Famous God Run streamer Aiden "The_Happy_Hob" has received viral status in the FromSoft community after managing to complete his iconic challenge yet again. For those unaware, a God Run typically consists of finishing multiple Souls-like game titles back-to-back without taking a single hit. The challenge has been attempted and completed by other Twitch stars as well, such as BushidoYu.
After finishing the third iteration of The God Run, the Twitch star has managed to finish seven games in a row. The games are Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice, Bloodborne, Dark Souls 2, Demon Souls, Dark Souls 1, Dark Souls 3, and finally Elden Ring in that particular order.
The ecstatic reaction of the streamer came after two months of consistently trying to beat the games with the self-imposed rule of not taking a singular hit from any enemy, even the bosses. His commitment and sheer will were lauded by netizens on various social media platforms.

"Souls-borne-kiro-ring Hero!" - The_Happy_Hob completes The God Run 3, a continuous no-hit run-through of the seven Souls-like games
Timestamp: 06:21:20
Aiden "The_Happy_Hob" is already well-known within the Souls-like community for his previous attempts and eventual completion of The God Run 1 in 2019, consisting of all the Soulsborne games (Bloodborne, Dark Souls 1-3 and Demon Souls). He further completed The God Run 2 in 2021, where he beat not only all the entries from the first iteration of the run but Sekiro as well.
At around the six-and-a-half-hour mark, Aiden finally managed to defeat which is the final boss in Elden Ring, the "Elden Beast", effectively marking the completion of The God Run 3. He then proceeded to exclaim out of happiness, referring to his new achievement:
"Souls-borne-kiro-ring Hero! Let's go!"
The English streamer launched himself out of his chair in pure excitement and knocked some of his equipment over in the process.
However, he had a brief moment of dread as the screen faded to black, giving the streamer the impression that he had accidentally died. Soon after, the screen lit up again, showing that the boss had been slain:
"Wait, we did do it, right? Did I die?... Yay!"
"Imagine the heart rate" - Fans react to the impressive feat
The clip of Aiden achieving this incredible feat was posted to r/LivestreamFail, with many netizens applauding the streamer's sheer will and persistence.
As Aiden rejoices, fans are wondering whether the next challenge will consist of him incorporating the new Souls-like title, Lies of P or Lord of the Fallen, in his run.
It would be exciting to see if he can maintain his impressive streak and conquer the games with the same level of expertise. It would be a true testament to his gaming prowess if he could achieve similar success in two different games that offer unique mechanics and different sets of bosses.
