AISubs v3.7
Hello, everybody, and welcome to SideQuest
and what may very well be the conclusion of our Dark Souls journey
I have a suspicion that this is going to be the finale of our SideQuest run of Dark Souls
and that is pretty exciting for me
It's been a long time that we've been playing this
Before I go off and do anything, actually,
let's just kind of reflect on everything that we have done to get ourselves here
We escaped the Undead Asylum,
got ourselves out here to "the land of ancient lords," I think is its title? Lordran?
We fought and scrapped our way past a dragon and a demon and countless undead
to ring the first bell of awakening up in the cathedral
Then we scrapped our way downward past a capra demon,
which I beat on the first try, I will remind you,
and through the depths and through the horrors of Blighttown,
all the way down past Quelaag to ring the second bell of awakening,
awakening the giants and opening the doors of Sen's fortress,
and thus opening up the way to Anor Londo, the realm of the gods
We fought our way through Anor Londo, past tons of enemies,
some really surprisingly skillful silver knights, some obnoxious archers,
an incredibly capable duo,
made friends with a princess, sort of, not really, but kind of,
also made friends with a weird snake-friend-thing-who- calls-himself-the-king-seeker,
we acquired the lord vessel from the princess and then went on a journey
to gather various powerful souls to fill that lord vessel
from four key bosses, if my memory serves me correctly
First we went down...
Into the catacombs and into the horrible, horrible tomb of giants to acquire Gravelord Nito's soul
Second, after some fiddling about with various side tasks and a brief excursion into a painting world
We made our way back to Anor Londo
Then had another diversion where we accidentally picked a fight with the last remaining god there, it turns out
Uh, killed that god
Then later, skipping ahead, we also destroyed the illusion that that last remaining god had created
And thus kind of broke the overall illusion that was making Anor Londo actually look all lit and sunny and pretty and nice
To reveal what the place truly is
Which is, I guess, ultimately kind of the same but less sunny
Anyway, then we went up from Anor Londo to the archives of an old dragon scientist
Then we got thrown in jail
But then, defeated the dragon scientist, got that soul too
Then we ventured down into New Londo, dealt with a lot of ghosts
And then plunged into the abyss to fight the four "kings" I think is what they're called?
Whatever they were, we got a soul from 'em
And then we went even further down into the old demon ruins
Into Lost Izalith, I believe it's called
Fought something I don't remember the name of, got the last soul
And now we're back here
Ready to put those souls in the Lord Vessel
And do something I don't remember the specifics of
We'll have to ask our king-seeking snake friend
Frampt, I think is his name
We'll ask him about it
That's quite a journey, and it's been a really fun one
Like...
Looking back to probably over a year ago, geez
Whenever we first started doing this series, whenever James and I did
I...
...had only kind of dabbled in these games before and hadn't really developed an appreciation for them.
I was intimidated by them, I got frustrated by them easily, and I didn't really feel like making time to get better at them.
I started the series out wanting to get what it was that everyone really loved about this series so that I could love it too, and now by the end of this, I 100% have achieved that goal.
I totally get why people like this series, and I cannot wait to get into it further.
This has been awesome, and I really appreciate that you folks have been watching this entire time and have kind of been going on this little journey with me.
Anyway, before we go heading down toward the Lord Vessel...
...let's handle a couple last lingering things.
Let's go ahead and use this last Firekeeper's Soul to reinforce our Estus Flasks one last time.
I... left it in the bottomless box, let me go... get that real quick.
[fireworks popping]
Okay, got it, got it, sorry about that.
Got the Firekeeper's Soul, ready to go, here we go.
Reinforce.
Yes, please.
Thank you very much.
Are you sure you don't want to say anything before we wrap this up?
Maybe.
I wish not to speak.
You could have started with that, but okay.
Is there anyone else around here that we should talk with? Anyone else left alive?
Big-hatted sorcerer friend...
...presumably died in prison...
...is a--oh, it's a princess's back, hello!
Uh...
How'd it go?
Oh, hello. Why, of course I don't mind teaching you sorceries...
But now that you've located Master Logan, I can't imagine that I can be of much help.
Oh. Oh, so he knows we found Logan's position, but he... I guess he knows or also presumes that Logan is dead.
Well, that's a downer.
Anything, really, that I should purchase from him? I don't think so. I think it is all sorcery-related. Yeah.
Well, thanks anyway.
Uh, pyromancy friend! Ah, you're here! Excellent! In fact, I may be able to buy one or two last upgrades from you.
