I just realized something super interesting thought I comment about it. In the Nameless King section Vaati is talking about Ricard who allied himself with Serpents after fighting against them. It reminded me of Rykard from Elden Ring who also allied himself with a serpent and let himself eaten by the snake and turned against the Erdtree and the Golden Order.
There is one aspect of Pontiff Sulyvahn’s story I feel many people overlook. On top of the stuff he did it’s very likely he was the who convinced the prince not to link the flame. At Highwall the statue in the courtyard with the first winged knight. Has a depiction of the prince with Sulyvahn’s bracelets and Profaned sword. Lothric is infested with Outrider Knights. As you climb the castle there’s also numerous Profaned Gargoyles. Hidden behind an illusory wall with an Outrider Knight there’s the Soul Stream spell. The description states… “Sorcery imparted by the first of the Scholars, when Lothric and the Grand Archives were but young. The first of the Scholars doubted the linking of the fire, and was alleged to be a private mentor to the Royal Prince.” All these things point to Sulyvahn having been the first scholar. This also isn’t his only bit of influence seen in Lothric. He’s the one that holds power over Irithyll Dungeon and what do we find there? A bunch of maggot corpses from the COTD but that makes sense he’s allied with Aldrich. Then we also find experimented on Dragon slaves but why? This is because Sulyvahn was taking these failed projects off Oceiros’ hands for him. It’s a good way to build up blackmail. The warp for ArchDragon Peak is in Irithyll Dungeon where we find dead Lothric Knights. The same stone tablets behind Oceiros’ boss room can be found in ADP along with the Serpent Men and Drakeblood Knight. I find it ironic the painting the gods created to imprison things they feared. Also spawned the individual that would be their downfall. Like Sulyvahn wasn’t even suppose to be there he wasn’t forlorn.
Honestly, same. He was such an important character that they gave him his own questline in the final DLC of the last game. My opinion of him flipped completely after finishing Ds3
Mati, Congrats on 20,000 subscribers. it has been such a great time to watch you grow, and foster a community of loving and kind person. It has been an honor to be with you since the beginning.
The Patches one goes a bit deeper in the DLC than Vaati mentions. You started Ringed City DLC at the crumbled away spot that Patches would have remembered Greirat being imprisoned in Lotheric Castle, and where you rescued Greirat. Greirat was confident enough of Lothric Castle as someone who wore the armor of a Lothric Soldier. The pilgrim in the DLC was actually the Firelink Shrine Handmaid you shop through. If you collected her ashes, you see her very ring in the icon. The ring of the Priestess, the high priestess of Lothric Castle, only acquired from the Untended Graves version of her, and content with the dark. She long desired the angels if her people in Lothric, and would be passed away being granted her wish. As if unwanting to move on from Lothric, at the very edge of it is where we find Lapp not bothered by such an angel nearby. The old woman even selling his weapon, and the Greatshield he has being the one found at Cathedral of the Deep on the way in. The Greatshield being the Curseward from DS2's Pursuers, said to grant resistance to curse.
Hey Mati, I recommend reacting to the remaster prepared to cry’s, they basically are Vaati explaining the lore with the newfound knowledge from Ds3, and the Sif one will make you cry bro
Mati, as you wonder near the start of the Patches section; there actually is a version of him in Sekiro! It's much less obvious that it's him, but there is a certain bald, shady individual who can become a merchant, who also wears an outfit that some would say had a patchwork design... Make sure to keep an eye out! Also, the Patches section made me realise something: in your DS3 playthrough your character, personality-wise, slowly morphed into Patches, obsessed with kicking everything
I'm still waiting for the Lore and Chill episode for the DLC bosses! As incredible as these characters in the base game are my personal favorite bits of lore is definitely from the DLCs.
I think it's worth clearing up confusion about Greirat's quest. Greirat dies in the spider lady room unless he is saved by EITHER Patches or Siegward. To save him with Siegward, you have to buy the armor from patches, give it to Siegward, Kill Pontiff, send Greirat to pillage Irithyll, and then do not go to the Irithyll dungeon bonfire before you kill a boss. I usually go to Anor Londo and kill Aldritch, which is what Mati did. If you find Irithyll dungeon, it moves Siegward from his Irithyll position near the estus soup to his cell, where he can no longer save Greirat. To save him with Patches, you cannot buy any of the Catarina armor pieces and have to leave Siegward in the well for a little while. Then you have to tell Patches you sent Greirat to pillage Irithyll and kill a boss.
