Messmer the Impaler is new. He has red hair so he's definitely related to Radagon. He might be the sibling of Melania and Miquella represented by the smoldering butterfly. The other two being represented by the nascent butterfly and the aeonian butterfly.
I think it’s Mesmer because the name Mesmer is short for mesmerize which is kind of miquellas thing
@@detrainmcknight7712 it's actually spelled Messmer based on the statue description
@@sebastianearick4488 hmmmmmmmm fair point
@@detrainmcknight7712 He's also wielding a red flame of some sort which isn't a Miquella thing. The only way I think that he could be Miquella is if the whole Mohg/Formless Mother thing caused a complete transformation. Since Miquella is described as child-like with long blonde hair, I'd say this guy is what a lot of us theorized Melina to be.
Malenia. Why can no one get her name right? 😅
It's been confirmed in an interview: this will take place at the same time the game does, it isn't set in the past or the future. And, the blond person we see at the very end, also confirmed, it's Miquella.
That's not Miquella. It's Messmer the Impaler.
@@roastinpeace2320 he talks about the blonde one not the red one
@@lz9275 Ah, sorry. For some reason I read "red" not "blonde".
I don't think was even Marika, that was probably Miquella, the brother of Malenia. This dlc seems to focus on him a lot
Nope!
@@BriefKeef I think he refers to the last shot of the trailer
@@BriefKeef No, he's right. That is Miquella. As the DLC is basically about him.
@@ironfromice the flaming guy is Messmer the Impaler, person at the end who is glowing is Miquella. Chances are Messmer is a forgotten child of Marika and Radagon.
@@itsShelleyyTV I'm aware. I'm actually very in-depth with Elden Ring lore.
The one in the cocoon at the start was Miquela. He abandons his flesh to go to the "realm of shadow" which is where the DLC takes place. He is also the one who lures the tarnished( the player) to that realm.
Also, at the end of the trailer, the golden haired person is Miquela.
Thanks for helping us out with that
Oooh
That creature with the Lion-head is a costume that is controlled by 2-3 Omen, it's supposed to be inspired by dancers in those large costumes during the Chinese new year's parades, the creature is called a Lion-Dragon or Pixiu btw, a very important creature in Chinese mythology as it ward's off evil spirits and protects mortals from them
😯 very cool
Vaati already has a video explaining all your questions. This is a hidden land separate from the main game. It doesn’t add a new ending or change the main game, it just explains some lore and history from a different perspective.
😎👍😀
Ah yes, the DLC we have been waiting for a year ever since it was announced. THANK MIYAZAKI IT FINALLY CAME THOUGH and nice to see ya’ll still reacting to Elden Ring content.
😎🤟
The DLC is actually concurrent with the events of the game when the tarnished arrives in the lands between. The land of shadow was actually once apart of the land mass but because of something that occurred in the game (which we’ll learn in the DLC) it is now separated and hidden
You guys should totally check out Vaati’s Lore of The Slumbering Demigod(Miquella)! It might give you a little context about what this DLC is about.
Yea, this might be the perfect time to react to that one.
The figure at the end of the video is Miquella, brother to Malenia and son of Radagon and Marika who is stuck in an eternal state of childhood. Vaatividya has a LONG video about Miquella's lore that I highly recommend, and I'd also recommend "Prepare to Cry: Age of Stars" while you're at it. They're some of his best work.
Too many M names haha. Four characters here and three of them have M and not one of them is named Mike to make it easier 😜🤗
@@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGamesblame George R. R. Martin
During editing you have added compression on your master sound which makes the trailer sound terrible, you need to add compression only to your microphones, not the master sound..
dont need to be an ass about it
it doesnt sound bad at all
Vaati has a video breakdown of the new Elden Ring DLC trailer. As far as timeline, you enter the DLC after defeating Radahn and Mohg. The first few scenes dialog are in reference to Miquella the Unalloyed which is a demigod we don’t really interact with but we know him as Malenia’s twin brother.
Yes I been waiting for this all day, thank you guys. Honestly amazing
another fun theory about messmer is he seems to have dragon eyes and wear armor themed around dragon communion. many things about him are rebellious to the golden order. there's even speculation around him being the 1st to burn the erdtree which caused that to be considered a cardinal sin
You did actually get it right his name is Messmer The Impaler, the person at the very end is very likely Miquella (The centerpoint of the dlc from most of what we have seen). From what information we have the setting seems to be in a forgotten war ravaged land that I theorize Marika wants to keep hidden and Messmer could be a sibling to Malenia and Miquella which serves as Marikas gatekeeper of sorts to prevent people from discovering the land or its secrets or whatever it may hold. As for the time it takes place its probably in the current time when you play the game just at a very late point into the game and finishing the dlc before beating the final boss of the main game might unlock a different ending. Anyways, Vaati actually did just release a 40 minute video going into detail for this trailer if you really want to know about it, he can explain this stuff way better than a youtube comment.