Sure. Oh, oh, this... I must... These must be the, uh, pyromancies I acquired in the distant past.
"Her"?
Does he mean Dusk? Princess of Dusk? Princess Dusk? What is her official name? Is it just Dusk? I don't know.
Anyway... I could purchase combustion or any one of these others. I mean, combustion's cheap. I might as well.
What do these do?
"Pyromancy of Carmina, who harnessed the power of flame to actualize the inner self. Intense sweating reduces flame damage." Oh, I see.
Carmina, the most accomplished pupil of Salomon, the master pyromancer, pioneered new directions for the art of pyromancy.
Iron Flesh. "Iron Flesh boosts defense and resilience. Use of this pyromancy requires caution as the caster becomes exceedingly heavy and unable to move freely." Interesting.
I don't think I will purchase either of those, but I will purchase some upgrades!
Yeah, so we can get this bumped up at least one more time.
Very good.
You know what? I've actually got some souls I can use to maybe get one more upgrade from you.
Goodbye then. Come back if you find anything new.
So those are once over.
I wonder what "god of the dark sun" means.
"Who dreaded the spread of the abyss." Hmm.
The guardian exhibited traits of several animals other than lions, suggesting that it was no ordinary beast but rather closer to the beings known as demons.
Interesting.
Soul of Manus, father of the abyss.
This extraordinary soul is a viscous, lukewarm lump of gentle humanity.
Ancient Manus was clearly once human, but he became the father of the abyss after his humanity went wild, eternally seeking his precious broken pendant.
Ooh, so I've read the humanity description before, but it just occurred to me and I don't know why I didn't think about this earlier.
If you just add a couple of little white eyes to the humanity art down there, it would basically look like all of those ghosts that I was fighting down in the abyss.
Which seems to suggest to me that these rare, tiny black sprites found on corpses, as the description says, are basically the same thing as the much larger ones I found down there.
And I don't really know what that connection suggests, other than that those ghosts down there are also humanity in some form, but uh...
I don't know, that's really interesting. I was happy with myself the instant that clicked in my head.
Demon Titanite.
Stolen from a faceless stone beast known as a Titanite Demon.
"When the nameless blacksmith deity passed" - who I'm still not sure who that is -
from several slabs, great beasts arose, and the power of Titanite remains within them, and they still roam Lordran today.
So that's what all the Titanite Demons are, is just...
several legendary slabs, from which sprang beasts.
Darksilver Tracer.
A darksilver dagger used by the Lord's Blade Curon of Gwyn's Four Knights.
Hmm. Ciaran, maybe. I'm not sure how to pronounce the name.
The victim is first distracted by dazzling streaks of the gold tracer,
then stung by the vicious poison of this dagger.
So... maybe... then...
the person I met back in that arena in the DLC area...
Uh... Oolacile...
Maybe that was Ciaran?
Ciaran?
Let's see what the gold tracer says.
Gold Tracer.
"Curved sword used by the Lord's Blade Ciaran" - Ciaran, whatever -
one of the Lord Gwyn's Four Knights.
So, that must be Ciaran. Ciaran.
I need to pick one and go with it.
She brandishes her sword in a mesmerizing dance,
etching the darkness with dire streaks of gold.
That paints an awesome picture.
Sunlight Straight Sword.
This standard-long sword, belonging to Solaire of Astora,
is of high quality,
is well-forged,
and has been kept in good repair.
Easy to use and dependable,
but unlikely to live up to its grandiose name.
Hmph.
I suspect that might be a sentence which describes both the sword and its owner.
Quilogue's Fury Sword.
A curved sword born from the soul of Quilogue,
daughter of the Witch of Izalith
Oh, cool.
who was transformed into a chaos demon.
Like Quilogue's body,
the sword features shells,
spikes,
and a coating of chaos fire.
Power affected by wielder's humanity.
Ooh, somebody in the comments was saying something about that, where, like...
the amount of humanity I have increases its damage output.
So if my humanity number is not very high, then it's not all that strong a weapon.
Which is interest-- which is cool!
"uchi katana," "katana forged in an eastern land,"
known for its brisk, slashing motions.
The uchi katana cuts beautifully and causes bleeding,
but its blade is easily nicked.
"iaito," "katana forged in an eastern land,"
the katana is drawn from the scabbard at lightning speed,
using an iaijutsu technique.
Iaijutsu allows the wielder to charge forward to swiftly cut down distant foes.
