![Ludwig, The Accursed & Holy Blade - Lyrics & Translation [OFFICIAL]](/img/1.gif)
A little fact here. If you kill him with the viceral attack he offered you towards the end, he dies with his sword and sound like a man. However if you keep dealing fire damage and not take his viceral attack offer, he dies screaming like a beast without his sword. So you either give him an honorable death or you slaughter him a beast.
Honestly after dealing with this horse's shit Im denying him that honor. He gets slaughtered like the beasts he was one killed.
I gave him the honor
I gave him honor and you were right.
@@TheTruem4n Wait a minute, which of us was right?
@@creightonofmirrah2479 the one that "dying while sound like a man", if giving him the honor
Everybody gangsta until the Berserk horse picks up the sword from King's Field
xD
Big Cat Ludwig’s design is inspired from the rape horse
@@bayydh8905 it's honestly pretty fitting
W.S. Harvey hahahahahahaah
THE RAPE HORSE
Fun fact, once the second phase starts, Ludwig stops receiving bonus damage from serggeted weapons.
The game itself is saying, "You no longer fight a beast. Now, you face a man."
This is cathartic as fuck!
So cool, love this game!
"If that thing is still a man, why am I still fighting it?"
We are still fighting it as the Moonlight Sword can speak to its wielder, as why Ludwig says his mentor, and the like. The Moonlight Sword must’ve corrupted him and told him to kill you.
@@williamhankel8209 Naw. The Moonlight Sword def wanted him to die an honorable death. He was already fighting and trying to kill you, why not use the sword from the start?
When he covers the beast side with his sword, to show the human side of his face is so indicative of where this fight is about to go. There is no longer a beast, but the warrior we've heard tales about, Ludwig.
The most amazing thing about Ludwig it's he is the only person who overcome the curse, recovering his humanity, at least partially.
@@Wellerocoolhe had so much love for his sword
@@ComeForth.bro couldn’t resist the wide glowstick
And in the game this reflects too, phase 1 is weak to serrated weapons (they do more damage to beasts) while phase 2 isn't (he "isn't" no longer a beast)
@@GayBowser1 I ALMOST CHOCKED AFTER READING YOUR COMMENT LMAO 😂
Such a small detail, but I love how even his voice changes, from demented screams to the grunts and war cries of a warrior giving it his all.
And horse noises too
Thats not a small detail at all
You can hear it in the music too. In the phase 2 cutscene, the choir sing very atonally and is very unpleasant to the ears. He picks up the Moonlight Greatsword and his mind isn’t clouded like the beast he was. The choir sounds more heroic as you realize you’re gonna get your ass kicked
this is something I didn't notice until now. fucking hell bloodborne is cool.
Even his stance changes, goes from beast to resembling a warrior mounted on a horse
“Why yes, I’m British. How could you tell?”
Bri'ish
Oh ha ha very funny XD
soooooooooo fucking funny ･________･
wait I've seen you. But where?
Steven Murphy shut up mate you still need “gaming tips” you sorry loser
This boss fight is remarkable, the fact that Ludwig basically regained part of his humanity when he got the sword. It's poetic af.
Why do I find you everywhere?
Nice
Just Some Guy without a Mustache since when have you been into bloodborne
"The sword" huh ?
fak.
This scene means so much to me because it's a masterpiece in character design.
He looks so disgusting and terrifying but they mange to convey so much emotion with it, like in the second cutscene, as he falls you can see the hope disappearing from his face as he gives up the will to fight, but when the green light hits his face you can see the great swordsman return, this monster suddenly becomes more human In this moment.
And the way his design is made to look good on all fours and standing up is perfect, it's intimidating but holds a stance and attacks that looked as if they were developed after years of fighting, unlike the beast flailing around with no cohesive attacks this man fights with skill.
Even his voice, in the first phase he was loudly screaming and screeching while in the holy sword state he is grunting like a human.
In my eyes he is no longer fighting to win, he is fighting to show that he is still in there and that he wants to go out as a warrior of the sword, moving on with his master to the end.
Sorry this was so long I just love this fight.
Go outside.
@@rexwest4532 in what way
Ludwigs design is based on the infamous horse scene from Berserk
@@nerostark4320 is he really?!
@@yoloboloyolo888 every soulsgame fan, knows that Hidetaka Miyazaki is major fan of Berserk and lot of designs on his souls games are based on Berserk by Kentaro Miura. He even made a scenery in Elden Ring to pay respect to Mr Miura after he passed away last year.
