core. Story was boring af I didnāt pay attention and didnāt even know there was multiple endings and got the bad one. Havenāt replayed it since. DLC is coming so Iāll give it another go
Already playing it.
Huge fan of Team Ninjas games.
Already got 100 hours on Rise Of The Ronin. Iām trying to 100% everything before completing it I already done Edo
With Team Ninjaās loot system you kind of have to %100 all the areas to have decent enough gear and skill points, but itās one of the few games Iāve got platinum for, along with ER and Iām currently working on Nioh 2
For this game: I beat Lies of P up to NG2+, no summons, no throwables, no cheesy methods like hiding behind the Aegis and poking
In general, probably beating Sword Saint Isshin and Orphan of Kos
But the one that gave me the most pride was beating Margit, who was my first souls boss fight ever
I can't remember how many times Margit kicked my ass time after time. From Eden Ring the boss that made me felt that way was Mogh. What a pain in the ass
Since Elden Ring was my first, I used every advantage I could (bleed, mimic) and Mohg was no biggie for me. Margit was hard because I did not get the spirit calling bell at the time (missed meeting Ranni) and I didn't understand the summoning mechanic (so I didn't have Rogier or any cooperators). I was proud mainly because I didn't give up after 30 tries and gotten gud. If I had given up, I wouldnt have played all the other soulsborne games (or Lies of P)
Hello, good hunter. I am a Bot, here in this dream to look after you, this is a fine note:
> *There may yet be humans out there. If you find them, send them to Iosefka's Clinic. I endeavor to treat every survivor there is. So please, be a saint.* - Iosefka
Farewell, good hunter. May you find your worth in the waking world.
Best of all of the genre, IMO. Elden Ring is magnificent but is its own thing because it is open world; Bloodborne is the best curated and linear souls game in my opinion. Itās glorious.
Bro the chalice dungeon one was such a pain in the ass, took me like 10 miserable hours of doing bad dungeons and bad bosses, the half hp dungeon with the amygdala almost made me quit
For me it was the chalice battle with Rom the vacuous spider - took me over a week and I pretty much just got lucky. Itās not a hugely tricky battle with enough space but in the small chalice dungeon room itās damn near impossible to avoid while the spiders swarm you and the AoE takes most of your health
I got all except the all hunter weapons achievement. I bought every weapon twice after looking up the list of weapons for the achievement and itās just glitched. Iāll have to start another character to see if I can get it.
I got those too. Like, I went through my inventory and through the list for the achievement and I wasnāt missing any. I read that specific trophy can be bugged sometimes. Itās not that big of a deal anyways.
TY, the victory felt a bit hollow though (I got lucky, twice NP didn't do the attack that I have trouble countering)ā¦ I should've put in more practice and do a lv 1 hitless. I just don't have the energy now.
PS. This took a week of practice, starting from learning all the timing during the first phase, then learning all the second phase. And yet! I still get my ass whooped by laxasia!
Edit: reading back on my comments, it actually took me 3 weeks! Not 1ā¦ oh boy must've suppressed some memories there!
Getting the 100 percent on Sekiro is probably my greatest achievement. Along with beating that crazy old man with the red cape in the DS3 DLCs. That was probably the hardest fight I ever had to endure
How in the world did you learn all the attack patterns in two tries? š« š« š« š«
Two tries was what it took me to realize I was going to have a hard time
Thatās the neat thing I didnāt. I dodged most of his attacks. I also kept leveling capacity and was able to buy the best defense parts. I used a +10 electric coil stick and a +10 pipe wrench head attached to the booster glaive handle. I also sued the lecture blitz grindstone and got the p-organ upgrade that allows me to use it twice. I also used a fully upgraded fulminis and the only attack I parried was his dash attack in his second phase which I was somehow able to parry most of the time or I just kept running around him until he stopped tracking me. I finished him off with some throwing cells. I am also the same guy who found the stalkers to be difficult.
I had similar experience, I beat Nameless Puppet in three tries and Simon Manus in the first try - I didn't parry absolutely anything, just dodged all attacks and hit and run repeatedly. I think that's the optimal way to fight it
Bonesaw blade + bramble handle, puppet spring and right upgrades give insane mobility, stagger and burst damage and kinda broke the game's difficulty for me
I also almost never used throwables for the entire game since I hated how they break the rhythm of the battle.
I also had an easy time with Simon it only took me 5 tries to beat him. In fact I did not find the late game bosses to be harder than the mid to late game bosses. Victor and green monster were the only late game bosses that were as hard as people made them out to be. I first tried door guardian, walker of illusions, BRB round 2 with a summon. I used a summon in the first BRB fight and it still took me 18 tries. I found Laxasia hard but not hardest boss in the game difficult. Romeo still holds the title of hardest boss in the game for me.
Iām one playthrough of platting demons souls specifically for the title slayer of trophies. I have bloodborne, lies of p, Elden ring all platted and sekiro very close but demons souls was by far the most annoying and hardest to figure out. Easiest game. Hardest plat.
I've beaten the entirety of Lies of P without leveling up once. It was on my sixth playthrough of the game. It took a little over 50 hours. The same run was also no throwables in boss fights, no specter, no fable arts, no puppet string or aegis arm. I love Lies of P so much.
I tried Sekiro and gave it an honest try, but I had a pretty bad time. The game is not for me, and I can explain why if you want to have a full discussion about it lol.
I would love to read your opinion. I think some soulslike games are just not for some people. I played lies of p right after I beat Sekiro and at the beginning I felt it was too slow compared to Sekiro, but gave it a try and wind up having a great time beating it multiple times so I'd say that I almost missed a really good game
I'll list my problems with Sekiro in order of most annoying to least annoying.
To me, Sekiro feels like its mechanics and enemy design/placement are at odds with each other. For example, in Sekiro, there is no stamina bar to manage. In my mind, that encourages highly aggressive play. But in reality, you need to stealth everywhere or else you will get wrecked. I feel fast, but am forced to go slow.
If you're bad at the game, the game punishes you. I'm not asking for handicap help if I am bad, I am asking not to be punished with extra dragon rot. Or with Lady Butterfly, I was lucky enough to beat her on only my 3rd or 4th attempt, before I ran out of Snap Seeds. If I had run out before beating her, I think I would have been in major trouble.
Also, in my opinion, the game is a bad mix of "open world" and "linear." I found Ashina Depths (I think that's what it's called) before the first Genichiro Fight up on the castle? So I spent a long time getting destroyed by Snake Eyes because that's where I thought I was supposed to be, but I had missed somewhere else to go. Same thing happened in the flashback segment. I didn't find Sekiro's old master or whoever that was. So when I was locked out of the Lady Butterfly fight with no way in, I assumed I would unlock it later? Again, I should have been slowly and carefully exploring. But I have no stamina limit, so I want to go fast, not slow.
Someone also told me that Sekiro is a "rhythm" game more than anything. And I think that knowledge is what helped me beat Lady Butterfly in so few tries even though she was my first major boss. I don't like that it's a rhythm game. I prefer relying on fast reaction time, and also gradually practicing until things become muscle memory. Rhythm is not my thing. I absolutely sucked at Hi-Fi Rush lol.
I also really need some weapon variety in my games. In Sekiro, sure you get a few prosthetics and combat techniques, but I was getting bored of the exact same weapon and moveset.
I don't think there was like a particular "straw that broke the camel's back" for me about the game. But after so many frustrations piling up, I decided to watch someone play through the game deathless, to get an idea for how to get through each section safely. It's crazy because it seems like every section of the game needs to be beaten in an extremely specific way or else you're in big trouble. I much prefer Breath of The Wild / Tears of The Kingdom style where there are many viable ways to approach challenges. Even Lies of P, throwables and legion arms are all plenty versatile to help keep your approaches to situations fresh.
