I’d love to see you guys react to Let me solo her. He’s a legend in the community who has beaten Malenia thousands of times wearing only a pot on his head and equipping dual katanas. FromSoftware actually took notice of his achievements and sent him a gift!! He’s an absolute beast who deserves the support!!

[@reggielacey2235]

No

[@rileythatcher1956]

Yes

[@villy.4769]

I 2nd this

[@izayayozora]

I agree he is a legend of elden ring

[@revivalofnutrient]

Ehhh they should do the real lore first then start with the fan fiction lore lol

[@anthonysmith6413]

The Pot on the head while being naked is a homage to a player named "let me solo her" who helped players to defeat Elden Rings hardest Boss. Let me solo her's character was always naked with a pot on his head.

[@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames]

😎👍🙂

[@NocnaGlizda]

Remember that his image already existed in the game before this player appeared. This is one of the puppets in the hidden room of this buffoonish wizard.

[@logeyperogi1805]

Let Me Solo Her, a man I wish I could’ve met on my first playthrough Unfortunately he is on PC, and I am on PS4, though we are never destined to meet, I wish him the best, he is a true hero, deserving of his legendary status

[@himynameismike]

@@NocnaGlizda The differential is the dual wielding katanas, one being Rivers of Blood and the other a Cold Uchigatana.

[@DreamLabyrinth]

I never had trouble with malenia since I was basically overleveled when I finally found and fought her 😆 oh but when I tried after knowing about it on a new run 😓 definitely skilled if you can do it with just a pot.

[@Frostbite08]

Bethany would love General Radahn. He's had that horse (whose name is Leonard) since he was a child. When Radahn grew so large that he couldn't safely ride Leonard anymore, he went to a magic academy to learn gravity magic so he could safely ride him again.

[@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames]

☺️ You know me well 🥰🤗

[@logeyperogi1805]

Also, during his battle, Radahn will perform various attacks where he leaps high into the air and slams down (the most famous of which is his opening for his second phase) and whenever he does these attacks, he pushes Leonard underground so as to not hurt the little horse

[@dadab22]

Incredibly, the little jar is destined for greatness as a warrior. Warrior Jars gain strength from their innards, to become a better, stronger warrior. Alexander had the remains of champions of the shattering, even including a lock of Radahn's hair. Which means that the little jar child is going to have the power of Alexander, champions of the shattering, Diallos, and even a portion of *the strongest demigod warrior*.

[@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames]

😯😀

[@logeyperogi1805]

THE NEXT IRON FIST ALEXANDER?! Alexander was my absolute favourite character in Elden Ring, had he made it to the endgame, I would’ve made sure to have him be general of my army

[@itsgodesu3384]

If you guys liked this, I highly recommend another video from Vaati "An elden ring story: The lord of frenzied flame"

[@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames]

😎👍😀

[@sirchonk310]

Took the words out of my mouth, i highly recommend that one too!!

[@jorgetheprince8316]

Same yall will enjoy it

[@olof.lindstrom6216]

That is a good video,

[@Lark_man]

Yeah, my favorite prepare to cry for sure

[@minecraftender8105]

Glad you guys really enjoyed this video. I would like to recommend another prepare to cry video that strays really far from heroism to brutal tragedy: Prepare to cry The Lord of Frenzied flame. Can't wait for the next video!

[@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames]

Thanks for the recommendation 😀

[@repodan12]

Yeah, that story is a complete tragedy, very sad tbh.

[@alderondave]

That was an amazing video, Vaati is an amazing creator and storyteller. Your thoughts and reactions were really great to hear too. I shed a tear for Dealos and Alexander

[@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames]

Vaati really does a great job with the lore in these games 🤩

[@SilverCrow0101]

it's actually sweet of Radahn. he couldn't fathom leaving his horse behind as he grew bigger from power, so he learned gravity magic to keep his beloved horse around

[@Crispifordthe3rd515]

I did most of the npc quests on my first playthrough, and Alexander's was probably one of the saddest. As almost all of them end in some form of tragedy. I was forced to kill my favorite character, my buddy 😭

[@randallchumil1968]

They need know Let Me Solo Her, is one of the most interest histories en the fandom, how a player transform in a Leyend, hated and loved in the same weight.

