There's always a huge sense of relief and pride that comes with beating a boss in Demon's Souls, especially if you've been at it for a couple of hours learning their move set and when to attack. So, what if the PlayStation 5 DualSense controller was taken away from you and replaced with a dance pad usually reserved for the likes of Dance Dance Revolution? Well, YouTuber and Twitch streamer Luality has made it happen.
They managed to beat Flameluker using the controller in question, with the evidence sourced from the video embedded above. But Luality didn't stop there — she has actually beaten the entire game using the dance pad and has done the very same thing for Bloodborne. You'd have to be incredibly skilled and know each boss fight inside out to pull such a feat off, so this is very impressive stuff. Luality's Twitter bio reads: "Beat games with my feet and my bunny is badass!" We agree on both fronts.
Would you ever attempt something like this? Let us know in the comments below.

Do it with Maneater and I’ll be impressed. (Still impressed, actually .)
Fair play, I'm sure anyone could with practise though? I doubt I or anyone could just be handed one and do it first time!
This is just crazy. Was hard enough on a DualSense!
As somebody who's usually allergic to challenge in gaming, I have a weird-yet-unshakeable respect for those who look at a difficult scenario and say "Okay, that's all well and good, but how do I make it even harder?" Much applause for her achievement!
And them there is me who plays on story difficulty 😥
@kyleforrester87 Well can‘t most people do most things with practice though? Still incredibly impressive
Real Hardcore Gamer: Girls can't play video games.
Dancepad Lady: Hold my bunny loafers!
If you think that’s impressive, you need to get out more! She even holds the bar. Loser.
Bluepoint now needs to add a dance off option for each boss!
That's super impressive, I even didn't know if I can beat the game later when I have ps5 😅
@kyleforrester87 that goes for everything in life lol
DDR: Demon's Dance Revolution.
I guess the next step is with a guitar hero controller? Or an ocarina?
I own 2 DDR pads from the PS1 days just sitting there b/c I've never been able to figure out how to hook them up to any other console I own - which is most consoles not Xboxen - so I'm impressed she got a dance pad hooked up and working on her PS5.
@HaughtyHades @Joker22Hero yep true enough! Although learning to do a back flip on a mountain bike off a 50 foot drop versus learning to use a different input method isn’t quite the same thing either! Give anyone on here a dance mat and a week and we’d be beating Flamelurker
Still, all kudos due for the lady in the video.
That's nothing, I used the Power Glove.
Very well done! I've just reached this boss in my playthrough. Having a frustrating time even on the DualSense - I think the lock on camera is the biggest boss in Demon's Souls haha.
@TG16_IS_BAE Well, aren't you a ray of sunshine! I suggest you impress us with your mad skills then!
@WinterschneeFee With the dance game? Been there and done that, I played for 15 years and won competitions. I think I earned a little bit of trash talk for this noob lol
@TG16_IS_BAE Oh no, we got a badass over here! No fun allowed I guess
@WinterschneeFee You’re misusing that meme to protect some loser playing a game with a walker.
Haven't played Demons Soul but she gives me the impression I'll breeze it with a pad, although it'll just make me more frustrated if I ever get to play it knowing she did this.
@TG16_IS_BAE And you're the one invalidating one's achievements based on your own experience. How many people do you know of that have completed games like this in such an absurdly impractical manner? Not many I am sure.
It makes the game unnecessarily more difficult and for that she can be applauded nonetheless.
@WinterschneeFee @TG16_IS_BAE it is impressive since she can do it and nearly everyone else cannot but in reality it wouldn’t take long to learn how to use a dance pad like that, unless I am missing something. I guess I do not consider it an innate talent?
@kyleforrester87 This is something I can definitely get behind. With practice I can definitely see this done by many more but why would they want to do this other than for the purpose to challenge one-self? And that's what I find so admirable about it, to beat games in unconventional ways like this.
@kyleforrester87 that's true as well
@WinterschneeFee Sure, I guess it is like running a marathon. Most people can do it but few bother to put the effort in.
WOW, that's incredible.
I thought the chap playing it with the Donkey Kong Bongos was impressive, but this girl is really cool!
Proves my point the game isn't that hard, its just memory. Die and learn enough and anyone could do it.
That's impressive. Granted, the boss took me two, maybe three, but I think two tires. Almost got him on my first go. He's not that hard. Well, not if you use magic at least. Now, beat the Maneaters like this, and that's beating one of the hardest bosses.
Flamelurker on NG isn’t too bad. He’s a whole different story in NG+ however.
Had to go full try-hard with water veil, PFS, and Sticky White Slime the second time around to take him down.
Still just sitting here laughing at the Push Square article saying the platinum in this would be easy enough to pull off. How’s the 3rd playthrough and gold coin/ pure blade stone farming going for ya?
I've done this. It's quite easy. But then I am a pro gamer.
A female twitcher that actually puts effort in? That's cool. Though, I still won't ever go to the site itself.
@kyleforrester87 That's a common misconception. The "10 000 hours makes you an expert" popular idea on the internet is false. No amount of exercise/practice can account for some innate level of dexterity and skills you need to be a pro at most things (music, sports, etc). For video games, it is debatable but I don't think if I let my grandma play Cuphead for 10000 hours that she will be able to beat it lol.
Practice all you want, if you are 5 feet tall, you will never play in the NBA.
this is impressive, for real.
@kyleforrester87 yeah I dont know.. she didnt practice for days either
I did this already but I didn't brag about it on the Internet like some people.
@Turbodream
I'd like to think you could hit a decent jumper after 10,000 hours though!
That's how I always took the 10,000 hours thing, that you'd have your maximum proficiency/competency in a skill.
@ScottyG The article did not say the Platinum Trophy would be easy, it said the requirements are straight forward. Which they are.
I’m also not sure why you would be needing to farm those items for the Platinum?
Welp my dozens of hours of grinding mustve paid off cuz when the flamelurker would hit me it wouldnt do much damage. I just used magic on it, beat it mt first try lol
This girl also finished Dark Souls 3 with the dance mat few years ago . =)
@LiamCroft
They’re needed for 2 rings. I don’t want to go into it too much more just to avoid potential spoilers.
@RPE83 Fair enough, but the number of hours rely heavily on what kind of skill you want to develop and your natural talent.
It also minimizes the fact that you still need to practice afterwards if you don't want to regress... and for physical skills you are going to regress anyway as you get older.
10000 hours is such a random number. It is a pet peeve of mine, just like the "you only use 10% of your brain".
@Turbodream
I do agree somewhat as the "10k steps=weight loss/fitness" is one that amuses me.
Some miserable people in this tread, I think its great to see a streamer go to this length to stand out, pun intended.
