Description
Greetings! I'm illusory wall and I make videos about Dark Souls (and sometimes other retro games). Active in the community since the release of Dark Souls 1, I've often been first-in-line to help test and discover how various mechanics work in the Souls series. I'd previously make edits to the wikis or post my findings in forums, but more recently I've been making video essays and explorations of my findings. I put an emphasis on talking about things that haven't been covered before, or doing the deepest dives I can. Hope you enjoy!
Non-standard content (like casual game streams) wind up as unlisted videos, but still findable through my playlists if you'd like to watch them.

As someone who went into the DLC almost completely blind when it was new, it did indeed go pretty much like:

Chester losing the wolf ring is the reason there’s no poise in Bloodborne lol

3:45 How did I not know that you can see dusk inside the crystal golem, that's so cool. Can't believe I've never noticed that before!

I played the Prepare To Die edition on PC blind. Then when I finished the game I looked up stuff and realised I had missed the DLC entirely.

I always thought the blue crystal golems were so out of place in the hydra basin. But the fact that a blue crystal golem drops the pendant in the dukes archives validates them being there and is a huge clue for the player to explore that area further.

Ok, now do a 15-minute deep dive on how players were expected to find the Pickaxe in DS2

what's funny to me is when the Ringed City released for DS3 and everyone was claiming they "accidentally" found the solution to the "show your humanity" puzzle

FromSoft has a tendency to view their quest lines with this child-like hope that the internet doesn't exist to ruin organic discovery in-game, while simultaneously hinging all understanding of them on absolutely sharing information online - sometimes info that is 100% unavailable from all official sources. When people mention how absurd the DLC discovery is, they're typically talking about someone playing the game for the first time, with no outside help. No internet, no noticing changes during updates, etc. I imagine most people doing that would completely miss the DLC, almost every time, unless they were very devoted to exploring.

I still love the idea that Chester stole the ring from Artorias’s body after we defeated him. Even though it’s cut dialogue, Ciaran witnessing Chester’s pillaging is great.

Thinking back to when this game was new, learning basic stuff like the names of characters in the lore and locations of items and merchants was all extremely esoteric. The only way to find stuff was to trust word of mouth from forums, since most of my friends had never even heard of Dark Souls until I showed it to them.

3:18 - I can confirm that when a download code for DLC is sent to reviewers/journalists, there are usually instructions included regarding how to access the content (besides just entering the code in the PS/XBOX store) so most if not all of those who played it first, that being the people who received the codes, knew how to access the content.
