We are so back
Even the countdown was making me lose my marbles.
Lmfao
Vaati: You underestimate my power, mortal
@@dgooshe yeah, I'm happy that one person will understand what's going on
I think the beginning of it was supposed to be a flashback to the war of the Order against the followers of the Frenzied Flame, that left the merchants as pretty much the last remnants of that group.
"We CHOOSE to follow."
Me after the dlc: well...
I mean a lot of them were still willing to follow, Leda caused the rift imo. The others might not have "rebelled" if not for her. Of course Miquella is also responsible for mind-controlling people in the first place.
@@Arkayjiya It's quite ironic, since there are far more people (and a much more diverse crowd) that voluntarily choose to follow Messmer than Miquella, and Messmer didn't even use any charm spells. Even after Messmer got abandoned by Marika and the Erdtree, they still follow him.
Just like trailer messemer soldiers fuck you up if not careful😂😂
Ironically Leda distrust was contained by Miquella spell
Dane, Leda and Moore still follow him and believe in him after the charm is gone. Although not out of any loyalty, both Freya and Hornsent do as well. Thollier follows St. Trina, who is technically still kind of Miquella, and presumably was still part of Miquella when Thollier first chose to follow.
Only Ansbach didn't choose to follow.
Miquella's charm was, primarily, to soothe conflicts (like Leda trying to murder people the second it goes away) and increase their efficiency in helping his goals. Miquella does not *rely* on his charm, it's just a tool that he likes using. It's weird how post DLC people have suddenly decided that Miquella is some kind of complete fraud with no redeeming qualities who just hypnotized his way through everything so he could take power. He's still a powerful and very intelligent demigod who ultimately wants to fix the problems of world but lost himself while doing so.

If you are implying that they are not following him voluntarily and that Miquella is controlling them let me tell you that you are wrong and you are misunderstanding the lore.
This is not an opinion, it is reality.
Investigate the lore.
understanding of whats going on - 0 %
hype - 100%
I have been following some lore youtubers and it gets easier to decypher some of the visuals after a while and it's fun.
That’s what playing every fromsoft game feels like
@@amwazdraws6890same. Smoughtown and vaati have dived into it. And they will do the same for this one.
And I will be there for it 😆
😂😂😂😂😂
This deserves more likes lol
I’ve never seen so many homies standing next to each other in a fromsoft game. What a bold shot at the end there
And yet you still needs mods to actually play proper coop, much less with that amount of people.
@datonkallandor8687 that co-op mod basically killed online play and invading. Soo i wonder if this dlc or an update is gonna turn that seamless mod into the basegame so elden ring ends up looking like an mmo without any grinding
@@Splatcake I will be shocked if fromsoft doesn't take some notes from the seamless co-op mod. IDK if they will integrate some kind of similar functionality into ER with DLC, or their next game. But if they don't do one or the other it would be pretty dumb of them IMO. It's crazy how popular it is (~1.6 million downloads from the nexus), not surprising with how much fun it is and easy to use (just drag and drop some files). I've played hours of that mod with my cousin and had SO much fun. WAY more fun than we ever had playing the games built in multiplayer. And it's amazing how perfectly it works. But yeah that was my first thought when I saw that shot. Only 30 days to go!
You just know most of them are going to die by the end.
I think it is a bunch of npc’s, as the big stone armour guy is there. Considering it’s the story trailer it perhaps means all these npc’s are here for the same reason as us, finding miquella. But I hope it means better coop and invading
1:57 Hearing this in the trailer: Thats so beautiful and heoric
Hearing this in the game: 💀💀💀
Where is the soundtrack from? Is it a boss theme?
@@Navarroandy77not A boss theme. Its THE boss theme. The single hardest boss fromsoft has ever made and its not even close

