DS3 SL1 RUN COOOOMMMMPLETE

As painful as some of the DLC bosses were, this run honestly wasn't as hellish as I was expecting? As usual, I didn't summon anyone to help with boss fights (though the temptation to summon Gael for Friede was strong... but I resisted!)

This run definitely wasn't easy, but I at least saw the finish line up ahead. I'd dare say some boss fights feel better when you fight them on SL1, but maybe that's just the adrenaline talking :'D That being said, idk what I'd do without embers for some of these bosses...

With the Souls series done (DeS, DS1, DS2, and now DS3), Bloodborne BL4 is next... oh sweet mother of mergo... that might end up waiting till 2027, both because there's a log of games I need to get through for the rest of this year + I think I need to mentally prepare for BL4 :'))

#dark souls #dark souls 3 #i have clips of the dlc bosses (except gravetender rip) if anyone (for some reason) needs proof that i fought without summons >:0 #then my fight of nameless king sl1 + no hit is somewhere on this blog!#i'm cooling down from this run with deltarune^^ i'm leaving to go home to texas in july #but when i get back from texas it's blood of dawnwalker + castlevania + duskbloods (hopefully). then back to texas again for christmas!#so y e a h i'm pretty booked for the rest of this year gaming wise ;-; so bl4 will prob have to wait till after #i am not consistent with how i draw my little rabbit self but tbf she is a cartoon and therefore defies logic #sl1 run #rabbit's doodles #rabbit's rambles

GUESS WHO COMPLETED A SL1 RUN IN DS1 FOR THE FIRST TIME !!!

It honestly wasn't that bad except for O&S phase 1 and Kalameet arghhh, but I still feel happy about it. My only rules were no leveling up, no summoning npcs/real people, and beat every boss in the game :) I might slowly tackle the other Souslborne games from here -- probably Demon's Souls next, since that should be the same difficulty as (if not easier than) DS1

((low quality doodles included because it was 1am when i finished the run and 1am is past my bedtime and my brain is definitely fried but body cannot sleep so it grabbed my tablet... present tense because i have been laying in bed for 5 hours after doodling and i still can't sleep... i'm realizing rn that i overdid artorias' dark eye circles lmao he's just like me fr in that regard))

#dark souls #dark souls 1 #i named him “papa” as in the (latin american) spanish word for potato >:0 but it works as father too tbh aha #i'm +2 in the darkwraith covenant bc i had a bunch of humanity by the end of the run that i wasn't gonna use lol #pyromancy is really broken in this game (at least in ng). i was surprised even manus and gwyn could be cooked like rotisserie chickens loll #i was like “i won't parry gwyn” but then cooked him with fire just as easily as it would've been if i parried rip #sl1 run #rabbit's doodles #rabbit's rambles

OOP GUESS WHO FINISHED A DS2 SL1 RUN LAST NIGHT !!!!

Yes, you WILL look at all my boss souls (and flower skirt, since gank squad doesn't drop any souls lol). Honestly, so long as you've got patience and the right equipment/items, a DS2 SL1 run isn't terrible for the most part, but there were certain parts that I never want to do again (those being Throne Watcher/Defender, Ivory King's charred knights, Iron Passage, and Frigid Outskirts 🥲). But I also got Sir Alonne to do his seppuku move on this run (which I've never done before, so it was weird that it happened on the SL1 run), so there's that!

Still, DS2's SL1 was definitely a jump in difficulty from DS1 and DeS, so I think I'll cool down with some of the Castlevania games (at the very least I'll do Symphony of the Night :>) until I feel refreshed for a DS3 SL1 run^^

#dark souls #dark souls 2 #i would upload the sir alonne seppuku clip but idk how tumblrs gonna react to that #hollow saw the footage for herself tho so she can back me up #castlevania sounds like a good break from soulsborne challenge runs #and there's a new castlevania coming this year so i gotta get in the mood for that now!!!#sl1 run #rabbit's rambles #rabbit's doodles

Tumblr is back -- who wants a meme I whirled together??

I forgot to make a post last month that I finished my SL1 run of Demon's Souls (tbf it wasn't too different from a normal DeS playthrough), but I feel like me forgetting is symbolic of how most Soulsborne folks don't talk about Demon's Souls