Just found your channel, always dope to see people get into the Soulsborne games. Looking forward to your Sekiro playthrough. That game has my favorite lore slightly behind Bloodborne and then Elden Ring.
I've been binge watching your channel for the last two weeks and what got me hooked was that you have exactly the same reactions to everything as I did when playing these games for the first time. Keep the awesome content up my man!!! Also, you should react to the Dark Souls Summary animated video, it's absolutely hilarious and pretty darn accurate.
So you actually did one of the Anri quest lines right. The Pilgrim that Vaati killed was the assassin that killed Anri in your game. If you kill the assassin before they kill Anri you can fulfill her duty and fight Aldrich together and later find her hollowed in the 2 locations you saw in the video.
The crazy tree lady that attacks you in a beast like feral manner at the bottom of the Ariandel DLC map is a remnant of the cut Witch of Izalith fight from DS1. Before then ended up with the version seen in the final game, they originally wanted her to crawl around the arena and along the walls. I guess they still kinda reused that idea for Bloodborne and the fight with Laurence, but you can still tell that they never really made that style of fight particularly fun. 55:57 - I paused it here so I could get me a drink, and came back to see this ace. We all know where your eyes are.
you probably missed my comment in the original playthru video, but the statue in the corner of the yorshka church is a pilgrim stalking Anri, and after you talk to Anri then leave, the pilgrim kills her and prepares her for the ceremony. But you can kill the statue pilgrim and prevent Anri from dying. The pilgrim drops the Chameleon spell, which is a sorcery that turns you into a static object disguise (such as a statue or crate or something)
Hey Mati! Congrats for DS3 finish and taking the time for lore videos which make all those hours spent on this series more meaningful. DS3 was my favorite watch so far from your channel. Sekiro, in my opinion, is the logical next step in your From Software journey. I’m biased because my journey was the same as yours and Demon Souls is the only one I haven’t done yet. I’ll say just this. Although Sekiro will be a very different experience I hope you appreciate the side step this game does. Just on a gaming level, Sekiro will always be top tier for me. I became a better gamer after finishing it and felt like a parry god by the end. Whatever games you play dude I would just ask this. Choose the games that you’re really excited about. Not the games you think you should play but ones that really excite you. Because it’s your love of the games you play and your interest that has engaged those on your channel.
Brother AGAIN how am I just seeing this now haha?! Thank you so much for the dono man I’m sending a formal complaint to UA-cam for not showing me this 4 months ago haha I appreciate you a lot man. Will do always! DS3 will forever have a special place in my heart those days with the community were so special
1:05:29 so after killing the Crystal Sage if you don’t follow that path to the deacons and instead you go to kill the abyss watchers and you try to go to illrthyl that barrier would block you from going in until you beat the deacons and got the doll. My first playthrough I didn’t follow that path and I went the other way and had to re-track. Haha.
Second play throughs and NG+ is definitely the best part about these games. Once you understand more of the world, even if it’s just limited to what you read and pieced together, it gives you a greater depth and appreciation for the world and bosses. I would absolutely love to see second play throughs! Most of these games I’ve always started with a stubborn run (sometimes in offline) and then I’ll build a second character to really reevaluate the world and what I did previous. 💜
19:36 you’re attitude and personality are definitely what drive people to come back every episode man, always fun engaging and interacting with the videos curious to see what’s next 💜
Yeah, It's either Patches or Siegward that saves Greirat in Irythill. It depends if you save Siegward before that point or not, and if you tell patches
What I absolutely love about this channel is that you care so much about the music and the lore. Not a lot of content creators care that much, which is disheartening!
"Maybe this will be the first prepare to cry that actually makes me cry, I'm kidding, I'm dead inside." This might be the greatest Mati quote to date. Shit cracked me up!
