OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHH
THE ELDEN RING
Watching Vaati flounder with shitty tips everyone knew since the Sekiro E3 demo was a treat. Shame miyazaki is enabling him further
So there will be no storytelling?
What if Miyazaki said Vaati was a fag in an interview? Would he take his own life after that?
There will be no storytelling and the lore will be 80% fanfiction? Why hire Martin if you're going to outsource the writing anyway?
Vaati is an autistic retard for basing his entire youtube career around a single company.
He doesn't deserve any patreon bucks.
So no actually story, and just flavor text that they will retroactively make canon after the souls autist make 10,000 theory and "lore" videos?
Why doesn't he cover literally anything else besides From games? There are plenty of other games that have lore. He could easily use his same style on other game series like the Elder Scrolls or something.
Was about to ask the same question.
Why even bothered with GRRM?
non-From games are just not very good or interesting
Because that would mean he'd have to do actual research instead of 10 minutes of speculation
Becaues lore in these games are often straight forward and doesnt' have a room for shitty fantasies.
Vaati just takes speculah from Yea Forums and /vg/
>Shame miyazaki is enabling him further
are you retarded
do you think from software thinks about some youtube faggot when they're writing their game
>oh no what will vaati think of this
So there will be no plot?
They should. Youtube personalities have become significantly more important to a game than the game actually being good. A good youtuber can elevate a bad game into meme status. From is an especially egregious case though, since it quickly becomes clear that they not only put significantly more work into the worlds than the creators, but also have a better understanding of it as well.
>Sock of Aldeir, Scion of Light
>This sock belonged to Aldeir, Scion of Light, who used the light to do things related to the light. Also the cycle. He was a big guy and liked to eat a lot of food. Mayhaps there is more to his tale...
>slowed down cutscene of Aldeir with a black and white filter and a whispering Australian/British accent (because Americans find these attractive to listen to for some reason)
Clearly this is an allegory for the loss of one's boundaries (represented by the softness of a sock) and the inner peace Aldeir was granted by his service to the Flame. While it isn't mentioned, it is easy to assume that this sock is silk, which if you're familiar with history, has a strong association with China. While we haven't visited a place based entirely off of China, a large part of China's trade during the Silk Road involved silk and dye, which is poignant when you consider that Aldeir would eventually die - a homophone and obvious connection.
We knew that when they hired Martin.
he's been milking it since ds3. He shilled for ds2 prerelease and that one was shit, he shilled for sekiro and that one was shit. Basically anywhere where bamco thought that they'll need some extra "fanbase" shilling by flying in e-plebs and striking some deals etc, the game turned out to be shit.
the only game that he didn't really cover was Bloodborne, and that one turned out to be a literal modern classic. Based Sony not giving a fuck about e-plebs
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH ELDIN RING
SHATTED
While I doubt they really *care* about Vaati's career, he actually is a part of their marketing; he gets flown out to play demos and shit
Sounds like free advertisement
Just don't talk about the game on Yea Forums. Then Vaati will have no material to steal.
It not like they tried to tell a story in sekiro either
Does he just do Souls lore videos? Why not expand to other lore heavy games?
Souls game have no real lore. Just item descriptions with plenty of nouns, and a few events set in stone. This is good for shitty writers who can only speculate about some deeper, buried plot that doesn't exist.
It's not even his theories lmao. For his Bloodborne and Dark Souls lore vids, he just steals it from lorefags on Yea Forums, /vg/, and reddit.
Great. I always liked the non-intrusive storytelling in BB and DaS (1). Makes the worlds more interesting and mysterious.
He doesn't play other videos games, he's an autist of the Lobos type.
>Rip off of a game made by the same company that made said game, and that has been riping off their own games since the 90's will be simmilar to the game they're ripping off.
Shocking.
>Why not expand to other lore heavy games?
that mean going back to game made in the 80s user
But what about his tax policy?
I doubt you could even imagine it.
sales, isn't he listed as a consultant? doubt that fat fuck will have any proper input desu.
Because there is no other game with threads with anons speculating and discussing lore theories where he can steal material for his videos right now.
Don't fix something that isn't broken.
I see my thread I made the other day has gained progress.
I actually like Lobos, he also always says how he doesn't really give a shit about story in games, he mainly likes games for gameplay reasons.
Lobos his great,although he immediately jumping on the "Sekiro is my favorite FROM game" day two only for it to be completely forgotten kinda irked me. Fuck hype.
I think Vaati does play other games. I think he has grown tired of them, but cannot let go of his only source of income.
You're kidding right? Souls lore is like swiss cheese with more holes than cheese.
>that time when he said Shadow die twice was 100% Bloodborne 2
>that time when he said Déraciné was 100% connected to Bloodborne when Déraciné was just a game similar to the old story from soft games.