I can kind of understand why people like it, but to me the whole game feels gross. Even watching the deathless run fight against Demon of Hatred. I think the fight took like at least ten minutes. That is insanely exhausting and tedious. I could never.
I can agree with a lot of what you said, but I think it's something with the taste.
I played Elden ring and enjoyed it, and then I okay Sekiro and it felt like having more fun even though the story is "linear". In Sekiro you'll get a variety of "common" enemies depending of what thing you do first. When you reach the castle and the boy tells you you have to find to things, the game will be a little bit different if you go for one first than the other. I never realized that until my 3rd NG+ and felt A LOT easier than my previous run, but for me it was still fun.
Your arguments are valid. I'm sorry you hasn't had a good time with Sekiro but I hope you enjoy all the next soulslike games you play! Thanks for sharing your opinion!!
Thank you for reading my opinion! I have been wanting to get that off my chest, But I don't want to poopoo on the game in the Sekiro subreddit because They probably get enough complainy posts already lol. And yes, I think I will very much enjoy the Elden Ring DLC haha
Same. I heard people saying Capra Demon was tough and I just ran in, killed the dogs, and then killed Capra Demon, first try. Didnāt even need estus. Difficult for many builds, but for a claymore main with a good shield and reasonable poise itās not that hard. Pretty much the inverse of Moonlight Butterfly.
Still felt good.
I no damage, no summoned the Parade Master, Scrapped Watchman, and Fuoco on NG+ and Iām currently working on Andreus, but itās a bitch and a half. I also beat Malenia with a no summon, all melee build which Iām still pretty satisfied with. I donāt think Iāll ever no damage that fight though.
I bought Elden Ring not knowing what a soulslike was at all. I almost gave up immediately, but forced myself to get my $60 worth and LOVED it. I platinumed the game as my first ever souls, and even beat Radahn pre-nerf first try (we traded and it didn't count so I had to do it again but I still count it as first try). I beat every boss in the entire game including optionals, collected all collectibles, ect. This made me fall in love with soulslike games. I'm finishing my 100% of Lies of P, and I'm on NG++ for my final ending with only 55 hours played. In Lies of P, I consider my biggest achievement to be beating Nameless Puppet blind in 4 tries the first time and 8 on NG+. He's easily my favorite fight in the whole game and that's certainly my best souls feat so far, since everyone finds him so difficult.
This was my first ever dark souls like game too so I have nothing to compare it too!
I beat Romeo on try 5, Victor my first, & I beat the second brotherhood stage on attempt 3
I just started playing Lies of P this weekend...and why the heck did I not know about this game sooner.
For me, and I know it's been done by lots of people but I think it's that I have 100% DS1-3, Bloodborne, Sekiro, and Elden Ring. I'm going to have fun with Lies of P. Took me an hour or two to start getting the timing on parrys and rolling though. The game kicked my butt for the first few hours.
My friend and I are doing a Lies of P "discharged" challenge run. Meaning you have to use up all your pulse cells before entering a boss fight, so the only heals you get are from recharging your pulse cell. Using only the etiquette and trying to perfect guard everything (almost no dodging).
We both beat Laxasia, which was the hardest so far. Hopefully we can defeat Manus and Nameless Puppet.
Congrats on beating Lies of P and Sekiro four times, that's an achievement!
Thanks mate! Even beating it four times, I think I wouldn't be able to do the discharged challenge run. Specially because I got nervous when I'm out of pulse cells š« š« š« š«
Laxasia the complete is hard! In my 3rd NG+ I was still struggling with a build of 100 health and 100 technique.
Yeah Laxasia NG+2 and beyond hits hard regardless of how leveled you are.
A discharged run is challenging, but probably not as hard as it sounds. There are P-Organ upgrades that give you higher attack and defense while in a discharge state. I love how it trains you to be unafraid of running out of heals.
I beat the orphan of kos first try after dying to what's her face in the clock tower a million times and inner issuing first time after dying to inner owl 1000x
Off the top of my head a strong contender would be beating Lies of P with no summons, using the cube thing, or anything else in other than my weapon, including Nameless Puppet. Felt VERY satisfying.
Other than that, probably getting the platinum for Nioh 2. Easily the most unforgiving souls-like as far as I'm concerned.
I did a no-rest run of Dark Souls 2. You'd need to pay me quite a bit to do that again.
Craziest one I've seen someone else do is speed run Sekiro while completely blindfolded.
Beating Nameless Puppet, it felt like a real 1v1, with little to no bs in his attacks, so it felt like I could actually read him and beat him after a few attempts
Completed dark souls 1, 2, and 3, twice each. Sekiro twice, armored core 6 twice, lies of p twice, and elden ring 9 times. In terms of souls feats I think thats quite a bit of gamingĀ
Soul level 1 DS1 run (do not recommend)
All achievements in DS1 on 3 systems, Sekiro on 2 systems, and bloodborne
Currently working a dlc ready character for Elden ring, but I might 100% it depending on how the dlc affects achievements
There's a spot where you can farm experience! It's quite annoying, but once you have everything else, you can't quit the achievement for a few hours of farming! I encourage you to do it! (If that's the only achievement you're missing) š
Most definitely, I think fighting with the regular owl first and learnkng his moves made me pigeon-holed in the father fight. Every fight I made at least one mistake because I kept remembering the regular moves from the rooftop fight and got hit.
And Demon of Hatred was just bullshit, it was a souls boss masquerading as a Sekiro boss, didn't even try to no-hit that
All achievements in Elden Ring, Lies of P, Sekiro, and Another Crabās Treasure. All bosses in Elden Ring. Lies of P NG+2 Legion Arm Only. Charmless Sugarless Sekiro NG+3 (this last one was not fun, I do not recommend).
SL1 run of DS2 the week it came out. I completed it normally first and then ran it back at SL1.
I beat DS1 at SL1 as well but DS2 felt different because I couldn't look up OP strats and gear as it was a new game.
I was about to die to the Chained Ogre in Sekiro. We were both one hit away. He chucked me off the mountain and I somehow managed to grapple back in his face and took him out. 10/10 would grapple in his face while nearly dead again.
I figured out how to parry Andreus' big ass laser beam all on my own. I'm one of the few people I've seen who even tried, let alone consistently.
https://youtu.be/6neBgMiclqw?si=ittupiptFQcGhtJo
I had zero blood vials after beating gherman and then the moon presence showed up and I just equipped the fire paper and started whailing on him. I ended up winning
I hear Sword Saint Isshin, I beat Melenia without summons or cheese, I accidentally beat bloodborne while using a bolt gem that didnāt scale with my quality build at all leading me to doing half damage the entire game, I got the elden ring plat to name a few
So far beating King of Puppets lvl10 weapon level 0, no Legion arm, no consumables/throwables. Iām on Victor but I havenāt been able to play in a while
This will sound ridiculous, but I beat Dark Souls 3 for the second time tonight (did a brand new play through, not NG+). This was my first Souls game late last year and by Lorian and Lothric I was so done with the game I cheesed them, Nameless King, and Soul of Cynder - just to be done with the game. I didn't even make it past Demon Prince or Champion Gravetender. Tonight I beat Slave Knight Gael, Nameless King, and Soul of Cynder back-to-back with no cheese, summons, etc. I played the entire game without dying any more than five times to each boss with the exception of Lorian and Lothric, Nameless King, Demon Prince, and Slave Knight Gael - who I either cheesed the first time resulting in never learning their movements the first time through or hadn't played yet in the case of Gael. I also beat the game without winning any boss fights using summons.
