When you get to Artorias, I recommend the remastered prepare to cry. It had me actually crying.
Thanks for the recommendation 🙂
If you listen the Pinwheel ost theme, you can hear whispers from the family members talking to each other. I really love these kind of details they give so much character to the world you're in.
😯
What makes Pinwheel's fate even worse is knowing that he really did succeed. After you defeat him, you unlock the Rite of Kindling, which allows you to increase the capacity of Estus flask. Estus flasks are your main healing items in Dark Souls, which are bottles of divine fire (Estus) that give the Undead (90% of characters in the game) life. Vaati was alluding to it since players would know what it means, but yeah...the only reason Pinwheel could not succeed was that he was in the player's way, and you - as the Chosen Undead, savior of the world - "needed" his abilities to restore life "more" than him.
😢 poor guy
@@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames actually its poor them pinwheel is literatelly 3 people on top of each other......... i dont know why
@@ivanteoh930 The first attempt to revive his family fused them, if I remember correctly.
@@ivanteoh930 Pinwheel is a mother, father, and child fused together. It’s not just three ransoms
Artorias is must. His story is brilliant.
Siegmeyer's story in dark souls is by far the saddest imo. It's a tale of someone seeking adventure, however his need for assistance slowly strips away his ambition. A tale of how helping someone confront adversity is slowly dooming them to a sad fate. I feel it perfectly captures the mood of dark souls, alongside Solaire's story. It's the characters like them that made me appreciate the world that dark souls created, a world where nothing matters anymore and the only thing you can do is focus on the things that keep you sane.
Father Gascoigne from Bloodborne and Artorias from DS1 are also amazing. The first one i found personally to be the saddest.
Man, without saying much, that companion's tragedy though... gets me every time
Black Iron Tarkus to DS1 players is THE summon. He's easily the best summonable ally NPC in the game. There's a good chance he could've linked the fire or turned away if he had survived.
😎🤟
A vaati reaction? Sweet. His more modern stuff for Dark Souls 1 is awesome, particularly the stuff about Gwyn and Artorias.
😎👍😀
@@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames Agreed, Vaati is a well-known name concerning the Soulborne games. Highly recommend his Bloodborne lore videos & his art competitions. He hosted a series of fan-art competitions with prizes for the Soulsborne games & the creativity that came through was astounding.
Black Iron Tarkus is soo cool. That first clip doesn't show it well. But when you summon him to fight that Iron Golem. There is a chance he can just solo the fight. Forcing the giant mechanical knight off the cliff's edge. Truely heroic, only to die due to the weight of his armor, is lack of dexterity to cross the rafters without falling.
Oh damn 😯
@@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames When the game first came out, there was a meme: Black Iron Tarkus is just better at this game than you
Black Iron Tarkus is one of the best summonable NPC's From Software has ever given us in any Soulsborne game. What you saw was just one instance of that character solo'ing the boss you can summon him for! All of us that played the first Dark Souls remember how strong he was, and will always respect him as an absolute chad of jolly cooperation. Alongside one other...
His build is insane. I paid homage in DS3, that armor and greatshield made every fire enemy a joke.
I hope this becomes a series, as Souls Lore is my favorite story in gaming.
If you're curious about what the undead curse even is or any story details for context and to better understand the world, feel free to ask. I love talking about souls lore.
Some context for Tarkus's beginning skit is that Tarkus is an extremely OP summon who can literally solo the boss. And further context, the boss gets a health boost if you summon players or NPCs. So Tarkus helped a lot of people get past Sens Fortress, hence why Tarkus is so venerated. It would genuinely be a harder fight if you had to fight Tarkus and summon the Giant Golem for help.
We do plan to continue with this series. Thanks for giving us more info on Tarkus and why he is so beloved in the community 🙂
Love u guys one of my favorite react channels, you guys manage to hit everything i want a reaction plus your chemistry not only makes it even better but its beautiful to see two people who love eachother do something like this and make merch together if you two werent the cutest thing before you are now thanks for the videos
you may know this, but hollowing involves the process of losing what makes you human, you're memories being one of em. so him trying too keep it together, is him trying to retain his humanity.
If you guys are interested in more Vaati then I recommend his video on the “Lord of Frenzied Flame”, it’s probably his best video.
They're all worth a watch but the ones that really got to me: Anri and Horace, Patches, Greirat, and especially the Remasters of Artorias and the Children of Chaos (This will make you cry)
Dang, this is a good month. We got 3 Vaati's videos. Now i'm getting more intrigued to join the patreon
Vaati’s production style (and mic quality) has come so far!
i always wanted you two to react to the prepare to cry series, thanks for the video
The dark in "dark souls" is there for a reason!
But that aside, looking back at Vaati's older videos and comparing them to his new releases, in terms of quality, the difference is night and day!
The videos keep on getting better and better, so I look forward to seeing more of you guys' reactions!
Look forward to then improving more. We enjoyed these so even more quality will be fantastic 🤩
So the reason it's called "Prepare to Cry" isn't because it's emotional, but because it started with "Prepare to Die" edition of Dark Souls.
