    Update: here's the follow up video in which I go through both DLCs: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zdeUW9BtP-k I also showcase a proof of concept method on how to start a no stamina playthrough WITHOUT having the onyx blade already in your inventory The full unedited livestreams: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uRoD1KsPq4M&list=PL7ZSS2SC_BLkEMxKo_bGPaGGTTJXeAb27 LifeAsAVegiminer's No Stamina run: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RLDB4wV-g1M My own Bloodborne No Stamina run: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XHu4htKNuV4 Dark Souls 3 Dragon stones Only: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OrHyL566-rE Intro song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LjneaGe4GjU Patreon: www.patreon.com/presscontinue Discord: discord.gg/9wmc2AV6fJ
  • @easyname3695
    "Have a friend drop the onyx blade for you. Well the real challenge there would be to aquire a friend first" factually correct
  • @Buzk_4
    Finally. Now we have Press doing literall walkthroughs with his "No stamina" runs, and Ymfah doing literall opposite with his "No walking" runs.
  • Getting the hand monster to throw you across the gap is the kind of creativity that keeps me addicted to challenge runs like these.
  • @grfrjiglstan
    This move is basically just the “get off of me” move Pontiff and Raime have in their boss fights. The difference, of course, is that those bosses have all the stamina.
  • I haven't got far through this video yet, but pointing out upfront a fellow channel that has done a similar run with little recognition is a very honourable thing to do. Amazing work to both you and Vegiminer 👏
  • 8:53 Dodging Nameless King's wind attack by jumping over it with a sword spin is probably the coolest thing you can do with a weapon art in this game. Its like straight up from some anime fight scene
  • Your patience with learning micro-spacing for fights in runs like this is Godlike. I remember panicking with Pontiff but here you are literally walking circles around him lol. Great video as always!
  • @Ak4ntor
    Your humour is making these vids a billion times better, i watched you struggle along in the livestream and i will 100% watch you struggle along in the edited version. I would say this is the type of challenge where id say "noone would be crazy enough to pull through with this" if i wouldnt have watched you complete this live :v
  • @Be_And
    Holy smokes Press, you are a mad man! Top work.
  • @hugehuman1
    I love how casually he drops puns into his speech, like they're his way of coping with how hard this run was and they're second nature now.
  • @Joural0401
    every time I hear "how was I supposed to avoid that" I want to put my hand up and say "you're supposed to be dodge rolling and running"
  • @GuyXVIII
    Accomplishment nothing less then amazing. Btw I've watched the unedited series and this video could NEVER convey how insanely hard some of these bosses were, like Abyss Watchers or Dragonslayer armor. GG well played!
  • @ThiccFish
    Most people: Yeah, that'd be funny lol, can you imagine playing like that? Press continue: Yeah. But what if?
  • @DarkCT
    ...sweet hell man... THAT WAS AMAZING! you always exhibit so much perseverance, but you REALLY showed it off right here.
  • I gotta tell you using the hand to get across was a ymfah moment and it blew my fucking mind that was more impressive than the actual "Walk"through
  • Man, this was fun to watch. Looking forward to the next parts, mate
  • @LundyHuntyr
    Hey Press, just wanted to say I’ve been watching your runs for a few months now, and you’re one of the few youtubers that inspired me to become a challenge runner. Thanks for making great content!!
