The shattered Lord Vessel most likely explains how you are able to fast travel since the very beginning of the game.
And also why the Old Souls have the Lord Souls when you beat them on NG+. Maybe this was included to what King Vendrick stole from the giants.
Or they just made a cheap asset reuse like they did with Ornstein.
TheMrDaBigD Agreed. Like 75% of Dark Souls 2 is copy/paste. Not that that is a bad thing.
Perhaps. Though if it's true as a lot of NPC dialogue implies that Drangleic was built on top of Lordran, then Majula was likely built on top of Firelink Shrine and whoever lived in that mansion before found the Lordvessel and kept it. Who knows?
"We want the Skyrim audience" explains fast travel.
And here is the 11th thing you didn't know:
Enemies stop respawning when you kill them ten times BUT if you kill the three pigs in Majula ten times,
two slightly bigger pigs spawn instead who can be killed 10 times. Then a single big (and strong) pig spawns who can only be killed once and he will drop three cracked red eye orbs.
+SashaSexyfur I hate those pigs... this is even more reason to hate them.
Seriously, after trying to get the Pickaxe weapon, failing several times because the pig pushed me off a cliff, I hate pigs now.
lol
SashaSexyfur yeah pigs do that
Don't you have to be in the Company of Champions cone any though? Correct me if I'm wrong
SashaSexyfur I think it's 12
From a frenchman to the world: Le désir de vivre.
This is not a popular book. It's not famous either. It was written in 1907 and is mostly considered an antiquity made out of paper rather than a story made of words. It's extremelly difficult, even on the internet, to find someone who read the book. One who did states that the story is predictable, simple, and mundane, but that it is easy to read. One summary says "Pathétique histoire d’une jeune provinciale venue imprudemment à Paris et dont la vie, toute de lutte et de misère, est pourtant égayée d’une lueur d’amour", which means: "The pathetic story of a young country-girl who came to Paris uncarefully and whose life, full of strife and misery, is made happier by a glimmer of love".
What does strike about this book is the irony of the title, as the author died in 1915 during the first world war.
As I understand it, the developpers who put the book in the game probably didn't know what it was about either, but knew about the title and the author. I think it might be used as a statement on the very nature of the curse and on your own backstory. In dark souls I, the gods were ready to do anything to live just a little bit longer. To lenghten an obsolete age. And here, so does vendrick. So do you; killing anything in your way on a hearsay that souls would mend your ailling mind.
And so do we in real life; far outliving the age our nervous system was designed to bear, and finishing our lives in "undead asylums", empty shells with eyes like dead glass... Hollowed out slowly until the sound of our own children calling our name becomes just a noise... And in this slow frustrating death, you can do nothing, but shout in anger at those who can't help you either. Perhaps if you're lucky you have the superior gift... A simple pendant with no effect.
Even so, pleasant memories are crucial
to survival on arduous journeys.
"I don't want to die, I want to exist. I would sacrifice anything, anything at all for this. It shames me, but it is the truth. Sometimes I feel obsessed... with this insignificant thing called "self". But even so, I am compelled to preserve it. Am I wrong to feel so? Surely you'd do the same, in my shoes? Maybe we're all cursed... from the moment we're born..."
GregTom2 Are you quoting the book, paraphrasing Lucatiel, or both?
JusticeWarlike sorry that was lucatiel
That was depressing to read even if only half of it made sense in English.
GregTom2 so true, really liked your comparison to the real world, as it is really like this, I am having a problem a little bit similar with my grandpa, like being hollow.
The child herald is actually in the game, she gives you the feather in the Dragon Aerie. This is proven because in the Aerie she is shorter, has a higher-pitched voice, as well as the dialogue that she tells the player.
nobody ever said greater truth... well done! actually i think the same child voice is used somewhere in Milfanito part as well
i noticed that last week, lol (that she is shorter in Dragon Aerie)
Wow, i was there yesterday and was like "oh, i never realized how short she is", but actually she is shorter in that area?
0:41
*Hello,would you like to hear the lore of this land?*
“I know this is hard to believe but we’re actually standing an-“
*squish*
*LIGHTNIIIIIING*
(before they nerfed it)
ah yes, MaatiMovie
I learned through #1 that there was an estus flask shard in the well...
Well did you like the video?
