FromSoftware games are renowned for their high difficulty level, as evidenced by streamer Kai Cenat's over 1,000 deaths while attempting to complete Elden Ring. This backdrop makes the achievements of players tackling even greater challenges all the more remarkable.
Streamer Dinossindgeil has achieved a groundbreaking feat by becoming the first person to successfully complete the God Run 3 SL1 challenge. This daunting task involves completing seven FromSoftware games consecutively without leveling up or taking any damage. Dinossindgeil dedicated nearly two years to this endeavor, showcasing unparalleled dedication and skill. Upon defeating the final boss, Soul of Cinder in Dark Souls III, the emotional intensity of the moment overwhelmed him, leading to tears of joy and relief.
The God Run 3 SL1 challenge is widely regarded as the most formidable within the FromSoftware community. It requires players to navigate through seven games without any level-ups and without taking a single hit. The rules are strict: even one hit means starting the entire challenge from the beginning, regardless of progress.
Dinossindgeil's journey was fraught with countless attempts. In the summer of 2024, a bug in Dark Souls II—a rogue arrow clipping through a wall—ended one of his runs after he had already conquered Elden Ring and Dark Souls I. Undeterred, he began anew, showcasing his unwavering resolve.
It will be fascinating to see how FromSoftware responds to this monumental achievement. What is clear, however, is that Dinossindgeil has etched his name into gaming history with this incredible accomplishment.