That explains why someone was saying that the running attack is the best...
"attack" that iaito has in its little moveset.
"demon spear," "carved from the bones of fellow demons,"
wielded by the slim, lesser batwing demons.
The weapon of these chaos demons wandering on orlando
are different from those of other chaos demons
and are imbued with lightning.
demon's catalyst,
demon catalyst formed from izalith molten rock
can be used as a fire weapon.
The demon fire sage was the first demon
and the last master of the original fire arts
before the witch of izalith was engulfed by chaos,
creating pyromancy.
There is a lot to break down in that.
So that demon fire sage I fought down before the centipede monster
was the first demon,
the last master of the original fire arts
before the witch of izalith was engulfed by chaos, creating pyromancy.
So the witch of izalith being engulfed by chaos
meant that suddenly way more people could use the fire arts.
Oh, there's a lot to unpack there.
Izalith Catalyst.
Catalyst of the witch of izalith of long ago,
when her daughters were still flame witches,
before they were engulfed by the chaos flame.
Before the birth of pyromancy,
their wands were mediums for sorcery,
but knowledge of this flame sorcery
has long since vanished.
So pyromancy in general is an izalith thing, it would seem.
Which... makes sense.
Given that in the opening cutscene, izalith and the witches of izalith and...
everything to do with them in that cutscene seems to involve fire.
Ah, I like that guy the more I learn about him.
Can be used as a thrust weapon.
You know, I never ran into Siglinde again.
Wonder where she ended up.
Oh!
Solaire's incredible prowess must have come from rigorous training alone, for his equipment exhibits no special traits.
Armor of the sun.
The large, holy symbol of the sun, while powerless, was painted by Solaire himself.
He did his best.
Guardian armor. Armor of the stone knights, guardians of the forest sanctuary.
The stone knights are golems animated by magic and their enchanted armor is oppressibly heavy.
These are the golems I found out in the royal wood...
old version of Darkroot, I believe.
Alright, let me look at these lord souls again.
So, the lord soul of Gravelord Nito, first of the dead.
This lord soul was discovered at the dawn of the age of fire.
Gravelord Nito administers the death of all manner of beings.
The power of this soul is so great that it satiates the lord vessel.
The soul of the bed of chaos—oh, that's what it was called—and the mother of all demons.
Whoa.
This lord soul was found at the dawn of the age of fire.
The Witch of Izalith attempted to duplicate the first flame from a soul.
but instead created a distorted being of chaos and fire.
Its power formed a bed of life which would become the source of all demons,
and is more than enough to satiate the Lordvessel.
That is... about as metal as it gets.
The Quithb Lord Soul Shard - soul of one of the four kings who fell to dark,
a fragment of the Lord Soul discovered at the dawn of the Age of Fire -
Lord Gwyn recognized the foresight of these four great leaders of New Londo,
and granted them their ranks and the fragments of a great soul.
Although this is not a full Lord Soul, it can still satiate the Lordvessel.
And finally, the soul of the albino Seath the Scaleless -
a fragment of the Lord Soul discovered at the yada yada.
Seath allied with Lord Gwyn and turned upon the dragons, and for this he was awarded dukedom -
embraced by the royalty and given a fragment of a great soul.
And I feel like I saw somebody say in the comments - and I don't know if this is generally accepted lore -
but Seath turned on the other dragons because scales are what make dragons immortal -
Seath was not immortal, and Seath may have turned on the other dragons
to be allowed to research the crystal stuff that the archives is full of -
basically, Seath was seeking the immortality that his fellow dragons had.
I don't know, I'm still just kind of assembling this from bits and pieces and half-understood hints from the comments,
so I may be somewhat off, but that's the situation I'm picturing currently.
"The broken pendant - half of a broken stone pendant - the vine appears to originate from Oolacile.
A powerful magic can be sensed from this ancient stone, yet men of this time can neither manipulate nor sense its power,
which has a distant air consisting of both reference and nostalgia."
Yeah, still a lot I don't know about that.
Well, I think that will do it for item description reading.
I've read just about everything of importance that I have, as best I can tell.
And with that...
I think it is time...
...that we make this happen.
I think I'm ready.
Wow, I could-- there's a lot of shards I could feed him if I wanted to.
Wonder if he says anything different.
As the Primordial Serpent, I implore you to defeat them and claim their souls.
Let there be no guilt. Let there be no vacillation.
What is a Primordial Serpent?
There's a lot about him and his king-seeking role that I don't entirely...
