#eldenring #funny #fromsoftware - Hry
The messages around the Mimic Tear boss fight are absolutely hilarious. Seeing a bunch of "weak foe ahead" and "pathetic sort ahead" before entering the fog and fighting myself was amazing
If you know what's coming up, unequip everything, have the boss copy you, then reequip everything whilst it fruitlessly tries to punch you to death.
If you go naked the boss goes naked as well. Bare fist fight doing almost no damage is pretty silly
I fought my mimic in my underwear and a twinblade, I genuinely loved that boss fight and the gargoyles just cause of where they take place
@@luketfer nooooo, I absolutely loved the honest matching, with my doppelganger using all the same tactics I'd been using on the last dozen bosses. It was such a joy to die to myself 😁
Saw this on the subreddit (stuck on Radahn atm so I can't get there) but one such message reads "Weak foe ahead, therefore time for introspection."
Patches going back to his own world after being summoned to fight Radahn is still one of the funniest things I've seen.
He just goes "nope" and leaves. LOL
Seriously!? I was wondering where the bugger went off too... that is pretty funny lol
@@ghostderazgriz sometimes he will run away after getting hit once
Other times he won't even bother waiting that long
patches pulls off the “quit game” at the sight of radahn
😂😂😂 I didnt even notice I thought he died to Radahn
@@thefamilymealgaming It even comes with a trademark rude gesture sometimes. And that's why it says "returned to his world" and not that he was killed.
One of the funniest things I’ve seen in Elden Ring is the Jar Cannon description which states that the Jar Cannon was “An Experimental firearm brought to the assault on Volcano Manor, where it was discovered that no one knew how to use it”
by defying physics
But oh boy did we figure it out
Fun fact: the jar cannon was inspired by a real life weapon. I forget what it was called, though....
Just imagine the soldiers being like "heck yeah we have the ultimate weapon" and then they go to camp and everyone is like "did it came with a manual? Where is the safety" 🤣🤣
Oh well another weapon for my jar arsenal
I have to propose for any possible follow-up: Patches’ “nope” moment in Radahn fight, where you summon him, he appears, and then a few seconds later “Patches has returned to his own world”; the copious “dog” messages for literally any animal…right up until you find that npc accompanied by a wolf and find a profusion of messages asking “…horse?”
Lost my shit when I first noticed patches during that fight lmao
turtle friend is dog shaped
@@earlgrey197 Luke actually captured it here! :D
Lol yeah those are pretty funny. I love all the "dog" messages, Andy made a joke about it in his Elden Ring video questioning if the people posting them even know what a dog is.
That is a horse. What are you talking about?
I was repeatedly dying to a boss and so may have been losing my mind a bit, but I did burst out laughing when I touched the summon sign for a character named “John Elden Ring”
Almost sounds like Max0r's choice in character naming.
@@prometheanrebel3838 or Shenpai. She has the tendency to name a lot of her characters John Souls.
You know! John! John elden ring! The titular character!
I've named my guy Shelden Ring
Oh, you mean famous singer and musician Elden John?
I dunno about feeding Torrent apples, but you can feed him berries. You can craft them out of the various Rowa you find about the lands.
I wish we could pet Torrent.
Rowa raisins. And I have it on my quick select pouch just for Torrent
@@LateSleeper Yeah, they're actually useful for those times an attack hits Torrent but not you. He gets a pick-me-up when you drink a flask, but you don't always want to waste a swig. Unfortunately, switching to them in a battle you can't afford to waste healing on is probably also not a great time for selecting the raisins.
Yeah, that's a pretty major mechanic that's surprisingly not well known outside of the hardcore haha
I mean hell, plenty of new people never even find the wondrous physick and all it's many buffs/spirit summons/ashes of war etc haha
Definitely is just the ultimate magnum opus of sekiros fluid combat, Bloodbornes ambiance and worldbuilding with DS1/3 level design and lore
(Taking the dual wielding from DS2, the only thing about it that wasn't janky haha)
The raisins become more critical as the game goes on with mounted combat. I'm not sure how Torrent's HP is calculated, but I think it might be by the player's total level. Regardless, as you go on, the more HP Torrent has and the less likely in a mounted duel it'll be for the player to be instantly knocked off from a big hit. Which means as a duel goes on the cumulative damage from the boss you're fighting has a much greater chance of killing Torrent if you don't heal him up as well with the raisins, because sure you might heal yourself, but it won't heal Torrent when you do.
