    CORRECTION: Latennas dialogue DOES work but it bugs out if you advance millicents quest so not everyone sees it.

    • @Demokaze
      @Demokaze Рік тому +20

      Latenna's dialogue always works but you must obtain her ashes through dialogue and not off her corpse and if you're on NG+ you must not discard the Latenna ashes you got on that playthrough (again, through dialogue). The quest can still be completed with the Latenna ashes you have from a previous playthrough (if you're doing her quest and discarded the new Latenna ashes) but the dialogue for the two milestones (mountaintops and snowfields) will not play.

      Also, you don’t have to let patches kill you in the cave: if you stay a live long enough to create some distance he’ll give you the emote mid-fight which you can use to get him to spare you. It’s a nice touch.

    Awesome video.
    Here's some more extra NPC stuff.
    After killing Radahn, Alexander can be found stuck again in Liurna just above Jarburg. Using additional oiled pots on him will free him. He will tell you more about himself and his home (Jarburg).
    After talking to Edgar about Irina and her letter, he can be summoned to fight the Misbegotten in Castle Morne. In Liurnia. There is also a ghost mourning about Edgar descent to madness / frenzy close to the Revenge Shack ( cool foreshadowing for Irina = Hyetta and him holding a Shabriri grape).
    D can be summoned to fight the Tibia Mariner that's East of Liurnia as well as the Black Knife Assassin in the Black Knife Catacombs. Other D can also be summoned to help with Black Blade Gargoyles Duo if you give him D's armor first.
    Nepheli Loux can be summoned to fight Hourah Loux after completing her questline.
    Millicent, Tragoth, and Boggart can be summoned to fight Magma Wyrm Makar in Ruin- Strewn Precipice.
    Beast Clergy Man will have unique dialogue when you enter his boss room if you complete his Deathroot questline. He will recognize you and feel bad.
    Patches will stop fighting and spare you if you use Extreme Repentance gesture (after he tells you to surrender). You don't have to die to him.
    You can summon Millicent's adopted sister to fight Commander O Neil.
    Melina will have additional dialogue talking about Radagon / Merika if you go to the Queen's Bedchamber grace after killing Morgott.
    Dungeater can be summoned to fight Morgott and Sewer Mogh after you free him from his jailcell.
    You can find moments of Jar Barin sleeping in Jarburg. He'll sleep talk about either Alexander or Diallos. It's really cute.

    When patches tells you its your “last chance to surrender”, you don’t have to die to him. If you use the “beg for forgiveness” gesture (the same one he used when you first fight him) he’ll forgive you and you’ll get some extra dialogue. That’s what the intended interaction was.

      Small correction; beg for forgiveness isn't the gesture you must use. You can do it as much as you like, he won't forgive you. But when you attack him and trigger this second fight, you get the Extreme Repentance gesture (you even see it in this video). That is the gesture you must use, and he will stop attacking before you've even finished the emote.

There's a small little slope that you can go jump down and if you follow the slope up back onto the top you will find a mushroom to your left close to some trees inn closest to the wall of the slope.

    I absolutely love quest design in Elden Ring. Or some might say the lack of it. Yes, in normal playthrough you will miss 90% of quests - and it's fine, honestly. Because isntead you have way more natural quest lines, where you don't know when and IF you will meet some character. They are not checkboxes in your menu, they are real characters

      That's not design. That's the absence of design. It's haphazard. It punishes you greatly for exploring because if you don't talk to some random goober in Caelid, a questline gets ended in Altus immediately because you crossed a line in a building in Castle Stormveil and you have no way of knowing. It's an artifact from Dark Souls quest design but at least there, exploration was taken into account. You would naturally find them along their paths as their quests progressed since the games were much more linear. In Elden Ring, every new place I decide to explore, I have to ask myself if it's worth wasting my time riding around in some other place I explored 2 days ago to make sure a quest has progressed and they have something for me to do in this new place. It's the least natural experience possible. These people want your help but refuse to make it possible to help them without a guide open on a second tab.