So Ludwig walks into a bar
Bartender says "why the long face?"
And then gets obliterated by guiding moonlight
The bar gets crowded later on and Ludwig can't find his pint anywhere. After the barman begins clearing glasses from the tables, Ludwig sees his pint close by, "Aahhh... you were by my side, all along. My brew mentor... my guiding Bud Light."
" REEEEEEEEE" - Ludwig probably
@@antonironstag5085 brilliant
@@Mr.Coffee576 family guy
That seamless music change soon after his cutscene with the sword, so fucking good
once the choir hits, you know shit just got real
tipoomaster with they did that with some of the DS3 bosses like the Abyss Watchers or the Twin Princes, those two tracks have parts made for the phase transition cutscene in the first phase, but unlike here it's not fixed to the cutscene. Also the Twin Princes's has terrible loops where it's clear when it actually loops.
Still not the biggest fan of the second phase of the Abyss Watchers track, it loses all its momentum after such an amazing transition part.
@@AceAviations2 Slave Knight Gael with the 3 part transition. Phase 2 and 3 are *chefs kiss*
@@Konpekikaminari *OH VENATOR*

The choir gives me chills every time
I had the most trouble with this guy of all the bloodborne bosses, died countless times, finally beat him with one of the in game NPCs helping me. I then beat Maria in one try and Child of Koss in 3 tries. Must be my gaming style or something because everyone says Ludwig isn't that hard.
I’m pretty sure Ludwig is considered the second hardest in Bloodborne and Orphan is 1st.
@@mattguxxxtt9629 yeah this is correct.
@@mattguxxxtt9629 Indeed, many consider Ludwig one of the hardest bosses in game.
@@mattguxxxtt9629 L A U R E N C E
Oh you can summon npc to help you? In my case, every time I summon Henrietta she goes straight to the mobs in the area and never comes the boss fight area, I'm so happy about wasting insight in this way lol
That unsightly beast line was extreeeeeeemely well delivered and gave me chills
it should be a crime to play this game without the music volume all the way up
*knock knock. "Police here. Excuse me, sir, we've had a complaint that you were just fighting Ludwig the Accursed."
"Yeah, what's the problem?"
"It's been reported that the music volume had been lowered during the fight. Is that true?"
"Um... yeah?"
"Sir, you have the right to remain silent..."
Legit
But what if they need to concentrate without all the music in the background? :/
Some ppl play w/o music and probably listen to the soundtrack later. If I were to be in that crime scenario I would get my lawyer xd.
I had the music blasting at full volume on my tv, until my neighbors complained and threatened to call the local police officers...
...who then proceeded to arrest my neighbors and knock on my door to recommend even louder speakers.
The concept of this boss going from pathetically disgusting to heroically majestic at the halfway point gave me so many chills. When I saw him regain his sanity I was so overwhelmed by goosebumps that I lost just from sheer lack of self-control.
+TheDustyMuffinsss Right? I thought that was one of the weirdest yet awesome boss transitions ever. lol
+TheDustyMuffinsss This is way to accurate
this is really late but his second mouth still moves like a parasite... just wanted to point that out its creepy as hell
I was not expecting manly tears when this fight started. That I'd remember this thing as 'noble'.
From hellish horror to some kind of tragically heroic centaur knight... that I helped die as himself.
Imagine how powerful he'd be if he got out of that fight alive, story-wise. We're talking a creature with the same physical stature and strength as a fucking cleric beast while carrying a Moonlight Great sword. Not to mention he regained at least some of his swordsmanship ability when his sanity returned.
Ludwig is easily my favourite. Imagine being such a strong-willed badass that you're able to overcome a virus that turned you into a deformed centaur monster and regain your humanity to have one final fight and die honourably?
Well, the sword helped
it's not a virus, it's a curse from the eldritch gods that was transferred through the healing blood injections everyone keep taking in Yharnam, and if you notice Ludwig's Guidance Rune, it increases the user's Rally Potential, and that Ludwig's penchant for frontline combat meaning showering in beast blood all the time on top of the Guidance Rune, his extreme transformation is not unbelievable
When I fought Ludwig for the first time the into gave me straight goosebumps and his story almost made me cry. When he finally comes to his senses and regains some sense of humanity it's truly a triumph. We've all been there, utterly consumed by something. At least he was able to come out of it and die with dignity. What a master stroke.
Cry
@@madmonty4761what?
1:20 That one right there. That's the most chilling sound I've heard any of the bosses in this game make. It's such a painful sounding wail.