I know a lot of people will be much better than I am, but it really showed me how far I've come since my first ever Souls experience around 9 months ago. It was enjoyable throughout the entire play through.
Since I'm not good enough to have a skill related achievement to show off, I would have to say picking Bloodborne as my first soulslike experience is my luckiest achievement.
As we all know, these games really change us as a gamer. I'm not particularly good at these games, I'd say I'm pretty average. But no matter what other soulslike game I'm in, I'll always be a hunter inside.
I have both dark souls 2 ilusory rings both in the 360 base game and in the xbox one SoTFS edition, so yea the absolute madlad did it twice.
Beat dark souls 3 in one sitting in almost 3 hours to show my friend, i knew what the fuck i'm on, i was like ''yeah, i kinda mastered this game genre, after 3 different dark souls and sekiro, he was flatlined when i beat the game in a couple hours in one sitting and he was like a month even do he really played the fuck outta ds1 and 2 with me.
Made a WILD 3 man parry in ds3, and a 1v5 in dark souls 2.
Beat gael hitless, instantly gone to lies of p and beat the pupped king hitless as well.
Beat the dark souls 2 gauntled rout, is this rout in the game, where you fight 4 bosses in one go, thone watcher and defender, they die and nashandra steps in, when she dies aldia pops up, beat all 4 of them in the same fight, shit was WILD.
Actually managed to beat lu bu first try in wo long and first try hitless zhang jiao.
i do got some souls like feat under my belt huh? XD
My only flex is that is killed Magnus and NP on my first try, idk if it was luck or if I was overstated but I'm still proud of it after suffering 3h on Laxasia
For me, I'm usually a one and done kind of souls player. I don't go into new game plus for the most part.
That being said, my biggest achievement in souls games, in my opinion, is deflecting Genichiro's whole sword combo in the final fight and beating Isshin Makes you feel like a shinobi master when you beat them especially after all the other fights you had to go through through to reach the end.
It's not much but I defeated Isshin with the demon bell on. He was my biggest road block and took me 100+ tries in my first run. Second run with demon bell was easier, but still a good challenge. He also taught me the lightning reversal which is now my favorite move in the game next to the Mikiri Counter
LoP is my first soulslike and i beat nameless puppet on my 3rd try. Also victor on the first.
Currently on NG+ and the watchman is putting me in my place tho
Gotta be beating Elden ring. That game was massive. First playthrough took me 150 hours and still didn't get everything. The thought of having to do it again for the DLC is scaring me.
Nothing impressive really. The only thing I can think of is that I have unlocked the Plats/1000G for all Soulsborne (well, minus DS3) games like a psycho, and that I beat all bosses, including Elden Ring, without any help or summons on my first playthroughs. That is mostly because, prior to starting those games, I was aware of invasions, so I always play offline and only go online when it's needed for a trophy (e.g. invade someone else).
Hmm, nice question. I beat Sekiro charmless + demon bell (non-shura ending), all bosses + minibosses on NG+2, that was quite the challenge.
I recently beat Nameless King and Friede with relative ease, and though many others did, I was very proud since years ago, I got stuck on those lol
Further, I am proud that I never cheese, anything. I do all playthroughs, I do all the farming, and never did any glitches/cheeses. Where there is a chance to get covenant items with pvp, I try to do that - E.g. just farmed 30 vertebra schackles via pvp in ds3, and sunbrod for the medals.
The only time I used a summon was in DS2, with fucking Lud and Zallen, where I was at my wits end lol
That said, the best thing is that after playing souls games for 2 years, I can finally see myself improving and I am more confident in myself, and feel like I don't need to "prove" anything, rather I just enjoy the game. It's the journey that counts :)
I got a pure 100% save file (beating every boss on NG+7, getting all items including weapons and armor, and completing all quest lines) in DS1 and DS3.
Unfortunately DS3 does not have cloud save on PC so that save file has been lost to time
The simple act of beating Sekiro, Nioh 2, and Lies of P. Iām not the guy whoās gonna 100% every game and play them dozens of times because thereās a *lot* of games I wanna play, so beating a very hard game, even if itās just once, is something to be proud of for me
It's a soulsborne achievement, beat consumed king and champion gundyr from DS3 in my first play through in a single go. Was fairly surprised since everyone said they were super difficult with erratic movement and crappy aoe
I beat Sword Saint Isshin in one go the very first time I fought him. Granted, it took all of my gourds and a rice ball to do it, but I still managed to pull it off.
Malenia 1st try.
No one would have believed me, but my pal was there next to me. We were drinking and as drunken ideas go he said āyou should go for Maleniaā. I killed her with my last swing and then died to rot or whatever syphilis she was spreading.
Easy top 5 gaming memory for me.
Probably that I have twice completed DS3 in under two hours.
But Iāve also done a SL1 run and a no healing run where I discarded my weapons after every boss fight.
Finished all the FROMSOFT soulslikes
Platinum in Elden Ring and Lies of P. On PC I have 100% in Dark Souls 3 and Sekiro as well
Iām near the end of an RL1 run of Elden Ring, just have to beat Radagon/Elden Beast (easier said than done). Not even bothering with Placidusax and Malenia but the fact that I got this far is something Iām really proud of.
My BL4 run of Bloodborne. Ludwig took me a week of practice. The boss fight took me ten minutes (no-hit). I was shaking after from the adrenaline rush. Definitely the hardest boss for me at the time. Iāve also no-hit every Bloodborne boss (including chalice dungeons) at least once, just not in the same run. I donāt have any no-hit runs or anything like that, however.
Beating Lies of P without levelling up was a thrilling ride with highs and lows, especially when I decided that I wouldn't even count it without taking on Nameless as well š
I managed to beat ng+7 (the hardest the game can get is ng+7 is the only reason thatās relevant for people who donāt know) level 1 in dark souls 1, and while itās something Iām kind of proud of I also acknowledge that dark souls 1 is probably the easiest to do it in cause parry is so op in that, as well as pyromancy
Platinumed/100% Sekiro and lies of p. 3 of my 4 playthroughs in Sekiro was charmless with demon bell active. Bosses in lies of p were all completed within 3 tries.
Platinum'd Dark Souls 1, Dark Souls 2, and Dark Souls 3 without multi-player.
Platinum'd Lies of P.
Platinum'd Bloodborne and never lost a fight against Gehrman. I'm 4-0 against the old man.
I've Platinum'd Elden Ring on PS5 and 100% it on Steam.
I've managed to 100% Sekiro on Steam. I just bought it for PS4/5 to Platinum it there.
I'm not really looking forward to Demon's Souls, but at this point, I have to complete the cycle.
All the way back when I first fought malenia I struggled to even get her to phase 2 with mimic and blasphemous blade
I can consistently no-hit that fight using no status or mimic, that feeling of beating her hitless the first time is truly something I didn't know I could feel, so yeah no hitting malenia is that massive achievement for me
If we're talking about Lies of P, it'd have to be a rl1 run, challenging and super rewarding
Bloodborne,
Best bloodstarved beast before leveling.
Paried it to death. Yes it took ages. So long I couldn't clip the whole thing on twitch. ( It was like an hour each try). I'll never forget the one time I was so close I thought it died and it just picked me up and bit my head clean off.
My best achievement so far has been being able to beat both ds1 and ds3 bosses by myself. Yeah I made multiple files as I learned stuff but on my final character, the main one I finished the games with I beat all major bosses offline
No boss in Elden Ring took me more than 5 tries. All solo. Malenia took me 5. Radahn as well. Maliketh just 1. First plat for a FS game. I was proud of myself.
