Whoever crafted that cutout in the mountain to reveal the underground during the descent deserves a fucking Emmy.
Best part is you actually reach that sideways building when you enter from the crater of the falling star and can see the elevator shaft you went down from the other side. It's not just foreshadowing what's below artificially because you actually go there too.
@@Bones_ one of the best parts of the game; even in some of the fking caves you look at things and go wow, amazing view… then find out you get to live in it later. It’s like traversing a real life mountain during a hike, and looking down to see where you started, but somehow more clever with the world building of progress and what the game remembers to show you; it’s a real world.Truly magnificent.
Praise the level design
@@Bones_bro so surreal when you realize you can like drop ALL the way down on ledges. Like end up going to every place you see there. It’s nuts.
yes
The Seven Stages of Siofra:
1- Oh what's this?
2- Hmmm seems to be going far down
3- Still going
4- I'm getting concerned
5- I've made a mistake
6- This is the most beautiful thing ever
7- Touch grace so I never have to do it again
Is it bad that it took me at least a few rides up and back down to Siofra on my first playthrough to realize I can toggle the map and just fast travel there? 😅
@@AlasdairGR Seeing the "switch map" button was just finding the subterranean lord vessel for you
@@Bones_ At least I didn't have to fight Godskin Duo to get access to it.
Stage 8: pronouncing Siofra River wrong
@@AlasdairGR lmao if it's any consolation I walked past that first grace about 5 times without seeing it.
Definitely one of the most memorable moments in the game
Yes amazing experience
im like 8 hours into the game and just discovered it, if this is one of the best places then man that game sucks compared to dark souls, they traded beautiful detailed locations for large empty landscapes with copy pasted ruins. Some games should stay linear...
@@Sheogorath- what are you smoking
Bλrney I agree with sun praiser.. what are you smoking
@@Sheogorath- smoking is bad for you, pls dont do it.
This is the moment where all Elden Ring players realised that this game is gonna be the game of the year
I only started playing recently since 2022 was an incredibly busy year and couldn't find time to play time absorbing games like Elden Ring until a few weeks ago, this was the moment I realised why this was game of the year though
Not me. I just started playing Again and still think if it had an actual story narrative it would be better. Idc for the lore i just play the game
@bombyo3634 the f you mean. "You just wanna play the game". Elden ring is a pure game, nothing but game play as soon as you enter limgrave.
I think you mean you just wanna watch a movie instead of experiencing a game.
@@bombyo3634 An actual narrative is overrated as shit. Soulsborne games need subtle storytelling for them to work. Fromsoft can make typical narratives and make them amazing if they want, like Sekiro, but it's not necessary otherwise.
@@bombyo3634No, thank you. Please refer to GoW and others for lengthy cutscenes. We nerds are happy, scrapping for tiny pieces of lore scattered throughout the world. After all, ITS NOT SO HARD to read a few lines of text here and there. Well, at least for some people.
In my 20 years of gaming, this is easily a top 5 moment for me. Elden Ring is truly an unforgettable adventure
What’s your other 4?
25 years for me and I feel the same way. Made me feel like a kid again
@@californiansniper2133 I have realized that the age at which you experience a game plays a big part on the impact of the game.
1. Zelda Ocarina of Time
2. Halo 1,2, and 3
3. Fallout 3
4. Skyrim
5. Elden Ring
That's my top 5 off the top of my head lol.
@@travisoutlaw9511 there's nothing like the first 3 halo games and bo2 zombies
True , I'm 34 n been playing since NES Mario. N I play all genre of games. N elden ring had me grind out 200 hours in a month. Late night plays like when I was a kid. This game def is 1 of my Goat picks
I’m so happy Elden Ring won GOTY. Moments like this are so rare in video games
100%!
Yep
DUDE! i got so upset when people called elden ring shallow, empty and has no story. Like really guys ?? look at THIS
@@N5FX Not all the Tarnished were qualified to claim the Elden Throne. Have they finished the game?
@@N5FX It's almost like people are naturally biased and resort to half assed arguments to support their narrative
Other developers would've definitely made this and other areas dlc. From Software is a jewel.
Or at least put it out in the open with lights and flares and map markers pointing to it
Fromsoft just hides it in a Forrest like “yea you could find it now or later it’s up to you”
@@myfatassdick the fact they don’t hold your hand and actually let you find stuff in the open world yourself is a breath of fresh air in a genre that treats you like a baby by taking the exploration away from you
Makes me superexcited for the dlc
Any other Dev would have easily made 2 dlcs from the base map of elden ring
@@shreeanshmahapatra2313 The entire underground area + ranni's quest and ending would've been dlc. Maybe even the entire Haligtree would've been a part of a separate 2nd dlc.
