    I truly admire the way you subtly weave elements of mental decline and moral erosion into the narrative. These hints of unraveling add a layer of dark foreshadowing that keeps me intrigued and eager to see how it unfolds. It’s a captivating touch that elevates the storytelling. Keep up the fantastic work!

    it’s honestly super impressive how much of this games narrative you seem to pick up on without any help, and it’s great to watch you piece things together… there are some things i cant wait to see your reaction on. You’re also great at exploring, you’ve found many secrets that i never found on my own without a guide. it’s really refreshing to see how you are in it for the entire experience and not just the bosses, keep it up 🙏

      @@dreadingmortality wow… the way you sold it is so impressive! i love the idea of a character and the seeds of development you’ve planted for him. This is by far the best elden run playthrough i’ve ever seen and even if there’s some trickery behind the scenes i cant wait to see how the character develops and makes sense of the world around him. The way you foreshadow is impressive, such as mentioning the statue of godfrey in stormveil castle subtly and just general things like that. this is a great love letter to the game and i cant wait to see how it progresses!

    man, the story telling, the way the tarnished gets more and more dark, how he finds out about frost, incantations, weapons, the contempltions, these videos are too short hahaha looking foward to see how his views and morals change, for better or worst

      He he... thanks, man. I also wish I had more time on my hands, but RL tends to demand all sorts of boring things, instead of just letting me have fun with RP runs 🥲 Glad you noticed btw; I'm trying to establish a logic in his discovery of mechanics and playstyles.
