*created with insane detail* It's community begs to differ, if the leaks are anything to go by😂
i love how your interaction with true king allant just felt like the epitome of the last step before a true mental breakdown which im sure we'll see in the next knife only challenge run... i both pray for your sanity and also CANT WAIT to see that breaking point and the warcrimes your gonna haveta commit to restore your sanity XD
You have lured that knight off an edge so much you deserve an honorary Ph.D from the school of Patches
Someone should patch in “Ergh, that was uncharitably done!” for future recaps of this legendary run; just as the knight hits the ground?
This should be a trophy in a souls game
Knight to JK: I'm not falling for it this time for def! (knight charges off ledge to his death)
A patch of honor.
Msc maybe, as he only lured it imstead of kicking.
Have to admire the dedication, as always. This run took so long it could’ve started telling its own dad jokes
that was a very knife run, good sir. loved it. as a student of the firebomb academy it fills me with joy to see the throwing knife academy stay strong.
The poison only academy both recognizes and salutes your efforts and endeavors!
Now I want a collab with JK and backlogs
I'm amazed that you didn't give in and dupe the throwing knives earlier, which would have been totally fair, if you ask me. Luckily, Elden Ring should be a lot easier, kukris actually do pretty good damage, they scale, and they cause bleed. It's one of the easiest ways I've found to fight Lansseax on all bosses runs.
Thanks for sharing your actual irl strategy for collecting throwing knives. A lot of runners just say that something presumably will take ages to get through, and then smash cut to it being finished
Mandatory actions should never count against challenge runs. The game forced your hand into using something other than throwing knives.
With stuff like that knife farm I think it’s completely reasonable to just dupe or cheat in max knives. I don’t think anyone wants you to farm for weeks and weeks on end for the sake of authenticity. Just proving that getting the knives legit is possible is enough.
I think i would have quit this run 15 times over just from the starting area. I cant believe how much dedication you have for all of this. This vid deserves every view it gets and likely so much more for all the suffering that you went through for those damn knifes :v
Knife to meet you Looks like JK is going back to the classic of his throwing knife academy, and it means Firebomb academy is getting a worthy opponent.
They should do a pvp match to determine which is best
@@Blandy8521 Agreed it would the battle of the century
a worthy partner more likely. Let's not divide over the choice of consumable
If it was me, I would skip any farming and just cheat stuff in, or ask other people to help. After all, it is possible to get 99 throwing knives by farming, so it is possible, even if you don’t do the farming yourself.
Yeah i agree Or use duplication glitches on souls and use them only to buy consumables
I would just give up.
You can't get any help before you beat the 1st boss tho
The pain struggle adds to the story
@@andnl9819it just makes it tedious and slow, I'd rather see the boss fights and exciting parts, rather than "and I went through the slow part again"
Fun fact: Bluepoint removed the duplication glitch just to make JK suffer doing knife farming Also I already couldn't believe that it was possible to turn Adjudicator into an obstacle, but here you demonstrate how you can even turn true king Allant into one.
That's the true goal of our challenge runs: to make normally easy bosses into traumatic experiences!
The amount of work you put into this run is astounding. mad respect dude. i would have NEVER done this. i love the souls games to death but your a mad man ( in a good way ). incredible
Whats your favorite challenge run that you've did?
Not this one
@@JKLeeds Fr
Probably claws lol
You have the patience of a monk. I would've started using cheats to spawn the daggers at the Phalanx fight XD
I feel like just the challenge itself is hard enough, so farming souls which is just an easily repeated tedious task could have been replaced with duping, modding, etc.
Well, correct me if I`m wrong but I think you can farm those stealth knives in a relatively easy manner. Kill those ninja guys that drop the daggers by luring them to the fire downstairs and make them commit suicide, you can actually grab the items they drop. I think I used that trick to farm some white herbs when I played the game. Although it was in the original demon souls not the remake so idk. Btw, congrats this is an amazing video.
Yeah it was more the time it would take, it's a bit of a run to even get to them and luring them down to that flaming ball is inconsistent at best. Farming 99 would have taken a really long time that to be honest I was not prepared to put into this given how long it had taken already. Glad you liked the video 🙂
Fair play dude, that’s an incredible commitment to a run!
Thank you!
