this is such an interesting way to frame the lore it is rare to see videos covering everything is order like this rather than several videos on each a different topic.
@@CSM100MK2 i actually agree with them tbh, bloodborne is usually segmented not in order or from what i have seen/remember. probably because it usually gets confusing to not backtrack
Hey. Hey. How you doin'? Let us remember that we're here for the love of lore and storytelling. Big thanks goes out to Justin Bregg (www.twitch.tv/justinbregg ) for acting as the Bloodborne Guide Guy. Another thanks goes to Viryl (www.twitch.tv/viryl_tv ) for helping capture Chalice Dungeon footage. More to come! -Tip
Thank you a ton! I found you randomly while trying to decide whether to buy HZD a few years late. You really nail storytelling, and you recognize the good stuff! And you have now covered the single best lore/story/gameplay combo ever released. Imo the deep yet deliberate implications of Bloodborne lore are greater than Dark Souls or Elden Ring, it's a small slice of a larger story and setting that are cosmic in scale. They had to write so much unseen supporting lore just to have continuity for 2 random items or characters. So thank u for doing the best game ever. (I may be a bit biased) A hoonter is never alone.
It's funny, I played the game, didn't get anything, watched one lore video. Apparently I'm now an expert, because I found myself wanting to "correct" you for any differences in interpretation. Silly of me, obviously. Thanks for the video!
There are some bits that I don’t agree with your interpretation but that’s the beauty of these games, everyone has their one story. But I really enjoyed your interpretation of the lore!
"everyone has their one story" Only in the english descriptions, that is unnecessarily vague and in Dark Souls 1 they straight up tell you another story. Japanese descriptions are half literal and direct, half perspectives of people related to those descriptions and it's never something related to the "whole of the story", and rather their take. But i will die on a hill before i see someone searching for the japanese texts. So yeah. "INTERPRETATIONS", i guess.
Bloodborne holds a special place in my heart. When I was 16-17 my brother and I spent at least half of the summer playing through it. That was a great summer.
IT'S FINALLY OUT AHHHHH!!!! Definitely worth the wait! You set up the back story so so well! Although, one thing I would disagree was Ludwig calling for the execution of the Vilebloods. I would say it's mostly the higher echelon of the Healing Church (sans Laurence) who ordered it and Logarius and his men were more than happy to carry it out. Regardless, I'm liking your take on it so far. Can't wait for the next part!
My first experience with Bloodborne was jumping straight into these Chalice Dungeons for the footage. It was rough, but fun to learn. Amazing video as always 👏
To quote a tragic Sith Lord: "I was looking forward to this." :D The time of Soulsborne Lore is nigh! Bloodborne, such an amazing Lovecraftian game, I love the vague lore^^
You found a subbed for life!! I work on the road 50-60 hours of week so I listen to a lot of podcasts and channels like yours! Can’t wait to binge all your content
I really enjoy this. The manner and cadence of the narration makes me think of a scholar, in the remnants of a crumbling library, regaling the tale of their research to the traveller who has stumbled across them. Very fitting for Bloodborne. Fantastic work!
Absolutley LOVE how you approach each game differently and whatever way is best FOR said title. It isn't copy paste like a lot of 'recap' channels. This is a genuine lote channel.
I really like the way you organized it into a definitive story and timeline. Makes it more interesting to digest even if we cant prove a single timeline/narrative true
I gotta say I love your style on these videos after binge-watching all the way to this one while grinding out content in other games. The change of the tone and mood in how you retell the lore and narratives of these games based on whether they play out more as horror stories or children's tales (lowkey felt like I was six again during the Ori video) is all truly a nice touch in presentation.
I love this! Bloodborne is my favorite game of all time. With Lies of P coming out I have been CRAVING new Bloodborne content. So happy I stumbled upon this Eldrich Truth! Bravo!
I love well crafted video game lore. Your channel is exceptional at telling the story of video games in a way that completely eclipses attempts by other creators. I appreciate your approach and that you avoid the pitfall of simply creating an “Explained”-type lore video like so many others. This is my new favorite channel and I’ve been binge watching. Kudos to you.