Oh, fun fact about the Tiny horse: it is named Leonard in the AI files.
The fact he has a name makes it so much better
Leonard, scourge of apples 😂
It's also great that Radahn learned gravity magic so he could still use Leonard whilst he got bigger and not crush him
I’ve seen that name before and didn’t know who they were talking about. I am now delighted
The fact that you've got names like Radahn, Rennala, Rykard, Diallos (h o t), Selvius, etc, and in amongst them... Leonard... It's such an incongruous, old-man name, and I love it
The Tibia Mariner made me burst out laughing when I saw it pop a wheelie on its boat
needd for speed marine boat
same I lost it when the boss suddenly started boating on land.
@@user-ec6kt2fg7m Same, when it teleported I thought, OK its surely moved to a different part of the lake, only to see it pulling wheelies and doughnuts on a grassy knoll.
DEJA VU IVE SWIM IN THIS PLACE BEFORE
Me when I got a "the beast eye quivers" notif in the snow area and I see Tiba rowing in a snowfield 💀
Turtle Pope was probably the funniest thing I ever saw, but the one-two gut punch of a sentient ball trying to kill me was great
I showed my mum a picture of the turtle pope and she didn't stop laughing for five minutes and then asked for me to send her the picture so she could show her friends
Mostly explaining to people things around the turtle pope results in some of the better conversations I've had around the game. It's just so ridiculous and yet, it's just so present in the game that everyone uses the turtle pope point as a directional reference for eastern Liurnia. Like I had a friend playing and was trying to explain how to get to Jarburg to him and "turtle pope" was the natural start point for the directions. Because of course it would be.
@@EverTheFractal That's an S scaling mother right there. Never discard or leave that one.
yep +1 for turtle pope
The sentient balls gave me a good chuckle. Also the rolling goats. And the noble who rolls around in god fat. And the weapon art that turns the player in to Sonic the Hedgehog. There’s a lot of rolling in this game…
I saw a mod that replaced the goats with a model of Sonic XD
THE ROLLING GOATS YES!
The goats around that weapon art get electrified when they roll. Made me laugh when i saw em
Someone make a mod of Uganda Knuckles, stat!
apparently that's an inside joke, the goats roll away from you because you are a powerful foe, just like noobs who spam roll away from bosses in desperation to survive only to get chest slapped
Some of the messages are quite funny. Two of my favorites: I will never get tired of "dog" for any animal that isn't a dog, or the "out of stamina" jokes around stairs.
My favourites are people despairing and doing dramatic emotes whenever there's a dead end with no item instead of putting a warning at the start of the path. It's always hilarious
I've seen "out of stamina" jokes around corpses.
Don't think I've seen a stamina joke in the 170 hours I played
@@jalil2985 I've only seen it once, in front of an already-dead body in/on Mt Gelmir, which was sprawled out on its back as if in exhaustion - that one really got me
I'm apparently still a child because all the "rump" messages will always get at least a smile from me :)
The first time i saw those goats roll around like sonic the hedgehog i nearly fell over laughing.
Not to mention the majestic, powerful Ancestral Spirit… who does the exact same move.
yesss I spent like ten minutes just rolling about with the sheep. 😂
@@enlongjones2394 He does? I would have liked to see that.
I can't get my head why they roll and when they decide to do so.
Is there any meaning to it? 🤔 Who knows. In the end, I bet someone at FromSoft was just playing around with the character model and made it curl up for the lols. It is so random within this very serious game.
@@nls20 I don't know if it's true, but I heard someone say they roll at the first sign of danger as an inside joke about players panic rolling in previous souls games.
I laughed way too hard when I took the portal back to the beginning area and went to grab the Nascent Butterflies, thinking, "ooh, free butterflies!" Only for the cliffside to give way and falling to my death. Simply hilarious 😂
My favorite so far is Miriel, Pastor of Vows. Just seeing him is delightful.
When I met Miriel I kinda squealed and then took a screenshot and sent it to a friend with no context but to say "This is the best game."
We love turtle pope!
@@Arcane_Archer dog pope
All hail the turtle pope
Then you'll love the lecture he gives you if you accidentally hurt him and then talk to him. He's not angry, just disappointed.
10:10 We pause this segment of the show to bring you a PSA: please feed your Torrent some raisins immediately!
