Play the Chosen Undead in Risk of Rain 2: stamina, Estus, bonfires, YOU DIED and the Asylum Demon, read from your own Dark Souls: Remastered
A Dark Souls run inside Risk of Rain 2.
Pick the Chosen Undead, a new survivor in Elite Knight armour with a Longsword and Heater Shield. Every swing, roll and block costs stamina. The roll has invincibility frames, the shield blocks from the front until your stamina breaks, and you heal with Estus instead of regenerating.
Light bonfires on each stage to set your respawn point. Death is not the end of the run: YOU DIED, you wake at your last bonfire, monsters reset, and your gold stays in a bloodstain where you fell. Reach it or lose it.
On the first stage of each loop, the Asylum Demon guards the teleporter with its hammer, its leap and its own boss theme.
The knight, the demon, their animations, hit timing, stats and sounds are read from your installed Dark Souls: Remastered while you play. Nothing from Dark Souls is in the download, and your Dark Souls folder is never changed.
Needs: Risk of Rain 2 and Dark Souls: Remastered, both installed through Steam. Single player.
Controls: primary = Longsword, hold secondary = shield, utility = dodge roll, special = heavy strike, equipment = Estus, interact = light or rest at a bonfire.
Known limits in 0.1.0: single player only; the bonfire is your Longsword planted in the ground with a Risk of Rain 2 flame; footstep sounds are not played.