1:56 the choir says "Ave Marika Aeterna", which means "Hail, Marika the Eternal". Clever, FromSoft.
Amazing detail!
OH BOY Latin songs lesgoooooo
Do you know what choir says after ave Marika aeterna?
I thought Latin words in elden ring are gibberish?
@@fishgiovaana8441 not all songs, theres the song of the batmaidens who is in full latin, which probably meant that the devs wanted us to know more about the suffering the misbegotten endured because of the Golden Order. If this were truly the lyrics of the song Marika's armies extended way before the Golden Age. What wars did she fight? What races did she shun? etc etc.
here after finishing the game, in 1:13 that's romina, saint of the bud

0:18 If you look real close, you can see marks from the Tooth Whip on Marika’s arm.
Damn you are so right man nice pickup
Marika gave the hornsent got what they deserved tbh.
Also, a lot of people have connected the weird white thing to the jar innards, but to me it looks like a Bonny potentate hood with the maggots removed. Basically we see Marika harvesting her torturers.

You just know that about 1000 youtube channels will turn this into 3 hour essays before it even releases.
1 billion things you missed in elden ring trailer
watching all of them
@@ashplattsii1fan92 just 1 billion??? why not a trillion!!!
I just spent an hour looking over it for clues and piecing bits together. I dont even have a youtube channel it just seemed like fun. And like... its gunna be more then 3 hours if they want to explain all the different story threads. This thing feels like its pulling together like more then half of the threads. Fall of Nox? Check. The Gloam Eyed Queen, and the sealing of destined death? Probably check. Miquellas plan? And his relation to St. Trina? Obviously check. The god eating serpent heresy? Check. The end of the non-illusory erdtree and its sap? Probably check. The piles of frozen people in the Nox cities? Maybe? etc etc.
it's not GTA 6 so i extremely doubt it
1:50 out of all of fromsoftware's tracks so far, I don't think I've ever heard a piece so full of... optimism? heroism? hopefulness? I dunno, it almost sounds cheerful.
I think that the first few words in Latin are "AVE MARIKA, AETERNA" ( greetings, Marika the eternal)
I hope the ost will be as memorable as ds3, it definitly is a great one ^^, for me the only one rhat stuck was radagon/eldenbeast
That's what I was thinking - the trailer establishes a tragic background before presenting us a heroic figure - Miquella and all those who decided to follow him, despite the fact he abandoned his role as an Empyrian as well as his fate. It's, to date, one of the most optimistic trailers we've ever had. I've still got *some* suspicion towards Miquella but I'm starting to really like the idea that he's just straight up a nice guy who wants to fix shit and just straight up help.
If not Miquella's actual theme, I'm assuming it's related to service to Miquella due to it's falsetto vocal and endearing quality.
They are selling out with this game. George R.R. Martin, the empty-ass sandbox

We hear Romina's theme because that's her, holding the weapon which she probably found in her burnt out temple
“And one day, we’ll return together…to our home, bathed in rays of gold.”

The shot at 2:12 is paired with the line "even his fate" Knowing what we do now about St. Trina, this was clearly meant to depict abandoning love, not fate.
I like how Miquella's sites of grace are strong and appear as a shining beacon on the landscapes. It gives hope. Compared to the aura of grace given off the sites of Marika's, Miquella's is a confident ray pointed to the heavens.
That... Or markers for the sacrificial effigy to birth a new god. We'll see, I guess 🤷
A screenshot shows normal sites of grace but maybe these are special ones
@@tyler547 Right. I think these are special sites of grace and perhaps more contextual than the regular ones. The narrator talks about following Miquella while they're on screen, so I'm thinking we'll only see these around sites of major importance or before some story bosses.
@@Nomadestra1776 There's some sort of new, separate way of gaining power in the dlc, to stop people from coming into it completely overlevelled with max weapons and slapping everything - I think it's probably these things, Miquella leading his followers along while also making them (us) stronger
@@willb8673 I forgot they were doing this with the DLC. Now I think that's almost certainly what they're going to be used for.

