A Dark Souls 3 streamer playing the game twice at the same time became wildly lucky with their random number generation.
Streamer BioticNova is tackling not just one playthrough of Dark Souls 3, but two, right at the same time. You can see an absolutely astounding clip from the streamer just below, in which their two playthroughs perfectly sync in harmony so they're able to parry Pontiff Sulyvahn back-to-back in both playthroughs at the same time.

The streamer also reveals they actually repeated these two fights at once until the RNG aligned like this. Responding to FromSoftware fanatic Lance McDonald in the tweet below, BioticNova says they're going to pretend they didn't repeat the fight over and over again until they got this incredibly favorable result.

After that things get a little more unpredictable though, as the boss can even duplicate itself to deal out twice the pummelling to poor players.
I just really, really hope the rest of the dual fight against Pontiff Sulyvahn
