"Hello faders! Welcome to the new issue of "Game Hundred Sayings", I am Madoka, an environmental scientist! ”

On the hot search list of Perak videos.

A video titled "What Story Does Elden Ring Tell" directly rushed to the top 3 of the hot search.

In less than two days, it has won a full 300w+ video views.

This is also enough to verify the continuous popularity of "Elden" since its release.

Even a related second-creation video has such a considerable number of views.

Madoka is a full-time game UP master of Thunderbolt Station, and he can be regarded as an old man of Thunderbolt Station.

In the early years, it was tied with Zhang Heng's 'Lao Zhang Says Game' series as the most popular game video at Perak.

It's just that with the serious homogenization of games, there are more and more krypton games, all of which are the same gameplay and skin modeling.

The number of video views of Xiaoyuan and Lao Zhang has also deteriorated, almost to the point where they can't hold on.

And there is no endless road.

The birth of the number one player made Zhang Heng, who took stock of the game's novel gameplay and excellent mechanics, become popular for the second time.

Because it was the first to start making the number one gamer series of videos, plus there was a foundation for game UP.

Zhang Heng has faintly become the current leader in the game area.

On the other hand, Madoka's situation is a little embarrassing.

After Zhang Heng became popular, he drove a group of UP who made videos of the same style as him.

There is so much of the cake, and it has been almost divided by peers.

Even if Madoka wants to get a piece of the pie, I'm afraid it will be difficult to mix it up again.

But with the release of Elden.

Madoka saw another hope.

The plot of the game is explained to the commentary.

Commentary UP, in the major video fields is not a few.

Film and television commentary, animation commentary, famous book analysis, etc., you name it.

And many viewers have no patience or time to read the original book in the current fast-paced life.

The Speed Edition is the way to go.

Among the many explanations.

Only, there is no category of game plot commentary.

The reason for this.

There's really no such thing as a game genre that can be mastered.

The plot of the gacha game is the same.

Even the multiple games owned by Ready Player One.

The storyline is also simply ignored.

Mario is fun.

But does it have any vivid and seductive plot?

No.

"The Game of Genting" is not bad to rub two handfuls in your spare time, right?

But it still has no plot.

It's not that the entire category of games has never had a plot-oriented game.

It's just that in the past, these games were linear in the narrative style.

Players can understand almost all the plots by walking through them.

There is no need for UP to make a plot analysis at all.

But the release of "Elden" broke this situation for the first time.

The new definition of open world has brought a new mode of plot insertion - granularity.

Different from the fragmentation that can be unlocked by clearing the level in the past.

The fragmentation of "Elden" even belongs to the fact that players don't even know what the game is about as long as they don't watch it carefully, and they don't even know what the game is about.

I just know that I was killed by monsters at the junction, and then I grew all the way to the point where I could chase monsters and kill them, and I felt a sense of accomplishment.

Then I became the King of Elden.

And then it was gone.

"Isn't there really a player who's played it once and wants to know what the game says?" With this in mind, Madoka tried to do a phase of environmental research.

It turned out to be surprisingly popular.

A week after the video was posted, the number of views has exceeded 500w+

Many viewers who watched it said "? So that's the case? "Surprised, so many details? "Wori, this branch line is here...... I said how did I look for a long time"

The audience's enthusiasm and urging made Madoka happy.

also started to make the second and third phases non-stop......

Due to the fact that Madoka's video production introduced a lot of game text as proof, and the attitude of making the video was very careful.

Even many viewers who have never played "Elden" have chased his video as an anime.

Looking at it, I think this game is really interesting.

And then go into the game, and it abounds.

“…… Last time, we said that after the Fader vs. Shattered Star, he broke the seal of the stars. The Eternal City, which was driven underground, had to be smashed open by the falling stars and seen the light of day. ”

"But if you think that Player One is only open for the sake of opening the world, and made an underground world for the player to experience surprises, then you are very wrong."

"Based on what I've found, as well as the text I've collected inside the game. This Eternal City also hides secrets, and it is an indispensable part of sorting out the plot line. ”

Soon, in the process of Madoka's narration.

Elden Ring's worldview is also beginning to be pieced out by him little by little.

Originally, in the earliest period of the junction.

More like a melting pot of chaos.

The life that emerges from the furnace is strange.

There are those covered with horns, and there are also people who face ugly subhumans.

There are various types of large insects, jellyfish and other organisms, as well as different types of animals.

There are even dragons who give birth to wings and soar in the sky.

All the races inhabit the borderlands, and the beliefs are mixed.

There are those who believe in the stars of the sky, those who believe in the spirit of rivers, those who believe in thunder and lightning, those who believe in poisonous fog, and those who believe in immortality.

There are all kinds of faiths.

Of course, in that chaotic era, all races had no concept of beauty and ugliness.

