I’d be so down for it but I’m not sure they’ll do it for ER since they put a lot of care into the levels and open world and most people already skip a good chunk of the content on replays
Because it will go directly against the philosophy of the game - it being an open world. No matter what, the main focus of this game is exploration and if they include a boss rush mode, they will be contradicting it.
The way they queued Messmer's theme to start as he forms his flame in his hand will always hype me up. I always have this big grin on my face whenever I see him on subsequent playthroughs because of how well done the soundtrack queue is. His theme is one of my favorites Fromsoft has ever made.
Same for me. The music in phase 2 is so painful and tragic, the voices sound like his last cries for help in his abandonment among the unsettling theme of the abyss serpent
Just found this video, and subsequently this comment; and I cannot agree more. For a while, I considered Midra's OST my favorite in Elden Ring, but the more I replayed the song, the less impact it had and all the while the more Messmer's grew. Everytime I listen to Messmer's OST, it tells so much about the character and keeps building the further you get into the fight. I think it's easily a Top 3 contender for their best piece of music. But the end where it uses all the previous elements used before make it my favorite.
Agreed! Nothing comes close in the satisfaction you feel from dodging his thrusts, swings and later bites nor does anything match the terrific spectacle that this fight is. The music while not quite as good as Midra or Radahn is still amazing!
OMG yes, my 2nd favorite boss right behind Bayle! Seriously Messmer's fight is genuinely one of the best Fromsoft have ever done imo and seriously makes me wish we had a boss rush mode for this game ❤
They are my favorites as well, just switched! Yeah boss rush would be great, speeding through NG or NG+ is kinda fun but sometimes you just wanna get right in there and refight them
Hes hands down the most tragic out of all of Marikas children,abandoned,forgotten by decree and spending eternity cursed with a writhing abyssal serpent eating at his very being.Doesnt excuse the atrocities he commited or the brutality but neither of these were done by his will.Hes was a mommas boy through and through.
Outsanding fight and use of the camera, but i have one suggestion: Letting one or two of the more flashy or cinematic attacks happen (like the grab), but overall, amazing work!
OMG looks so satisfying with hand-to-hand, been very addicted to Backhand Blades but a change is coming, I'll do it in my next run (I'm well beyond NG+7😅), as always you destroy it in these gameplays! Messmer is just flawless, so good!
Man martial arts is so much fun, it was the first fresh build I did in the DLC and together with backhands and milady it’s easily my favorite weapon in Elden Ring! I’m sure you’re gonna have a blast. As always thanks, and yes messmer absolutely slaps
Nice boss fight bro....i was watching your videos recently .....and i need to admit no hud and with the original ost....your constant quality clips are making masterpiece progress...today your subscribers are 1.24k.... One day it will be in millions for sure .. Hence you earned your self a Subscriber All the best my dear Veloketh❤❤❤❤❤
Eyy thanks so much and welcome! Really glad you’ve been enjoying my stuff, makes it really worth it for me. If we ever hit the million subs, I’ll get back to this comment :) All the best to you too, have a great day!!!
Margit/Morgott, Mohg, Godrick & especially Radagon look perfect with their delays, I would say Hourah Loux's delays still to this day fool me a bit sometimes, his delays look comical. Play Lies of P & you'll quickly understand how vastly superior Elden Ring is with its delay animations, you'll be shocked, and that's putting it lightly.
@@MohamednacerKhelifi Either you're biased or are reluctant in seeing how bad, obtrusive & prevalent the delays look in LoP, they're literally almost everywhere, if you dislike Margit & other bosses in Elden Ring for their delays, then you should feel worse for LoP.
@@G_UZI I liked 2:28, 2:40, 6:47 and the sequence from 9:16 on, I feel like there’s a couple of moments where his attacks (and soundeffects) flow with the melody and music shifts, but maybe it’s just me lol
Some of them are, but considering this game is the latest and has better use or the engine as well as developpers having more experience it's not that surprising
Im not opposed to it, haven’t played with a shield for a long time. Would you wanna see a build based around blocking/guard countering or parries? And any specific bosses?
@@Veloketh Blocking and Guard Countering is really cool. I'd like to see a boss like Morgott or Rellana. Messmer and the Dancing Lion are great too, or Romina.
@@josephbulkin9222 rellana would fit very well aesthetically and I haven’t done morgott in a while so I’ll see once I get to them again! Messmer could be cool too
Very nice boss, but he easy. He could have more resistances and damage, and also more complex combos in the second phase. For example, alternating snake and spear attacks, or two grab options with similar animations that differ only in speed.
I think a combo where he switches in and out of snake form fluently would’ve been awesome. Also how is there no snake grab lmao? I guess rykard did it already but still
The real understandable why you would think he’s your favourite bats? I really liked about Miss that really stuck out not in a bad way or anything like that was that his moves you have to be very well timed and he was actually one of the bosses that didn’t use like magic most of the time, or I don’t know spinning that on the final one jumps the user in the air those kind of bosses annoy me so mess I was like oh he’s so difficult but then I realised he’s not actually that difficult. He’s actually really fun and he’s even more fun when you don’t use any flasks because you feel so great about yourself and amazed that you manage to beat the boss without any flasks and I’ll even do one better. I did it without any talents and no status effects. I don’t think I even didn’t even get a poise break on him a single time to give me an extra advantage and I chose a heavy weapon and you can imagine how that went before I actually got the actual run.
his difficulty was perfect on my first run, I did him as the third or fourth main boss I think. most bosses get pretty easy once you master them, would be cool to get some kind of inner variants like with sekiro
I took a look at your dancing lion video. Here are some genuine comments from a random RUclips viewer for why I would prefer to watch this channel over yours. First your audio quality is poor, this is super important for these hud free atmospheric fight videos. Your frame rate might be worse too, hard to tell. Additionally, you just don’t fight the bosses in the same way. On this channel, every attack and dodge is purposeful. The camera is angled to try to always highlight the bosses move set. You had more whiffed attacks and in general it was more like a typical fight but you turned off the hud and called it a day (not saying it was easy to do from a gameplay perspective). Keep trying and refining your craft. You can do it.
My frame rate is 70 and I don't exactly get how my audio quality is poor it's the same like any other and the part about the boss I try to make is as cinematic as possible blending in with their attacks
@@WRSH101 I don’t know how many moves he has compared to other bosses but to me his moveset feels pretty vast with some nice combo branches and switch ups based on your position. which bosses do you think are better designed in terms of moveset?
I don't understand why elden ring doesn't have a boss rush mood
Maybe its still coming, who knows.
when did fromsoft added boss rush mod to sekiro @@josephbulkin9222