Thanks for reminder. I hate you :D
Truly an ever elusive game.
1:13 Romina, Saint of the Bud!
0:20 you can see bone marks from the whip found in Bonny Village
Care to hit me with some lore?
@@silentnquiet The hornsent used tooth whips to whip the flesh of the Shamans (Marika's people) since their flesh melds harmoniously into jars to commence the Jar saint ritual. Marika was likely tortured and nearly stuffed into a jar, but she managed to escape and crossed the gates, becoming the eternal and swearing revenge for the death of her people.
We know the Gates of Divinity are built from corpses, but who built it is unknown, its definitely before Marika, though, so there's a possibility that the hornsent built the gates with the corpses of Shamans to commence the ritual of divinity and ascension, maybe they believed that if they crossed it, they may commune with the Heavens themselves, they did believe themselves messenger of Heaven, since the crucible touched them, even building Enir-Ilim to get closer and closer in physical form.
The hornsent hunted the Shamans because they believed anyone untouched by the crucible is lesser than, since the crucible is nature itself, (symbolic to trees, horns etc), and the Shamans were "purified" in the eyes of the hornsent.
It's also worth noting that the specimen storehouse is chalk full of old tomes and a treatment clinic for the fleshy Shamans, implying Messmer preserved hornsent knowledge in attempt to heal his mother's people.
@@silentnquietyou know those slimy things that burst out of the jars that you fight in the gaols? Those were shamans, Marika’s people. They were enslaved by the hornsent and stuffed into jars in the hope that they could become “saints”. That is why Marika is so full of hate towards the Omens and why she made Messmer slaughter their kind
@@vladdiaconescu5665 Look at Mr. Vaati over here. Thanks man, clear and concise.

Wrong way to look at life.
Missed the point
2:13 "Here I abandon my love."
Chilling in the extreme.
Loved it.
The only mistake miquella made. Abandoning his love meant we would not usher in an age of compassion as he proclaimed, but an age of control. One where the god adored is a husk unable to feel. The inspiration from Griffith/Femto is apparent now that I think about it

Fucking same. I'm gonna get an hour and a half of sleep now... fuck me..
Wait a minute. I think the graces in the shadow lands are actually Miquella’s rune, which would make sense because grace abandoned these lands so the place we rest at must be some form of his rune acting as the grace in this land.
Plus it resembles his twin’s rune, Malenia
And this is maybe how the new levelling system is Miyazaki said there will be a new levelling system similar to Sekiro it will make sense that we get stronger by visiting more sites of grace ( miquella rune) and basically collecting fragments from the graces until we get the whole rune
Also resembles the Halo Scythe, weapon of the Cleanrot Knights who served Miquella and Malenia
My thoughts exactly
cant wait to call these bonfires
Watching this after learning the dlc lore you can’t help but cheer on Messmer as he burns everything down
I hate those Hornsent
Hope both of you get therapy. This is like killing all Germans because of WW2 and Hitler.
@@emperorpalpatine4953 While I understand your point, it doesn't mean much in this context. The hornsent actively encouraged the mutilations and sufferings of the shamans. If there were outliers to those beliefs, people or cultures that denied the need for "sainthood" they were either completely forgotten or didn't exist in the first place. It's not "killing all germans because a lot of them were nazis", it's "killing all germans because ALL OF THEM were nazis".
I certainly don't agree with the genocide because it ultimately lead to even more suffering for everyone involved, but saying the hornsent didn't deserve it is downplaying the horrid things they did. They absolutely deserved what was given to them, but Marika took it a lot further than she needed.

