This Guy Beat Dark Souls 2 In One Hour

April 18, 2014

A user by the name of Noobest on YouTube has uploaded a video of himself completing the game in exactly 1:14:59. How does he do it, you ask? Well, by employing several skills including concise navigation, and some mighty fine dodging skills.

To be clear, Dark Souls 2 is normally a game that takes 30 or more hours to complete. It’s a game with a lot of content, a great sum of which is optional. However, if you know what you’re doing you can knock down this fearsome giant in less time than it takes to beat Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes—ooh, I just went there.

See above for the speed run.