[@Le_Canker]

Another video from vaati about Elden ring i recomend is "The Blessing of Despair". The cinematic work is top notch and it is far darker than al lot of the other lore videos, and it explains one of the more prominent things in the game, that being the Omen curse.

[@Karlken0209]

Finally someone react to this masterpiece. The "An Elden Ring Story" series is not like anything I've seen, the cinematic level is insane and Vaati is a born storyteller. Love your reaction, please keep react for other episode in this series.

[@kei6121]

Vaati's video are always excellent, the story telling, the shots, the lines, would definitely like seeing more

[@lodn113]

Would love to see you guys react to more of Vaati's stuff a touch more frequently but still very fun to watch. Excited for when you touch on the Lord of Frenzy video ^^

[@HonestOpinions4u]

I'm excited for that video for sure

[@hemagionaltovao5291]

Definitely hope you guys do a little dip into the story of 'Let Me Solo Her'. The pure epitome of practice makes perfect, and that his legend is already writ in song... worth the watch.

[@knightghaleon]

I'm not crying, you're crying! Vaati has an amazing talent for putting these stories together.

[@soulscure7595]

it is more impressive of someone who is scared more than anyone being able to overcome the most scary endeavor. The amount of courage to tip the scales of the ability to do would be a greater amount of someone who isnt scared. And it really makes a great story to make you feel connected to the mortality of it and fromsoft can form any type of story to be beautiful works of art and storytelling

[@Gensolink]

Bravery is acting in spite of fear. I always love stories that acknowledge that

[@BDA4144]

Pls do the story of the frenzied flame after this!

[@Daimkryss]

Can't wait for you to see the two other masterpieces from Vaatividya, "Lord of Frenzied Flame" and "The Blessing of Despair". I must have seen (and listened before falling asleep) to those more than 50 times. Love to watch your reactions since you take the time to actually watch and then share your thoughts

[@darrylferguson3622]

What a beautiful story. Vaati is an amazing storyteller, and i can admit that i wasn't prepared despite the title's warning...

[@toms1313]

I never am

[@jakewu8268]

Yes! More Elden Ring reactions please ! 😄

[@Knightlight-kw9sh]

Vatti did a great job with the presentation of this video. I love how cinematic it is

[@promero14]

ER is such a beautiful game...

[@moviebad109]

It’s really funny and ironic that you said “Cersei and the Mountain” during Tanith’s introduction. Funnily enough, Tanith is voiced by Gemma Whelan. You might know her as Yara Greyjoy in a little show called Game of Thrones.

[@ward1ism]

My first time completing Alexander's quest, I had a tear running down my cheek. Never really felt for a character quite like him before, and the way his story ends just so bitter sweet 😅 definitely my favourite NPC in elden ring.

[@greatgatorgaming6024]

It’s a shame very few of the allies you make in elden ring get happy endings but it does make for good story telling. Also I have to give major props to the creator of this video, a lot of the scenes with diallos like him kneeling to tanith and fighting the poacher aren’t actually scenes in the game but the creator dressing up as diallos and fighting his friend dressed as the poacher. I will say I’m guilty of killing Juno Hoslow for volcano manor because I just couldn’t help myself from getting that dope armor and whip. I highly recommend you guys check out Ranni’s story. She probably has the most fleshed out story of all the characters with a long questline of errands you run for her that unlock a large amount of the map you can’t otherwise access. She also has a whole ending to herself to top it off.

[@toms1313]

Vaati and the other person recording have been doing this for years and when elden ring dropped i feel like they just dropped masterpieces

[@Eogard]

And this is one of the many reasons why Elden Ring was the Game of the Year 2022. So many great stories and characters that intertwine and make the world believable.

[@itsCaptainEli]

When it comes to the Recusants and the grace of the erdtree... it isn't quite so black and white as evil and good.

[@moviebad109]

Ya, I think those 2 factions in particular illustrate better than any that there is no real “lesser evil” between those two. They’re both tinges of light and dark. They both have committed hideous, unspeakable acts, yet both also strive to build a better world, believing the ends justify the means. They’re all grey.