The Crucible Blessing treats every living being equally, whether they believe in themselves or not.

They will be equally given birth, growth, and death.

As a result, during the Crucible Age of the Junction, all species had a collective name - the Crucible Hundred Phases.

Among them, the original inhabitants of the Eternal City - the rare people.

It is also a part of the hundred phases of the furnace.

They have dark silver skin and a Terran complexion.

Believing in the power of the stars, the rare people gradually formed their own civilization and built magnificent buildings by studying the mysteries of the starry sky.

It is the highest in the Crucible Hundred Phases of the Crucible, and the civilization is also developing wildly at this moment.

Therefore, after the "Crucible Age" of the ancient period.

In its place, there is the "Star Age" that the rarers believe in

And just when everything is calm and peaceful.

An extraterrestrial meteor named Elden fell.

The outer god of the Supreme Will also officially appeared, kicking off a great change that has not changed for thousands of years in the borderlands.

The Supreme Will sows the Golden Tree in the Junction and spreads its "Golden Law" everywhere.

Different from the previous Crucible Era where everything coexisted.

The advent of the Golden Law is full of tyrannical exclusivity.

The interpretation of 'those who believe in me live, and those who betray me die' is interpreted to the extreme.

It also caused great dissatisfaction among the Hundred Phases of the Crucible race.

The first thing to bear the brunt of is the outbreak of contradictions between the rare people and them.

But the power of gold is developing too quickly.

The Golden Law has a self-circulating way of growing.

That is, those who believe in the Golden Law are born from under the cover of the Golden Tree, receive the blessing of Lu En to grow, and return to the tree after death, and the power returns to the Golden Tree.

Complete a self-loop.

This method of only entering and not leaving makes the Golden Law expand its power by a few points for every additional believer.

Rare people who are invincible to the supreme will.

began to plot a rebellion.

Created a weapon capable of hunting down the forces of gold, the Hunting Finger Knife.

This weapon contains the essence of the most powerful power of the rare, the death of destiny.

The gold clan who died in the hands of this weapon will strip the gold tree of its self-circulation.

That is, they are still born from under the Golden Tree →→ receive the blessing of Lu to grow→→ but after death, they cannot return to the tree, but die naturally and dissipate in the junction, becoming the growth nutrients of the Furnace Hundred Phases→→ resulting in the power cannot be recovered by the Golden Tree.

In this way, the expansion of gold power can be prevented from the roots.

It is a weapon that even the supreme will can fear.

In order to avoid the power of 'Death of Destiny' from causing trouble.

The supreme will summons extraterrestrial meteors to the borderlands, smashing the Eternal City into the ground with unmistaken precision, sealing all the rare races to the underground world, and never seeing the light of day.

Hunting the Finger Knife, and thus being sealed forever.

The task that Lani entrusted to the Fading One was to enter the Eternal City and find the Finger Hunting Knife.

"So far, we can see that Lani's wife is very ambitious, when the other demigods want to seize power, reintegrate the Elden Ring, and dominate the borderlands."

"Our Lani wife is full of thoughts about how to kill the projection of the Supreme Will in the Junction and completely erase the Elden Ring from this world."

"When our Hammer takes back the Hunting Finger Knife and gives it to Rani, Rani will give us an engagement ring and a dowry, the Darkmoon Greatsword."

"This soft rice is indeed fragrant, with the ring, we can propose to our wife, this is a real engagement, and now we have really become our real wife."

"But I also ask you to dress as if you are a person as much as possible during the cutscene where you put a ring on your wife." Madoka smiled and continued.

"It is not difficult for us to find that in the scene of proposing to his wife, Lani's doppelganger doppelganger was sitting next to Erzhi's corpse, and Erzhi had been hunted by Lani with a finger knife at this time."

"As we all know, the presence of the two fingers in the Junction is very special, they are not the enemy's enemies of the player, but they are not allies of the player. Its role is merely a microphone of supreme will, and you can understand it as an antenna that receives signals. ”

"However, after all, the supreme will is only an alien deity, and language is not connected to the life of the borderland, so the general antenna will be equipped with an old woman who interprets the fingers and transforms the words that the residents of the border can understand, so as to spread the gospel of the supreme will."

"But Lani can possess one and two fingers alone, and can communicate with the supreme will."

"It is not difficult to see that Lani's identity is extremely special."

"But we'll talk about that later, and let's talk about how the Golden Tree has been held up step by step to where it is today."

After summoning a meteor to seal the rare people of the Eternal City into the underworld.

The Supreme Will also realized that it would definitely not work to take action yourself every time.

As an external god, he is busy with affairs, and he has to do it himself in a small junction, which is too godhead.

Therefore, He directly appointed a fine man among the rare races with superior intelligence, the Eternal Queen Marika.

as your own successor.

The price is that the few who are willing to submit to the Golden Law will be able to return to life on the surface.

