Thank you for watching! Because we had three judges this time, the judging process worked a little differently. First, we came up with a shortlist of frontrunners. Second, both judges discussed them with me in depth. Third, judges presented their personal rankings for the competition, and lastly, all three of our rankings were averaged to come up with the final ranking you see in this video.

Honestly it speaks to how good the art design is in Souls games that it inspires so much fan-art. Fromsoft is a lot like Bethesda - great concepts and a lot of heart, but goddammit they are not that good at the "game" part of their games. But the art design and atmospheric storytelling? It's already inspired generations of artists.

[@theworstcatholic7247]

@@monsieurdorgat6864 Going to have to stop you right there. Bethesda? Definitely has major issue with the game aspect of their games. Fromsoft on the other hand has created some of the best games of two console generations, along with a gameplay style so good and popular, it created it's own subgenre. So popular, that huge titles like the new God of War took heavy inspirations from them. So Fromsoft's games do the "game" part exceedingly well on an objective level, or they wouldn't have near the amount of sway in the industry.

Her stained glass piece alone is amazing. The variety of skills, the execution of all of them, top tier. Top art. That said i think the second by Christian Reyes just fit the game perfectly. If someone told me that was the original concept art and design i would have believed it a 100 %, it's spot on.

I've been obsessed with Janes art ever since I saw her entry in the last competition, and I am so happy to see her get 1st place in this one. So extremely well deserved, even with such amazing pieces from the other artists. I actually bought Mortal Shell mostly because I learned she was involved with the project! I really hope developers reach out to her and let her amazing talents get put to good use. Man, I can't believe there are people that are so talented out there. Being a Soulsborne fan truly is a blessing with such unbelievable content creators out there. Thank you Vaati.

[@P747]

I had no idea that she was involved in Mortal Shell, but now that I read your comment it all became clear. Such an amazing artist.

[@AlejoBordon]

Vaati-san, please do a music/soundtrack contest! It would be awesome to hear and participate in such a great competition!

[@The8BitPianist]

As nice as that would be, it'd probably be more difficult to pull of, on one side to present and on the other to integrate into the lore. It would come down to "and here's some nice potential boss music", right?

[@bromora989]

For anyone who doesn’t know: The pillar was still fallen in the recent footage from the remake, and (I learnt this from others, so I don’t have source) Bluepoint supposedly confirmed they are not going to be adding cut content such as the area, but they are open to working with Fromsoft to do so. Basically: it could happen, but don’t expect it on release, and even then; don’t hold your breath.

[@pious83]

Hearsay is just that. Official word is all that matters. Considering that part of the trailer was the simply exact cutscene from the original game, but in the new engine.

[@bromora989]

pious83 it was the same scene made from scratch. They didn’t just use the old assets in a better engine

[@pious83]

@@bromora989 Exactly. It was the same scene from the original. All the same angles, shots and dialogue. It wouldn't have shown anything different even if there were differences within the two versions of the game.

[@bromora989]

pious83 no, because if they made it from scratch, then having the destroyed pillar instead intact would... y’know, make sense? In many many ways. However they instead made it as a destroyed pillar again. I think who I heard that it would not be brought back was EDIT: Vaati’s prior video, I’ll check now, if you reply I’ll just confirm whether I recalled correctly then.

[@pious83]

@@bromora989 The scene was recreated for its iconic introduction of the Maiden in Black. Just like the descent of the Fools Idol, also shown. It doesn't prove anything in itself. Except a lot of people looking at a trailer and clutching at straws.

There will most likely be no DLC for demon souls, because for that to happen, Bluepoint would need at least, inputs from Fromsoftware and as far as we know now, they have no part in the remake whatsoever

[@vm75]

We are all okay to say the number one should work for Fromsoftware The QUALITY of is work are insane !

[@Rayfireful]

It will be funny if one of the entry is indeed from the developer member of the sixth archstone that's sadly cut because not enough time back then And we're just getting spoiler without even knowing it

[@pious83]

@@centralunit100 Well no they don't, not really. The Northern Limit made by FromSoft does exist. It was simply cut. I'm sure there is enough design and concept information available for Bluepoint to connect the dots and finish it themselves.

[@MrDibara]

@@pious83 Maybe, but would they _dare_ tread in that direction? Specially since it's a place that is still unfinished down to the lore bits? Or would they take the safer route and just do what they excell at: remaking everything that a game already 100% has and add little to nothing else? I mean, if we base ourselves on the Shadow fo the Colossus Remake that they made, they added a little new gameplay feature along with a new secret area under the Shrine of Worship and a new weapon. *But did they include any of the unused Colossi or their arenas?* _No._ Even though a Colossus like Sirius would not have been hard to add, given that the area of his arena is already in the game, Bluepoint still opted to not add them. So as much as I'd love for them to try redoing Archstone 6, don't hold your breath on it, chances are basically 90% that they won't do it.

Really wish Fromsoft would dedicate resources towards cut content. I'd gladly pay again for DS1 with a good Izalith or DS2 with better world design.

[@pdrey100]

Bluepoint should have acquired at least one level designer from Demon's Souls and fix that archstone. I'll still get the remake eventually. It will be difficult to play seeing that if you blink you will miss the PS5 pre-order window.

[@Vonechua]

@@pdrey100 but it would seem to be either dlc or will not be added at all because the arch stone is still broken which is seen in the background of the second trailer.