I searched up ds3 lore reaction and this video came on top and I was like I ain't gonna watch the whole video and well here I am after 2hrs. Amazing video dude
Hey Mati, hopefully you end up reading this. Vaati also had some lore videos for the dlcs. I don't know if you intend on watching those or just going straight into Sekiro. They would help deepen your understanding about what exactly was going on in said dlcs.
"There must be something about a second chance at life that causes Lords to fear death. For, like the other two Lords who rose alongside him, Yhorm flees hi duty and settles in the ruined capitol he once called home." Didn't we _just_ talk about how the last time he linked the fire, flame rained from the sky?
Love the lore-thrus! re: Summons - try it out on other playthrus - dont worry about your ego - many bosses (like Midir) are MUCH more difficult with summons because they up the boss’ health when you have help, plus you get the extra story elements!
If I'm correct there are also videos about Gwynevere and her heavenly daughters too which have some very interesting/crucial lore in terms of Dark Souls 3. Definitely hyped for Sekiro!
I've been watching you since Ds1, Ds2, Ds3, which I've played, and I'm even sad that I won't be able to watch you anymore, because I haven't played Sekiro yet and I don't want to spoil my surprise, I'm currently fighting Elden ring for the first time. I really wish you a lot of followers, because your positivity and sincerity are valuable, don't lose it!
I recently finished yet another play through of DS3 after a few years because I had forgotten how good it was while watching your experience with it. You are absolutely right. Your next play through will be even more magical now that you understand all the details of its bosses and characters. 10/10 recommend it my good sir.
1:07:58 i couldnt help trying to imagine what actor could best portray p.sully's villainous vibes in a movie that will never happen anyway lol. Charles Dance from game of thrones has my vote, but i could also see Ian McShane or Crispin Glover rocking such a role as well.
Made it to the end! lol. Of the souls game, Sekiro is the only one I have not played or watched a playthrough off. So seeing your upcoming videos will be watched with glee.
I strongly recommend you watch some of Ymfah’s videos on all the games you’ve played so far, especially “pacifist Bloodborne” and “a beginners guide to Ds1”, but also any of the Ds3 videos that take your fancy
Took out Midir, NK and Gael today. Oh, and went back to join that one covenant- the point in the game where those two beasts are a fair challenge had apparently long passed. >___> I got destroyed so bad the first time through I was afraid to ever go back. I'll do Demons' Souls while you're doing Sekiro. I never really planned to play it so I watched some stuff on it a long time ago. I remember some stuff vaguely but none of the layouts or ambushes. But I like your stuff so much I decided if I'm going to ever play it I should get ahead of you. Had to tell the algorithm to NOT show me your stuff for DS3 which was pretty sad. AFAIK it's toxic runbacks and gimmicky bosses. heh. As should be expected of the oldest game. You get to enjoy the exact opposite experience in Sekiro. =P Looking forward to it!
34:47 that’s one of the most common misunderstandings in the game, Gwyn actually died ( linked the flame) for a very long time before Nameless King was stripped of his deific status
Mati you have to watch the DLC video from Vaatividya - If you don't want to have a short Lore & Chill maybe consider adding it before the playthrough in the Sekiro Vid. Either way you have to watch it, especially since you liked Gael so much. Vaati paints perfectly the picture that buttresses the point that Gael is the perfect final boss to the series.
you should have a look at the revised lore about Knight Artorias (post DS3 release) it explains a lot about the first age of gods and what was the deal with the great wall and how the hollow curse was created
Good luck in your next endeavor, I did not play demon souls, sekiro nor elden ring yet so I gotta take a chill pill now but gonna come watch after I beat each of those :D
You definitely should watch the videos for the DLC bosses. Also, you should watch the Legend of Artorias remastered version, you saw the original video VaatiVidya did covering the topic but the remastered version is his best video ever imo.
Patches is the furtive pigmy: he's unbreakable, doesnt need a strong reason to avoid hollowing, clearly stronger than he looks, he is elusive and furtive, 'humanity' does not affect him despite him being the most humane and deep down he is likely to share power than take as it is known the pigmy gave his flame to all humans and he sees darkness with great clarity.
