~~~Frequently Asked Questions~~~
GAEL-SPECIFIC:
Q: Why are you so bad at this game? Why are you not leveling up? Parry you casual.
A: This is only my second time playing, and you can't level up until Firelink. Gael has no attacks that can be parried, though he can be riposted, but it's not helpful in this fight due to low damage output.

Q: Is this practice?
A: Other than the occasional session in the beginning of the stream, no.

Q: Do you only stream this run?
A: No. I am currently streaming 2 other runs with another one being added soon. Wednesdays are typically Gael.

Q: Omg what about deacons?
A: It's going to be a lottery where I wait for the right Gael to be killed by other gaels.

Q: Have you tried all the classes? Why are/aren't you wearing armor? Bandit Knife? 2-handing? Shield?
A: At this point, we have tested every class, weapon, and armor configuration. Thief is good for bleed damage and speed, 2-handing is good for reach (but not for speed), thief shield doesn't matter, and the armor & class prevents me from getting one-shot as much while still retaining quick roll. If you talk about classes, I will ignore you.

Q: Is everything Gael?
A: All NPCs, Enemies, and even me (in cutscenes). NPCs will be friendly, but still Gael.

 Q: Will this stream be turned into a summarized video?
A: Yes. Videos take at least 100 hours to make, and I have a huge backlog, so please be patient.

Q: Trying making him fall off the cliff?
A: Already have, won't work

Q: Glitch him into into the coffin?
A: Already did and "beat" him, but I'm no casual so we're doing it "legit."

Q: Why do you quit out of the game every death?
A: I use a save state to avoid a 30 minute lottery of trying to kill the Gaels before the boss fight.

Q: What are your plans for a build? You should use Hollowslayer Greatsword!
A: Let me get past this area first. And that sword doesn't exist in this run. Don't ask why.

~~~General FAQ~~~
Q: Why do you do this?
A: So you don't have to.

Q: No, really?
A: I like problem solving and *some* of the runs are very enjoyable. Also clout.

Q: Will you do an all insert boss here run on Dark Souls 1, 2, or 3?
A: I plan to do every Dark Souls 1 Boss replacing all enemies runs that are supported by the mod. On DS 2 & 3, I will be doing Gael, Fume Knight and Midir Only. I have no plans for Sekro, and Bloodborne has too many issues with modding.

Q: What music, I don't hear music?
A: http://www.tinyurl.com/CAMUSIC1. I use a separate site in order to prevent copyright.

Q: Do you stream challenge runs of games that are not FromSoftware?
A: I stream 3 different runs at a time, one of which will always be a game that is not a FromSoft game (Saturdays).

Q: Do you stream runs that are not challenge runs?
A: Very, very rarely.

Q: What happens when I donate?
A: First of all, thank you! All donations currently go to improving the stream (paying off equipment). When you donate, you have the ability to play on song ($1 = 5 minutes) in the Watch2Gether site. Set your username to who you donated as and send the link in the Watch2Gether chat and @me in the stream chat once you do so. It's a poor system, but it's what I got. Any unspent donations are recorded for later use. If you want to know how many song requests you have left, please @me.
