If I were to make another challenge for a Rockstar game, which of these would you guys most like to see?

Alright guys this one took a LOT longer than I anticipated but with Ghost of Yotei coming out soon I decided to beat Ghost of Tsushima with no upgrades on lethal difficulty. And by no upgrades I mean starting armor and sword with stone stance ONLY. This was a struggle. While most of the playthrough wasn't too bad, I still think there is a section in this that's the hardest thing I've ever done for one of these challenges. But hopefully you guys enjoy when this video drops on Friday!

Here's an update for all of you: I JUST finished my next challenge playthrough which took me significantly longer than I anticipated. I still need to edit so it's probably a couple weeks away but for those curious: I wanted to replay Ghost of Tsushima before Ghost of Yotei comes out and figured I might as well make it extremely difficult, so I beat it on Lethal difficulty with no upgrades, katana only, stone stance only, broken armor...it was brutal. Most of the game was manageable, but one section in particular was the most difficult thing I think I've endured for any of these challenges (it literally took me 3 weeks to beat one section that is super easy in any other playthrough). Anyway, that will be my next video and after that I have some other challenge ideas involving RDR2 and TLOU which I might end up live streaming if there's interest so stay tuned!

Back again with a new GTA V challenge. This time I tried to finish the main story with the fewest character switches possible by only switching when absolutely necessary and trying to optimize the mission order to do so. How many switches was it? At least 2, but find out tomorrow at 12:00pm et when the video goes live!

I hope you guys are ready because I have a new video coming soon (likely tomorrow) comparing season 2 of The Last of Us show with the game. I'm focusing on Ellie's kill count, but also looking at some of the other changes made in the show. And I am working on more Shorts focusing on the lore in TLOU so stay tuned. Until then: what did you guys think of Season 2?

New video coming Sunday at 12:00pm et! I beat The Last of Us Part 2 using a mod to play as Joel. It was a ton of fun and I actually streamed the entire thing on my channel which you can find in my Live tab in 4 parts. If you'd like to try the mods yourself they only work on PC but I'll link them below. On another note what are you guys feeling about season 2 of the show so far?

In case you haven't heard: I will be livestreaming more The Last of Us Part II while playing as Joel today around 12:00pm et here on my channel (~2 hours from the time I am making this post). You can find the livestream today here: youtube.com/live/NojK0R0gOvg . And yes I have the mod ACTUALLY working. I can play as almost any character model in the game so I'll mess with that a bit, but I will be sticking with Joel for most of this. Already near the end of Abby day one, don't miss it! You can also catch the first 3 parts of this playthrough here: youtube.com/playlist?list=PLX...

BIG ANNOUNCEMENT: I will be doing a livestream of The Last of Us Part II using a playable Joel mod this weekend starting tomorrow April 11 around 7:00pm et. The stream will be on my YouTube channel starting tomorrow night, so come back then to check it out and I'll be streaming Saturday and Sunday too (and if you can't join don't worry the Live will still be available on my channel to view later). Currently the mod only works for Ellie and it straight up won't allow me to melee, but honestly those just add to the challenge so this will likely be a no melee and no dodge challenge. It does look like the creator may add support for Abby's half of the game too so either way I'll be doing the whole game, just might have to wait for the second half but tbd. I'm excited to play this and I've never actually done a full playthrough of Part 2 before on stream, so I hope you guys can join! Also if you want to try it yourself this is the mod I'll be using created by Lambi79: www.nexusmods.com/thelastofuspart2/mods/26

In anticipation for The Last of Us season 2 coming out this Sunday I tried to beat the first game with fewer kills than the show. How did I do? Find out tomorrow! I will also have a second announcement coming very soon this week. On top of that I've also been trying to post more TLOU shorts with random info about the series so check those out too! Lots of TLOU content coming with season 2 on the way so stay tuned!

A new GTA V challenge is finally dropping tomorrow at around 12:00pm et! This time I attempted to beat the game with ONLY explosives. This was a lot of fun and I DID end up dying to grenades an absurd amount of times. Highly recommend trying it yourself (without the dying part lol). Hope you guys enjoy this one!