This is why graphics don't really matter when the art direction was already beautiful
Not to mention that elden ring graphic is beutiful and I gald they don't go to photo realistic
@@luckyadrianhutapeavirgin photorealistic graphics vs chad stylized and creative art direction
If only my bedroom gaming tv was 4K or at least 1080p! Ugh!
Yes and no, after playing Demon's Soul's Remake now Elden Ring seems disappointly shit to me.
Art direction may be more important than graphics, but the problem is when you play a similar game that has both, then the other game just looks meh.
Not to mention the animations are also much better in Demon's Soul's, and you actually feel like there's weight to stuff.
@@ImnusToo bad the Demon’s Souls Remake didn’t have even half the story/content as Elden Ring and was far from memorable, hence why it flopped and fell off the grid so hard 🤦🏾♂️. It was a soulless cash grab.
I've done multiple runs of this game by now. But nothing ever beats the first time - and this moment pretty much sums it up and defines what makes this game so special.
From Software does it again
One more month!!!!
@@archangelgabriel531613 hours
I love how just that little partial view of the ghostly purple sky with the false stars and the massive architecture just melts everyone's minds in similar ways. I'm so glad to have experienced finding this on my own with no indication it existed as well, such a great moment and a big reason to never spoil games, books, or film before diving in.
I had a feeling this game would be special, but it exceeded my expectations. I remember getting to play it 2 hours before work on Feb 25th, then being excited to play it the next days. I feel like the short bursts made the experience so magical because it forced me to pay attention. I got to this area 9 hours in, if you ask me how I remember it's probably because this part blew my mind.
ive talked to my girl about this: the director of photography or whatever the fuck it is in gaming, was on fucking heaven's heroin for this one, i tell you
it is insane the amount of times the game sets up a PERFECT arch of like, discovery, and emotion.
the first time in limgrave, someone has talked about this, like you see tthe erdtreee, the entire limgrave, the castle, the bridge, like...
a shit ton of teleports aswell, when you come out of caves to caelid for example. you get the whole picture, an actual painting, as you come out the cave and start seeing that crazy shit with the red sky
apart from games on rails and with fixed cameras or cutscenes, i literally cant think of any other game that has had this fucking deep powerful visual revelations scattered ALL OVER THE ENTIRE FUCKING HUGE MAP
sorry for the rant, this game's just absolutely gorgeous and i only just now beat morgott
My only indication was a mighty keef parody. And he was pretty vague
@@yurilopes420 When you exit Stormveil and BAM!, Liurnia with the Academy towering over it
same. just randomly stumbling on this in the game was the most awesome exploration experience a game can give you.
This moment is one of the best in gaming I’ve ever had. I ran in here being chased by a Runebear thinking it was a normal dungeon and then you discover it’s an entire underground city. You feel so small and it feels like the world just opens up and you realize how big everything is
Indeed!!!
The only thing I regret from playing Elden Ring is that I can't erase my memories to enjoy this game for the first time again...
i'd sell my soul to the devil just to experience dark souls 1,2,3, sekiro and elden ring for the first time again.
@@Cricket0021Ever since DS2 I’ve learnt to take my first play through of each new game slow, I open myself to the world (can’t do that with AC6 though shits fast af 😂)
I want to enter leyndell for the 1st time again.
@@Cricket0021 don't worry dude, you won't have to do that.. because the creators are giving us DLC that is going to be just as big and interesting.
Dude, Leyndell for the first time, man... it was surreal. Hopefully the DLC can give us moments like this
I thought the entire map was just Lyndell and I was like “nah, the map is already too big” then i saw Caelid,i thought that was the last area, then there was the underground and night city then more and waaaaaa
discovering the map piece by piece blows your mind every time, can't wait for the DLCs
you mean limgrave, not leyndell.
Exactly mee
@@xyzzzzz01 ah yeah, correct
Yep, it's a different style of world building, completley superior
This is to me, Elden Ring’s “overlooking the Great Plateau for the first time moment”. I absolutely lost my shut when it happened.
Nah this is different, the overlooking great plateau part is just showing how beautiful the world is and true it was jaw dropping but this moment gives you ... I can't even put it into words. So many feelings at the same time when I took down that elevator
@@LuffyL-ch1ku have you played of tears of the kingdom? 😉
@@sebadrum16 sadly not yet, have exams soon so it'll have to wait a bit
@@LuffyL-ch1ku Gives you that feeling that there really is way more than you originally expected... There was already soooo much to still do up top, and then they show you an entire city below lol.