You can find Alexander stuck again but you have to get him "slippery" to free him this time
That entire little thing was "they knew". Getting him slippery, giving him multiple hard smacks on his backside... They had fun with this game.
I had to specifically hunt down the merchant in the Siofra River area to get the crafting recipe for the oil pots, because I couldn't find anyone selling them and I hadn't found any just lying around. I knew I needed them to free him the second time.
One of the funniest things I've found in this game are the giant, sentient(?), metal(?) balls that slowly hunt you down and try to crush you flat. In Nokstella, watching a giant ball stalk its way down some stairs and across a small bridge to come kill you is incredibly funny.
You can also stagger it. You can stagger the giant ball
@@EverTheFractal and it's very weak to frostbite! To be fair it's a metal ball, frostbite should work on it.
@@HittingBandy it's actually a mimic
How about the boulder traps?
Previously, Fromsoft has used simple rolling rock traps, and then later the two-way skeleton balls in Dark Souls 3, but Elden Ring really takes the cake. In both Liurnia and Caelid, you can find magic summoning circles that spawn big boulders to crush you, which implies that there are wizards who have nothing better to do with their time than cast Summon Rock all day.
But the best is in the Eternal city of Nokstella. Where you find *sentient boulders with health bars* that deliberately aim at you, and will back up, turn around, and roll at you again the second they get the chance.
It’s boulder traps taken to the absurdist extreme, and I love it.
I do love the boulder enemies in Nokron. It was a blast kiting them into the other enemies, and I didn't have to do a thing
The hilarity when you hide behind a pillar and the boulder can’t get to you. It is a sphere, that tries to do the threatening battle walk of a 1v1 encounter.
The best part is when you realize that the spheres summoned by mages are _the same_ sentient spheres from Nokstella. Those poor giant silver tears.
I once entered a building in Nokron near that one in the stairs, and she appeared on the door like she was peeking at me. I laughed a lot
You can accually get to the wizards summoning boulders by droping down a ledge left of the lift that takes you to Renala
I was entirely unprepared for the coffin in the valiant gargoyle arena. I had trouble finding it in the first place, becoming half convinced the arena was a dead end. And then being familiar with other souls games, i climbed in expecting to be carted away by some other creature. So when the thing started levitating up a waterfall, I actually burst out laughing.
I pressed ∆ while trying to read a message next to the coffin, then cutscene played, I start getting in, shut the lid, it glows red, and I start panicking thinking 'is this some way to give yourself vampirism in the game?! I haven't given informed consent!'
Godrick's mid-battle scream. My friend and I could not stop laughing.
I kept telling my boyfriend "Stop it! This is serious!" with constant grin cus yeah it's kinda funny for some reason lol.
The elongated scream and "BEEEAAAAR WITNESSSSS!" had me laughing haha
I found that horrifying, it's like I could actually feel the energy and adrenaline he needed to cut his arm off. His panting afterwards didn't help either
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah
@@JustAbidTooMuch I also found it pretty freaky, and so did most of the people I know who had seen it. I think it's really interesting how Fromsoft is able to walk the line of funny/horrific so well. It's interesting how some people are disturbed by things that make other people laugh. Says something about human nature, i think.
The rolling goats mentioned often in these comments are funny, but I think the Ash Of War that allows you to mimic them by bleating and rolling at opponents is even more hilarious.
There was also that armour that also allows you to damage enemies while rolling, and those two stacks!
I absolutely love the description of the jellyfish AoW. "A floating spirit that illuminates its surroundings. Prone to tears, the jellyfish girl searches for her distant home. Will bravely spit poison at foes on her summoners behalf. It seems her name is aurelia." It's so hilariously adorable 😂
You end up meeting her sister in the Starcaller Ruins.
I have just 2 spirit summons right now (really early in the game), but I love Aurelia. She was my bestie for tackling Margit, along with Rogier helping me out. I like the wolves for groups of human-sized enemies, but Aurelia is my go-to for anything massive since she can tank damage so well.
The thing I love the most about the mimic veil is, you get it in a chest in a castle, then try it out in the same room and it camouflages you as a.... tree.... indoors...
If you take it off and put it back on, it will change what it turns you into.
Between the rolling goats (specially the lightning variants), the cartwheeling enemies outside Raya Lucaria, and the giant sentient balls I think this is the funniest game from software has ever done
Trap Ahead, Therefore Be Wary of Rolling.