PlagueDoctorLove I'll never tell :P
+Kratos Aurion Plays im on NG+ and didnt no that... i suck
awww you need to be more curious :-)
Really? I thought it was common knowledge. As for your name: you better damn well be a great voice actor or so help me i will not enjoy your content
When he killed emerald Waifu I considered suicide
Mason Howells I would have had a heart attack if it's the Plain Doll
Mason Howells made me so sad
did you commit sudoku?
Mason Howells I wasn't watching for the whole thing, did he kill the guy with best accent? ( He said something like "Onlae a troo swordsman tan tease oot its strength")
Cheesio Benhart?
I felt a twinge of sadness when you killed the Herald... She's so good to you :'(
+The Arkham Sandwich She also didn't fight back at all, unlike the merchant and blacksmith.
+southparkkenny2 Right? I felt bad when I killed slaughtered the town on a character I decided I didn't wanna play anymore... stupid cat kept laughing when i tried to damage it
No, no she's not. She is a dependapottamus who can still somehow win the footrace to these distant, dangerous places. Oh, and she waits until Dragon Aerie to give you the feather of infinite teleportation; I'm aware the purpose gameplay wise is for balance so that Homeward Bones are not useless (and presenting the survival element that they are a finite item), but this does still mean the little horse but hole was holding out on us.
I remember being so pumped after killing those pigs for the first time, took me like 10 minutes, and after that I made a warcry I procaimed myself pig slayer.
Nice! I'm so glad of these! There is also the odd porcine shield too! So that could be a character that appears or behaves like a ferocious boar!
@@MineSlimeTV Your innocence and happiness from responding a 7 year old comment with such joy, restored my faith in humanity.
i didn't learn anything new but i refuse to dislike the video
It was a nice video. That's alright.
Liar detected.
I think having "The Desire to Live" in the Duke's Archive is pretty fitting, considering what Seath's whole motivation was.
The Emerald Harold does have 2 voices, when you visit the dragon shrine. You know, the part where she gives you the aged feather, in that part she is visibly shorter then you, in majula shes just slightly shorter but during that part and also when you make it to the dranleigc castle she is also shorter then usual. Lastly when you see her by king vendrik at those catacombs (forgot the name to that place) Plus her voice sounds slightly diferent. Just thought I should point that out.
Your chanel is seriously my favorite place to indulge in darksouls content.
Thank you for the great videos.
Yay! You're welcome
VaatiVidya Where is the dark souls 3 things you may have missed?
VaatiVidya The theory with the map of drangleic and the map of boletaria (Demon souls) is actually pretty awesome (even when the DEVS say that DeS and DaS are not in the same world). Because in demon souls, there is a destroyed archstone in the nexus, and this destroyed archstone would have lead the player to the kingdom of the three giants. And... well, betwen boletaria and drangleic is a big sea on the map you comparised at 4:40 and, what if the giants from the lands of demons souls attacked drangleic, because Vendrick came across the sea and destroyed/took their archstone? And that is 1. why the archstone to the kingdom of giants in demons souls is destroyed and 2. why the giants came across the sea, and from where they came! (Sorry for my bad english. I hope i could explain to you guys what i mean)
That by far is a very good speculation, now I have more questions then answers lol good show
Sorry for giving you more questions :D I also have a theory of, why the flame in Dark Souls faded. You know, when Heide is the place, where Gwynevere travelled to with her husband, the god of flame, it is just logic that the flame in Lordran is fading, when the god of flames is missing to care about the flames. That is also the reason why the bonfires say: "far fire (raw translation. in german: Fernes Feuer") I think that the flame went with the god of flames to Drangleic, and left the place of Lordran. Because, you can see, the flame in Heides flametower is burning pretty strong, even though heide was swallowed by the sea. so, what I think is: The flame started fading, because the god of fire left Lordran. And Gwyn, the lord of sunlight, tried to takeover the duty of guarding the flame, but he couldnt keep it kindled, because he was not powerful enough to. I love making these theories about DS and DS2 :D
It's all good, that's why I like the Souls series it has a sense of mystery that will never, I feel be fully answered. that's pretty good, but what about the Herald's statement she states that Nashandra covets the first flame?... if this is so I thought the four great beings of Ds held these or fragments of the first flame, see I'm lost all over again and feel I'm back to square one when I had thought I understood, OMG Souls will be the death of me man I swear
a1kh3m15t031 Interesting thought, because that first flame is essentially put together again in the lordvessel in dark souls (Minus the pygmy). However I have seen many theories that Nashandra is actually a piece of Manus (the pygmy) who still lives on. So does that mean she obtains the others to rebuild hers? That explains why you find the lord vessel destroyed in Mejula.