@@JBMetalProductions yea exactly
We thought the jump button was there for us to finally be able to enjoy some verticality.
In actuality, the verticality was there for Miyazaki; the jump button just enabled him to go big.
I have played video games since ps1 so thats more than 20 years, accidentally discovering siophra river is probably one of the best feelings in my video game history.
The crazy thing is this: Every building, every platform, essentially everything you can see you can reach. Elden Ring really mastered Open World like no one else, because you know, that if you can see it, you can reach it.
It's like entering ash lake in ds1 for the first time.
This was my first Fromsoft game. Let me tell you, when I got here, I Realized that this was like no other game ive played before…I got chills with the music. The first playthrough was MAGICAL and will forever hold a special place in my life. Thank You Elden Ring ❤
It drives me nuts when they look away from the incredible view
IKR
Can we be honest, most people are surface level basic bitches. Learned that out real quick watching random people play Silent Hill 2.
Remarkable what they were able to do with this game.. I'm so blown away by the quiet development of this masterpiece, everything fromsoft learned during their run, only being announced when it was close to done- and then to not only deliver on the ABSURD hype the trailer brought, but to EXCEED it, is genuinely rare these days
I will never forget this moment. Even rewatching these reactions now -- chills. Not to be cheesy, but ART.
I couldn't agree more, Elden ring is the most incredible fantasy art peice I've ever experienced and it's so awesome to share that with other people but all feel like we had a personal experience with it
"I am not sure I should be here." - That was my first reaction.
For anyone wondering, it's pronounced Sheef-ra. It's an Irish name.
thank you! irish names are really fascinating, the fact most really don’t know how to pronounce many of them is sad
@@abraham3673not it's not🤦♀️
@@kiiturii
oh really? care to say how it’s actually pronounced?
@@abraham3673 I'm saying there is nothing sad about it bruh
@@kiiturii
… then why reply? it’s just my opinion. i didn’t ask for yours.
when you thought the overworld is big then you find another entire different world below it. Man that feeling is one of a kind.
I was by myself when I was playing this and my jaw dropped. One of the most memorable moments I’ve had in gaming
私も彼らと同じように、「待って、これはどこまで降りるの？」と思いましたね。 もちろんそのあと絶景を見て言葉を失いました。
i would love to experience this game for the first time again
@@cm4n63I nearly did, but then I recovered my cloud-save. 😅
Man I wanna see their reactions to the city of Nokron. I was blown away by how it looked like we just went into outer space and there's just a city in the middle of it. That was an amazing moment for me
Elden Ring brought back a magic long lost in the game industry!! Really a memorable game!
actually one of my favorite gaming moments ever
I love how the view of the new sky draws everyones eyes towards it like it’s magnetic. Fromsoft really knows how to design their levels for the experience. And the background music fading up really amplifies the effect.
This descent into the unexpected is one of the most memorable moments in this game for me.
What I love above all else about the moment you stumble upon this place is that it is the moment Elden Ring sets itself apart from any other game...
There's a freaking entire map under the map, and there are like 4-5 secret zones with some having secret zones hidden inside them... and NONE of them are marked, you don't get told to go there, it's not the typical modern AAA crap of: Hey, we spent money making this content so here's a marker so you know you have to go there and "discover" it. Elden Ring just has it there, and if you find it good for you, if not then better luck next time.
Elden Ring is a game that doesn't treat the player like an idiot. Elden Ring is a game that is not afraid to be played. And that's why no other AAA studio can emulate the sheer sense of discovery that From Software achieves with their games.
miyazaki: oh you think youre done outside? go check the fckin basement!
This moment fucking blew me away and I realized I wasn’t jus t playing dark souls 3.5, I was playing one of the greatest open world games of all time
Finding Siofra was like finding Blackreach in Skyrim except even better
i love being able to live vicariously through watching everyone’s reactions. i would do just about anything to be able to experience this for the first time again 😌
This game mastered and set the standard for atmosphere and world design. The definition of epic.
I cannot recall or remember all the wow moments I had when I had my first playthrough and saw things for the first time, music kicking in and just getting dragged and pulled into this world and watched in awe.
Elden Ring also is easily the game where I took the most screenshots.
That moment when you realise there's levels to this game, quite literally.
this area is insane. elden ring is just a masterpiece.
All time gaming moment for me
Discovering the Eternal City and Haligtree were amazing first time experiences
Actually landing in Farum Azula too, where high-end gear and stats are necessary!
