There was a good part!

[@insertedgynamehere___969]

*_Was_* being the operative word

[@88bsides]

I don’t think I’ll ever get tired of you guys talking about bloodborne. Just do the whole series again!

[@brnecessities3335]

I love Sin’s outrage at the idea of Lawrence killing a baby after wading through 8years of dead babies in Bloodborne lore. I think Rom must have been blocking it from her all this time. Rom’s actual death was during the recording of this video.

[@dasninjastix]

It's my sincerest hope that 20 years from now you two are still combing over Bloodborne lore.

[@88bsides]

It never gets old

[@Braindouchedotnet]

This is a great episode. You can actually hear the exact moment when Sophie's soul tries to leave her body.

[@yurinoworry]

Isn’t that every episode?!!!

[@ZeroPhoenixTheLastBladeTheory]

When Sophie laughs, I can't tell if she's enjoying herself or if it's like some stockholm syndrome coping mechanism.

[@SinclairLore]

Hi everyone! We hope you have a wonderful Friday

The queens of BB lore are back! Thoroughly enjoying the ep. Also just occurs to me regarding Alfred that it makes a lot of sense that he's new to the Church - nobody is as zealous as a new convert

[@jim_hawkins_blues]

Super fun episode! Thanks for taking the time to edit and share here! I have two things I'd like to add. 1. In Elden Ring, D is basically Alfred which helped me re contextualize the whole vileblood ordeal. There's a group of fanatics (fundamentalist, executioners) who thinks that a certain group ( vilebloods, those who live in death) is the antithesis to the order they follow and they simply have to destroy it, when in reality this is something that was at least partly born of that same order and the situation is a lot more complicated than "let's hunt the bad guys". In the end it's even the exact same scene with a blonde misogynist slaughtering a witch and achieving nothing, which I think just emphasizes how stupid fanaticism is. 2. I was told on the Bloodborne lore discord that the cut content Willem line to Lawrence in the flashback used to be "you seek now, like Gherman, to betray me" which to me indicated that it was Gherman who took the old blood to Cainhurst in an early draft of the story. This would also tie in nicely to the pre dlc doll/Maria story, assuming it was true. I mean maybe Gherman fell in love with Annalise (who used to sound like the doll) or one of her relatives there or something, I have no idea but it all fits rather nicely, right? But I have no context here, am i way off? Ultimately perhaps it wouldn't be different from the story we have in the final game as Gherman and Lawrence are "associates". So in the final game, the only possible answer to who the scholar that went to Cainhurst is Lawrence (especially because that Alfred dialogue about cainhurst plays right after we see Lawrence's memory), maybe in some earlier version it was his lackey that had been there earlier, same story.

[@chrisgonzalez6594]

Hell yeah!!!! Going to play this one while I’m on the treadmill. Thanks for making my day.

[@SinclairLore]

You got this!

[@Kouenwin]

I was there KZbin, I was there 3000 years ago, when the strength of Sophie failed because Sin read the official Bloodborne guide's info on MP.

[@SinclairLore]

Happy 5 meters to you too

[@anndedma5355]

Wooooo!!! Best way to end a day

[@lizabee484]

I love how often Sophie looks to be on the edge of laughter, it immediately makes me start giggling.

[@ParanormalTheology]

Dude this whole game is like The Book of Enoch...

[@hk1222]

Sophie trying hold back her laughter is the best. Lol

[@artvandalleigh7894]

Finding out that you two have uploaded a new Bloodborne episode will always make me smile and drop everything to watch it.

[@HoneyDoll894]

I feel like sin when I'm explaining destiny deep lore to my friends and everyone else is like "no clue what you're talking about, you're like 50 levels deep into the lore this is ridiculous" and I'm like "yeah but have you thought about the statues and how they link to the cosmic truth"

[@philipearakaki]

Cainhurst is the enemy of the proletariat, comrade hunters unite!

My favourite podcast, everyone should subscribe!

[@Astro_BS-AS]

HI! I have a question If you don't mind. It's about the certain death of the great ones children. The ones that die are the "firstborn" only? Because the "baby" of Odeon and Arianna is very well alive.... Until WE kill "it" at least.... Is that so?

[@arthurdossantos6826]

I think a lot of them die because the mother just wants to keep it inside her to protect it and it turns into a stone baby.

[@Darfail]

They still always lose them though I suppose. Maybe it's because the Moon Presence has hunters hunt them down?

[@suzumiBreizh]

Yay! Tysm for your content, and it's still so cool to see both your faces. Take care, you wonderful lore scholars! ❤

[@friendoftheoyster3906]

The stuff about what may happen in a new nightmare cycle after our journey is really interesting. Especially how the next generation will be exploring the nightmare ruins of yharnam and the hunters dream like with Loran. With the Healing church gone, and no one to distribute the blood, would the beast plague continue or would it be stopped until some future organization rediscovers blood healing?

[@SinclairLore]

I'm assuming it'd become ruins overrun with beasts, like Loran is.

[@fernandozavaletabustos205]

Thank you for talking about Bloodborne once more!

[@SinclairLore]

We're recording another one soon!

[@fernandozavaletabustos205]

Nice, I hope that in the future you get to talk about Armored Core since the new game releases tomorrow!@@SinclairLore

[@SinclairLore]

Got it pre-ordered!

[@Nihil847]

Nice vintage episode! Lol Great stuff!

[@tokilladaemon]

My sisters friend and I had the craziest moment when we both randomly mentioned this channel at the same time lol, was a major bonding moment

[@SinclairLore]

[@ParanormalTheology]

So I have a different head cannon for the "Slug Ending". In my mind, you eventually grow in power and become Cthulhu basically. Afterward, The Hunter then goes from nightmare to nightmare beating the other Great Ones, Kaiju style. The Hunter then forces the other entities to obey him and treasure/protect sentient life/humanity etc and help the universe to be better. You would break every Great One that didn't see sentient life and peace as "important", effectively becoming Godzilla to the waking world and a hero to the dream worlds.

[@AllisonByProxy]

Love THE GOOD PART

[@Reliken]

"when the great ones have kids, they die." But not always? Gehrman and his hunters kill Kos's child. We, the hunter, kill Mergo. Yes? Edit: oh you're arguing they're dead IRL (like Rom) but alive in spirit. Hm!

[@Matrim42]

Would the Hunt happen again? Because isn’t everyone in Yharnam dead or a beast by the end of the night due to the Mensis Ritual (and, y’know…us)?

[@SinclairLore]

It shouldn't really because everyone's dead, but I guess other hunters could come to the ruins of Yharnam to keep the beasts contained (basically Old Yharnam but it's the entire city).

[@agenger1ofsuperclubpenguin326]

My sister goes to Yharnam!

[@AlbertusSalvatierra]

6:58

[@TalentHouseAd]

so was Kos a full great one? If great ones cant have kids cause they are fully evolved, then was Kos just.... not done yet?

[@SinclairLore]

Kos doesn't give birth - the baby stays inside her, like Yharnam & Mergo.

[@dezopenguin9649]

You should know better by now, Sophie; you cannot _stop_ Sin, and honestly, you can't really hope to contain her! :)

[@SinclairLore]

tfw you're maliketh

[@artvandalleigh7894]

Wait, did Sin sneeze with her eyes open at 29:10?

[@SinclairLore]

She's become too powerful.

[@artvandalleigh7894]

@@SinclairLore she just casually does it too!

[@logancade342]

I'm addicted to Sophie's voice. Send help.
