Garrulous Goldmask - Invidious

Garrulous Goldmask

FromSoft games are brilliant. Beautiful. They enchant us to the point of obsession.

Behind the Goldmask: I dusted off my degree in Religious Studies to try and understand what is going on with Elden Ring’s insanely intricate lore. Determined to keep feeding the fire, I've also gone lore hunting across the Dark Souls trilogy and Armored Core 6. I do have plans to explore Bloodborne and Sekiro, though Shadow of the Erdtree is going to keep me busy for a while.

While I'm mainly focused on FromSoft games at the moment, I also dabble in girthy video essays.

So if you also enjoy Elden Ring lore and its many real-world influences from religion, history, mythology, art, and philosophy, with a few memes and some unhinged speculation thrown in, you've come to the right place!