...understand.
The beings who possess these souls--
Oh, okay.
As the Primordial Serpent, let there be--
Well...
Let's warp.
Very well. Then... stay still for a moment.
Let's do this.
I'm ready!
To victory!
To the Lordvessel and to whatever awaits beyond that door.
I have no idea what's about to happen...
...but I am excited to find out.
Well?
Everything's repaired. Yep, everything's good.
We're ready!
Let's do it!
Yes!
Oh, man.
At last!
Kingdom hearts!
All right!
Maybe the last fog door we'll have to walk through
Whoa
Who are these knights?
Oh man, this is exciting!
Ooh!
What have we here?
Kiln of the First Flame
Like, the first flame? Like, the flame that ultimately ushered in the Age of Fire?
The flame that brought light and disparity and everything else the opening cutscene says?
That opening cutscene makes a lot more sense at the end of the game than at the beginning of it.
Huh, who are you?
Oh, it's you.
Yeah.
Alright.
Just another black night, I think.
Ooh, what's up here?
Whoa.
This place looks very cool.
I've really developed an appreciation for the aesthetic and the art design of Dark Souls over the course of this.
Like, I wasn't feeling that impressed with it from the very beginning, 'cause, I mean, it's a somewhat dated- looking game, and it's not
outwardly flashy in the way that a Final Fantasy or a lot of other fantasy-setting games are.
But once you start kind of actually looking at it and seeing more of the variety the game brings,
once you're not just looking at the, like, Undead Burg and the Asylum and those other sort of drab areas,
you really start to see the beauty of it, and the unique beauty of it, too.
And if memory serves, they really grow and develop the aesthetic.
They really hone in on the aesthetic even more in future games, like...
What little I have seen of, like, Dark Souls II seems to be even more like they've really figured out the aesthetic, like got it down to a science by that point.
Really--they're really getting, like, the most out of it at that point.
And I assume by Dark Souls III that would only continue.
Maybe I--I may be remembering wrong, though. It may be that a--oop.
Let me, uh...see if I can fight this guy properly and not die while I talk.
Ow.
It may be that I'm remembering wrong and that Dark Souls II isn't actually radically better-looking...
in terms of aesthetic...the way I remember it, but...I don't know, I suppose I will find that out eventually, won't I?
Thanks for watching!
'Cause after all this experience, I...
definitely have to play the other Dark Souls games.
All right, do I head down that way, or...
Yeah, looks like it
Ooh, did I spy a fog door down there in the corner?
Thought I did.
Ow. Reckless.
All right, all right.
So these knights have been...
I don't know who these knights are.
They look similar to the knights...
like, their armor looks somewhat similar to the knights I saw up in--on Orlando, the silver knights.
But I don't know if these...I mean, these guys aren't silver knights, I don't think.
They're...they've got like the...darker, dirtier armor color.
The helmet looks a little different.
I don't know if they serve the...
I mean, the silver knights I assume serve the gods of Anor Londo...
which I assume means the whole Gwyn clan.
I don't know about these knights, though.
All right!
Is this it? Are we here?
Our final destination?
Well, wish me luck!
What?
What are you doing here...alive?
Hello! Okay.
Okay, well you're...
not one for small talk, I get it.
You have a lovely theme...
and fire sword.
Really thought you were dead, though. Like...
Oh my.
You're strong. Okay, I see.
Ow! Well...
That wasn't a good first attempt, but uh...
I was a little bit...distracted by...
your identity.
What is he still doing alive?
I had assumed that Gwyn was gone...
I mean, most of his children are gone for that matter. There was only one left...
if I'm not mistaken, the one he didn't even like...
I think? Or was that the firstborn that fell out of favor?
Either way, I thought Gwyn was gone.
I assumed that's why Anor Londo was in the state it was.
Hmm...
So the impression that I've been getting from the directive that Frampt and Gwynevere...
or I guess Gwyndolin now that I think of it...
everything Gwynevere said was probably...
something Gwyndolin was saying.
Yeah... you're intimidating, that's for sure.
All right.
Yeah, there's a lot I don't entirely understand yet, but...
this is very intriguing.
Maybe he's not the final boss.
Maybe there's another that follows.
Ow! Ow! Ow! Ow! Easy!
Chill with the sword swings.
Chill!
Eh!
Ow!
Stop!
Agh!
I'm causing damage to you, but I'm definitely not evading it.
Eugh!
No.
Nope!
Ow, crumbs! That's not good.
