Uhmmmm.... @DaviVasc , I kinda wonder how you could possibly miss Miquella in the base game. I mean, the most significant demigod with two flowers, one butterfly and several weapons, npc's and bosses basically directly referencing him? The focus of the DLC? ^^;; Keep your eyes and ears open when playing the game, k?
The second phase fits the boss it represents so well... "Pure and radiant, he wields love to shrive clean the hearts of men. There is nothing more terrifying."
@@alextrill5829 Nah the underlying militaristic snare drums are still there, though in the background as if his will had been quashed to fit that vibe of miquella being in control.
Sir Ansbach, the true GOAT of the DLC, man, I loved that npc. "Yeah this is bullcrap and he used lord Mohg like trash, fuck this Miquella dude, beat the shit out of him"
17:34 at this point you can hear Radahn' choir come back for a bit, but way more quiet until the female vocals become even more intense almost cutting off Radahn' choir, I like to think of it as a window to show just how much of an overwhelming hold Miquella has on Radahn, tragic and beautiful
I’m pretty sure Miquella is mind controlling Radhan so it scarier that way, Radhan is coming back to his senses and Miquella is continuously erasing his mind
@@RedViIIain yes and it's a good thing. Plenty of people have beaten the fight in a variety of ways. Improve your skills instead of complaining. Next please.
"Ethereal but terrifying" is probably the best possible description of Miquella. Fascinating to see how this is reflected in the music and how well you deduced his character just from the theme. And don't worry, the anticipated explosion is there in the bossfight...
In the original Starscourge Radahn song, phase one was the memory of who he was, the warrior who ruled the battlefield. Phase two by contrast was a eulogy almost of the horror he has become, the beast he was degraded to. But then we get to Promised Consort Phase 1. And it is glorious. It's the Lion, returned to his prime. A moment worth celebrating far and wide. But even that has a small hint of sadness at the end, for said Lion has been leashed by a "kindly" master.
God damn I can hear exactly what your talking about, the somber tones going into phase 2 is exactly that feeling of Radahn being leashed, and then the rest of the song is primarily Miqeualla, that's amazing
When I learned who the Promised Consort was, I immediately thought two things. 1. It darn well better have the same melody as phase 2 of the original fight. 2. How would they make a solemn funeral march into something epic? Well, by Gwyn did they do both, because phase 1 has Proof of a Hero levels of "let's f*cking go" energy.
This fight is the first time to my knowledge, in the entire soulsborne series where we are facing a true god, at the height of their power. no fall from grace over thousands of years, no evil force weakening them, They are a truly Divine force and the fight itself matches that, as it is the single hardest fight fromsoft have ever made, seriously it is Psychotic how cracked this boss is.
Nameless King/Gwyndolin/Moon presence/Ebrietas were probably at the height of their power with nothing weakening them at the time of their fights and likely or definitely classify as gods in their respective games, if not including gods theres a good number of being at the height of their power with no discernible weakness like Gael/Isshin if including sekiro/Some Archdemons/Some of the dragons like Kalameet etc.
@@Kimaris-jg8zg the thing is we can't really do anything about it. I wish there was a side quest that lets us actually join or at least reason with Miquella. Miquella seems to be sane and reasonable.
CURSE YOU MIQUELLA! I HEREBY VOW, YOU WILL RUE THIS DAY! BEHOLD, A TRUE TARNISHED WARRIOR, AND I, MIMIC TEAR! YOUR FEARS MADE FLESH! HOLY OF DIVINITY YOU MIGHT BE FOUL GOD... BUT WE WILL RIDDLE WITH HOLES YOUR SHINY HAIR! WITH A HAIL OF L2's! WITH EVERY LAST DROP OF OUR BEING!
God of the New Order.. If you have known cheese.. if you grieve for this world.. Then yield the path forward to us.. To I.. Tarnished, and my promised consort.. Mimic Tear.
This theme is a masterpiece. Perfectly fits the occasion and grandeur of the battle. Really captures the characters splendidly. A perfect theme for the finale of this amazing game.
I love the fact they specifically reused the second part of Starscourge Radahns OST because it represents his former self before the scarlet rot. It’s a reminder of Radahns prime as true warrior, not a mindless beast. It makes sense because that’s exactly who you’re fighting on your final encounter with the mightiest demi god. It’s also an amazing detail that the loudest voice in phase 2 is Miquellas. After ascending godhood into he now stands above everyone and everything. Thousands of other voices, instruments and percussion play at the same time but not even a single one of them manages to drown out Miquellas heavenly prayers. One of the best soundtracks they ever made. The contrast of Radahns irrational lust for war and Miquellas dream of an age of compassion was executed perfectly.
It's pretty crazy how you can tell so much about a boss even though you're unfamiliar with their lore, and you hit the nail on the head on so many details in your analysis of this track. I guess it really tells you how tailor made and expertly crafted some OSTs are, where they perfectly fit the boss in question.
Serious question: does this "spoil" your own playthrough going through the OST beforehand? Or does it improve the overall experience when you get to these bosses in-game and realize either "wow I was on the money" or "wow I was way off on my analysis"?
It spoils it in the sense that I lose some of the in-game surprises, but in my unique case it's worth it because doing these videos blind is a ton of fun.
I absolutely do love watching these. The way he picks up exactly what is being put down, the loud bombastic melody to simbolize the red mane general and the holy ethereal voice drowning it under its control.
I would love to see you analyze "The Twin Moon Knight" next. It's one of the tracks in the dlc that I feel like went almost unnoticed by players and overshadowed by tracks like the Divine Beast, Messmer and Promised Consort and it deserves some time in the spotlight. It's my personal favorite theme in the dlc.
I love that when you said "it's becoming too crowded" on p2 I was like "Those siren calls are annoying! Shut it!" I'm pretty sure it's fitting to this battle. But oh gosh I didn't remember getting a kick out of Radhan's theme. I don't notice the difference between first theme and DLC theme that much without putting them side by side but the glorious turn that completely dissolves the rambling chants of into even more majesty and epicness is such a treat to listen to!
