More Coins, But Maybe This Time Different Colors - [Part 21]
152Rules: No using the control-stick except in Mario Cam (first-person). This is effectively no walking, running, swimming. Goal is all 120 Shines. Run will keep going if there is no way around a rule break. Exceptions to rules include episode menu & moving the cursor for map.

~~~~~Run-Specific FAQ~~~~~
Q: Can I backseat?
A: No, ESPECIALLY if you've seen this run been done before. If I need help, I'll ask. I like to figure this stuff out on my own.
Q: I saw Mario walk! Cheater!
A: What you're likely seeing is the animation of him walking after a dive or some other short of speed gain. That isn't due to control-stick (nor my input at all) so it's not a rule break. If you think you saw me move control stick when I wasn't in first-person, please tell me. Also, sometimes I "cheat" just to see what I'm dealing with or what's possible before going back to the rules.
Q: This looks awful
A: Actually, it's super fun. Save states take away the pain. Sometimes I also like to do stupid strats for fun even when they aren't necessary.
Q: Why isn't your Shine/Blue Coin counter going up?
A: Due to save states screwing with memory, the game doesn't like to save. This is rectified in periodic streams where I redo all the progress I've made (being allowed to break the rules) without using save states.
Q: Wait, this run has been done before? I thought you don't attempt stuff that hasn't been done before?
A: Technically, this run hasn't been taken as far as I have taken it. I am going for 100%, and as far as we are aware no one else is. However, on my journey, I have found two other people who have/are attempting this run (without save states):

~~~~~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 this become a video?
A: Most likely, yes. Usually, the video comes out about a year after the stream (each video takes at least 100 hours to make).
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 Sekiro, 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). On Mondays, I do a run that was selected by viewers, and on Wednesdays I typically do an All Boss Run in Dark Souls.
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! 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.
