20,000 Subscriber Q&A!

[@michaelorourke36]

u look nothing like I thought u would XD

[@michaelorourke36]

And u should try elder scrolls online! I love Valenwood in it

[@kylevickers4978]

that was my first thought as well haha

[@sashasoltys5805]

Michael O'Rourke I agree! haha

[@jmitterii2]

I was pleasantly surprised what he actually looks like. Bronze and brains meet! :) And he's handsome. I thought he would either look like a rat faced accountant or some husky neck beard.

[@shooterrick1]

jmitterii2 what? You think us hardcore Tolkien enthusiasts all look like neckbeards :D

[@tysonmccorkle1036]

I don't know why, but i always imagined you to look like Prince Imrahil (the version from your profile pic to be exact)

[@Catstecc]

16:41 " I'm gonna cut those out", Yes, of course lazy Galu :D

[@Catstecc]

And nice video by the way

[@petesperandio]

I thought you'd have longer hair, to be honest. I certainly didn't think you'd be a rugby playing Captain Kirk from TOS, but the Q&A was awesome and I hope that your channel lives long and prospers!

[@JohnyRelax]

wait what..this guy looks normal...not how i imagined :)

[@JTB_1020]

Johny Relax Normal is weird? It's the Everyman's Channel.

[@aaronbrogan3401]

You're a beautiful soul, thanks for all you do

[@SprySpace]

I'm very glad that you have a very good view per subscriber count, it speaks good for your content! You are one of the few youtubers i try to watch every video of :)

[@bane9933]

I for one was not expecting Arachir to look like a rugby player

[@Sean_TH]

"I could not be bothered to edit it." Haha that is the Arachîr we all know and love. Simplicity for the win.

[@Noodle5858]

Love your voice, Love the mod. I have always loved LOTR but never had the time or motivation to delve into the depths. Keep up the work and thanks for letting us delve a bit into your life.

[@Grumpy_Pirate]

Grats on the 20k mate :)

[@pieradoodythomas6399]

So happy to have this video!Thank you so much. I have listened to the previous one loads of times. I love your voice and listened to you throughout my pregnancy. Now I use your voice to calm my baby, who is not named Lord Admiral Horatio Nelson if you were wondering....

[@bookybrony526]

The Fall of Arnor might be better done as a mini series.

[@RoastedSabretooth]

First of all thank you for taking the time to read all those questions(mine included). In case you are wondering legend is considered to be the best med2 player out there and a fantastic(imo) youtuber. Btw loved the face reveal and gj thus far.

[@delphi5966]

I found the channel when searching for Middle Earth lore and landed on your series of Middle Earth lore videos and I have been hooked. Thank you. I listen to them as I work on my Middle Earth 3D fantasy renders.

[@Jauzness87]

DAC really is amazing, and has come such a long way. It's incredible playing this mod and feeling all the "life" across the map. All those small touches like campaign map points of interest, unique buildings with lore and unique units makes all the factions feel worth playing.

[@Immort4llity]

Hey Galu, I'm a new subscriber! I have gotten into Third Age TW by watching youtubers like Lionheart and Pixelated Apollo, and started playing Divide & Conquer myself and it's BY FAR my favorite Total War adaptation (including all the original games) to play and watch. I think you and the mod team got everything down perfectly and I especially love the custom scripts you guys added which make the game so much deeper. Then I found out you have a channel on youtube so thanks for all your hard work and passion so all of us eager middle earth lovers can dive straight in!

[@skunkrebell]

Congratulations for 20.000 subscribers. For the long time I am watching your videos I have to mention that you kept yourself authentic and that is great!

[@oldtoby4062]

Thanks for the video Galu. Keep up the good work. 20,000... think about that! Clearly doing something right.

[@bradymerz653]

Congrats on 20,000!!! Love the channel and have been following the channel since the first ND campaign. Keep up the top notch content

[@Rintse]

I have never played the game, but the Tolkien lore videos are super comprehensive and massively satisfactory to my inner lore nerd. The way they feel: the podcast-y atmosphere makes them great to listen to in the background whilst doing other things. Keep em up :)

[@zaluk1041]

Gosh just seeing this puts into perspective how far you've come since the last Q&A, which seems only yesterday!

