Congratulations, Pat, you are the proud winner of the Fromsoft Fandom Shitpost Free-For-All.

Those who find this strange belt to their liking will find it increases their defense.* *increases armor against thunder elemental attacks by 0.015 percent, not that the game ever tells you this
Patrick! You did it. You've broken Soulsbourne games down to their essential weird little guys. Personally looking forward to Girl Boss, Wandering Pot, and Son of Wandering Pot. 💕
The biggest flex is making a followup video just about Margit and then not bragging about how you got the soul read on him a year ago. You called him out on his entire deal.
My absolute favorite minigame is guessing whose sonorous voice I am about to hear based on video title alone when I get a notification. Thank you, Polygon, I love you (platonically and respectfully and in a healthy way).
before watching the video: oh! an informative video about elden ring, cool! watching the video: oh after watching the video: this was informative and useful, actually
can't wait to get some of that Flat Stanley honey. Might add it to the delicious soup within the wandering pot. Will share it with my true wife Girl Boss
I hope they add my favorite fromsoft character type: the Patches character. This character tricks you into a trap to kill and rob you but then becomes a merchant and also it’s just the one guy who does this every time.
For the umpteenth time now I think they should pull a sneaky on you and have the obvious patches character be actually good, and the game fakes you out so often due to our conditioning from previous games, and some unsuspecting merchant is actually the douchey hole kicker. A gaslight in the making
"He looks really, really scary, but my guess is that he's just the guy you need to fight before you get into the _real_ game." Wow. Really called Godrick.
Patrick I am begging you to find a banger symphony that isn't New World Symphony I played it in orchestra six years ago my stupid brain is hired wired to listening to this absolute banger of a symphony I didn't hear any words you said after minute 2:45 this happens in so many of your videos specifically and I appreciate it I do but subtitles don't work when all of my brain power is devoted to singing along to one of the most fun symphonies I've ever heard
You missed one weird little guy: Dobby’s always there, he's always JUST off screen. He doesn't want to make a lot of noise because you yelled at him about paying rent earlier and he still feels weird about it.
the meta level soulsborne humor of this video culminates in, "We're givin' you a partner and yeah, it's a horse!" I will think about this every time I see Magic Horse, now.
Ok but, the second polygon video to use New World Symphony as perfect epic cheese feels? Beauty (I know there was another one, this is a thing that I know in my head)
Ooh I love a good prediction video. Can't wait to find out what turned out to be accurate through your future videos, since I don't play games like this but am happy that other people enjoy them.
I love how everyone expactations when we learn that will be a horse mount in the game was like "Humm.... Lets see how realistic Fromsoft can do the horses" But then the horse his fading and appearing out of existance, superjumping and double jumping and everyone is like WHAT??? This so much a Fromsoft thing
Can't wait to come back here when it's out and see all the comments telling you how right/wrong you guys were
me neither
@@polygon if the big giant little guy isn't named Yhorm! I'm selling my copy.
Back
@@hollyzandstra4413 I respect your dedication
And they were so right! Highest marks for Tarnished Gatekeeper, Sister Mommydaughterwife, and Magic Horse.

... If Patches isn't in this game at some point, I'm gonna platinum it then frisbee it out my window
@@picklejho69 that las sentence really encapsulates all my feelings towards Fromsoft games

petition for pat to be a weirdo giggly boy in elden ring he did SO GOOD
For a minute, I sincerely thought it was just the real audio from a Souls clip.
Yeah for a sec I was like "Who's that? I know that voice I swear..."
I love creepy giggling Fromsoft NPCs and Pat would fit right in
Patrick! You did it. You've broken Soulsbourne games down to their essential weird little guys.
Personally looking forward to Girl Boss, Wandering Pot, and Son of Wandering Pot. 💕
Whoever keeps putting the New World Symphony into these Polygon videos: We see you, we appreciate you.
Wait did they put it in others? Haven't noticed it before now lol.