I mean, he just said BB was his favourite when it released, indicating he likes faster gameplay. sekiro just upped the speed and removed the stamina which seemed right up his alley.
is deracine just some shitty cinematic vr trash? I know of it but I never actually looked into it.
Yeah, by the publisher.
I've got it, Zelda games. Room for endless speculation and most of it has been done years ago in old forums. Just go to any random town and go oh what does this random squiggle mean? Dig that shit up with occasional references to the historia. Nintendo bucks are always an easy source.
zoom zoom
honestly when he asked that question it just made me wonder whether he understood the absolute barebones plot of dark souls or not.
the god damn world as they know it is ending, gods being dethroned, the history of the old world is almost entirely forgotten, how would the tax policy of Gwyn really affect the story of the game? and from an in-game perspective, assuming some NPC's cared to look into the world's history, why would they care to write down what Gwyn's tax policy was or even focus on bureaucratic nonesense like that when more important aspects of history demand their attention?
didnt whats his name base his entire career on dark souls while banging his waifu just to lose, both his job, home in japan and flop around his youtube career because DS2 was straight forward in his story telling unlike the convoluted fanfic shit that was DS1 all at the same time?
That's literally what I just said.
ENB?
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHH
GOD BLESS YOU AND KEEP YOU
MOTHER MACHREE
>tfw permabanned from Vaatis twitch channel
>never typed there once
God he's such a fragile little bitch.
>little bitch
yep, 5"5 tall irl, or should I say, 5"5 small.
It's similar to the FPS corridor games from soft did back then, but in VR.
so almost no gameplay, but a comfy story.
he bombed a lot , even compared to the other VR games sadly.
How do you get banned without even typing in chat?
I can't even tell if I'm being memed anymore. I'm so tired.
It's a /tg/ meme, a reference to a a GRRM quote about lord of the rings
still cant believe how vaati managed to come in so late and get so many patreon shekels when ENB was tending the youtube admoney farm for years by collecting fanfics and adding his own.
Vaati did Bllodborne?
Do we really need to bring up Shiiti? Can't we just talk about the game rather than an autist who makes up lore and retards who hate figuring things out agree with? I personally like Dark Souls' story telling style, it's very subtle and leaves a lot to interpret and wonder about.
Teach me.
So literally nothing and add a few tidbits of lore onto item descriptions?
he did, that dude is talking out of his ass, vaati even had videos prior to bbs release linking it's game world to demon's souls 'cause Gascoigne says umbasa in the network test.
When did he say it was Bloodborne 2? He certainly didnt when he talked about the announcement trailer?
Nigga everyone had that theory, where do you think vaati got it from
Yes, makes you wonder what GURM did.
Unless all the item descriptions are about food.
the first teaser that released with the arm, he said it's possible to be BB 2
I'm not saying he was original, I'm saying he did make speculation videos prior to its release
Is there a full image of this?
>Vaati's final Dark Souls lore video ends on a discord advertisement that drags on
It was just like Ringed City
Totally unsatisfying for a conclusion
>100% BB2
>Possibly BB2
These are not the same
I probably talked shit about him when he was in another channel watching. People always suck his dick in twitch chat.
Why are people mad that he "stole" theories fron Yea Forums? You're fucking anonymous. You gave up your possible credit to be it.
They aren't mad. But it is still stealing ideas which is very bad and lazy and if you know that this person steals ideas then why are you trying to defend him?
I also never said he claimed it would be 100% bb2, you're just making shit up for argument sake, my whole fucking point is that he covered Bloodborne unlike what that one user claimed. but I wouldn't expect basic reading comprehension from Yea Forums.
Because he has no other talent whatsoever?
>make a career talking about video games
>make a career talking about video game stories
>make a career talking about video game stories from ONE developer
Shambolic.
nope, sorry
Shame.
>A good youtuber can elevate a bad game into meme status.
or in From's case a bad company. I fail to see how the Souls series is any better than the garbage they were churning out beforehand ad I always find it hilarious to see WOW LE FROM MADE THIS GAME XD as if there's been any significant improvement.
Probably had KILLALLMANLETSANDAUSTRALIANS420/69DAYS or something as his handle.
Wait, Shaati is an australian?
The amount of salt Yea Forums produces regarding Vaati will never not amuse me.
Imagine having so much shit taste in videogames
Go home vaati

How could Yea Forums not get assblasted by this?
mat matosis seems like a Yea Forums character that has a fairly successful YouTube channel, but people here love him
>>Gaijins are utterly puzzled at the name and event which is never mentioned anywhere else in the game
>>Several pages worth of people trying to figure out where it fits into the main story
When has this ever happened? When there are discrepancies in the translations, it's usually relegated to the smaller sections of the lore that doesn't impact the plot or the world's history at all.
