      omg how appropriate is that for the souls series?? "and Hungry-Faced Gil, once feared amongst all blood dinosaurs that roam this foul land? thy own maker remembers thee not. what canst thou give save for ashes and cheat codes" - the dark souls 7 trailer, 2029

      To quote Justin “he’s too sad”. He was a lighting rod of suffering and sadness to carry our emotional weight, then be forgotten so we may live unburdened. To remember him is to disgrace the sacrifice he made for us.

    • @jordan3636
      @jordan3636 2 ปีที่แล้ว +29

      It's not "back" they're just doing a episode to jump on the elder ring hype train. It's not like this means they're going to be doing weekly or monthly episodes.
      Compared to the media company they already run it doesn't make much sense to put so much effort into video, when people don't pay for video.

    I find it interesting that the Grinch Hunter is hairy and green, like the Grinch himself. Thematically it reminds me of Bloodborne, where the hunters must encourage the beasthood within themselves in order to do battle with the beasts, so too must the Grinch Hunter walk the line between Who and Grinch.