Thank you! I knew I wasn't hallucinating it. Or were we both hallucinating it? What dark scheme are they enacting....
classical music appreciation gang represent
I'm glad I'm not the only one noticing
wait which other videos has it appeared in and how have I missed this?
The biggest flex is making a followup video just about Margit and then not bragging about how you got the soul read on him a year ago. You called him out on his entire deal.
was looking for this comment. Most of these were accurate enough having a giggles - but he absolutely xrayed Margit.
Coming back here to fact check all these weird little guys now that Elden Ring is out. I can say now this video is 100% accurate.
Not even a joke, it was really accurate! This was hilarious never seeing it until after release
"This is Lady Pious, which is ironic because she hates God" I'm convinced pat can see the future
@@someone7554 Considering "Tanith" is the name of an *ancient* Phoenician goddess of love, it's especially choice.
Aside from 3:44 Handor hahahaha, I wish that was a throwaway enemy… I wish…🥲
"Sister mommy daughter wife"
Thats a horrifying new level of incest...
I believe the sister is meant as in "religious sister", sort of a nun. Makes it a little less bad... I think.
roll tide
Average crusader Kings player
Or, as we sometimes call it, Alabama
@@M-Soares then what about "mommy-daughter-wife"?
Pat really just out here spoiling all of Elden Ring huh
Did he even ask permission to make this? Why did they let him?
Goth girl within the first few minutes, Soulslike fans: *heavy breathing*
This is accurate
drooling Soulslike fan: yes me wanty gothy mommywaifu big sisterdaughter milkies
@@Sablus medium milkies are good too 🥵i wont judge
@@keganallen4839 any milkies are milkies.
try finger, but hole ahead
any time handor is not on screen, every npc will ask "where is handor?"
who is handor?
Why is handor?
whomst is handor.
@@dinksunker whomstn't Handor?
Handor is short for Hanz gruner
"This is Berserk from Berserk." Because From Soft will NEVER stop stanning for Berserk...NEVER.
Just let Miyazaki make a Berserk game then!
And we're glad for it.
I'm personally looking forward to meeting tree from berserk.
@@xaviergoncalves176 Yes please.
Of the berserk characters, they always were one of my favourites.
My absolute favorite minigame is guessing whose sonorous voice I am about to hear based on video title alone when I get a notification.
Thank you, Polygon, I love you (platonically and respectfully and in a healthy way).
And this one, couldn't have NOT been Pat.
And when you guess right, then it's sonorous noice!
I don’t know if I’m more amazed by the Malenia prediction, the Burger Kings prediction, or the Lady Pious prediction. Unreal foresight, Pat.
Melina as “One of the few sources of warmth in this brutal world” ended up being a lot more literal than I expected
3:37 Pat has absolutely mastered the Dark Souls opiate giggle & needs to be hired as a VA immediately
"Sister Mommydaughterwife"
Hey, this is Elden Ring, not Crusader Kings.
I love how the names range from “The Wyvern of the Sunken Lands” to “ manuscript terry :>”.
"Dancer of the Boreal Valley" vs "Big Hat Logan"
@@Vinno1234 Sirris of the Sunless Realms vs Emma
videos I would kiss on the mouth in a totally platonic way if I could
Videos I would kiss on the mouth in a totally gay way which I can and will
@@EmpressArachne took the words right outta my mouth. possibly with your own mouth.
3:16 is the most fromsoft thing I've ever heard
And you'll be like where the f did she go but somehow some dude will figure out exactly how it happens a day after release and post it on Reddit
3:32 is scarily accurate to most npc's in dark souls
So much of this was spot on except for the part where Handor is the fucking goomba of this video game, they put Handor EVERYWHERE.
Boy I fucking hate Handor
i would in fact prefer if handor were actually in fewer places, please
Yeah, because they watched this and changed handor's number of appearances out of spite.
Cult Maiden Stendarr and the Licorice Root shortage sounds too real to be pure conjecture.