[@lightzpy8049]

The Elden Ring Prepare to cry series is really great honestly, he keeps getting better with his story telling

[@lizaliza8367]

I honestly cried. like full stop ugly sobbing. and your commentary made it better

[@devondavis5119]

Loving these elden ring moments

[@alejandrobrenes6101]

Love your Elden Ring videos, this is just a fragment of the amazing dialogues and stories that this masterpiece of a game has.

[@ShadowProject01]

A side not on Diallos’ brother. His name is Juno, and depending on you alignment when you do the Volcano Manor, Tannith will send you to kill him.

[@FromTheGrave47]

I didn't realize that Alexander and Dialos are reflections of each other, one has powerful armor but is a coward. And the other has weak armor but is brave, and both are capable of greatness.

[@SioxGreyWolf]

And the remains of both end in a singular Jar.

[@alphashocker7458]

Yes! Finally! Please do the other two Elden Ring Stories that Vaatividya did as well!

[@_inSight__]

I love you two. Not in a complicated way, just happy you exist.

[@jjcc3017]

Very good insights about the story, I love it.

[@rhynlock11]

Just a little note that Radahn studied the art of gravity magic in order to make himself very light to be able to keep riding his very scrawny horse named Leonard

[@El_oso_demente]

Cute little fact. Radahn actually learned gravity magic just so he could stay riding his beloved horse.

[@11Megane23]

Courage and bravery truly are different things. I'd rather be courageous than brave because bravery borders between having no fear, or sheer stupidity. Nature gave us fear. Natural selection hardened it. Survival hinges on fear, imo.

[@Nightreaper86]

im surprised u guys havnt looked at the new warhammer immortal empires vid

[@azizella2778]

I highly recommend you also watch another elden ring video from Vaati called "The Blessing of Despair" which arguably has the highest production quality he has ever made

[@Moredistress]

If you enjoyed this video from Vaati, you should definitely watch it’s sequel video “An Elden Ring Story: The Warrior Within Epilogue” by Mispap1.

[@bendysbrother7447]

Every prepare to cry for elden ring is amazing, you'll think they are awesome.

[@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames]

😎👍🙂

[@Voldafart]

That, “IN BLOOD!!” Gets me every time.

[@andrewler13theundeadwarrio51]

Thats why I kill those jar hunters while I'm at that town, I use my madness and burn their eyes out, I use many abilities that kill them, this includes mods too.

[@bosskren9893]

you should look into the chaos lore that this guy made, i have seen multiple times and it still gives me chills

[@arcadius2569]

I'm so glad you two put up content in the internet. Life is complicated and beautiful. Thank you!

[@LordHypertronUniversum]

14:02 - The Man, The Myth, The Legend, Let-Me-Solo-Her!

[@Lyko5]

14:07 Wretched naked, weilding Rivers of Blood and Moonveil, Jar in it's head... you must be LetMeSoloHer But seriously, Fromsoft should make him a character in the game at this point, the guy deserves it 21:58 seriously? the Aeonian Flower? lol

[@darkchiron]

The source of the jar people is further explained now that the DLC is released. It is a further tragic story of how they got all those people put inside them.

[@8486odin]

Frenzied flame is the one you should watch. It's a master piece

[@subject_of_ymir]

" The tale of house Hoslow is told in blood "

[@edword602]

Can't wait until you two make a video on his "slumbering demigod" video. Keep up the good work 👍

[@aengusog3415]

14:36 ironically the actress who voices Tanith played Yara Greyjoy in game of thrones

[@spiraljumper74]

BABE, new Elden Ring lore reaction just dropped. Vaati’s video on the Frenzied Flame is a really good self-contained Elden Ring story too, it’s called “The Blessing of Despair.” It’s awesome.

[@Thecarianknight]

If you want more elden ring lore I would recommend the video on Cosmic Sorceres ( It's by the same guy). Have a nice day 😊

[@AlexGordonMusic]

Funny that Bethany said Lady Tanith reminded her of Cersei Lannister ….the voice actress is the chick who played Yara, actually lol I was so surprised. Seems GRRM must’ve gotten her the gig.

[@RoxxSerm]

So yeah, thats "only" a sidequest. Elden Ring is a masterpiece.

