“Life sprouts from death, as it does from birth. Such is the way of the living.”
-Remembrance of the Regal Ancestor
I had a very, "wait, am I the bad guy?" moment in the battle. (The fact that I was spraying it with black fire and scarlet rot didn't help my case.)
Lol 😂😂😂
Hey I used the flames of frenzy, I've got no room to judge. 😅
I used the gravity stone fling ability
Aw man, I found the one in the Siobhra Well and I was so entranced by the visual and music that I just let it happen.
I dont even know why Im there as a cleric style character, I dont know what it gives me or why it was so neglected and corrupted, but dang, was I entranced.
Is it even worth killing? Kinda don't want to.
Don’t worry man it literally steals life
This music is ethereal. This is the only boss in this game, maybe even ever, that genuinely made me not feel fear, excitement or tension, but instead it made me feel a bit melancholic with its majestic and beautiful style. It's the only boss where I stood in place contemplating whether I should finish the fight or not because every moment of it was great.
Ethereal.. That's the word!!
If you want to feel melancholic you should fight Emma in sekiro 😢
Well said.
Fr bro I was so unhappy when I finished it like great you beat another boss but then this one was so special :(
same
Dude I felt completely empty after this fight, like I literally sat there thinking that I killed this poor thing who probably didn’t even want to fight in the first place.
I had a hard time in this fight. Not from the hit boxes or the patterns of combat. But the desire to admire both the creature and the music as long as possible without finishing the fight too quickly because of how much I thoroughly enjoyed the music playing. This game is a true masterpiece.
Same man. The music and boss are just so beautiful. I would love to know the lore behind it. Everything about this boss is amazing
I tried, but the boss clipped into the ground and died instantly. I was sad over losing the chance to properly fight it as well not getting to admire it once more.
@@nobuffer101 that kinda sucks man. For some reason I feel bad about killing him. I wanna know the lore behind it. I just barged into it’s territory and killed it. And it makes it worse that it’s a relatively easy boss so u feel like it’s defenseless
This is my favorite fight and ost so far.
Yeah this boss was clearly more about the ambience and the music than the fight, *chef's kiss*
The Ancestor Spirits honestly have this feeling that they have been around far longer than anything else in the Lands Between. Like even predating Queen Marika herself. Maybe even predating the Erdtree. They have that true primordial being kinda vibe to them.
Definitely the intention. An ancient spirit that acts as the manifestation of the cosmic cycle of death & rebirth, a wheel spinning outside the purview of the tree.
I felt like in slaying the beast it was not permanent but would return again, grown out of the deaths and births that occurred over time, in a new form of renewed. Endless.
It's clearly intended. The item the boss loots say the cult of the ancestors are anterior to the tree's magic. Also the whole temple and city are in the middle of an ancestral forest full of giant fossilized trees (the sharp "rock" spears in the landscape)
@@sudanemamimikiki1527 Perhaps now, but not always, we know there was a time before the Erdtree, before the Greater Will sent down its golden stars, perhaps before the Greater Will was even in power
@@Kalpitahoover it clearly is representative of prehistoric civilisation upon which medieval people's were built on. You had a similar thing in Game of Thrones with the Children of the Forest.
True, but this implies a being / force that predates abs exists beyond the purview of the erd tree, similar to the death rite birds and the Black Death flame they guarded etc
This sounds like an awesome mashup of european and east asian music, which is exactly representative of what elden ring is
I was getting major proto-Celtic vibes, like this is a deer god from some shamanistic or pagan era in European history. I think the area set up a similar point, with all the nature worship from the local enemies.
@@odststalker5117 Cernunnos
What are some East Asian things you noticed in the game other than the samurai npcs? I thought it was more Norse, Knighty and Native American
@@odststalker5117 Its also similar to Fields of Skelige music from witcher 3 which is based on celtic music
@@rohanchintarlapalli415 I meant it more in the abstract, since fromsoft is an eastern company. They're telling something that feels nordic in aesthetic and tone in a distinctly eastern way.
The moment Elden Ring became the most beautiful Zelda Boss Ive ever fought.