This is definitely one of the most epic OST I heard. Good to see davis reaction to it! There is also a mod that replaces the consort for Patches and Miyazaki. Its very funny.
Almost from the very beginning, remembering and realizing that the same musical motif plays that played in the battle with Radahn from the original game... it's very cool🔥
The way you break down and explain songs and the way chords are supposed to make you feel has genuinely made me have such a greater appreciation of music, thanks Davi.
The original song is that of a funeral. It's a sendoff to a great warrior who is finally being given the rest he deserves after all those hard-fought battles. This song, in its first phase, is Radahn's resurrection, and it heralds his grand return.
Yes, they lowered the pitch in second phase. Which was so freaking cool on a music level. Especially from a boss design perspective. Really impressed that you pointed that out. I’m a nerd for craft. OST composers are fun to listen to.
I'm very happy that you loved this song as much as I did. It is a whole different experience hearing it while fighting, Im very excited for you to get to it! Regardless of how far down the line that is, lol.
I wanna thank you for not spoiling the fight in the title, people who played it know already about this fight. I basically had to go offline entirely for 5 days to stay away from spoilers, even small let's players that never did it before started spoiling areas and bosses with this DLC.
The composers at FromSoft really knock it out of the park when someone who has not played the DLC can just listen to the music and gather: - the presence of Miquella - entering a new world/age - disturbing sense of benevolence standing where hostility should be - feeling that this new creation is so far above / away from us that we should not even be here
I know this final boss is....controversial (I for one adore it) but u can't deny this theme is outstanding, up there with the best in Fromsoft. Phase 1 feels like a 'complete' version of the Starscourge theme, marking the triumphant return of the strongest demigod, far closer to his prime power. And phase 2 is magical, marking the ascension of the newest god in the lands between, who seeks to exude their 'age of compassion' irrespective of the opinion of others . Happy but out of place is accurate, Miquella truly is terrifying Also I want to immortalise 8:32-it's so insanely funny and relatable
This soundtrack is the only reason I didn't mind dying over and over to this fight, is so good, granted, me being an anti-cheese souls enjoyer, went in with the intention of learning all the movesets, hence the lots of deaths, but yeah, always enjoy this soundtrack and fight. Also, it's funny how in 10:32 you mention "a decrease in intensity" musically speaking, because combat-wise, the fight itself becomes more intense 😂
If there is any track that can represent the wrath of a true God, it's this one. It's impossible to describe how much this OST just enters your body during this fight and you have, what I can only describe as a feeling of pure elation. In some From fights the OST can be more of a background that you may sometimes not hear due to focus on the boss. Not here. This tracks just WANTS your attention, music fights you with the boss, its so loud and you have to hold back the intense emotional reaction you feel because of hearing it. A wonderfull and godly ending to a godly game. Thank you Elden Ring.
Somewhere near the end, you can hear Radahns funeral motif in the lower voices, but it's so quiet it's barely noticeable. I think this represents something like Radahns autonomy being taken. I'd elaborate more but spoilers
I think this has to be the most epic song I've ever heard in the history of for ever, it's so good you can go back in time and present this to an audience and they'll think the gates of heaven have opened and God is coming in our aid
I've never been into Elden Ring, but I've only heard a little bit of it in this video so far. It's a very atmospheric song, similar to what the game is like, a Sols like
It's low key amazing how you came to a conclusion that "somehow you shouldn't even be fighting" the boss and how the theme sounds somewhat benevolent..
Theres a video by AirRice that combines both the first phase of Pronised Consort Radahn, and the second phase of Starscourge Radahn, and they fit very well with each other. I dont know if you want to make a video out of reacting to both versions being played at the same time, but its worth checking out.
Oh, man, I so want to get to that boss fight now. Still stuck in Liurnia of the Lakes, though. But so help me, I'll get there. 'Cause this fight (music) gives me the combined epicness of Owl (Father), the Divine Dragon and the Sword Saint in one badass package.
That other melody you recognized during the first fight might've been from another boss considering how this fight comes to be. I could be wrong and it's still from Radahn, will try to listen to everything after I finished your reaction though. I didn't mind dying to this because the music is so awesome but ultimately I was able to overcome this boss battle. It definitely was an intense experience and I'm glad I waited with watching reactions to the bosses until I was done.
The 2nd phase makes me feel like I am fighting a hero and not a villain at all. It feels like it is Miquella who is trying to overcome the Tarnished and not otherwise.
I think you said it was the dorian scale in the other video? I just want to add, even though it is a greek scale, it doesn't really stand in this context anymore for a long time, I mean dorian is a widely used scale nowadays, of course less than major or the minor scales but still. Ironically following this logic the major (Ionian) scale is also a greek scale and natural minor etc. So I think calling it "greek" could be a bit misleading for some people.
If you haven't, you should listen to the Gwyndolyn theme from DS1 and then react to the Aldrich track from DS3, that is played as Gwyndolyn is being eaten alive during the boss fight. My impression is that the really captured how the Aldrich theme is consuming the Gwyndolyn theme.
something im curious about is during the transition scene from phase one to two, Radhan has a moment where his aura glows red and he looks at us as if he's about to absolutely murder us until miquella enters into the arena and his aura changes into a golden color. So was Radahn basically "free" for a brief moment to fight in a glorious combat? The music in the first phase seems to suggest as much.
I'm having a ton of fun streaming my first ever playthrough of Elden Ring. You can catch the VODs here: ruclips.net/video/4ksadJshG94/видео.html
The tracks hit different when you're in the fight, good luck bro!

