FromSoftware games are renowned for their punishing difficulty, as evidenced by streamer Kai Cenat's over 1,000 deaths while attempting to complete Elden Ring. This backdrop makes the accomplishments of players who embrace additional challenges all the more awe-inspiring.
Streamer Dinossindgeil has etched his name into the annals of gaming history by becoming the first person to conquer the God Run 3 SL1 challenge. This Herculean task required him to complete seven FromSoftware games consecutively without leveling up or taking a single hit. Dinossindgeil dedicated nearly two years to this endeavor. His triumph came when he finally defeated the Soul of Cinder, the final boss of Dark Souls III, a moment so overwhelming that it brought him to tears.
The God Run 3 SL1 is hailed as the most formidable challenge within the FromSoftware community. It demands that players navigate through seven games in sequence, never gaining a level and never suffering even the slightest damage. The rules are uncompromising: a single hit means restarting the entire run, regardless of progress.
To achieve this feat, Dinossindgeil faced countless attempts. In the summer of 2024, a run was thwarted by a bug in Dark Souls II, where an arrow inexplicably passed through a wall. At that point, he had already conquered Elden Ring and Dark Souls I, yet had to begin anew from the very start.
The gaming world eagerly awaits FromSoftware's response to this monumental achievement. What is undeniable is that Dinossindgeil has firmly established his place in gaming lore with this extraordinary accomplishment.