@@matiasgago you're gonna regret saying that sekiro is so freaking hard compared to other souls games you're not ready for the pain it's just too much😵
TOTALLY off topic but, It makes me so happy to watch you go from like 7k subs to 20k. You truly are the goat mati❤️ thank you for being here through the hard times we face in life. We love you!❤️
Mati, maybe a lot of folks have told you this but, perhaps after finishing with Sekiro and Demon's Souls, you would consider playing " The Convergence" mod for Ds3, it basically made Eldenring before ER was a thing. it's quite the overhaul of Gameplay, Areas, Bosses, and Classes. I think it would attract a lot of people who primarily came to your channel for Souls content.
I have always done a sympathy playthrough of the games you are playing alongside you. Sekiro is the one that absolutely beat me to a pulp and I couldn’t do it… until now. I had a lot of trouble with an early boss. Like 50 attempts. This time? 2!!! I’m enjoying the hell out of this game again. It’s fkng fantastic and I can’t wait for you to start. I am going to give you two tiny pieces of non-spoilery advice I wish I had been given. 1. Deflect deflect deflect!!!!! 2. Hold down L1 to recover your posture faster. Other than that, it’s on you. Such a fun, funny, challenging game. It’s also breathtakingly beautiful in parts. My advice is to do the Japanese version with subtitles. The English version is really cringey at some points.
So obviously you're past Dark Souls 1 but I heavily recommend the remastered versions of his Dark Souls 1 videos. He includes information from Dark Souls 2 and 3 and it just fleshes them out even better. Plus, the production is excellent on them. Edit: Doh, just got to the part of the video where you said you know these exist. Ignore me! Lol
WHO'S READY FOR SEKIRO Thinking of playing it in Japanese how do y'all feel about that?
Appreciate y'all being here as always
Playing in Japenese is definitely the best.
Yes
Gotta do Japanese. I did both and it is better in Japanese imo.
It's definitely better in japanese with subtitles. It just fits the atmosphere and themes of the game just like English fits the medieval theme of DS.
I'm ready. As someone that was ridiculously terrible at the game, I'm really interested to see how you get on.
Mati and Vaati the only guys I'm down to cry with.
Welcome to the cry circle
@@matiasgago the cry guys
"I'm kidding, I'm dead inside"
Relatable as always, Mati
That hit me to my core I feel as if all souls players are a bit dead inside
I just realized something super interesting thought I comment about it. In the Nameless King section Vaati is talking about Ricard who allied himself with Serpents after fighting against them. It reminded me of Rykard from Elden Ring who also allied himself with a serpent and let himself eaten by the snake and turned against the Erdtree and the Golden Order.
I cannot wait for Sekiro Bro. You have made one of the best communities on youtube and I am so excited for it to grow. Keep doing your thing man!
Thank you my man it's really on you guys who keep coming back and support that help me grow this awesome community
Agreed!
Prepare to cry is the best lore series in my opinion, congrats on 20k as well!
Agreed! and thank you bro such a crazy milestone. shoutout to all of you for tagging along in this journey
There is one aspect of Pontiff Sulyvahn’s story I feel many people overlook. On top of the stuff he did it’s very likely he was the who convinced the prince not to link the flame.
At Highwall the statue in the courtyard with the first winged knight. Has a depiction of the prince with Sulyvahn’s bracelets and Profaned sword.
Lothric is infested with Outrider Knights. As you climb the castle there’s also numerous Profaned Gargoyles. Hidden behind an illusory wall with an Outrider Knight there’s the Soul Stream spell.
The description states…
“Sorcery imparted by the first of the Scholars, when Lothric and the Grand Archives were but young.
The first of the Scholars doubted the linking of the fire, and was alleged to be a private mentor to the Royal Prince.”
All these things point to Sulyvahn having been the first scholar. This also isn’t his only bit of influence seen in Lothric. He’s the one that holds power over Irithyll Dungeon and what do we find there?
A bunch of maggot corpses from the COTD but that makes sense he’s allied with Aldrich. Then we also find experimented on Dragon slaves but why? This is because Sulyvahn was taking these failed projects off Oceiros’ hands for him.
