    Small corection, Godrick was not a son of Godfrey, but a more distant relative, possible a grandchild

    • @moviebad109
      @moviebad109 Před 11 dny +9

      Idk where I read it, but I think he's implied to be the son of Godwyn. So Godfrey would be his Grandfather if that were the case. He IS a demigod, so he had to come directly from Marika's line realistically. Either through Godfrey and Marika or Marika/Radagon and Renalla.

      @@moviebad109 I’m sorry to sound like that “well actually” kind of guy, but in the game it is stated that Godrick is of the golden lineage and the golden lineage is stated to be the bloodline born from the union of Godfrey and Marika.

      @@Doommarine-sr8y it can be interpreted both ways honestly. I don’t mind at all, I love this about from soft lore.
      I could swear he’s referred to as a “descendant” of Godfrey, which can be inferred to mean he’s not a direct descendant considering how some people refer to him as a “distant” relation. And it specifically only ever says he’s “of the golden lineage” which could also be interpreted as being an offspring of Godrefy’s offspring. He’s also referred to as having “diluted” blood ties to the golden lineage, so who knows what that actually means. It could also explain why part of Godwyn’s Corpse is below stormveil castle in the form of deathroot. I took it to mean Godwyn has some connection to the place, and by extension, Godrick.
      Who knows what’s actually correct though; George RR Martin or Miyazaki alone could probably answer the question. lol

      @@moviebad109 Finger Reader Enia (the lady sitting next to your 2 fingers) literally says this after you gain access to the Roundtable and defeating Godrick:
      "The demigods are each and all the direct offspring of Queen Marika. Godrick the Grafted was but a distant relation... The runt of the litter, his divine blood sorely diluted."
      He can't be a "direct" son of Godwyn. Otherwise the rest of Marika's family wouldn't see Godrick as the "runt of the litter" and his divine blood is apparently "sorely dilluted". His blood shouldn't be diluted at all if he trully was a direct descendent

    Radahn probably inspired from Takeda Shingen and his epic rivalry with Uesugi Kenshin in which both were regarded as equal with nobody came out on top to the end.
    Unmistakable flowing mane behind helmet portrayal, honorable gestures shown to enemy and mastery in own styles but can't beat each other.. immediately reminds me of Shingen.
    Also read somewhere about the term God of War in japanese version and that's literally the title Kenshin also known as (although here associated with opposite side) for his religious afflictions.
    Just my guess only. Quite sure of it myself but up to you.

      As with real history not every single detail reveales itself - what outsiders don't understand is that is part the charm, to discover the answers one has to delve deep. Like the games combat it's not for everyone but for those who like challenges and mysteries to be solved, earning hard won victories, overcoming obstacles, and unveiling hidden histories adds another level of satisfaction not found in other games like Elder Scrolls

    Elden Ring mythology is the most unique among all fantasy - of which all can trace their origin back to Tolkien's work. George RR Martin and Miyazaki broke the fantasy mold in a way I've never seen from anything in D&D, book, video game, or comic book. It's semi based on religion and mythology of the real world (from Norse to Christian) with everything from armor to architecture being derived from actual history, and yet retains its own stark individuality throughout

    In addition to the two corrections posted by the other 2 commenters below, I'd like to add a third: Rennala gifted Lord Radagon with what is likely a regular Moonlight Greatsword, which would later be reforged into the Golden Order Greatsword by Radagon himself as stated by the item description: "Telltale signs betray that this was once the greatsword bequeathed to him by his first wife, Rennala."
    So, the Amber Egg is likely the only thing Radagon ever gifted to Rennala.

    Godrick is only a relative of Hoarah Loux not a Demigod, why is it so many it seems didnt know that., Also Radahn went to Selia to study gravity magic so he can ride his horse.
    Also the mispronunciations of names are just so suspiciously prevalent in many videos and other channels , which makes me believe its on purpose, because that what most people do correction and so write comments and writting comments must be somewhat helps in the algorithim to boost the channel's subscribers or views.

      I dont know if you both dont have common sense ot just you know,
      they made some research about it and by that have watched some videos so they know the names proper pronunciation and theres 50/50 chance that the staff played the game.
      so mistakes that was not corrected for a very long time eventhough its been pointed out by many, its likely its on purpose
      and if you need help to understand: if someone said thats wrong and repeat it again for not being thorough in the next video.
      and im sure like I said its not just this video there are like everywhere mispronouncing names and inaccurate informations not just this channel.
      and yes commenting does improve algorithim , its always follow the money.