I honestly got more Witcher vibes from him especially the music
@@viorp5267 That's because this entire location is strongly Celtic in its inspiration.
@@TheStraightestWhitest Yeah certainly. i'd say maybe overall tribal vibes? It very much so feels like there is celt, slav and native american there.
The monster itself feels very wendigo with the skeletal deer and soul absorption.
@@viorp5267 Well what's interesting is that when rumors of a collab game from GRRM and Miyazaki started circling, a game called Great Rune (meaning the leaks were 100% accurate since that's exactly what the Elden Ring is), it was dubbed a Viking/Scandinavian Soulsborne open world.
And ever since the game released, I've found that more interesting than ever, because among the first inhabitants of the Lands Between were the Ancestral Followers, who are basically like tribal stone age Vikings. So the rumors were accurate. That was the basis of the game, that was the first thing in development because it was the history of the Lands Between.
It gives some amazing insight into the world building of this game. It means that From Software layered the history of their world identical to how real life was layered. Stone Age < Bronze Age < Iron Age < Middle Age.
The Lands Between went through the same cycle, and were built that way from the ground up. The Ancestral Followers were the pagan tribalistic Stone Age, driven underground by religion and the Bronze and Iron Ages, which was the Crucible's era and then the Golden Order's era in that order.
@@TheStraightestWhitest the history forks a lot too and was very diverse. Afterall the misbegotten were a thing.
There was a whole age ruled by dragons and their beastmen followers. The lore is extremely interesting. And while the chronology is complex it is underlined by this progression from wood/bone, to stone to bronze and steel
During this battle, I didn't feel what every other boss made me feel. No anger, no excitement, no fear. But instead, I was awestruck. This was no beast to slay, no warrior to conquer, no horror to destroy. This was an true, wild and ancient spirit unfathomably old, and my efforts to ignite all of the flames to call it were enough that it deigned to give me this test of will and resolve. No ashes of war. No summons. No magic. This being made me feel like it deserved my absolute respect, and so it was given. Blade against antlers, shield against it's ethereal might. I didn't know I could feel this from a game, but this boss stirred my heart. I can only give FromSoft all the credit they deserve for making an unforgettable boss fight. This one was a masterpiece.
Your comment ❤
bro said no magic but turtled with a shield which is worse lmao
The toughest enemy in this fight:
-The music.
For me the toughest enemy was my heart😢😪
@@xxkamuixx7264 My heart was also dead from this fight
the toughest enemy was yourself.
I know many feel like the villain in this but I actually feel like this is a battle of respect. Kind of like Radahn in a way. The two of you are not fighting out of hatred but out of a respect for each other’s power. It’s a competition that you won. The spirit was laid to rest after likely many victories.
Late but I fully agree, it’s already dead and comes across much more as an honorable duel with the memory of a great creature than the murder of an innocent one to me
This is inspiration for my next druid char at my dnd table. Melancholy.
Hmm...maybe its time I tried druids out.
The world of Elden Ring seems like such a good setting for a D&D campaign!
I had the same thought. Druid, Ranger, or possibly a warlock patron.
Time of druids is now and strong
@@TheBl0rp Indeed. Using Wolf pack, Giant Rat, Hawk summons. Pyromancy and Gravity magic. Beast,& Aspect of the Crucible Incantations. You can very well play a Druid in Elder Ring.
This is literally the definition of what exactly you should do for a boss fight to remember....a beautiful creature that no one really wants to kill but have no choice, a killer soundtrack of sadness mixed with tension and that ending was not expected...im gonna miss this boss
I feel what makes it more memorable is that you DID had a choice, giving its entirely optional. The fact it actually makes you reconsider if you are doing the right thing is what makes it so awesome
You have a choice by not kill it, it optional tho.
@@MR-gv4bv some of us didn’t know we had a choice, some of us went boss hunting and came across this
For me I was fascinated and left at wonder as soon as the music started
I felt like I was laying a restless spirit to rest in this fight. Couldn’t help but emote in respect with a simple prayer when done.
I feverishly keep on writing those golden words in the air before me, just for a chance to experience this encounter again.
