imagine waking up in your grave and realizing that you sacrificed yourself for people who didnt even like you and it ended up not even mattering. Yhorm is such a tragic character
Brian Crocker The way he has his head down when you walk into the throne room, only to lift it as you enter, you can just see the emotion, like "sigh so you've finally come so be it let's end this".
Is it only me or does he really shout a horror-filled NOOOOOOO in the trailer?
@@piotrnapora5810 late reply I know, but yeah that's a shout of anger, he didn't want to live anymore
@@thebruheternal3654 I think it's more of a sorrowful scream. He saw that his sacrifice was futile
He's back. And he's pissed
I like how Yhorm and the Abyss Watchers have these cool cinematics, and Aldrich is just like, “sludge time”.
She wasn’t even a good fight either in my opinion, although we both died at the same time which is epic
@@matty_daddy he*
@@matty_daddy He. And Aldrich isn't the humanoid body, Aldrich is JUST the sludge. The figure is Gwyndolin from DS1, being eaten by Aldrich.

When you think about it,The abyss watchers aren’t Artorias’ “fanboys” but yours
You still don’t get any credit for it 😢
@The Dude I don't get it :D
@@chrissid.3763 You face Manus and stop the spread of the abyss in ds1 but everyobody thinks Artotias did it because he went to fight it and never came back.
We altered history. Artorias was the original thuggy shoes that killed Maniggus. Though Maniggus cant be the real father of the abyss because he is black, so he most definitely would have left.
They still follow Artorias since they’re apart of the wolf blood covenant.

Underrated comment
@The Paranoid bruh
LOL
Man, Artorias is probably the luckiest guy in history. It has to have been thousands upon thousands of years since the first linking in Dark Souls 1, and Artorias, *who was dead way before THAT*, still has fanboys.
+John Doe technically theyre your fanboys tho, cuz artorias just got the credit for what you did ;D
+John Doe Seath is almost as good though, seeing as many thousands of years after HIS death people are still killing things by smacking them with his tail.
+Android 19 ornstein has bosses of itself in all soul series
they drank artorias blood
but if we never went back in time to kill manus. whos to say that alternatively artorias did stop the abyss since all side bosses appear to be canonically not dead from what we see in dark souls 3
Seeing the Abyss watchers rising and Yhorm is such a cool feeling.
it gives me chills every time! this, ladies and gentlemen is how immersion is done right!

Aren’t they born from Artorius’s blood of some shat or am I wrong
2:13 Yhorm waking up and with his size seeing how his kingdom became dark and death
He scream of rage and sadness, he understood what is happening
It's just sound like: "F*ck Lothric, It's your turnnnnnnn to link that goddamn fire!"
Honestly I feel like he's more pissed of that he returned to life as a lord of cinder rather than concerned about his kingdom.
@@Kmi_Sama no i think it's because he realised that his actions are what led his kingdom to doom.
@@vvcreative2628 what? what actions? You talking about linking the flame? the cycle of the fire is a thing pretty much everyone knows about, and the fact that the fire will always fade and it always did just proves it too. He straight up doesn't even cares about the flames anymore, hence why he refused to go to the throne alongside Ludleth and the others.
@@Kmi_Sama Yhorm promised he would end the profaned flame to prove his human subjects worthy but his failure to do so lead to their deaths. That event.
I like how the devs have the Ringed City DLC in mind from the start. As you can see, the opening scene of this cinematic is the last arena of Dark Soul's franchise where you fight, undoubtedly one of the greatest boss fights ever, Slave Knight Gael.
You should prob put a spoiler warning there just in case anyone hasnt played the DLC yet
@@TheDvellify just because the game is 3 years old doesn't mean spoilers dont apply
Akira Leelarapin That doesn’t necessarily indicate they had that stage in mind way before 2016. Maybe they just inspired themselves from the trailer to make the last boss stage

there's a reason why it's taking so long and we there hasn't been anymore videos about it, so Elden Ring is delayed because Miyazaki made a bet with a Bandai Namco executive that if Sekiro got GOTY 2019, they would give him extra development time for Elden Ring.

