Dark Souls Sunday!

It’s a few weeks since I promised a new era in the shameless pursuit of new demographics. What can I say: I am a busy yet lazy man. Also I tried to record some Goat Simulator videos and quickly discovered that video editing is quite difficult when you have no software and no clue what you’re doing. Frustrated, I chose to play Dark Souls rather than record videos of it.

But at last I have returned to Lordran with a new character and a burning desire to introduce potential new players to some of the game’s basics. Below is an embedded round-up of the first three videos, which were published Friday, yesterday and today respectively.

Apologies that the black bars around the sides of the video are still present. I thought I had that issue fixed but apparently not! I can only guess that Dark Souls letterboxes its video even when running in a window. That, or I’m an idiot. Hopefully my voice is now more audible than in the test video, at least.

If you enjoy these videos, please hammer that thumbs-up button and all the other stuff that you do on YouTube, like argue about whether Metallica or Skrillex constitutes real music, or embark on a dissection of contemporary American racism.

    It was a fun (and often frustrating) experiment, but I think I'll not be bothering with any more videos in this series.

    The viewing stats are really low, so I guess AR readers aren't interested in this, and getting anything seen over the clamour of YouTube's to-them-that-hath-more-shall-be-given approach isn't worth the time investment right now.

    But if you did watch these, I hope you enjoyed them!