It’s a good way to build up blackmail. The warp for ArchDragon Peak is in Irithyll Dungeon where we find dead Lothric Knights. The same stone tablets behind Oceiros’ boss room can be found in ADP along with the Serpent Men and Drakeblood Knight.
I find it ironic the painting the gods created to imprison things they feared. Also spawned the individual that would be their downfall. Like Sulyvahn wasn’t even suppose to be there he wasn’t forlorn.
My man is absolutely flabbergasted by the start of the nameless king's vid xD😅
The unbreakable patches video made him my favorite character of the series. So I was beyond hyped to stumble across his boss fight in elden ring.
He's honestly so goated all of a sudden I dont hate him
Honestly, same. He was such an important character that they gave him his own questline in the final DLC of the last game. My opinion of him flipped completely after finishing Ds3
Congrats on the 20k subs man. Keep it up!
Thank you so much bro! 20K special coming soon If I can ever get around to it before 21k 😅
Take your time king, we're all here for the ride 🎉
28:27 Mati: Maybe it won't make us cry.
28:35 *Tears of joy*.
Mati, Congrats on 20,000 subscribers. it has been such a great time to watch you grow, and foster a community of loving and kind person. It has been an honor to be with you since the beginning.
❤
If you don’t plan on doing the DLC lore on the channel I really recommend looking into it on your own time. It’s fantastic!
LETS GOOOO! PRAISE THE SUN! LONG LIVE MATI
LONG LIVE THE COMMUNITY
I also heavily recommend the DLC lore, especially everything around Gael
The Patches one goes a bit deeper in the DLC than Vaati mentions.

The best Souls content channel right now for sure
Naw this made my day bro
20.3 k subscribers!!!!!🎉🎉🎉🎉 when i started watching it was around 8k i think
Just found your channel, always dope to see people get into the Soulsborne games. Looking forward to your Sekiro playthrough. That game has my favorite lore slightly behind Bloodborne and then Elden Ring.
Finished up this video on the 15th :)) which happens to be my birthday! Thanks for the wonderful year and some change!! Excited for Sekiro!
I've been binge watching your channel for the last two weeks and what got me hooked was that you have exactly the same reactions to everything as I did when playing these games for the first time. Keep the awesome content up my man!!!
Also, you should react to the Dark Souls Summary animated video, it's absolutely hilarious and pretty darn accurate.
56:00 😂 Vaati just couldn't help himself. And Mati's face had me rolling.
man i love your outro music, and how you thank the outro gang, it always makes me feel special for watching from start to the last second.
Yessir another lore and chill, always at the right time
It arrives precisely when it needs to
my dream is that you could upload videos every second bc they are so good😃
Lore & Chill!!! We love to see it
The chillest place on the internet ™
Bro, I was holding back tears at the end of Patches' prepare to cry, only for Vaati to make me burst out laughing with that Skype comment.
You really should also do the lore of the ringed city part 1 and 2 it’s great
I love the theories that ornstein is the dragon who the nameless king rides on. And the theory that aldrich might just be smough.
You can get Ludleth dialogue by killing him, since he respawns just like the fire keeper, the shrine handmaiden or Andre
So you actually did one of the Anri quest lines right. The Pilgrim that Vaati killed was the assassin that killed Anri in your game. If you kill the assassin before they kill Anri you can fulfill her duty and fight Aldrich together and later find her hollowed in the 2 locations you saw in the video.

@@matiasgago Haha. It’s all good man. You’re a busy dude! Glad you’re feeling better. Everyone missed you
Congrats on 20k! Quickly have become one of my favorite UA-camrs to see upload and interact with!
1:05:29 so after killing the Crystal Sage if you don’t follow that path to the deacons and instead you go to kill the abyss watchers and you try to go to illrthyl that barrier would block you from going in until you beat the deacons and got the doll.

19:36 you’re attitude and personality are definitely what drive people to come back every episode man, always fun engaging and interacting with the videos curious to see what’s next 💜
Yeah, It's either Patches or Siegward that saves Greirat in Irythill.
It depends if you save Siegward before that point or not, and if you tell patches
I love how Andre calls Hawkwood: "Crestfallen Arsehole"
What I absolutely love about this channel is that you care so much about the music and the lore. Not a lot of content creators care that much, which is disheartening!
