DARK SOULS Cinematic Short Film - FATE 

Genius and emotionally powerful words.

For me it’s the “Strong human… I beg of thee… The spread of the abyss… it must be stopped.” Personally I feel like he knows that in order for it to be “stopped” then he will have to die, as he’s been corrupted.

@@scalesthecobra9685 No. He realises he has been lied to. The sun he seeks doesnt exist on the outside, only through demonic sorcery can it be found and that is why we find him ILLUMINATED by the parasite on his head. I could go into Fromsofts satanic details but theres no point, no one wants to know these games reality

Sounds like something I’m too proud to tell my family... :/

*Flashbacks to Bone Wheels in the Basement

Why didn't you pet her on the way through in the video? >:o

Hearing her say this made me think that she hasn't left that room in a very long time. Perhaps when she arrived there, they were kind and peaceful.

@@justdata6549 there is a reason for her to say that. she was treated very bad... she is a crossbread and half dragon. dragons are the evil in the world of dark souls. imagine everyone hates you.. and suddenly there is a world where nobody wants to harm you and you are welcome. so for her it´s a peaceful place.

@@pard2397 True but everyone that would have wanted to hurt her is long dead by the time we meet her.

Deep

Yet history forgot about him and his journey and treated him like any other nameless undead which is really sad and tragic when you think about it.

Jesus was the first chosen undead, he had to descend into the abyss in order to be resurrected into the light...myaaaan 😋

@@MrMcslammer1 bruh

Except in the end, the "Chosen Undead prophecy" was just some made up drivel from some old guy who likes lightning in a desperate and selfish attempt to prolong his happy and (literally) bright life, at the expense of the humanities of literally every other person in the dark souls world. It's a clever, additional subversion to that classic trope.

STAHP

“Ah Sif, there you are”

STOP THIS MADNESS YOU TEAR JERKING BASTARD

Thou art strong human....

I’M NOT CRYING, YOU ARE!

Praise the Sun

The man himself said amazing

ThePruld but is it as amazing as the amazing chest ahead?

You're breathtaking

DOVE IL TERZO EPISODIO????

I love this line from aldia so much

late i know, but when i saw the descent of solaire into madness and had to kill him(rip) i too used his shield from there to the bitter end like a subtle tribute to sunbro

@@eduardorebolledo7196 the worst is that the first time we get there, theres no way of knowing what to do to prevent his madness. We are doomed to kill him. In reality its the first run that matters, we can never forget the time when we killd him and thats why we do another run where we can save him.

@@eduardorebolledo7196 I used oscars shield for the same reason: a tribute to the first lost soul and a promise to keep the torch lit

@@landladyification the oscar fate is so sad....u cant do anything for him :(

@@landladyification see u in lordran, dont give up skeleton!

We're getting Elden Ring, it's all good

He won't make dark souls 4 because dark souls 3 is the final series of the game

@@tomatoboi5735 Well, he said that he will at the end of his career

HAVEL THE ROCK Dark souls is over man. It was set up for an ending and that ending was delivered. Dark souls changed us all.... but it’s over man...

Dark souls isn't on my list of favourite video games anymore, it took a new special place in my heart that no game can take

We will invite to their worlds and ask them about their dislikes.

with quelaag? :^)

Nah lost izalith

@@zent8324 With those ogre things

an eternity of cragspider and mosquito stew, with giant leech steak, and "hot dogs"

and the fair lady faded in to ash in the ruins of her city, waiting for her sisters return

@@rhynlock11 Her sister did return. Quelana returned to her in the end, and they died together. At least we have that. Thanks Fromsoft ; _ ;

git gud

And ultimately your grammar failed

PEENwheel hahaha

*sobs*

I’m not crying over a video on RU-vid, your crying over a video on RU-vid

His Bastard Sword had an S scaling in feels.

Limit Breakers took care of all your Andre needs.

Andre was in it.

Yup at 12:47

Try to do not die out there, neither of us want you to go hollow

I always wondered… even if it a video game, I always asked myself what drove me so continue on this game. You gave me the answer, it was because of Oscar.

IT’S TRUE😱

Is never late to appreciate this art work

It’s Fate for him to like them

Unlike his brother parrycynical

Time is different in the dark soul universe 😅😎

Official Gavin Seal of Approval! :)

miracleofsound Wow, praise from (a) Caesar.

same, poor sif :[

**plays screamo heavy metal through the entire video**

@@oivatank Soulmass should be playing in every dark souls video

Here here brother.

@@oivatank "screamo heavy metal" Come on.... You are just talking shit, and don't know anything about metal hahaha

ALIGATORXZXZ talking shit? I’m afraid I don’t understand

Congrats on 11k ! keep up the work with the short films, also, you should really make a bloodborne short film

No, thank YOU :)

Srsly this is fking fire so beautifully made got me feeling the nostalgia u know

Great Work. Have to Play it again.

Thanks for makin this. You must have the dark soul

Just as Shrek said, "people are like onions they have layers"

@Zero Gravity Blood I wouldn't say the most saddest, but I'd say one of the most, like the second or third saddest

I don't know if you will see this comment or not, but if you do, there is a certain animation called "we are the souls" Of you loved this, you will love it too.

Search for Sunlight Maggot and you will love it.

here aldia speech from ds2 is stuck in my head about how gwyn banished dark and humans and so on.... and ends with A Lie will remain a lie!!. always gives me goosebumps

@@BloodPaladin Dude, Dark Souls 2 has issues, but fascinating characters and cool dialogue was never one of them. I love all of Aldia's speeches. He adds a lot of dramatic weight to some of the history.

