I told my father that Elden Ring was being cocreated by GRRM, and he instantly asked “So it’s incomplete?” Seriously where tf is book 6 it’s been 11 years
To give you some hope (or maybe just copium) I think he’s trying to make sure he fully fleshes out his world before finishing the series. He evidently takes inspiration from Tolkien and understands that his life’s work is the world of A song of ice and fire. He seems to want to make sure he has fire and blood, dunk and egg, and his other full world contributions done before finishing his life’s work. I also imagine the bungling of the later seasons of got made him more aware of the necessity of his oversight in future film adaptation, and he has been putting in much more work overseeing hotd than he otherwise would have. Hypothetically, this all allows him to do a better and more complete job in writing the last books before the end of his working life. I’ve also heard it said that his understudy team has an even deeper knowledge of his world than he does, and I have faith that they would be able to finish his creation if he gets past his time of writing. This is all a bunch of conjecture on my part, but I do feel that he is working towards finishing his larger world and ASOIAF is going to be the overall endpoint of that. 13 years is nuts tho, hopefully he’ll get on to it eventually lol
@@evanmcdonald9134 The problem he's going to have is that a lot of people don't care about the story anymore. I read the last book over 10 years ago, have forgotten large portions of it, and have no interest in rereading them or reading any new ones by him. The guy needs to learn how to finish something.
I pray that one day we will get GRRMs writing for Elden Ring published. It'd be so cool to see the differences and changes made, to get a huge influx of lore to slap all those internet theorists in the face.
no. i dont want that and it fundamentally goes against the narrative style of the souls extended universe. miyazaki based it on his childhood experience of half understanding english fantasy novels and filling up the gap with his imagination. that is what the community likes and no one wants to slap internet theorists across the face other than a bunch of new players used to the classic infodump method of telling stories.
As someone who has gotten very into A Song of Ice and Fire lore, the background story 100% feels like something GRRM wrote. He is incredible at depicting a world on the very brink of calamity, he's been doing that for the past decade while writing the winds of winter.
He didn’t tho he just wrote some of the history and they used a little bit of it he didn’t write the story or anything like they he gave Miyazaki some inspiration
It's definitely part of the soulsbourne franchise. FS even reused assets. It is technically a sequel, in that it's part of a very specific franchise/genre of games that this studio launched and popularized. 😊
Bro accidentally exposed Miyazaki's hidden fantasy. They're all connected. So all theories are true. Elden Ring is Dark Souls, and the Blood of the Dark Soul from DS3 makes Bloodborne.
@@samf.s.7731no it's not, words have importance. Elden Ring isn't a sequel, it's a spiritual successor like Dark Souls was to Demon's Souls or Sekiro to Tenchu.
@@lahunica2726I feel you but let us dream. You can’t tell me you haven’t thought about how dark souls is about the lands of darkness. And finally bringing light to it, now pretend for a sec Elden ring IS “ds4.” The light you finally brought to the world in 3 (assuming you did the true ending) finally prospers. This whole land of the golden order comes into power, and just like anything. Too much of one thing becomes bad. This golden order became corrupted. And thus it’s up to you to bring the world back to darkness. Back to the beginning , with your demon soul 😂😂

There’s a lot of inspiration from Martin’s Wildcards series and from his earlier high fantasy series instead of his game of thrones stuff. I love how the game just seems like big callbacks to his older works. If you read his short stories you’ll find really interesting bits that relate to elden ring.

Honestly would be really cool if From Soft gave us the original notes on what GRR wrote just so we could see his idea of the world before Miyazaki got involved.
I like that way of describing Miyazaki’s approach to world building and story They start by describing a series of characters, creatures, gods and demigods with this ancient past of glory, power struggles, wars and divinity. Then we come to it in the game at a point of late stage entropy. The world, the people, the creatures, the gods themselves have been killed, mutilated, warped, deformed or driven to madness. That’s what we play in. An ancient world in which every character has been killed or destroyed in some way.
That could be really cool actualy, like its set right as the greater will arrives in the Lands and you play a char desperetly trying to fight off this monsterous parasite while others submit in exchange for vast powers.