Aaron Dias Well, just in theory, could one "rebuild" the soul of manus? It was only made from humanity, so if one gathers enough humanity, can he "recreate" a duplica or even the original soul of pygmy? (manus) would be an interesting guess, which would also give a reason, why Nashandra slays humans, lets them turn hollow and loves the dark. (Also the crushed lord vessel in Majula)
9/10 never came to the armorer with 0 souls
Mabey he wasant prikey enough I killed him and didint know this so I'm sad
"Le désir de vivre" (1907) is about a young provincial woman who rashly goes to Paris to change her existence. There, she leads a pathetic life, struggling against misery but she falls in love with a man from a wealthy family. This story isn't a fairy tale and doesn't end in happiness.
The author died during WWI, so his books and himself aren't common nor well-known nowadays. Title aside, I can't really understand how From Software knew about this book ^^
Thanks, was about to look for a plot summary for the book :-)
"And now you know, and I can die with hope in my heart..."
what a brilliant book to reference in the souls games
I couldn't agree more.
Because of COURSE the book ALSO has to be depressing as hell. xD Oh Dark Souls, how we love to hate thee. Haha
"French VaatiVidya fans, all 3 of you"
Lol
Im the third
With that small map connection to the cutscene in Demon's Souls, it could mean (if you were right about Drangleic being just across the sea from Demon's Souls areas) that the Giants we fight came from the land of the Giants in Demon's Souls. The Giants' Archstone was destroyed as to not let Dark prevail through into the Nexus, meaning the Giants became corrupted. And we can see from the Abyss that FROMSOFT kinda takes corruption as a dark purple color. So happens that the Giants in Dark Souls 2 are dark purple, maybe the Giants that crossed the sea are not Gwyndolin and her subjects, but are the Giants from Demon's Souls. Maybe Vendrick went to Lordran and became the Dark Lord and did not trust the Primordial Serpents so he stole something and went back to Drangleic. Maybe it was Gwyndolin and her subjects. Any of these things could possibly be. But for eternity we wonder.
I personally believe that Demon's Souls is linked to Dark Souls but the developers just aren't allowed to verify it because of copyrights and such.
Amethyst Spark That too. Sony owns the IP for Demons Souls so to bring Dark souls to PC&Xbox they had to drop Demons Souls IP to Sony.
I THINK From likes to hint to Demons Souls, but can´t and now don't want to tie them together.
Huh, that's a good point. Sad we never got to see the giants in Demon's Souls :( pretty sure they were cut for development time reasons.
Well don't say that :) There is rumour going on that Sony is making Demos Souls 2 but nothing is confirmed yet.
Herra Vesinokkaeläin It'd be nice if Sony is pushing for Demon's Souls 2, but if they have another team doing the work other than From (and, more importantly, other than Miyazaki and the rest of his lead design team which was removed from the Dark Souls 2 dev team), then I'll be a sad panda.
You know, I sure wish they'd at least port Demon's Souls and/or Dark Souls to Vita :P
Vat, I have fond memories of having this video queued up in the background while beating DS2. I love all your content and it definitely kept me from going hollow during tough times in DS AND IRL
I'd love if this game had a huge secret that no one will find for a while like the Arkham City easter egg in Arkham Asylum
just some ramble Vaati
after NG+ we find that the 4 old ones actually owns the soul of Gwyn, Izalith, Nito and Seath, everyone knows that
but the shards of the Lord Vessel actually remind me, in the end of DkS1, the Lord Vessel actually contains part of Gwyn's soul, and also the souls of Izalith, Nito and Seath...
also, when you talk to Chancellor Wellager, he tells you that King Vendrick defeated the 4 ancient ones before the kingdom rises, does this means that he is a chosen undead in DkS1 ? or does this mean that the 4 souls have been reborned more than 1 time
I know this is 7 years later but SotFS confirmed that many kingdoms have risen and fallen since the time of Gwyn, and because his timeline was the first, their souls are doomed to repeat it forever.