It's like you hear a child schream or sth
It’s like a horse crossed with a baby screaming
Anthony Gaming and distorted af
EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. chills. Imagine walking through some old massive cathedral church or mass graveyard and hearing that scream.
Ok edgy
Ludwig: (falls to the ground)
Miyazaki: Here you go buddy (tosses Moonlight Greatsword +5)
Ludwig: You were always by my side. My guiding moonlight.
Miyazaki: Don't mention it!
Me: That's...... That't not fair.......
more like:
Miyazaki: It's dangerous to go alone, take this
Shiro, Lord Of The Moonlight LOL
John Vincent Olmos miyazaki: stop complaining and GET GUD
More like a moonlit great sword +10 with best gems.
Penny Basa XD I’m trying to kill him I haven’t beaten the game and I’m at rom...fun times Ludwig will die at some point...right...
My favorite part of this fight, is how Ludwigs beast form looks like his humanity is still there, transformed, but the human side is hanging on as much as it can.
Then the moonlit sword gives that humanity a fighting chance.
A man turned beast, standing upright and becoming a beast of a man.
It's perfect!
The best part about the Holy Blade is that it feels almost like a reward for defeating his first phase; you’ve beaten him in his beast form, and now you’re rewarded with an epic, full-on absolute blast of a battle between two god tier hunters.
......That had to have been the creepiest introduction for a boss in the soul series I've ever seen. o.O
orphan of kos ...
True. But at least the Orphan didn't have a creepy narration. lol
The One Reborn... Vicar Amelia...
Lorians is kinda creepy tbh
Vicar Amelia is pretty disturbing. The transformation looks painful, something straight out of An American Werewolf in London.
“Hmmm, you were at my side...all along.”
It was at this moment, The Hunter knew....he fucked up.
My hunter, Valtr, and Madras twin: Really? This shit?
@@Cptsuccess yes yes you’re big and brave and bad because you didn’t shit yourself when the horse guy became the horse man, you’re very cool and we will all bow down and suckle the heals of your boots
My Hunter:
_Finally... A worthy opponent!_
3:10 The way he grunts with his swords sounds otherwordly. Felt like wrath of God. Goosebumps.
2:20 scene still gives me chills
I think it's kinda funny that this is the game that the moonlight sword makes the most sense, thematically.
Why? Sorry it’s been a while since I played a Soulsborne games.
MrFox It fits more in bloodborne because of the moon.
It's interesting how the Moonlight in previous games was seen as a cleansing light that wards off dark and is the antithesis of evil. Yet, in Bloodborne the moon is synonymous with evil and the great ones, which sort of reverses it's role. Instead of being a regular holy sword, it's a sword described as being holy, but seems connected to a major source of evil in the game.
@Straight Busta Ocieros was experimenting with Seath's shit in the grand archives, his soul holding the Moonlight sword makes sense.
Straight Busta Interesting to another that from Midir’s soul, you could get the Old moonlight spell. Maybe Seath’s influence on dragons is greater than we thought.
Why do I get the feeling that the reason Ludwig looks like a horse is because he was riding one when he transformed?
Because Berserk. In fact, a lot of the souls series can be explained with Berserk.
+Holo The Hogan Johnson Where's the horse dick at tho
Lol, that's true. You got me there.
+Holo The Hogan Johnson Actually, Bloodborne is based on good ol Lovecraft.
Alex Davis I know. That's why the game felt more old school horror than most horror games nowadays.
Ludwig, the holy blade, fights a man fighting Ludwig, the holy blade, with Ludwig's holy blade with Ludwig's actual holy blade.
This sentence is surprisingly grammatically correct
Try saying this one 10 times fast 🤣
THIS is a horror design lesson, bravo to the artists
I like how at the beginning he just whips out the sword like
"Welp, here we go"
Every boss in this game is a walking abortion. He's used it to by now.
Not like the hunter can leave
new favorite boss theme
always now?
Ludwig an ugly beast
*Gives Moonlight Greatsword*
Ludwig: I'm still worthy !