Yeah, I think the dlc takes place from before the erdtree. Cause there used to be a different tree that can be found where you fight Godwyn. I like your idea of Marika trying to keep this all a secret. That sounds like a really cool concept
@@NeverNormalNoah Its already been confirmed by HM that it isnt a time jump, just a land obscured by the erdtree.
@dylanburston7453 really? Huh, my bad. I didn't know it was confirmed😂
@@NeverNormalNoah I mean quite alot of your speculation appears to be right.
Mesmer seems to be melenia/miquellas brother, not godwyn, but still a demigod (godwyn may still play a role given there is a deathblight swamp)
But Marika is likley hiding the land of shadow, as this erdtree has drapes over it like we see in marikas bedchamber.
Vaati has a vidieo out on it
@@NeverNormalNoah I'd like to add that there wasn't a different tree before the erdtree, what you see in deeproot depths are the erdtree roots
The Art direction… just beautiful !!
(yes, even the giant mechanism with the burning bodies😂)
I adore the new background!!!
BTW, the blond person near the end of the trailer is Miquella, he's also the boy you heard saying "Come, now. Touch the withered arm, and travel to the realm of shadow. I will not be far behind. May we meet again."
We do not yet know when the DLC takes place, but we speculate that it will take place after players defeat Radahn and Mohg, but before players defeat Radagon. Because that's when you access DLC... That will also mean that this is the first DLC in FromSoftware history that a DLC takes place in the present... Before this, we only had DLCs placed in the Past (Dark Souls 1 for example) or Future (Dark Souls 3 for example)
Dark Souls 2 DLCs are all in the present.
@@Animechargeblog We don't talk about Bruno
That does seem to be the prevailing theory at the moment.
That does seem to be the prevailing theory at the moment.
You have to have defeated Mohg. The entry point for the dlc will most likely be Miquella's arm at Mohgwyn Palace.
That lion dancer has about 2-3 little guys (probably Omen like Morgott or Mogh, see the horns adorned all over it) underneath it controlling it. Its directly inspired by the Chinese festival/parade costumes and it is such a unique design choice to pull from.
So I believe from interviews that this will take place at the same time as the base game in a separate zone, and to get there you have to touch Miquella's hand (the one in the cocoon) after you beat Mohg and Radahn.
Happy Sunday to you guys!
I'm not the greatest at the souls-borne games but I absolutely LOVE the lore in this game so I persevered to finish it. I cannot wait to explore this new land and meet the characters. No doubt I will miss a lot so also looking forward to all the lore videos.
People DO study Elden Ring, I've watched their videos. I've watched their videos about how certain Elden Ring civilisations' innovations and advancements can be determined by the type of concrete they used in their buildings! xD
I LOVE THE BACKGROUND OMG
Thanks so much! 😀
Vaati did a breakdown of the trailer. Good time to Watch his Age of the Duskborn vid as well 👍
Cool thing some of the more observant people have noticed. The lion thing near the beginning is actually a group of people in a lion costume fighting you by lion dancing
+
PS. BTW: "genestealer cult - a story" & "Custodes - The True Sons" by red warrior is great.
when will the other lore videos be released?
I cannot wait for Vaati to cook with this DLC!
If the releass was a month later it'd be an awesome gift for one if myg friends' birthdays lol
Fun fact that lion is actually 2 short people one on top of the others shoulders wearing a lion puppet a bit like what they do in China with a dragon
Messmer the Impaler has not been mentioned in the main game to what I am aware. It's possible that Messmer is either a sibling to Melania and Miquella or perhaps a child of one of the two. Or what I think he might be is a child, or reincarnation, of Praetor Rykard, the demi-god who fed himself to the Great Serpent, the Devourer of Worlds, as Messmer appears to have fire and volcanic magic along with a serpent coiled around him. If Messmer is the offspring of Rykard, then him mentioning "mother" could be referencing Tanith Lady of Blasphemy; Rykard's consort. Also the blonde character at the end of the trailer is likely either Miquella or St Trina. St Trina is theorized to be Miquella's other half, similar to how Marika and Radagon are two halves. On a side note I look forward to seeing your reaction to Vaati's video on the Age of Duskborn ending to Elden Ring.
Seems to take place at the same time as the game and is being added in there. Mesmer is looking to be malenia’s and miquella’s sibling, given the hair and there being three butterfly materials. Two of them being the nascent and aeonian butterfly, which do represent miquella and malenia. The third butterfly is the smoldering butterfly which might be representing Mesmer. Also Fromsoft has a strong tendency to have families have similar sounding names, in this case we have Marika, Miquella, Malenia, and Mesmer. The golden figure at the end has people thinking it’s some kind of spiritual form of Miquella given that Miquella originally had the body of a child but was put in that egg right at the beginning by Mohg to try and force grow him in his own image and attempt to create a new dynasty. That’s Miquella’s arm that’s hanging out of it.