@@kevinm.4846 thanks for the update!
Very cool on the book easter egg and Lenigrast. I didn't notice that similarity at all, but once you put them next to one another...
I'm sure I'll make a lot of people mad saying I don't think Demon's and Dark Souls stories mix at all, but I love those easter eggs - and when the devs drop in things like that! Thanks for sharing! :)
Also when the emerald herald is sitting on the rock swinging her legs its meant to be her "rare" pose and is a reference to a child character from Demon Souls.
Child character? MIB is a grown woman/demon lol
The "Lordvessel" song for DS1 was super awesome. Hopefully you'll produce another badass DS2 song.
"10 things you didn't know"
"I'm sure we all have fond memories of being chased around Majula by these little guys"
At this point you have 9 examples.
after days of farming Sunlight medal and Bellkeeper kills
I finally got my Platinum Trophy ! ! !
Praise the Heide Kingdom ! ! !
Dark Souls is only "officially" a different universe from Demons' Souls because of copyright issues: From doesn't have the rights to Demons' Souls, Sony does. It's pretty obvious that it's the same world when you look at the lore, like the broken Archstone leading to the land of the giants and Lordran being a land ruled by giants. And there's Patches, of course.
you argument convinced me with the giant archstone but don't use patches he is also in armored core games
bigsamson100 Armored Core is a distant future of DaS/DeS confirmed
Ah, I didn't really play the Armored Core games, didn't realize he was in there.
John McPineapple holy shit did not know that
This has been proven a wrong and outdated theory. People have finally gotten into Demon's Souls cut content. The Land of the Giants was in the Demon's Souls game files. fextralife.com/forums/t25952/dark-souls-is-not-the-broken-archstone-of-demons-souls/
I knew about most of that... didn't know about the book or the possible reference to the map... and, I'm going to say it now, my heart hurt when I finished Lucatiel's story. Holy crap. Can't wait to hear you do her whole story, if you do her whole story.
yeah it is a very sad story. Like many other souls characters there are not that many that have a happy ending. The only ones I can think of now is solaire and other characters. but hell the name of the game has dark in it so i have to take away my tears and man up.
Uhm... Something I think you might have missed Vaati is that book is in a far easier to spot place in that room. Namely beside the large pot and barrel against the wall facing the door. You can even see it at 1.08 in the video.
The Lordvessel being there is more important than you think. When Nashandra came to Drangleic, she told Vendrick of a "prize" across the seas where the giants lived. After Vendrick's conquest, he used the Lordvessel to help create his kingdom. Nashandra obviously wanted it for the lord souls. She's Manus (the furtive pygmy) in human form. But, by that time, the giants had crossed the seas and waged war on Drangleic, trying to reclaim their stolen relic. Why do you think people of Lordran were giant? Sensing something amiss, Vendrick fled and hid the Lordvessel away to an inconspicuous place, the basement of the mansion in Majula. There, it was destroyed and the lord souls were released into 4 other beings: the Old Iron King (Gwyn), the Lost Sinner (Bed of Chaos bug), the Rotten (Nito), and the Duke's Dear Freja (Seath). History repeated itself once more. Why do you think you can transport from bonfire to bonfire right from the start? This also clears up the Ornstein and Gwynevere theories, showing that they abandoned Lordran and fled to Drangleic across the sea, since Ornstein was devoted to keep the princess safe. And of course Boletaria is in the same universe. Why else is Patches in Dark Souls?
Patches appears in Bloodborne. He's just an old favorite of Fromsoftware.
I don't know much about the soul's universe(s), but in Demon souls, the clerics always referred to God in the singular, and in the Dark Souls games, they always referred to gods in the plural. I always assumed that they were different universes with one being created by a monotheistic God, (possibly the Judaeo-Christian God) and one where people worship a pantheon of gods and goddesses. But then, why is patches still in both worlds?
I think child Herald is the one we meet in the location with bunch of dragons. She sounds very different from the one in Majula, in front of Drangleic Castle and before the Throne
I'm a PC only player and these last few days have been torture.
i know right bro?
this such a huge fan, and i dont want to buy it for the console... i had to wait this long, thankfully they moved the date to the 24th :D it used to be the 25th.