The lyrics of the ost are being sung from the perspective of the moonlight greatsword. Based on its choice of words, It revealed itself to him again in his final moments not to make it harder for you but out of respect for Ludwig. It wants you to put him down as a warrior and not as a beast. This is also where it takes its opprtunity to demonstrate its power to you and make you go "I want that"
The swords a pick-me lmao
For someone who has never played Bloodborne, (tho i have played Darksouls 1 and 3) i thought i was just going to see a grotesque monster get killed, but when that second phase hit and that music dropped I was in awe. From Software always amazes me with their boss designs
Fighting Ludwig with his own holy sword oh the irony
Ludwig’s holy blade is a replica of Ludwig’s sword
@John Mari Anog eh I sticking with my blood tinge build
@@confusedkys6090 lol, Chikage go brrr
@Sakunta Dharma I disagree. The Cleric beast was most likely a church hunter that served under Ludwig given the item he dropped, therefore one must beat the cleric beast with pretty much any weapon of the healing church such as the Holy Blade or Kirkhammer to do this challenge and succeed.
The way his eye slowly widens upon witnessing the Holy Blade... Truly phenomenal
Have a good day, dude dude
The way he stands with pride again after getting the sword. Goosebumps.
Fact about ludwig in the intro he has his moonlight sword on his back and it professionally falls off in the lung he does
Ludwig the accursed is the best prime example of a disgusting yet awesome and powerful boss
My favorite boss in any game. So many varied attacks, incredible character design, amazing sound design, and a transformation on top of all that.
Same
"Masterpiece" doesn't do this game justice. Definitely among my top 5 games ever, and man I've played hundreds of games since '84.
Same, never thought a game that recent would be in my top 5 of all time. Truly a masterpiece, game of the generation.
@stonerdemon I love Bloodborne aswell! Very curious to hear what other games you have in your top 5?
@@thisaintnoparty well said! Can I ask what other games are there in your top 5?
@@uuupeipe 1. Vagrant Story
2. Bloodborne
3. Dragon Quest VIII
4. Silent Hill 2
5. Contra III
Definitely one of my all time favorite Bosses ever. The phase transition cutscene is truly inspiring to me because Ludwig is in his lowliest state and then he picks himself up and regains part of his humanity to fight his final duel with a fellow hunter not as a beast, but as a man. It inspires me whenever I feel down and out to try and pick myself up and keep going to better myself.
"He who fights with monsters should look to it that he himself does not become a monster. When you gaze long into the abyss the abyss also gazes into you"
It's not every day that a boss transforms into a Super Saiyan.

Jesus christ the music is absolutely amazing in this fight.
To me, the best boss fight in video game history. I was underleveled in NG+ and it was like hitting a brick wall. But I had to defeat him. No other encounter in my years of playing video games has given me the sense of pure, visceral life and death combat like this one. The music and amazing visual design doesn't hurt. I will forever remember my battle with Ludwig.
Is it just me, or is the second phase actually easier? He acts a lot less aggressively, then, at least for me. Kinda the opposite of the Orphan of Kos or Gascoigne.
Furious George I felt the same way. I also felt that Martyr Logarius was easier in his second phase, because at least he didn't summon the fucking skulls -_-
At least Ludwig, Martyr and Kos were great bossfights, unlike Micolash Cage and his Call Beyond bullshit
Man, FUCK MICOLASH, seriously, fuck him. His fight, the Witches of Hemwick, and Rom have to be my most hated boss fights in the game. Most others are awesome, but those three are just the holy trinity of boredom.
Furious George maybe since he regained his humanity he fought the way he truly wanted to be
it is more of a show than a challenge. It's like rewarding you for pulling off phase 1 and survive into phase 2. Instead become more feral, he regains his humanity and fights you with stances of human, not a beast.
Same goes for Laurence, to be honest. His legless phase 3 is more of a show of his misery to make us feel pity for him. It is easier than his phase 1
It is easier, however the 2nd phase attacks deal WAAAAAYYYYY more damage. Even Ludwigs basic attacks are intense.
Honestly most of the bosses in this game belong in a horror game.
They are in a horror game
I'd most definitely classify Bloodborne as being in the horror rpg genre, which sadly never took off and hadnt seen an addition to said genre really since the ps2 age with, I think, Shadow Hearts.
I would absolutely classify Bloodborne under a horror genre. aside from the aspects of cosmic horror inspired by Lovecraft (which are arguably the most unsettling), some of the body horror in this game is *beyond* grotesque. many of these designs are absolutely disgusting, I mean for the love of god, Ludwig has a second head which is a mouth comprised of a few teeth, and endless rows of eyeballs descending into the throat.
that’s horrific.
Bloodborne IS a horror game
(And only god knows why it is rated 16+)
Lmaoo if it were a horror survival game (Dead by daylight) we'd fucking die
So far nothing in Elden Ring has still managed to top this in either presentation or OST. Love Ludwig so damn much
Really? Maliketh and malenia quite nice
I am back to Bloodborne myself it's just the atmosphere of this game and cosmic horror, the architecture of Yharnam is too good. I also enjoyed Demon Souls but I hated certain mechanics like human and ghost form, plus having balancing this stupid World Tendency.