you are a hero for excluding spoilers in the title AND thumbnail. Lovable sort ahead, therefore praise the message.
"Ethereal but terrifying" is probably the best possible description of Miquella. Fascinating to see how this is reflected in the music and how well you deduced his character just from the theme.

Same
It's a contender for my favorite video game song ever.
In the original Starscourge Radahn song, phase one was the memory of who he was, the warrior who ruled the battlefield. Phase two by contrast was a eulogy almost of the horror he has become, the beast he was degraded to.
But then we get to Promised Consort Phase 1. And it is glorious. It's the Lion, returned to his prime. A moment worth celebrating far and wide. But even that has a small hint of sadness at the end, for said Lion has been leashed by a "kindly" master.
God damn I can hear exactly what your talking about, the somber tones going into phase 2 is exactly that feeling of Radahn being leashed, and then the rest of the song is primarily Miqeualla, that's amazing
The sense of overcrowding at the end is thematically relevant. There can only be one god and lord in an age. This battle determines who rules.
When I learned who the Promised Consort was, I immediately thought two things.
1. It darn well better have the same melody as phase 2 of the original fight.
2. How would they make a solemn funeral march into something epic?
Well, by Gwyn did they do both, because phase 1 has Proof of a Hero levels of "let's f*cking go" energy.
Couldn't have said it better
The Twin Prince's is also a good funeral march esc song.
Hard agree on the Proof of a Hero comment, I would absolutely beat a monster’s face in with Promised Consort’s Phase 1 blaring.
This fight is the first time to my knowledge, in the entire soulsborne series where we are facing a true god, at the height of their power. no fall from grace over thousands of years, no evil force weakening them, They are a truly Divine force and the fight itself matches that, as it is the single hardest fight fromsoft have ever made, seriously it is Psychotic how cracked this boss is.
I mean, unless the Soul of Cinder's strength is tied to how strong the First Flame burns, it qualifies as well.
I also love how it’s basically a fight for godhood. A 1v1 (well kinda) to determine who gets to be the god of the new world. Super cool moment
Nameless King/Gwyndolin/Moon presence/Ebrietas were probably at the height of their power with nothing weakening them at the time of their fights and likely or definitely classify as gods in their respective games, if not including gods theres a good number of being at the height of their power with no discernible weakness like Gael/Isshin if including sekiro/Some Archdemons/Some of the dragons like Kalameet etc.

