Sam Winkler @ThatSamWinkler Follow Dark Souls revolutionized games, in the sense that instead of a story now you can just have some guy with a big SWord named Myrmidon of Loss who gasps “Zanzibart… forgive me” when he dies and then twenty YouTubers will make an hour long video about how deep your lore is
I don’t know why but I love Bloody Finger Hunter Yura and his whole quest, even though I don’t understand fuck all about it.
I’m like that for Alexander. But I understand him. He is a jar. He is stuck. I hit him. He is unstuck. Easy story.
Please make a 3-hour long video essay about it!
If you don’t expect Alexander, it can be a really jarring experience
You’d like this guy.
Onii-chan~ help me I’m stuck or something
The DLC has some jar lore (I fucking love reading descriptions for craftable items and ingredients), but I am still non-plussed about the jars. It’s a fun game to play in the company of a friend who doesn’t game, because their bafflement really highlights how much absurdity we just get used to.
My boi dedicated his life to killing insane invaders who kill randomly because his ex girl became one after they broke up. After he tried to kill her and she slayed his ass he’s like “Nah, you know what, imma just give my earthly flesh to an all consuming outer god who’ll end all existence man”
We’ve all been there.
I don’t even remember who that is
He usually goes by Dave
He can’t be Dave, I’d know him if he was Dave
No, other Dave.
Do you think it’s Bloody-Finger Hunter Yura, or Bloody Finger-Hunter Yura? I think the straightforward answer is the first one, but do we know for sure? In this space of uncertainty is where the seeds of video essays germinate.
Maybe BF is a group? “Bloody Finger, Hunter Nora.”
