Ludleth is specifically called 'The Exiled', so my theory is that he was a pygmy king (hence the crown he wears) but betrayed the other pygmy lords and linked the fire. Perhaps he linked the fire exactly because he was exiled and wanted to be a lord of cinder to reclaim his lost honour or even out of spite (although Ludleth seems timid and not a spiteful person). In the japanese text he specifically calls himself a pygmy. The transposing kiln in Fillianore's egg could be the connection.

Gael isn't worth a cry. He deliberately baited the player character into annihilating the painting and to travel to the bottom of everything at the ringed city, where he assimilated all of the souls of the world - win or lose he succeeded. Arguably with the help of Patches and interchangeably, Seigward.

[@agentc7020]

Business Raptor I say he is worth a cry, he isn’t doing this for himself and he’s also an incredibly old being by the time you finally beat him, if anything I would really like to know exactly what he did between the time the player wasn’t around, he hunt down almost everything that’s a fact but I want to know the magnitude of his genocide and it was all for a lady that must have died a long time ago by the time he was finished, he might have even killed her by accident.

@@BusinessRaptor520 How was seigward a part of this?

[@priece99]

I always felt like that these games created a unique feeling, something that most modern games can't even comprehend. This isn't just the good feel of beating a challenge. You don't kill bosses because they're huge enemies who drop sweet loot, you defeat them because in this unique world their fate demands them to be slain. Their death has a huge impact in the lore, in the world, and sometimes even in the game. The characters you meet feel like real persons. Even the most righteous warrior can have a deep secret, and even an outlawed murderer might have a good cause. These games draw in different people from all around the world, and yet, through this game, we form a community, which is none like the others. Many people, like you Vaati, work hard to tie the lore, the story, the game, and this community together. I believe I can thank you in the name of this community for your work, these games are nothing like most modern games, and I hope, that From Software next title will be as unique as the Souls games were, so that this community can continue to grow ever larger. And after the 1st million, I bet the next million can't be that hard, right :)

I just want to say that you revolutionized my souls experience, and gaming experience overall. You showed the story of the souls games, even if sometimes just an appealing theory, in ways I wouldn't have ever imagine. You had me replaying the game and really looking at the scenery, noticing weird statues, or reused assets, looking for connections from the vanilla game to the dlc. It was really rewarding when you mentioned something that I had noticed on my own. I never was able to connect the dots on my own, but it still validated the small accomplishment of noticing some small, slightly impactful detail. I also love every video you have put out, and especially like the songs you have featured. I just wanted to say thank you.

[@torchhead01]

(Wall of text incoming) I was pondering on the argument in dark souls on whether dragons have souls earlier. I came to the conclusion that every creature that has a "soul" (i.e. Soul of Artorias) fades away when killed, while enemies that do not have souls tied to them (including hollow soldiers, as they have gone hollow) leave their corpse behind. However, there are many creatures whom have a soul according to this conclusion that do not drop their soul when killed, such as the player themselves, all demons aside from the Demon Prince, and NPCs. My theory is that specific powerful souls, such as the Lord Souls, "own" the souls of these specific creatures. For example, all Humans will not drop their soul when killed because each Lord cursed their ancestors, and as a result all of humanity, with a brand of fire (the Darksign) according to the Ringed Knight Spear/Straight Sword. All Demons are property of the Witch of Izalith, and Hollows lost their souls long ago. However, there is one problem; Slave Knight Gael drops his soul when killed. Is this because he has most literally rejected his humanity (and as a result the Lords' grasp on his soul) by consuming the Dark Soul, or has he found a way to remove the brand of the Darksign, freeing himself from the fate that all other humans possess? While we do not know for sure, I have another theory involving Souls. Because the Lord Souls are inherited by those who have the power to wield them, and the Dark Soul being a Lord Soul, Gael made himself equal to those who branded his ancestors with the undead curse, freeing him from being confined to the bonfire to live on, but also becoming truly mortal.

[@INFA_KNIGHT]

But recently I started playing it again and it has become one of my favorite game series, because of the amount of lore I now know from watching your videos.

I admire the extreme attention to detail, but most of all, I admire the flexibility you have when comparing our theories to your own. ...In fact, I believe you may enjoy hearing & applying our interpretations of the stories more than you enjoy having a firm grip on the actual stories themselves.

I have to say, I started watching you after I finished DS3 and your channel pushed me past just enjoying the game, but enjoying the lore, and lemme tell you, I'm so glad that I randomly came across your channel after looking up the story of Anri and Horace. Happy 1mil subs my dude

[@eclipse_7376]

Vaati you're amazing! I found your channel after your first prepare to cry vid and I instantly subbed because of your voice and enthusiasm for the souls series!

[@angusmac1056]

Vaati deserves 50,000,000 subs

[@yesok4244]

no

[@centralunit100]

LIGHT x45 more than pewdiepie for sure, but not that many people are interested in the soul franchise sadly

[@sirmaxeer6909]

If all pewdiepie's subscribers were interested in the souls franchise, the souls franchise will be absolutely ruined.