The shot at 2:14 makes Miquella look like the Nascent Butterfly
*(I know about the butterfly lore just thought it was nice they had it in there)
As every speculative piece of lore has predicted.
That's St Trinas fate
@@90piterr Exactly since they are the same people its a good scene
@@ilyassayga7255 I'm inclined to believe he casted "her" away or did something to restrain that side of him given the scene and the lore of talking about her dissapearing.
That makes malenia the aeonian butterfly (obv) Millicent the smoldering butterfly, because of the "burning man" event, am I missing anything?
Miquella watered the Haligtree with his own blood, so perhaps 0:39 is Marika growing the Erdtree with the blood of the people of the Land of Shadow. The sky outside the pillars is grey, sky inside is gold of the new Age of the Erdtree. You literally see her forging the base rune of the Elden Ring in its Golden Order configuration (this base rune is also her symbol as seen in her soreseal and scarseal), which is conspicuously missing from the Age of Beasts Elden Ring relief in Maliketh’s arena.
If Messmer assisted in this atrocity, it would make him very old, older than the Erdtree. He is associated with snakes, and this would explain where the hostility between snakes and the Erdtree came from. His crime (and by extension Marika’s) had to be covered up.
1:45 The skybox shows one huge tree constricted by another. I believe this is the Erdtree symbolically and literally taking over the older Greattree, stealing its life essence. This marks the transition from the Age of the Crucible to the Age of the Erdtree.
This is some berserk shit
Those are the gates of divinity
You got it
coming here after beating the dlc.
that white thing at the beginning must be Metyr's face, Marika extracting the runes (explaining why the common golden runes all look like microcosm) and using the gate contacting the greater will under Metyr's suggestion, and calling in the elden beast (which might not have been sent by the greater will at all considering it didn't communicate with Metyr at all), then becoming a god. we don't see the elden ring at all in the land of shadows, or in any society before the golden order. even the divine towers have no elden ring symbol, at best they have a meteoric representation of the fell god's eye.
we see it once in farum azula, with Maliketh above Marika's statue, so it was probably a recent addition, so it is relatively recent as a creation. I assume Marika forged the elden ring to control the currents of the crucible and control all life so that none shall experience what she endured as a shaman. controlling life is a plan already enacted but not perfected by the hornsent, as they describe controlling the "normalized" currents of the crucible, saying they will create a tower to the gods. my opinion is that the divine gate and towers were proto erdtree and lesser erdtrees, an attempt to control the crucible and call the gods from "higher spheres"(the cosmic lightless void). would explain why the 2 fingers are on each divine tower, s the divine gate might communicate with the cosmos.
Marika basically achieved control of all life, but in the end was slave of the fingers' machinations. the "seduction" was from Metyr convincing Marika to become a god. the "betrayal" from Metyr or the fingers assuming the real control of the lands between as fake interpreter of the greater will.
They really hit us with the *Plin, plin, plon*.
When?

It's just final fight OST, though.
2:30 is such a boss shot. Looks so good.

The music in this specific part is so different to anything i've ever heard in any From game, it almost sounds like a Monster Hunter track or from some Nier game.
Hello! Have accepted Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior?
@@Br.Kevin1 damn fukin right man
A call to arms, I am so ready for June
2:13 this makes So MUCH SENSE NOW 😭
1:33 shot is just straight art 🔥🔥
The line about “a purge without Grace or honor” is subtly terrifying in what it implies. We know from the base game that the Golden Order has been responsible for several horrific massacres, many of which they either boast about or at least seem indifferent to the knowledge of. Whatever the hell Messmer did, it was so nightmarish and morally bankrupt that even MARIKA- who ordered or at least condoned the mass torture of the Omens and the slaughter of the Misbegotten- wanted nothing to do with him and had all record of his deeds erased from history.
"nah bro that aint mah kid bro, hes adopted"
Right? The implications are unimaginable. In the base game we learn of the Golden Order's several wars across the continent, complete genocide of the giants, the persecution of the omen and wandering merchants, and enslavement of demihumans. Somehow there's something so atrocious even compared to all this it is considered unspeakable in nature. Holy shit.
@@deltaz3362Man Godrick is already fucked in the head. I can’t imagine how bad Messmer is
Calling it now that holy damage is gonna be crazy in the dlc
something tells me that whatever happened here was just messmer's first offense against the golden order. i think he probably did something else later to get himself excommunicated, and marika chose to stick him in the land of shadow as a sort of poetic justice.
shame for whoever survived the first round messmer had with the place, though.
that lion head thing that is modeled after the chinese dragon dancer thingamabob is such a cool design, fromsoft needs to give them a raise who came up with it
And the sound when it moves, the clatter of hundreds of plates, by the looks of it it is probably made of, moving together. I really hope that this detail is not only for the trailer but that an actual enemy in game produces that sound. It adds so much to that kinda "robotic", determined movement but kinda not feeling. Its awesome.
@@DreamskyDancethat’s gonna be a boss for sureee!
@@DreamskyDance I agree, and I also hope it's multi stage.. maybe after knocking off the armor, you fight the beings beneath
I just realized the lion dancer thing is having to hold his jaw together at 1:18 if you slow it down. Fucking christ that is disturbing.
@@adhgymmixes7515 Holy shit I thought it was just a beast with armor but its actually a person inside like the lion/dragon dancing thing cuz you can see human hands holding it. What an odd fighting style, but so cool!
0:34-0:47 what an unbelievably stunning take. The eerie sound syncing with the wind, the hair and clothing moving around, its such a graceful yet somber and mysterious take. Followed by the far away shot of the gate, one of the most artistically impressive imagery I've ever seen. Just WOW.
1:14 this is Romina