100% this. Love this guy for those exact reasons. 👍
"Maybe this will be the first prepare to cry that actually makes me cry, I'm kidding, I'm dead inside." This might be the greatest Mati quote to date. Shit cracked me up!
I searched up ds3 lore reaction and this video came on top and I was like I ain't gonna watch the whole video and well here I am after 2hrs.
Amazing video dude
Hey Mati, hopefully you end up reading this. Vaati also had some lore videos for the dlcs. I don't know if you intend on watching those or just going straight into Sekiro. They would help deepen your understanding about what exactly was going on in said dlcs.
Noice! I wish mati also reacts to ds3 parody "Dork Souls 3". It's amazing work by Matthew Shezmen.
Yes yes haha. I laughed so hard at that 😂
I've heard so much about it we will for sure be watching that in the future
"There must be something about a second chance at life that causes Lords to fear death.

I really wish you a lot of followers, because your positivity and sincerity are valuable, don't lose it!
I recently finished yet another play through of DS3 after a few years because I had forgotten how good it was while watching your experience with it. You are absolutely right. Your next play through will be even more magical now that you understand all the details of its bosses and characters. 10/10 recommend it my good sir.
I’m so ready for sekiro, can’t wait to watch you play, glad I found your channel😚
1:07:58 i couldnt help trying to imagine what actor could best portray p.sully's villainous vibes in a movie that will never happen anyway lol. Charles Dance from game of thrones has my vote, but i could also see Ian McShane or Crispin Glover rocking such a role as well.

Dont forget the Prepare To Cry The Children Of Chaos!! Mix of DS 1 AND DS3 with that one and its one of Vaati's masterpieces.
Another classic Lore and Chill. You should do the rest of DS3 when you can, but great stuff as always, all the way to the end.
Well, I can tell that the story of Anri always breaks my heart. My tears are endless.
I strongly recommend you watch some of Ymfah’s videos on all the games you’ve played so far, especially “pacifist Bloodborne” and “a beginners guide to Ds1”, but also any of the Ds3 videos that take your fancy
28:52 - 29:00 : Mati trying really hard to not stare at the center of his screen. 😆
You might be wondering which lord youre tied to.
Youre tied to Prince Lothric
Yeah, when he didn’t link the fire he caused everything to go to shit 😂
Gwynevere caught ya off guard,with those 😂
I feel like the friend that Yhorm lost was Siegward who died and then was returned by the curse
Banger content brother, much love to you
I would be nice to see Mati react to ThePruld’s “We are the Souls” song. I definitely cried listening to that.
Lore and chilllllll!!! Lets goooo!
Took out Midir, NK and Gael today. Oh, and went back to join that one covenant- the point in the game where those two beasts are a fair challenge had apparently long passed. >___> I got destroyed so bad the first time through I was afraid to ever go back.
I'll do Demons' Souls while you're doing Sekiro.
I never really planned to play it so I watched some stuff on it a long time ago. I remember some stuff vaguely but none of the layouts or ambushes.
But I like your stuff so much I decided if I'm going to ever play it I should get ahead of you.
Had to tell the algorithm to NOT show me your stuff for DS3 which was pretty sad.
AFAIK it's toxic runbacks and gimmicky bosses. heh. As should be expected of the oldest game. You get to enjoy the exact opposite experience in Sekiro. =P Looking forward to it!
My run where I did every side quest and summoned every available NPC was my favorite.
Always enjoy your Lore n Chill videos. You're reactions are great to watch
Man I live for these lore and chill episodes. Such a perfect ending to the series
34:47 that’s one of the most common misunderstandings in the game, Gwyn actually died ( linked the flame) for a very long time before Nameless King was stripped of his deific status
Mati you have to watch the DLC video from Vaatividya - If you don't want to have a short Lore & Chill maybe consider adding it before the playthrough in the Sekiro Vid. Either way you have to watch it, especially since you liked Gael so much. Vaati paints perfectly the picture that buttresses the point that Gael is the perfect final boss to the series.
