A cartoon parody by Matthew Shezmen
Hey guys! The TRAILER for the DORK SOULS 3 Sequel is finally here, you can check it out at this link! Cheers. kzhead.info/sun/Z7VtYZFpj4Wba30/bejne.html
Matthew Shezmen NOICE
I come rewatch this for the first time in like six months and there's this beautiful announcement. Brb, I'll be in my bunk.
YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ı just wanted to watch old animations ı watched earlier and boom new one is coming ı hope it is gona be good as this one (=
Matthew Shezmen you deserve it bro (y)
Holy shit a 25 minute animation? As a retired animator, you're a fucking madman and god among men.
Indeimaus Yes, Indeed
Indeimaus wow indeimouse is here :D
*cough top ten dark souls animations *cough
holy shit it's maus
Woah guys its maus
The Holy Trinity: > Dark Souls: In Summary > Happy Souls > Dork Souls 3
Truly the Gwyn, Nido, and Witch of Souls animations. Happy Souls gets Nido because the creator hasn't uploaded anything in like 500 years at this point.
@@SinHurr you might want to look at the happy souls guys channel
I prefer dark sauce over in summary, the flash animation and circle tools are just perfect
Dark Sauce too xD

"He's gonna totally bail at Abyss Watchers" DAMN I DID IT EVENTUALLY. DAMN.
Good job. Skeleton.
Well, you used to be an adventurer like me. Then you took an arrow to your knee.
hey.. I know who you are… Hail Sithis
I almost quit but didn’t give up
First time playing I quit on gundyr 💀then I had someone show me how to play and watching someone else play got me astronomically better
As someone who started with dark souls 3 I can confirm this is an accurate playthrough of what happened

For fucking real
This game main story is like 2 lines

Iron Pineapple Are you the REAL Iron Pineapple?
George McFarland idiot
Iron Pineapple holy shit it's iron pineapple!!! I want some more dark souls troll videos NOW!!!....please
Sam Sherlow you're the idiot for not understanding the joke. Watch his "For honour: No honour" video
A few times : ^ )
I just realized: him leveling luck saved him on multiple occasions. Siegward was luckily there to make soup with the dragon slayer armor, Ocelot showed up out of nowhere, and his ploy worked on the red eyed liturgical knights. Most of his victories were luck that never would have come about without it

Except in champion mode 😂
I'm literally just downloading dark souls 2 on the ps4 and I see this sooo Thank you for the unintended advice
"The lords of Cinder are being a bunch of little sissies and they won't sit on their thrones"

I got to beat them today! The farron greatsword is just amazing. It's the first time i'm playing a souls game and i'm simply in love with it.
Surprisingly, I beat them in less than 30 minutes.
You and me, we are the same
I seriously struggled to beat the first boss, so just thinking about what Abyss Watchers could mean is giving me anxiety
@@misty5015 It varies from person to person, the Crystal Sage gave me more trouble than the Abyss Watchers did. It's tough, but fair, since they're melee centric enemies.

Can’t believe there are people who act over excited in front of a camera while playing games, get paid more than people who make huge animations
I guess its about quantity over quality .
Yep.
What a major mystery, I wonder if it has to do with how different age groups have different amounts of free time
animations just take too much effort
I guess you could say that, the same way you can say there are people who waste their time in a really ineficient way to make money: animation
Man, I have watched this a dozen times, how am I still noticing new things, and laughing at the jokes? I wish you made an entire animated tv show… I would so be in for that.
I swear the character creation screen is so relatable. One minute your just messing with the hair the next is your pissed because the face doesn't fit the hair you like😂
They’ve never made a slightly realistic black person in their Souls games, come on, Japan.
Animators get nothing on youtube these days, and still you make a 25 min long video. Job well done
True dude. Thanks!
Matthew Shezmen yeah animators work months upon months for just a few million while youtubers get that million with simple clickbait and 2 minute react videos...
thats what im sayin......gaydiepie just makes a 1 minute video sayin cock dick jo mama...and voila...5mln...
the hell are you guys on about? most youtubers need to work their asses of for their money.
RandomHypocrite oh please most youtubers work less than the average persons work hours, animation itself is hard, making clean animation of this length is far harder than just about 90% of what youtubers do
Not bad for a character that never upgraded their equipment or leveled up.

