Streamer beats Elden Ring boss using only brain signals

Streamer perrikaryal has used just her brain signals to defeat Elden Ring's Malenia boss, a feat that is impressive even when playing with a standard controller. Earlier this year, perrikaryal, who is known for using an EEG to monitor brain activity live on screen, began playing Elden Ring by training the device to recognize certain "states" and bind it to the attack key. Now, three months later, she has progressed to the Malenia boss fight and nearly completed the entire game using only her thoughts.

Perrikaryal's achievement highlights the potential of technology to aid those with disabilities in accessing and enjoying video games. While others have beaten the boss using unconventional methods, such as a dance mat or just one hand, perrikaryal's accomplishment is unparalleled. Watching the streamer play is a unique experience, as they concentrate intently to imagine attacking an enemy in the game, as evidenced by the expression on their face when preparing for an attack. Playing the entire game in this way is mentally and physically demanding.

Perrikaryal's accomplishment is a testament to the incredible capabilities of the human brain and is sure to inspire others to push the boundaries of what is possible in the world of gaming.
