The sage brothers have offered us this gift of knowledge. We shall listen to the tales of dark and fire well into nightfall, until blessed sleep closes our weary eyes. Hush now, children of the Abyss and heed the ancient tale of the Dark Soul.
2:02:32 idk why this makes me emotional… maybe it’s the way the character reaches out, or the way sif’s gaze softens. Such a wonderful thing how emotions can be purveyed by a game with no words even being exchanged.
I’ve tried all of the soulsbourne games but to me there is something so simple yet special about dark souls 1, it’s the only one I’ve beat over and over, and keep coming back to
Before listening I already would like to say that I am incredibly grateful for this and for your work. You have provided me with hours of solace, of the freedom to let go and delve into this great experience that is the lore of DS specifically and Fromsoft in general. Thank you, brothers
Me: I'm off work for the next 3 days, what am i going to do to pass the time? The Brothers Code: Releases an 8 hour plus video on The Dark Souls trilogy. Me: 👀
Thank you for this ❤ I loved your videos on the trilogy, Demon Souls and Elden Ring. The amount of work to compile all the lore bits from the gameplay to item description, NPC dialogue and environmental is impressive.
Ty for creating this! I’m sure it took a lot of work, and signifies a great passion for the story and games which shows in your presentation and detail. Nobody just makes an 8 hour video for something they don’t care about.
OMG I just LOVE the FromSoft community!! Vaati playlists with hundreds of endless soulsborne asmr videos lol!! Gingy’s MUST watch retrospective videos!! Lance and Zullie’s cut content and thought provoking videos!! SmoughTown’s awesome endless topic focused videos!! And ofc BrothersCode lore dives!! So many amazing content creators, creating the most amazing series for us hardcore lore loving SoulsBorne fans!! I sleep to them each night, listen while I’m driving or even when working!! And I can never get enough!! Thank you brothers for all of your hard work!! ❤
Can't wait to see how you will do the same for Elden Ring. It might pose a challenge. And I suppose NightReign will be a different, disconnected story entirely. As for the next suggestion for your story telling, it would be nice to see you take on the Blasphemous series.
There was a time in earth's history when trees were immortal. As nothing had evolved to break them down. Even fallen trees didn't rot. So for millions of years trees knew no true death. At the same time bacteria died of starvation in numbers so vast that no word or phrase would properly convey the loss of life simple and small though it was. Then one day 1 single bacteria just happened to be born with just the right mutations in just the right place. In that moment trees everywhere on earth unknowingly lost there immortality. It matters not how grand an entity is. It only matters that everyone try just a little. Because it may not be me or you or our kids or grand kids but one day someone will be born in just the right place in just the right time in just the right way and with there birth they start the count down on a clock everyone had assumed would never move. Nothing is immortal forever if you see something everyone says can never be changed something everyone says is immortal try once or twice because maybe it is you or maybe your failure will inspire one one to end its immortality. Remember trees were immortal and now they rot in death to serve as nutrients for new life and if one bacteria can change the landscape of a planet because it got lucky and won one fight one time then us humans can achieve anything Nothing is immortal you just haven't found a way to make it fuel your growth yet.
Its just for fun the game is like an appetizer letting us have fun seeing old characters. Don't take it as lore and just as a game that takes the best of all souls games just for fun till the next big project comes out
I heard there’s going to be a lot of lore involved. Nightreign takes place in an alternate dimension of the lands between and the Night Lord can summon beings from other universes. Sounds like they’re going to connect the Dark Souls and Elden Ring story somewhat. It’s by FS so I’m assuming it’ll be great and they will make it make sense
Gwyns Knights were not present when he found the Lord soul.... the opening cinematic is s synopsis, not a literal depiction of the events. Nuance seems to be lost on the internet in 2024.
@rigorm136 Again, it's a synopsis. It's a representation of events compressed for time. So, by that logic, Nito was already undead, the witches had already created their own fire, and the pygmy already gave birth to humanity? Gwyn wasn't in power. There was no civilization before the flame. It was the flame that gave Gwyn lordship. Why do people take everything so literally? They had 2 seconds to represent Gwyn on screen and depicted him as he was remembered instead of how he began. What is shown is not him acquiring the flame. This isn't rocket science, it's storytelling 101. How come we never see Jesus depicted as a child or a teenager?
Through the game? It's an interpretation of the dialogue, cutscenes, item descriptions, worldbuilding, and even the way NPCs are animated. A lot of speculation also.
@therealikitclaw8124 yes but souls games don't tell you the whole story for example elden ring or bloodborne and you must go and watch RUclips to understand them. And i still don't know i see elden ring lore videos that is about 25 hour and still i think that information is not in the game and i don't know how some people have the information about the whole lore cause there is no official book or something like that. Ah

*Best old lady impression*- "Yes, indeed!"
that was so beautiful 🛐
*Fear not the Dark, my friend,*
*And let the feast begin*
Just finished my first playthrough of Dark Souls III literally 15 minutes ago and I go on youtube to see this. Cannot wait to watch this whole thing
Bro me too what. I literally JUST beat soul of cinder
And I just finsihed dark souls 2 yesterday the only one I was missing. Glad they remade this into a whole
"Git Gud" = Strive to beat that which has kept you down, regardless of your failings, regardless of your faults, keep moving..... don't go hollow
Bingo.
Love this!
Glad to know, im not the only one that falls asleep to their videos, their voices and just the lore itself. Is just so relaxing
Best sleep of my life
First Hawkshaw and now Brothers code?!?!?
This is a good week brothers
bitter enemies

welp now theres 2 weeks of dark souls lore for me to watch, how absolutely wonderful ¨̮
Before listening I already would

