A Straight Sword Hilt Adventure | Dark Souls: Remastered Challenge Run

Dark Souls provides the player from the start with the Straight Sword Hilt. A weapon meant to be discarded and to show beginners that swapping out equipment can be a good choice. What if however you would ask yourself: "Can I beat Dark Souls Remastered with the Straight Sword Hilt ONLY???"
Well, it certainly is. But how would that look like? Especially when going lenient and allowing magic?
To find out you can watch this Runestone Golem VTuber attempt such a run and who knows, maybe you'll learn something new along the way.

Without one of the tactics he used, I never would've finished this run myself.
