i love how letmesoloher is officially part of the lore by vati

[@SavageGameHawk]

He’s in the game too as a puppet in Seluvis’s hidden room !!

[@zyloft2053]

@@SavageGameHawk Different, actual character with less importance named 'Jarwight', so he just happens to look like lmsh but is just another selivus puppet

[@TheMaeximum]

4th wall break speaking, I‘d say he is indeed part of Elden Ring‘s Story. This man was the talk of the town when almost everyone was still enjoying their very first journey in the game. He is OUR hero

[@ofnull]

he represents the indominable will of the playerbase

[@CMDRBonbon]

Almost might as well be. Maybe not literally in the lore, but FromSoftware acknowledged the dude and sent him a goddamn SWORD, lmao. Has the company ever acknowledged a player like this before in the past? (Genuine question). From what I've heard about DS2 back when it was released and getting content, there were players infamously known but only to the community and the modding one at that.

“Was it what you hoped for” “No, it was what I dreamed of”

[@trollparadox9371]

Okay but that Placidusax’s Ruin on the Elden Beast was CLEAN

[@tazka69]

Like from a real movie

[@jacksonscott3667]

It’s taken from Vaati’s vid on Shabriri, the Merchants, and the Frenzied Flame ending, which is definitely worth a watch if you haven’t seen it.

[@redrage369]

That and "forefathers one and all.. BEAR WITNESS"

@@vincentebaez2574 damn I always wanted to try these mods cause there nuts but I only play on console

[@vincentebaez2574]

That’s what I’m talking about. Glorious days.

[@Tulip_bip]

this feels like such a fake story but i have to say it. i was at the cinema a while ago and one of the trailers was for elden ring, my dad joked about how probably none of it was actual ingame footage. the whole trailer was ingame footage lmao

The chaos take the world interrupted by the backstab/death sound is fucking amazing! Great work Vati!

[@ibross100]

That "let me solo her" walk is so cool, and the fact people acknowledge him is cool aswell

[@MinersLoveGames]

After two hundred hours of searching every square inch of this beautiful game, I finally completed my first playthrough of Elden Ring. This video truly captures my feelings about this utter masterpiece. I'm already diving into another playthrough.

[@darkdinosaur3079]

Unforgettable masterpiece

[@KyrieQHD]

when I saw LetMeSoloHer fully covered in blood walking towards Malenia maaan I got goosebumps it's amazing how a real player actually became a part of the lore

[@megaawesomegamer127]

150 hours and counting, my first souls game and it’s so much fun

[@Vencarter]

same, never played one before and legit wanted a refund after 3hrs but now i had +580hrs after the 3rd month lmfao

[@landeler8888]

Godskin Apostle theme is still a fucking banger

why this gave me goose bumps like it was actually an official trailer

Because these people are professionals, And I’ve done more for the Fromsoft brand than anyone could possibly comprehend.

[@cyansorcerer6491]

Truly glorious. This is more of a trailer than anything it's so amazing.

[@gruma6581]

1 year of the golden embellished journey; 1 year of Elden Ring.

[@The_Fat_Turtle]

I managed to squeeze in 1000 hours so far. I didn't watch any of the big tv shows, documentaries and movies everybody else talked about during the year, Elden Ring took all of my free time for entertainment and I'm still loving it.

[@jackjohnson9403]

This is absolutely fantastic. I adore the shots with the katanas in front of the moon and the guy jumping off the horse at Radahn!

with almost 2000 hours played i can confidently say that this is my favorite game of all time

Even a thousand hours in, and I haven't done close to everything you can do in this game. No matter what its flaws, no matter how this formula or style of game might be built on in the future, there's _never_ going to be another Elden Ring. And, I think it's most important of all for an experience to be unique like that.
