    I suggest everyone takes a look at this vid, has spoilers but a lot of lore explanation + newly released, japanese only art book. Praise the Sun

    I'm sure it could be acquired on Amazon or eBay, though.

    He should open it when he's talking... I have to strain to understand what he's saying sometimes.

    I think that is chance, the interview is actually a translation from the artbook from what I understand and he does disclaimer it.

    I assume we will know more when someone can do a more complete translation of that new artbook

    ***edit**
    Not to mention the information he discusses is not really april fools esque material, its already been fairly well established through the narrative, unlike some of the other theories I have heard of the son of chaos. I like especially that he mentions something like "Just look at ceaseless" he looks really pathetic, he looks terribly sad and agonized, that is what always supported him as the son in my eyes. And the other stuff was interesting too, logan and titt-- i mean gwynevern trivia.

    He hasn't messed with us thus far and I can't see what he would have to gain fromdoing so.

    A laugh? He has a pretty strong following and I don't think he'd jeopardise it on something as stupid as an April Fools joke.

    The info seemed real enough to me, much like his previous lore vids, and I have watched all of them, along with the DkS lore he put forth in it.

    Personally I am really sad to hear all the things that were removed from the game. Such as the wandering black knights :C

    I guess this artbook also pretty much states that laurentius was meant to be a dragon snack. Making gaping a .. her? I wonder why a channeler hangs out there, does seath have anything to gain by protecting the dragon? Stopping people from getting to the 2nd bell, I guess he has goons in the forest too to stop people from going in that way.

    I guess it's pretty normal, qhen you're developing a game, having a lot of things to change/remove in the process, while others are added.

    There are games (Xenoblade Chronicles for example) with whole levels removed.

    I have a hard time accepting he is simply protecting dragons, since seath turned on his own kind and slaughtered them some years ago. It just goes against his... established badassness.
