I found this guy and just walked away from him. I sat and watched/listened to him and was actually moved in my heart. There was no reason not to kill him, he is standing in front of loot. There was no dialog or backstory that made me sympathetic. No appearance of weakness or infirmity to give me pause. Just an enemy with his back to me playing a flute. Something about the simple beauty of what they were doing and my own astonishment at the feelings it evoked in me stayed my hand. I don't think I've ever had an experience quite like that in 30+ years in gaming. It sounds dumb, but I was actually moved in my heart by this completely innocuous, meaningless little event.
Because you my friend are a mature person, someone who understands how hard life is, and how grey sometimes goes. This song, is no ordinary song, and only people who have lived enough or like me, young (24) but thoughtful, can "connect" with it. This song is about yearning what is lost, is about the past, a golden past, is about home, is about friends, is about everything that we lost in the way and we can do nothing but remember it with just a little bit of melancholy. Is about those moments and those feelings. That's why is so deep as much as it seems "simple", because our emotions look simple to the outside but are always deep and complicated in the inside (rather you are conscious or not, it matters not).
This guy actually perfectly harmonizes with the Leyndell Capital ambient theme. Go and listen to him with the background song. You'll hear it. It's so pretty...
The depraved perfumer in the albacanric village used to play this tune as well but doesn't anymore. It was so haunting and cool hearing this song in the devastated village.
I'd love that, maybe you could even collect different songs like in Ghost of Tsushima for your flute. Or even maybe a system like how you could find the musical notation pages for new crew shanties in AC Black Flag
I love this guy and I’ll never kill him. It honestly reminds me of when i was camping on the coast almost a decade ago and I woke up to someone playing the flute somewhere in the campsite circle. I just lied there for like 30 minutes listening to the mysterious flute player and the ocean in the distance I don’t really remember the tune that was played but there is a string of notes in this that sounds a lot like what I heard Good memories to get my shit kicked in to :)
He’s a boss in my game, for like bosses, he only had one death. Ever since that first encounter, I’ve stayed and listened a while before continuing on my way.
Was invading a world and saw him playing his flute. Then it got me thinking why they make enemies and stuff do this if the normal host isn't going to really have a chance to enjoy it if the enemy becomes aggressive.
@@who6242 More than just that. It's little encounters, special experiences that add to the overall bigger picture that is the game. Things that respect you because they're not forced into you, but when you stumble upon these moments you can't help but take a little moment of respect and look... And feel. It's very unique and worthy of respect. It has always been like that in From Software games and is one of my favorite aspects of their games. Not the gameplay, nor the pvp or stuff like that. I love the worlds and the things they have to say, the moments they craft and how everything ties up together. It's very special
@@shrigmamale4641 He plays it in remembrance, of when the city of gold thrive in commerce and people walked those now empty streets. He plays a song of what it was but is lost, is a song of hope, of Yearning to the home once was but is no longer
You have plenty of chances. All you have to do is walk up on him and not attack him. We'll stay on the balcony or the roof or the doorway below the balcony.
Great video, the decision to put the Erdtree in the shot is just spot on! By the way, I made a little video covering some musical aspects behind this, thought you'd be interested in that!
Pages are just people serving the nobility "page who traveled at the side of the noble he served" from the page spirit ash. And if we look at the noble sorcerer spirit ash " Spirit of a nobleman who once asked to be given a place at Raya Lucaria to learn glintstone sorceries." So it's possible that the page was granted access to the academy to help his noble master during his formation. As to why the page is guarding the staff, I do think he's more likely guarding the graven-mass behind the chest. the item description for the graven mass talisman reads as follow : "the act of collecting sorcerers to fashion them into the seeds of stars" Thoses faces are litterally sorcerers that got merges together after another mage experiment with primeval current sorcery. So it's probable that the page's noble reside somewhere in this graven mass and he don't know what to do now that his master isn't "alive" anymore. It's all speculation of course.
@@emmanuelcrespy8878 i think back in the day pages used to be young men that were basically personal guards or even butlers to a nobility, a person in power. If you meet one ingame its most likely close to the grave of said nobility, since most nobility died during the war
I found this dude and i Calmly approached him, Even unequipped my weapons so i can listen to him, Sadly he attacked me and i had to kill him, It was such a shame but thank you for this video!
Hey I was curious, if you put all of the songs in game (like this one, merchant one etc) together, how do they sound? Do they have a weird melody connection? I'm not good with sound things so I don't know how to do this myself :c but how From is I wonder if there is some sort of coherency:0
Not sure yet about if its connected to the merchants or other enemies, but the Page's song is almost exactly like the Leyndell Capital ambient music! Cool lore connection since thats where they come from
I'm working on the video right now. The bosses with dialogue are Margitt, Godrick, Rennala, Radahn, Morgott, Rykard, Mohg, Malenia, Maliketh, Ofnir and Godfrey. Please correct me if there are any other bosses with dialogue.
I can't quite remember, does this guy fight like a perfumer when you aggro him? I'm pretty sure this is the same song that the perfumer at the Village of the Albineurics plays.

I love how all the musicians in this game are quite melancholy. Their music tells enough of a story.
Very similar to the Leyndell Capital ambient music. They share the same three note leitmotif which the page repeats often in the song. really cool!
Yeah this is one of the best elden ring channels
Thanks 🤗
Agreed
Getting major Mist Noble vibes from the ambience

The world of elden ring lives with or without you. The guy isnt gonna play the flute just when you're there.

Expected him to suddenly play "shake your groove thing" and summon a bunch of omens to dance.
This is way better than the main theme actually lol
I'm wondering what is the Pages connection along with Depraved Perfumer as they play the same song...
Probably that they both served for the capital . Perfuming arts come from the capital and that's a royal page
They played this at my funeral
'played' as in past tense? Are you a ghost writing CZcams comments? lol
@@GamesfromMarsYT Noo I was a ghost before this though
She's a tarnished alright

hey fun fact I thought my headset was broken or fromsoft didn't do the sound right
turns out the song is them
What? I didn't get it
Nice, how did you get to record the music
Is there a way to get close to this guy without triggering his fighting mode ?
Thank you for this by the way, very relaxing I listen to this often !
I need the sheet music for this
I walked up on him and said play me the tune your feeling
would you ever do a "all bosses death dialogue or killed by boss dialogue"?
Good idea.👍 Noted.
@@GamesfromMarsYT introductions too if you could ive been trying to find someone whose done them everywhere

someone have the notes of this song?
Hi,
Do you know if you can switch off the interrupting of spells or incantations in Yapped, if so, can you tell us or show us. :)
I haven't tried anything with spells or incantations in Yapped so far so I can't help you.
I can't quite remember, does this guy fight like a perfumer when you aggro him?
I'm pretty sure this is the same song that the perfumer at the Village of the Albineurics plays.
Very different enemy attacks, but they do in fact play the same song. The Pages also drop "Perfumer bolts"
@@friendoftheoyster3906 Ahh appreciate it, thank you for clearing that up.
this somehow gives me eastern vibes
is she supposed to be from the land of reeds?
Its just the milfanitos song from DS2!
Is it?

HEY I HEARD ABOUT YOUR VID THAT HAD A CRAB BEATING THE GAME COULD YOU DO A LOBSTER INSTEAD?
I've been working on it. By default Lobsters spawn underground and I haven't found a way to fix it yet.
Anyone here knows what type of flute is used here ?
I think it's a wooden irish flute
This is what happens when you meet a sekiro player in Elden ring lol 😂
Of all the knights I kill during my run through Leyndell Capital, I spare the flute player. Always.
