The Berserk video is here!

It is a comprehensive analysis of the overarching narrative of the story, and ends with what I believe is the best possible theory as to how it will end, taking into account every single relevant detail and clue.

The culmination of hundreds and hundreds of hours of my passionate work is finally here. I truly hope you will enjoy it.

O, Elden Ring!

Hey! This post is yet another relevant update.

I have created a Discord server to chat with you all. The invite is as follows: discord.gg/Au5c3zxbya

It'll likely be a few more days until my next upload for a couple of reasons.

I'm setting up my new microphone (which just arrived).

And I've been writing four different video scripts at the same time. The first, which will likely be my next upload, will cover a few interesting details of Elden Ring's lore.
The next two are massive projects that aim to cover the entirety of Dark Souls 1/2/3's and Elden Ring's overarching narratives.
And lastly, I'm also crafting an elaborate theory about GGRM's A Song of Ice and Fire's cosmology, the role of the Outer Gods in the narrative and the Maester conspiracy. In fact, this script was what motivated me to create the Discord server and make this post! I'm not sure if there are many ASOIAF fans subscribed to my channel, but if you're one of them, I'd like to ask for your help in gathering evidence and peer-reviewing my ideas! xD


I've also implemented channel memberships for The Firelink Conspiracy, and added a few Elden Ring emotes for members to use. I don't promise any type of exclusive content as I only intend this function to serve as an extra way of gathering funds to upgrade my setup/the production quality of my videos as well as an incentive for me to upload more frequently.
I'm truly grateful for the support I've been getting as of recently, thank you all so much!

Hi! This is another important update.

Thanks a lot for your overwhelming support. My Elden Ring video was by far my most popular upload to date (in relative numbers.) I'm deeply grateful!

However, I've also received plenty of criticism, as well as negative/rude comments. That, along with the fact that I've made two minor mistakes in the video, and in hindsight I feel it should've been a bit denser, I'll be reworking and reuploading an improved version of it.

Of course, this will harm my channel quite a bit. But again, as my subscribers know, I don't upload for the algorithm and value the content I produce over what I get from it. I'm truly sorry for being so stubborn! And if you see a double notification that's why. xD

Hey! This post is an important channel update.

For my next project, I'll be remaking the 'Firelink Conspiracy' video with updated information, more illustrative evidence and a vastly improved script. It'll be part of an enormous video which will cover the entirety of the main plot of Dark Souls 1/2/3.

After that, I'll make the follow up video for my Demon's Souls upload, which will cover the details of that game in depth. And then, I'll go on to make more videos solving lore mysteries of Dark Souls (and possibly other From Software games.)

My computer is running out of space to store video files, and I plan to purchase an external drive. I also want to buy a better microphone to improve the audio quality and overall production value of my videos. And lastly, I'm thinking of acquiring a better processor, as my current hardware is facing severe performance issues and excessive crashing during video editing.

However, I can't afford to spend much money from my pocket at the moment. I'm currently an undergraduate, an aspiring writer and fine artist, and have ambitious plans for my personal life. But this channel is a passion project of mine, and I want to create for it the best work I possibly can.

I truly intend to solve Miyazaki's games to perfection! And share my discoveries with you. It is one of my aspirations.

Which is why I've made the hard decision of monetizing my videos, and opening my channel to donations. I'll be investing the majority of the revenue I get from this to improve the quality of my uploads. Of course, I have no hard expectations; I perceive this as a minor incentive for me to commit more of my time and budget.

I'm very sorry for the inconvenience. I encourage you all to deal with the ads in whatever ways you wish. I'm sure most of you know how to deal with them if they bother you. xD

I'm deeply grateful for the support and feedback I get from you. Thank you all for your time.

Hey! Just a quick update.
I unlisted my latest Demon's Souls video as I intend to not only polish its script a bit more, but also massively increase it in size.

I've realized there's an out of place audio clip at the 1:42 mark of my latest video. I can't believe I let that in. I'm very sorry about that. I'm considering fixing it and reuploading the video. I don't particularly care about the loss of engagement that will cause as I don't upload for the sake of the algorithm.

If you see the notification for that video again this is the reason why. xD
