►I'd like to give sincere thanks to all my patrons - your contributions have changed the course of my life, allowing me to put more emphasis on video production in the future.

[Auralnauts]

I appreciate how much you left in this edit. It's surprisingly encouraging to see someone with such an intimate grasp on combat still bork a fight from time to time and panic roll until he dies.

[VaatiVidya]

Some of you might have seen this video already, as I uploaded a bad version yesterday - it had terrible audio desync in the second half. I made the tough decision to fix it and reupload - the YouTube algorithm is not going to be happy with me lol

[xurwolfe]

CAN WE HAVE A SERIES LIKE THIS??? I LOVE THIS STYLE, I WILL LOVE TO BINGE IT

[Defenestration_of_Prague]

I want a series of this so bad. Each land having a small story arc. Incredible.

Defeating Margit is actually not required to go to the roundtable hold.

If you explore the world enough, she also invites you without ever beating a boss.

[ginnotbrandy]

This game has genuinely brought back that feeling of wonder for me. For the first time in a long time I get excited waiting to get off work so i can continue exploring this vast and beautiful world.

[SonicHaXD]

Vati casually explaining the lore of the Grafted Scion while completely wrecking it XD

[tecknyne]

Wonderful delivery, I spent a few hours wondering if my memory was false as I couldn't find this video when searching after seeing it on my recommended feed, almost gave up and decided I was either mistaken and created a false memory of you posting a new Elden ring video or you posted the video in another timeline and I somehow branched out of it in my way home from work. Glad to see I was mistaken and it really existed.

Just started on the weeping peninsula yesterday. Then I got hit by a transport trap and realised the map is so much bigger then I thought.

[ethanmurray]

Funny anecdote, I thought someone I was summoned to help was wearing a really cool looking helmet that I hadn't found yet when I realized it was actually the regular Kaiden helm and he'd just been nailed twice in the head by the flying enemies who shoot feathers giving him a very fashionable plume

[Rexwar]

I still love “don’t just rush through it” because I am still well into the game, level 104 on my character and I have *just* left the capital.

[Revaks]

After having played through this, listening to it back with your story beats breakdowns makes it SO MUCH BETTER. Thank you!

[VaatiVidya]

At 24:37 I say that "Morne" was Irina's companion..but that's not true. Eygon is his name, and Morne is the apostle referenced in the armour that he wears. I always get their names mixed up in my head!

Also, at 12:27 I say that you have to defeat Margit to get to Roundtable Hold - but of course, this isn't the only way. You can also go around Stormveil to Liurnia to trigger this, and it seems if you simply explore enough other areas that it will trigger eventually as well.

[SRFriso]

I loved exploring Castle Morne, it just had such a rich atmosphere of a lost fortress, and a pretty cool boss at the end. Though that courtyard I can sum up in two words: fuck dogs. The one thing that will never change in FromSoft games.

[smugf]

I want this series to continue!!! It’s so calming to listen to and gives so much lore while the gameplay goes it’s so

[tennesseeheckler]

Only 5 minutes in, and WOW! You doing a play through while talking about the lore is the best lets play I have ever seen, hands down. Pleas tell me you plan to do the whole game this way! Pure awesome.

Honestly Vaati, I feel you on the “fear of missing out” thing with this game.

I greatly appreciate your videos like this one which point out some interesting places to go and bosses to fight.
By taking your time to play through the game slowly and making these videos, it’s helping prevent ME (and probably several others) from just rushing through to the end either on purpose or accidentally.

I accidentally skipped basically all of the content in Limgrave and fought the first major boss before even getting the whetstone or crafting kit.

So just remember that you’re not only increasing your own enjoyment of the game by exploring its depth, you’re also helping every one of your viewers get the true Elden Ring experience at the same time.

[gascan]

PLEASE do more of this. I love this format, highlighting some of the environmental storytelling I missed. Also I love the idea of you going through each episode with a different build and showcasing some key items for it.

Seriously, love this and I hope to see a full playthrough in this style, though I imagine it takes a lot of time.

[prismer]

Would love that you'd continue with this playthrough... explaining the lore as you go is just perfect.

[thareapr]

Already played it for about 50 hours, it feels like From Soft made a near perfect game, I can complain about very small details, like that one time I didnt have a checkpoint infront of the boss, but in general the game feels incredible. Especially some of the later bosses leaving me to think about the encounter for a few minutes before I could do anything else, like mouth open marveling at the screen.
Truly a game worthy to be beaten without rolling, soul level 1, no estus, blindfolded while playing on the donkey kong bongas