The GPA fades, and the homework goes unsolved. When the link of graduation is threatened, the bell tolls, unearthing the old lords of success from their graves. Wikipedia, saint of knowledge. Caffeine's sleepless legion, the one-nighters. And the reclusive lord of the drunk capital, Alcohol, the giant. Only in truth, the lords will barely do good, and the unhealthy will rise. Nameless accursed students, unfit even to be a functional part of society. And so it is that the student seeketh jobs.

god that scene with Yhorm always gives me chills, Fromsoft are truly the greatest game developers of our time
Even now, almost two months after Elden Ring premiere Dark Souls III will have a special place in my heart as the first soulsborne game I've playied. Maybe it was the last of the franchize, but for me it was the begining
Last Souls game, lets end this with a bang
+Rukasu Mizukiyo Hell yeah! Also, fancy seeing you here Ruka. How's the others?
JackNewbie555 They're good
+Gherman The First Hunter I certainly did not, at least not before they got us another Dark Souls. I have nothing against Bloodborne but I have no taste for controller of consoles. Hope for you that there will be a Bloodborne next though!
+Rukasu Mizukiyo this isnt the last?
+Doom Miyazaki has made enough souls games, Demons Souls, Dark Souls 1, Bloodborne and now this, Fromsoft are apparently ready to move on to different games.
Some of those games could always inherit things from this series but this is, as of right now, the last Souls game they're doing.
Our Dark Souls 2 characters really fucked the world up lol
+vMr Insanity Not like the world was that nice when you started.
+Silas Isolias no, +Tygravius is correct. Miyazaki purposely chose not to direct DS2 because he was already working on bloodborne. Hence why DkS2 is shit and mostly bland compared to DkS1 and DeS.
+Avery Rathbun. Dude, clues are scattered all through DS2, very much implying that they are connected, and that DS2 is many cycles into the future taking place centuries(if not millenia) after the first.
The weapons of Gwyn's knights can be found in DS2. the item descriptions mention that the knights served a previous Lord of Light whose name was forgotten.
Havel's armor can be found deep underground in the Gutter, and the description basically says that no one now knows whether "Havel" is the name of the warrior or the land he came from.
The Old Witch Soul is dropped by the Lost Sinner in NG+ Which is a reference to the Witch of Izalith.
The chick who sells infusion stone mentions that countless kingdoms rose and fell on the exact same tract of land and that no one knows what it was called before Drangleic.
The Altar of Sunlight in Harvest Valley......look VERY closely at it. you will see around it, the remains of the castle terrace that it once stood upon......it looks identical to the terrace in DS1.
the Lord Vessel from DS1 can be found shattered in the basement of the Majula Mansion.
Need I go on?
+Avery Rathbun Pretty much. that tends to happen after the old kingdoms collapse when their respective Age of Fire ends.
I'm just trying to show that each game happens within the same world(or parallel worlds) during different cycles........as opposed to games like Demon's Souls
and Bloodborne which happen in entirely different universes altogether.
I would say that we are both correct in a way. lol. ......because previous cycles are forgotten and descend beyond even the reaches of myth.

No, but FromSoftware could do bloodborn 2 or other game in the same kind. I really hope they will do it.
Nukaviator Me too.
it's fucking insane to me that they preplanned ringed city to coincide with the intro cinematic - a world turned to ash and dust
"Are you still playing in 2020?"
"Yes, indeed!"
It is called masterpiece.
Yes. Indeed...
Yes indeed. It is called Lothric. Where the transitory lands of the lords of cinder converge. In venturing north the pilgrims discover the truth of the old words. The fire fades and the lords go without thrones. When the link of fire is threatened the bell tolls unearthing the old lords of cinder from their graves. Aldritch, Saint of the Deep. Farron's Undead Legion, The Abyss Watchers. And the reclusive lord of the profaned capital, Yhorm The Giant. Only in truth, the lords will abandon their thrones, and the unkindled will rise. Namless acursed undead, unfit even to be cinder. And so it is that ash seeketh embers.

Warhammer 40K
or The Witcher 3 to a lesser extent. The highlight for me will always remain the original Dark Souls- Artorias, Gwynn, Gwynevere, Izalith, Queelag and her sister... they will always remain the defining characters of the series and some of the hauntingly tragic characters I've ever had the (mis)fortune of knowing. Tragedy on such a scale is something I've only ever seen in the Witcher 3 dlcs- Hearts of Stone more than Blood and Wine and quite possibly the bad ending to the main storyline. Was stunned to realize that Aldrch devours Gwnevere and that the Nameless King is probably the firstborn son of Gwynn.