@@ReverseSkeleton yep :)

Not to mention ds2 had possibly the best pvp there was

Same here man

levat tavel Could’ve been a lot better. It was incredible made and clearly took a shit ton of effort, but he missed a lot of opportunities to make it even better.

Well, the video is quite the opposite tone from a Dark Souls game. You can see this is a love letter and the creator put a lot of work into it, but that doesn't make it exempt of criticism. The soundtrack in the video is very emotional, probably trying to appeal the nostalgia in all of us, but the truth is Dark Souls is the other way around, and it's atmosphere is nothing but sadness, solitude and despair. Music only happens in boss battles and firelink. There's not a single moment of joy, happiness or hope in the entire saga. Can't help but find Dark Souls look generic in a fan video like this, but there's some camera angles that allowed me to see some places in a different way, which is really nice, because the first game's architecture is nothing but magistral.

@@ZerosMy You're kidding right? There's not a single moment of joy, happiness, or hope? The game is filled with that stuff. Most of that is felt by the player as they overcome their trials and tribulations. Overcoming Lordran itself. As for hope in particular, that is absolutely everywhere. Solaire comes to Lordran in the hope of finding his own sun. Frampt continues to spurn on undead in the hope of finding a successor to Gwyn. Gwyn himself kindles the flame in the hope of staving of darkness. Quelaag works tirelessly in the hope of healing her sister. Quelaana asks you to kill her sisters in the hope of ending their suffering. The game is all about hope and never ever giving up. Because if you give up, you become truly lost (hollowed). This video showcases perfectly how despite how bleak everything is we MUST continue on. The dark, brutal, and desperate world Dark Souls is only serves to show just how strong the people you come across are. Either in mind, body, spirit, or all 3. It also shows how you should never give up. Never give up on hope, because eventually you WILL rise above the rest. Eventually, you WILL succeed.

@@hohhoch3617 Nonsense. Your interpretation of the game is too simplistic. Everything in Dark Souls end up fucked. Frampt is a liar manipulator. The game is a gigantic metaphor of real life and how humans do anything to alter nature's in order to benefit and extend their own existence. We altered our enviroment to make it fit better our society and we are basically destroying everything on the way for artificial purposes, just like Gwyn does with the first flame that is, inevitable going to vanish sooner or later. What you call hope, is actually DESPERATION to perpetuate a selfish and artificial way of living, and the world shows the consecuences of not accepting that fate. Pretty much everything is hollow and broken beyong repair. The reason you can end up not linking the first flame and the start of the age of darkness is the actual "good" ending of the game after you speak with Kaathe and she tells you the truth about Gwyn, Frampt and what is happening. Solaire being the most naive character in the game chasing an impossible objective that he'll never accomplish as you can see in DS3. If you really think the true message of the game is as simplistic and generic as "never losing hope", "never give up", then, you didn't understand the game, at all. You basically have to endlessly kill other beings in order to keep your "sanity", which is as pesimistic and selfish as it gets. There's nothing left to save. Humans were hollow before the light, and that's the way they really are and the way they'll end up, not matter how much they refuse to. Gwyn and it's people destroyed and betrayed pretty much everything that was right before, the RIGHT thing to do, is letting the flame die once and for all. The very primordial serpetns that you claim to be promovers of "hope" are the ones that started the downfall in the first place by lying and corrupting Oolacile and it's people, awaking Manus and with him, the abyss. Izalith, one of the "good guys" tried to replicate the flame and ended up infesting all Lordran with abominations. Same applies to pretty much all the others. What you call "hope" and "never giving up" is nothing but a virtual representation of ignorance, selfishness and egocentrism, refusing to accept nature's way, just like we do. Dark Souls doesn't show you how to fight or having hope, it shows you how USELESS it is. You said it yourself, pretty much every NPC is relying on hope to accomplish what they desire, but NONE of them actually manage to do it. Yes, you'll end up fighting Gwyn and, if you so desire, kindle the first flame, again, but ¿why would you want to do that in the first place?.

​@@ZerosMy My interpretation is too simple? Fuck you. I'll enjoy the game's story and the message I get from it however I wish. That's one of the joys of this game.

Yeah the Solaire shield was a nice detail

When I finished dark souls one for the first time I swear it was no is the only game that changed something in me I knew immediately after igniting the first flame for the first time every other game would feel mundane and hollow

Or Dark Souls III?

I second this BLOODBORNE ONE PLEASE!

I third this! Bloodborne, please! ❤️

Thank you. I've tried to include as many quests as I could, but yes the nature of DS1's semi open world made it hard to cram in everything. I've chosen the ones that are closest to me :)

One of the best game tributes ever, saw it a few years ago and I always come back to it .

Same... It's like the game really cursed us😂😂 now it's our duty to keep rekindling the first flame✋🔥

i strongly agree

Pretty sure this was captured in the Remaster.

Might have been footage from remaster, but it's heavily edited and arguably looks better than the game actually looks. That's the point.

Knight Grimm Exactly, it's footage from the remaster, and it still looks better. Shows how much effort Bandai put into the remaster XD Seriously though you can tell how much effort he put into it when you it's better than the original

@@KnightGrimm1988 pretty sure this remaster is moded the shit out of it. Look at the sharpness thats not how the game looks. This looks insane compared to the original remaster

Glad you enjoyed it :)

You're very welcome. Glad you enjoyed it so much!

That'd be nice, but the utilities needed to make cinematic scenes like in this and the DS3 video uh... Don't quite work for PS4. Same would go for Demons Souls on the PS3. Would like to see a DS2 video as well, but that's unlikely given the level of work that goes into these videos... And the fact 2's the black sheep of the series. In the meantime though, bravo ParryGod. Beautiful piece of work.

My guy. Your contents great to Rehvion.