[@morleyjones9]

This was plain and simple brilliant. Literally matched opinion and ideology so much! I myself am a music "hybrid" and listen to a LOT of two steps from hell, (with obviously heart of courage being the best.) In addition with the flags very interested and am also a firm proud imperialist! Despite acceptance of constructive criticism I would ignore any comment as I have to say your unique style is simply brilliant! the fact that you don't watch any let's plays is a positive one as you being your own style to the videos and as a fond dac player the insight about updates is very interesting. Have been subsicred since before 700 subscribers the growth and quality increase of your channel I have to commend! Great work! P.s off point (as a Welshman obviously) what's your opinion of the Lions squad which I thought tied in nearly with the rugby/New Zealand theme of the video?

[@corylionbar8121]

I'm about to sit my 2nd year LLB exams and your videos distract me from the stresses that come along with exams, so thank you and keep it up!

[@Fismajster101]

Dude, This was so awkward. Almost all the answers you gave were similiar or the same as I would say. The music, the prefered weather all of that. I felt like you're doing a Q&A for me as well xD . Love you so much, keep up the great work.

[@alexandermelrose0404]

Keep up the good work. I love the channel and the sub-mod. By the way, I like the Oda armor figurine in the background. I own the Date figurine.

Ah!!! So do I! :) Date was directly behind me in the video so you couldn't see him. :) He is there to keep the shelf symmetrical.

[@nic8794]

Legend mate. Love listening to you on DAC and finally nice to put a face to the voice! Continue the good work.

[@zaaxi7424]

I think its amazing that a modding team can improve a game so much so that I bought the base game just to play divide and conquer, it's great to see the mod still developing

[@fraserwatson4944]

smoke me a kipper, I'll be back for breakfast!!

[@DukeofFrat]

Ha! Your comment about your Rugby look as opposed to an Edwardian aristocrat with a top hat was spot on. Indeed the voice does not match lol.

[@DukeofFrat]

I rarely say this but unlike most KZbinrs and online bloggers I believe I could get along with you well in the real world. Our views on everything from LotR, to politics, to history, etc parallel perfectly. Rock on Arachir.

[@gonzalogarcia6793]

Come on Galu, Horacio? How many years have to pass until English people stop remind us our most painful defeat on Trafalgar? Get over it please (of course I'm jocking 😂) Nice video as always and greetings from Spain

[@lordoflinks4668]

Congratulations on 20K!

[@Authoritya1]

Totally agree on favorite scene! The scene with the Rohirrim gets me every time!

[@sashasoltys5805]

what a lad!!! well done arachir

[@TheDestroyer001]

Heh you're not the only one to have banned Bigpollett from their community. Trolls will be trolls. Congratulations on 20k subs Arachir :)

[@bigpollettn2832]

sorry big D

[@bladelord6954]

Great Q&A Galu and congrats on 20,000 subscribers

[@naveensilva2312]

absolutely love your vids and extremely thankful for all the hard work you guys do!

[@henrikole]

Cheers mate! Prolly the Only fan from Norway who watch all your vids:) PS: Keep up the good work! Henrik

[@lenajonas4652]

Glorfindel is my absolute favourite character, too! I'd been sort of a Gandalf-fangirl (something to do with him saving the day almost ALL the time) ever since my father read The Hobbit to me when I was six or so. However, once I came upon Glorfindel in The Fellowship of the Ring, that was it - and that was even before I found out that the guy used to kill Balrogs for a living ;) I'm too lazy to check the facts right now, but wasn't he the only Elf (with the exception of Luthien) to be sent back to Middle-earth and given another life there? AND the Valar gave him powers almost equal to theirs... In your Gondolin-video you mentioned something akin to him being possibly the greatest of all Elves in ME, and I must say - even taking into account people like Feanor, Galadriel etc - I agree whole-heartedly! Hands down, no contest :D Thanks for making such informative videos!

[@TheLoddfafnirr]

You are a very nice guy, Galu, I wish more people on Earth were as reasonable and polite as you

[@MasterMahan-qm8hu]

Hope this channel keeps growing

[@gullinbursti]

Love the lore videos! They're great to listen to just before bed.

[@pedrocastaneda5398]

You an adorable man my dude. Love your vids mate continue with the great work.

[@aglaisurticae5010]

What's up with the unit cards in the reunited Folder in the UI Folder ? They look awesome !

[@craigmoose6762]

A fun with flags video would be absolutely delightful

[@KathyMort]

I love the instant I'll tell you in "Do you know the difference between this one and the australian flag? I'll tell you." You've got the makings of a substitute teacher.

[@mochihammer5459]

More like a professor, just maybe the most interesting professor I can ever imagine. I'm sure 20,000+ students will show up! Just make the topic LOTR.