(and before that it was in may!!!! x.x)
I cant wait, sadly there will be alot of players that know everything already. :|
WHY ARE YOU SO BAD VAATI
TWO HAND YOUR WEAPONS WHEN YOU RIPOSTE OR BACKSTAB
IT'S MAKING ME WANT TO CRY
gotta pad out dat video m8
PREPARE TO
Why does it matter? He was fighting an npc no need to go all out...
pvpskillz wanna-be?
+Worthless1010 Correct me if I am wrong but I'm pretty sure 2 handing a backstab or riposte doesn't change anything at all
That room with the Lord Vessel shards looks as if it's covered in ash.
Completely unrelated to majula but i found something worth mentioning: The description of the Blossom Kite Shield
"A rare shield depicting a blossoming flower,
that soothes the weary heart of its bearer.
What makes flowers beautiful, and why
are we comforted when we gaze upon them?
Sadly, the flower depicted on this shield
went extinct long ago."
Obviously, The flower shown on this shield is a Rose. May i draw your attention to the line "went extinct long ago"?
This, my dear Dark Souls community, means Dark Souls (2 atleast) most likely plays in the future, which COULD mean, that Demon Souls and Dark Souls are in the same Universe, but Demon Souls taking place in the past and Dark Souls in the future. They don't have any connections with each other but take place in the same canon universe.
Im french and you pronounced it right!
yay!
+VaatiVidya the pendant in ds 1 can be traded for an item.i dont remember which one
Here's my interpretation of what I've been able to piece together about the lore by myself:
Drangleic is built upon the ruins of countless kingdoms that rose and fell (perhaps Vinheim?) over the millennia, back to the time of the First Flame, when a noble saint cast himself into the bonfire so that the Flame might live on.
Then, either King Vendrick or Nashandra stole something of great worth from the Giants, a race of ancient beings across the sea. Incensed, the Giants invaded Drangleic, bringing the kingdom to its knees before they were finally defeated.
Devastated by the war with the giants, Vendrick and his kingdom were little more than a shell of their former selves.They began a long process of decay, and the Undead curse reemerged among humans once more.
Desperate to save Drangleic, Vendrick attempted to understand the nature of souls so that he might stop the curse, and he conducted experiments with his brother, Aldia, but was unsuccessful, and became Hollow himself.
Only Nashandra remained, and it was she that began the curse, by robbing humanity of the Dark Soul. The Venito keeper of the crypt stated that humans were once one with the Dark, but had lost their relationship with it, further adding evidence to this theory. Deprived of their very humanity, Vendrick and Nashandra's subjects became hollow, wandering aimlessly about the land until they forget everything. Yet one Undead is destined to replace Vendrick and slay Nashandra, revitalizing the Kingdom once more and further extending the age of Fire.
A few things don't add up but ok.
Spoiler warning if you haven't played!
First of all Nashandra is the reincarnation of Manus (says it in her soul or weapons made from her soul). Also I wouldn't say she was undead, she seemed more corrupt than undead (evidence by her soul being dark purple, along with the watcher and the defender).
All the experiments were done by Aldia being manipulated by the soul of Seath. Hinted by Man scorpion Tark(us).
Drangleic is built over other kingdoms, one being Lordran (hinted with evidence).
Vendrick stole from the giants.
Nice job though, pretty in-depth :)
I said Vendrick became Hollow, not Nashandra.
I always wonder where you get the time to play all of this, think about it and create videos. Good job.
People might have mentioned this before, but here's a fun thing - If you die in a few places in the forest of fallen giants, you can actually see your bloodstain from the Majula bonfire - if you die in the place the crow drops Pursuer the first time, your bloodstain appears about halfway down the right side of the cliff face, and if you die on the battlements against Pursuer in his boss room, it floats WAY off to the left of the castle.
If you kill the pigs in majula over and over they evolve. They start as 3 little piggies you kill for 30 souls each. Then 2 adolescent boars you can kill repeatedly for 140 souls each. Then 1 daddy boar that you can kill once for 800 souls. Then the piggies stop spawning in Majula.
Here's a thought does the writing on the back of the large obelisk where you can join the Way of Blue covenant ever get revealed
I like to believe that the two souls universes (Demon and Dark) are actually the same (even if the devs said otherwise), but that nobody significant from both stories ever heard of the lands of the other universe.
