Elden Ring BUT TORCH ONLY

[@ZeroLenny]

HI GUYS!! Sure hoped you liked this one!! I know a lot of people wanted to see my old style of video + robo voice return, so this is a huge homage to all of that!! I stopped doing this style because of instant and harsh copyrights. Not making any money on the videos is a bit of an L but my main concern is risks of channel strikes and takedowns. So I hope you can understand that stuff like this has to be a rare treat!! xx
