The 79 steps to enlightenment in SOTC remake was amazing. For the first few days of the games release people were scrambling to find all of the coins, which were unbelievably hard to find.

I love how someone got out of bounds to try to get to the area behind the door, but BluePoint put a giant invisible wall around it. GG BluePoint :’ )

Now we have to wonder: is there anything else hidden we haven't found yet? Guess it's time to use Photo Mode to peer out of bounds over every square inch of the game. That'll keep the fans busy, at least a little while.

[@PokePrinny]

It’s most likely the dark and light system that governs whether the door is locked or not. It does the same thing in the very first section of the game where the dragon appears(not the dragon god). If you have dories too many times, the world turns to dark blocking off some areas( like access to the dragon slaying sword or butchers cleaver) or perhaps it’s the exact opposite and you have to die a lot for it to open.

[@Tenchigumi]

Okay, despite putting a number of hours into Remake, I actually didn't know that there was omni-directional rolling because Demon's Souls original 4-way roll trained me to fear the randomness of even attempting diagonal rolls (like trying to roll diagonally towards Maneater only to roll sideways off the stage), and thus my body was conditioned to always press a cardinal direction when rolling.

in Shadow of the Colossus, you said that the door was something that players of the original game had been hunting for, something that didn't exist in the original game, but exists in the remake.

In theory, but someone is eventually going to hack their console to glitch through the door and grab the item, cheating the mystery. If that mystery happens to be a DLC key, that would be dropping the ball big time on Bluepoint's part.

Dont know if anyone has said this yet but you can get the hoplite shield even if you didn't pre-order the game. I got it from the hoplites just past the phalanx boss fight while farming them for hardstone and sharpstone shards. The shield is pretty rare, I only got 2 or 3 compared to the 30 or 40 hardstone and sharpstone shards I farmed, but it is attainable from those particular hoplites and the version they give you is upgradable as well.

Damn those critical hits are so badass. The Polearms and greatsword ones are my favorite.

Can’t wait till April when I can get a PS5 to play this.

[@basicosmopolitan]

April? I'm getting a PS5 only when they launch the PS6

Just purchased your entire collection. Can't wait to see them when they get here :)

[@Mistheart101]

Didn't Bluepoint say they didn't want to remake the broken Archstone's world because they felt that was more Fromsoft's right to do?

[@MrMetalforever5]

BUT... What if FromSoft is designing/giving recommendations for the DLC while working on Elden Ring?

[@kurdtcoben]

If that is true, my respect for Bluepoint grew even bigger just now!

[@MikeHesk742]

Yes, and I think that's fair. For a studio that isnt Fromsoft to create additional lore just wouldnt feel right, and I respect them for knowing this

[@ps3andrhcp]

@@MikeHesk742 I mean demons souls is practically abandoned by Fromsoft, unless Sony decides to fund a sequel, I wouldn't mind if Bluepoint adds the sixth world and they obviously are fans of the universe so I am more than sure they could do it.

[@davidbernardino8109]

If I remember correctly they did actually make a 6th Archstone area, but ultimately decided against including it.

[@coal2710]

I see you decided to not talk about the design changes of enemies, npcs and some areas despite putting Fat Official's original design in the thumbnail. Hope you make videos about those changes and their lore implications.

I've been looking for this video since the game released!

[@drteeth362]

Distortion2 was trying for hours to glitch his way into the area behind the door, the whole outdoor area with the item is locked behind an invisible box that he was able to walk on top of. An interesting anomaly during his attempts to access the area is that there were times when he would load in with the item there and others when it wouldn’t

[@ogpimpwildin6897]

Dude I love your souls lore videos. Thanks for always cranking out quality analysis on by far one of the coolest series of games I’ve ever experienced.

Those critical animations are gorgeous. I especially like the Mirdan Hammer. Just brutal.

I just hope when Elden Ring FINALLY releases there's an npc named Vaati the Vidya telling random stories and actually instructs the player on how to discover hidden easter eggs through his dialogue

[@valrose5262]

The items is there, u just have to stand back further in the ally, it doesn’t show up for some people because of section loading, u can tell the balcony isn’t fully loaded from how close he is, there is suppose to be a body on the bench, that’s one way u can tell he isn’t standing far enough back, the item is always there and thought to be the blue eyes knight helmet, do to all other pieces being avalible in world 1, except the helemt

Long time watcher. I can’t say how excited I am to see more videos from you again on Souls Games, and especially this one. One of my best friends got me into the Souls series with this game on PS3. I didn’t care for it too much until he died. Then I picked up Bloodborne. Then DS3. Then 1. Then Sekiro. Still never played 2, but I’m so excited to go back(forward?) and play this game again on the next gen console and beat the hell out of it for him. Keep em coming, Vaati!

[@brant_alan]

Hey Vaati I believe the item is always there but you have to be in a specific spot when you do the camera mode for it to actually load the item in. As per comments in the reddit megathread on the secret door etc.

[@aliquidcow]

For the re-recorded VOs I was really interested in two things: whether they'd bring back Peter Marinker (King Allant/Stockpile Thomas), and whether they'd bring back the VO for Freke's Apprentice (who I think is uncredited in the original and sounds like some random non-actor brought in to do placeholder dialogue). Oddly, they *did* bring back Peter Marinker (who is one of my favourite VO artists), but only for King Allant and not for Stockpile Thomas. Maybe they wanted more variety of actors this time around. However for Freke's Apprentice, Jonathan Kydd (who also does Scirvir the Wanderer) voiced him this time around.

[@JackTarboxProduction]

I fuckin' love that bluepoint likes to add little secrets like that door in their games, it gets my gamer juices flowing!

[@ColleenSupreme]

So about the Door of Enlightenment: in the SotC remake, the door was Bluepoint's nod to that wild goose chase way back in the original's hayday. So in keeping with the previous design of honoring a fruitless community effort, maybe we just keep Yurt alive this time and see what happens?

[@maxmazza2987]

SO glad he's already bringing up the new door that was recently discovered. A glitch has been discovered that lets you get around and "on top" of the area the item is in. It looks like Bluepoint has made an impenetrable invisible box around the area. That being said, I DO wonder if it's possible that the box isn't present on a day 0 version of the game with NO updates.