"Regarding Marika's origin, the details given in the game are too vague and obscure, and it may depend on whether the follow-up number one player will come up with DLC to complete the story line." Madoka speculated.

"But we can analyze some content through some small details."

"In the game, the player will encounter two small sculptures that are somewhat similar."

"One is called the Mark Gathering and the other is called the Marika Wedge."

"The two sculptures have different roles in the game, one is to summon friends, and the other is to be a temporary blessing point, and after death, you can directly resurrect from the Marika Wedge."

"But if you look closely at the shape of the statues, you will see that the characters carved from both statues are Maryka."

One is the image of being crucified, arms facing up. When praying to release the Golden Law in the game, the player will face up with their arms up, as if praising the Golden Law. ”

"And the Marika Wedge, with both arms cut off, is a bit like a severed arm Venus. But if we look closely, we can see that even if her arms are cut off, you can see that Marika on the statue has her arms down. ”

"Judging from the current rigor of Elden Ring, any detail set up by Player One has its purpose, and there will definitely not be a statue of a broken arm placed here for no reason."

"Therefore, I speculate that the Marika with her arms facing upwards and nailed to the arc ring is the Marika after the surrender."

"And Marika with a broken arm is Marika who led the rare people to conflict with the supreme will during the period before returning to obedience."

"It's just that at that time she wasn't called Marika, but had another name - the Queen of Night-Eyed Eyes."

"Because, the posture with the arms facing down is the posture of releasing the death of fate, which we can see some clues in the release of some skills related to black flames that we get later in the game."

"Therefore, when Marika is submitted, only the upward-facing arm statue remains, and the arm-down Marika wedge stone will be cut off."

"It's also like a warning to Marika from the Supreme Will."

After Xiaoyuan's voice fell, the audience floated over the 'slot', 'So thin? 'Good fellow, I didn't even notice it before...... So that's it! Wait for the barrage of sudden realization.

And Madoka's video continues.

After the Supreme Will appointed Marika as her successor.

The embodiment of the Golden Law, the Elden Ring, was granted to Marika.

As a result, she possessed a divinity second only to the Supreme Will, and thus took the place of the Supreme Will to control the entire Junction.

In short, Marika became the vessel of the Elden Ring.

However, it is not enough to have a god-man.

Want the Golden Law to be passed down from generation to generation.

It is necessary to pass on the family lineage, and the son inherits the father's business.

Therefore, it is necessary to find a king to unite with his own god-man.

Gave birth to an heir.

Therefore, Queen Malika chose a warrior leader from the Savages, Horai Lu.

Crowned him as the first King of Elden and became his companion.

In exchange, the barbarian warrior Hora Lu changed his name to Godfrey.

And suppressed the beastly nature in his body, and made an oath to the gold, to unify the borderlands, so that the people of the whole land could enjoy peace under the rule of the golden law.

After taking the oath, Godfrey naturally began to pledge his allegiance as a sign of loyalty.

He married Marika and gave birth to three children.

He led his troops and began a long journey.

There are only two things that can intimidate the growth of the Golden Tree in the Junction.

In the same way, it is the "death of destiny" controlled by the rare man

The other comes from a giant flame crucible guarded by the Snow Mountain Giants, which burns with the "Ash Extinguishing Fire"

Destiny Death rejects the deceased from the root layer to submit to the Golden Tree, diluting the Golden Tree's power.

The Ash Fire can directly incinerate the Golden Tree, releasing the power of suppressing the Golden Tree from the surface.

The Rare Humans have been resolved.

Then Godrei's first goal was to attack the snow-capped mountains located northeast of the royal city.

After the fall of the Snow Mountain, Godfrey was a natural warrior, and immediately after the victory, he went south and began to attack the other races.

And the goddess Marika, who then rushed to the snowy mountains to inspect the work, found that the flames in the crucible could not be extinguished.

He left behind the last giant of the Giant Clan, and made a curse to guard the flames here forever, and no outsiders were allowed to approach the snow-capped mountain for half a step.

And just when Godfrey won all the way, almost all the races that were dissatisfied with the power of gold.

However, he was suddenly banished by Marika and expelled from the borderlands.

Godre, who had lost his blessing, and his generals were like people who had lost their lights in the fog, and they could no longer see the direction of their homecoming.

So he became one of the first faders, wandering outside the borderlands.

Subsequently, Marika tied the knot with one of the best generals in the royal city, "Red-Haired" Radagon.

According to the Golden Law.

If you want to become a king, you must marry a man of God who is appointed by the supreme will.

Thus, Radagaon also became the second king of Elden in the true sense of the word.

"Regarding the identity of Radagon , in fact, many friends should have found the exact answer from the game."

"In front of a statue of Radagaon in the royal city, use the "principle of regression" to pray to it, and the statue of Radagaon will become a statue of Marika."