This boss fight ranked at number 1 easily because of the music alone for me. Such beauty and elegance in a creature that you are forced to kill once entering its domain. If only there was an option to sit in the fight in peace with it while the music played, that would be dope, and I’d sit there for literal hours just admiring the spirit and music
I would love a pacifist mode for that fight where if you go in with no weapons equipped the boss sees you as not a threat and the music plays but the boss just walks up to you and lays down near you
UGHHHHH NOW I WANT TO LEARN TO MOD JUST SO I CAN CREATE THIS
@Aces_Agen_Aro or maybe a zone at the entrance of the arena where the boss wouldn't agro, and the fight only starting if you approach. A bit like how some bosses don't start with fog walls, and they only appear after they've aggroed
@@VeeOasisdamn bro that will be godly
A truly beautiful theme for such a moving battle
The ancestor spirits are really mysterious entities in the lore, one thing i noticed is that many of the powers in the setting are connected only to a single aspect reality, like life, death or rot, this spirits are connected to the entire cycle of life-death-rebith, shame we never got a mending rune from this entities.
"mending rune of nature" and it just reverts everything the greater will did and nature rapidly overtakes whats left of the lands between, restoring balance between life and death
A boss fight not made to challenge the player, but to give them a beautiful experience. For me this felt like first stepping into Ash Lake in DS1.
I thanked Regal Ancestor from the bottom of my heart for permitting me an audience.
I absolutely love the music composition for this boss fight. I forced my friends to turn music up super high just for it when we fight it
This entire fight felt like a scene out of Princess Mononoke. So magical, but I had to try my hardest to not absolutely obliterate this guy so I could enjoy him for a little bit
I fought a grand trial, lighting its torches.
I met the regal beast in its home, a plane for the spirits.
And after showing him my power, I was given a gift of ashes. A servant who would follow me and save me throughout the rest of my journey.
The entire Siofra River well experience was nothing short of amazing.
I love this interpretation. Very nice
@@cloud4579 I mean, it's also literally what I did. That Ancestral Follower summon carried me through Malenia.
I just finished the well. A surreal, amazing experience. Your words summarize my feelings perfectly.
I don't know what it is about this boss, but there's just something about it that's so beautiful and majestic
I felt sad after killing it, even though we hardly know anything about this ancient beautiful creature, aside from the fact that it is apparently from beyond the erdtree
Don't be. We either laid a restless spirit to rest or it tested us in some kind of challenge. Besides, when we ''kill'' it the remains still glow whixh means that it still leaves somewhere.
Now that’s a pretty meme, exquisite!
Such a beautiful fight. Not hard in the slightest, but simply majestic in every way
i imagine this thing prancing through a forest made of stars flying over the eternal cities at their prime. prog rock level imagery
As someone who defeated the first (not Regal) Ancestor Spirit recently, this is my favorite OST in the game, hands down. Ethereal and mesmerizing are only two words to describe how this made me feel the first time, among many more.
Some of you questioned whether you were the "bad guy" in this fight, and I believe it's all a matter of perspective. I was playing as a Samurai, and from my point of view, the battle was a test of strength, a rite of passage from the ancestral spirits of the Lands Between. I felt nothing but awe and respect as I fought this enormous moose, far past its prime, but still so powerful, even in death.
As a Samurai, it became my duty to bring peace to this beast's restless spirit. It was the honorable thing to do, as a show of respect for its power. Yeah, this moment in the game is going to stick with me for a long time...
The music really captured the essence of this boss perfectly. A graceful creature from very very long ago, awakened from its slumber. You do not belong here, and you question your morality upon defeating it.
Anyone who says this game isn’t influenced by Celtic mythology is wrong. This is basically cernunonos
Shame the great elks of Ireland went extinct long ago.
Visions of regret
Visions of sadness
There was something different about this one. For the first time I was truly awestruck in a boss fight. It felt so primordial, ancient, like I was this small thing that had intruded on something sacred and old. Killing it didn't feel right, there was no sense of accomplishment. Only this feeling that I through my actions had severed perhaps the last link to a time before time. This one will stay with me a while I think.
