One Dark Souls player got absolutely pummelled in Sen's Fortress, banded around like a ball between the huge swinging axes, and yet somehow they inexplicably emerged alive.
I hate Sen's Fortress. You hate Sen's Fortress. We all hate Sen's Fortress. The tricky tower of swinging axes shows mercy to no one - except, perhaps, with the odd caveat of the lucky Dark Souls player just below, who found themselves stood atop one of the swinging axes when they suddenly got pushed off a walkway by another trap.
Sen’s Funhouse from r/fromsoftware
The player begins by getting thrown back by a swinging axe - something we've all suffered through countless times. They then get pushed off the walkway by another axe, so you'd be forgiven for thinking they're in for a guaranteed death. But just at the last moment, they somehow fall onto another swinging axe, which saves them from death and gives them a comfy spot in which to chill for a moment.
- After almost 2 years of attempts, Dark Souls legend completes his brutal 7-game "God Run 3": Demon's Souls to Elden Ring without taking a single hit, all at level 1
- Elden Ring player becomes the first to beat every New Game+ difficulty back to back without getting hit, in an 8-playthrough run that somehow took under 12 hours
They actually manage to time their next roll to perfection so they gracefully step off the swinging axe and onto the walkway just beneath. It would've been really painful if they'd missed the platform after all that and just fell to the deaths in the depths of Sen's Fortress. This sure is 'Sen's Funhouse' alright - I just wish it was this fun all the time.
I'm not alone in having expected the player to die after the second axe hit. "Not sure which is more amazing, the fact you got on one alive or the fact you got off alive," reads one comment. "I thought you were gonna get hit again right at the end there lol," another adds, while a third reads, "Many many years ago this happened to me, I did not land on the [beam] below..."
