Streamer Completes FromSoftware's Toughest Challenge After Two Years

FromSoftware games are notoriously challenging, as evidenced by streamer Kai Cenat who died over a thousand times just to complete Elden Ring. This makes the achievements of players who take on even greater challenges all the more remarkable.

Streamer Dinossindgeil has achieved a historic feat by becoming the first person to complete the God Run 3 SL1 challenge, which involves finishing seven FromSoftware games consecutively without leveling up or taking a single hit. This daunting challenge took him nearly two years to conquer. The emotional climax came when he defeated the final boss, Soul of Cinder in Dark Souls III, leading to an outpouring of tears from the streamer.

The God Run 3 SL1 is widely regarded as the most difficult challenge within the FromSoftware community. It requires players to complete seven games in a row without leveling up and without taking any damage. The rules are strict: if a player gets hit even once, they must restart the entire run from the beginning, regardless of their progress.

Dinossindgeil's journey was filled with numerous attempts. In the summer of 2024, a run was thwarted by a bug in Dark Souls II, where an arrow unexpectedly clipped through a wall. At that point, he had already successfully completed Elden Ring and Dark Souls I, but the rules forced him to start over.

It will be fascinating to see FromSoftware's response to this monumental achievement. What is undeniable is that Dinossindgeil has etched his name into gaming history with this incredible feat.