I'm refering to what was said here
Sorry it's so hard for you to believe I was talking to that poster since that's who I fucking responded to you utter sperg
Happens on every major soulsfag discussion board including Yea Forums every time a DS game is released
>go to the ES wiki
>pick any important historical figure in the lore
>spend 10 min reading it
>Spend a few minutes writing a script which is almost just copy-pasting shit from the wiki
>narrate it and throw up some game footage of a character who vaguely looks like the person hes talking about walking around
Its easy fucking money. I didn't think people went to him for speculation. People go to him because he presents the lore in an "entertaining" way with a smooth voice.
He did good basic lore videos. No one else on here did? Who's to say he wasn't one of the anons who was part of the disscussion. Just seems like typical autists getting mad at people for a flakey reason again
>he shilled for sekiro and that one was shit.
nope, you responded to me, here, retard.
to add to the image you posted, the npc that keeps invading you in the dlc with the blood hammer weapon wears a cleric beast skin over his head. skin looks like it would have been under 8 feet tall.
FUCK VAATI
We a JSF board
No fun allowed fags are worse
Read the reply chain you fucking newfag, holy shit.
zooooom zooooooooooom ZOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM
H-hey guys, w-what about me?
>says read reply chain
>he doesn't read it himself
Jesus Christ's the person you claim you're responding too is no where in our reply chain.
>implying you can't get relatively human sized horned beasts
>even his computer cucked him
Feels bad.
kid got bloodborned
Absolutely kino
>"The scalp of a horrid Cleric Beast, indicating that hunter Brador, a Healing Church assassin, had killed a compatriot.

Post your sis brahh
This has to be bait. Fucking hell, please be bait. You can't be this dumb
ENB is a human cautionary tale
What? He's coming back? based
What's the new Zelda game called?
Elder Scrolls has actual lore though. Dark Souls ""lore"" is retards writing extrapolating fanfic off of item descriptions and recycled assets while pretending they're unraveling a mystery.
Their reward? "Dude do you remember this?" and some autist writing in his invader OC as Priscilla's husband.
Dark Souls has a mostly straight-forward story, how did you guys miss it?
>drops nioh at the 2nd dlc off stream because he got filtered
So this is the power of the hardcore soulsfanbase?
>some autist writing in his invader OC as Priscilla's husband.
is this a reference to something
ENB is the eceleb equivalent of Brendan Fraser. Never seen anyone get so JUSTed in my life. Used to enjoy his old lore vids too
The DLC is pretty hard if you go straight to it after beating the game. Most people had already beaten way of the strong when the DLC came out and had way stronger gear/higher level.
>is pretty hard
True that, but I got through it by just farming equipment from revenants.
I never watched ENB, what happened exactly?
married a chink insectoid
moved to japan
first kid miscarried
they have a second kid
insectoid leaves him and takes the kid
he goes back to america
fin
Hard to know where to start. Big ones I can remember are
>japanese immigrant wife miscarries their second child
>sends him into depression, guy can't play Bloodborne because of the themes
>wife gets green card
>leaves him, reveals baby was aborted
>she gets custody of the daughter they had
I don't keep up anymore since he was reduced to tip-begging on Twitch, but I'm sure there's been more in the years since
You forgot the part where he went on a quest for social justice in his youtube comments, banned everybody for being negative and then disabled comments and a made a reddit page to discuss the youtube videos.
Oh no shit, who would have thunk. They've been doing the same shit for a decade.
>was the first dark souls youtuber because he lived in japan and worked as a teacher there
>years pass and he gets married to a nip woman
>has a kid with her
>comes back to us with her
>she miscarried many times after that but that was a lie
>she was only into for the green card and divorced him soon after
>he still has a year left to pay her alimony
>invades you at Priscilla's tower
>"When Dunnel lost his hideous spouse, he gave his own pyromancy flame as an offering, which transformed into a parting flame. Not long after, Dunnel became a mad spirit, cursed to wander the lands."
the other theory is that he fucked a tree and made Sulyvahn.
okay but how is he someone's OC
>goes to Japan to teach engrish to japs.
>makes videos about souls games because froms release them in Japan earlier
>gets famous for this
>founds a jap girl
>gets a daughter
>jap wife pushes him to move back to US
>did that
>wants to have an another kid
>wife pretends she got a miscarriage several times
>she gets a greencard and fills her papers for divorce
>leaves him alone and takes their daughter
>he cries on stream because of the bloodbourne fetus
Something like that. He also refused to get a real job instead of being a streamer kek. That's probably why his wife divorced him.
Jesus christ
He also developed a game that flopped or was never released at all. I don't remember.
>He is developing
ftfy, he's working on it for years and never gonna finish it because he keeps changing genres