Magic horse:
Player: I cherish you like family but fear you as my killer
basically the only mistake in this is that manuscript terry turned out to be northern
I refuse to believe that anyone at Polygon is capable of harbouring ill will towards a horse
Not since BDG left, really. I could see him harboring ill will toward a horse.
You've never seen their stream where Pat played Red Dead Redemption 2, then.
*horsemurder gill has entered the chat*
Pat's Pets.
Love how completely nailed Margit is in this video
The only thing I'm more excited for than Elden Ring is videos from Pat Gill about Elden Ring
Which one is Phillipe with the shoes that say "here comes a special boy?" for each step?
Achewood gang checkin in- password: entropy9
Actually Nice Pete would make for a pretty decent NPC
before watching the video: oh! an informative video about elden ring, cool!
watching the video: oh
after watching the video: this was informative and useful, actually
I've certainly learned a lot about pat
Handor Handor Handor
Man, it's really brave of them to bring back flat stanley
"This is Berserk from Berserk."
10/10, this video gets a thumbs up.
Now this is a patented Pat Title (TM)
Its Patented :)
Still can't believe you got Lady Pious 100% accurately
god I wish Handor was a unique enemy, if I never see a hand again it will be too soon
This has a "Reggie guessing Smash Bros character's names" energy oozing from every sentence.
I thought the exact same thing!
I'm here for the Achewood reference. I see you, Pat.
I spent the whole video waiting for a little otter monster named Philippe.
can't wait to get some of that Flat Stanley honey. Might add it to the delicious soup within the wandering pot. Will share it with my true wife Girl Boss
Once again a profoundly Pat video concept, you love to see it
I wasn't paying attention to the intro so it took me halfway into the video to realize this was made before the game out. WOW spot on.
another title i could tell was pat, love those little guys haha >:)
I love to know about the weird little guys and no one else is reporting on them!
I hope they add my favorite fromsoft character type: the Patches character.
This character tricks you into a trap to kill and rob you but then becomes a merchant and also it’s just the one guy who does this every time.
For the umpteenth time now I think they should pull a sneaky on you and have the obvious patches character be actually good, and the game fakes you out so often due to our conditioning from previous games, and some unsuspecting merchant is actually the douchey hole kicker. A gaslight in the making
It's awesome to see how many of these were spot on! Love you Pat!
"this is berserk from berserk" GOD I LOVE PAT
hi I'm george rr martin and I can confirm this is all correct
thank you, love your book
Yeah I *would* willingly drink whatever’s in that pot, you got a problem with that?
"He looks really, really scary, but my guess is that he's just the guy you need to fight before you get into the _real_ game." Wow. Really called Godrick.
you know it's pat gill when new world symphony starts playing over some fromsoft thing. i love this man's brand
TCR is far from Elden Ring's only little guy to low-profile my claymore hit box... but also now everytime it happens I laugh lol
Lady Pious at @3:29 is too accurate. Pat, are YOU the true All-Knowing!?
Yeah this seems pretty accurate!
Imma come back to this video when the game is released and check to make sure, but I trust in this
A+ to whoever put the Achewood reference in the thumbnail
Patrick I am begging you to find a banger symphony that isn't New World Symphony I played it in orchestra six years ago my stupid brain is hired wired to listening to this absolute banger of a symphony I didn't hear any words you said after minute 2:45 this happens in so many of your videos specifically and I appreciate it I do but subtitles don't work when all of my brain power is devoted to singing along to one of the most fun symphonies I've ever heard
Wow, you guys were really spot-on on “Tarnished Gatekeeper” (Margit the Fell Omen)…
Whoever let Pat loose in the video editing suite without supervision: thank you.
I desperately want one of these names to be correct by coincidence.
You missed one weird little guy: Dobby’s always there, he's always JUST off screen. He doesn't want to make a lot of noise because you yelled at him about paying rent earlier and he still feels weird about it.
the meta level soulsborne humor of this video culminates in, "We're givin' you a partner and yeah, it's a horse!"
