Dark Souls Remastered post-game discussion, tier lists, speedrun reactions and more! (2026.10.08)

Now that the game's completed, it's tier lists time! Alongside post-game reflections and some reactions to the speedruns. -- Dark Souls Remastered blind playthrough playlist:    • Dark Souls Remastered blind playthrough   Blind playthrough playlist:    • Blind Playthroughs   #darksouls #soulsborne #firstplaythrough It was a sour feeling to have seen that the macguffin I was missing was accessible from quite early on into the game, but given that its location was reachable either through a ladder hidden behind a waterfall with unclear water traversal, or behind a 20k-soul relic sold by the blacksmith whose shop I had not checked since the early game, this silliness was bound to happen. The remaining boss fights (Sif, Four Kings, and Gwyn) were all pretty underwhelming as usual, and had their pitiful runbacks as always. I would have been interested in touching the areas/other content I had missed, had the game not forced me into NG+ after reaching the ending. Amusing that I was close to hitting the hidden area from Blighttown though. ~ Stream setup: PSU: MSi MEG Ai1300P PCIE5 (1300 W) Graphics Card: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 (10GB GDDR6X) CPU: Intel Core i7-12700K (12-core 3.61 GHz) Motherboard: MSi PRO-Z690A WiFi SSD: WD Blue SN570 NVMe SSD 1TB RAM: XPG Lancer DDR5 UDIMM 32GB (2x16) 5200 MHz Microphone: Blue Spark SL Condenser Microphone & Blue Compass Microphone Boom Arm Audio Interface: Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 3rd Gen Controller: Dual Shock 4 controller, 8BitDo Pro 2 Switch controller, 8BitDo SN30 Pro, 8BitDo Pro 3 Switch controller, Logitech F310 Gamepad Arcade stick: Qanba Q8-GR, MadCatz Arcade Fightstick TE BlazBlue Continuum Shift special edition Webcam: Logitech BRIO 4K webcam Capture card: Elgato HD60 Pro