This video is a masterpiece! So much effort and detail! GREAT JOB! I watched it while doing my first playthrough and I waited to watch before I did the bosses, then I watched the scene you made with the boss! Great video keep it up!
I know, I’m late, but this series is the most accurate representation of this game. Great job Shez! :)
I like the added touch where characters doesn't move there mouths with the exception of the blacksmith who actually does for some reason.
;)
I saw that too
It's a reference to Dark Souls 1. Andre was originally going to be a more central character, so they gave him more complex animation. That story was scrapped, but they didn't want to throw out a finished animation, so they kept it. Repeating that in DS3 is just fanservice, but then again, so is Andre being there at all. Fun fact: Andre was *not* the only character in DS1 with a moving mouth, the Daughter of Chaos also had a speaking animation. If you managed to get your eyes up to her face, that is.
Not sure that's a reference, but I know what you mean.
Reference, homage, tribute, fanservice, callback, inside joke... whatever you want to call it.
this is the most positive comment section I've ever seen
Love you lad who made this
Robin Best have a wonderful life
Iain Hansen
+Robin Best Yeah, the animation quality is outstanding. Now all he has to do is make it funny.
Burni O wow you're the first comment that's negative. Kinda sad. I guess that's just KZhead comments though.
Dude the addiction afterwards is so real. I just picked up the souls series last year it consumed me. So much fun.
I come back to this video at least one a month, and the “Here’s your kindle” line gets me every single time
“Welcome home Ashen One, I’m a fire keeper. Before taking this job I was a character from Dead or Alive.” I’m dying 😂
whats that even mean? I miss the joke

@@nedlan1857 it’s because Kasumi from DOA looks a lot like the fire keeper.

Dude this is so accurate! I watched the whole 25 mins, its a masterpiece!
My first souls game was dark souls three. I had my friend help me through the game. And when I mean help he did everything for me. I was too terrified to even try and kill the mobs. My friend did a lot of good things to help me out but a big negative he taught me was to hate invaders. Of course at that time I couldn’t defend myself so I was really on board on the hate train. Eventually after a year my friends stop playing any kind of souls game. So I replay dark souls three by myself and then moved over to the original dark souls, which I had difficulty because the game flowed less. But the story was amazing. I started PVP in the original dark souls. I was horrible at it but I still enjoyed it. Then I tried out dark souls two and man I have a love-hate relationship with that game. I even tried PVP but I constantly got hacked. So I never really touched the game after that. Over my years of playing I’ll found a lot of enjoyment helping other people in the form of a spirit. which then later turned into cosplay. Ever since Eldon ring came out I’ve devoted my life to this game. can’t say the PVP was really good when the game came out but it’s much more bearable now. Anyway I rambled for too long. I enjoyed the blast from the past. Every time I rewatch it there’s something else I didn’t see before. I quite enjoy that. Anyway going to move To the DLC video you made.
Silver Knight: "You know I'm not dead right?" That brings back memories.. it's also accurate lmao.
Yeah I think he just missed that umbrella coming your way just after you finished the animation XD
Me: You know im not done yet, right?
1:17 when people ask matthew if he really made an 25 minute animation
XD
Meanwhile some shit top ten video with 10 minutes of prep gets the same amount of views. KZhead is the Darksouls for animators.
Lolz and just drawing is hard but in a computer...u crazy I mean the mouse is just sooo baad how do u draw with a mouse...wait...do u guys use a mouse or wht u use???

Hehe no no :) i use a monitor tablet. I draw on the screen. It needs some time to get used to it though!

