All for a throwaway questline in some f*ckoff corner of the map with no story significance. This man, by himself, will reveal the entire southern part of the dlc to many. One damn good voice actor. He might legitimately win VA of the year. I hope he's at least nominated.
@@courier6640throwaway questline my ass, might as well midir or kalameet are part of throwaway questline bruh Mr zaki loves a good dragon fight and has made sure the dlc of most of his games have at least one hidden away
It actually feels like it's Igon who is haunting Bayle, not the opposite. Imagine you are a severely injured dragon that just fries a hunter that hard, that he cannot even walk, and then this hunter's ghostly figure appears with another hunter, who is even stronger, and screams at you
@@user-fg2qd7lt8u Bayle and the ancient dragons do have intelligence. Bayles arms and legs are missing. Igons arms and legs are missing/left a bloody mess (he asks you to conjure his spirit using a finger he detaches from his destroyed limb).

@@ZephyrsOfficial Bayle's injuries (at least huge part of them) was inflicted by Plasidusax, the same way Plasidusax's 2 heads are gone due to the fight with Bayle, and it is the reason why dragon priestess was there, asking to kill Bayle
Igon is the best NPC in the history of souls. The embodiment of the player, that after dying countless times to the mighty boss, always come back angrier and cussing for the whole fight. That's totally me
@@audreyrewinded yea, I will. I have the seeker of fire mod that makes it genuinely good and also better than 3. But then I realize it's not Elden Ring and I go to play Elden Ring
I think what makes his performance so incredibly enjoyable to listen to is that as you start suffering from the raging madness of all the failed attempts, this is generally the range you start to hit lol, so its just incredibly like: yes, he gets it, and we are in this together XD he's just such an awesome supporting guy, "a true drake warrior, and I, Igon", hes like we in this together, and I think that's beautiful lol
@@scorpiowarrior7841 That whole Bayle fight is also quite a spectacle with all the lightning and flames around you. I'm honestly putting that battle off to finish it later. It feels like Bayle and Igon deserve that.
It’s the genuine hatred and anger in his voice that gets me. This is the voice of a man that has done this fight many many times. And he shall have his revenge.
I know I'm gonna get foamed for this, but I ended up killing Igon before starting his quest because I didn't know that he did anything and I wanted his armor. Please don't hate me, next run I won't kill him.
I think the amazing part about Igon is that alongside how much he hypes us up for this fight and helps us, we are also helping him. This is a quest for retribution, and when it's done we brought Igon's soul peace. It's literally as he says, his body is broken beyond repair but his spirit endures to fight with us. It's one of the most beautiful NPC questlines From has done and despite Igon dying it's a very happy and cathartic ending for his questline.
Agreed. Everyone likes to say how depressing most Souls NPCs are and how their questlines often end in a tragedy, but Igon (like Alexander for example) gets to go out with peace of mind, which is enough to make it a "good ending" to me.
So, if my boy Igon has two destroyed legs, and a broken arm, meaning this mf CRAWLED UP THE JAGGED MOUNTAIN, BY HIMSELF FIGHTING ALL MANNER OF DEMON AND DRAGON ON THE WAY JUST FOR THE SMOKE
CURSE YOU BAYLE! 🐲 I hereby vow! 💯 You will rue this day! ☀ Behold, a true drake warrior! 🤺 And I, Igon! 👨🦱 Your fear made flesh! 🥶 Solid of scale you might be, foul dragon... 💩 But I will riddle with holes your rotten hide! 🎯 With a hail of harpoons! 🏹
I usually try to solo bosses without summons, but after a while I realized this boss was too frustrating to be fought alone so I decided to summon this guy, and BOY am I glad I did. Definitely feels like the way the boss is intended to be fought.
To be honest I'm still too proud to summon him. But I maked a compromise with myself : if I'm able to nearly defeat Bayle at least 2-3 times with a flask left ,than I'm sure I'm able to defeat him solo. This way I had it my way but I also wouldn't miss out this amazing NPC.
as far as I am concerned any summon who's sign is actively *inside* the boss arena, (Igon at Bayle, Hornsent and Jolan at Messmer, Thollier at the putrescent knight etc. .) are fair game, they are *meant* to be summoned as the fight is part of their character arc
@@jacobdoswalt yeah I only found out about Jolan recently, but I had Hornsent with me for the fight, not sure exactly where you need to talk to him to trigger it, but his sign was there for me
Everyone is talking about the "curse you bayle" part But MAN!!!!!! the final part que he says "you shall Hunt me no longer".... bro, you can hear his voice crack and cry I feel you Igon, great drake warrior.