@@zeMasterRuseman What are you? The “fun police”?
1:13 shout out to my girl Romina. Her theme also plays.
Damn this hits different after playing through the DLC. So epic
My biggest complaint with the soulsborne games is we never get to see what happened before everything went to shit. 15 seconds of Messmer's war and I am satisfied
Yeah it's fantastic. You see Messmer's legions, him burning a city and the impaled remains of his enemies and you *get* it
all the 'messmer is actually the hero' mfs are so horrifically wrong lmao
@@anemoi6803 fanboy nonsense

Dark souls 1 sends you back to partake in the legend of artorius, dark souls 2 sends you back to the war with the giants. Like you get to see and take part in these events, I don't get this complaint.

@@deadlyapple8333he literally used the exact sentence structure and wording lol, I wouldn’t have called it out otherwise
I've been watching this trailer non stop, still get chills everytime.
Sameee
I really hope Miquella turns out to be the heroic person they’re making him out to be
It could happen, but probably something very tragic happened to him, or his accomplishments were at the cost of something too great for him, which made him leave it all behind. I have a feeling we'll have the Artorias treatment all over again.
I think he is a good caring demigod but he’s probably going to have a fate worse than death as per usual
He is compelling people's love. Sounds more monstrous what even Greater Will was doing through Marika and her oppressive Golden Order.
@@slwstry Well, judging by FromSoft's track record, any character that gets close to "the truth" ends up getting killed, or worse. Think Artorias, Sunbro and even Hyetta.
They were all moral and heroic people, Miquella might just be the case here.
Understand this is not our Miquella this is an entirely different universe a bit of a what if like marvel does
The stylization of the characters is beyond me as an artist. Such love for uniqueness and originality. FromSoftware is constantly seeking to break from conventional design. I love it.
This is the most fascinating aspect of From Software games.
Their art style is leagues ahead of anyone else in the gaming industry.
indeed they constantly seeking to break conventional design, but vasilisk-lizards stays the same since DS1
@@ChuvakSuralaBecause those are fan favorites. You’d hear people complaining if they didn’t look like goofy frogs with big fake eyes.
@@spiraljumper74 Fuck favorites
big nah
I just realized this is the first time I’ve been a fromsoft fan during a new souls release and it’s so cool man, one thing I wanna mention is the massive contrast between the first half of just blood, fire and death compared to the second half where it’s so motivating and hopeful
I like that contrast ur right
Same, this is so cool!!
1:56 and the music onwards hits different after the beating the DLC... chills.
please FromSoftware, keep including npc's in your trailers. Just seeing all of them on the screen at the end makes them look so cool
"Will you walk with us?
Or have you been swayed by 18 inches of Messmer?"
lol🤣
Enjoy yourself a full 18 inches of Messmer