What's up guys, Shez here. I hope you will have a good time watching my video. These last 5 months were not always a fun ride for me: just two days ago, my grandma has passed away after getting sick last November. Seeing her in that situation getting worse as time went on, while I was working on average 11 hours a day to get this done, was a tough one. I just hope this animation will bring you some joy, thank you for watching. Love you guys.
Matthew Shezmen im so sorry for your loss good job on the parody though :D although i do believe its time Adam Jensen gets his second chance in a Deus Ex Mankind Divided parody. that is if your interested in doing that. like i said i am truly sorry for your loss i hope you feel better soon. ^^ keep up the amazing work.

Here's a summary of all the Easter eggs I found in this video. Tell me if I missed any. Thanks for all the responses guys. I read through all the replies over the years and have spent a good 4-5 hours on this. The level of easter eggs and detail is just shocking. I think this is pretty much all of it though. Thanks to people in general for making this such a great community! 0:05 a GameCube 0:06 a bottle of Nuka cola (fallout series) and a pun on the drink Sprite with Ryu from street fighter on the front. 0:10 if you didn't figure this out game'sCock is GameStop. 0:30 Vogue one a pun based off Star Wars: rogue one just changing it based on the line of Beauty products vogue. A plant monster that appeared in lots of Mario games (Called Piranha Plant). Last of all a sort of robot arm that I couldn't really recognise but I think it might be the synthetic arm that big boss uses in MGSV TPP 0:40 the cake of lies from Portal 3:12 the message is "treasure ahead" written in elvish which is probably a LOTR reference 0:50 a portrait of Dio from JoJos bizarre adventure part 3 using the purple hermit ability 0:59 both of those helmets were used heavily in the marketing campaigns in both games and were on the covers too 1:34 I think the pudding of the lords is a joke based on Aldrich being sludge in the opening cutscene 2:00 you can see that one meme Pepe looking sad proably referencing the uselessness and disappointment of the stat as a whole. 2:29 Conan O'Brien much 3:00 roughly multiple things that I could explain but I'll only explain the less obvious ones that I get konami, in the top right the Wii U, mighty no.9 and a part of Michael jacksons thriller was playing. (Edit) you can see a skeleton that bears a striking resemblance to Geralt (except that he's a skeleton of course) in the background (Edit 2) There's a headstone for Simon Belmont the protagonist of Castlevania (This likely references the death of the series) 3:50 a mega man hat (pretty obvious) 3:53 primordial serpents instead of snakes on the ambulance (one of my personal favourites) 4:00 The emerald herald (excuse my memory if that's incorrect and mentos for whatever reason (they probably have something to do with the food them of this video. 4:13 I don't know why but that face on his shoulder reminds me of those weird cat people from undertale 4:17 the fathers mask aka the mask of MLG 5:00 the merchant from resident evil 4+Illuminati! 5:05 a PlayStation VR for whatever reason 5:26 I love this shot. We've got the helmet from the main armour in demon souls at the left we have the buster sword FF7 and last of all the master sword from the legend of self-explaining series 5:57 the hollow looks like Nemesis from RE3 6:00 here we have a messenger from bloodborne in the bowl 6:02 WACKY WAVING INFLATABLE ARM FLAILING TUBE MAN! 6:04 Danger Zone from Top Gun starts playing (or something that sounds very similar) 6:15 that armour next to him feels familiar but I can't quite put my finger on it (WAIT A GOSHDARN MINUTE!