When i saw the froggos cartwheeling my first thought was like "this seems like what i would do to impress my crush"
One of those crazy goats almost knocked me off a ledge. I didn't even know they attacked you. I started panicking when I took damage. :(
I find it kinda sweet that he didn't want to leave his horse behind, although I'd prefer if my face also wasn't being cleaved in half by his huge sword in the process
Radahn is a badass. He has gone mad from fighting Malenia, Blade of Miquela to a standstill. She refused to admit that she was equaled and however and doomed Caelid to the Scarlet Rot in order to try to kill him. He not only survives but maintains the ability to be HOLDING A FALLING STAR FROM HITTING THE PLANET EVEN WHILE INSANE. Man is an absolute legend. Also notice that his legs are amputated.
@@ryanschmidt3319 Not quite. he went mad from being afflicted by the scarlet rot which couldn't kill him but slowly degraded his mind over the years, not from fighting her. I'm pretty sure she was driven mad by the fact she couldn't defeat him though lol.
Also, even though it's specifically mentioned that he devours friend and foe alike, he still doesn't harm his horse!
@@TrashPanda90914 She was the one who used the rot though, it might have taken time but still. It does not matter how slow a poison or disease is the one who gave it to you is still responsible.
@@Arcane_Archer hmmmm doesn't one of his cutscenes kinda show him eating his horse or something?
I'm so glad you showed Li'l Leonard the horse, as I completely missed him in my nine attempts battling Radahn (on account of legging it in to blast him with Rot and then legging it away again as fast as Torrent could carry me). My other LOL moment in that fight was when you summon Patches and he stays for all of two seconds then nopes out of there. Also, deliberately putting no hidden walls in the whole of the first area, then riddling the place with them after that once people have stopped looking for them is classic FromSoft trolling.
My most recent one was hitting a white scarab ball on a bridge, only to have it transform into a giant boss-sized scarab ball and scare the crap out of me!
Have you found the fake FLOORS yet? That one has really messed me up.
Yup, same with the fake ROCK. it challenged my worldview to say the least.
Tibia Mariner! Everything about him, starting from the ominous warning you get from D and his dread inducing soundtrack, compared to when you meet him and he's tootling round with his little boat. Also a second level joke when you think he's a comedy boss... until find him for the third(ish) time in Altus Plateau. And then he very suddenly isn't.
Yeah that Altus fight was . . . whew. It was an upgrade at least.
Still can't believe in a world of monstrosities and magic, one of it's bosses is a dude in a canoe
@@HazeEmry someone here didn't try to mess with Charon in Hades. XD
@@bukojoetheslapsoils8273 fair point, can't believe I forgot about him. I have 250-ish attempts and almost maxed my rank. Aspect of Zeus ftw
The messaging system is, again, absolutely hilarious. This whole concept of not allowing the players to write anything useful and how the community adapts to it brings out the weirdest phrases.
Every single tortouise has at least three messages around it saying "dog". In the german version someone called the penguins "nobles".
Radahn is an absolute legend! Also... Alexander's dialogue after that battle have me serious chills
Is really no one going to mention that one time in the mountaintops of the giants where a massively giant hand just drops on a bird out of nowhere and erases him out of existence? That one had me dying~
I thought it was a really lucky load. Ngl. I just went back to look for it. Super funny shit!
When skeletons rise/spawn they still do that head tap thing with their shield like in Dark Souls III. That also got a chuckle out of me.
Hehe yea, they have to make sure they have their head on right. Its funny.
I was happy that was still in game. I can never get mad about the skeletons because I find the head tap too cute.
My top moment has to be when Patches makes you do his dirty work for him, and still calls you a stingy bastard when you ask for the reward
11:40 if you summon Patches he just nopes out of the Radahn fight after seeing what's going on
definitely a missed "lol moment" HAHAHA
That laughter after getting locked in the dark room with the banished knight.
1. The Raya Lucaria Burger King heads, wearing one makes all cutscenes twice as funny.
2. The Crystaliarians hair. I don't know why but every time I meet one it makes me think of Anna Wintour and I just can't take them seriously.
3. The Item description for the Prisoner Trousers, which takes pains to let you know how much you smell.
I'm kind of shocked that you didn't mention the goats that roll around like a certain blue hedgehog- the first time I saw one I was too busy laughing to realise it was barreling right at me and knocked me off a cliff
That time I avoided the ''obvious'' (and literal) pit fall, and chose to waltz through the nicely lit, "friendly looking" entrance into The Lands Between.
