Dear reader, I've started to be able to set my watch by the amount of time between the release of a new FromSoftware game and the eventuality, sure as the heat death of the universe, of a YouTuber swaggering along and making me feel very bad for the amount of times I've seen the 'You Died' text. Or, in the case of Elden Ring Nightreign, 'Defeat'.
Parry master Ongbal, who has made us look like chumps in Sekiro before, is back at it again. After strutting up and solo-ing a Nightlord as the Executor last week, Ongbal has now officially defeated the game's penultimate big bad without taking a single lick of damage. Not so much as a bruise. Flawless, incredible, aspirational victory.