Yeahhh!! Please keep this up, you'll love dark souls lore!!
The best thing about first-time reaction videos, especially when those reacting to the video are reacting to something you have watched before, and it is a subject you are a fan of, is that warm feeling of sharing something you enjoy with someone new. It's like sharing your old toys with a new kid. Maybe it is the desire to share the love or misery of what we cherish.
On a side note watching VaatiVidya earlier videos truly show how far he has come. The quality of the storytelling has really improved, making him one of the best Souls loremaster.
Well, if you're going to react to these, I recommend the Prepare to Cry for "Lucatiel", a character from Dark Souls 2. It's very tragic, as a lot of Dark Souls 2 has to do with losing yourself to the undead curse, and becoming a husk of a person. A real life parallel of the Undead Curse would be like having an extremely rapid case of dementia, and her story arc plays on the fear of losing yourself, and not knowing how to stop it.
Thanks for recommendation 😀
Prepare to Cry Remastered:
ruclips.net/p/PLWLedd0Zw3c5TsicQnt7lFjzuUBPp13Qv
He has remastered a few these videos and added insight from the future titles that weren't out at the time, I think you should watch these first as it covers groundwork into the world and more major characters like Gwyn, Artorias and the Children of Chaos and concepts like what the Dark Souls even are, what is the curse of Undead, how do gods and mortals work etc, whereas Pinwheel and Black Tarkus etc are very minor characters in Lordran. The videos also have some way better production value as it isn't a decade old
Thanks for helping us with the remastered playlist 😀
i gotta say, these prepare to cry videos are the best
You should see the artorias one, though the remastered version is much better and flows a lot more smoothly as this comes after vaati has built his channel. That said some of the prepare to cry videos won't make sense unless you've seen certain ones first, like when he references gwyn and the undead curse. But for most of the character videos, most don't rely on having much background.
We try our best to do then in order but will also check our remastered ones when advised 😅
You probably should have watched the Prepare to Cry Trailer first. It serves as a good introduction to this series of lore videos.
On another note, one thing that Vaati neglected to mention is that the Pinwheel's lair isn't just inside a crypt. He has set up shop inside a gigantic SARCOPHAGUS!
Its called prepare to cry because the games edition was ”prepare to die”
Haha, it's crazy to listen to Vaati's voice from way back. He has gotten so far :P
YES,, cant wait for more!!
I kinda hope that this is a tease for upcoming Prepare to cry: Knight Artorias. That's the best of the Prepare To Cry series. And it has a dog in it.
Edit: I'm stupid. Should have read the description before commenting. My bad. Well, We Prepare To Cry then!!!
Definitely the saddest one, but the best is probably the Lord of Frenzied Flame one.
@@aandaroo Wait, i mean, the Dark Souls of Prepare To Cry. Sorry for not specifying it
Something extra sad when your a badass knight and fall damage is what takes you out.
All of the Prepare To Cry videos are awesome, Fromsoft's lore is really melancholic but beautiful!
xD I see the depth of DS lore videos has been found by you guys
Can't wait for frenzied flame one 🔥
There is always a reason that forbidden lore is forbidden. And Pinwheel paid the price for it.
Black Iron Tarkus was everyone's savior against the Iron Golem, he was the only thing that could deal enough damage to hurt it a lot, hope you guys react to more of these
Prepare to cry Hawkwood is my favorite one, would really recommend it. Artorias is also a fan favorite and the most expansive one touching on a lot of other stories at the same time.
Pinwheel's success was a serious "Monkey's Paw" situation. He got what he wanted but at a very severe, unexpected price.
Regarding the knight that’s trying to retain their sanity, in the world of Dark Souls, every time a being dies in the game, they lose a part of themselves until they eventually become a Hollow and go insane. To help avoid this, many characters in the series will focus on a goal or ideal to help anchor their sanity. The knight in the video has died numerous times up to this point and as a result has started to go insane as he is having trouble reciting numbers. He’s become so afraid of dying again that’s he refuses to continue moving past this point and instead chooses to wait and watch others go forward instead. This is used to contrast Iron Tarkus who valiantly pushes forwards in spite of all this.
You guys should react to mk11 kombos it would be a like a dream for me to see
Someone let me know when they get to patches that is going to be a trip
Ooof I’m ready for Artorias
"Necromancy's never a good idea." I can think of numerous reasons to choose necromancy if you're going to be something like a surgeon, doctor or whatever. Since necromancers deal with body parts, anatomy, etc, imagine how great it would be to have a sane, ethical necromancer working in a hospital or on the field like an army medic. I want to see necromancers like that instead of just the typical evil guys and girls or the screwups who didn't read the instruction manual before practicing the stuff. Or just to have someone who can revive fallen soldiers, without making them into any equivalent of the Scourge from WoW, if you don't have a priestly fellow on hand. Ah but still a lovely reaction as always. Have a fine day or night!
When you get to artorias and Gwynn watch the remastered versions
When you reach Artorias prepare to cry lore video THEN the title will have a true meaning...oh man...
Absolutely check out Artorias' Prepare to Cry Remastered, its essential.