Finally, FINALLY I can watch this video! Great run! That grind at the beginning looked like absolute hell, also the sobbing 'I was free!' line, that's a big mood lol
Glad you finally got to see all this bullshit 🤣
My favorite Soulsbourne KZheadr uploading a video about my favorite Soulsbourne game on my birthday?! What a great day!😊
Happy birthday my dude!
@@JKLeeds Thanks man
I love how "proof of a hero" plays when you thank doomwolf, great choice!
Congrats on the journey lad. I look forward to more of your interesting challenge videos. I'm already doing one based on your Ng, ng+, ng++ runs with sorceries, but I did a random selection of weapons and got daggers, whips, then halberds. Good luck to you in the future.
‘...Hall & Oates are out of touch.’ Excellent. Just excellent.
Honestly, mad props for not just using the storage dupe. I don't actually know if it's possible for the remake, but in the original you can just duplicate 99 of any item you want with stockpile thomas and the blacksmith.
great video as always mr leeds, i truly appreciate and applaud your effort and dedication. bravo.
I can not believe your determination! Fantastic video.
You determination is par to none. It is awful when gaming becomes a mindless job, so I hope you find joy in your following videos. You're a legend, man
Loser Challenge Runners: I spawned 1000 knives so this was possible! Chad JKLeeds: I spent 2 months getting the required knives by an insanely low drop rate
Your therapist will have to put in extra hours after this XD Anyway your magic video inspired me to make this challenge myself (on three characters cause i'm pretty bad)
Oh boy, i found you just two days ago and watched your challenge runs, hopping to get more. And here we go. ^^
I just found your channel a little under a week ago. I after watching this video you convinced me. You're definitely one of the real ones.
You’re such a legend my guy, I’ve done many challenges in demons souls but oml that’s just too much for me lol
Well done you crazy bastard. I would've probably thrown in the towel the moment I realized that I can't buy the knives right off the bat and had to farm them from the knight like a madman. Thank god for people like you so I don't have to do things like this challenge myself and no innocent controllers get hurt in the process.
Insane dedication. You're a legend!
Wow, what dedication. On the bright side, if you want to try such a run in the new lords of the fallen, you're in for a cake walk :)
I hear you low-key Banjo Tooie music ❤ Great puns too. You got yourself a sub
I enjoy grinding but no chance in hell i would grind out that knight for months. I tip my hat to you sir. You deserve a medal 😊
I can't believe you reminded me how great a song Riders on the Storm is with that joke. Good on ya
Dude… I would have absolutely accepted a start with 999 knives. After your explanation of where they could be bought I thought “Ok, he can just cheat some in to start” and then you kept talking… and kept going… and kept grinding… the dedication of this man!
Amazing run! I honestly don't mind if you do workarounds like dagger stabbing the Phalanx. It's just as interesting to see what isn't possible as what is possible.
Absolutely respect the dedication to make this run as authentic as possible But for the future, I don’t think any of us would be less entertained with you not farming your sanity away in other runs
Love the music! Soulslike with monster hunter music 😍
This exact run might actually be fun in Elden Ring. It has so many different throwing knife items, and before anyone asks; yes bone darts count as throwing knives.
Elden ring consumables are literally op compared to any other souls games, many different variations, scaling up with stats and there are millions of different buffs that work.
As someone who has done a consumable only run of DS2 I honestly can't imagine limiting myself to only Throwing Knives in any game where they're worse than they are in DS2. The animation speed combined with the low damage would be infuriating to deal with and I simply don't have the patience for something like that. Hats off to you for enduring challenge runs like this.
The legendary knife master is back with another crazy run!😂
You've got a horrible skill in making me cringe with the bad jokes. I love it. Keep it up.
outstanding skeleton! you are in another league! those stealth knives really tripped you up huh? XD
This man is my hero! Favorite KZheadr
A good video (my sympathies for your self inflicted suffering) and another youtuber to check out. You sir, are a hero too.
You've already thrown your knife into my heart. And the friends we've made along the way...
Your mental strength is amazing to survive this much farming
I dont often see Demon's Souls challenges. Awesome.
I salute you sir. No way I'd have the patience to try what you achieved. Well done.
Wow, you didn't even mention it, but you had 2 knives remaining for Phalanx.
Do you... do you need a hug? some snacks? therapeutic recommendations? Absolutely amazing run and I'm so impressed just by how you *start* shit like this. Fantastic work!
Oh boy, here come the next installation of JK Leeds grinding his own sanity to fine dust then blow it through the last Hell Gate into Oblivion. Thank you for your sacrifice.
