Going to register a username on twitch just so I can join the braying of the chat that gives solid yet conflicting tips.
Follow @greenspeak on twitter, it auto tweets from twitch when he starts broadcasting.I'm going to stay up to see this, yep.
Hey Seventh Son remember to post a link when it's on, as all the times zones can be confusing for us non USers.

What the fruit. I checked the stream some time before going to bed and there was no new activity.
Does he post the video to twitch later and stream from somewhere else?
He did play online in the first streams, not sure why he didn't in the last one.Just getting to andre is pretty hard the first time tbh, especially if you haven't kindled. It's a long run with the hardest enemies at the end. Also, jeff you should play online so you see messages from other players.
Thanks I missed it!
2) I was playing offline only because for some reason the game booted me off before I started the stream. Wasn't planned.
You can also Kindle up to 5 times I believe. This does one of several things. It makes your Estus Flasks more potent meaning it restores more health i.e. Estus Flask +1. However, in order to do that you have to beat a boss later in the game which will enable you to do it. You might also notice that you get an Estus Flask +1 when you get to a bonfire (reflected the golden soul animation that goes into you). This is because another player in his/her game Kindled the bonfire in their game which also benefits other players.

Watching people Dark Souls makes me want to get into my game (360) and finish the Artorias of the Abyss area.
You've got that wrong, buddy.You can also Kindle up to 5 times I believe. This does one of several things. It makes your Estus Flasks more potent meaning it restores more health i.e. Estus Flask +1.

Here's what happens: he'll learn how to play better.I've only played this game a little bit, but I hate to see what's going to happen when jeff gets to a boss he can't cheese. Or can you cheese all of them? He's got to get more into rolling around
You can kindle 3 times, btw, and each time you increase the number of Estus flasks by 5 (5>10, 10>15, 15>20). However, for the kindling a third time you to obtain an item from a certain boss.
Oh shit. It's been too long.Also wrong, you can only kindle once without the rite. For 15 and 20 you need the rite.

Hell, Giantbomb's Vinny only learned how to play properly during the fight against DLC boss Artorias. Up until that point he tanked his way through the game and didn't give a shit about dodging attacks.
Definitely. I wouldn't tell anyone how to play this game beyond explaining the mechanics. Over-level yourself all you want, or don't level at all; Use Havel's armor or run around butt-naked. It's all legitimate and that's one of the cool things about this game. It's almost like an RPG sandbox.Everyone can kind of play this game their own way -- differently -- although surely some ways are more affective than others.
Thank you all again and of course I am happy for the advice! It's harder for me to read in chat while playing/broadcasting, so your tips here are great. Thanks.
Three things:
1) I'll put this episode up on YouTube this morning.
2) I was playing offline only because for some reason the game booted me off before I started the stream. Wasn't planned.
3) More today because what the heck.
I love Jeff, but goddamn assuming he was a somewhat competent gamer once, his skills really seem to have deteriorated with age. Wrestling with the controls, disregarding enemy patterns etc.
So basically what I'm trying to say is, he'd fit in perfectly with the Giantbomb guys. <3
I think a lot of that is trying to play, talk, and read the chat at the same time. He's really charming guy and it's fun to intereact but wish he would focus a bit more on the game at times. There were at least a dozen times in this past stream where he litterally just stopped fighting guys that were already on the screen and got hit as a result and then yelled "Oh fuck." It happened over and over.
Haha. Duly noted.
I'll work on being less distracted by the chat. Oh, and yesterday's episode should be up on YouTube shortly. Processing now!
that first stream was so hard for me to watch. Will try to watch more in case it gets good.
I never suck at any game, thank you very much.Llittle things that he does that lack any resemblance of common video game sense drive me nuts, but he is funny.As he has said many times, he started that stream as a joke and wasn't taking it at all serious at that point but then got sucked in.
Jeff is making tremendous progress. He now regularly locks on to guys, blocks, chooses his attack openings, and he is even starting to learn to kick away enemies shields when they block. Outside of getting distracted, he has made huge improvements.
We all sucked when we started playing Dark Souls.
Haha. Duly noted.

Can you link to your Youtube channel? I've been watching them on Twitch but if the archived Youtube versions are higher quality I'd rather watch em there.