I'd like to point out to all those interested in Bloodborne lore, I suggest checking out Redgrave's The Paleblood Hunt he really does not get enough credit for his work.
@@kyddkreature9801 There is the audio version and I find it's a great listen just for the narrator. ua-cam.com/video/8ktMg4eQ1G8/v-deo.html&ab_channel=JayBritton
I'm glad this is your next project. I'm not super interested in playing Bloodborne myself, but I'm happy to hear about the lore and weird storytelling that it contains!
Please do a storytelling of the Legacy of Kain. I feel like you would genuinely enjoy the story there is to offer, as it is on a Shakespearian level, and the series is underrated and fading from knowledge
To be fair, I doubt the Pthumerians lived underground... it’s just all that’s left of their civilization are the dungeons deep underground (this isn’t an “um actually” because it’s totally up for interpretation, just wanted to show engagement... this is a great video!)
@johnsilverman656 I always assumed due to them and their ancestors always being pasty that at some point, they lived underground. They started as protectors. It's hard to protect something that's not close.
This was great, loved your narration and thorough clear explanation of confusing aspects of the lore. I’m excited to continue this series even though im quite late I did just finish my first play through of bloodborne a few weeks ago. I’m addicted to this lore.
I usually never comment on videos or channels but this hands down one of my favorite channels. The inflection in your voice is comforting and helps me sleep at night. Thanks for all you do ladies!
This was a really good telling of the events of bloodborne although missing a few things which is inevitable unless this video be hours long but very cohesive and very well done….bravo
I've been watching different bloodborne and darksouls lore vids (outside of playing the games) for a long time, but this is the first lore video I've watched that actually made everything click and make sense inside my head. I feel like I finally understand everything lol 🙌 the storytelling-style this channel uses is suprisingly helpful at breaking things down for my adhd brain while still being entertaining and relaxing to listen to. Absolutely love this channel ❤️
Just discovered your content and this is amazing in so many different ways, and thank you for explaining things the way you do makes it much easier to understand the stories and lore. Please keep it up this is awesome stuff you’re doing !!
Ayy, it’s Bloodborne lore or as I like to call it the lore of the incredibly depressing eldritch abomination infested game. Great vid tip and can’t wait to see more
Not only do you write a great script but you are a Phenomenal storyteller. I started with you on SOMA and will stay as long as you’re here. Thank you for all the hard work TipToe! Fear the Old Blood
goshdarnit I wanted to put these videos on in the background and do other stuff but I keep getting sucked in and just listening and watching the video instead. Good stuff.
This is one of the best and most comprehensive, focused and entertaining bloodborne lore videos I have ever seen. Really well done! 👏🏽 waiting for the next one!
I tend to listen rather than watch videos like these since I'm at work and lemme say, your narration of this world was awesome. If you aren't already, maybe get into audio book narration, you're great to listen to.
This was absolutely amazing! Bloodborne is one of my favorite games of all time and you did it more then justice here! I’m excited for part 2 and to watch more of your upcoming content. 😊
Oh my God, this is so unexpected. I've joined one of your streams and asked about Bloodborne as a video and you said you avoided from soft games due to how annoyingly they convey lore! I'm so glad you made Bloodborne the exception!
Quite the contrary. The player character, in their ignorance, tears Rom a new one and unleashes the nightmare upon the waking world finishing what the School of Mensis started.
The Eldrich Truth: The fact that there are beings who exist on higher planes directly layered on what we humans think of as reality. Such planes can only be accessed through higher brain frequencies (such as dreams).
From what I remember the Fire Emblem series is massive. Are all the games linked? Is there a specific game you'd like me to add to the list? She has talked about dipping her toes into JRPGs recently to see how she likes them and how they'd work as lore videos.
this is such an interesting way to frame the lore it is rare to see videos covering everything is order like this rather than several videos on each a different topic.
untrue...lots of the lore videos go in order of, you know, lore.