Tbh it can be. In the ending of ringed city, the painter using the blood of dark souls to make a new world, it can be sekiro or elden ring. ( Also it mean Dev using experience when making dark souls to make a better game )
There's a theory that the Frenzied Flame ending is the prequel to the Dark Souls games. Which became later known as the first flame when everything got destroyed and everything became one for an untold amount of time.
Sequel- *a published, broadcast, or recorded work that continues the story or develops the theme of an earlier one.* Elden Ring is very much a continuation of the themes of Dark Souls. In its lore and the gameplay. George himself wrote the backstory, so obviously he'd know it's not a sequel in the traditional sense. But surely you'd agree that the Sims 3 is a sequel to the Sims 2, even if it doesn't actually continue the same story?
I really don't think the lore and mythos are the most important part of Elden Ring. Story alone doesn't keep people playing for 100 hours. That's the gameplay including the combat and the exploration.
It’s what makes the soul game’s interesting. It’s always after a big event and the world is usually dying or decaying. So the story you understand is your story but once you actually want to know more there’s a rabbit hole of information that’s connect really well. It’s almost like you in disbelief of what the world used to be like but the evidence is all around you. Even the bosses are usually in bad shape and it makes you wonder what they were in their prime when the world wasn’t decaying or dark souls. It’s a awesome feeling to see something interesting or weird and looking up the lore behind it. Also the facts it not written but people have to piece the story together Is perfect in a way.
Ish, he made 5,000 years worth of history, that history is not linear tho, maybe it was at some point, but the linearity is inaccessible to us. As a result, the 5,000 year is not a really meaningful designation of time. Years are time it takes for the sun to travel around the earth. Does that describe the lands between?
Mate Elden Ring is basically Dark Souls 4 but worse. Its indistinguishable in its gameplay. Its Dark Souls with spirit summons, a jump button and a horse, and weaker bosses with small counter windows and long combo strings.
This game is clearly a sequel of ds3, a world born after the dark age seen in the true ending of ringed city... Exactly like bloodborne is the sequel of ashes of ariandel (and ds1 for demon). That's proved by the fact that miyazaki confirmed the connection between déraciné and bloodborne
No, it’s not, I hate that people have this idea when it’s so obviously not true. Miyazaki has said multiple times that all of the series are separate, furthermore, it being a sequel does not even make sense, and completely ignores essential lore details in both series. Also, Miyazaki came out and said that the Bloodborne reference in deracine, was just an Easter egg. Stop spreading false information, it’s a separate world will separate lore and characters.
@@nightrain1121 no, I've read all interviews of miyazaki and he never denied the connections in his games (except for sekiro, where avoided the question for copyright reason). in fact he called the easter eggs about bb in déraciné as little nodes and he said that they exaggerated with them (fueling rumors about bloodborne 2). Moreover in an interview about bloodborne he randomly stated that the game shares a lot of things with painted worlds of dark souls (answering out of context when asked about the interconnection of the map). if you think about what they did with ashes ariandel, where a " "cold, dark, and very gentle place" is painted with the blood of the dark souls, everything is obvious... and ashes of ariandel is a painted world with a culture based on blood, hunters and werewolfs (ds3 ending was already written at the time of bb)
@@nightrain1121 if you don't believe me read the interviews at the bottom. Anyway could you explain me with part of the lore would be in contrast with the fact that those game are connected? Anyway read: "the significance of déraciné to bloodborne" "Our full miyazaki sekiro interview" "miyazaki bloodborne full interview"
@@untipo. no, clearly you haven’t. Just because these games have similar themes does not mean they are in the same universe. Miyazaki has stated multiple times that he prefers creating new worlds. Besides, the lore just doesn’t match up. Feel free to have your head canon and theories, but stop presenting them as facts.
The amount of artistry in games now is incredible, im glad I was born in a time when I could see this. Out of the millions of years before or after this time, here we are now, how lucky
Now that I think about it that would be a very fun game to do with friends who are also into world building, one person makes a beautiful amazing mythos and the other and meth dragons.
I like to imagine Miyazaki just has a little playful godsim session where he kills everyone in his office after being all professional accepting a stack of papers with the mythos.
