Streamer Completes Impossible FromSoftware Challenge After Two Years

FromSoftware games are notorious for their brutal difficulty, a fact well-documented by streamers like Kai Cenat, who succumbed over a thousand times in his quest to conquer Elden Ring. Yet, the accomplishments of those who push the boundaries even further are truly awe-inspiring.

Enter streamer Dinossindgeil, who has etched his name into gaming history as the first person to conquer the God Run 3 SL1 challenge. This Herculean task demands completing seven FromSoftware titles consecutively without leveling up or taking a single hit. Dinossindgeil's journey spanned nearly two years, culminating in an emotional victory over the Soul of Cinder in Dark Souls III, where he couldn't contain his tears.

The God Run 3 SL1 is heralded as the pinnacle of difficulty within the FromSoftware community. It entails playing through seven games back-to-back, with no level-ups and zero damage taken. The rules are unforgiving: a single hit forces a complete restart, no matter the progress.

Dinossindgeil's path was strewn with countless attempts. A particularly heart-wrenching moment occurred in the summer of 2024 when a bug in Dark Souls II, an arrow clipping through a wall, ended a promising run. At that point, he had already triumphed over Elden Ring and Dark Souls I, but the rules dictated he start anew.

It will be fascinating to observe FromSoftware's response to this monumental achievement. What's undeniable is that Dinossindgeil has cemented his legacy in the annals of gaming history.