[@sleepywater5236]

No offence I though that you would have really long hair just like your avatar lol.

[@jurekdekarski2316]

HtheFallenSon 69 What? Seriously? Why would that be an issue?

[@jurekdekarski2316]

So we have one thing in common regarding the books, we both like the movies more ;) I've read the books first (Hobbit and 2of3 of lotr) and as much as I loved the Hobbit, I was not a big fan of LoTR. The first movie was what really got me into the middle earth lore and it's by far my favorite.

[@jordanshultz6183]

It's fascinating to see what you look like lol. It is also interesting that your thoughts on the Lord of the Rings book and the lord in general line up with mine. The content that your channel puts out is good fun to watch, so please keep churning it out! Congratulations on the success of the channel also!!!

[@Matocles]

Great video! Loved how laid back it was. Keep it up! Also, please do an episode of Fun with Flags.

[@danharris8805]

fuck the atrocities, LONG LIVE THE EMPIRE!.... i'm joking of course. Nice video, congrats again on 20k

[@PP-vr1cf]

Please keep up your work... I am from Austria (again) but i really enjoy your videos. You produce just high quality content, IMHO, you should get more view (like a million times). cheers :)

[@SD-og8qd]

i like the 'where was gondor' part in the 2nd movie and yes boromir made me cry kinda.

[@Jake-kv6ru]

I love Red Dwarf! I haven't watched it in years but I used to watch it with my little brother.

[@joshuaparker5645]

can't wait for the next Q&A and keep up the great work.

[@sparty9616]

Love the channel and your content, and of course I really enjoy DaC. Its the game I play the most and always come back to. It was great getting to know one of the guys who expanded upon a fantastic mod and made it their own.

[@Lewis_Standing]

Sorry I forgot to ask you when you're proposing in time. maybe 50k subs

[@patrickrogan8100]

Listening while playing Skyrim, and then he starts talking about it.

[@generaldiaz206]

I always thought about you as a prince Imrahil looking like person but instead you show up and what I see is an handsome rugby player XD btw I always loved Tolkien and I was looking for a person like you that combined this LOTR love with other things and so here you are!! One of my favourite youtubers! :) Keep it up with the good work man I love u 👍

[@someguy969]

Maple Sapling my Lord. coming to a snifter glass near you soon!

[@nicholasloremann4741]

Congratulations!

[@anthuanalcantar3895]

Great Work!! I love all of your videos!! Greeting for France

[@chakkles4550]

The New Zealand North Island being "too tropical" killed me haha! Full disclosure I live in Australia so I suppose I hold the opposite view to you on heat. Sun, beach and humidity are my friends :)

[@SerratedJoy]

In my head you looked like this, just with glasses. This is the first guess I had about a face that was mostly right (I'll take it!) Love your channel and congratulations!

[@bigmike6977]

greetings from nz thanks for the video keep up the great work mate

[@tellmeaboutit691]

Hey man, thanks for the answer for my question as well! Keep up the work! I love the channel. Btw, you think any of your subscribers is from Japan? ;) Well, I am. がんばれ！また、日本に来たら教えて！

[@mochihammer5459]

そうですね。But then again, he says he loves Japan, so 良かったね！

[@tellmeaboutit691]

Aranwar Uirviluiron あなたも日本語話せますか？日本人ですか？

[@mochihammer5459]

日本語できます。アメリカに住んでいます。

[@uriclothbrok2682]

You do in fact look like a rugby player. I immediately thought you look like a flanker. Great video, cool to see the man in the flesh

[@johne4373]

I'm just here for the Lore.

[@Mudkip8]

Congrats on 20k 👍👍

[@JustJopero]

Your knowledge of the Australian flag pleases me.

[@hsdhsdhshdkshd]

I am sure we would all love to see you play skyrim!

[@mochihammer5459]

He did have a little Skyrim on his channel before. It's in the playlists.

[@hsdhsdhshdkshd]

And also, Fun With Flags would be awesome!!

[@rainapple3682]

My dude loves TSFH! Hell yes!

[@lordoflinks4668]

If I may be so bold as to recommend a game, I would recommend Age of Wonders III (store.steampowered.com/app/226840/) which is essentially HoMM III crossed with Total War. The specific features it expands on from HOMMIII is researching spells, army flanking and positioning, morale, population in cities, random events, among many other things. I just thought I would bring it up since you mentioned HOM III.

[@HouseOfKLUTZ]

Wow...... I didn't see that coming.