He created the lore to literally the most overlapped levels in a open world fantasy game with literally the best rewarding moments I've ever experienced in a game
@ZeeVoke the idea of bouncing off of another writer's ideas has always appealed to me because it basically nullifies writer's block to a certain degree. You just write until you run out of ideas and then the other person makes more for you to bounce off of and iterate on

There's a theory that the Frenzied Flame ending is the prequel to the Dark Souls games. Which became later known as the first flame when everything got destroyed and everything became one for an untold amount of time.
Sequel-
*a published, broadcast, or recorded work that continues the story or develops the theme of an earlier one.*
Elden Ring is very much a continuation of the themes of Dark Souls. In its lore and the gameplay.
George himself wrote the backstory, so obviously he'd know it's not a sequel in the traditional sense. But surely you'd agree that the Sims 3 is a sequel to the Sims 2, even if it doesn't actually continue the same story?
I really don't think the lore and mythos are the most important part of Elden Ring. Story alone doesn't keep people playing for 100 hours. That's the gameplay including the combat and the exploration.
True but lore and visual storytelling are an important part of what makes the exploration fun and illuminating
It’s what makes the soul game’s interesting. It’s always after a big event and the world is usually dying or decaying. So the story you understand is your story but once you actually want to know more there’s a rabbit hole of information that’s connect really well. It’s almost like you in disbelief of what the world used to be like but the evidence is all around you.
Even the bosses are usually in bad shape and it makes you wonder what they were in their prime when the world wasn’t decaying or dark souls. It’s a awesome feeling to see something interesting or weird and looking up the lore behind it. Also the facts it not written but people have to piece the story together Is perfect in a way.
you can defiantly play the game without knowing the lore but the moment you do it really pushes it from good game to great game.
Found the guy who can't read
Something you knew, then forgot, and then are pleased to find out again.
Man will do anything but right his last damn book
He's got two more in A Song of Ice and Fire
the story is amazing it's just a shame the miyazaki seems to think every game he makes has to be bleakly depressing
tears of the kindgom is the happy version
Elden ring is very brigjt, hopeful and happy compared to bloodborne and ds3
That's why it's called Dark Fantasy bro, living in the middle ages sucked.
Ish, he made 5,000 years worth of history, that history is not linear tho, maybe it was at some point, but the linearity is inaccessible to us. As a result, the 5,000 year is not a really meaningful designation of time. Years are time it takes for the sun to travel around the earth. Does that describe the lands between?
Well we get DLC soon so that makes his contributions interesting and relevant now.
LOL BREXIT, seriously, whoever voted for Brexit should be ashamed
No
@@MaQuGo119 yes actually
I'm lucky I wasn't old enough to make the mistake of voting for brexit
Wtf
He doesn't even know about the game. It's literally not a sequel to anything
They are the same genre. Maybe he just got confused. He is like 80.
@@thedarklord2130 yeah I know. I'm just saying people like to use that as evidence
He means it like being a successor to dark souls, not a direct sequel.
Mate Elden Ring is basically Dark Souls 4 but worse. Its indistinguishable in its gameplay. Its Dark Souls with spirit summons, a jump button and a horse, and weaker bosses with small counter windows and long combo strings.
@@Krystalmyth it doesn't even have the same style
Both are two of the absolute best storytellers of our time in all honesty
Martin adding wolves to all the royalty and modeling Horah Loux as Tommen The Golden King is absolutely insane, ngl.
This game is clearly a sequel of ds3, a world born after the dark age seen in the true ending of ringed city... Exactly like bloodborne is the sequel of ashes of ariandel (and ds1 for demon). That's proved by the fact that miyazaki confirmed the connection between déraciné and bloodborne
No, it’s not, I hate that people have this idea when it’s so obviously not true. Miyazaki has said multiple times that all of the series are separate, furthermore, it being a sequel does not even make sense, and completely ignores essential lore details in both series. Also, Miyazaki came out and said that the Bloodborne reference in deracine, was just an Easter egg. Stop spreading false information, it’s a separate world will separate lore and characters.