    Ah, no feeling quite like the first playthrough where you combine walking across the ravine to Liurnia and waltzing straight down the Stormveil gate because everything in Elden Ring is easier when you just walk ahead, and realizing you deleted like 20 questlines.
    They had patches for some of the sequences to be more intuitive, but it didn't always apply to saves in progress. I spent a great deal of time yelling at Kenneth Haight, I walked straight up to Godrick and Nephili was hiding in some sequestered closet opposite from the boss gate down the stairs like "why is violence so bad?

    Some might wonder why are these interactions so hidden and somewhat meaningless? I think the developers do it because if just one person stumbles upon it on accident and has a moment like that, then it is all worth it.

    I always found it strange how Gurranq doesn’t go away even after defeating Maliketh in Farum Azula as long as you don’t give him all 10 deathroot. Feels like some of these NPCs were meant to go further into the story with us, even some other NPCs like Jerren, Boc, Rya, Patches, etc all have “endings” to their quests but insinuate there’s more to come through dialogue and item descriptions (ex. Jerren side ending dialogue, last letter from Rya)
    Maybe Maliketh makes a return since we fight him in a place beyond time meaning he isn’t *truly* dead? You can’t kill Blaidd at all until he goes mad at the end of Rannis quest due to her abandoning and killing her own Two Fingers. And as far as we know, Queen Marika never slayed her fingers so maybe Gurranq was never cursed by the Greater Will to go mad but instead cursed by Marika with everlasting hunger for death as a means to protect the Rune of Death as a failsafe to keep them alive or “to die a true death” if her plan never worked out… god this game leaves so much room for interpretation

    • @jeremycu4571
      @jeremycu4571 Рік тому +3

      farum azula is the land beyond time, killing gurannq/ maliketh there is like killing him in the future( he might even be from a completely different timeline, souls games do this a lot w npcs having their own world, just that for a time, your worlds kind of link). Its further supported by the needle of miquella, it can only be completed in the center/ placidusax arena, since anywhere else it is still unfinished. As for his hunger for deathroot, I personally think its the destined death rune in his body that causes this, but its never actually mentioned and could very well be a curse from Marika. As for greater will cursing gurranq, I dont think there is a need. Blaidd was controlled to take down Ranni, Marika is with the elden beast already and crucified in the tree, greater will prob could have controlled gurranq, but theres no need.

  • @mhdragon1522
    @mhdragon1522 10 місяців тому

    Kind of already knew about all these quests. Despite what people think, a lot of Elden Ring quests are very forgiving in terms of progressing into new zones. The easiest example would be Roderika. The first part of her quest involves going to stormveil castle for the memento. But if you go to the roundtable before completing stormveil, she will will move there regardless and you can still complete her quest chain for spirit ashes upgrades. For Diallos if you miss him in Lirunia of the Lakes and go to Volcano Manor, you can still complete his quest line (just can't progress volcano manor too far.) Same with Patches. There are several cutoffs for quests however, completing character quests or killing bosses (Volcano Manor) will lock you out of the quests. For example giving Ranni the Fingerslayer blade and freeing Blaidd or progressing Ranni's quest for the first cursemark will cause Selves to die, as Blaidd kills him. For zones, there are two main cutoff points. The first is Atlus Plateau. If you get both medallions and take the lift you will miss Rya's quest and potentially Bogarts as well. (I always do her quest in every run, and go through the ruin strewn precipice.) It's also important that you buy from Bogart to get the "spread out" gesture which will get him to move to Atlus for the Dung Eater's quest. Another important cutoff is Mountaintops. If you go here without doing Yura's quest, he will automatically die and move here as Shabari. If you kill the fire giant and move to faram this ends many of the side quests like Nepali's quest along with npc invasions in Mountaintops. If you kill Maliketh is destroys Leyndell.

I still very thoroughly explored and enjoyed exploring so it was kind of bittersweet. Gaurantee out of my total run time I had atleast a couple hours total of glancing at my phone. Like I said bittersweet because the unspoken vague quest lines are kind of what from soft has always done and it’s ok, but with how big Elden ring is it felt 10x more amplified if that makes sense. Still a 8/10 game for me tho I enjoyed it.