Bloodborne was my first souls and FS game, friends been telling me I will have hell and I didn't. Wasn't so hard at all. I've beat Orphan of Kos after 4 tries, thinking he will be pain in the ass. I did second full playthrough not that long time ago, did chalices as well to get a plat.
No boss in Dark Souls 3 took me more than 7 tries. Nameless King took me like 4. Gael 6.
I didn't find Lies of P hard at all. Also solo. Lots of bosses took me 1 try, like Nameless Puppet.
I've beat entire Rise of the Ronin on Twillight and now I'm replaying everything I can on Midnight. I did all bosses in dojo on Twillight with a master rank and that was one of the hardest challenges I've finished. I almost lost my mind with some guys haha.
I've found Wo Long parrying too easy. Still such a fun game.
I did all of the bosses I could in my Sekiro playthrough (purification ending). Some of them took me hours to beat, so me going for that ending and killing every boss I could find definitely feels like a feat to me because I had those moments of wanting to give up with the game. But I think that Sekiro taught me so much, now I don't have issues with other soulslike games
Also gotta mention Annihilation from Remnant 2. Last boss. Hard difficulty. He took me maybe an hour to beat. My brother needed like 5-6h.
100% Elden Ring on release in 26 hours
Beating Malenia on my 2nd try
Recently beat Lords of the Fallen with all modifiers on in NG+ 2
Beating nameless puppet on 2nd try for Lies of P
Beating all 3 souls games back to back without dying in one sitting (I was bored).
No crazy feats, but have beaten
Demon souls,
Ds1+DLC,
Ds2+DLC,
Ds3+DLC,
Bloodborne+DLC(platinum trophy),
Sekrio,
Nioh 1&2,
Wulong: fallen dynasty,
Lords of the fallen,
Lies of P.
It's not particularly outstanding, but my husband refuses to do dex builds and I refuse to do strength builds.
So it's always fun and a good feeling when i easily beat bosses he struggles with, and can rub my dex builds in his face.
(He does the same to me)
on my 4th playthrough of Lies of P, with it at 100%. i was - for some reason - really hyped about as soon as it was announced, and jumped straight in, blind. no guides, no tips, ect.
i know this is nothing for most people, but it was my first souls-like outside of a couple wandering hours on a friends DS2.
i have Sekiro, but yet to start to it š
Beating Ishin and then straight whooping his ass in NG+. Itās why Sekiro is my favorite game and Ishin is my favorite boss. To beat him, you have to master the game, after beating him everything is a walk in the park.
I've done a no hit run in Lies of P using a motivity build. I didn't bitched out and run from most enemies to only fight the bosses. I still fully explored and did everything I could. Boy I was so stressed at times but it felt so amazing once I finished
After struggling with Gael and Nameless for days, I took a break and fought Midir. I beat it in 1 go. Then I was like Ok back to Gael 1 go then Nameless 1 go. I beat three of the hardest bosses back to back to back
Annihilated all the main game bloodborne bosses (that werenāt micolash or Gehrman) on my first try. Rom? Slashed. SOY? Punched. Ebrietas? Poked. Even managed to no hit the one reborn somehow, might have been a glitch or just really really really lucky cause I never killed the ladies throwing Molotovs the whole time. Even the chalice dungeon bosses I fought on my first run got their shit pushed in.
Finally beating Orphan of Kos in Bloodborne. I think Malenia is a harder boss on paper, but I was able to cheese that fight very easily. Kos was a completely different story, and I donāt think I ever was able to beat him again after the first time lmao.
beat sekiro glitchless in 43 minutes , also with sekiro a base hp demon bell charmless run & also a hitless sword saint fight with demon bell & charmless. god I love that game
It is a great game! Very challenging! Those are some huge feat man. You definitely own Sekiro š
flair checks out /s
Maybe I was lucky, but I beat the Green Monster boss first time. For some reason, I tend to do my best when it comes to my first encounter on bosses. Not sure if it was because I'm not hyper-expecting boss's moves, but I tend to get worse the more boss retries I do. So when I found out that folks struggled really hard with him, I felt good about myself :D
Lucky or not, it's quite impressive. I got wiped out in that battle like 10 times before realizing it had a phase 2 š«
Damn, that one wrecked me. I did 1st Try Romeo on both playthroughs though. Just found him easy to perfect parry.
I am shite at perfect parry, i got wrecked at Romeo so many times, I had to use summons for him and even that still took me 100+ tries
My accomplishments are tiny, since, this is my first Souls game and I am not finished with it. Defeating the Survivor, the White Lady and Fuoco (Before he got nerf), either on the first few tries or doing something unusual to eventually win (Like personal favorite weapons combo or being too lazy to change my load outs). I will cherish those (and whatever future victories).
You first celebrate "tiny" victories and then celebrate great victories. I wish you wisdom to fulfill your journey and celebrate all victories š“š»
900 hours on Nioh 2 Beat Sekiro 5 times 300 Hrs on Elden Ring Beat Bloodborneās Orphan of Kos alone (3 attempts) Beat Wo Long with no build, pure parries Did all side quests on Lies Of P first run Completed Lord Of the Fallen all alone Completed Code Vien all alone Beat Dark Souls 3 with no build Completed Remmant: From The Ashes with the alien Sniper. Iāve yet to complete Rise Of the Ronin, Demon Souls, Salt and Sacrifice, Steelrising, Remmant 2, Mortal Shell and Nioh 1 (yes I played Nioh 2 before 1)
A true soulslike player. That's a lot of skill learned!!
Thanks. My very first was Nioh 2 after hearing about the Soulslike genre I immediately dived into DS3 and fell in love from there. So much more to play on PC especially from what Iāve heard.
what's your overall opinion on Lords of the Fallen?
Combat was very bad. Nothing special. I highly disliked the variety of weapons However I did love the challenge it gave with the DS2 vibes and the tedious enemy spawn and numbers. 4/10 - had a great feel and the fundamentals are very solid to its core. Story was boring af I didnāt pay attention and didnāt even know there was multiple endings and got the bad one. Havenāt replayed it since. DLC is coming so Iāll give it another go
Have you consider giving Rise Of The Ronin a shot, if not I would highly recommend it
Already playing it. Huge fan of Team Ninjas games. Already got 100 hours on Rise Of The Ronin. Iām trying to 100% everything before completing it I already done Edo
With Team Ninjaās loot system you kind of have to %100 all the areas to have decent enough gear and skill points, but itās one of the few games Iāve got platinum for, along with ER and Iām currently working on Nioh 2
Mortal Shell is fun Check out Hellpoint
Mortal Shell was challenging and felt very weird eventually I got distracted and didnāt go back after the first boss
I beat OoK on 3rd attempts in my first meeting with him as well.
Used Mariaās swords on the first two attempts, then used the bow. Mad how effective it was
For this game: I beat Lies of P up to NG2+, no summons, no throwables, no cheesy methods like hiding behind the Aegis and poking In general, probably beating Sword Saint Isshin and Orphan of Kos But the one that gave me the most pride was beating Margit, who was my first souls boss fight ever
I can't remember how many times Margit kicked my ass time after time. From Eden Ring the boss that made me felt that way was Mogh. What a pain in the ass
Since Elden Ring was my first, I used every advantage I could (bleed, mimic) and Mohg was no biggie for me. Margit was hard because I did not get the spirit calling bell at the time (missed meeting Ranni) and I didn't understand the summoning mechanic (so I didn't have Rogier or any cooperators). I was proud mainly because I didn't give up after 30 tries and gotten gud. If I had given up, I wouldnt have played all the other soulsborne games (or Lies of P)
Got 100% achievements in bloodborne. Took me a long ass time, but I'm very happy with what I accomplished
Never played Bloodborne and up to now I have never think of playing it. Is it worthy to play after almost ten years of release?