[@pdrey100]

@@Vonechua I saw that too. Everyone was hoping for that. I mean it's not like the levels are huge, but they are packed with content. It could have been done. The ultimate trailer from Bluepoint would have ended with the main character touching a fixed archstone with a fade to black after teleporting. In the mean time I'm enjoying it on RPCS3(I own the original disc). Can't believe they still haven't fixed the few spots of missing geometry and the invisible soldier's shield, but it runs and looks great.

[@isaacsato1700]

DS2? No, DS3 is the one with the actual worst world design, like it's so linear you almost might as well play Final Fantasy 13. There's only two ways to circumvent the order of events from the game - kill Emma and the Dancer early, or do Abyss Watchers before Crystal Sage and Cathedral. Even killing Dancer early doesn't actually do anything because you're still walled out from the Archives. Compare this to DS1 where the only linear sections are the tutorial, and Sen's/Anor Londo. You can do the bosses of the other two big chunks of the game in any order you want, and there are a bunch of optional bosses that you can do at any time in almost any order. Or DS2, which has 10 bosses that you can theoretically fight first, which is the most in the series. It has 22 bosses that you can fight second, which is almost triple that of DS1. And instead of DS1's weird yellow doors that arbitrarily lock you out from the endgame areas, you can pass through the Shrine of Winter as soon as you get one million souls, which can be unlocked early if someone likes to PvP (DS2 had the best) or co-op. People give DS2 shit for being like the branches of a tree, where you had options, but once you were done you had to turn around and go back, but DS3's world design (and DS3 in general) has so many more problems that people just gloss over without even thinking.

As much as it would improve the experience to add a new archstone, truth is Bluepoint are gods at graphics and staying true to the original game, which is a blessing and a curse. Making new enemies and expanding the lore beyond the vision of the creators might be beyond their reach sadly, but we can still dream/hope for new content

[@GUIHome09]

After reaching the 3rd rank entry, it seemed impossible to top but damn, the 1st one really is incredible (especially the frustrating in-game screenshots). Do you plan to release an artbook based on the fan arts ?

[@dougsworld7533]

Wow.. I am speechless. Amazing how inspiring and creative some of these concepts and idea's are. Jaw dropping!!

[@ShiivaWilding]

I love these competitions, such incredible work and amazing imaginations at work on fictional worlds is a beautiful thing. Vaati, please never stop what you do!

[@DerpyBerb]

I feel like Jane should have sent all that to From soft with a resume.

[@asgoritolinasgoritolino7708]

I think she would need to know japanese to work with from.

[@gasparguzman5655]

Damn I love this community, if there ever were any pinacle for the soulsbonre community, this channel would be it.

[@MyFunkymonkey7]

Awesome video! I really appreciate you giving all these amazing artist a platform to share their love for these games through their talents, and for providing so much amazing content for us viewers! You’re an amazing KZbinr yet still humble. You might be my favorite content creator for having such a well rounded channel about the games I enjoy more than anything else in the medium.

[@henrymohn7571]

I absolutely love this side of your channel. Not only are we encouraged to think critically an seriously about fantasy (basically one of the coolest/nerdiest things there is) but there's also this artistic side to it. Absolutely love it- and maybe this could be a full- time feature? Like an art house channel devoted to those who simply love to create, and even outside of souls? Regardless- great stuff as always!

[@theobscured_one]

Iceey’s art looks like its straight out of mortal shell. Amazing

[@wyattreno5113]

8:30 seeing that guy would be awesome. we would actually see someone that was a soldier in Allant's army that wasn't insane, besides Old King Doran i guess.

[@wmd2556]

As usual amazing work to all the artist, and to vaati for binging these artist together and hosting these competitions.

[@markpickering9339]

I love seeing all these beautiful renditions and interpretations, please never stop these competitions!

[@DynoSkrimisher]

Jane and Vaati can make a fan made Souls Game that would probably feel like an original Souls.

[@Bobgriffon]

I see you had to make Ricardo a judge for this one, to give everyone else a chance.

[@iWillWakeYouUp]

This channel is truly incredible. Michael/Vaati is by far one of the kindest, most insightful and awesome youtubers out there. Not only does he make great content, but he engages the community, gives shoutouts and creates competitions like this to creatively and financially catapult artists. Major respect from me.

[@melodrama3652]

I hope all these artists continue making amazing stuff.

[@writerblocks9553]

I always sorta pictured the painted worlds were similar to the broken archstone

[@jacobsnyder7771]

Lost but never forgotten

[@lordglitch4266]

I got bamboozled, I forgot about this and the notification on my phone just said new content in Demon's souls

[@OHG_Fawx]

Congrats to all the artists who submitted to this competition. I am floored by the fantastic level of creativity and artistic talent on display here. Truly outstanding work, i hope these contests boost your commissions and get you noticed by studios in need of your talents.

[@Obversechaos]

This is wonderful. Thank you.

[@majeedmamah7457]

Damn Jane talk about over achievement. I'm gonna spend hours pouring over her portfolio.

[@cryog3nic_759]

Dude... I think Jane just demolished my expectations to anything Bluepoint might add.

[@tommyliddell8794]

fantastic artwork! I always enjoy your carefully curated art competitions.

[@samuelroddenberry7276]

Can we just take a moment to appreciate all the amazing work that goes into these competitions? Major props to Vaati, the judges, and all the artists who chose to sacrifice their precious time to bring us this fantastic content. Every time one of these contests drops it makes me truly proud to be part of the souls community.

All of these are so great. How are people this talented and this inspired. Soulsborne has given us so much and I'm just so happy that I was born to witness this.

[@nachodef]

What a deep and nostalgic channel this is. One of the best I ever found in KZbin.