What I am trying to say is this: Demon souls and Dark Souls are the same universe, but none of the important characters have visited\heard of the lands of the other souls game.
Maybe one important character has: Patches the Hyena (aka Trusty Patches). He is in Demon Souls and Dark Souls.
theres actually alot of theories right now that das2 is a prequel to des which i kinda believe some of them
I liked that concept as well. I was hoping that in this game there was going to be some ties to Demon's Souls but everything seems to point towards the previous Souls game, Dark Souls. That and strange references to FromSoftwares' earlier titles, aside from the Souls series. Love reading item descriptions, because they propagate knowledge that is either purposefully misconstrued or has sometime of meta-philosophical importance within your endeavors that is happening or has happened behind the scenes.
... That tangent was crazy, and I'm sorry... But yea, Dark Souls II doesn't seem to have any correlation with Demon's Souls, sadly.
xxEvilChris
well theres alot of theories about the emerald herald being the maiden in black and the map for example and the arch stone and how there are reoccurring weapons and things i think they just said that for sony to not be like well demon souls is ours you cant make games related but i think there hinting at everythings related just my opinion tho
xxEvilChris Well it's not much, but I've actually found some small things.
At the beginning of the game you go into a portal. In a land where time is distorted and alot of other instances of physics defying that would make Sir Issac Newton roll in his grave, I think its very possible that it leads to another universe. Demon's Soul's Universe. Also you know what was non-existant in DeS? Giants. What died out in DkS2? Giants.
~SPOILERS?~
Does it give credit to the hag in the opening sequence... if not the hag is probably the Emerald Harold, and the girl we speak to in Drangleic is the child. Considering the Lore makes it pretty obvious they are one in the same. At least that was my take.
I'm a french canadian and your pronunciation of the Le désir de vivre is excellent !! Good job dude !! ;) You do an excellent description and video.
Ok. Crazy conspiracy theory time:
What if the land of giants that Vendrick invaded was in fact the land of giants sealed-off by the broken archstone in Demon's Souls? Think about it.
It would fit the map "reference" Vaati made in this video...
I've thought the same thing
actually... to get your thoughts on this. Don't the statues in the gutter kind of look a bit like maiden astrea?
Mmmm, I think that's a too far of a shot, but who knows? Personally I found this to be the only link to Demon's Souls. That and the recurring theme that is the Xanthous Crown :p
you might be right... but it wouldn't be the first time the devs put a bit of fan service into the series.
That's exactly what I thought too, maybe Demon souls take place after Dark souls 2. I know the dev's said they aren't related but that was before dark souls 2 was released, and to change they're statement would be spoilers.
Did you know that when you equip the Ring of Whispers and then enter the mansion, a demonic voice bellows from an unknown location. That freaked me out the first time it happened
Really I'm going to go try that
Holy shit, Daniel Avidan (Danny Sexbang) has the perfect voice for like, a slow melodic souls song, I can hear it already in my head :D
Clearly, did you see when him and arin sung the endless ocean songs......"give him a haaaand job" -Danny
Johnny Ocegueda
"I wanna ruuuub that fish." - Arin
Danny's voice is shit.
***** oh link, you so cray
*****
Your voice is shit.
If you light all Flames blue you will actually unlock a secret boss fight Where you fight The Old dragon slayer and when you revisit the area there will be a fog door go through it and you will fight the boss the incendent iron king
And win the cat-helmet
Cat helmet tell me more tell me how I can get it...
You are right about the book, because if you go inside the memory of vammar(one of the giants) and you go on the first broken down tower you see, you will see a bookcase, with the excact book you mentioned in it.
Man. Co ing back to these old videos is something. Can't wait for your elden ring dlc content.
awesome video.
Youre famous now!
Holy shit, cant believe you were into this before brawlhalla and all.
Bonjour, "Le désir de vivre" is a book from Paul Acker, a French writer from Alsace. It tells the story of a countryside girl who comes to Paris to live. It depicts her struggle through a life of poberty yet sometimes enlightened by love. It is not so well known in France and I am very surprised to find it in such a game?
Good job on the pronunciation of the book at 1:00, I've seen way worse butchering.