Look up a ds3 speedrun with glitches for more info. 16:03 I do not know what that thing is (not really an easter egg) 16:07 the tattoo at the top right is the hunter rune from bloodborne and the one at the bottom left is the mark of the Outsider from the dishonoured series. The AD at the bottom right is from Bioshock Infinite and the Chain is from Bioshock 1. The top left symbol is a generic peace sign 16:08 "Sweet tats!" voice line may be a far cry 3 reference 16:27 I can't put any specifics one what these are from but a shovel possibly from shove knight, a (magic) lamp possibly from Aladdin, a trident (from Undertale(Asgores weapons)) and a golden great hammer/axe 16:36 probably a reference to Gwynns daughter Gwynevere 16:37 King Vendrick from dark souls 2 16:47 A reference to real life Church signs (since Pontiffs boss room is a church) 16:54 the star on it is probably captain Americas shield 17:38 A bucket used to steal from people in Skyrim (hinting at Patches' dishonest nature) 17:55 Jon snow from game of thrones 17:57 it's a invader posing as guts from berserk 18:03 that's a red eye orb which due to the shape of the tower on which it stands is most likely a reference to Saurons tower in Lord of the rings 18:14 Facehugger egg statue from Alien 18:16 a reference the the crow who carries you to Lordran in the first game plus an alien egg on the rail 18:26 Top skull on Aldrichs blobby body is Sachiels mask from Neon Genesis Evangelion 18:31 Aldrichs spear looks like the lance of longinus from Neon Genesis Evangelion (double whammy) 18:40 coca cola for some reason (likely referencing a "beer can texture" from Grave of Saints in DS2 19:25 a reference to Seath the scaleless from dark souls 1 19:28 a reference to the invisible baby from JoJos bizarre adventure part 4 19:33 it's revolver ocelot fromm metal gear solid 20:12 a cooked chicken in the back. what a castlevania reference 21:02 Candle scholars make the Metal Gear Solid alert sound effect 21:05 the books on the outsides are references to Aldias and the Pthumerians (with the Pthumerian book having the insight logo from BB on it) from bloodborne. The one in the middle has LR.R. Tolkien on it (the writer of Lord of the Rings) 21:21 an eye on the window from the last guardian 21:28 People suggested that the Pilgrim Butterfly parody at the top left is a mario pipe. I think it's just a plant pot 21:55 the banner at the back is the logo/sign of the music artist prince 22:05 deeper than the darkest holes (I'm sorry) 22:08 Artorias ring is a ring from dark souls 1 that you need to fight the four kings boss without sinking in to the Abyss 22:32 dragonslayer Ornstein from dark souls 1 in the bottom left 22:38 I'm pretty sure that's an inception reference 22:55 he used instant transmission from dragonball 23:07 GWYNNN! Plus this is so a reference to Jojos bizarre adventure this entire scene is an anime reference. 23:15 A matrix reference with the hand motion 23:25 it's soul edge from the soul calibur series (the blade with the eye) 24:00 you can see your ascended character from bloodbornes good ending 24:06 it's the PC master race mascot on his tower 24:15 I see him editing the video Dumb which leads me to believe you got this game as a birthday present Matthew plus Game grumps in the top left (WTF did I mean?) 24:35 steamed=steam and a half life 3 reference I spent about two hours making this list off memory so I would really appreciate if you would like this comment have a nice day and I hope you enjoyed the new video from Matthew cause I certainly did.

The lonely Otaku cool list what you've got there mate, but ive found three mistakes i recognise, first is at 6.00 where its a messenger from bloodborne; and then its a tonsil stone from borne as well at 7.20. Also at 12.30~ the dead spider with skull is probably reference to patches from bloodborne (he is a spider with human head there, spooky scary)

