I just watched from your first attempt through your reaching the firelink shrine. I love seeing first time/blind playthroughs, and I followed so I can see more. I have to warm you, and say that the only thing that could ruin the experience, and what would keep me from coming back, is how heavy the backseat gaming started to get.

You're going to have a lot of really great things spoiled for you if you have so many people shouting strategies and tactics and which pathways to follow. You commented on the adrenaline you felt when you finally killed the first boss, and a portion of that will definitely be lost when the surprise is taken away from you, or before you even know what an enemy looks like, someone on your chat has already told you where to look and how to dodge an attack, and what to do to kill them when they appear, opposed to being caught off guard and overcoming the challenge.

Be mindful of terrible advice coming your way, as well. Someone said that shields are never for blocking? Sure, it's easy to become too reliant on them, but it's your first Souls game.. Blocking is effective. Somebody else said health only matters if you're getting hit.. If you're invaded by a player who manages to land a riposte or backstab with the right kind of weapon and rings, they're going to kill you in one attack if you don't have enough health.

I understand wanting to interact with your audience, but playing any of these games for the first time is an experience you only get once, and a lot of people are going to be quick to try prove how bad ass they are to the rest of the chat by telling you exactly where to go for the best weapons and armor and that if you're any good you'd be playing naked with fists only and never leveling up, but if you're just doing a playthrough where everybody tells you what's coming up next and you try to accommodate everyone rather than play for yourself, it won't be much fun to watch.

Good luck!
