    Speculation on what this is? Is it the bombers talking about it? Or will they have special guests talking about it? What will they be talking about? Is it new info they are breaking? What is this!

    Patrick got in touch with VaatiVidya on twitter. I don't know whether that is for an article he is planning on writing or for this. Either way I'm looking forward to what ever it is.

    Edit: I should clarify for anyone who doesn't know. Vaati is a guy on youtube who talks alot about the lore of the Souls series.

    My guess would be that it's Vinny, Patrick and Brad talking about what they already know about Dark Souls 2 and speculating on things that might be in the game or what they hope is in the game.

    I think there was a preview event recently. I'm guessing it will be them going over the footage they got from the event and talking about it.

    That actually has me interested in this feature. Definitely much more so than the alternatives.

    check the top of the page. The countdown for it is up.

    I've noticed that stuff disappears from the Coming Up section once the countdown hits a certain threshold.

    Mmm, yeah, that actually sounds really interesting if they can get him. EpicNameBro would be another one that'd be nice to have, but there might be a few issues, being that he actually knows the game, probably, better than anyone else right now.

    ENB is always a get, but he's in Japan and scheduling a skype chat would probably be a lot harder than getting Vaat. Not that he's less of a get; I think Vaati has better "camera" presence than ENB does. Bro tends to ramble quite a bit while Vaati is succinct and to the point.

    Oh, that would be great. I've been watching a bunch of his videos and discussions about DS2 lately.

    If it's just the GB crew talking about DS2, I don't think it's gonna be interesting because they barely know anything about the lore and from what I can tell, haven't been keeping up with DS2 news to keep it a surprise.

    Brad and Vinny confirmed they played Dark Souls 2. But they can't talk about it until tomorrow, hence the show tomorrow.

    Yeah, and it sounds like they will rope Rorie into the stream tomorrow too, to talk all things Dark Souls.

    @benderunit22: Since none of them seems to care about the lore, I think it'll be more about the mechanics etc. That still holds if they get another person in on the stream.

    That is literally the worst most boring uneventful pointless stupid discussion they will probably have, and now my excitement has deflated.

    @oldirtybearon: That's personally what I care about. Love the Souls games, never cared much about the lore/story. It's pure gameplay for me.

    Thats cool they got an extended play with it. The show should be good tomorrow. Looking forwarding to hearing what they have to say about it. I've been avoiding everything about the game to go in completely fresh/new. But I will listen to what they have to say about it.

    The main thing with ENB is that he's under an embargo since he already beat Dark Souls 2 and he's involved in writing the guide for it. Vaati is fine so I'm curious to see what kind of write up Patrick will have.

    Yeah, being a fan of ENB, I'm actually really bummed that he already knows the ins and outs of that game. Part of why I liked his channel is because all the discoveries he made in the early days of Dark Souls. Now he already knows everything and has written it down in the guide, so like what's the point in watching his channel anymore?

    @elixirbronze: Well I mean you could play through the game before looking at videos walkthroughs of it, then whatever he makes is perfectly fine and interesting.

    There's plenty of things to discover and nobody learned the lore of Dark Souls the first time through. There will be plenty of discussion on his channel I'm sure.

    Yeah, that was what i was talking about. Vaati and ENB should have similar timezones, since i believe Vaati is from Sydney, the difference between there and Japan is 2-3 hours, depending on daylight savings. But yeah, since he did the guide thing i dont' think he's in a position to really talk, and getting him when he can't say anything but knows everything is just really awkward.

    sorry for derailing your conversation duders, but I still can't believe that a guy from youtube (!) with a username 'EpicNameBro' (!!) is actually a pretty awesome person. it's mind blowing and i think we should all stop whatever we're doing and just appreciate that for a moment :D

    So, having never played either Demon Souls or Dark Souls, I thought it'd make perfect sense to pre-order Dark Soul II.

    Let's do this.

    @jchenderson: I watched all of Load Our Last Souls and read up on the lore so I feel like i'm fairly equipped to go into DSII. We'll see about going back to the last two games...one step at a time!

    I don't know why, but I'm in the mood for a challenge...a real fucking challenge.