Thank you for letting us see the bossfight without the HUD and taking time for the boss to show all of its moves, cutscenes etc...
Glad you enjoyed it!
Best boss ive ever fought in gaming.
Agreed! Nothing comes close in the satisfaction you feel from dodging his thrusts, swings and later bites nor does anything match the terrific spectacle that this fight is. The music while not quite as good as Midra or Radahn is still amazing!
I'm so glad Messmer lived up to the hype. He deserves his spot as the face of the dlc. I just wish he had way more hp and a 3rd phase.
I just found out that Messmer's 2d faze sweep attack is almost the same as Morgott's
I'm not Lying, i love this fkin boss
Same. Messmer is fan-fucking-tastic!
Spectacular performance, you know how to fight Mesmer
thanks, I appreciate it! Been a blast learning him, he’s my fave
ARES!, GIVE A BOSS RUSH MOD FOR ELDEN RING, AND MY LIFE IS YOURS!!!

Messmer is def the best elden ring boss, also, wheres the ost sync i couldnt find it?
What about bayle
@MohamednacerKhelifi bayle is def the coolest but messmer is the most fun imo
Bayle overhyped imo

Also yeah messmer rules
Is it a hot take to say that elden ring bosses are better than dark souls 3 bosses
lukewarm take
@@Velokethwhat does Lukewarm mean?
@@MohamednacerKhelifiBasically, it's not that hot of a take. Lots of people already prefer ER bosses nowadays.
Really I thought everyone hate delayed attacks and the long combos what did change now@@enman009
Some of them are, but considering this game is the latest and has better use or the engine as well as developpers having more experience it's not that surprising
Very nice. Could you try to make a video with a basic sword/shield knight build?
Im not opposed to it, haven’t played with a shield for a long time. Would you wanna see a build based around blocking/guard countering or parries? And any specific bosses?

I wonder if messmer ever realized his mother sanctioned many men
yes, marika was a hoe but also like. she did it strategically to get power so typical female W
I know this is a hot take, but i think this is a video game
you might be onto something here…
Good skills man, but it will be cool if you let some attacks happens too. His grab and impale animation is the most coolest looking in the game.
true his grab is sick af, I think he actually one shot me with it on this Ng+ run but I could definitely adjust my build to that next time
2:42 wtf happend here ? did he just magically teleport into the player character in one frame ?
yes after the first couple of hits he teleports to you, that’s why you gotta dodge again
@@Veloketh That's a really weird attack
@@roozbeh6999 yeah weird that he can just teleport lmao, it’s still one of my favorite moves ever
@@Veloketh it might be a bug
btw how many scadutree blessings was this? just curious
honestly not sure, it’s been a while and I have multiple characters with different levels. my weapon wasn’t upgraded fully tho
Very nice boss, but he easy. He could have more resistances and damage, and also more complex combos in the second phase. For example, alternating snake and spear attacks, or two grab options with similar animations that differ only in speed.

What is your armor combo?
Dryleaf robes, winged serpent helmet, rellana greaves and fire knight gauntlets
Messmer is better than Gael
not even a hot take
He reached “that’s a good favorite” Status
As a Gael fan, I agree
Agreed
Is it allowed to say 1a and 1b? Both fights are at the pinnacle of their respective games in my opinion.
Messmer should be faster and more HP like Rellana . He is so cool but too easy now. So sad
