I'm glad to announce a new lore video, which I plan to release on Sunday, July 6. I had originally drafted parts of this essay about two years ago but never found a good opportunity to finalize it.
"The Original Sin" explores many narrative and environmental details in and around Byrgenwerth that, to the best of my knowledge, haven't been discussed in great detail in the lore community. I believe this subtext helps to contextualize the actions of the Byrgenwerth scholars to some extent. At only 15 minutes, this is a shorter project, but I hope you'll enjoy it nonetheless.
For now, my Gehrman video is on the back burner. I have two other ideas that are slowly coming together, though. Maybe those will eventually see the light of day.

I'm slowly working on a Bite-Sized Bloodborne piece about our dapper friend Gehrman. Anticipated release date is somewhere between June and....2028? I kid, but it's just been incredibly busy. Hopefully I'll have the time to mess with it in the next few months. I figure I need to do something in honor of Bloodborne's 10th anniversary. If you have any other suggested topics, I'm always happy to hear them.

The next installment of the Laurence lore series is about three weeks away. In the meantime, a question: Would you have any interest in me doing a Bloodborne lore-through? There’s a glut of that stuff already, but I’m wondering if there’s a way to put a spin on the lore-through formula.

Excited to share that this video is in progress and should be out in the next few weeks! There are some fascinating new discoveries about Laurence that I hope you'll enjoy.
Because this video is already on pace to exceed 55 minutes, I'm considering breaking it up into two installments and doing a Part 3. Let me know if you have a preference.