@@nightrain1121 no, I've read all interviews of miyazaki and he never denied the connections in his games (except for sekiro, where avoided the question for copyright reason). in fact he called the easter eggs about bb in déraciné as little nodes and he said that they exaggerated with them (fueling rumors about bloodborne 2). Moreover in an interview about bloodborne he randomly stated that the game shares a lot of things with painted worlds of dark souls (answering out of context when asked about the interconnection of the map).
if you think about what they did with ashes ariandel, where a " "cold, dark, and very gentle place" is painted with the blood of the dark souls, everything is obvious... and ashes of ariandel is a painted world with a culture based on blood, hunters and werewolfs (ds3 ending was already written at the time of bb)
@@nightrain1121 if you don't believe me read the interviews at the bottom. Anyway could you explain me with part of the lore would be in contrast with the fact that those game are connected?
Anyway read:
"the significance of déraciné to bloodborne"
"Our full miyazaki sekiro interview"
"miyazaki bloodborne full interview"
@@untipo. no, clearly you haven’t. Just because these games have similar themes does not mean they are in the same universe. Miyazaki has stated multiple times that he prefers creating new worlds. Besides, the lore just doesn’t match up. Feel free to have your head canon and theories, but stop presenting them as facts.
@@untipo. it’s not about belief, you are objectively, diametrically wrong.
I like the concept. Have one Human make an amazing and interesting world and then see what another Human does with it...
The amount of artistry in games now is incredible, im glad I was born in a time when I could see this. Out of the millions of years before or after this time, here we are now, how lucky
He made sure that each of the main boss bore one of his initials. G R M...
shit man really there's not a single demigod&god whose initials aren't G or R or M when you think about it
Finish the goddamned book, Georgie!
I love the editing style here. I just subscribed
Thank you!
So this guy's job is to come in and fuck things up. I love him
"Can we your name"
"Yes"
Here, that's his contribution.
Oh, another project that isn't his next book that I've been waiting on for 12 years
*sigh* I guess I’ll pull another all nighter to play Elden Ring again
videos like Tarnished Archeologist’s are what highlights his influence
Now that I think about it that would be a very fun game to do with friends who are also into world building, one person makes a beautiful amazing mythos and the other and meth dragons.
I honestly believe GRRM couldn't deliver all the work asked from him on time, and so Miyasaki picked up the rest.
And in doing so he killed another small piece of my soul by not having a release date for winds of winter
Martin looks like his straight off a fishing boat.
It's so great that people of older generations are able to appreciate and resect the artform of video game creation/development
What’s also cool is it gives room for them to make a version where you are IN the events that happened 5,000 years ago
That’s such a sick idea to create a story, I didn’t know that’s how they did it.
thats cool, i was wondering about this. So you only see his impact through as the background setting
Missed opportunity for GRRM who could ask shrek to be added in Miyazaki swamp fetish for lore reason
GRRM put his mushroom stamp on the franchise by naming every character with a G an R or an M
...gd just give me winds of winter!
The mythos he created screams game of thrones. His DNA is all over it.
If only there was lore and not item descriptions
I like to imagine Miyazaki just has a little playful godsim session where he kills everyone in his office after being all professional accepting a stack of papers with the mythos.
miazaki:now im become death destroyer of the lore
It’s always Psychic Trees with GRRM
Oh he just berserk'd his world
Man will do literally anything to avoid finishing his books 🤣
"He killed every character," yep that definitely his work
He created the lore to literally the most overlapped levels in a open world fantasy game with literally the best rewarding moments I've ever experienced in a game
That is a fascinating way to make a world! I wanna try this with a friend
It’s a super fun way to go about it!
@ZeeVoke the idea of bouncing off of another writer's ideas has always appealed to me because it basically nullifies writer's block to a certain degree. You just write until you run out of ideas and then the other person makes more for you to bounce off of and iterate on
Is that the fucking league of legends question mark ping? I might have brain damage...
He named 99% of the characters starting with the letter G,R,M. For some reason...
Creative way to create a lore
That’s actually crazy to think about
Finish the books George, finish the books
'how did you create the world of elden ring?'
'well i played dark souls 1 and thought hey if they made it three times already why not go for four'
Thanks Berserk for the most important contribution literally all the coolest shit is almost always from Berserk
To be fair, with how GRRM perceives time, 10 years is a few years. I mean we're still waiting man, we're still waiting.
The only thing I could imagine George adding to the game is the Dung Eater.
The whole family situation in the Demi-Gods was very GoT
