Hi all! Thanks for all of your support -- we're posting the first of, hopefully, 10 patreon episodes this month, starting with an exploration of the map function in Elden Ring and the way that its signification might inform our understanding of political speech.

I think this helps me think about how I kinda felt about the map in the game. The map to me always felt like it was of a piece with the rest of the games—that, despite how opaque the worlds are at first, FromSoft's other games are rational and "legible" and the map serves to rationalize or affix all those affective charges that we get from the game. I don't know that having a map in Elden Ring is sanding the edges off something when I'm already doing the same with my own mental maps. And I get this odd feeling now, having played all of these, wondering about how much of the blase attitude I have towards Elden Ring is because I know before going into them now that these worlds are imminently knowable