*laughs*
That could've been worse.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, okay.
Heal.
Agh!
She just leaves no openings.
Ow!
Alright.
It is time to...
...one last time...
...get good.
Ah, okay.
Got him down to half health. That's good.
All right, so after four swings, he leaves an opening. Ow!
But then apparently so do I.
Yeesh.
Give me another opening to heal, buddy.
I am not going after you with this amount of health.
Eh. No. No.
This won't work. This won't work. Dodge!
Hoohoohoohoo! Whoa, okay!
I really thought I was gonna get hit.
Gotcha again!
Alright, now what? Whoa! Okay. Okay, okay, okay, okay!
Heh.
Ah! That was fast. Okay.
No, come on! I'm so close!
Thank goodness for those obstacles.
Yeah, you keep stabbing that and I'll be over here.
Ah!
Alright, alright.
Ugh! Ah, it's always sooner than I expect.
Come on.
Ah! Okay. Fast. He's very fast.
Okay!
Ah, one or two more ought to do it.
Ah, one more ought to do it now!
One more.
One more and I think I got him.
Eh, okay.
Alright! No! Oh, okay, that time it hit me, I guess.
I'm healing.
Oohhoohoo!
Get him! Just get him!
Whew!
Boy! Heh heh.
That was a challenge.
Sorry, man.
Whew, huh.
Wow, I'm very tense right now. Heh heh heh.
Okay!
Okay
Well, while I have a moment, let's read that description.
If I can.
"Soul of the Gwyn." "The Gwyn."
The Gwyn's soul is a powerful thing indeed.
Burned as a cinder for the first flame.
I don't entirely understand that yet.
But I do sense that it is very important.
Possibly to understanding a lot of things about...
the greater Dark Souls lore.
Well now what?
Do I head back the way I came? Well, here's a bonfire. I guess I'll...
I'll use that.
Oh!
I seem to be on fire.
Yep, I do definitely appear to be...
bursting into flame.
Oh, am I becoming Gwyn, then? Like, is this what Gwyn did? Ah!
Did I just do the same...
Oh...
Well then...
I do believe those are end credits.
It would appear that I have beaten Dark Souls.
That's awesome!
Oh, man!
I'm so excited to play it again!
Ugh...
This has been a lot of fun.
I have had a great time doing this.
Like, I... I had to learn to enjoy it.
It took me a good number of episodes to really, really start enjoying it.
To like, stop being afraid of the game.
And stop being all nervous about it.
And to actually just enjoy what it was offering.
But...
Overall, I have had a great time.
And the most exciting thing about playing this again sometime is knowing that there is so much...
A) that I still haven't really understood or figured out about the lore of it,
but also knowing that there's a lot that I have almost certainly missed.
Because...
I think there are, like...
As Souls games go, there tend to be a lot of side stories to do with the NPCs you meet and run into, and...
I did run into some of those characters in various places, like I ran into Siegmeyer a bunch.
But a lot of the other characters I only saw a couple of times or maybe even once.
And I suspect a lot of them have...
Their own stories and their own stuff that you can, like...
Other places you can bump into them.
And, I mean, depending on how some of those events play out and how many of those side quests with other NPCs I finish, it might actually change how the game ends.
I mean, these games—the Souls games do tend to have multiple endings, right? Like...
I think Demon's Souls had at least two, depending on what you do at the end.
Bloodborne has a few.
Not really sure about the rest, but...
Yeah, I am, uh... I am looking forward to playing this again sometime.
Actually, the thing I'm looking forward to most right now is...
As I've mentioned a few times toward the end of this series...
Going online and...
Really just diving in to all of the lore videos on YouTube and really getting to...
Kinda understand...
Like, how the, uh...
To understand the stories that have been going on with all these NPCs that I only kinda half ran into and just...
I dunno, there's people who've been thinking about the lore of this game for a long time, way longer than me...
And I cannot wait to watch their videos.
In fact, for those of you who have just been kind of experiencing Dark Souls for the first time with me here, just watching this series through beginning to end...
For one, thank you. Thank you for watching this, but, uh...
Also, if you want to embark on this post-game lore dive...
Along with me, that I am about to go do...
Here are some of the things that I am about to go watch...
Probably tomorrow.
Uh...
First off, I am going to watch all of Vatividya's stuff on Dark Souls.
He's got videos on just about all of the Souls games, lots of them...
They're pretty well produced, he has a great voice...
So I will be watching all of those for certain.
I will also be watching...
