Souls Mix Tape Vol 02: Miriel, Untended Graves, Illusory Walls, Patches, Gwyndolin, Primal Knights

Hi everyone! Glad you made it :) Dont forget to check out our other, better, premiere right after this one! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qbBRm-6gkXI

I like this format! Here's a question for the backlog. What did Vendrick steal from the Giants? And why did he need anything in the first place?

Q1 1:16 Is Mirel trustworthy? Q2 6:12 Where exactly in time does Untended Graves exist? Q3 12:35 Is there a lore reason for Illusory Walls? Q4 14:21 Is Patches an immortal time traveler or reincarnating? Q5 19:24 What is Sophie's redemptive reading of Gwyndolin being consumed by Aldrich? Q6 27:41 Is there an explanation for the design of the Primal Knights in DS2?

"Oh I can probably draw a lot of the super metroid map still, though I don't know if--" "we should get Kayin on-board" Getting called out mid thought will never not be shock

Thanks for answering my question! I do remember you mentioning that in the Aldrich video recently now that you brought it up again. Looking forward to more Mixtapes and any other content!

What are your thoughts on spiral, crucible and snake themes in Elden Ring? All Dlc is about spiral, Mesmer has a snake in him and wields flame, and in base game godskins wield flame, have snake-like features and their weapons are spiral-like. Love your deep dive lore analysis

I love Sin insight on Souls games enemies, truly a great Lore-racle.

On the unused ceremony system in DS3, Lance McDonald said that there was a "very interesting aspect" that he would elaborate on in a follow up video, but he never did. Any idea what it was? Maybe making a video about it would've violated some NDA?

Frampturtle confirmed?!?!

For dark firelink shrine: I don't think "when" is a question that can be answered. Light is time according to the repair spell item description. Dark firelink has no light ergo no time (hence the past implications and present implications)

It's lore girl summer

Question for the backlog! Who is Messmer’s father? I’m unconvinced by the general comsensus that it’s Radagon because of the red hair, because Melina has brown hair and is also explicitly Messmer’s sister, and neither Marika nor Radagon has brown hair.

I hope Yorshka is addressed in the Gwyndolin/Aldrich section

Been waiting on this, can you please touch on the cries, steps, and ringing of the walking mausoleums in the first cutscene when you rise as a tarnished of no renown? Are we Godwyn reborn after the eclipse?

I have a very serious question: Why are there bright yellow urine stains down the centre of Logarius's boss arena, does he have incontinence issues?

Did Sophie get a new mic?

The MCU 😂

is Sophie beefing with AH [redacted]??

Hey, apparently there are some awful mistranslations and liberties taken by the localization team on the Elden Ring DLC. Maybe having Lokey on could be a good idea? I don't blame you for staying away from ER. That lore is FUBAR.

I actually asked miyazaki where the untended graves were untended to be (back when he used to hang out at the gas station across from my apartment all the time), and he said they they exist "in a parallel dimension up your mothers ass." (I'm assuming he meant the player character's mother's ass, but he just said it was "up for interpretation," and refused to elaborate further). If anyone else had told me that, i would have thought they were just making a distasteful off-color joke, but the look in his eyes when he said it told me he was being absolutely, 100%, dead serious. He hasn't been around much lately, because he fell into an alternate dimension behind the gas station dumpster right after shadow of the erdtree released. The last time i saw him he was ranting about how the translators and george rr martin had "ruined (his) masterpiece" to appease the ratings boards. Apparently, his original title for the expansion was "shadow of the turdtree" and the entire thing would take place inside rahdans rotting colon. According to miyazarki, the "scadutree" was originally called the "scat-ew-tree," and was supposed to be a giant tree sculpted entirely from human excrement. Because of miyazarkis, largely unknown, scathing hatred of "modern technology," he hand chiseled all of his plans for the game (including every frame of animation), on giant stone slabs, which, according to Miyazaki, were all stolen by george rr martin and destroyed. Its a shame that we will probably never get to see miyazakis final "souls" game as he originally intended.