Only learning, ON YOUR PODCAST, that that was the goshdang tutorial!
If I didn't laugh, I'd cry.
Didn't talk to the guy in the chair next to it?
Amazing!! Mild spoilers ahead: There's an excellent late game escalation of the ghost turtles to keep an eye out for-- the tower is called Chelona's, you'll know it when you see it! Also, one of the funniest things for me was in Liurnia at the Church of Vows, where the pastor really exudes a certain tranquil wisdom, speaking of wise beasts.
By the way, you can give Torrent treats! They're raisins, but still, he seems to like em
The turtle puzzles actually go one step further. There's one that reads 'three _great_ wise beasts', and has much larger versions, across a much larger area, one of which is just chilling...20 feet up in the air, with no visible support
The fact that you can lure the Carian Knight from before Rennala's boss chamber out to be squished by the boulder trap had me in absolute stitches, also just the sentient balls from Nokstella in general (as terrifying as they are when they're flattening you at full speed) are hilarious. The one that just descends upon you as the door locks behind it? Peak horror and comedy all rolled into one
Elden Ring is my current comedy of the year. I laughed so hard at the Lightning Ram ash of war
No androids in this game to dream of them, sadly.
Are we really ot going to mention "The Loathsome Dung Eater" and how seriously the narrator says his name at the beginning of the game? Still gives me chuckles XD.
Eh he's maybe kinda funny if you have a third-grader's sense of humour, but then you meet him and you realize he's terrifyingly committed to enacting the worst atrocities he can commit.
I burst out laughing in the radahn fight when he literally turns into a meteor to start phase 2. It's so over the top.
You guys definitely need to mention more traps in this game because fromsoft really know what we're expecting and they still find ways to surprise us
I still wonder if there is going to be an "Unburdened Radahn" fight coming out during the ongoing support that was promised (DLC?). That could make for some amazing comedic setpiece, of absolute ownage of the player, whilst an old horse is casually floating around, being fed floating apples, maybe some floating brushes stroking him. Also, reveal that he is named Leonard with some loving dialoge during the fight.
Radahn is known as the strongest of the demigods after all, he is only the third of them most people will fight because he is:
A) sick with scarlet rot and at the moment actively dying AND not capable of rational thought
B) making himself hover just on top of his way too old and gangly horse
C) literally stopping the stars with his gravity magic, preventing an enourmous asteroid from hitting the planet
So, in essence, he is using the HP, stamina and FP his Great Rune grants him to do nothing but cancel out his extreme handicap.
The silent and barely dressed character Goldmask and all of his strange poses made me chuckle every time I ran into him.
Personally, my favorite part of the Radahn fight is that you can summon patches and when he shows up, he almost IMMEDIATELY returns back to his world. I actually laughed out loud when I noticed this.
The dancing villagers. Was laughing so much I almost didn't kill them.
I've watched Midsommar. That's a nope from me.
@@MsKornkitty I KNEW it felt familiar!
Also, anyone who killed the non-hostile villagers is a monster - the game gives you so few NPCs that aren't hostile, so I absolutely loved coming across a settlement where barely anyone attacked me
My immediate thought went to the Dancing Plague so yea, death to all
@@alexharrison2743 Those dancing ladies killed all the male villagers and were rejoicing after the fact.
I aint saying guilt equals death since nobody's guilt free in this game world, but damn
My favourite death so far was in the juggernaut dungeon right near the start, when I stood right where the thing comes a stop at the top of the slope and laughed at it not being able to reach me -- then it span around and killed me.
Oxtra may have found the giant hands hilarious, but I have a feeling that for those of us out there who played Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time as small children, those hand monsters bring up dark memories of the Wallmasters. Creepiest enemies in the game. That might be a good list video. 7 enemies in video games that fueled our childhood nightmares.
My buddy and I kept thinking Goderick was accidentally chopping his own arm off and it was hilarious.
One of the biggest lols for me was a dragon fight on the bridge in Caelid. After throwing myself at him for what felt like dozens of tries, the boss had the decency to send himself crashing down into oblivion oft the side of the bridge.
The laugh was equal parts relief and hilarity.
Baiting any enemy into falling off a cliff or into an elevator shaft will always be hilarious to me. That or waiting at the top of a ladder for people to climb up before smacking them back down.
