A video in which I overpower a new level 1 character before even stepping foot in the Undead Burg. By taking a shortcut in the Catacombs, I was able to kill Pinwheel (with the assistance of Paladin Leeroy), obtain a family mask to help get me through the groups of angry skeletons, obtaining the Great Scythe, and ascending it to the Fire element. From title screen to the Fire ascended Great Scythe, it took just under ten and a half minutes.

As stated in the subtitles - I do not recommend beginners attempt this in the exact same way I did.

It's so weird to see Pinwheel living longer than 5 seconds

Why didn't the video stop after he chose pyro?

“I only add subtitles where I think they’re needed” I don’t know why I find that line so funny

He beat the undead asylum in less than 3 minutes. I was on PC and it took me more than 3 minutes just to figure out what button let me pick up the damn key from the corpse in my cell

I remember on one of my first playthroughs, I lucked out and got a black knight sword(not the greatsword) from like the very first black knight you encounter as you naturally progress through the areas. I think by the time I first met andre I had enough twinkling titanite to take it to +3 pretty much by the time I had the stats to use it effectively and yeah that definitely felt overpowered lol. Didn't mind it one bit though. I need to play through Dark Souls 1 again, it's been too long.

Keep in mind that all of this works in the remastered, but don't use the bonfire at Vamos or you'll be stuck dealing with the wheel skeletons.

As someone who just started Dark Souls, I thought your run was incredible. I may not try this right now but thank you for the video

ahhh dark souls. This game literally saved my life. I was super depressed in 2011 and if not for this game giving me escape I don't think I would have made it out.