1:57 ngl it seems like Igon is on a brink of becoming mad. Btt seriously, I can't help but imagine him looking in his reflection in a small water pool in the mud, such an incredible delivery
My favorite bit is the “WITH A HAIL OF HARPOONS” bit. Like, every time I hear it the white whale holy grail song plays in my mind. Dude has one goal and he’s gonna reach it if it kills him
This guy is the only reason I used the summon during the fight. I needed to let that man have his vengeance and it was SO WORTH IT! CURRRRRSEEE YOU BAYLEEEEEE
Igon: You see Bayle! You aren’t dealing with just any ordinary drake warrior Bayle: What are you saying? Igon: This is a the warrior of legend haha oh yes the one drake warrior that you fear most! Bayle: You can’t be seri- Igon: The Tarnished here I had become the mighty SUPER SAIYA-uhh Super DRAKE WARRIOR! Bayle: For fuck sake Igon this shit again…
for someone disabled gotta respect my dude to his last drop he was a true warrior always hyping me before getting destroyed for dozen times but in the end it was his speech that i took to hearth , I WILL ALWAYS REMEMBER YOU MY FRIEND IGON , As the best npc for me in fromsoft games
Holy fuck this goes hard, hands down the best boss fight in the entire souls genre and that VA is out of this world i hope we will hear him in many more games
Man was almost dead, couldn't even walk, yet his spirit was alive and strong, waiting at the peak to do what he lived for: killing Bayle. I honestly love this character, even if he is afraid, in constant pain he still begs you to summon his spirit, so he can finally do what he set out to do and peace out.
With Dread Bayles defeat I went to where Igon's mortal body was since it was just his summon (his soul) help me, I proceed find nothing but a broken dead man leaving his stuff behind for the "Might Drake Warrior" (Us). But knowing his last words were that he wasn't going to be haunted anymore by BAYLE THE DREAD, possible his final will finished before he passed, brings me great happiness that at the least 1 more person in these shattered lands completed his life long mission and it didn't end in complete failure. May he STAND TALL with Thops finishing his legendary spell that only Ranni and Ronalla have made in the same type (Barrier Type spells that reflect magic) May he STAND TALL with War Counselor Iji (Dude took down multiple Black Knife Assassins defending Ranni so she can escape, knowing his end was coming but stood in defiance) May he STAND TALL with Iron Fist Alexander with his final fight to make him a true warrior in death May he STAND TALL with Diallos finding peace and forgiving himself in death to defend Jar village May he STAND TALL with Rya finding her own strength to walk on after begging you for death when everyone around her left her May he STAND TALL with Nepheli becoming the next lord of Limgrave with Kenneth Haight discovering her lineage of Royalty as well as a few others at the end of the road...
Best fight of the entire DLC for me. The voicelines, the music, when Bayle conjures his lightning wings.... that and the final boss was the only time i really had goosebumps to be fair.
Igon is the only NPC I willingly summoned to join my otherwise solo attempt at boss fights. Too wholesome (not literally) of a character to have him miss out on this epic scene of a battle!
Before the start of the DLC, before Bayle was revealed, I changed my character's name to Drake Hunter D. This story made the journey even more memorable
Richard Lintern (the VA for Igon) really fucking out-did himself here. it's crazy how hard his voice lines go. and the man is 61 years old! idk why, but I somehow find that wild.
I’m so sad. I noticed Hornsent’s sign, but not Igon’s. I just beat Bayle last night, and went on to go fihht mesmer, and was so surprised when the NPC started yelling shit. Come to find out I missed this legend.
Igon and Kendrick Lamar: the biggest haters of the year, both with the desire to slay a Drake
one of the smartest thing I have ever heard in a long time
Ngl it goes hard
Stand proud, you can cook
And both of them spit line of fires
Born to hate
"Behold, a True Drake Warrior, and I, Igon!" the way he hypes you up before himself had me fiending to kill Bayle
I just noticed he's talking about me and not him. Makes the fight even greater
i didn’t even realize this it makes it SO much better lmao like that’s really our guy fr
He's counting on us, definitely the truest homie.
Yep❤
Imagine if this guy knew we killed Placidusax... he'd see us as a god. even if he was weaker at the time.
most hinged souls player stuck on a boss.
I’m pretty sure once Bayle kills you enough you’d be screaming and or venting along side him even if not to the same level of fury
The moment I heard him I immediately thought they made the experience of being stuck on a boss into a character

Now imma need the Messmer OST with the Hornsent voiceline at the beginning. This DLC is peak voice acting
Agreed!❤
I’m so sad. I noticed Hornsent’s sign, but not Igon’s. I just beat Bayle last night, and went on to go fihht mesmer, and was so surprised when the NPC started yelling shit. Come to find out I missed this legend.
"So uh Miyazaki-san, how should I deliver this lines?"
"You know Kratos before God of War 4?"
"Yes"
"You know what to do"
Igon's VA didn't need to go this hard but I'm so glad he did because he is up there with Solaire.
3:05 Something about the musical cue with this line just hits heavy
