Elden Ring yapper beats Shadow of the Erdtree DLC using voice controls, taking down the final boss in a flurry of "wow," "panic," and "shrimp"

Elden Ring's Shadow of the Erdtree DLC is no joke, but that's not stopped talented Soulslike masochists everywhere from taking on brutal challenge runs to turn things up another notch. One streamer has now managed to beat the expansion using only voice commands, and it looks unbelievably stressful. Be warned, there are spoilers ahead for the DLC's final boss.

Twitch streamer Larxa has been tearing through Shadow of the Erdtree this past week with no physical controller in sight thanks to a unique setup that allows her to control absolutely everything with spoken phrases, allowing her to destroy the likes of Messmer the Impaler, Romina Saint of the Bud, and now Promised Consort Radahn. Anyone who's fought the DLC's souped-up version of Radahn will know that he hits like a truck and has some ridiculously fast attacks, making him hard to dodge at the best of times. So, how on earth are you expected to deal with that when you have to say everything you want to do out loud?