People should remember this and understand why er won best art direction
Sephora River lol
She-Fra, Underground Palace Of Power
I think they were trying to recapture the magic of that elevator ride in Dark Souls from the Undead Parish back down to Firelink Shrine,
one of the most memorable moments in their games because it showcased the incredibly interconnected and vertical map design that DS1 had,
which I haven't seen done so well in any game before or since. The way the wall cracks open and what you thought was some underground area turns into a whole world especially.
I thought the entire map was Limgrave at first, but then I encountered this…
That moment you open the map and see the words, "show above ground," 🤯
*⬆️Rising Up plays*
*⬇️A-Ki-Ra plays*
Totally unexpected when i discover this. After +30 years playing games this is one of my top moments ever
Honestly, when I found this place, I felt completely overwhelmed, but in the best way possible. The game just kept reminding me of how much there is to do and to discover. I love it to this day. Can't wait for the DLC.
The more I played. The more I was in awe... it is literally the best game ever made and it's not even the last of its kind...
"Oh my god, it's beautiful... holy shit!"
Somebody send Ubisoft and Guerrilla Games this clip with a note explaining the difference between graphical fidelity and art direction.
This game has topped my alltime favourite rpg skyrim of its place...best game ever created and a true show of passion and sheer talent at fromsoft
Siofra River Well is a vibe dude
Pre-Release: Wow, this game big.
Release: WOW, THIS GAME BIG
Discovering all locations: HOLY SHIT, DIS GAME BIIIIIIIGGGGGGG
DLC: *H U G H M U N G U S*
I remember taking my 2 friends down there together, and their reactions were so fucking funny XD. They're like "wait a second"...
its just so funny, because there is still so much to still do up top at this point in the game, and then they show you a space just as big as where you just were is insane LMAO.
The reward for exploring in this game is legendary and unmatched. I hope future Open World Games take notice.
This was the moment i fell in love with Elden Ring
If only I had a Time Machine.
I remember my first time I was like " Am I in space!? did I reach the somewhere in the cosmos!?"
You reached The Underdark! Have fun with giant spiders and evil elves! lmfao
@@chrisnichols9014 Maybe
This game has so many memorable moments and areas. I'd never seen anything like Siofra in a game before this.
i love how this is obvious hidden loading screen but this is 100x times better than any loading in starfield.
I mean it doesn't take that long to load in if you just fast travel there, so it's not really about the load screen. They just make you take the elevator ride to feel the depth of the underground that you're going down to. Then because they respect your time, they put a site of grace straight there so you don't have to sit through it again!
@spiderwebb222 masking a loading screen means there is no loading screen or any visible way to tell the game is loading a new area. From has used this trick since dark souls. It doesn't need the whole long elevator ride for the whole loading but the comment is correct that this elevator is loading the new area and unloading limgrave stuff from memory as you go down
the unravelling of the under world of elden ring is one of the most memorable thing I ever did in a game
This was my most memorable moments of any game ever.
Same. Just breathtaking.
"I know a good deal when I see one. Unfortunately, I am blind."
oh yes, the good old Sephora river 4:28 😅
"The first time you get to Siofra River, where you blinded by it's majesty?"
It was just so sooo random, then it happens and my mouth dropped open like blown away
The sense of awe you get from your first playthrough is something I haven’t experienced since Skyrim
Nokron was a huge WTF moment for me
Yeah it was pretty cool descending into the crater, rocks all hovering above
Easily the best game ever made.
Ending with two hillbillies perfect
This was the exact moment where my feeing of being underwhelmed with Limgrave quickly shifted to “Wow, FromSoft did it again” and I proceeded to have like 5 more of these moments throughout the game
what i like about the underground sections of the game is that From could've easily made them into a DLC sized location but they didn't. Like the idea of underground places could've been DLC, but instead its in the base game! I can't imagine how massive the Miquella DLC will be on release.
@@Cricket0021If it’s even a quarter the map of base game it’ll be incredible. Here’s hoping there’s at least 1 underground section.
In the first hour of playing this game, I got teleported to Caelid after opening a chest. Then another 2 hours later, I stumbled onto this. At that point I realized I was playing a game I would need a lifetime for to complete, but would love every second of it
God I miss seeing this for the first time. Blew my freaking mind.
I wasn’t this excited to game since the release of tbc wow.
One of those you'd never expect moments in a video game. Elden ring is a masterpiece they weren't kidding that everything you see on screen you can reach and it was amazing that there was a whole fricking another world below it.
I still remember my first playthrough. When I found that elevator I told my friend all about it and how freaking huge the map must be, little did we know it would end up being even bigger than we thought back then.
Easily one of my favorite games by now, absolutely love it.
Right my brother said the same thing. He never liked DS3 but Elden ring changed him. He kept showing me shit I’ve already found but I let him talk about it. After finishing ER he got all the way up to pontiff sulyvan in DS3.
