The ENTIRE Lore of Elden Ring - Part 1

In this compilation Lore video I will be pulling together all of my work on Elden Ring from the past two years into cohesive mega videos, ideal for long watch while you work or sleep. This will be part 1 of three and given the sheer size of this video, I think you can appreciate why we split it into three. In this video we will cover the Elden Ring Timeline, the Ancient Dragons, The Carians, The Outer Gods, The Frenzied Flame and much much more.

I swear only you could upload a 13 hour lore video and call it Part 1. Can't wait to get into this.

[pulaks]

Love these bite sized uploads, hoping you’ll start uploading long-form content soon brother 😂

[x.berkay]

Human lore: 2 hours
elden ring lore (part 1): 13 hours

[maestrrsantarael]

This is an example of what lore videos should be: clear, orderly, based on original texts. I think you have the best lore videos in the whole souls community

[donavinflintoff]

Tried to show my buddy some Elden ring lore. “13 hours?! Part one?!” I think we scared him away

[GitGud_Plz]

The fact that SmoughTown put in the blood, sweat, and tears to upload a 13 hour, 37 minute, and 37 second video and then have the audacity to say this is Part 1 of 3 made my jaw drop like gawd damn… and I’m totally here for it!!

[CheeseWedgeFrenchToast]

After listening to this masterpiece while working on other things over the past month, I can only say that this is a masterpiece on Elden Ring Lore! The way that you repeatedly consult other scholars of the Lore, the way that you often check translations and give warnings of speculation. You have fundamentally changed the way that I view the Elden Ring lore, and I'm very excited to start the second part right after this! Amazing video SmoughTown!

[WaterFlame]

Only Smoughtown, out of all the lore youtubers I know, could make a 13 hour video filled with compelling lore and speculation. You are one of the greatest lore youtubers I've ever known, and I wish you good fortune in the days to come. Merry Christmas!

3:05:15 Im so happy someone has finally mentioned Hawkshaw's colour theory of Elden Ring video. It might be my favourite video on all of youtube, just for its presentation, clarity and the feeling of unraveling the laws, as if I could pick up a pen and start writing new stories set in the universe.
Absolute masterpiece 👏

[bendelaughter]

As a video editor myself, I cannot possibly imagine the amount of time that went into making these 3 videos.

From information gathering, to writing a cohesive script, to actually recording and mixing the voice over, to getting all of the footage and screenshots, to actually editing it all together in a way that makes sense and is pleasing to watch.

You sir, are a legend, and anyone who has ever played Elden Ring needs to see these videos. It's criminal that these videos don't have millions of views each.

Thank you for your dedication and passion to not only finding all of this out, but sharing it in such a beautiful way.

[sheepwshotguns]

holy shit.... 30+ hours of lore total, and im just 10 minutes in thinking. this isn't loaded with filler, this is gunna be dense. amazing...

[miroslavbeganovic]

Part 2 better be available in 14 hours!

All jokes aside, we all appreciate the level of effort and detail that go into your videos that provide a lot of insight and explanation on this incredible game

[Sealionborn]

Easily the greatest Lore Youtuber. Especially appreciate the way you cite your sources and give credit to your peers, gives the videos a more legitimate "academic" feel.

[wtcqsqr]

Civilization 1000 years from now are going to be studying this lore like it actually happened 😂

[argentgoat]

Geez, really trying to hit that 10 minute mark with this one.

[lilstamp]

4:25 dude I’m so hype for tarnished archeologist. I’ve been such a huge fan and honestly I love love love that you’ve taken the time to do this. This unironically might turn into my bedtime “show” for awhile.

[darthacez]

13 hours is insane showing the rich lore of Elden Ring.
Great job mate!
Gotta find time to replay Elden Ring.

[Dhurak]

I have a habit of listening to audiobooks to help me sleep but what you've made here is simply amazing. The amount of replays I've had to do to catch up and STILL end up nodding off, not to mention it's enticed me to retry Elden Ring is simply brilliant. Subscribed. Thank you for creating this content!

[federicoleggeri]

Man i don't know if I'll be able to see all these 36 hours of this massive documentary, but I just want to say thank you for all your work!

[Zigeuninja]

I downloaded the audio of this video and have been listening to it while working. Almost 4 hours in, really helpful and well structured despite some topics being repeated a few times. Theres still so much I had no clue about even though I got 100% in the game and have watched a ton of other lore videos.