I will think about this every time I see Magic Horse, now.
I can't wait for this comments section to be flooded with how completely correct this is in a few days
The excitement as Pat announces "Yhooorm!!" gets me every time XD
Hes so happy to see him!!
the happy "Yhorm!" was amazing and i loved it, im happy to meet yhorm number 2 also
Quick someone get Vaati over here! He needs to know this crucial lore!
I'm a simple woman. I see a gaggle of truly revolting little freaks, and I wait for Pat Gill to make a video about them.
Pot boy is NOT revolting thank you
So many shots and not one miss, how do you do it Mr. Gill
this is an Official Pat Masterpiece. A Patsterpiece™️
The Burger Kings, Cuphead, Kid Icarus and The Fashion Squad killed me, you've got to do more of these for other games.
imma be real i lost it at sister mommydaughterwife and did not get it back for the remainder of the video
I'd love pat to be a voice actor in a FromSoft game, Manuscript Terry was perfect
NOW DO THE SHADOWS OF THE ERDTREE TRAILER PATRICK. I WANT TO LEARN ABOUT THE LITTLE GUYS IN IT. DO IT PATRICK. PLEEEASEEE
It's amazing coming back to this after beating the game to see how close you were on a lot of these lol
This video gave me so much joy. Thank you Pat and Polygon. I am now the sequel game, Light Soul, where everything is happy and makes perfect sense.
Rom was the Magic Stag in Bloodborne although you could make an argument for all of Old Yharnam.
Ok but, the second polygon video to use New World Symphony as perfect epic cheese feels? Beauty (I know there was another one, this is a thing that I know in my head)
Always happy to see my man Philippe get a reference in a title.
If the inscrutable cube met the inscrutable orbs from Destiny, we would have the best geometrical crossover in all of gaming history.
*shapes*
This is Lady Pious, which is ironic because she hates God. This is her friend Loyal Blade Wilhelm, which is ironic because he betrays her.
Commenting for algorithm because I cried laughing at "This is Berserk from Berserk"
I had no idea what to expect from the title and thumbnail, but I can say I was not disappoint.
Ooh I love a good prediction video. Can't wait to find out what turned out to be accurate through your future videos, since I don't play games like this but am happy that other people enjoy them.
Im gonna need a side by side with this completely accurate description and with the game description when the game comes out
Good video, but even better Achewood reference in the thumbnail
Pat knows the molds better than the dudes filling them
The title and thumbnail immediately let you know this is a Pat video. Achewoodisms always appreciated.
i wish to one day experience the joy that patrick gill experienced when he proclaimeed unto his followers "Yhorm!"
here comes the boy.... hello boy...... welcome.......... there he is............. he is here.............................
I WISH Handor only appear once because they're everywhere and creeps me out everytime
This is an absolutely scathing indictment of the From Software formula. It is also 113% accurate. Chef's kiss Polygon. Chef's kiss.
This video properly breaks down the likely character tropes that will show up in Elden Ring. And yet, my takeaway is:
Buil
Ding
Some of these read like Brad Neely characters, especially the burger kings.
Wow Pat, you got it 100% right, good job
loved the use of Hall of the Mountain King and New World Symphony as background music. That just made this for me
"This is Berserk, from Berserk" hit's me right in the funnybone. And the feels.
I love how everyone expactations when we learn that will be a horse mount in the game was like "Humm.... Lets see how realistic Fromsoft can do the horses"
But then the horse his fading and appearing out of existance, superjumping and double jumping and everyone is like WHAT???
This so much a Fromsoft thing
Only just now found this video and...a lot is really accurate...
Is that an achewood reference in the thumbnail?
"Basement rumpus room" got me
Nice Achewood reference, Pat ĺi presume)!
A+ work, i feel EXTREMELY educated.
just like manuscript terry!
MMMMMM, tomes
I would love to live in a world where a game would be put on hold for updates to make the version Patrick comes up with.
"Just some guys." :D
