Vaati, I don't know if you noticed but Gostoc is examining the left arm of the dead body (the same arm he is missing) so it is likely he wants to graft himself a new arm.

[sirflimflam]

Wow...Morgott's body fading into the guidance of grace and pointing from Godfrey to the player is such an impactful detail that I absolutely did not realize in the moment. I wish I had.

[SamuraiCaveman]

I think the fire wasn't removed from Morgott's intro animation to hide the blade's P2 effect but because the writers realized that Morgott wouldn't want to use any kind of fire magic so close to the Erdtree as fire is considered sinful by the golden order.

[jacoboswald]

I think it might sound really cool if Ranni's voice was doubled, but only as a whisper and only on certain words. So it makes you think you heard a second voice from her, but you could also just mistake it for your own imagination.

[shannonconnor]

Something interesting i just noticed about Renna's (Ranni's) appearance at the start of the game. She appears to fill the church with a sleeping mist, given it's color and the fact that Kale has his head bowed during her interaction. Given that she's a powerful magic user, I could see her being able to selectively apply the effects of her sleep spell so you aren't affected. Cool little detail about how she can keep her appearances outside her tower secret

[coolnamebro]

The love Radahn has for animals is kind of explained by the 'Beast Champion Armor' description. It read
"Beasts are drawn to champions, and to lords. And this armor befits a champion worthy of becoming a lord."
Radahn having lots of animal companions could be a nod to his worthiness.

[VaatiVidya]

So good news - my audio narration quality should dramatically improve in the next video! I somehow never realised how much of a difference a good audio interface can make, and this new one is putting in work. Excited for that. Prepare to Cry soon!

[IamLebed]

About two girls at the Stargazer ruins. By combining their names, you can actually find out, that they form a name for jellyfish species Aurelia Aurita (Moon Jellyfish). Pretty interesting detail, considering the form of girls' spirits

[cldbrew]

Gostoc missing an arm is most likely a result of him being a thief. People used to be punished when they were caught stealing by having a hand or arm chopped off. Very fitting for Gostoc's character.

[RendezvousWithRama]

I really like Morgott's crumbling sword with no flames. It now looks like he's gripping it so hard that the stone falls away. This crushing grip is a much more visceral reminder of the amount of rage he had to bottle up for his entire life.

[Turian_Hustle]

A cool detail I haven’t seen anyone cover is Rykard’s eyes. In the cutscene where Rykard opens his eyes, you can see a red accent with the gold; implying that the Elder Serpent is vying for full control over Rykard, but doesn’t quite over come Rykard’s ambition and Grace. Then, when you defeat Rykard and his head is on the ground, the red is gone and only gold is left in his eyes. Really cool.

[Ziostorm]

Love how many secrets are in this game. Even ones that take influence from art history and folk lore are so awesome.

[rhynlock]

I would have loved that the jelly fish ash to be upgraded by summoning a second jelly fish or summoning a much stronger one if you get Aurelia to see her sister

[elvenring]

I love the significance of the small detail of Godfrey's Guidance. He stopped seeing grace after he felled his last worthy adversary. The Greater Will Itself literally views the player as worthy at this point.

[thesnoms]

19:28 On my first time playing I had Gostoc under suspicion in my head, thinking he was trying to lure me into some trap when told me of the hole in the wall, so I acted on these suspicions and killed him, felt pretty guilty hearing his death dialogue. Slightly relieved hearing he was a lanky thief, yet still feeling guilty

[MeredithLikely]

The near extinct language was really incredible. I wonder if we'll see more in the dlc? I'd be excited for more history and hidden bits!

[ItsVeeVA]

24:20 the idea of Gideon watching me slaughter Malenia, just to think "yup, I can take them" is hilarious to me

[Aelethil]

I'm gonna be honest, I saved boc completely on accident He wanted the larval tear and I did the your beautiful pate as a joke and when the dialogue hit I actually got really sad I has forgotten that while the prattling pate sounds like a raspy whisper to us the player... to those in universe it's the voice of the most loved person in their life...

[petar]

I was wondering, now that you mentioned the two jellyfish sisters and how they wish to see the stars, what if they were born after Radahn stopped the stars? Considering you almost certainly kill Radahn before getting to the reunion, you give them the opportunity to act upon their last wish as you have finally freed the stars from Radahns grasp.

[erops]

The reason why Ainu is a dying language is because Japanese government slaughtered this population, fmab talk about this situation with the Ishval war referencing it (to everyone wondering no it was not a WW2 reference)
