Ok guys, so as you know, I'm somewhat of a Dark Souls fanatic. I was thinking about doing a Dark Souls Let's Play/Walkthrough to celebrate the upcoming Dark Souls 2. Now, first question: If I do this, will anyone watch it? Because I've made a tonne of video content lately and no one watches it. That could be because you aren't interested, because I have a shit voice, or because I'm not entertaining enough. Whatever. I think this would be more entertaining than my usual videos because I know the game so well that I can give a decent commentary and advice, as well as have some fun.
Also, as some of you may have noticed, I wrote a blog earlier today saying I was leaving. I was in a shit mood, I should have known it wouldn't have lasted and I shouldn't have made the blog.
Anyway, what do you guys think?
I'm sure there's nothing wrong with your videos, I just don't watch a lot of videos on the web. I don't even watch TV, except for football. I have a shitty attention span and can't really focus on anything that long. I have a hard time playing games I'm supposed to be reviewing for that reason.
So I'm sorry I haven't watched your videos so far.
Yeah, we all get in shitty moods sometimes. Don't worry about it.
That's ok and perectly understandable. I used to be like that too.
I have watched one or two of your videos in the past and liked them. It's not normally something I do, though, so I don't do it much. I'm an old man so when I'm watching someone play a game in a video I keep thinking I should be playing a game instead. Seems like there is a lot of interest in DS2, so I would guess people will watch, but what do I know?
No worries on the rage quit. I read it and didn't respond since I was also in a terrible mood at the time. It happens.
Yeah, I just woke up shitty, but oh well. I deleted it ASAP to try and do damage control.
And yeah, I know that feeling. That's why I've been trying to cover abstract games, or newer titles that people may not have tried yet.
Dark Souls? Hell yea!!!
You should try to go for an obscure build though..
Like using Fist-Based weapons (Cestuses, Claws, etc.), that would be awesome!
Yeah, I might do that, make it a bit more challenging :) I was going to try a class I hadn't tried before, and I was definitely not going to use any exploits (like the drake sword or the easy farming).
You should try an enchanting fist-build.
Use a fist weapon and enchant it as a faith build. That would be interesting to see!
Dude, I've never even used a faith build! I'm going to get massacred! This could be a hell of a lot of fun!
Faith Builds aren't too shabby. They're more about buffing and creating space between you and your enemy, so they're a lot of fun! Especially with PVP!
Fair enough. Unfortunately if I do the Dark Souls LP it'll have to be singleplayer. The only recording software I have is for pc, which uses Games For Windows Live, which is the worst fucking thing ever invented. It sucks, but it's the best I can do.
I'm thinking of doing a boxing style build like you mentioned, focusing on fists and fist weapons. I'm going to use pyromancy as well as it's sort of fist based.
I might actually be willing to watch video content for that because that sounds awesome.
I would watch, but I have a very short attention span when it comes to watching videos on the internet. I loved the one that I did watch, you are highly entertaining to listen to.
Thanks Tami, and I understand. I used to be like that too :)
I'll watch Dark Souls 2 stuff for sure. I usually don't watch anything for more than 5 or 10 minutes though on the interwebs. Trailer length stuff is my personal sweet spot.
I'm a Let's Play fan and I am absolutely loving Dark Souls, so I would absolutely watch! It's always fun to watch someone who really knows the in's and out's do a Let's Play - great way to learn and pick up tips!
Ok, well I'm planning on doing a fist weapons only build.
As your videos has shown, you are good doing commentary while playing, so I say go for it.
Thanks! I shall then :)
I'd be up for a Let's Play on Dark Souls. Of course, I've already played it, but I've enjoyed your other videos in the past.
Chris and I will be playing through the Dark Souls II beta come tomorrow, so we should also be doing some official DS coverage for the site. I'll be sure to give your vids a shout-out if you do wind up creating them!
Thanks! I'll be looking forward to your dark souls II beta impressions!
And yeah, the plans are for a fist weapons build, with no shields or normal weapons, and only pyromancy for magic... should be fun.