Brilliantly and cleverly compiled - had me in stitches ( of laughter as opposed to the stitches acquired in the course of the game! ) Bravo.
Been a fan for a long while, and a few other influences have pushed me into finally completing Bloodborne and it's trophies yes..all of the them and it's DLC... I now toss my hat into the Ring like you did wish me luck and Merry Christmas my fellow Ashen One!
HAHAHA the screaming sword and shield made me lose it XD
Also the sweet tattoos! ;D Great job man you made such a great work with your voice! ;) Kudos.
Chad Fischer Lol cause NO body messed those crab at all for their 1st play though and those who did soon regretted it and stayed the Fuck out of the water.....Also they would most likely get invaded over and over again so they had no time for them butter crab-leg.
Well, actually...on my first play through I played without using Embers...and I killed all of those crabs...
Lmao True. But i'm also talking about those ppl who NEVER played a dark souls, demon souls, Bloodborne or any Dark Souls like game EVER (I once let my 100% newbie friend play DS3 and she couldn't get pass that area at all. The part that finally Broke her was when when she was stupid close to killing a crab and out of nowhere an invader put an arrow in her back which caused her to be interrupted and she got grabbed by the crab.......I've never seen her rage like that ever. After she raged, she put her head in my pillow and just cried and laughed at the same time(happens to all games at some point) after 5 minutes she wanted to play again and she beat the crystal mage)
She did pretty well for someone who was playing for their first time, then. When I first started on Dark Souls 2, I will admit I had a little bit of trouble when I first started, but after the tutorial level, I knew what I was doing. After that, it was a matter of not making stupid choices and following my instincts and judgement in the middle of combat. Once you get used to the game, it's easier and is more fun, even if it does take someone a while to get used to the game.