This is literally the best boss in the entire game. The theme behind it, the weight it has on your emotions, the pacing of the fight. It’s such a shame that it’s criminally underrated because I really couldn’t stop looking at it. I had to dispel my summon to properly feel the fight, the ghosts it was summoning, realizing it was supposed to portray the beauty of life, death, what comes before, after.
This fight was a dance. A duet. I couldn't bring myself to fell such ancient and alien beauty. I gave my life for thee. And showed that with my death, so too would it fall. Our bodies becoming the warm glow that chaperones the other.
Passing spirits. Undying lights that respect each other's glimmer.
Downed this boss on first attempt but hung around the area and kept throwing down my summon signal to experience it again and again. There is just something so magical about this track and this boss in general.
I went into this fight at level 80ish and got it my 2nd try but it was a very fun fight that I wish lasted longer.
But dude,
This music for a forest creature spirit boss..... incredible! This piece is absolutely beautiful and haunting.
Not only do I love the whole atmosphere of this fight I played this boss while in a lot of pain. I'd messed up a muscle in my neck and had to sit in a very particular position to limit the pain. The music in this fight and the fight itself oddly helped me to relax and feel a bit better.
I feel you, this boss was soothing for me and I wasn't even in pain to begin with. I wish you a swift recovery, fellow Tarnished
0:30 Ziak : Même pas un grincement
Aaaaahhhhh merci ke reyrouvais plus
This boss fight caught me off guard. I was way over-leveled when I found them, so it wasn't too hard. But what really hit me with them was the take it had from some heritigal mythology.
It felt personal, like "What have they done to you?"
A mercy kill.
the only boss fight that I cried at the end. I actually felt really bad beating it.
Anyone who said this boss was mediocre just doesn't what makes this boss great
Absolutely my favorite fight of the game so far :)
6:32 is the phase change music. Mostly commenting for myself since I like the 2nd phase more than the first, feels less empty.
What was the 2nd phase he was doing the same moves the entire time for me
@@vcrypt8048 For me, it would glow during some attacks and either do more damage with them, or add something on to an additional move, or even a new one. It used a glowing headswipe into the air, a move where it jumped into the air and stomped 3 times on its hind legs toward me, a change on the teleport where it breathed its magic out as it finished teleporting, and of course, the heal.
@@NobleLeader6 I didn't have that, how strange
@@vcrypt8048 there are two of them. Regal Ancestor Spirit is different than Ancestor Spirit.
@@nayyarrashid4661 oh I see
The most haunting boss theme in the game, i half feel the regen mechanic was put in just so we could experience this masterpiece for longer
this fight was gorgeous visually and this music was soooo good, made me sad the majestic beast fell. damn. game of the century.
And to think the 2 of them were probably mates when they were alive, the easier female and the harder male.
I wish I could fight against this majestic beast again for the first time. The scenery, soundtrack and pure majesty of the beast definitely made this battle one of my favorites. It gave me the same melancholy as Blaidd, something I didn't necessarily want to kill, but had to in order to progress. Just phenomenal.
Makes me hope they do some kind of boss rush thing like they did with Sekiro, I doubt they’ll do it but it would be awesome to fight this guy again without making a new character
who else stayed in this boss battle for extra time just to listen to this master piece? sounded amazing on my party speakers
Listening to this song, eyes closed and wind lightly blowing on you is the best feeling. Listening to this just genuinely makes me smile because it's so gorgeous
Man, coming back to this game after being away for so long, this song still hits on such an cosmically EPIC level. I just melt listening to it.
This isnt a boss theme
It's a regret theme
Ancestral Spirit = RIDE WIFE
...regret :(
The moment when I listen to this I feel like a spirit flight in the sky, among dark clouds.
Permit me to stay a moment with you in these fading glades, Ancestor.
any of you guys know how i can find more music like this? i litterally found my soul in this.
try The Last Samurai soundtrack, Red warrior and A Small Measure of Peace in particular are great tracks.
I am going to miss Yuka Kitamura's music so goddamn much. She made 2 of my top 3 tracks, this and Leyndell ost.
This was the most saddest boss i ver fought yet so astheticly pleasing. At one point it dropped to its knees in struggle to get up, i felt like a monster.