I just beat Demon’s souls for the first time so now I can watch this :)
You really put great effort into this run!
Your dedication is unmatched my friend 👏👏
I hear that Shadow Man theme during the Phalanx fight, incredible game if you can put up with the clunk.
Spent A LOT of time playing that game when I was younger. Some really dark imagery for an N64 game
Ive never seen a souls created character look like hes filled with existential dread
Yes Demon's Souls challange
i mean the run is valid, phalanx couldve been free with just the starting dagger in my opinion due to the other games needing the starting bosses killed without throwing knives
The Monster Hunter theme was a perfect choice for the "I may be able to do this" moment after the Stealth Knife revelation 😂
25:22 my 10-month old daughter has that same controller toy in pink 😅😂 But damn, can’t wait for the next installment, hopefully it won’t be as crazy as this one was.
Technically you DID kill the Phalanx goons with a throwing knife, you just didn't throw it to kill them. It's all about finding the loopholes in a challenge.
great job! now, try this without save states :D
that was maddening, but im surprised it was more viable than in DS1. keep those knives sharpened!
A Doors and cheech/Chong reference, you sir are truly a gentleman and scholar
This is insane
Honestly if there is a way to farm/buy infinite knives I think its fair since arbitrarily farming for months for runs like these is soul crushing and if you dread the video itll def burn ya out
Truth be told, if I was given the chance to do it all over again..... .......I WOULDN'T CHANGE A GODDAMN THING 😈🤪😈🤪😈🤪
@@JKLeeds BRO IS THE TRUE DARK SOUL 💀🥳💀🥳
@@cthulhurage4580Suffering for humanity just as Gael did…
If you'd started this channel in the OG DeS, you could've easily dupe glitched the daggers and saved yourself all that wasted time farming for them.
That dragon god kill looks like it could be a speed run strat
Fetch the straitjacket Jeeves, I've gone stark mad.
On this challenge run? “The real Demon’s Souls begins here.”
I’ve beaten every boss first try so far on my Demons Souls play through including flame lurker
25:30 my kid also has that controller toy. It did not stop him from trying to grab mine :(
Same with mine 😂😂😂
Beans 🫘 😊
It looks possible, albeit painful, if only someone can mathematically solve that first boss. Cool vid.
Doom being the best noodle
20:14 - in the PS3 version, you could kill the first Maneater shooting him with a bow and poisoned arrows before crossing the fog wall. I don't know if it's still possible in the remake, nor if it's possible with kunai, but that cheese immediatelly came to mind.
you cant do it in the remake. at least not with a bow, ive never tried using throwing knives but its probably safe to assume it doesnt work either.
@@AutoZone0001 yeah, most likely not. You had to use a bow with long range in the first place (can't remember if I used the White or the Spider bow when I did it), and throwing would be pretty much free-aiming...
There’s also were very helpful item glitch in demon souls that you could’ve used to bypass the farming
This video gives me the weirdest sense of deja vu and I don’t know why
Application for this job is attached for the application form?
"Throwing Knife Academy" sounds a bit derivative, ya know? I motion that it be known as the "Ancient and Honorable Order of Chucksters".
25:50 hold up. Is that Proof of a hero playing in the background or are my ears deceiving me?
If he suffered a lot with DS1 i can't imagine how worse it was. Oh my god, it wasn't that bad as i expected, the worst part was the beggining.
storm king was always so weird to me its this giant flying monster that inexplicably has less hp than a random hobo we meet in a prison
You're going to start from the beginning? What a maniac Also can't you send items to stockpile Thomas from your inventory in this game? So you could just run to the merchant with a truckload of souls and send stacks and stacks back?
legend
Do you know the definition of insanity
Cant wait for him to do elden ring so he can at least have fun
Malenia wants to talk about about that "fun" thing you mentioned...
I'm picking up on the song title references... was "A Million Miles Away" an Offspring nod?
Poison is REALLY dumb OP in DeS. This is very similar to a poison cloud playthrough.
Seriously I think you can hack the throwing knife need. We would like to watch the exciting part and you have a life to.
SHADOWMAN THEME AT 7:11, LETS GOOOO!!!!
Take weapon an shield off and hit forward+light attack you can do a no damage fast headbutt that does knockback
3 out of 18 bosses heal. Yup, this game sure loves bosses that heal. A whopping 16.7%!!!
My child has that same "video game controller" toy 😂
I had that same experience w the dragon god