"And the player will see the official advice left by the number one player - Radagon is Marika!"

"But why Radagaon suddenly appeared, that's the biggest doubt at the moment."

"Through the details of some of the props, including the statue of the severed arm I just mentioned, it's not difficult to know that the Supreme Will has always been on guard against Marika."

The so-called people who are not of my race will have different hearts.

Therefore, choosing Marika to become a god-man is nothing more than a delaying tactic of the supreme will.

First, choosing your rare queen's own queen to be my god's spokesperson can soothe the feelings of the rare people who have been driven into the ground.

Rare people are also people, and rare lives are expensive!

Rare people who perform well, but they have the opportunity to get a gold card and return to the ground to enjoy generous benefits.

Second, at that time, there were many races in the border area, and rare people were just one of the big troubles.

If the fight continues, other races are also eyeing the sidelines, and it is difficult for the golden power to expand rapidly.

Therefore, the Supreme Will chose to temporarily reconcile with the Rare Race.

But he didn't quite recognize Marika as a god-man.

After turning it into its own vessel of the law.

Regardless of whether Marika has evil thoughts in her heart or not, but she has done things for the Supreme Will for so long, there will always be a trace of disobedience in her heart, which is the so-called sense of identification with the Golden Law.

Although this sense of identity is subtle, it is keenly perceived by the Supreme Will.

Seeing that the first generation of the Ring King, Ge Frei, is about to sweep away the Liuhe and sweep the Eight Desolations, the basic plate of the golden power has been stabilized.

The Supreme Will suddenly realized that the time was ripe, so from Marika's body, another more perfect personality was forged - Radagaon.

The Golden Law の loyal dog also officially debuted.

The loyal dog is completely obedient to the Golden Rule, and has no human emotions of its own, and is the purest vessel.

Although Marika and Radagaon are one, they have their own separate personalities.

"There's a very delicate issue here." After talking about Radagaon, Madoka threw out a paragraph of her own opinion.

"As we mentioned just now, the first generation of Godfrey killed all the way when he was fighting in the south and the north."

"First take down the snow-capped mountains northeast of the royal city, and then go south to start fighting the predecessor of Stonewell City, Storm City."

"But those of you who have played the game know the map of the Junction, and from the royal city to Stonewell, there will be a Lyenia interspersed in between."

"The order of our normal play is also that we pass Stonewell, then go all the way north to Lienia, and after Lienia, we can reach the royal city."

"Then here's the problem."

"Why is a big Kalia royal family stuck in the middle of the road, and has always refused to obey the Golden Law, why did Godfrey skip this place and not fight? Instead, he went straight south to fight Stonewell, and then ran to Gailid in the east? ”

"There is no obvious answer in the game, but my personal guess is that the Supreme Will has already begun to build momentum for Radagaon at this time."

"If you want to become a king, you must have a record that can convince the public."

"Therefore, the Supreme Will deliberately left such an area of the Kalia royal family as a part, and did not let Godfrey touch it, but handed it over to Radagaon to attack."

"After winning the battle, Ladagan chose to marry Renara of the royal family and directly regain another piece of power, so that the record will be there, and it will pave the way for him to become a king in the future."

"At this point, we can find that the game of supreme will is also quite exquisite."

"Why is it a game of chess played by the supreme will?"

"Because at the moment of Godfrey's exile, Radagon abandoned his family and went straight to the royal city, choosing to marry Marika and have children, and ascended the throne as king, becoming the second generation of the King of the Ring."

"And he married Marika and gave birth to two sons: Michaela and Malenia."

"But this kind of self-inbreeding setting, I can only sigh that the designer is really brainy, I can't think of a broken head at present, how can the same person produce and self-breed, and use his own seed to get pregnant......"

"The gods can really do things that humans can't think of......

"But in any case, the two siblings, Michaela and Maleia, were born smoothly, the junction was unified, and the loyal dog Ladagan was also preparing to seize power step by step according to the will of the Supreme Will, and everything seemed to be under the control of the Supreme Will."

"At this time, it is also the peak moment of the golden power, and for the sake of subsequent understanding, we will call it the "golden era" under the golden rule of law"

Most of the plot is present in the game.

A small part of it was due to the rhythm and length, and I made minor adjustments.

None of the earlier Elder Dragons and the original Golden Tree taking on a furnace-like red profile are mentioned in the book.

Because these don't really have much to do with the main story, like the Storm Ancient King, it's more like some settings thrown out by FS in order to make up for the view of the world (it may be improved in the DLC, but now the DLC is not out, and many details are just mentioned and not followed)

Therefore, I can't mention it all here, and I can't really write it all one by one, and I really can't finish it.

If there are some details missing, you deep players can point them out, and I will correct them as soon as possible if the changes do not affect the original reading.