Doesn't matter. Whether you like the Dark Souls games and their successors or not. What matters is that dudes create video game art. At a level that, many years later, some modern developers do not even dream of. Appreciate this vibe, the lords of cinder rise from their graves once again.
I absolutely adore how this cinematic introduces some of the most important characters in the game, doing it in just a few seconds but giving all the characterisation you'd need for them. Not that you won't get more later, but even this would be enough.
- Each of them rise as Lords of Cinder, telling you immediately that they already *HAVE* linked the Fire, but are back for some reason. Essentially, you are immediately given an idea that these were mighty warriors of their time who chose to burn and then were eventually struck down by their successors.
- They are each given grand titles, such as "Undead Legion" and "Reclusive Lord" to immediately give them some character via narration. We know immediately that Aldritch is some religious figure, that the Abyss Watchers are an army, not an individual and that Yhorm is a shy boy without ever meeting them. Yet this isn't just boring narration, it's magnanimous, grand and you might even say hopeful at this point, introducing each for their quality of Lord of Cinder and almost sounding like an awe-struck fortune teller predicting the great age of Cinder.
- Their physical appearance are then used to build up (or tear down) said narrative description. For "Saint" Aldritch, who bears no further description, you see him blob forth from his crypt, all mushy and liquified, causing you to wonder just what kind of fucked up faith made HIM a saint. But then Yhorm's description of "Reclusive", is compounded by him BUSTING to the surface alone, abandoned, a king in an empty, ruined city, with a scream you might as well assume to be from him. And the Abbyss Watchers not only have Artorias's sword design, but their rise from individual tombs highly reinforces their status as a single lord of many figures, as they stand up in sync, looking forlorn and lost, as if they were still ready to watch over the Abbyss, but lost, confused as to where they are and what they are to do. (Which receives even greater significance if you consider what happened to their predecessor, Artorias.)
- Their physical appearance is then also used to build up certain other qualities, some related to each other, some entirely unique. Aldritch isn't simply a big pile of goo, but almost looks like a D&D slime, having rotting bones and what seems mouldy meat in his form. This is significant because he's not just weird or disgusting, but horrifying and unnatural, signalling that "he" most likely kills and perhaps even consumes his opponents. The Abyss Watchers and Yhorm both have gleaming armour and weaponry, looking mighty warriors, but with a layer of dust, ash and dirt over them, clearly showing how their time has already passed and they aren't meant to be here, this is a desperate act. Even so, they ARE former lords of Cinder and thus their might is apparent. The Abyss Watchers have gleaming swords and armour, even if their cloaks are torn and dusty. Yhorm meanwhile has more resplendent, kingly armaments, contrasting the fact he looks lost and confused, perhaps that little head tilt showing his absolute devastation at just WHAT he awoke in.
These little details in just a few seconds tell you almost everything you need to know about these guys on a rudimentary basis and it immediately outlines who's who. It makes Yhorm feel sympathetic but dangerous, the Abyss Watchers mysterious but heroic and Aldritch mighty and horrifying. It paves the perfect path for the story to then show you more of their work. The heroism and eventual corruption of the Abbyss Watchers, the incredibly disturbing deeds and desperation of Aldritch and the loyalty and suffering of Yhorm, all of which is already hinted at in this tiny intro about them.
Man, for all the mechanical mistakes, DS3 has some amazing plot and lore.