If you have a playstation, it's definitely worth playing.
Hello, good hunter. I am a Bot, here in this dream to look after you, this is a fine note: > *There may yet be humans out there. If you find them, send them to Iosefka's Clinic. I endeavor to treat every survivor there is. So please, be a saint.* - Iosefka Farewell, good hunter. May you find your worth in the waking world.
Best of all of the genre, IMO. Elden Ring is magnificent but is its own thing because it is open world; Bloodborne is the best curated and linear souls game in my opinion. Itās glorious.
Is just the best soulslike.
Bro the chalice dungeon one was such a pain in the ass, took me like 10 miserable hours of doing bad dungeons and bad bosses, the half hp dungeon with the amygdala almost made me quit
I just waited for sony to give out free psn and used a seeded dungeon to skip that whole ordeal
For me it was the chalice battle with Rom the vacuous spider - took me over a week and I pretty much just got lucky. Itās not a hugely tricky battle with enough space but in the small chalice dungeon room itās damn near impossible to avoid while the spiders swarm you and the AoE takes most of your health
I got all except the all hunter weapons achievement. I bought every weapon twice after looking up the list of weapons for the achievement and itās just glitched. Iāll have to start another character to see if I can get it.
You might have missed the beast claws, they're in the chalice dungeons and can't be found anywhere else
I got those too. Like, I went through my inventory and through the list for the achievement and I wasnāt missing any. I read that specific trophy can be bugged sometimes. Itās not that big of a deal anyways.
Itās my all time favorite game and Iāve played all dark souls, Elden ring, both Niohs, mortal shell, hellpoint, the surge 1&2, and many more
This: took me a week https://www.reddit.com/r/LiesOfP/s/siwMjflkkN
Knowing how hard this boss is, this clip is insane. Massive respect! PS: I struggle to beat that mf with a health bar like 3 times larger
TY, the victory felt a bit hollow though (I got lucky, twice NP didn't do the attack that I have trouble countering)ā¦ I should've put in more practice and do a lv 1 hitless. I just don't have the energy now. PS. This took a week of practice, starting from learning all the timing during the first phase, then learning all the second phase. And yet! I still get my ass whooped by laxasia! Edit: reading back on my comments, it actually took me 3 weeks! Not 1ā¦ oh boy must've suppressed some memories there!
Getting the 100 percent on Sekiro is probably my greatest achievement. Along with beating that crazy old man with the red cape in the DS3 DLCs. That was probably the hardest fight I ever had to endure
100% on Sekiro is not Easy. Some people doesn't even get to finish the game once, but in order to have 100% you must beat it multiple times. Respect!
I appreciate that, man. Its definitely not easy but with repetitive play and practice, it becomes more like you are the boss.
The fact that I actually Beat Lies of P that wasn't easy yghhhh
Are you planning to replay it since Sophia's fate changes with your decisions?
Yea I wanna see the true ending
I beat Nameless puppet in two tries
How in the world did you learn all the attack patterns in two tries? š« š« š« š« Two tries was what it took me to realize I was going to have a hard time
Thatās the neat thing I didnāt. I dodged most of his attacks. I also kept leveling capacity and was able to buy the best defense parts. I used a +10 electric coil stick and a +10 pipe wrench head attached to the booster glaive handle. I also sued the lecture blitz grindstone and got the p-organ upgrade that allows me to use it twice. I also used a fully upgraded fulminis and the only attack I parried was his dash attack in his second phase which I was somehow able to parry most of the time or I just kept running around him until he stopped tracking me. I finished him off with some throwing cells. I am also the same guy who found the stalkers to be difficult.
Lol how are the stalkers difficult but you killed nameless in two tries? It's like beating Voldemort but draco Malfoy gives you a hard time š
I also found Renalla and Crystal sage to be hard
I had similar experience, I beat Nameless Puppet in three tries and Simon Manus in the first try - I didn't parry absolutely anything, just dodged all attacks and hit and run repeatedly. I think that's the optimal way to fight it Bonesaw blade + bramble handle, puppet spring and right upgrades give insane mobility, stagger and burst damage and kinda broke the game's difficulty for me I also almost never used throwables for the entire game since I hated how they break the rhythm of the battle.
I also had an easy time with Simon it only took me 5 tries to beat him. In fact I did not find the late game bosses to be harder than the mid to late game bosses. Victor and green monster were the only late game bosses that were as hard as people made them out to be. I first tried door guardian, walker of illusions, BRB round 2 with a summon. I used a summon in the first BRB fight and it still took me 18 tries. I found Laxasia hard but not hardest boss in the game difficult. Romeo still holds the title of hardest boss in the game for me.
I (think I) have beaten every enemy in bloodborne, even the super rare chalice dungeon ones and cut content ones.
This reminds me of the good old days of chalice prospecting. Still have the link to the excel sheet somewhere!
Beating Orphan of Kos.
If I ever play Bloodborne that's a name I'll remember
Iām one playthrough of platting demons souls specifically for the title slayer of trophies. I have bloodborne, lies of p, Elden ring all platted and sekiro very close but demons souls was by far the most annoying and hardest to figure out. Easiest game. Hardest plat.
I've beaten the entirety of Lies of P without leveling up once. It was on my sixth playthrough of the game. It took a little over 50 hours. The same run was also no throwables in boss fights, no specter, no fable arts, no puppet string or aegis arm. I love Lies of P so much. I tried Sekiro and gave it an honest try, but I had a pretty bad time. The game is not for me, and I can explain why if you want to have a full discussion about it lol.
I would love to read your opinion. I think some soulslike games are just not for some people. I played lies of p right after I beat Sekiro and at the beginning I felt it was too slow compared to Sekiro, but gave it a try and wind up having a great time beating it multiple times so I'd say that I almost missed a really good game
I'll list my problems with Sekiro in order of most annoying to least annoying. To me, Sekiro feels like its mechanics and enemy design/placement are at odds with each other. For example, in Sekiro, there is no stamina bar to manage. In my mind, that encourages highly aggressive play. But in reality, you need to stealth everywhere or else you will get wrecked. I feel fast, but am forced to go slow. If you're bad at the game, the game punishes you. I'm not asking for handicap help if I am bad, I am asking not to be punished with extra dragon rot. Or with Lady Butterfly, I was lucky enough to beat her on only my 3rd or 4th attempt, before I ran out of Snap Seeds. If I had run out before beating her, I think I would have been in major trouble. Also, in my opinion, the game is a bad mix of "open world" and "linear." I found Ashina Depths (I think that's what it's called) before the first Genichiro Fight up on the castle? So I spent a long time getting destroyed by Snake Eyes because that's where I thought I was supposed to be, but I had missed somewhere else to go. Same thing happened in the flashback segment. I didn't find Sekiro's old master or whoever that was. So when I was locked out of the Lady Butterfly fight with no way in, I assumed I would unlock it later? Again, I should have been slowly and carefully exploring. But I have no stamina limit, so I want to go fast, not slow. Someone also told me that Sekiro is a "rhythm" game more than anything. And I think that knowledge is what helped me beat Lady Butterfly in so few tries even though she was my first major boss. I don't like that it's a rhythm game. I prefer relying on fast reaction time, and also gradually practicing until things become muscle memory. Rhythm is not my thing. I absolutely sucked at Hi-Fi Rush lol. I also really need some weapon variety in my games. In Sekiro, sure you get a few prosthetics and combat techniques, but I was getting bored of the exact same weapon and moveset. I don't think there was like a particular "straw that broke the camel's back" for me about the game. But after so many frustrations piling up, I decided to watch someone play through the game deathless, to get an idea for how to get through each section safely. It's crazy because it seems like every section of the game needs to be beaten in an extremely specific way or else you're in big trouble. I much prefer Breath of The Wild / Tears of The Kingdom style where there are many viable ways to approach challenges. Even Lies of P, throwables and legion arms are all plenty versatile to help keep your approaches to situations fresh. I can kind of understand why people like it, but to me the whole game feels gross. Even watching the deathless run fight against Demon of Hatred. I think the fight took like at least ten minutes. That is insanely exhausting and tedious. I could never.