12:25 I’m still waiting on you to watch this ending bro 😂💯
That one was a doozy for me too.. :)) I'm choosing to focus on Kermit drinking that TEA!
you should have a look at the revised lore about Knight Artorias (post DS3 release) it explains a lot about the first age of gods and what was the deal with the great wall and how the hollow curse was created
Good luck in your next endeavor, I did not play demon souls, sekiro nor elden ring yet so I gotta take a chill pill now but gonna come watch after I beat each of those :D
You definitely should watch the videos for the DLC bosses. Also, you should watch the Legend of Artorias remastered version, you saw the original video VaatiVidya did covering the topic but the remastered version is his best video ever imo.
Patches is the furtive pigmy: he's unbreakable, doesnt need a strong reason to avoid hollowing, clearly stronger than he looks, he is elusive and furtive, 'humanity' does not affect him despite him being the most humane and deep down he is likely to share power than take as it is known the pigmy gave his flame to all humans and he sees darkness with great clarity.
Can't wait to see some "Prepare to Cry" videos about Sekiro on your channel.
Although, the game itself makes a grown man cry anyway.
First! That Hat is AWESOME my dude.
Thank you bro 😅
Great timing with this video ❤
I gotchu DeeDee
Yess.... So excited for sekiro... my favourite fromsoft game alongside DS3...lots of imminent suffering incoming!!
I'm ready bro bring on the pain!
@@matiasgago you're gonna regret saying that sekiro is so freaking hard compared to other souls games you're not ready for the pain it's just too much😵
@@Darkeater_MidirI actually found sekiro to be the easiest one in the series
With the exception of the final boss, that shit was pain. 100% worth it tho
@@abdulmannanbabar8020final boss is very easy... Overhyped... Demon of hatred and inner owl are the hardest by far
Sorry I'm late. Had to grab a box of tissues real quick. Ready to go now 💪😭
I would love to see you reacting to the "Dork Souls" series by Matthew Shezmen. The timing would be perfect, now that you have finished DS1, 2 and 3.
TOTALLY off topic but, It makes me so happy to watch you go from like 7k subs to 20k. You truly are the goat mati❤️ thank you for being here through the hard times we face in life. We love you!❤️
Are we gonna do some Elden Ring lore and chill sometime? Maybe after the DLC gets a release date or something like that?
Been waiting for this yessss 🎉🎉
It's chill time
I am DOWN for this, Vaati is the goat with his lore
Great video man almost got me
This is such a relaxing video
Gotta have that dlc lore and chill ASAP ❤
Mati, maybe a lot of folks have told you this but, perhaps after finishing with Sekiro and Demon's Souls, you would consider playing " The Convergence" mod for Ds3, it basically made Eldenring before ER was a thing. it's quite the overhaul of Gameplay, Areas, Bosses, and Classes. I think it would attract a lot of people who primarily came to your channel for Souls content.
I have always done a sympathy playthrough of the games you are playing alongside you. Sekiro is the one that absolutely beat me to a pulp and I couldn’t do it… until now. I had a lot of trouble with an early boss. Like 50 attempts. This time? 2!!! I’m enjoying the hell out of this game again. It’s fkng fantastic and I can’t wait for you to start.
I am going to give you two tiny pieces of non-spoilery advice I wish I had been given.
1. Deflect deflect deflect!!!!!
2. Hold down L1 to recover your posture faster.
Other than that, it’s on you. Such a fun, funny, challenging game. It’s also breathtakingly beautiful in parts. My advice is to do the Japanese version with subtitles. The English version is really cringey at some points.
good stuff. love the vati vids
30:52 Good for killing dragons, yes…. And who would’ve known it does great at killing serpents too 😉
Ok ok, I'll watch this, but let's get on with Sekiro!!! .. I'm so excited!!
Oh it's coming 😏
You need to watch Tarnished Archeologist… If you haven’t already. Awesome Elden Ring lore.
So obviously you're past Dark Souls 1 but I heavily recommend the remastered versions of his Dark Souls 1 videos. He includes information from Dark Souls 2 and 3 and it just fleshes them out even better. Plus, the production is excellent on them.
Edit: Doh, just got to the part of the video where you said you know these exist. Ignore me! Lol
love your vids im new but have loved your ds3 playthrough
