DLC LORE THEORIES | Watching Elden Ring's new Story Trailer is hiding something by VaatiVidya

[@Shad0wmoses]

i have to emphasize that i really appreciate that you pause the trailer. Mainly because it shows you actually genuinely care about what u are reacting to lol. I see so many big streamers just “react” then theyll look at chat and talk about random shit missing half the video. they just use reaction to vids as a filler so they can get the views and all that bs.

Thank you sm! It’s felt a bit frustrating that people keep saying I either pause the video too much or I’m constantly talking over it, feels like there’s no right way to do it sometimes

@@beckachuu as long as ur watching something u actually want to im down with whatever. i just see people like xqc or emiru fake react to stuff. then u have people like u or Asmon, whos engaged with it actually discussing the thing they are watching.

14:11 There is a really interesting video called "Deciphering the story trailer | Elden ring shadow of the Erdtree lore" by "GamePlus | The alchemist" which points out a lot of similarities between this and "Berserk", the manga where Fromsoftware gets a lot of their inspiration for their games from. Vaati also references "Berserk" here at 28:19 ("Band of the Hawk"). Therefore I can really recommend checking that video out, too. I think it's pretty good and made a lot of sense to me.

Hey I checked out that channel and I might wanna watch it. Do you think I’m gonna understand it with zero berserk knowledge whatsoever?

[@firecat4529]

@@beckachuu I myself don't know much about Berserk either and I think he explained it well enough for me to understand what was going on, so I say go for it.

I just keep thikning to my self regarding Miquela "Please don't be a Griffith!" (If you know, you know). It does seem so far the Marika is that kind of character, but because he is her son, then he might be just as...goal oriented, let's say. Returning to the Griffith comparison, he even has a group of devoted followers, led by a woman dedicated to him, and he was violated by Mogh. So, I am worried. EDIT: Did not fully realise that Vaati himself makes the comparison. Dear lord.

I’m from the future, he is definitely a Griffith

@@andrewlynch4126 Yup! Already know. Thank you.

Best theory i saw was that the body is actually gloam eyed queen but it's actually a snake and the seduction and betrayal is radagon, seducing her and everything; but also the fact that messmer has snakes might mean he is born of radagon and gloam eyed queen. It's my personal favorite theory but what do you think?

[@beckachuu]

Radagon needs to stop cheating on his women wth

@@beckachuu fr he ain't no champion he's a dirty trickster

[@alphawolf7417]

​@@CinaGD Honestly, that makes a lot of sense. Messmer is all blasphemy, yet we see no trace of Godskin among his design. Odd, considering Godskin's are about as Anti-Golden Order as you can get. What makes the theory even scarier is that it would mean Messmer is the child of 2 Empyreans.

@@alphawolf7417 well the resemblance of his face and the godskin apostles is kinda uncanny but yeah it is pretty scary