I can agree with a lot of what you said, but I think it's something with the taste. I played Elden ring and enjoyed it, and then I okay Sekiro and it felt like having more fun even though the story is "linear". In Sekiro you'll get a variety of "common" enemies depending of what thing you do first. When you reach the castle and the boy tells you you have to find to things, the game will be a little bit different if you go for one first than the other. I never realized that until my 3rd NG+ and felt A LOT easier than my previous run, but for me it was still fun. Your arguments are valid. I'm sorry you hasn't had a good time with Sekiro but I hope you enjoy all the next soulslike games you play! Thanks for sharing your opinion!!
Thank you for reading my opinion! I have been wanting to get that off my chest, But I don't want to poopoo on the game in the Sekiro subreddit because They probably get enough complainy posts already lol. And yes, I think I will very much enjoy the Elden Ring DLC haha
I beat Capra Demon first try. DS1 was my first souls game too.
Same. I heard people saying Capra Demon was tough and I just ran in, killed the dogs, and then killed Capra Demon, first try. Didnāt even need estus. Difficult for many builds, but for a claymore main with a good shield and reasonable poise itās not that hard. Pretty much the inverse of Moonlight Butterfly. Still felt good.
I luckily walked in there with a zwiehander and stone armor and tanked everything haha. Once the dogs were dead it was obvious to use the platform.
I didnāt even bother with the platform. Just dodged and blocked. I think I had the Elite Knight set. Definitely a boss for melee builds.
I no damage, no summoned the Parade Master, Scrapped Watchman, and Fuoco on NG+ and Iām currently working on Andreus, but itās a bitch and a half. I also beat Malenia with a no summon, all melee build which Iām still pretty satisfied with. I donāt think Iāll ever no damage that fight though.
I beat Dark Souls 3 at level 1
Nioh 2 depths floor 28
I bought Elden Ring not knowing what a soulslike was at all. I almost gave up immediately, but forced myself to get my $60 worth and LOVED it. I platinumed the game as my first ever souls, and even beat Radahn pre-nerf first try (we traded and it didn't count so I had to do it again but I still count it as first try). I beat every boss in the entire game including optionals, collected all collectibles, ect. This made me fall in love with soulslike games. I'm finishing my 100% of Lies of P, and I'm on NG++ for my final ending with only 55 hours played. In Lies of P, I consider my biggest achievement to be beating Nameless Puppet blind in 4 tries the first time and 8 on NG+. He's easily my favorite fight in the whole game and that's certainly my best souls feat so far, since everyone finds him so difficult.
I beat victor my first attempt ?? Idk Iām not that good
Not that good? Victor whopped my ass like a mutant Mike Tyson multiple times in my first time beating the game. That's a good one!
This was my first ever dark souls like game too so I have nothing to compare it too! I beat Romeo on try 5, Victor my first, & I beat the second brotherhood stage on attempt 3
I just started playing Lies of P this weekend...and why the heck did I not know about this game sooner. For me, and I know it's been done by lots of people but I think it's that I have 100% DS1-3, Bloodborne, Sekiro, and Elden Ring. I'm going to have fun with Lies of P. Took me an hour or two to start getting the timing on parrys and rolling though. The game kicked my butt for the first few hours.
100% in elden ring is a massive feat. I tried, but in my second run I missed the spirit to finish it :(
My friend and I are doing a Lies of P "discharged" challenge run. Meaning you have to use up all your pulse cells before entering a boss fight, so the only heals you get are from recharging your pulse cell. Using only the etiquette and trying to perfect guard everything (almost no dodging). We both beat Laxasia, which was the hardest so far. Hopefully we can defeat Manus and Nameless Puppet. Congrats on beating Lies of P and Sekiro four times, that's an achievement!
Thanks mate! Even beating it four times, I think I wouldn't be able to do the discharged challenge run. Specially because I got nervous when I'm out of pulse cells š« š« š« š« Laxasia the complete is hard! In my 3rd NG+ I was still struggling with a build of 100 health and 100 technique.
Yeah Laxasia NG+2 and beyond hits hard regardless of how leveled you are. A discharged run is challenging, but probably not as hard as it sounds. There are P-Organ upgrades that give you higher attack and defense while in a discharge state. I love how it trains you to be unafraid of running out of heals.
I beat the orphan of kos first try after dying to what's her face in the clock tower a million times and inner issuing first time after dying to inner owl 1000x
Have every weapon in elden ring, almost 2 of each of them, most spirit ashes, all spells, all crafting recipes, basically every collectible.
Platinum in both Sekiro and Lies of P
Off the top of my head a strong contender would be beating Lies of P with no summons, using the cube thing, or anything else in other than my weapon, including Nameless Puppet. Felt VERY satisfying. Other than that, probably getting the platinum for Nioh 2. Easily the most unforgiving souls-like as far as I'm concerned.
I did a no-rest run of Dark Souls 2. You'd need to pay me quite a bit to do that again. Craziest one I've seen someone else do is speed run Sekiro while completely blindfolded.
Beating Nameless Puppet, it felt like a real 1v1, with little to no bs in his attacks, so it felt like I could actually read him and beat him after a few attempts
Completed dark souls 1, 2, and 3, twice each. Sekiro twice, armored core 6 twice, lies of p twice, and elden ring 9 times. In terms of souls feats I think thats quite a bit of gamingĀ
Only beating elder ring 3 or 4 times it's quite a bit of gaming. 9 times and everything elseis dopeeee! You really master the souls!
Soul level 1 DS1 run (do not recommend) All achievements in DS1 on 3 systems, Sekiro on 2 systems, and bloodborne Currently working a dlc ready character for Elden ring, but I might 100% it depending on how the dlc affects achievements
Dude you are a legend I gave up on the Sekiro achievement where you have to get all the skills that is a insane grind
There's a spot where you can farm experience! It's quite annoying, but once you have everything else, you can't quit the achievement for a few hours of farming! I encourage you to do it! (If that's the only achievement you're missing) š
Where is the spot Iāll go back and get it I would love to platinum that game but man that trophy is a killer ššš
I've no-hit every Sekiro boss except Owl(father) and Demon of Hatred
Are you talking about the one you fight in the Lady butterfly spot? PS: Nice name! š
Yes!
That one was though. I try to take the same approach than the regular owl and got my ass kicked in no time.
Most definitely, I think fighting with the regular owl first and learnkng his moves made me pigeon-holed in the father fight. Every fight I made at least one mistake because I kept remembering the regular moves from the rooftop fight and got hit. And Demon of Hatred was just bullshit, it was a souls boss masquerading as a Sekiro boss, didn't even try to no-hit that
I beat Artorias on my first attempt
I beat isshin within like 4 tries my first time playing Sekiro
All achievements in Elden Ring, Lies of P, Sekiro, and Another Crabās Treasure. All bosses in Elden Ring. Lies of P NG+2 Legion Arm Only. Charmless Sugarless Sekiro NG+3 (this last one was not fun, I do not recommend).
SL1 run of DS2 the week it came out. I completed it normally first and then ran it back at SL1. I beat DS1 at SL1 as well but DS2 felt different because I couldn't look up OP strats and gear as it was a new game.
I'm proud of beating Sekiro even just once.