How many people came here because the OST isn't on spotify yet lmao
God this ost is so good. Like its so good
Ive been really enoying this game. Everytime I start it up again I find something unique or new. With the few issues I have personally (I get lost quite a bit and/or forget what I'm suppose to be doing for certain quests), this boss here was absolutely beautiful. I noticed how unique not only the looks were but the moveset as well. The music is genuinely my favorite in the game so far.
imagine if from made a game with the tribal aesthetic we see in the undergrounds, with the horned bros and animal spirits
I just want more of this type of ost
Watching my friend fight this boss made me buy elden ring and start my first Souls experience.
Such a beautiful boss and song. I've found that my favorite songs from the souls series are of this "Ethereal" tone...Moonlight Butterfly, Celestial Emissary, Divine Dragon, etc
A french drill rapper used a sample of this soundtrack in one of his song that is "même pas un grincement" by "Ziak"
I honestly felt horrible killing this boss since it was genuinely beautiful and the thing was just minding its own business
You woke it up from its eternal slumber at peace just to send its spirit to Hell forever.
Ive always wondered how Torrent thought about this fight. If he thought we were right to kill it. We know he is both sentient and sapient as he literally chose us. And is very similar to the ancestral spirits even the spirit air jumping and the horns. I would like to know his thoughts on if it was right to defeat this creature, they seem kindred
Miyazaki: "Better put a banger music; he is going to be there for a long time"
This shits finna make me cry bruh foreal..
Didn't expect Beautiful OST
what really made this fight eerie is the sound design of the ancestor spirit attack, it blended perfectly with the music
Yuka Kitamura is the GOAT
A fine hunt it was, the wolves and the red hood all chased after the beast. The azure sword gleamed and the bow was strung, the hooded hunter smiled as he exchanged blows with the regal ancestor of dwellers underground. However, upon slaying the Spirit, emptiness overcame the crimson hood and the pack that indulged in the fight.
I can feel the Shadow of the Colossus in this. I love this song. It reminds me of playing Wander all those years ago.
Sampled song of Ziak - Même pas un grincement
I so badly regret finishing this boss quickly (bloodhound fang-thingy) - first time I’ve ever wished I’d actually died a few times just so I could etch it’s design in my mind. Definitely doing a second play through. FROMSOFTWARE, you’ve made a timeless masterpiece!
This music is very western, native American to me. Very calm yet sad.
@Knight_Artoriaslucky Americans, this is not what native Canadian music sounds like at all.
HAHAHAHAHA look at the yankie thinking hes the only one with spirits on the culture, not even yours i may add
One of only a handful of boss themes in ER that doesn't just feel like a rehash of the same old generic fantasy chanting (this applies to DS3 as well). The instruments all fit together perfectly in this piece.
I don't know the lore yet but when I fought this boss, I was streaming and normally I ramble about random things but this boss gives VERY indigenous vibes. From the design, to the name and to the music. I have only fought one of these (I see comments that tell me there's multiple) and of all the soulslikes I played, this was the first time a boss made me go full focus with every fiber of my being. I felt like it was solemn duty to give this great being a true fight. I cried during and after the fight because I felt genuinely horrible for the life I had taken.
Reminds me Ori's games soundtrack
I approached the beast with its soul tethered to lifeless shell - It forbid its own dismissal until its oath was fulfilled and the conservation of its cradle-land, insured.
Entering it’s anima, the beasts majesty shadowed my subconscious instincts to strike. As it danced in the air thick with brume clinging to stalagmites I sensed a deeper suffering, one kindred to my own..
The beast challenged me, and as we fought I could sense Its great disdain for the shattering and the rot seeping its way towards the darkly-bespangled, ancestral halls it once protected.
I would send it back - back to the tree of life from wince it sprung. Send it back to be born anew in a land I intend to purify.
And so I did.
With truest aim, and a mighty chasmal clamor, I paid homage to my foe with quick cessation and by troth - a promise.
I will back take back the splintered shards, a gift given in whole, from the dregs of a treacherous bloodline.
Slaves we may be, but in every structure across this this great land our blood has supplied the mortar on which its stones rest. Who better than us tarnished could restore its foundation as we are it’s truest denizens.