I think Messmer is either the twin sibling to Melina (both have their left eye closed) or a triplet of Melenia and Miquella.
The dlc will revolve heavily around Miquella, so one video I would suggest watching is Vaatividya's Miquella lore video. It is 45 min long, but it's so worth it.
In the end, the blonde. That was Miquella, Marika's son. The DLC will likely be based around him and telling his story.
2:07
A Berserk reference, to be sure, but a welcome one.
I don't know if you guys did, but watch all of the boss cutscenes if you don't plan on playing the game, I think it would be fun.
It was the son of marika and its gonna happen in kinda like a shadow dimension
Vaati has a vid out dissecting everything❤
Vaati's video on this trailer is 40 minutes 😂 and he feels he's not done.
Im so excited for this DLC! But guess what it comes out one day before my baby girl is due! 😂❤ Messmer looks like such a badass boss and cant wait to explore the land of shadow
The Lion was a multiple person Costume, like in the Chinese Parades, It is said that its part of the civilization that was before Marika and her reign. It was Miquella at the end, Remember? "I am Melania... Blade of Miquella." Great vid guys!!! love your content!!
This story is most likely about Miquella exploring the secrets of Marika. The person at the end was definitely Miquella, and this story is about his ascending to Godhood most likely.
Something i noticed, the very first person we see in the trailer is Melina ... But, she CANNOT be here... Because... Well... She's the kindling maiden.
Are you going to watch all the boss fights and cutscenes
Hopping back into my level 645 account
It looks really impressive. The aesthetics in this game are phenomenal anyway. The people at FromSoftware simply know how to design levels/worlds.
I had a lot of problems at the beginning, but now it's a lot of fun, even if the story and lore are very cerebral and cryptic.
I think it takes place many years in the past, before the golden earth tree from the main game...and tells the story of the members of the Roundtable...until we meet the son/unmarried child etc. of Radagon at the end...would be my guess.
it will certainly give us more info of the past, but it takes place in the same timeframe as the main game
Shadow takes place at the same time as the vents of main game, Messmer is an Empyrean, like Ranni and Melania. Messmer clearly has an issue with the Erdtree and with the Tarnished as well, and his avatar is the Snake (the "traitor") so it's very likely he against the Golden and Carrian Orders alike, and Shadow and Flame are his elements.
we don't really know if he's an empyrean
@@alexboninsegna8050 He controls shadow and flame, "mother", red hair, has a snake shadow and is the size of house. This is like asking if Reina is "really" a Mishima.
@@TwoSevenX it's confirmed to be a child of Marika, no doubt about that. we still don't know if he's an empyrean, the points you presented don't prove that lol
@@alexboninsegna8050 you're wrong lol also lol
The current theory about Messmer is that he is the secret child of Marika and Radagon.
miyazaki confirmed that he is the son of marika, and given his red hair hes probably radagons son.
wheres the death stranding 2 on the beach reaction????
I hope you guys get to the Elden Ring movie from Vaati soon.
The game is incredibly interesting, beautiful and creepy! I especially like how the creators make allusions to some real moments or problems of humanity. My opinion: The moment at 1:15 is a pure allusion to abortion. The lower part of this figure resembles the pelvic bones and uterus from where the arm of an already dead person sticks out. It's both creepy and interesting. And there is an incredible amount of this in the game. There are people who analyze all these details and this is an incredible excursion into history and mythology. Thanks for the reaction to the video. Very impressed!
yeah Google "uterine rupture", it's basically a split image. (warning you that the images are a bit gory)
Helldivers 2 trailer when? 😭
Miquella is considered the most benevolent empyrean but also the most fearsome because he wields kindness to win the hearts of men. His goal with the Haligtree was to make his own order that would accept even the rejects of the Golden Order, Id imagine hes trying to do something similar here in the Land of Shadow. That blonde at the end was definitely him. Messmer is likely a rejected child of Marika/Radagon that she still found a use for though the snakes make me wonder if theres any relation to Rykard
This DLC is meant to be entered after beating Radahn and Mohg so its taking place mid to late game as theres no time travel involved unlike previous souls titles.
like always vaatividya he has mad a video on thi already
Vaatividya already made a 40 min video about what was shown in this trailer. Maybe you would like to watch that video.
The dlc will take place in a new area called the shadow lands and focus on miquella the brother of Malenia the character at the end was more likely him than Marika
Can't wait for more elden ring reactions I've been waiting for the next prepare to cry