I haven't had much opportunity to try cheese any enemies over cliffs yet in this game. I love cheesing the sword master off the cliff in DS3. I usually end up having to leap off as well, but it gets me the uchigatana so easily that it's worth it. Same for getting the giant crystal lizard to roll off the cliff in the beginning. I was impressed that Ellen fought it properly and won.
General Radahn learned Gravity Magic just to maintain the ability to ride with his beloved yet scrawny companion, Leonard.
For more Lols, being asked by raani's small doll if you make a habit of talking to dolls is top tear
How can people say these games are miserable when they have such comedy gold?
And when she insta kills you and tells you you have bad breath xd
Turtle pope deserves an entire dedicated video honestly, seeing him just vibing in his church with his hat on was the peak of my first playthrough
I find it hilarious that one of the main ways to rune farm is tricking a bird into falling off a cliff to its death as it flaps wildly. Comedy gold.
yeah really.... it's like... why even bird if not fly? O-o'
oh, i saw a video by "the spiffing brit" where he farmed those sentient balls by making them roll off a cliff!
@@ericb3157 I can easily beleive that TBH
Radahns meteor attack had me rolling until it had me dead
Man it makes me happy when they upload
Two things had me actually laughing out loud: 1. Setting the giant hands in carian manor on fire (they stop, drop and roll) and the ridiculous Edward scissor hands hawks of Stormveil.
Yeah those flying, wolverine, exploding barrel-throwing bastards. It was funny but I didn’t laugh. I died like 30 times to those.
Me and my kids had a huge laugh the first time we saw one of the sheep pillbug up and roll away. It was so unexpected!
No mention of the rolling goats?!
Also, in Mount Gelmir, I was minding my own business, went to check out a shiny thing near a cliff... and then Patches appears out of nowhere and kicks me off. Into a pit with BASILISKS.
So much angry laughing.
I think my favourite thing is that if you summon Patches to fight Radaan, after a bit he just nopes out of there and unsummons himself.
I couldn't stop laughing when Radahn launched himself like a NASA rocket into the air, dissappeared, and came at me as a flaming meteorite. This is the funniest boss attack I have ever seen.
Ok, moment during my playthrough that made me LOL: I was fighting a fire giant/golem in an area of the capital I got transported to...and the idiot did that charge attack where he drags his weapon across the ground for ages...and ran himself straight off the bridge...! Yay, free runes! (Though tbf this was after I had attempted fighting him a few times, so I never knew he could yeet himself into the void like that!).
I tried to make him do this several times but it never worked.
Lots of large enemies have "leashes" for "their turf", which prevents them from running themselves off platforms they're supposed to be on. You got the golem through the large door, and when he charged the railing wasn't enough for him to stop.
There's a similarish bit in Nokron where you have the high ground on a couple of lesser mimic tears (you're on a different building and would need to jump down & across to them), and if you aggro them before jumping down, they'll run and try fling themselves across the chasm, like those little suicidal lemurs
It's a golem, Fire Giants are a different thing.
I had something similar happen to one of the valiant Gargoyles. Flew right over me and off a water fall
What's even funnier about is Agheel's landing is, judging by the mindless chanting you can hear within the nearby ruins, it seems pretty likely those happy campers were actually performing an occult ritual to summon the dragon. You get what you pray for, I guess.
I figured there was a sacrifice on a stick in the Bonfire..
I think the other hilarious thing about the hands is how they react when set on fire. They roll around like absolute lunatics and it’s so funny seeing them like that
At the top of every insanely long ladder:
"Snake?,
Snake!"
Patches's reaction to you stealing and then beating the stuffing out of him is pretty funny.
I can't bring myself to get mad at the man now. At this point he can't help it. He did kill me the first time, but then I had a better handle on things the 2nd attempt. I wasn't expecting him to be so strong and that spear was annoying. I still did a lot of yelling of "Patches!" during the fight and when my dumb ass got teleported. I couldn't be pissed at him for that either since I did ignore his warning and open the chest anyway. I mean, it teleports the player even if they wait for him to give it to them so it doesn't matter. When I asked him about it I'd thought he was referring to the 1st chest that kicked the fight off, so that was also my own fault for misunderstanding him.