Hell, I couldn't even find the emerald herald. Although I knew the things about the armor salesman. Yeah... took me a long time to find that maiden... Thanks for the video, great job as always! :D
Man is funny hear him talk about "prepare to cry" when a heard much of them, hearing he's gonna make the first ones is like come to an old house
9/10, last one was 10/10. Cmon Vaati, your DS1 versions of these, I only got like 3/10 lol
speak for yourself man, I didn't realize the map in the basement or the lordvessel. I thought the map was just an oddly coloured rock, and I never really looked at the lord vessel in DS1 (enough to memorize its pattern i mean). And I never actually talked to the merchant with 0 souls. Oh, but one thing Vaati forgot to mention/show was that Gilligan gives you the Melu Scimitar if you buy the expensive ladder.
Me : *new to dark souls;wandering in majula* *found three pigs*
"Oh, pigs."
Pigs : *start chasing as if Im DOING SOMETHING WRONG*
Me : *died*
Me also : WWHY
Hey mate, if you're still looking for musicians to work with you, we might be interested. I (the singer/founder of this band), LOVES the Souls games. I've played all three, and am currently about to start my first NG+ run in DS II. Sadly I never beat DS1, because my 360 RROD'd right when I reached The Duke's Archives. :/
Man, that sucks. Just want to let you know, it doesnt take much of a PC to run dksls 1 or 2...
Andrew Voutsinas Thanks, that's good to know. I wouldn't mind giving it a go on the PC version actually. Looks like it's got all kinds of nice enhancement mods too now.
In fact, if your in the US. $400 can max out dksls 2.

The controls still feel a bit icky on the PC, but just plugging in your Xbox controller fixes that without problems.
Also, mods. Mods can do anything. Fix controls, improve visuals, etc.
"You can keep your own head cannon"

I like how he talks about the book halfway sticking out and tries to get a good view on it, but passes a completely visible one just 2 seconds later at 1:08
#4. You had to get the vessel (DS1) to teleport. In DS2 you can teleport from the beginning on. Maybe the power has released to the world?
It seems pretty clear that Dranglaeic is built over the ruins of Lordran (and several other kingdoms, to boot). Majula serves the same purpose as Firelink Shrine and, amusingly, appears to be located in the same place physically, too. Looks like the Lordvessel got buried with the Kiln and sat there until someone dug that basement.
Dude your french accent is better than my english accent!
It's 2021. I've completed the whole game years ago and just learned about those falling damage boots. Great job V!
You sneaky bastard... I knew all of the stuff that had to do with playing majula, but the lordvessel and flames got me. I went back to dark souls one after new game +3
The black blacksmith.
Awesome, your French pronunciation is good. The story talk about people who want to survive, so your guess is correct :)
Vraiiii
I don't know if you will see this, but I am a musician that is trying to get heard more. While I'm still learning and don't have much experience with song writing, I think I could help with the souls songs. Also I play guitar if you ever see this.
that book is also found in one of the giants memories. the one where you get the rose shield.
Damn, i had no idea you were so busy with DS content, been watching your stuff for a while and It's fantastic!
I almost cried when you killed the armour guy... RIP
When you killed the Emerald Herald I almost cried. ;-;
I use my head-cannon to destroy my enemies.
I'd like to take a minute and thank you for this EXACTLY 10 minute long video. The symmetry gods are pleased...
God damn it Vaati, every time I watch these 'Things you missed' videos I have to leave a like.

Vaati just going on a Majula massacre at the end!
I was very disappointed that there's no such thing as a full Flying Feline set, only boots.
No furry in drangleic
I have an idea about the Lord Vessel being shattered in the basement of the Majula mansion. Going off the theory that Vendrick stole the Lord Vessel from the Giants, maybe the reason it's shattered in the basements of Majula is that's where he broke it and handed out the Lord Souls to his trusted allies? It'd explain why there's a completely different structure underneath the mansion, and kinda explains why the map is there.
I'm a french fan of your videos and when I saw the book " Le désir de vivre " it was just Awesome! Love What you're doing 😁
Vaati - I don't know exactly what this music you're looking for is supposed to be used for, or what kind of music even, but I've started playing around with doing a project of my own based around the Dark souls universe. So far I have one track that's still a work in progress. You can find it here (soundcloud.com/de_qi/the-curse-of-lucatiel) if it's of any interest. It's basically electronic music with elements of ambient, dubstep, hip hop etc.
