To give you some hope (or maybe just copium) I think he’s trying to make sure he fully fleshes out his world before finishing the series. He evidently takes inspiration from Tolkien and understands that his life’s work is the world of A song of ice and fire. He seems to want to make sure he has fire and blood, dunk and egg, and his other full world contributions done before finishing his life’s work. I also imagine the bungling of the later seasons of got made him more aware of the necessity of his oversight in future film adaptation, and he has been putting in much more work overseeing hotd than he otherwise would have. Hypothetically, this all allows him to do a better and more complete job in writing the last books before the end of his working life. I’ve also heard it said that his understudy team has an even deeper knowledge of his world than he does, and I have faith that they would be able to finish his creation if he gets past his time of writing. This is all a bunch of conjecture on my part, but I do feel that he is working towards finishing his larger world and ASOIAF is going to be the overall endpoint of that. 13 years is nuts tho, hopefully he’ll get on to it eventually lol

Then we come to it in the game at a point of late stage entropy. The world, the people, the creatures, the gods themselves have been killed, mutilated, warped, deformed or driven to madness. That’s what we play in. An ancient world in which every character has been killed or destroyed in some way.

It’s what makes the soul game’s interesting. It’s always after a big event and the world is usually dying or decaying. So the story you understand is your story but once you actually want to know more there’s a rabbit hole of information that’s connect really well. It’s almost like you in disbelief of what the world used to be like but the evidence is all around you. Even the bosses are usually in bad shape and it makes you wonder what they were in their prime when the world wasn’t decaying or dark souls. It’s a awesome feeling to see something interesting or weird and looking up the lore behind it. Also the facts it not written but people have to piece the story together Is perfect in a way.

Found the guy who didn't play the previous games. Dark Souls 3's final boss wouldn't be top 5 bosses of all time if it wasn't for the fact that it has lore behind it.

Ish, he made 5,000 years worth of history, that history is not linear tho, maybe it was at some point, but the linearity is inaccessible to us. As a result, the 5,000 year is not a really meaningful designation of time. Years are time it takes for the sun to travel around the earth. Does that describe the lands between?

You can really see Martin's influence in the lore especially with the names of various events throughout the game's history like the Night of Black Knives and the fact that the game takes place within the midst of a millenia spanning war fought between multiple parties.

He didn't destory it. He just morphed it into more of what he was thinking.

He doesn't even know about the game. It's literally not a sequel to anything

Mate Elden Ring is basically Dark Souls 4 but worse. Its indistinguishable in its gameplay. Its Dark Souls with spirit summons, a jump button and a horse, and weaker bosses with small counter windows and long combo strings.

Wtf

and what a great jib they did... I'm gonna be playing in about an hour

Thats such a cool way of making worlds. I have to do that for a dnd campaign.

This game is clearly a sequel of ds3, a world born after the dark age seen in the true ending of ringed city... Exactly like bloodborne is the sequel of ashes of ariandel (and ds1 for demon). That's proved by the fact that miyazaki confirmed the connection between déraciné and bloodborne

No, it’s not, I hate that people have this idea when it’s so obviously not true. Miyazaki has said multiple times that all of the series are separate, furthermore, it being a sequel does not even make sense, and completely ignores essential lore details in both series. Also, Miyazaki came out and said that the Bloodborne reference in deracine, was just an Easter egg. Stop spreading false information, it’s a separate world will separate lore and characters.

@@nightrain1121 no, I've read all interviews of miyazaki and he never denied the connections in his games (except for sekiro, where avoided the question for copyright reason). in fact he called the easter eggs about bb in déraciné as little nodes and he said that they exaggerated with them (fueling rumors about bloodborne 2). Moreover in an interview about bloodborne he randomly stated that the game shares a lot of things with painted worlds of dark souls (answering out of context when asked about the interconnection of the map). if you think about what they did with ashes ariandel, where a " "cold, dark, and very gentle place" is painted with the blood of the dark souls, everything is obvious... and ashes of ariandel is a painted world with a culture based on blood, hunters and werewolfs (ds3 ending was already written at the time of bb)

@@untipo. no, clearly you haven’t. Just because these games have similar themes does not mean they are in the same universe. Miyazaki has stated multiple times that he prefers creating new worlds. Besides, the lore just doesn’t match up. Feel free to have your head canon and theories, but stop presenting them as facts.

Something you knew, then forgot, and then are pleased to find out again.

That’s such a sick idea to create a story, I didn’t know that’s how they did it.

I kinda like the idea that Martin was just as in the dark about what he was doing as players are in Souls games.

People don't often talk about it but this is how most high fantasy worlds are shown to us, perfect example is the Lord of the Rings, a part of the story set in the era where pretty much every culture was a shadow of its former glory.

That is a brilliant way of looking at things!

Martin adding wolves to all the royalty and modeling Horah Loux as Tommen The Golden King is absolutely insane, ngl.

Both of them have the capacity to kill everything and everyone you love that's why its a brilliant decision to put them together to bring a lore in.

Thank you!

The amount of artistry in games now is incredible, im glad I was born in a time when I could see this. Out of the millions of years before or after this time, here we are now, how lucky

videos like Tarnished Archeologist’s are what highlights his influence

It's the best writing style honestly when have you played a game where everything important already happened and your story is just picking up the peices and trying to fix it that wasn't a fromsoft game, even armored core is mostly just merc work in a corposcape

I honestly believe GRRM couldn't deliver all the work asked from him on time, and so Miyasaki picked up the rest.

thats cool, i was wondering about this. So you only see his impact through as the background setting

The only thing I could imagine George adding to the game is the Dung Eater.

There is still a lot of Berserk too, the Crystal tears are a direct refrence to Griffiths last tear he shed for Guts.

The story has what I’d call meat

What’s also cool is it gives room for them to make a version where you are IN the events that happened 5,000 years ago

And in doing so he killed another small piece of my soul by not having a release date for winds of winter

Now that I think about it that would be a very fun game to do with friends who are also into world building, one person makes a beautiful amazing mythos and the other and meth dragons.

This is what you hear when you come to mars

Creative way to create a lore

Martin looks like his straight off a fishing boat.

Man will do literally anything to avoid finishing his books 🤣

I love the idea of Martin handing Miyazaki this beautiful Mythos and world meticulously crafted with its own set of politics and Miyazaki just took a sledgehammer to the lore and sprinkled the shattered pieces into the game like puzzle pieces for us to find.

Him putting THE in front, is such a grampa move

It’s always Psychic Trees with GRRM

To be short: he was there to give gravitas for the game. A marketing ploy if you will

This is how every game ends up so good Martin makes the world and Miyazaki destroys it as funny as it may sound it leads to us exploring this lost place and figuring out the lore along the way pretty cool👍

'Yes yes I love the idea but I will be adding a lake that is red and gives you damage if you stand in it, also gonna put a boss in there too'
