    Hello, thanks for the video. In this area, shortly before you jump down to the boss area, there is a spot from which you can see *inside* one of the stone coffins because there is a hole in the wall of it. There is ooze leaking out of it, but you can see some rooms and doors inside, like the interior of a ship. I've been curious about that since I saw it from afar and I was hoping you would explore it in this video. Do you mind making a UA-cam short showing it perhaps?

      @@warcoder that’s a hypothesis with little support, since item details describe them as ‘coffins from unknown lands’ that ‘wash up on the cerulean coast’ - it’s very unlikely they’re the origin of the Numen, especially since the Bull is a symbol associated not with the Numen but the Ancient Dynasty.

      The decisions with how the areas were handled in the dlc did annoy me. The red and blue coasts are just normal areas with funny grass. When I saw the animals sleeping here I thought I was entering a larger area where I would witness sleeping entities turning into sludge from sleeping for so long, but immediately it was the boss and the area was done. Why have the red and blue areas for no reason then have a new unique area that ends instantly. Like 90% of the dlc is just the initial scadutree aesthetic, every unique area like here, rauh, the mountain, or the tower is super short.
      It reminds me of how in twilight princess you get to the twilight realm finally, only yo find the shortest and most underdeveloped dungeon. This dlc did that, with literally every area. Really really weak. Why they didnt delay the dlc or split it into 2 parts is baffling, guess they just want to move on.

      probably similar origins. here in purple the colossal coffins are cracked in some places, and exude the sludge we find at the bottom. meanwhile the nameless city's great waterfall is upstream of the lake of rot, and while the nameless city itself is bereft of cadavers or petrified forms, we see ants subsisting on a sediment of them left behind as a great mass made its way down through the sluice of nokstella into the lake of rot. this form of environmental storytelling is reinforced in the dlc if you look in the ravines below abandoned ailing village and bonny village

    The stone coffin boats sticking out of the walls gave me huge Made in Abyss vibes. Considering that Miyazaki has been inspired by anime before, like the trees of Ash Lake that looks very similar to the trees underneath the world in Nausicaa, it wouldn't surprise me he has taken inspiration from Made in Abyss, which in my opinion does a lot of similar type of world building in what methods are used. Both are great.

      I think the fact that it, and the nameless city, are suspended on a platform is a major indicator that it was previously up on the surface, but through some divine force it was pushed underground. I’ve seen loretubers look into this fact through item descriptions and map positions, but I think the more obvious clue is that it is in the middle of the open, suspended above a seemingly bottomless abyss. A completely lone island. It’s totally weird and it would be easy to just put cave walls around it, but the fact that there is no cave walls is a huge indicator that there is something important. They want us to look out into the darkness and speculate why it is there

    So I hadn't taken a close look at the coffin ships until now and just assumed the front of the ships had a Bull on them. While watching I was thinking, "It's weird that these ships have a bull on the front but there are literally no bovine in Elden Ring." Only to then 2 seconds later realize they aren't bulls but Spirit Horses like Torrent. Does this mean the Numen when they came to these lands brought the Spirit Horses? If so this leads me to believe Torrent's former master was actually Marika (especially since it is very clear in the aftermath of the DLC we were never part of Miquella's plan (They need to patch one of Miquella's followers into the Radahn festival to tighten up the story a little))

    The Putrescent Knight arena REALLY struggles when you enable Ray Tracing, and this video just makes it more confusing as to why that area is so demanding.
    also that huge Blob type enemy in the Stone Coffin Fissure completely destroys your frame rate. When it attacks my frame rate goes from 100 to 10.
    It's not a stutter or frame time spike. It's an actual frame rate drop for the duration of the attack.

      Wouldn't it make sense RT would cause issues in this area? Light sources are very diffuse coming from multiple angles, and its attacks involve rippling, reflective surfaces for that light to bounce off of (only attacks I can think of at the moment involving liquids where they use reflective surfaces like that instead of having a splash particle effect).
