    *I have a confession: I haven't actually played Bloodborne. I loved it until Cleric Beast and then I quit. I just didn't like that boss. This was pre-Elden Ring so maybe I've changed my mind. I used cheats to record that part of the video. I'm sorry for disappointing you all... 😔*
    That being said, I think of Elden Ring 24/7 and so I needed to get a new video out for the DLC. This is mainly an excuse to show off some easter eggs in the DLC that I liked. FromSoft aren't known for their easter eggs, but I managed to find a handful from their past games that I also wanted to show you all. Enjoy!

      The one thing that turns me off from Bloodborne is farming for blood vials. Everything else is fine. It isn't my favorite though. I don't blame you for not wanting to play it. The only thing that got me back into it was my newly jailbroken ps4 and the 60fps patch I installed for it.

    something I've noticed about the way Igon talks, his singular hatred for Bayle, literally willing to throw away his life just to hunt him, having Harpoons......
    Igon strikes me as a reference to Captain Ahab from Moby Dick, his obsession with the white whale taking his whole life (his glorious monologue cursing said beast "from hells heart I stab at thee!")
    also Igons name reminded me of Ishmael too when I first thought of this

    • @FunWithGuru
      @FunWithGuru  6 месяцев назад +20

      I think Igon is a reference to two things. His relationship with Bayle is a reference to Moby Dick's Captain Ahab, and his name is a reference to Aegon. Aegon was the man who rode Balerion the Dread in Game of Thrones.

    • @ad6499

  • @LuigiG145
    @LuigiG145 6 месяцев назад +18

    Here's a couple that weren't mentioned
    1. The lore of souls coming from flame in Dark Souls is probably taken from The Silmarillion, where the souls of the Maia and Vala (and mortals) are taken from the Flame Imperishable.
    2. "Anor Londo" and "Irithyll" borrow from Tolkien's Sindarin elvish. "Anor" means the sun, "Ithyll" is the moon, which matches the look of both locations.
    3. Besides Bayle's name referencing Balerion, Igon's name probably references Aegon I who was Balerion's rider.
    4. The cats with huge teeth in DS1 are almost definitely a reference to Cheshire Cat from Alice in Wonderland.
    5. The names of the Bloodhound and Crucible Knights in Elden Ring reference Geological periods and epochs. Bloodhound Knight Darriwil references the Darriwilian epoch of the upper Devonian. "Ordovis", "Siluria", and "Devonia" are named for the Ordovician, Silurian, and Devonian periods in Earth's history. Trees did not properly evolve yet during these periods which hints that the Crucible knights are older than the Erdtree.
    6. Surprised you didn't mention the parallels between Miquella and Griffith. Story spoilers, probably.
    7. The great katana in the DLC seems to use the moveset of the longsword from Monster Hunter. I've heard people say this is actually just the basic way you use a nodachi IRL, but I cannot find a source or video verifying this. I could easily be wrong.
    8. The Demi-human swordmaster seems to be a nod to Yoda with his acrobatic swordsmanship, a glowing sword, and he can use "the force" too.
    9. Jolan's helmet, the Helm of Night, looks uncannily like Sauron's helmet in Peter Jackson's depiction of him.

    • @FunWithGuru
      @FunWithGuru  6 месяцев назад +2

      Some of these, like the Yoda one, I actually recorded but didn't use them in the final video. Most of them I'd never heard before, so thanks for telling me!
      I'd love to make a much longer video with all these little references, but most of my audience aren't as into FromSoft games as me. I wanted to just showcase a handful of the secrets I think are most notable.

    I literally thought a few days ago while playing the ER dlc that fromsoftware games don’t have the classic easters eggs like borderlands 2 a full room dedicated to minecraft. Would be kinda out of place. But seeing the SotC easter egg made my heart melt. Still my favorite game after all those years. lovely video.

      Thanks very much! Something I didn't mention about that easter egg: To get to it, you have to cross a collapsed bridge. I wonder if that's a reference to the bridge that connects the game's world collapsing at the end of SotC.

      @@FunWithGuru omg yeah you are right. Also in the base game there is an area called "forbidden lands" just like the name of the place you are in sotc. Never looked into the japense names tho. So could just be coincidence + there is no visual correlation between those places. Nevertheless nice :D

    FS Games are intensely self referencial. It makes them highly rewarding to go from their rpgs (Souls, King's Field) to action games (Armored Core) to other stuff (Echo Night).
    And done without ruining the atmosphere.

      It's the one FromSoft game I hadn't even attempted to play. This video was the first time playing it. I thought some of the world design was pretty cool, but I could tell from the very beginning it wasn't as engaging for me. Maybe I should give it a proper attempt though.
