FromSoftware games are notorious for their brutal difficulty, a fact underscored by streamer Kai Cenat's over 1000 deaths while attempting to conquer Elden Ring. This backdrop makes the feats of those who embrace even greater challenges all the more remarkable.
Enter streamer Dinossindgeil, who has etched his name in gaming lore by becoming the world's first to complete the God Run 3 SL1 challenge. This grueling endeavor demands finishing seven FromSoftware titles consecutively without leveling up or sustaining 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 of triumph.
The God Run 3 SL1 is hailed as the pinnacle of difficulty within the FromSoftware community. The rules are stringent: complete seven games in sequence, with no level-ups and zero damage taken. A single hit means restarting the entire run, no matter the progress made.
Dinossindgeil's path to success was fraught with countless attempts. In the summer of 2024, a run was cut short by a frustrating bug in Dark Souls II—an arrow clipping through a wall. At that point, he had already bested Elden Ring and Dark Souls I, only to be forced to start anew.
FromSoftware's response to this monumental achievement remains to be seen, but one thing is clear: Dinossindgeil has cemented his legacy in the annals of gaming history.