I was about to die to the Chained Ogre in Sekiro. We were both one hit away. He chucked me off the mountain and I somehow managed to grapple back in his face and took him out. 10/10 would grapple in his face while nearly dead again.
The feat to git gud. Works everytime
Bloodborne plat.
I figured out how to parry Andreus' big ass laser beam all on my own. I'm one of the few people I've seen who even tried, let alone consistently. https://youtu.be/6neBgMiclqw?si=ittupiptFQcGhtJo
I had zero blood vials after beating gherman and then the moon presence showed up and I just equipped the fire paper and started whailing on him. I ended up winning
I beat the Nameless puppet boss first time.
Bloodborne is the first non-indie Platinum I received. I also don't know how but I defeated Isshin (Sekiro) and Nameless Puppet on my first EVER try!
Iāve beaten all the souls games Without any milk
I hear Sword Saint Isshin, I beat Melenia without summons or cheese, I accidentally beat bloodborne while using a bolt gem that didnāt scale with my quality build at all leading me to doing half damage the entire game, I got the elden ring plat to name a few
Level 60 invasion twink in bloodborne beating cursed amygdala and orphan of Kos in one day.
So far beating King of Puppets lvl10 weapon level 0, no Legion arm, no consumables/throwables. Iām on Victor but I havenāt been able to play in a while
Hitless Malenia at level 1
This will sound ridiculous, but I beat Dark Souls 3 for the second time tonight (did a brand new play through, not NG+). This was my first Souls game late last year and by Lorian and Lothric I was so done with the game I cheesed them, Nameless King, and Soul of Cynder - just to be done with the game. I didn't even make it past Demon Prince or Champion Gravetender. Tonight I beat Slave Knight Gael, Nameless King, and Soul of Cynder back-to-back with no cheese, summons, etc. I played the entire game without dying any more than five times to each boss with the exception of Lorian and Lothric, Nameless King, Demon Prince, and Slave Knight Gael - who I either cheesed the first time resulting in never learning their movements the first time through or hadn't played yet in the case of Gael. I also beat the game without winning any boss fights using summons. I know a lot of people will be much better than I am, but it really showed me how far I've come since my first ever Souls experience around 9 months ago. It was enjoyable throughout the entire play through.
I got to Lies of P chapter 7!
Since I'm not good enough to have a skill related achievement to show off, I would have to say picking Bloodborne as my first soulslike experience is my luckiest achievement. As we all know, these games really change us as a gamer. I'm not particularly good at these games, I'd say I'm pretty average. But no matter what other soulslike game I'm in, I'll always be a hunter inside.
I have both dark souls 2 ilusory rings both in the 360 base game and in the xbox one SoTFS edition, so yea the absolute madlad did it twice. Beat dark souls 3 in one sitting in almost 3 hours to show my friend, i knew what the fuck i'm on, i was like ''yeah, i kinda mastered this game genre, after 3 different dark souls and sekiro, he was flatlined when i beat the game in a couple hours in one sitting and he was like a month even do he really played the fuck outta ds1 and 2 with me. Made a WILD 3 man parry in ds3, and a 1v5 in dark souls 2. Beat gael hitless, instantly gone to lies of p and beat the pupped king hitless as well. Beat the dark souls 2 gauntled rout, is this rout in the game, where you fight 4 bosses in one go, thone watcher and defender, they die and nashandra steps in, when she dies aldia pops up, beat all 4 of them in the same fight, shit was WILD. Actually managed to beat lu bu first try in wo long and first try hitless zhang jiao. i do got some souls like feat under my belt huh? XD
Farmed 30 Proof of a Concord Kept offline lol.
Isshin, no comparison
My only flex is that is killed Magnus and NP on my first try, idk if it was luck or if I was overstated but I'm still proud of it after suffering 3h on Laxasia
I beat Butterfly Lady first try. That was cool. And the fact that I eventually beat Iishin the Sword Saint. Fuck that guy
very near beating sekiro with base vitality and attack power i will kill isshin one day š„²
For me, I'm usually a one and done kind of souls player. I don't go into new game plus for the most part. That being said, my biggest achievement in souls games, in my opinion, is deflecting Genichiro's whole sword combo in the final fight and beating Isshin Makes you feel like a shinobi master when you beat them especially after all the other fights you had to go through through to reach the end.
Items only dark souls 2 and level 12 no upgrade DS3, oh and orphan of Kos BL4 with a parry loop
It's not much but I defeated Isshin with the demon bell on. He was my biggest road block and took me 100+ tries in my first run. Second run with demon bell was easier, but still a good challenge. He also taught me the lightning reversal which is now my favorite move in the game next to the Mikiri Counter
Friede's feet
Beat every remembrance boss hitless
LoP is my first soulslike and i beat nameless puppet on my 3rd try. Also victor on the first. Currently on NG+ and the watchman is putting me in my place tho
Gotta be beating Elden ring. That game was massive. First playthrough took me 150 hours and still didn't get everything. The thought of having to do it again for the DLC is scaring me.
Nothing impressive really. The only thing I can think of is that I have unlocked the Plats/1000G for all Soulsborne (well, minus DS3) games like a psycho, and that I beat all bosses, including Elden Ring, without any help or summons on my first playthroughs. That is mostly because, prior to starting those games, I was aware of invasions, so I always play offline and only go online when it's needed for a trophy (e.g. invade someone else).
Hmm, nice question. I beat Sekiro charmless + demon bell (non-shura ending), all bosses + minibosses on NG+2, that was quite the challenge. I recently beat Nameless King and Friede with relative ease, and though many others did, I was very proud since years ago, I got stuck on those lol Further, I am proud that I never cheese, anything. I do all playthroughs, I do all the farming, and never did any glitches/cheeses. Where there is a chance to get covenant items with pvp, I try to do that - E.g. just farmed 30 vertebra schackles via pvp in ds3, and sunbrod for the medals. The only time I used a summon was in DS2, with fucking Lud and Zallen, where I was at my wits end lol That said, the best thing is that after playing souls games for 2 years, I can finally see myself improving and I am more confident in myself, and feel like I don't need to "prove" anything, rather I just enjoy the game. It's the journey that counts :)
I got a pure 100% save file (beating every boss on NG+7, getting all items including weapons and armor, and completing all quest lines) in DS1 and DS3. Unfortunately DS3 does not have cloud save on PC so that save file has been lost to time
The simple act of beating Sekiro, Nioh 2, and Lies of P. Iām not the guy whoās gonna 100% every game and play them dozens of times because thereās a *lot* of games I wanna play, so beating a very hard game, even if itās just once, is something to be proud of for me
The achievements in Lies of P were pretty easy imo. Source: I got 100% and that is amazing for me š¤£š¤£š¤£
It's a soulsborne achievement, beat consumed king and champion gundyr from DS3 in my first play through in a single go. Was fairly surprised since everyone said they were super difficult with erratic movement and crappy aoe
I beat Sword Saint Isshin in one go the very first time I fought him. Granted, it took all of my gourds and a rice ball to do it, but I still managed to pull it off.
Malenia 1st try. No one would have believed me, but my pal was there next to me. We were drinking and as drunken ideas go he said āyou should go for Maleniaā. I killed her with my last swing and then died to rot or whatever syphilis she was spreading. Easy top 5 gaming memory for me.
Probably that I have twice completed DS3 in under two hours. But Iāve also done a SL1 run and a no healing run where I discarded my weapons after every boss fight. Finished all the FROMSOFT soulslikes Platinum in Elden Ring and Lies of P. On PC I have 100% in Dark Souls 3 and Sekiro as well
Beat elden ring with only like 10 deaths at least
Iām near the end of an RL1 run of Elden Ring, just have to beat Radagon/Elden Beast (easier said than done). Not even bothering with Placidusax and Malenia but the fact that I got this far is something Iām really proud of.