That and the picture of Dio when his friends try to get him to play 1!!!
the easter eggs! my god the easter eggs. incredible work! i'm still laughing at the konami grave, you sir may just be the best animator i've seen on youtube not only is this insanely animated but it was funny as hell.
Wow that's really nice dude, thank you so much! ^^
You're most welcome bro you earned this, take note KZhead this is what you should be recommending people. I eagerly await your next upload :)
Jameswhite201989 omg I know right! After all the time in development it was worth it, and it was hilarious!! My favorite was the instant transmission at the end, lol
Jameswhite201989 I loved the Easter eggs! I especially loved the Ocelot part lol!
Jameswhite201989 I was enjoying the soul edge at the end.
i love all of the background details you notice on second or third viewings, like the okudama when he first meets anri and horace, the faces on things like gundyr’s left pauldron and the fire keeper’s eye mask thing
I forever am thankful if this video getting me into the dark souls games
“Trust me, he’s gonna bail out on the Abyss Watchers, if not sooner. 100%, we are wasting our money.”
He got to Ariandel and Ringed City lol they were wrong.
Yo I bought my friend this though and he didn't even make it to abyss watchers before he uninstalled it because it was quote: "too hard"
Bennet Russell bruh I finished the game and killed every boss except Midir. *Weaklings die, big deal.*
Wait people had trouble with the abyss watchers?
@@snxffys6436 no they couldn't get past the first boss without ur help and gave up before getting past the swamp crabs🤣
yhorm and his comically large spoon
Only a flameful **comically large flame**
Should have been golden
Absolutely love the dancing Soul of Cinders moment plus the Nameless king at the end
The passion that you put into this animation reminds me of my first dark souls three play through it’s my favorite of the soul series and you did a great job of parodying it 👍
So I ended up getting dark souls 3 for the sole purpose of watching this and understanding it...... WORTH IT!!!!!
\o/ It makes me so happy that stuff like this happens. Cheers dude! ^^
Matthew Shezmen yeah I just finished souls 3 and now I'm starting souls 2. Thanks for your content. Hopefully bloodborne is next in line xD
Matthew Shezmen this is how I feel abt Skyrim on legendary I get killed by every fuckin animal in the woods
Classinbound same.
Classinbound You won't understand the last reference until ds1 then :v
IF i'll do a cartoon about the DLCs guys, my character is gonna get F*CKED like you have NO-IDEA. We are gonna have lots of fun... ; )
Sounds great, awesome vid btw
Love the video can't wait if you do make a dlc edition
Matthew Shezmen yes!!! plzz do!!
That would be funny. I had a hard time with Asses of Ariandel.
You did a good job, thank you.
6:14 Hahahaha... oh man... that's golden.
This is SO good. The last laugh was so wierd as well as hilarious 😄👍
The abyss watchers “you’re lucky we spared you the second phase” XD LMAOOOO I beat that yesterday and let me tell you he is very lucky haha
i just stun locked him with the claymor
@@notarussianspy3457 praise the poise
Wym lucky? I usually no hit run abyss watchers they're easy to combo bait
@@Kat-yt6pf yeah well only if ppl knew how to first try
KATCIT I wonder how far he made it if he struggled with abyss watchers
I have never seen your animations before, so when I saw the video length I was expecting some rushed hack-job shite, BUT I WAS TOTALLY WRONG! This was great! The jokes were funny and insightful, the voice acting good and you got the characters' appearences on point. Animation might have been a bit still, but it worked well, mostly because you put so many nice details and easter eggs into the scenery. Great Job!
That's awesome dude thank you!
waffleless I thought the animation was great, but the writing wasn't on the same level.
Is that Attack on Titan music in the Vordt scene?
very insightful! I never realized that you could combine the giant oreo with the C4 and feed it to Aldrich.
The animation was good but a lot of the dialogue was just stupid
love this video so much! I watched it many times over the last few years
This has to be the BEST animation i've ever seen, allí was perfect: the jokes, the music, the animation Perfectly done!!!
That fucking AWESOME dark souls animation !!!! Good job duuude!
Thanks dude ^^!!!
Spot-on. Best DS3 parody. You essentially captured the essence of the game. Good job man. 10/10
Yo dude thank you so much! :)
I've played all 3 Dark Souls games and i want to thank you Matthew for the laughs and for your great work 👍
23:27 I love the references you put in, the Miasma from fear and hunger. The stormlight archive tattoo in the dungeons of irithyll. You make hilarious videos, and I am only starting to notice these references years after the video has come out! Thank you for your awesome videos!
The length and quality of the animation in this is nuts 10/10 Shame the jokes were hit or miss.
CmcLoudMouth In all honestly, I think 25 min of this quality animation ist kind of a waste without a good writter. The whole "hahaha Dark Souls ist so hard" premise is kind of overused in the first place.
Yeah, real shame, all that time spent on animation, but with a weak story and sub-par voice acting really seems like a total waste.
KahlevN let's see u do better
TheBassPhenomenon Sad that dark sauce kinda just ended. I don't think the guy ever actually animated through the whole game.
KahlevN So basically you are saying that dark souls 3 has a weak story?
I remember making friends with the giant on one of my early playthroughs that bastard still shot me in the back at the cathedral. I've never trusted him since
If you use or lose the white branch he gave you he will shoot at you again
I just kill him every time
@@NickO.-uz1re You're a monster.
@@bluethunderbolt9631 I agree!
I thought after you make peace, the arrows stop doing damage?
Amazing work! Thank you for you hard work!
This has inspired me to play DS again. Many thanks Shez!
There are two types of dark souls players: Casuals and Masochists. Nothing more , nothing less.
Corporate wants you to find the difference between casuals and masochists Dark souls players. They're the same
The Masochists are the ones who play the game all the way through : ^) and still buy the dlc
*O N E I N T H E S A M E*
near
To an extent, any game with challenge requires a little bit of masochism. You do it because the dopamine you get when you get past it are comparable to drugs.
"Here's your kindle" I died 😂😂
Max ! i died like i died on dark souls
Max The Ashen One m
COME ON THIS IS YOUR 1568TH DEATH !
Kindle Bonfire
Max The Ashen One hah yup XD
I am addicted to the series XD
I just started Dark Souls 3 having never played the first 2. 10,000 deaths and 20 hours of gameplay later, I'm on my way to the Abyss Watchers... I feel like this video has explained my experience so far to an eerily accurate degree. Also, great job to the voice actors! I don't know if I just missed some silly dialogue somewhere, but sounds like some additions were made for the video and whoever voiced the Ad-lib lines for the characters did an amazing job. Spot-on impressions!
13:45 Waifu Material indeed
"I mean touch THE DARKNESS within me" "Ok." Thought: GOD DAMN IT!
@@zlsilentsnipelz2532 It's a win win