The singing bats in north liurnia…yeah I couldn’t figure out if they were funny or terrifying…a bit of both I think 🙃😅
They sing like angels, but they're one of my most-hated enemies in the game, so each time I hear their operatic humming a little part of me dies
@@alexharrison2743 Ah, I can't wait to find them. I've listened to the whole soundtrack, so if they're singing the track I think they are then I'm looking forward to hearing it in the game. That said, your description also gives me Winter Lantern vibes. Why is it always the singing/humming enemies that are absolutely awful?
The grace in the ruins that sits right below them is a nice place to relax and get away from it all, a great view of Liurnia from Altus and angelic Amana singing to keep you company.
@@Krosstic I was thinking the same thing when I found that place.
"You got lucky, Miyazaki..." is a phrase you should rightfully feel proud of, whoever-wrote-this-script!
Dying to Radahn's phase 2 made me lose it. You can't help but get a good laugh in at how bombastic his second entrance is, even as you're blown to smithereens while watching him hurtling across the sky.
Meeting Miriel, the Turtle Pope the first time was absolutely unexpected wholesomeness.
Yay! Y'all found Kenneth Haight. He doesn't get talked about, I guess because his quest is super short and doesn't appear to have an additions yet, but I actually liked clearing that fort. Didn't die once, surprisingly. Took me an embarrassing amount of time to figure out where he was yelling from. Cleared the enemies below before I realized he was above me.
I was going to chime in with the lore about Radahn's horse, who is also apparently named Leonard, which I love.
I'm just under 11 hours in, but I think I have 2 funny moments. I was attempting to clear out the enemies around that caravan to get the chest on the back of the giant cart and I wasn't doing too badly for once. Well, Torrent got despawned while I was fighting. The knight on horseback had yeeted himself obligingly off the cliff for me, and so I summoned Torrent again to get closer to the caravan to finish wiping out the few remaining enemies. I ended up sitting on an invisible Torrent completely unable to move or do anything. I just sat there for ages before I spontaneously died. Fun. The second time was that poison flower garden nearby by the aforementioned caravan. I was like, oh, poison pollen, that's fine. I did not expect some white lasers coming out of nowhere at me. The hell sort of giant flower summons space lasers a la Ebrietas?!
Another bit was when I finally decided to fight some bears. Took out one easily and was wondering about all the fuss. Saw a bear scratching a tree so I picked a fight with it. Talk about immediate regret. I saw just how massive it was and then just how little damage I dealt it before I decided to nope away from the whole situation.
Today I'm off to help Blaidd with his quest, find Boc for the second time, and then maybe fight that giant eff off dragon in the lake. Although I suspect I won't get there today.
A skeleton walked up behind me and started attacking me for no reason while I was speaking to Kenneth.
I still have no idea where it came from.
@@HanabiraKage Oh dear. That's unfortunate. Was it in his first location or when he's in the fort? I know there are some small enemies under where he's standing on those ruins. I think they're demi-humans or whatever just without the red eyes. I approached from the north and didn't see any skellies around. It does connect to land on the south, so maybe one followed you if you came from that direction. The fort had just small enemies, human soldiers, and that pumpkin head outside.
I'm very curious about a rando skeleton attacking you, so before I continue helping Blaidd I think I'll investigate that area to see if I find any skeletons around. Quite rude of the fellow to attack you while you were mid-conversation, lol.
@@SolaScientia Original location. Might have been a demi-human that followed me up now that you mention it, it was dark (didn't have the lantern yet) and quite a while ago now so my memory's pretty fuzzy on the details.
@@HanabiraKage Ah, that makes sense. I met the guy in daylight. I've actually done very little exploring in the worlds during night. I've either been fighting in a cave/dungeon/etc or I've ended up doing some traveling and then it's light again when I go out into the world.
I really need to find a vendor with the lantern. I have the torch, but I haven't had cause to use it since I've stayed above ground and can see my surroundings fine without it. I've only met 2 vendors: Kale and the vendor down on the shore. I know a lot of players are adopting the practice of killing the vendors to put all their items with the sellers/ladies/whatever they are in Roundtable. As annoying as it might be to travel to different vendors, I'm likely to leave them alive since I try to avoid killing NPCs in these games unless I'm given no choice regarding a specific questline. I mean, I did kill the suspicious beggar in the Forbidden Woods in Bloodborne, but that's because I knew he was a beast in disguise and I decided to pick a fight with him instead of sending him to the false Iosefka.