The abyss watchers are probably one of my favorite boss in the soulsborne series ever. How they rise up from their tombs into the light and the music that goes along with the scene is memorable.
yhorms roar always sounded so sad. he doesnt want to be alive
It‘s been 7 years, but this trailer is still sick as hell. The parts with Farrons undead legion and with Yhorm the giant are so badass, dayum.
this intro is one of the best intro in videos games history hands down, the part with Yhorm is sick af thats crazy.
Before you learn Yhorms lore, you think his roar is a menacing thing, after though, you feel like it’s just a cry in anguish
That's what I once thought. I thought he was waking up, ready to kick my ass once I get to him.
Still get teary-eyed from seeing that pilgrim succumb to death, and chills from Yhorm's roar. Master class of immersing you in a completely different atmosphere
One of the best trailers
I would like to thank From Software and all developers who created "souls" universe for teaching me to never give up even if it seems impossible to beat some enemy or boss. You teach me to have patience and understanding that sometimes you have to fail 1000 times to reach a goal and that the hardwork and trying all over is key to succes. I know that those are just games but my life was changed after playing it.
I think that Dark Souls changed my life too
It is one of the greatest cinematics of all times. Even watching it 8 years later. I'm still having the chills as the first time.
This cinematic is a masterpiece in and of itself!
Since I know Yhorn's story, every time I see this, I can hear his pain in his scream.
Upon watching this cutscene for the first time, when I saw Yhorm, I saw him as this towering monstrosity whose roar sent chills down my spine. Out of curiosity I searched up his lore.
I then went back and watched this cutscene again and saw Yhorm for who he really was, a giant who suffered. His roar is literally akin to a scream of agony.
I love how when they show each Lord of Cinder, the theme changes to something that sounds similiar to their themes: Aldritch's Gwyndolin-like theme, Abyss Watchers' bells and choir and Yhorm's "louder" choir.

Which boss is that

"Boy.....what....are...you........doing?"

This is still the best opening in the souls game , if u pay attention to the background music, you will out that it’s playing the remix of the boss and character theme when the character is being introduced
after playing the game i realized why Yhorm roars like that
the people who apointed him as thier leader doubted him
a lot and after countless times where he proved himself and yet they still doubted him he made the ultimate sacrifice to ensure the saftey of his people and well being he went on to become a lord of cinder(wich means feeding himself to the firstflame as to prevent the world from going dark)
and when he wakes up he realized he sacrificed himself for nothing
and the people did not even care about him
such a tragic character
and the most painfull thing is that in real life the number of people like this is not low
1:50-2:20 I can feel Yhorm's pain. He's like "NOOOO!!!! Not this again! I gave you my life! What more do you want from me??!!"
Maybe it's my nostalgia talking but I think the old lady narration was perfect. I really missed it in Elden Ring. The Dark Souls lady has such a memorable voice. The ER guy just doesn't sound as good. I don't like his weird moaning either.
Dark Souls grandma is the best, I miss her lol

I'm a nerd but every time she introduces Yhorm I get chills

OOOOOOHHHH ELDEN RING :D
The first time I play this game I was like
“Ok !! That’s it, no more” two weeks later I complete the game for 6th time. There are so many ways to play this game. Is incredible !
Anyone else notice the one Abyss Watcher in the back towards the right waiting to kill the others when they awoke?
You can also see (all be it very obscurely) the corpses of other Abyss Watchers behind them.
that is just a pile of rock behind him. the infighting didnt start until the arrived in Farron Keep
Actually if you look closely you can see the tips of their hats, and also this opening is just meant to convey the general story of each Lord of Cinder, not follow the lore to the letter, so here it is just familiarizing new players with the fact that the Abyss Watchers are now fighting among themselves.
Nobody:
Yhorm after waking up:
**inhales**
*AAAAAAAAAAAAAA*-
Somebody pointed out how it was probably him being like "WHY AM I ALIVE AGAIN"
Yhorm is a miserable man and it makes me sad.
@@gavindillon1486 ikr, poor dude was already fucking done and now they resurrect him, no wonder he had no interest in linking the flame again
To the job, again xD
Same, buddy. I, too, must scream in anger when I wake up lol.
Yhorm: *gets an oscar winning introduction*
Yhorm: *gets speedkilled by a speedrunner who wears nothing but boxer shorts*
No
Wtf, this game
is already seven years old
best intro in video games in my opinion
I can't imagine how exciting it was to see this trailer for the first time before the game's release
Girls: ughhhhh, she’s wearing the same outfit as me!
Boys: 1:36
Hahahahahaha
Am Proud to be one of the bois 😎
Lol
XD
That Yhorm's part always gives me chills
4 years later and it's still an amazing game. Praise the sun!
Her voice is perfection, she sounds so mysterious and wise