Thank you, brothers
We appreciate you! ♥
No matter how many lore videos I've seen, or how many times I watch them, I always manage to come back to them. Thank you for this!
This is what I listen to while stocking shelves at work
Me: I'm off work for the next 3 days, what am i going to do to pass the time?
The Brothers Code: Releases an 8 hour plus video on The Dark Souls trilogy.
Me: 👀
i entered only periphiry knowledge of Dark Souls, and boy how that has changed
I’m not sure if it’s just me but when Sif recognizes you and howls it almost sounds like “noooooo”
9 hours!!! My work day is gonna go by quick. Thanks for dropping this!
Didn't expect this scrolling during the halftime of a basketball game, lol!! Dont you dare go Hollow!!
Finally something to sleep to or secretly listen while im working
Almightlyloli collab NOW. The mauler's of dark souls&berserk. I can listen to this all day. 🍻
Finally, I get to binge this without having to click a playlist
Yup I'm keeping a separate tab open for this for when I'm bored. This will keep me going for 3-4 days easily.
The amount of effort put into these videos is enough to keep the age of fire alive for a millennium.
You guys are awesome!! Thank you for making all dark souls lore into 1 big video
You're welcome! Thanks for watching.
Dark souls lore for only my entire sleep schedule?
Thank you for this ❤ I loved your videos on the trilogy, Demon Souls and Elden Ring. The amount of work to compile all the lore bits from the gameplay to item description, NPC dialogue and environmental is impressive.
I want Dark Souls trilogy novelized!
Man, your videos are top tier. enough said
this is actually crazy i just watched the whole dark souls video from 3 years ago yesterday
We in for a treat! Return to the story of Dark Souls🔥
I loved listening to your dark souls vids already and this just makes it easier! Thank you
Guess I know what I’m doing this whole month
I would say "Who'd waste 8 hours listening to dark souls lore when they would know nothing" then I'd tell myself "Us Remember"
Thanks for making another masterpiece. I play the games, then I come here after I finish to appreciate the hard work you do!
You're welcome! Thank you for taking the time to watch our content, it's really appreciated.
@@Thebrotherscode No problem! Is there going to be captions in this one too?
finally, a good nights sleep awaits me 🙌🏼
This video got me through two overtime shifts. Thank you so fucking much.
You're welcome!
Soul = life
Humanity = mind (consciousness + sentience)
Love yalls story telling! Can't wait to watch this!
One last video before bed.
I can't believe I watched all of this.
You're crazy!
Aww man, was it really necessary to push for the ten minute mark for the ad revenue?
Thank you for this. A full Sunday of chores. Put this on a push play. 🙏
Bro just thank you
Thank you for that masterpiece
Nothing like an 9 hours DS story before work
We rise
In jolly cooperation we listen while we sleep

The sheer girth of this video essay is gonna get me to click
About to have the best sleep ever
Ahhh, the good stuff.

Nothing is immortal you just haven't found a way to make it fuel your growth yet.
Very good point and beautifully said!
Trilogy? They never made a second one, they went straight to 3
Dark Souls II hate will not be tolerated! 😭
alright, my new video i listen to as i fall asleep!
And when you wake up
Come sit by the bonfire and rest, and don't you be going hollow now.
Welp this is my whole day
I played the games, never quite understood the details. Thanks!
Lol, you guys gotta be feasting after the announcement at the game awards! 😂
absolutely love your guys content 🖤
We appreciate it! Thank you for watching!
Videos like these really bring the dark souls narrative to life
Good stuff bois, lowkey miss the face cams
Me too... me too. 🥲
Okay mom, one last video before bed.
This is so awesome
Thank you
Are you only going to do souls games if so can you do mortal shell next? Criminally underrated souls like 😊
nice, a long video for the long haul
Don't let this distract you from the fact that the nameless king is in Elden Ring now
Its just for fun the game is like an appetizer letting us have fun seeing old characters. Don't take it as lore and just as a game that takes the best of all souls games just for fun till the next big project comes out

How do you know they weren’t present? It clearly shows they were.

Wow this is quality work here, thank you very much 🙏🥰
This is longer than darkwood
will be eagerly waiting for the elden ring nightreign lore to drop
Just finished the hawkshaw video time to start this
Lets fucking go
This came out just in time
I hope this is easy to follow as someone who’s never played these games
The video is 8 hours and 58 minutes long not 9 hours now I am sad
Sorry... 😭
There is no way they can explain.this in one video oohhhhh....
insane
We shall arise from ash n become kindled into the light brothers in git gud
Liked, now time to watch the video
Ty for this ❤ honestly the best 👌
So i have a question i thought gwynevere was a illusion created by the male son. How did an illusion have children
How do you or anyone else collect these information???
Through the game? It's an interpretation of the dialogue, cutscenes, item descriptions, worldbuilding, and even the way NPCs are animated. A lot of speculation also.

Ah
Hey man I’m not a big fan of these extra short videos. I’d appreciate something a little longer.