Wait... The Emerald Herald is a firekeeper, and one of the 4 firekeeper sisters is missing... Could it be that the old woman in the intro of the game is her, and she appears in the game younger? (also The Emerald Herald says one line said by her at the beggining, too. "Without really knowing why", I think it is). Interesting...
Also at dragon aerie the emerald herald also said that she it was her will who brought u to drangleic. Yet the old woman in the intro was who pushed u to go to the portal. Maybe they rly are the same person?
What happened to Demon's Souls pre pare to cry? are you still going to make them?
I'll do Astrea, but Dark Souls 2 is going to have to ttake priority, generally. I do want to revisit it though.
VaatiVidya ttake...
Nasha3456 Typos happen...
+VaatiVidya ttttt take.... Read that in the melody of the Mario theme. Nice vid
You forget to mention that on each new game plus u ascend the merchant will sell a piece of the moonlight butterfly armor set. In ng++ the chest in the back of the shop becomes a moonlight butterfly shield. The armor set gives off an aura that poisons nearby enemies.
dude i love what patreon has done for everyone on this channel. keep up the good work.
PC VERSIONS ALMOST HERE FCKYAHHH
There two areas unused in the game, Alva's Resting Place and Last Rest of Giants. DLC maybe?
Hey ! I'm the one of the 3 frenchs here ! Aaaaaand I've never read this book :D
im mexican and the only thing i know it is hard to find
Ok I'm french and I am a Dark Souls fan. What I can tell you is that it is a famous book written during/after the first world war, and its been known in those series of "war oriented" books describing the life of men at war and the lives of those (women, child) stayed at home. I could read it and tell you if there are links with the lore
Elie Sanh Ducos I just bought the book (same edition as the one in Majula) will read it as soon as it gets to me
Elie Sanh Ducos Wow man, you have my respect.
9euros on amazon.fr :)
Your voice is so calm and unrushed ! I love it
btw for the people who dont know yet: the 2 voice actors for the emerald herald are #1 the old lady who sends you to drangelic(old) and than the normal herald(child).
I feel as if from soft just added in a bunch of "lore" or background information in the description of some items for the sake of it cause they now know that we the fans like desecting it but the problem is there is a bit to much like they just mentiond a bunch of names ... Like "This ring belonged to blah blah of old kingdom of bloo blee but he and the kingdom died lul" shit like that, and those named invaders that aren't mentiond any where else. The thing with dks1 is that there was a structur in the lore and they never expected for us to put the pieces together, now they are just throwing all these random names and places at us... imo of course...
To be fair that all traces back to the fact Miyazaki barely understood english as a kid. He loved western fantasy, especially reading it. However since his grasp on English was so poor, he only got bits and pieces of the story. Over time that's how he learned to tell stories, by only giving bits and pieces and hinting at their connection in the background.
If the lore feels haphazard that's because it was a melting pot of ideas from different staff members. Or so I've heard.
What have you done to Shanny...
Ooooh, my heart ached with each hit on the Emerald Herald
Q.Q waifuuu~
You make the best dark souls videos on youtube or any other website, bar none.
The broken Lordvessel is what lets you teleport throughout the world
Please vaati do Lucatiel of mirrah first, here story really hit me
same here
How are people at NG+10 already?! I've been playing since day 2 and only just now got to NG+1! Are they even enjoying it or are they just rushing through??
One word. TIME TRAVEL!
There are speed runs of people beating the entire game in under and hour and a half. It's very possible that there are people at ng+10 or beyond.
jwhoff619 thats two words
You must be really really really awful at this game. No offense dude, but damn.
I was in NG+3 endgame (as in, just needed to bonfire it up to NG+4) by midway through the second week.
Careful about the Cheat Engine, it's VAC now, not GFWL.
May GFWL burn in hell.
Ruined so many games.
nukeclears Soon, it will!
Okay. #5 was a complete mystery. Still at NG+6, so I didn't know that yet. Cool! Take my thumbs!
I can't wait to see a mention of Velstadt in one of your videos. He's probably my favorite boss in the game, and while I think I almost have him completely figured out, it'll be interesting to hear your take on his connections to Vendrick, Raime, The Heirs of the Sun, etc.
