Connor Barclay In addition, note how he doesn't talk about blood at all. This would imply that he followed Master Willem's teachings, regarding insight as the way forward instead of blood. For the same reason, he isn't part of the Healing Church, making him as close to an atheist as possible in a game where gods are literally visible. A second thing to note is his face 1) never moves but has its mouth open, and 2) is really beat up. I don't actually know if Bloodborne NPCs normally look like they're talking, though I'd guess not, but their mouths are certainly normally closed. So, my theory from this is that Patches was once human, and someone, possibly Amygdala, killed him, decapitated him, then resurrected him with his head grafted to a spider.

I like to think of the reason patches survived so much longer than everyone else is because of his big difference with the rest of the cast in demon souls and dark souls. Solaire wants to find his own personal sun, and when he does, he goes nuts. Big hat Logan wants to learn more magic, and when he does, he goes nuts. Etc etc. Every character has a goal, including patches. Patches wants to own everything he can get his hands on. Unlike everyone else's goal, patches will never achieve his, and it's the only thing keeping him sane. Edit: I've honestly got a theory I like more now. Patches' goal is to fuck with the player and make them give up on life. If you keep playing, he never succeeds, but if you give up, he goes hollow. The only thing keeping Patches alive is you, which is why, at the end of the world in dark souls 3, it's just you and him, side by side

Especially considering they conduct Inquisitions, carry spiked weapons to kill people with, beat people over the head with Bibles (as evident in DS3), use the breaking wheel (look at the Undead Settlement in DS3), they kill Undead and alleged "heretics" on their "Undead hunts". Allfather Lloyd is a charlatan who is pushing his agenda of greed, desire, power, and bloodlust. This is why the Way of White is so evil. And this is why Patches hates the Way of White. As for why Patches hates the clerics in Demon's Souls.... it's implied that Magic/Hexes come from the same source (the Old One), and Saint Urbain when referring to God... isn't really referring to God but.... The Old One. Patches knows what's up with the crooked clerics, the organized religion that's a total mess more often than not. All the more reason I like Patches. A snarky agnostic/atheist who doesn't give a fuck about what the gods want, or what the clerics want. Man should forge his own destiny.

Fun fact: A "tonsil stone" in its most typical usage is the name for the small, hard bits of plaque than can get caught in the folds of the tonsils. They typically become more common when the tonsils are diseased, in which state they also emit a mucousy pus not unlike the poison that Amygdala's head lets out. So Amygdala's name is a pretty cool pun. He is at once a harbinger of disease for his relation to tonsils, a bringer of knowledge because of his relation to the brain, but also a horror because the part of the brain that he refers to is the brain's fear/panic center.

Maybe the reason Patches hates clerics is because his religion is considered heretic among the way of the white. Not saying he worships Amygdala in Dark Souls, but perhaps he has his own deity.

A huge clue was missed here. When he says that he is to leave for a new God, unless you take the plunge... He is single handedly manipulating you into becoming a God. Why look for greener grass when you can just make your own grass greener? He pushes you on to make that life changing decision just for the sake of spawning a new God. Amygdala was hands down the only God like being in the entire game that lacked a primal urge to kill. The wet nurse, the pthumerian queen, the moon presence, rom, all of them are fragments of life at best. More like ghosts in action only because they seem to only have one feeling that leads them to only one goal. Amygdala seems to just be a resident of the dream. He lives off of stray players. He sees us as nothing more than nourishment only because we are to blind to see him. I mean really though, just looking at him induces instant frenzy most of the time. Why would he bother to attempt communication? And when you finally encounter him, you are making a Front on his personal territory. Patches went down into the catacombs to see the Queen. But she was mind bent by her pain and misery. On his way back out, he finds you. Suddenly it should only be so clear to him. You Must be his new God! So many beings of the infinite have fallen to you! You are superior in every way! Now take my help and go kill the sorry, bloody queen!then.. Face the moon itself and surpass yourself! Ascend to the status of a God! Become the corner stone to your own existence!! It's actually very well played out. But why make you a God? Does he just think you worthy? Maybe he has alternate motives... I mean this is Patches we are talking about. What does everyone else think? Let me know! 😄

Maybe amygdala was once a hunter, guided (or tricked) by patches into becoming a great one. I'm not really sure, cuz my theory does need some work.

I actually told him I wasn't mad at him after he asked if I was, but only because I thought that could've been the best followed up by the words. "I pity you, fool." if we were in a Mass Effect game. Still, he is more of the type of the idiotic spider. Always sewing webs, trying to catch a big number of flies, but then suddenly, a fly that's smarter than him, comes and tears his web apart, after which, as we've seen in Bloodborne, he wanders to another place and builds another web. Funny thing is, though it might be only me, but I actually heard some slight surprise in his voice as I told him I wasn't thinking ill of him. Guess he was expecting his usual 'I'mma kill you now, bitch!' and the fact that I said "Naw, we're good." basically surprised, confused and somewhat cheered him up a bit. Guess he could be kinda lonely sometimes too. Serves him right, don't take me wrong, he's an areogant little dipsh*t, who seriously deserves a good beating, but from my point of view, I pity him.

Love your lore videos on Bloodborne. Condensing everything into a simple video with some light humor to break it up is genius! Can't wait for more!

It's been awhile since I played Bloodborne, but I remember that there were other spiders with human heads. I think they were in the Nightmare of Mensis. Other than spiders being connected to Byrgenwerth, I can't place their symbolic significance.

The thing that pisses me off the most when the Amygdala sends you to the Nightmare Frontier, is that Patches isn't laughing in a "psycho manner", he is laughing in a "sucks to be you manner"

the funny thing is he actually redeems himself in Dark Souls 3

Could Patches' voice actor sound any more like a disingenuous little weasel? Excellent casting choice!