@@Salmon_Toastie Thats so cool! The game that really changed me was Sekiro. After that I played all Dark Souls. Sadly I still am waiting to play bloodborne. Hopefully its comes to pc eventually.
@@stormdivision617 Same bro ive had a taste of bloodborne on my mates ps4 but i can't deal with the framerate ahaha.
@@stormdivision617I'm definitely trying Sekiro next Elden Ring made a big impression on me i can't bring myself to rush everything. Literally been playing it for a week so far and still haven't found so many secrets yet. It's amazing how huge it is
@@jojomuppet1820 It’s definitely something different. Much more linear, smaller and entirely different combat style.
But once you get the combat down and the whole ‘hesitation is defeat’ thing sinks in, it’s literally the best combat system I have experienced.
It’s super satisfying and cinematic, very rewarding too.
When video games bring that level of exploration and tension back… it’s more than just a game
Elden ring, by far the best game
Elden Ring was a vibe.
That place and the first sight of Irithyl are the reason why I play Fromoft games totaly blind and without any information except for official trailers
Blows my mind really, that creators can craft whatever their minds come up with, and yet truly memorable moments like this are so rare.
Just for those who like to know: It's pronounced something like Sheefra.. it's an Irish first name meaning elf/fairy... Only reason I knew is cause it's the first name of a good friend.
Nice! Thanks for sharing!
That's really fascinating! This place really feels like fairies and Elves definitely could've lived there at one point with how mystical it looks
Us Irish were all magical fairy folk until alcohol was invented
The Elden Ring team are the kind of developers that can simply make a long elevator ride, and manage to make it such a game changing experience, it's worth compiling reactions to.
Such a breathtaking moment so true haven explored this floor completely yet
This absolutely deserved Game of The Year no matter what it was up against. I wish I could play this for the first time perpetually .
Great vid! This was the most memorable reveal for me, had me crying and laughing at the same time 😂 gg FromSoft
That moment when the eerie hum enters your ear and you see the hundred-foot tall pillars. It is mind blowing.
Moment was surely memorable and a pleasure to watch, plus that ambient music
I’m about 12 hours into the game. I have run out of superlatives. When I got to this part all I could do is just ask “what!?” with my jaw hanging open.
Maybe the most incredible moment in a game chock full of incredible moments.
A Reaction Compilation that actually credits who the clips are from? Nice
everyone knows how hard it is to even create 1 fromsoftware type level that interconnects with shortcuts and just fits with everything and this is simply amazing world design achievement
I'm so glad I found this elevator before spoiling it for myself. Back when this game first came out, everyone was racing to find every nook and cranny of the game. I was too, but it was the first souls game I really got into so I was going relatively slowly. I did play ds3 before but only like 15-20 hours. This moment stood out to me in a game with a bunch of standout moments. It represented to me the incredible vastness of the lands between. From Software added so much stuff to see everywhere that it creates the magic of a perfectly curated story. Stories with magic tend to let on that there is more to the world than what the audience sees. It captures the imagination and fosters dedicated communities. This can be difficult to do in a videogame, because the developers have limitations to how much they can reasonably make. A player can easily test the limits of the world by hitting an invisible barrier or similar acts that break immersion. Elden Ring ignores this trend by making a huge world with lots of hidden content. When the player tests the limits of the world, they might be disappointed, or they might be amazed by a secret area or item or boss. The effort this must have taken to make the player feel the organic excitement of exploration must have been immense.
This was biggest WOW in 27 year of my gaming history, trully masterfully done.
I still can’t wrap my mind around siofra river. Fromsoft put a whole map under this tiny gazebo that could easily go unnoticed by many players. It was pure magic when I randomly found it.
I was running from a rune bear and I just ducked into this random building, accidentally triggered the elevator, and the rest was the best video game moment I’ve ever had.
Stunning. And your expression says it all! Beautiful game
Can you imagine if Shadows of the Colossus actually had a secret level like this that nobody’s found yet. Some random player would suddenly stumble upon the area, and discover all the unused colossi in it.
The Hero of the first game climbing out off that tower, but as a boss.
One of the favourite moments from my 30 years gaming. I had goosebumps when I saw the skyscape and heard the music, it hit me so hard I even had a tear in my eye. This game is so special. Moments like this is why I love games so much.
Elden ring 2 if it ever comes out, I’m going in spoiler free just so I can experience shit like this
I wish I could wipe my memory of this game JUST so I could relive it all for the first time all over again. The thrill of discovery is one of the greatest things about this game..
Welcome to Siofra (Irish for fairy/fae) River. Loved it.
