Fans have been usingDance Dance Revolutionpads, or something equivalent to that, to beat games as a fun challenge for quite some time. Recently afan beat a difficult level inDestinyusing a dance pad, but thisDark Souls 3completion, using only a level 1 character, may be even more impressive.
In a video posted on Reddit, a clip of Luality’s accomplishment is captured wonderfully. She seems genuinely thrilled with herself for taking down the final boss, and she should be, asDark Souls 3has some difficult bossesfor sure. Just like the three heart challenge inZelda, beating aSoulsgame with a level one character is a crazy task that fans like to attempt. Doing this with a dance pad on top of that is just ridiculous.
There are tons oftips to beatDark Souls 3, though none would suggest using an oddball controller that impairs standard play and never leveling up. Luality’s completion of the game under such circumstances, and any player who does something similar, is certainly different and cool.
There are a lot ofDark Soulsmemesthat point to how insanely hard the games can be, as the community likes to poke fun at itself for just how challenging the titles are. That being said, players who enjoy the tactical and insanely difficult elements of theSoulsgames are in some ways from a different era. TheSoulsgames can be compared to titles from the ’80s and ’90s, where guides and cheat codes were almost necessities. It’s pretty neat to see the community continually challenging itself.