Patches was also in Armored Core which is another From software game, same with the Ornstein helmet and Moonlight great sword which are all things that appear in almost every From software game

In my first playthrough of bloodborne, when I saw him the first time I got really creeped out by him and immediately killed him on instinct and then I felt like I made a mistake when he had dialog after death

I killed him because I assumed he was an enemy being a spider and all

This is probably the most meta character in the soulsborne series. He punishes players for their greed, both new and expirienced. New players don't suspect his betrayal and expirienced players don't kill him is because we know he sells good shit.

Patches sudden devotion and his body are both nicely explained with yhe aquisition of insight. Like rom, and several students in mergos loft, he changed by learning enough about the great ones.

Cant wait to see him again in Elden Ring.

Your lore videos are great!

A quick question, when Patches says "sooner still... if you where to take the leap" is this a vague foreshadowing of you, the hunter, becoming a infant old one? or is it intended as a leap into the chalice dungeons?

Is Patches really a more expensive vendor in Demon's Souls? His healing items were actually cheaper than Graverobber Blige's, iirc. Also a reliable source of Shards of Archstone (although those were admittedly quite expensive, especially since Evacuate was an easy miracle to learn, but I digress).

Fuck yeah man, keep turning these out. Look's like you're doing great!

That tonsil kinda reminds me of the behelit in berserk. I'm not 100% sure, but i think the behelit is always fated to find you, even if you dispose of it. The main thing that made me think of that was the mention of a "godhead" granting you strength in the description. Pretty neat. Loved the vid, learned a lot.

It's noteworthy that in the nightmare frontier in BB, the two NPC hunters you fight are Church hunters. One is in the black church set, and the other in the Yharnam set, which was issued to Yharnamites by Ludwig the holy blade, a church hunter. Which means he's likely trapped them both in the frontier. Being church hunters, I'd say they're at least affiliated with the in game clergy.

A question you should have asked is why he hates clerics in all of the souls games, but worships Amygdala in Bloodborne

Great work Fungo!

Love these videos . You do such a good job. Very entertaining . Thanks.

Awesome lore video. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going take take a +9 cannon with some bone marrow ash to dear old patches' face!! (Don't care if he's a merchant later on this is personal)

Definitely cant have that fun in DS, haha.

I didn't get pushed off the cliff nor did I kill amygdala, and I met him and he still said that

Great video! Great analysis on everything as always! Thanks!!!!

I love how his tricks get better over the course of the games

Patches the hyena, the spider, the unbreakable

So... What if Dark souls was an successor of the bad ending from demons souls And Bloodborne an successor of the good ending?

davirazor you're thinking too hard. Wait until we find out about Dark Souls 3, which has been confirmed. Maybe, in the 3rd Souls game we can break the cycle of undead. We shall see soon enough.

davirazor A really good theory I came across ties in these games with King's Field; similar to the Legend of Zelda timeline. In KF1 you play as John Alfred Forester, he eventually has to fight a giant tree-like monster as the final boss, if he fails the tree will grow into what we know as The Old One. In KF2 you play as Alexander Thornton Regginis, his quest is to defeat the black dragon Guyra. If he fails, Guyra will doom the world and will eventually allow the abominations of Bloodborne to arrive. In KF3 you play as Austin Lyle Forester, his quest is to defeat the white dragon Seath. If he fails, Seath will transform the world into a land of grey crags, however he loses much of his power and immortality.

Victor Otero I'm from the future. we got the same "never ending cycle" bullshit.

Love your videos man, keep it up! :)

At least in each game it's your first time meeting Patches, so you're not being a complete fool by trusting him.

I always thought patches saying its a prank bro after everytime he kicks someone down

Had no idea he was an approachable NPC. I ended up in the room behind him and freaked out when I realised there was a spider with a man's head attached to the door. So I fired some throwing knives and then killed it. Way too creepy looking to allow it to live. Had no idea it was Patches.

I can't wait to find him on Elden Ring. Edit: Gotta admit, the VA makes a great job.

I wouldn't mind a lore video that describes Patches in all of his appearances, this one doesn't include DS3, sadly, but still very well made.

patches most likely turned into a spider once he became a believer (prophet?) of amygdala, as amygdala shows spider-like qualities. he most likely was a student of mensis as well, as that's where he is found for the most part later on, and doesn't seem to have any sort of "ascended knowledge" like they wanted in byrgenwerth, but rather, made contact and communion with the great ones, as the students of mensis wanted

Patches is one of the most amazing npcs ... I just freaking love this guy and his voice actor oh my and cheaters too, to bad Chester wasn't in bb I really wanted to see him in bb :(

Great video!

at the very least in DS3 he kind of helps ya. considering he managed to make an actual friend and then makes a friend out of you when he looses his memory when hes about to go hollow. he swears up and down that he will not forget the friendship no matter what kind of person he turns out to be once he gets his memory back. and while he still kicks you down in a hole, its exactly where you need to go so its more of an assist in that situation.

If the tonsil stone has weird gravity that doesn't let you get rid of it how does patches give it to you in the first place? :P

when i got to the other side of the door i had never talked to him before, so i was like wtf is this lil shit talking about!?

Watching this in 2018 because I been playing bloodborne in 2017 into 2018 and it’s still amazing 😍

im glad it sounds like the VO has a lot of fun with this role

Patches might send you to Dan-gyeros areas.

Good friend my ass!!! I sending him flying with Black knight greatsword in ds3.

I've always thought that there should be more videos about this shady character. Bless you, kind sir! You have have bestowed enlightenment upon me!

In Shrine of Storms I killed his ass once he kicked me into the pit.