But.... Does he have the liquid gold voice that Tip does??
lol the Paleblood Hunt is the most knowned and overated lore post since the hunt began on Reddit. Can relate, I was there.

I'm glad this is your next project. I'm not super interested in playing Bloodborne myself, but I'm happy to hear about the lore and weird storytelling that it contains!
This is such a great way to set up the story. You truly are a amazing storyteller.
Cosmic horror has always had a special place in my heart, and a game like this just inspire me build upon it.
I love hearing you talk about lore. Have you ever considered doing audiobooks?
Please do a storytelling of the Legacy of Kain. I feel like you would genuinely enjoy the story there is to offer, as it is on a Shakespearian level, and the series is underrated and fading from knowledge
You'll be happy to hear the Blood Omen/Legacy of Kain series is on the list 👌
I fucken love this shit your such a good narrator.I know some lore like the back of my hand and I would still listen to you

Discovered this channel a few days ago and rediscovered my love of bloodborne over the weekend. This feels like fate.
Yay. This makes my Monday. Thank you for your excellent work in your videos.
Sweet Jebus... I was left utterly confused by this complete bonkers story.
It seems... that you need more eyes... on the inside
Ayy, it’s Bloodborne lore or as I like to call it the lore of the incredibly depressing eldritch abomination infested game. Great vid tip and can’t wait to see more
This is fantastic! I've been binging your content and you've got a new supporter. Fantastic content! You have a gift!
Wow this is the first time I actually understand more about the lore! Thank you so much, this video was very well made
...I love the way you are framing all of this! I cant waiitt for the next one!
Not only do you write a great script but you are a Phenomenal storyteller. I started with you on SOMA and will stay as long as you’re here. Thank you for all the hard work TipToe!

goshdarnit I wanted to put these videos on in the background and do other stuff but I keep getting sucked in and just listening and watching the video instead. Good stuff.
That was so good 👍👍👍 well put together.
YEAH LETS GO!
Love bloodborne and i love your videos.
This is one of the best and most comprehensive, focused and entertaining bloodborne lore videos I have ever seen. Really well done! 👏🏽 waiting for the next one!
Me watching the 500th video of the Bloodborne lore: Fascinating!!!
Here we go! Fun lore video!.
I tend to listen rather than watch videos like these since I'm at work and lemme say, your narration of this world was awesome. If you aren't already, maybe get into audio book narration, you're great to listen to.
There's another video called "Bloodborne, a World without Hope", which introduced me to this amazing game and its lore.
Good video btw 👍
Feed the algorithm God. This chicka is amazingly talented in her profession here. Thank you Tank for another superbly done video.
OMG this is amazing, thank you!!
Hell yeah, hell yeah, HELL YEAH! Bloodborne content is my drug of choice.
I have now watched this 5 times and going on the 6th. Outstanding job!
Please please do a part 2 I am obsessed with bloodborne lore
This was absolutely amazing! Bloodborne is one of my favorite games of all time and you did it more then justice here! I’m excited for part 2 and to watch more of your upcoming content. 😊
Thanks as always!
Fantastic work on this video!!!
Great vid, cant wait for the next Part!

I love the way this video put everything together!
Amazing work as always Tiptoe! Great video!
Rom was out here doing a solo run against all of the Great Ones and didn’t even get a “thank you” smh that’s tragic
^^^This is the true lore of Bloodborne
Quite the contrary. The player character, in their ignorance, tears Rom a new one and unleashes the nightmare upon the waking world finishing what the School of Mensis started.
I have been waiting for this!!
Can't wait to get home and watch this after work 😁 thank you Tank.
Bloodborne Lore is always a pleasure to read and or listen to. HP Lovecraft would be proud.
Yes grant us eyes. Plant eyes on our brains, to cleanse our beastly idiocy.
I love your content...I'm definitely going to be binge listening to it
I would love to hear her cover child of light or journey sometime. Both are simple games but the worldbuilding in both is amazing…!
You'll be happy to know that Child of Light and Journey are both on the list 👌
This is like you’re reading from a published history book of Bloodborne. Very nice haha
Always interesting to see fresh interpretations on BB lore
so entertaining watching you've videos!
Been waiting for this. Do all the souls Bourne series please.
Great video! Thanks!
IVE WAITED FOR THIS!!!!!
Loving the content!
Here's to you, algorythm gods, makes this channel more recommanded!
The Eldrich Truth: The fact that there are beings who exist on higher planes directly layered on what we humans think of as reality. Such planes can only be accessed through higher brain frequencies (such as dreams).
There will be no escape!
Made my day
Love the video. Great content per always
Finally!!
Thank you😍!
Lovely lore video
Wow the way this was ended was phenomenal
FUCK I love your videos so fucking much they are so well antrated made researched everything. Would love to see a Fire Emblem lore video
From what I remember the Fire Emblem series is massive. Are all the games linked? Is there a specific game you'd like me to add to the list? She has talked about dipping her toes into JRPGs recently to see how she likes them and how they'd work as lore videos.
This is so badass, finally, I might be able to get my girlfriend to absorb the Bloodborne lore and get into it the same way I have!