[@Leon-yg5gm]

this story legit made me sad playing through the game. dude's tragic but brave.

[@FantasiA2K]

And some people have the nerve to say elden ring has no story. This video is based on just ONE of the dozens of quest lines in the game.

[@ggrimmfield5529]

Dude I'm held my tears like fvckin hard

[@sultahid6205]

You have to react to the Lord of Frenzied Flame episode of Prepare to Cry!

[@Sherudons]

Think one of his latest ones the lord of the frenzied flame is his best one of elden ring yet, a lot less disjointed too.

[@lolHyperactive]

man vaati's really do great videos >.

[@esmith2k2]

Honestly Just go through all of Vaati's Elden Ring videos

[@Descendant404]

that was so beautiful thx @definitely not definitive 🌹

[@GirlofCulture]

There are so many best girls in this or that game.. but do you know what? Alex is best boy in this story. The Don Quixote of Elden Ring.

[@Randomguy-tk2vq]

Yeah the warrior within is awesome but i cant get the frenzied flame out of my head, its just to good

[@DumbassJudgeman]

Absolutely do Prepare To Cry: Dark Souls edition.

[@renixmar3373]

This is the best prepare to cry vid in Elden ring tho

[@shanedillis153]

Y’all should check out tarnished archeologist. They go super in depth on the lore and real world inspiration for the lore

[@AriSellassie]

Oh yes! I need more prepare to cry story reactions

[@psychoottsel4291]

You guys should watch the story of let me solo her

[@artylars6207]

The Frenzied Flame story by VaatiVidya is probably his best to date. Highly recommend

[@YoKaiSorrows01]

This was really bueatiful

[@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames]

Agreed 😊

[@kokukun6907]

radan boss fight ah such a epic opening *sees let me solo her* well que the song

[@seraphinaaizen6278]

Wow, I actually DID cry.

[@AvatarOA]

whenever you get to returnal please react to the following trailers: Returnal - Announcement Trailer | PS5 Returnal - The Tide (Launch Trailer) | PS5 Returnal - Ascension State of Play March 2022 Trailer | PS5

[@The63stToast]

You've got to watch "An Elden Ring Story The Lord of Frenzied Flame" by VaatiVidya!

[@jonatanNV7018]

If you want to react to more video game stories, I would recommend that you watch the chapters of halo legends, it is a set of anime-type miniseries that tell different stories from the world of halo, although some are not considered canonical, but without a doubt it has different tones, such as serious suspense, sadness, comedy and among others that I think you may like a lot

[@Metalton95]

This reminds me.. when are you going to get mind blown by Max0r’s Elden Ring videos? 😃

[@phlegethon666]

i know it's the wrong video to ask on, but will u b reacting to the merkins parody cover of kiss' "i was made for loving you"?

[@c0mmas]

more vids from vaati please!

[@DaddyCloyster]

Please also check out prepare to cry: Lord of frenzy Flame

[@aplis.]

lol your “cool” when the swords came out

[@PhilipJFry-h8v]

great reaction as always

[@malachius_the_ii85]

Definitely need to check out the “Armored Core VI: Fires Of Rubicon” trailer, it’s being made by fromsoft same maker as this and you’ll two definitely will enjoy it 👌

[@MaidenlessScrub]

And some people said that Elden Ring has no story lmao. Can't be further from the truth

[@epoh_7979]

U should watch the story of radahn, he makes u feel like you are the side character after all

[@despair_ts1823]

Omg i almost cried at the end of the story! But i didnt! Ima warrior too 🥺

[@johanstenfelt1206]

Huh, what a well done video.

[@PenetentOne]

Do knight Artorias next!

[@drom5970]

Have you reacted to the story of "let me solo her"?

[@someordinaryperson6222]

❤️

[@disappointingdr9715]

A good dark series to check out is hollow knight

[@MrChariotman]

You should check djpeachcobbler's video on dark souls 3 and the bosses. Best interpretation of the story and honest the most entertaining video i've seen about dark souls in a while

[@Certerrus]

YEAHHHHHH

[@Bertus261]

Can you say cheers in Danish next celebration

[@theloyalrunt.]

Still flame slinger just new name and pfp
