  1. This is what makes Souls games and a select few Souls likes so damn good in my mind. Some games have excellent gameplay, but the story sucks. Some are the opposite. Very very few have both. A lot of people hate on this game, but I’ve come to love it. You doin this helps, so it’s much appreciated.

  2. So how did the Judge Cleric attain Demi god status and live for over 1500 years while the other two judges didn't? Wasnt the judge cleric just a regular priestesses of Adyr right before the events of her losing her parents? Also who really is Orius? Don't think he created humans otherwise why would he let Adyr waltz in and take control of them? He just seems like a poorly written, one dimensional god and as Adyr says just hiding till some one else does Orius's bidding.

  3. The lore of LotF sadly is very shallow compared to the lore seeping out of every item, place and dialogue in Dark Souls or Bloodborne.

    Demon wants to come to mortal world. Over and over again.

  4. Wow this was such a good explainative lore vid! LOVE listening to all of your lore vids on lotf ever since i first listened to the lore surrounding pieta. Its my most favorite soulslike since the original so it makes me really happy to see another be so passionate and interested in its lore despite the bad stigma the original left behind for many. Keep it up lorebearian!

  5. The canon ending should be a mix of the three, basically resulting in The Putrid Mother devoured Adyr and Axiom, in 2 of the ending She defeats Adyr and in the last She is not defeated. Nothing states that Adyr is able to defeat Her, nor that Adyr would be able to provide a seal like the infant is in ages to come. And who knows if the infant and its successor placed by Orius’ church would be able to seal the Mother after She devoured another god ?

  6. You know, it's kind of insane that one of the core pillars that lead to Mournestead's fall is…Judge Cleric not touching grass. Imagine the lives that could have been saved, the terrors averted, the realms saved if only someone in the Hallowed Sentinels had had the gall to drag her ass out to get some sunlight.
    All jokes aside, I love that you're still doing Lords of the Fallen lore.

    I gotta admit that there's something quite interesting in Adyr's next level pettiness. He could have all the bodies in the world to manifest his mortal avatar, and 1500 years of a grudge leads him to take the body of Iselle. Damn son. There's absolutely no way Mournestead isn't gonna burn in the fires of his revenge.

  8. Lords of the Fallen actually has a good and coherent overarching story and good sub plots aswell. In DS and Elden Ring its not only incoherent but it frequently contradicts ifself. And when you do piece together the story and try to summarize it. You'll realize how terrible it actually is . However the plot story in Elden Ring after the shattering is actually quite good.

  10. So… they went woke to please the woke mob. I played a lot LOF 2023 but never played the original. Thanks, now i realize it. I personally i don't have an issue with strong female characters at all but, i was wondering why there are so many in this game.

  11. Very cool video! Tomorrow I will start playing for last ending and this video added even more hype)
    I would like to see more videos about LOTF and it's characters, like Hushed Saint, Tancred, Harrower etc. Also, it's still unclear for me who was the leader of dark crusaders. It seems like he was only present in trailer, when Dunmire, Harrower and Isaac came to the 'headquaters'.
    Thank you for the content!