I like bloodborne a lot better then elden ring but I think the godskin apostles OST sounds pretty similar to Ludwig but in a good way. Not that it’s the same melody but the feeling is kind of the same with the rhythm and beat drop.
@@karatekennny6301Maliketh wants to be Ludwig so bad
I mean it’s literally a DLC boss, how bout you compare the main game bosses.
the fact that in his 2nd phase u dont make "bonus damage to beasts" anymore since the game sees him no longer as such ... hands down my fav boss of the soulsborne series
dat demonic screech at 4:23

For some reason he has a phase 1 death animation if you kill him with fire.

He deserved it because he was involves in the massacre of fishing hamlet
@@Dead_on_Arrival. I don't think there is any proof of that, the blood healing church didn't even exist back then
That music transition tho, how this game didn’t win best OST ill never know.
"My true mentor.... my guiding moonlight." It's almost as if the one thing that made him a beast (the lust for blood and killing with his sword) actually made him feel human again one last time. Shit is crazy when you actually think about it
Quite jealous not having this on PC...
It's an incredible game, worth getting a ps4 just for it.
not really. thats like 400 to play one game
+Julius Tapert system sellers are definitely a thing. and nobody is saying that the system seller is the only thing you'll play but it's the primary reason.

The more I fight him the better he becomes.
Ah. Ludwig. The most painfully awesome experience of my life. And the cutscenes add. And I'm impressed (but mainly me being l a scrublord) at how you accomplished victory in one try.
He probably didn't. Either he had a sepertate character to try out the boss or he managed to manually saved his save. I mean, he knew exactly what to do against most of the attacks without having seen them before. No one can be this good.
I accidentally did it when I first got old hunters

The point was that this wasn't his first attempt at the boss. Don't know how your comment changes that.
just fought this boss for the first time, and holy shit i was so amazed by the soundtrack that i could barely focus in the actual fight

Is this horse gonna be available in Red Dead Redemption 2 ?
Oh God...
That would be on full rampage against players in lobby
Lets make petition to have this horse as dlc with sword
Oh very funny, Starbucks gaming channel.
Creepy
Only if RDR2 gets a Undead DLC.
Ive been stuck on this boss since the DLC came out. I took a small break and beat both Dark Souls 1 and 3 before beating this boss. The hardest boss battle i've ever come across and you make it look easy... Also i refuse to summon people, it goes against my manly pride xD
It's not that he makes it look easy, he had a lot of HP and good resistance. You can see he made many mistakes. That being said, this boss and the Orphan were probably the toughest in Bloodborne.
Yeah, the Orphan is the hardest but in my all of the soulsborne games ive played Darkeater Midir was the hardest ive ever thought.
I know it's an old post, but damn...Manus and Kalameet (DS1) are a lot harder than all Bloodborne bosses together. And don't even let me mention Raime the Fume Knight (DS2).
Manus and kalameet are a joke compared to Ludwig they're way easier
Meh... Not for me. Bloodborne in general is easier compared to Dark Souls; stamina depletes too slowly, you move too quickly, blood vials can be used instantly ecc. Overall, is an user-friendly game. Ludwig is hard, for sure, but still a Bloodborne boss.
I've literally never once played Bloodborne (no playstation) and yet all the boss fights give me chills. This one specifically
this game is an absolute masterpiece
0:45 when u step on a lego
Or 1:20
Like Boss shh. Don't ruin this with cringey when comments.
I swear I'd love to forget everything about this game so I can replay it like the first time. God this fight... The music, the design of Ludwig, the way he recovers his humanity in the second phase... Sometimes I let myself die in the fight so I can enjoy it again because its so epic xDD
Love Ludwigs boss design, a cross between a disgusting horse, a beast, and a british man
British man 😨
you said a beast twice bro, fix it.
The sound design of this boss is absolutely remarkable.
Remember when the gaping dragon was the most disgusting boss?
Excuse me the WHAT
@Petr Říha wasn't actually responding to you with their comment.
SMOUGH
I hope if they make another bloodborne they should have friendly NPCs that eventually turn into beasts, would really give more of a horror feel to it
That's already a thing in Bloodborne btw
Poor gilbert
@@mightbeapersonmaybe8379 Alas poor Gilbert, I knew thee well...... Well, not really.