Too mesmerizing. Hard not to.
@@anthonydraco7958 was that on purpose
I like that it seems like they're keeping Miquella as someone actually trying to make the Lands Between a better place. He's still otherworldly and kind of terrifying in a subtle way, but it's nice that he seems to be motivated by a genuinely altruistic desire to reduce suffering.
Now I'm sure we'll eventually learn that Miquella *IS* Messmer or that he secretly eats babies, but we can cross that bridge when we come to it
This guy gets it
yeah his whole shtick is that everyone loves him and he inspires followers cause hes a great guy.
im betting that whatever mohg did to him with the formless mother ritual thing is not just going to be brushed over, he is gonna turn into a bad dude. i see so many parallels with him and griffith at least following what i think will naturally happen. effeminate blonde dude everyone loves and wants to fight for turns into evil demon prince because of some weird demon shit, would be a sick boss and a cool plot twist.
@@christiansargent6053 you mean mohg
Miquella is so sus. The love he inspires on people is almost cult-like and bordering on zealous (But he's divine so maybe this can be excused) He's honestly the most 'godly' out of all the Empyreans. We'll find out if he eats babies soon.
@@e-money9251 there are too many similar sounding names in this narrative lol
"We choose to follow" -Leda under Miquella's charm
"Okay, which of my no longer brainwashed companions do I feel like killing today?" -Leda two seconds after Miquella's charm is broken
Man I wish we could get movies in this style.
Number 1 on trending for the 2nd time in a row with trailers. Miyazaki and the guys at Fromsoft really do have the internet in a chokehold. They're just built different.
It's called advertising. They spend millions on it. Trending is the just for the masses. Same as the old days top 40 charts. Make sure to buy just like your peers 😊😊
@@markdelgado6984 'Spend millions on advertising'

Can’t forget to give props to Unit Image who bring these cinematics to life.
Elden Ring & FromSoftware games are like one of best games & one of best fantasy worlds. Really unique.
@@markdelgado6984 Yeah dude the games suck, people just buy them cause the marketing's really good. You definitely sound like a very smart individual.
This score is CRAZY
It's incredible. I'm really feeling Miquella's "welcome" score too. Super high fantasy shit and I'm all about it.
I don’t think I’ve ever heard that chord progression at 2:06 before in any media it’s so unique
It's fcking awesome
OST GONNA BUMP IN THE SPACE COUP
Hopefully it’ll be better than main game
If you are looking for the music/track from 1:50, it is called: The Promised Consort by Shoi Miyazawa
The track is 6 minutes 33 seconds long and that specific part starts around 4 minute 42 seconds.
I'm glad the best music of this trailer is used in the game. Helps with the pain
And that is the final OST
Didn’t understand a single thing from the trailer but its 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
EXACTLY my thoughts 🤣
How much of the base game do you understand?
- Mesmeer is a Bram Stocker's Dracula big fan
- Join the femboy simp squad in a rescue mission
same....like what IS GOING ON!!!! dont understand any of it.
that MIGHT be us
01:00 the sound of the slow marching in unison is so good
This shot is absolutely ominous, can't believe people are not talking more about it.
@@Valzack The rhythm and pacing of their steps is unexpectedly great
Definitely! That’s a strong scene that one
It's not so good if they are marching towards you
@@Valzackit’s hardly ominous. It’s pretty obvious what’s going on lmao
I think the troops having no eyes may be significant in some way.
Shabriri was charged with slander and as punishment his eyes were removed.
Lol didn't even notice they didn't have eyes until 4 days to the dlc😂
After playing the DLC I can say that the hornsent deserved it tbh
Yeah fuck that guy I can’t believe I helped him
Absolutely. The lore of the shamans adds alot of depth to Marika's character and her hatred of the hornsent (omens). Marika's revenge! Those stripped of the grace of gold shall shall all meet death, in the embrace Messmer's flame!
Not really, his people massacred marika's people. Shaman's village lore tells that.