[@VM-wi9jr]

Would it be possible to get a Sticky Thread on TWC for mod suggestions? Ideally with some rules :-)

[@Coonsandwich]

I think a sins play through would be a really cool series

[@beqarazmadze7890]

lav your work way too drunk to listen what you are saying but your playthougs and your voice and ur mod is the thing that makes my day positive hello from fellow lawyer from Georgia "the country" god bless u m8

[@TheFirstFlamer]

Great Video, you would be great in a podcast!

[@axelhyltan]

i just realised we have alot in common!

[@Sharky_Splitz]

9:00 hey thats my qustion sweeet.

[@samelpaso4433]

Love listening to your lore videos, have enjoyed the gameplay campaigns, certified fan. Have you ever taken a deep look into Elder Scrolls lore? There are definitely lore similarities to the universe of LOTR.. It would be interesting to compare some of the obvious links there. I'm fairly knowledgeable about TES lore, especially from religiously playing Morrowind, reading the books, sadly indulgent wiki research, etc. So, if that's a comparison convo you'd like to explore/ need details, let me know. Btw, after reading LOTR like 10 years ago, I remember thinking Imrahil was a fucking BAMF! I'm not sure I remember this correctly, but I have this scene from the books in my head... Where Aragorn and Imrahil are like back-to-back on a hill in Pelenor Field, making a noble stand in the chaos of battle, shining in pale, scrutinizing light. Did that really happen or did I just over-imagine that scene? I lost my old books... : /

[@maciejbachut-cholewa2328]

What do the words in sindarin mean? I know "mae govannen" but the other are a mystery for me :p Also, is there a fellowship campaign in DaC?

[@ThisIsAntwon]

You look exactly how I thought you would 😉

[@davyfromthenavy4248]

Galu, is that a copy of Malice, the first book from the Faithful & the Fallen series I see on your shelf?

It is.

[@d3nv1]

You handsome bastard !

[@fangorn7759]

2 steps from hell is amazing!

[@iratepirate3896]

What do you think about potential reform to divorce law to move it away from a single ground and 5 "facts"?

[@hothoploink1509]

"We call them spanish people - because they're from spain." I laughed so hard my roommate woke up :D

[@hothoploink1509]

Your favorite book series is lost fleet?! I mean they were enjoyable but I think you need to read more ^^ - then again, tastes differ (thank god). I recently finished a series I thought was very interesting mainly because it's different - The Black Company series, which follows a mercenary unit in a weird dark fantasy world. Pretty good stuff you should try out the first one.

[@someguy969]

btw my guy the "latin" names you mentioned are not all strictly "spanish" by any means.. latin as you know is a ("dead") language and a very live and vibrant cultural group.. spanish people became mostly Latino due to colonization of the americas (putting that extremely lightly) all the the while actually being Moorish/ Adriatic then later Native American people that moved across the atlantic and or were already truly american any who. I realize im knit-picking but that correct distinction goes an incredibly long way my dude. Salute!

[@diegoserranoperez3326]

Yes, we are indeed from Spain

[@mansamusa1743]

IS THAT A NEW ZEALAND FLAG? HERESY!!!!!!!!!!

[@TheLoddfafnirr]

wow, you like Two steps from hell, that is a good choice!

[@axelhyltan]

the boromir just hit you right there.... XD

[@davidkelly1507]

Man Galu you don't look like I expected but at the same time it kinda makes sense

What did you expect? :)

[@davidkelly1507]

@ nothing crazy or bad like obviously! I think just more stereotypically pointy English features, defo not a beard for example. But galu my dude you look like you could take us in a scrum haha, even if you probably do play union down there ;) but yeah even more handsome than in my head haha jk love the content tho man!

[@liammorgan-nolan8991]

This is fantastic. also how does one, join the discord channel?

[@Tankbusta99]

Plo Narin Gray Jedi Master join the steam group - Brotherhood of the Swan, discord link is on the front page :)

[@CesarLiberatus]

Nice video, as always

[@cyrusupshaw6896]

Dude I never knew he liked pewdiepie, and he likes lotr. This guy is awesome

[@lukebrazier3845]

17:25 - Yeah, it got him there as well. Three times...

[@legobestfan123]

I do prefer qna videos without music, because different people have different tastes

[@glockoshoppo]

Legions of people have undoubtedly commented on you not looking as expected (I would concur). Very handsome though! 😇

Well thank you very much.

[@glockoshoppo]

You're quite welcome 😊