A lot of stuff from...
I believe Epic Name Bro...?
"enb" is... I know that abbreviation is correct.
Uh, they're...
He tends to do a lot of, uh, lore-heavy Let's Plays of Dark Souls.
In fact, his most recent one, which I think is called "From the Dark"...
Uh...
...seems to be the most thorough of his Let's Plays of Dark Souls from a lore perspective.
He basically plays through the game like... like the pace at which James and I played through Dark Souls originally, where we were looking at all the design stuff...
That's what he does but for lore.
Oh!
Yes, indeed.
The dark sign brands the undead.
And in this land...
the undead are corralled and led to the north.
Where they are locked away to await the end of the world.
I believe this is the start of New Game Plus.
Yeah, 'cause there's me... with my armor.
This is your fate.
Aw, man.
It was so long ago we were here last — or first, I suppose.
This has been such a good time.
I have had such fun.
Yeah, but here we are again —
with much better gear and more souls than when we left.
[chuckle]
But yes, so...
What I was I-- What was I saying?
Yes, VaatiVidya stuff, Epic Name Bros., uh...
Let's Play, specifically the "From the Dark" series,
I highly recommend-- I watched, like, the first one of those just to kinda get a taste for it, and, uh...
it is awesome, so if you're wanting to...
basically watch through "Dark Souls" again, but...
getting... as much detail from a lore perspective as possible,
definitely check that out.
Uh...
I've also seen...
that several people have kind of created...
movies of, like "Dark Souls" the movie...
versions and edits, where they kinda take all of the, uh...
story stuff and the dialogue bits and the...
what few cutscenes there are and tried to edit them together into sort of a film...
thing, which I'm...
really excited...
seeing "Dark Souls" in that sort of way, so...
looking forward to that, and...
also, I think I've...
there have been several other people who've just made kind of general videos...
analyzing and critiquing "Dark Souls" that I wanna check out, I think...
"Super Bunnyhops" is one that I definitely wanna...
that I definitely wanna see now that I've finished the game.
Anyway, that's the sort of stuff I'm gonna be watching over the next couple of weeks...
and, uh, just...
really binging on, and I am going to have a great deal of fun.
I may in fact...
I dunno, I may eventually make a follow-up video just kind of...
wrapping up this whole "Dark Souls" thing...
later...
uh...
once I've learned a bit more about the lore and reflecting on...
what our playthrough actually did and was.
I dunno, I may not do that, we'll see, but...
one thing that I...
certainly will do...
is, uh...
I will definitely be playing more "Dark Souls"...
and if you guys would like it, and I sense that you would...
I would be happy to continue "SideQuest" as a series with me doing that.
Uh, I am...
currently planning to move on to, next...
"Dark Souls II".
I know "Dark Souls III" is about to come out, or may be out already by the time this last episode releases.
And I thought about moving to "Dark Souls III" next, but the more I thought about it...
I kinda like to actually play the series in the order it was released, just for myself.
But also, I suspect that a big part of the appeal of this series, for some of you at least - maybe not all of you -
is in knowing what's happening before I do.
Like, getting to see me fall into traps that I don't know to expect yet.
And getting to see me discover stuff for the first time, and all of that.
I suspect that's kinda part of the fun for some of you, and I would not want to...
and I would not want to lose that, so...
My plan is to play "Dark Souls II" next, which should give all of you ample time to play "Dark Souls III" when it comes out.
Really learn it, forward and backward.
And then you will all be ready and prepared and know everything before I get into "Dark Souls III", but...
Anyway, that is my current plan.
I don't know when I will start releasing...
the side-quest videos for "Dark Souls II". There may be a little bit of a break in-between, just as I kinda...
just... take a break.
But until then...
I want to thank all of you so much for watching this and going on this little journey with me.
Like I said in an earlier episode...
Getting to play this for an audience...
and an audience that really loves this series...
has been really fun and it's really highlighted the...
sort of shared joy community aspect of the "Dark Souls" games and...
I don't know, it's really made this playthrough...
quite special and fun and I want to thank you guys for that.
And thank you for your many tips and encouragements in the comments and...
just thank you for joining me on this ride and...
I look forward to starting another one soon.
But until then...
I am just gonna go binge on a bunch of "Dark Souls" lore, so...
Thank you very much!
As always, for watching, and, uh...
Thank you for helping me get through "Dark Souls"
And I can think of no better way to end this closing "Dark Souls" speech...
...than with superfluous laughter