[@aglorklmeel9425]

not really

[@AdamDoge]

still waiting for the Edwad lore vid

[@marktapia9836]

areyoufeelingitnowmistercrabs i

[@kellythomas9069]

seriously though

[@WhoopBoi1240]

"Well, there's nothing in dark souls 3 that defines them" Except the huge dragon men in farron

[@bunguscrumch3320]

I graduated from high school the year that this video was dropped. I still watch your old DS videos Vaati, nobody catches the poeticism of souls games quite like you man. Thanks for the great content, and can't wait for more Elden Ring vids to come out (hopefully I'll have a PS5 by then lol)

[@jonroffe7178]

Coming late to this thread, but I wanted to add that your humility with respect to other people working on the lore of the games, and your willingness to give them a shout out, this makes me favour your work all the more - this on top of your meticulousness and passion for the games.

[@jeremey4321]

i hate to be that guy but im super proud to have been following you when you had 5k subs KEEP UP THE AWESOME WORK U LEGEND

[@fireemblemistrash75]

Jeremey Manuelpillai Same here

[@gageyacano6905]

the sculls are also with the poison swamp monster the very big ones

[@un-capital3666]

Maybe they're carrying a chunk of the greatwood, which is stuffed with curse.

[@Romb772]

toasteater337 R Never thought about why they could do that

[@CaveCanaglia]

Fromsoft: *forgets to add shadows and reflections to hollow character VaatiVidya: so basically, losing your soul woul make a hollow more ethereal, because the impenetrable flame of humanity is said to be a weighty phisical force. I love you!

[@MrPF]

Shading is not tied to the character That's either a really weird and specific bug that comes from a random piece of code or is actually meant to be like this

[@gamongames]

Renderers are usually set to cast shadows by default on lit mode of lighting engines and are independent of model. Same for reflections. Swapping the character model wouldn't have any effect on it. technically. It must be a intentional decision.

[@herrschneider5310]

I can honestly say that your Lore Videos have greatly improved and enriched my gaming experience. Really appreciate the crazy effort you put into this channel, keep up the good work!

[@IAmKnightsDawn]

I recently (last night) hit 888 on twitch. It wasn't a milestone but it did shock me to see how many people have come to see me and thought, this is a decent person. I would watch what they do. Congrats on 1mill. It's been fantastic watching all of your dark souls videos throughout the years. I do hope to see new games and continue to support you throughout the future.

[@piperwalton]

Regarding the red skulls from Gael and the Executioner's Gloves, could there be a link between those and the red homing skulls summoned by the Elder Ghru? EDIT - And now that DS3 DLC is over and you've pretty much covered it all, have you considered going back and doing some more Bloodborne videos? I think a lot of people would really like to hear more of your thoughts on that and there were a number of characters you never really covered.

[@HalfGroxus]

If i recall correctly, that missing shadow thing was in DSII aswell. Not sure about DSI though.

[@KishibeRohan]

So Hollows = Vampires?

[@BruttiF27]

Kishibe Rohan KONO DIO DA

[@JDyo001]

well vampires= undead, hollows= basically undead

[@hattheduck2359]

You think chosen undead will link the fire, BUT IT WAS I, DIO

[@shmekelfreckles8157]

JD! yo all human npcs in souls series are undead, if I recall correctly.

[@DinzoArchonic]

That's the idea. Vampires suck blood. Hollows suck souls.

[@andrewb494]

congrats on one million, and the way you talk shows how passionate you are about what you do. big respect!

[@itsnotlikeilikeyouoranythi4799]

Man, it feels like just yesterday when I beat Dark Souls 1 and didn't understand anything about the story or anything that I just saw. Until I saw your Dark souls 1 Prepare to Cry videos and such. That was way back before Dark Souls 2 came out! I also remember eagerly watching your Dark souls 2 demo videos when they came out, where you theorycrafted about the mechanics and stuff based of screenshots of new UI elements and stuff lol. You are, and have always been, fantastic! It's been a journey for sure!

[@shayarmuneer376]

Now that the souls games are done, what's next vaati?

[@diamondmetal3062]

Shayar Muneer Well, From has mentioned that they're working on a new project at E3. It's probably not gonna be out for a while, though.

[@rebelpoxy]

Nioh would be nice.

[@bobiharto92]

rebelpoxy not much lore to learn. the game already explained pretty much of it. hoping for bloodborne 2

[@nomercy8989]

Nothing just living of free patreon money by the looks of it.

[@conorkiddell9245]

Shayar Muneer bloodborne 2

[@ryu.hayebusa]

Shout out to my boy Distortion2

[@jmas081391]

FromSoftware should hire you as a narrator or something!

[@pwnwin]

Shrine Storyteller. I approve of this.

[@pwnwin]

You... made me take interest in Dark Souls, introduced me to this amazing game and community, and for that I can't thank you enough. If you ever happen upon this comment, I want to remind you that the content you made, years prior, still reaches us individuals, thankyou.

[@TheTwit1995]

When I first ran into your videos i was captivated by you, and the way you share information. I've seen you grow and become humbled by the attention you receive, I only wish to be one of the stories of a person who got lost in the universe of Souls because of you and how you described and showed me how enjoyable it really could be if I just tried it. Anyway thank you very much from England