When you reach Moghwyn palace there's a ton of those frog albinaurics that are non-hostile, so you can use a big AOE attack to nuke them all for massive rune gains
That's my late game farming spot. Got around 1 million runes in about 90 mins
@@brendanwhalen3607 I tried but I kept accidentally running off the lesge after resting at the grace
10:10 rowa fruit can be crafted into rowa raisins, which are an item that heals Torrent specifically by feeding him them. So yes you missed the button that lets you feed Torrent some fruit.
The ability to mix messages into "try finger, but hole", "Fort, Night", the countless messages that hints that there's a hidden path but there isn't and people encouraging you to jump to your death
If you listen the humanoid enemies around Agheel Lake are all talking about/ being reverent towards the dragon.
1. Yura’s dialogue in the mountains of the giants when he screams ‘CHAOS TO THE WORLD’ and we stand there, silent and emotionless.
2. Our second encounter with Alexander when he is stuck in a hole, again. And mid spanking he exclaims ‘I have a terrible feeling about this!’
3. Alexander stuffing his cracked innards with dead bodies to build up his strength, again!
4. Goldmask having a very serious and lore shattering quest-line despite only T-posing and saying nothing to us
5. The whole Lady Tanrith thing after you complete Volcano Manor :o
6. Margit mimicking as an undead just outside the capital before quickly revealing himself (might be more cool than funny)
7. Patches begging for mercy
Also one for the cloudy eye list. The jellyfish and the stars side quest. 🥺
Summoning Patches for Radahnn and watching him nope out after taking one look is the only time Patches has ever put a smile on my face
The rolling goats are one of my favorite bits of randomness, and recently I found Volcano manor and their bizarre telescoping lizard enemies. Stopped me dead in my tracks when I saw that
The Albinaurics kartwheel deserves a standing ovation. Such form
It would be difficult to kill those guys because they're so goofy looking and yet so graceful if they weren't also such dicks about their aggression. I also find the hopping Crystalians to be pretty hilarious in their animations.
There's a wee audio glitch around 11:50 jsyk
“Unless we’ve missed the ‘feed him an apple button’” I’ve spent an embarrassingly large amount of time feeding Torrent raisins. I go out of my way to make him raisins just so I can give him a snack even when his health is full.
When Red Wolf of Radagon pulled out a knife I cried from laughing after yelling "OH SHIT THE DOG'S GOT A KNIFE!"
Inspired writing and delivery.
Definitely worthy of a follow up.
Patches quiting out when you summon him for the Festival is hilarious
Radhan's tiny horse is the most hilarious thing i saw in Elden Ring. I just can't take seriously a enormous and imponent warrior riding around that tini tiny horse :D
Had an enemy ride a horse towards me, but you couldn't see the horse so it looked like he was just gliding about and making snuffing noises like a horse. Laughed so hard I cried and came pretty close to dying because I couldn't see through the tears 😂
The "wise beasts" get even more humorous in one tower further down the story. Hint ::: Ranni path. Think of the impossible.
The rolling herbavores that flee from us in such a manner.
A certain servant kicking the corpse of a boss obsessed with gold.
The turtle pope, the rolling goats and the singing harpies all made me laugh, but my favorite thing in the game so far is the enormous chariots that roll up and down dungeons trying to kill you, they got me so much, but I laughed even harder when i found out they can be destroyed.
Sounds more like you went hollow friend. XD
@@loganhagen6294 did I mention you can ride them as well?
you can kill them? how?
They die?!
@@cer1xo211 its different in each dungeon, I've managed it in 2 of them their each kind of like their own puzzle
11:49 - Patches literally "unsummons" himself and goes home lol. He never fights, he spawns, sees Rhadan murdering people in droves, then leaves haha
The tower puzzle on the Moonlight Altar killed me. One of the "wise beasts" is just doing loop-the-loops in the sky above a spirit spring.
Two world: rolling sheep 🐑 😂
LOLden Ring
Lol true
I didnt knew about the Landsquirtd poison weakness! This is amazing and hilarious. U have delievered as promised - well done
11:44 - That bonus moment when Patches just ditches you in the middle of the fight
During the Renna boss fight I lost my shit when all the little Renna's (or Ranni's?) first appeared. Something about how the first one tries to bite you and looks at you with a face that say 'Yep, I'm the boss'.
When Patches peaces out at the first sight of Radahn. I don't blame you buddy.
I love the Soldjars of Fortune Ashes. A+ pun, and the thumbnail makes it look like an action movie poster.
asasfjhg the cartwheel arms guy had me laughing so videos off to a good start