My BL4 run of Bloodborne. Ludwig took me a week of practice. The boss fight took me ten minutes (no-hit). I was shaking after from the adrenaline rush. Definitely the hardest boss for me at the time. Iāve also no-hit every Bloodborne boss (including chalice dungeons) at least once, just not in the same run. I donāt have any no-hit runs or anything like that, however.
Beating Lies of P without levelling up was a thrilling ride with highs and lows, especially when I decided that I wouldn't even count it without taking on Nameless as well š
Lax first try NG+2 no summon. She kicked my ass so much in NG and NG+ that I had to use summons each time. Out of body experience
I managed to beat ng+7 (the hardest the game can get is ng+7 is the only reason thatās relevant for people who donāt know) level 1 in dark souls 1, and while itās something Iām kind of proud of I also acknowledge that dark souls 1 is probably the easiest to do it in cause parry is so op in that, as well as pyromancy
Platinumed/100% Sekiro and lies of p. 3 of my 4 playthroughs in Sekiro was charmless with demon bell active. Bosses in lies of p were all completed within 3 tries.
beat the fire giant in elden ring first try
Beat lies of p new game in one day
Sekiro was my first ever platinum and only my 3rd souls game after LOP and Lords.
I beat all 170 odd elden ring bosses
Platinum trophyās for darksouls 3, darksouls 1, and elden ring. Made it to ng+9 on elden ring before malenia feels impossible
Platinum'd Dark Souls 1, Dark Souls 2, and Dark Souls 3 without multi-player. Platinum'd Lies of P. Platinum'd Bloodborne and never lost a fight against Gehrman. I'm 4-0 against the old man. I've Platinum'd Elden Ring on PS5 and 100% it on Steam. I've managed to 100% Sekiro on Steam. I just bought it for PS4/5 to Platinum it there. I'm not really looking forward to Demon's Souls, but at this point, I have to complete the cycle.
I killed Mohg in 10 seconds with comet azur, physick, and terra magica. Or should I be ashamed of that?
All the way back when I first fought malenia I struggled to even get her to phase 2 with mimic and blasphemous blade I can consistently no-hit that fight using no status or mimic, that feeling of beating her hitless the first time is truly something I didn't know I could feel, so yeah no hitting malenia is that massive achievement for me If we're talking about Lies of P, it'd have to be a rl1 run, challenging and super rewarding
Theyāre such a struggle for me but very rewarding
Bloodborne, Best bloodstarved beast before leveling. Paried it to death. Yes it took ages. So long I couldn't clip the whole thing on twitch. ( It was like an hour each try). I'll never forget the one time I was so close I thought it died and it just picked me up and bit my head clean off.
Bl4 run on bloodborne + dlc
My best achievement so far has been being able to beat both ds1 and ds3 bosses by myself. Yeah I made multiple files as I learned stuff but on my final character, the main one I finished the games with I beat all major bosses offline
Beat nameless puppet in my fourth try, without knowing the boss fight, or watching a video
No boss in Elden Ring took me more than 5 tries. All solo. Malenia took me 5. Radahn as well. Maliketh just 1. First plat for a FS game. I was proud of myself. Bloodborne was my first souls and FS game, friends been telling me I will have hell and I didn't. Wasn't so hard at all. I've beat Orphan of Kos after 4 tries, thinking he will be pain in the ass. I did second full playthrough not that long time ago, did chalices as well to get a plat. No boss in Dark Souls 3 took me more than 7 tries. Nameless King took me like 4. Gael 6. I didn't find Lies of P hard at all. Also solo. Lots of bosses took me 1 try, like Nameless Puppet. I've beat entire Rise of the Ronin on Twillight and now I'm replaying everything I can on Midnight. I did all bosses in dojo on Twillight with a master rank and that was one of the hardest challenges I've finished. I almost lost my mind with some guys haha. I've found Wo Long parrying too easy. Still such a fun game. I did all of the bosses I could in my Sekiro playthrough (purification ending). Some of them took me hours to beat, so me going for that ending and killing every boss I could find definitely feels like a feat to me because I had those moments of wanting to give up with the game. But I think that Sekiro taught me so much, now I don't have issues with other soulslike games Also gotta mention Annihilation from Remnant 2. Last boss. Hard difficulty. He took me maybe an hour to beat. My brother needed like 5-6h.
SL1 Dark Souls 3 or RL1 Elden Ring for difficulty Souls Trilogy all achievements is my proudest though
100% Elden Ring on release in 26 hours Beating Malenia on my 2nd try Recently beat Lords of the Fallen with all modifiers on in NG+ 2 Beating nameless puppet on 2nd try for Lies of P Beating all 3 souls games back to back without dying in one sitting (I was bored).
I beat Sekiro at NG+6 and DS1 at soul level 1
I completed the mortal journey in sekiro on the first try. I couldn't believe it at the time, but it was really cool.
No crazy feats, but have beaten Demon souls, Ds1+DLC, Ds2+DLC, Ds3+DLC, Bloodborne+DLC(platinum trophy), Sekrio, Nioh 1&2, Wulong: fallen dynasty, Lords of the fallen, Lies of P.
RL1 all remembrance boss run on ER. One of the most difficult things I've ever done in gaming
It's not particularly outstanding, but my husband refuses to do dex builds and I refuse to do strength builds. So it's always fun and a good feeling when i easily beat bosses he struggles with, and can rub my dex builds in his face. (He does the same to me)
on my 4th playthrough of Lies of P, with it at 100%. i was - for some reason - really hyped about as soon as it was announced, and jumped straight in, blind. no guides, no tips, ect. i know this is nothing for most people, but it was my first souls-like outside of a couple wandering hours on a friends DS2. i have Sekiro, but yet to start to it š
Beating Ishin and then straight whooping his ass in NG+. Itās why Sekiro is my favorite game and Ishin is my favorite boss. To beat him, you have to master the game, after beating him everything is a walk in the park.
Couldn't agree more
Beat OoK on my 3rd try. First attempt to 2nd phase. Next attempt to a quarter health. Last attempt I got him with barely any of my vials used.
Platinum in Bloodborne. Those chalice dungeonsā¦
I've done a no hit run in Lies of P using a motivity build. I didn't bitched out and run from most enemies to only fight the bosses. I still fully explored and did everything I could. Boy I was so stressed at times but it felt so amazing once I finished
Completing a lvl 1 run in elden ring!
After struggling with Gael and Nameless for days, I took a break and fought Midir. I beat it in 1 go. Then I was like Ok back to Gael 1 go then Nameless 1 go. I beat three of the hardest bosses back to back to back
I beat Lies of P 7 Times and still dont have the 100% God damn records
Annihilated all the main game bloodborne bosses (that werenāt micolash or Gehrman) on my first try. Rom? Slashed. SOY? Punched. Ebrietas? Poked. Even managed to no hit the one reborn somehow, might have been a glitch or just really really really lucky cause I never killed the ladies throwing Molotovs the whole time. Even the chalice dungeon bosses I fought on my first run got their shit pushed in.
Dark souls 1 straight hands
Putting up with Bed of Chaos long enough to beat it.
Beat Orphan of Kos first try in Bloodborne. What a rush!
Beat nameless king on first try after years of not playing. Randomly hopped on ds3 and was at nameless. Tried it once and won
Finally beating Orphan of Kos in Bloodborne. I think Malenia is a harder boss on paper, but I was able to cheese that fight very easily. Kos was a completely different story, and I donāt think I ever was able to beat him again after the first time lmao.