@@juwe7143 Gilbert and Gascoigne. You can summon Gascoigne in Central Yarnham before the bossfight. Also, you could include the Bloody beggar depending on how you treated him.
Opening cinematic for Ludwig is just how I look like waking up for school.
One of the best fights in the game, thematically speaking. Being one of the most hideous examples of someone mutated by the Old Blood, Ludwig looks like he lives in constant agony. It is only through the cleansing power of the Hunter's fury that Ludwig is awakened, and given a final chance to die as the man he was rather than the monster he became. In this way, you save Ludwig and release him from his pain.
Who else just remembered this existed? Nostalgia hits hard man.
Maybe the best boss ever created. Sure Gael, Nameless, and damn Isshin are fantastic, but this is a work of art.
Gael and Isshin are also a work of art
Isshin is definitely a gloc- I mean work of art.
This must be one of the most epic battle in the entire game and the music is absolutely fit to it ! 🔥🔥🔥
his screams in the first half of the battle are so cool and bone chilling, i honestly love them
3:30 I love that part of the music
You mean: 3:46
One of few boss fights that’s so amazing a part of you doesn’t want to defeat him
So true.
Like Gael for me, it's a tough but fair boss fight that hypes you up and makes you wish it never ends.
Him covering up the more transformed side of his face with his sword and only showing his more human side is such good use of visuals to represent him regaining some of his humanity and returning somewhat from beasthood. Fromsoft are true artists when it comes to video games.
Ludwig is one of my favorite soulsborne bosses it's his character design that I like
Horses?
DAT INTRO. DAT CUTSCENE IN THE MIDDLE.
DAT SOUNDTRACK. ALL HAIL BLOODBORNE, MIYAZAKI, FROM SOFTWARE AND THE NIGHTMARE.
THIS IS THE MOST EPIC AND TWISTED BOSS BATTLE EVER WITNESSED AND YET THE WITCHER 3 WON GAME OF THE YEAR?
Bloodborne > The Witcher 3
so sick and twisted. I love it.
ggaccentc Agreed.
+Malcefium Mike Both where a tie for me but Witcher 3 was my personal 2015 GOTY.
***** Oh god.. lol, scrubs.. scrubs all over the shop.
+Malcefium Mike Because a person thinks that Witcher 3 is better than bloodborne that makes them a scrub ? That logic, >_>
the music plus his grunts when he swings his blade is so GOOD
*”WELL AT LEAST WE CAN LEARN BASIC MAFFAMA’ICS WIVVOUT WORRYING ABOUT GE’ING SHOT, INNIT MAYTE”*
The fight is best when the music aligns perfectly with each attack and the player and ludwig's fighting performance.
I'm glad the horse from Berserk got some extra work.
Ludwig is the only person in Bloodborne who actively reclaims his humanity after falling to the beast.
I just realized that the moonlight sword is on his back the whole time until the second phase.
Hands down best boss fight. Story progression mid fight, and so significant at that, and then that music kicks in...
You know, Ludwig has 2 sides on his face. His right side is messed up, his right eye is blank, completely beast-like. His left side, however, can only be seen with the Holy Moonlight Sword's light (2:20). That side seems more human, as you can see a human face there.
At 3:00, Ludwig hides the right side of his face, his beast side. Now, you're not duelling with the beast that Ludwig became, but the human legend he used to be.
Also, his name changes from Ludwig the Accursed, from the first phase, to Ludwig the Holy Blade, on the second phase
*"Aah, you were at my side, all along... My true mentor.. My Guiding Moonlight......"*
Goosebumps everytime
From a beast who attacks without pattern, he then starts fighting you like a sword master.
From walking on all limbs, he got up, that ragged clothing on his back now serve as a cloak, giving a resemblance to a cavalry knight.
He's also no longer weak to fire, meaning he's no longer a beast, you are fighting with a man.
Lastly, Ludwig Van Beethoven composed the Moonlight Sonata, and look what we have here.
I have never seen a boss fight more poetic.
Whoever was in charge of sound design for this this fight deserves a raise this shit is insane
Everybody gangsta until your ps4 blows up during the aoe attack
Ludwig...I platinumed the game and he was the one boss that I couldn’t beat, I seriously *couldn’t beat* on my own.
I feel you, but in my case laurence was pain in the ass..... from 1st phase to 2nd that thing was a literal beast I tell u.
It's scary that it's likely that the people that these beasts once were are still somewhat conscious. "ah you were at my side all along" shows he must have been aware of his situation. terrifying
4:23 *That scream is so deadly...*