Beautiful.
This is litteral poetry, you are a legend.
Sounds so sad and beautiful at the same time.
This boss and it's theme gave me druid and shaman vibes from WoW.
The Regal Ancestor Spirit is my favorite boss ever. The atmosphere, music, the design, it is all beautifully crafted.
When I met the second one, I thought it was the same ancestral spirit as before, but this one was different.
It killed me. Over and over again.
However, something kept me going. I felt like it was the first real test of my ability. I found all bosses easy before this one, I was underlevelled.
After every defeat, I understood it a little bit more. This made me empathize with it.
I didn’t want the fight to end. I wanted this to be an eternal spar, I wanted to battle it for the rest of the ages.
When I finally got to half of his health bar, like it understood what I wanted, it just rose up and healed. Over and over again it healed, extending our meeting.
Every try I would inch closer to defeating it. I was distracted by the beauty and life of it, but then... I finally defeated it. After a dozen or so tries.
I felt… sad.
It felt like I killed the last member of an ancient species. I felt empty and undeserving.
But life sprouts from death, as it does from birth.
Such is the way of the living.
Remember first time fighting him:
He gliched through the floor and died at the very beginning
I repeatedly got this boss down to 1 hit range, yet still haven't killed it. I could have. I was on full health each time. But each time I formulated some obtuse, eccentric strategy to finish it. Each ending in my death. Until the last time I attempted it, where once again we were in that familiar position.
But this time I let it kill me. I don't want it to go yet.
My favourite encounter in the game thus far, and potentially in all of the Souls series.
dont care i killed the big deer thing
@@Valskyr completely understandable, but you clearly cared enough to scroll through the countless similar comments and reply to mine. Appreciate it.
like sif befor it, i did NOT want to kill this boss, but not fighting it would be a disservice to its creation. I got summoned in once, and just sat and watched the fight.
Music to have a spiritual awakening to
This is good yoga music. Youll meditate your actual thoughts versus the thoughts you think you want.
Excellent lore btw
I understood everything this creature was trying to tell me during this fight and yet I cant convey it in words
J'ai découvert que l'instru de ziak " même pas un grincement " a été tiré de cette ost a 0:30
So, i would like to start by saying that this game in its whole, is a work of art, every minute, every location and every boss ! I must also say that the music in this game is epic. During this boss battle i had goosbumps the entire battle because of how nice the music fited the battle. Cant wait for the DLC to release!!
this zone and this boss was a magical experience, like psicodelic, but playing a game, what ab gaming masterpiece
The Witcher 3 OST are you ? ❤️😻 that atmosphere..🥲
The guilt this song makes you feel for killing such an ancient beast is really something, and it tops it off with all the spirit animals laying dead after the fight is finished. Makes you really feel like the bad guy.
I remember streaming the fight a couple weeks after release in my discord.
2 friends were watching and when i finished the fight, we all had to catch a break for a minute.
We couldn't believe what incredible sound and gameplay design we just experienced.
GG Fromsoft
This track doesn't even feel like a boss track. You could easily play this as ambience over some sweeping vistas or grandeur areas and it would fit well.
Merci ziak d’avoir pondu une masterclasse sur cette ost
Je cherchais si quelqu'un d'autre avait reconnu comme moi ! C'est fou le lien entre les deux !!
God when that 2nd phase music hits, just brings a tear to the eye. It's just so majestic
from the moment i glimpsed this boss in the Trailer ... I knew ... for sure ..it is my fav FS boss battle/design.... but what I wasnt expecting, was for the music to also to be just as mesmerizing!
Not crying in guilt for beating this boss... 😢😢😢
The Ancestor Spirit is my second favourite boss fight after the Fire Giant, a big part of why is the music. Also, i got robbed out of the Regal Ancestor Spirit fight cause the damn thing fell out of the map :(
I literally beat the final boss and finished the game to this song. I entered the zone so bad with it
Follow the dopamine.
I've beaten this boss yesterday and I'm still shocked and fascinated by his look and music. I really feel like I've beaten a boss that didn't deserve it.