Parrying is actually really good strategy for the boss. I'd say it's possibly even easier than dodging normally.
"Etheral and terrifying"

Always incredible how you never watch the footage, but you get anyway what’s happening
another stellar analysis! Can't wait for you to check out the "Putrescent Knight" track, my personal favourite of the entire dlc.
Glorious military theme transitioning into ethereal dream-like phase 2 mirrors the Final Battle.

Such a good track for an extremely tough boss
Despite him being puppeteered and brainwashed, the first phase of this fight is the closest to a fight with Radahn in his prime that we will ever get.
I wanna thank you for not spoiling the fight in the title, people who played it know already about this fight. I basically had to go offline entirely for 5 days to stay away from spoilers, even small let's players that never did it before started spoiling areas and bosses with this DLC.
The composers at FromSoft really knock it out of the park when someone who has not played the DLC can just listen to the music and gather:
- the presence of Miquella
- entering a new world/age
- disturbing sense of benevolence standing where hostility should be
- feeling that this new creation is so far above / away from us that we should not even be here

YESSSS FINALLY THE REACTION WE HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR!!
Been waiting for this this theme is so good
The rot boss also has a melody that echoes Malenia’s theme in an interesting way! Loved the musical callbacks to bosses from the main game
If there is any track that can represent the wrath of a true God, it's this one.
It's impossible to describe how much this OST just enters your body during this fight and you have, what I can only describe as a feeling of pure elation.
In some From fights the OST can be more of a background that you may sometimes not hear due to focus on the boss. Not here. This tracks just WANTS your attention, music fights you with the boss, its so loud and you have to hold back the intense emotional reaction you feel because of hearing it.

That's was a insane reaction! thanks 4 all!!! greetings from Chile
Never would have caught that they kept the chant in the harmony later in first phase. Good ear!
Promised consort let’s gooooo!
The entire DLC, and a chunk of the main game, is about a guy's elaborate conspiracy to gay marry his half-brother
😂
You know it's written by George R.R Martin when it contains incest.
It's low key amazing how you came to a conclusion that "somehow you shouldn't even be fighting" the boss and how the theme sounds somewhat benevolent..
Theres a video by AirRice that combines both the first phase of Pronised Consort Radahn, and the second phase of Starscourge Radahn, and they fit very well with each other. I dont know if you want to make a video out of reacting to both versions being played at the same time, but its worth checking out.
I enjoyed the reaction!
Now on the topic of Miquella, you should react to Malenia, Blade of Miquella theme from the same game 😁

Oh, man, I so want to get to that boss fight now.

So glad he listened to the radahn theme first to recognize it.
"They're clearly going for a decrease in intensity"
Then explain why it's suddenly RAINING LASERS! I'm fighting for my god damn life here!😭
The fact this dude recognized the male chorus in 1st phase from Starscourge Radahn is baffling because not even I recalled that
That other melody you recognized during the first fight might've been from another boss considering how this fight comes to be. I could be wrong and it's still from Radahn, will try to listen to everything after I finished your reaction though. I didn't mind dying to this because the music is so awesome but ultimately I was able to overcome this boss battle.

I think you said it was the dorian scale in the other video? I just want to add, even though it is a greek scale, it doesn't really stand in this context anymore for a long time, I mean dorian is a widely used scale nowadays, of course less than major or the minor scales but still. Ironically following this logic the major (Ionian) scale is also a greek scale and natural minor etc. So I think calling it "greek" could be a bit misleading for some people.
I enjoy these videos. Did he ever react to God Devouring Serpent from the base game?
damn, i never actually got to hear phase 2 over the screaming... just to clarify the screaming was from my fear
9:16 Where's the explosion? The player seeing their whole screen get filled with a laser show 😱
If you haven't, you should listen to the Gwyndolyn theme from DS1 and then react to the Aldrich track from DS3, that is played as Gwyndolyn is being eaten alive during the boss fight. My impression is that the really captured how the Aldrich theme is consuming the Gwyndolyn theme.
something im curious about is during the transition scene from phase one to two, Radhan has a moment where his aura glows red and he looks at us as if he's about to absolutely murder us until miquella enters into the arena and his aura changes into a golden color. So was Radahn basically "free" for a brief moment to fight in a glorious combat? The music in the first phase seems to suggest as much.
Miquella to Radahn reminds me of Serosh to Godfrey, golden mane and everything