What's funny is, while these story's ARE sad, they are some of the least sad (in my opinion) of the series. Look forward to more though!
Make sure to watch the Remastered ones instead of OG ones
better quality IMO
Hoping to see you guys react to Vatis lord of frenzied flame.
@giveaway881 Go away spam bot.
Oh wow, these are REALLY old videos of vaati
Now you have to watch his artorias video
If you like this theory, you may enjoy another one done by a youtuber called Hawkshaw, who adds quite a lot to the theory ad well as somevery different perspectives.

I am not sure if you guys have been recommended Berzerk but I recommend this video, ruclips.net/video/PpX-NTHpU3g/видео.html it's pretty long but you guys could do like 45 minute chunks or diviy it up how you want. If you start with the compilation which I recommend, just try the first 28:43. If you like what you hear try out more of it. The recommended video is a compilation cut so there are individual videos but they are all multi hour videos. Berzerk is a modern day masterpiece and sadly won't be finished by it's creator.
Can you guys watch Callisto Protocol all deaths. This is my first recommendation 🤩
You HAVE to watch The Legend of Artorias Prepare to Cry Remastered. It's the best one.
@giveaway881 Thanks Asshat
Didn't realize Pinwheel was a Necromancer, all I knew was that he was the easiest boss that people make a mockery of, which I agree, he is easiest of all bosses and can grant the mask of the father, one of the armor pieces for a community favorite build, GiantDad, mighty large zweihander, and Giant's armor, pro at Player Versus Player!
And for Iron Knight Tarkus? He's amazing, his spirit summon can simply solo the Iron Golem boss fight, and as for the Iron Golem gameplay-wise? Hit it in the legs enough times and it will stagger, hit more and it will tumble and fall on its back, it's funny seeing the Iron Golem fall off to its death!
Sekiro has the easiest boss imo. Litrtally just spam attack and you'll most likely kill it (don't remember it's name but everyone knows what I mean)
@@ThatsOk83 I know you're talking about the Mist Noble, and I shoulda specified that Pinwheel is the easiest boss in Dark Souls 1.
honestly watch the lord of frenzied flame from vaatividya, it's his best video by far
You think THIS is sad? Hoo boy you are in for a ride when it comes to Elden rings curse of despair... THAT is a gut wrencher... TT
Oh! You're doing prepare to cry all the way back in Dark Souls 1. Thought you'd start with the Elden Ring ones.
Elden Ring is a different universe and not related to Dark Souls, but the Dark Souls ones are worth watching as well. Vaati remastered most of his old ones to have much better sound, though. Probably watch those.
Ah, yes love these lore videos!
.right. tellurian.
😎🤟
Huh, interesting Stories.
I would really like to see your reaction to league of legends Aurelions Sol trailer, voice lines, as well as his newest trailer that just came out. Also his lore is very interesting!
Check out tarnished archeologist
Siegmeyer of Catarina is a good one and of course Artorias the Abyss Walker
Please react to “Mad world finishers exhibition”.
plsss react to mortal kombat armageddon endings haha !! sending much love to the both of you ❤
btw another small fact the "tomb" pinwheel lived his days in after revival was actually a giants coffin u fall in from the top where the coffin is cracked open after fighting ur way thru undead giants
😯😨
I heard it's the easiest boss in the first game and looks like it has the saddest story too. Artorius's story is great too that's the one I heard or watched about.
You can run through the catacombs and bully him even at starting level. He’s a joke, and if you want to fight a joke with a joke, you can literally summon the Paladin Leeroy Jenkins as an npc to fight him. Leeroy will crush him beneath his sacred hammer, killing him in two to three hits.
React to lucatiel of mirrah prepare to cry please
You guys should react to elden ring summary by maxor
You should watch some Bloodborne lore by Vati
We will 😅
For being one of the weakest bosses, pinwheel left a huge impression on me, lorewise.
Consider watching Happy Souls if you want something a bit more light hearted but it's a lot of in jokes about Dark Souls 2.
Let her do the intro at least once 🤭
Haha, we’ve switched it up in the past but then it just became habit to 🤗
Can y'all react to the new apex legends launch trailer I mean you guys haven't reacted to apex in a while plus you've even made a drink about apex (the loba crush)
Artorias next surely
Oh i thought for sure they would have added the fair lady's story. Super sad : (
We will check out more of the stories and get to it at some point 😅
A huge theme of Dark Souls is that the undead haven't fully lost their cognitive abilities and fight to keep their sanity, so that they don't lose their mind and become a "hollow" which is more of a proper zombie. The knight in the tower that is struggling to count is just finding a way to try and maintain his humanity. That is why everyone is desperately trying to find a fix.
Look up: Dark Souls: In Summary by PlagueOfGripes.
Seconded
YES
Thanks for vid recommendation 🙂
It's kind of funny because Pinwheel is really interesting but in game, he's just that weird boss almost nobody had trouble with so he's kind of a joke. It does show the care that went into environmental storytelling with these games and the great art design of the creatures. It just sucks you can't really take it all in when they are trying to eviscerate you.
'yes'. like some (in Gameplay) other named Ta'aurc. for another comical example.
