Elden Ring is an action role-playing game played in a third-person perspective with gameplay focusing on combat and exploration; it features elements similar to those found in other games developed by FromSoftware, such as the Souls series, Bloodborne, and Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice. Director Hidetaka Miyazaki explained that players start with a linear opening but eventually progress to freely explore the Lands Between, including its six main areas, as well as castles, fortresses, and catacombs scattered throughout the open world map

Malenia fighting Jack: Stands there like a punching bag for the entire fight.
Malenia fighting me: Destroys my character, deletes my save file, climbs through my television screen to kill me irl, sets my house on fire
Dont forget she give you scarlet rot irl as well
I think what happened was she can be easily staggered
the river of blood staggered her constantly with such a wide range and such quick attack speed so she simply cannot move and attack at all
double bam help as well with 2 rivers of blood keeping her in place
she basically couldn’t attack and couldn’t heal
so if Seán was to use a shorter range weapon or slower or less staggering then he would have a much muuuuuch harder time
he stunlocked her with the rivers of blood
it's because jack is literally cheesing this entire game. He has a 100% walkthrough on his other screen. This is a perfect example of how to cheese any boss in the game. It kinda makes me sick. Idk how he got any enjoyment from beating the game like this
@@dochallah1721 I mean, he has beaten the game like 4-5 times before so it doesn't really matter lmfao
The reason why Dinklebamp exists in Elden Ring and Bloodborne: His godly status allows him to transcend reality.
He goes to Bloodborne to take breaks from Ranni.
Are you saying that he is quite literally rather seeing Eldrich horrors instead of his wife? Sounds like quite the marriage to me... oh my...
@@demonmurasame733 I mean, sometimes you just gotta beat the crap outta an Eldritch horror so you can blow off steam.
Changing a natural order is tough stuff.
a change can make anyone appreciate what they have more
Ranni was bae
@@blipblop1112 Maybe so, but sometimes you need to beat the shit out of something inside of sit in a celestial palace for a thousand years.
Jacks luck with elden beast is just nuts, every single time I go in with my rivers of blood with my mimic, elden beast is like “how about some elden stars and ringy ring bullshit”
Fighting fire with fire
use the bubbletear it conforts the chasing stars in to hp
both those attacks are always at the same point of the fight so just be ready for them lol
You wanna use Rivers of Blood? Don't be surprised when the beast bites back.
Mine: so you want all my flavor, fine, then suffer
Malenia and miqeulla's lore is so sad, it actually makes me teary eyed... To think she didn't know a single thing about what happened to her brother while she slept. But with what jack said about telling her about what mogh did, she probably would've felt so guilty
I do agree the lore is upsetting
However, I have to correct something
It’s Malenia’s fault that Miquella was stolen from the Haligtree in the first place
Jack seemed to think that Mohg somehow defeated Malenia…but he actually just snuck in while Malenia was off in Caelid to fight Radahn
Malenia left her brother unprotected which resulted in his kidnapping, then, after unleashing Scarlet Rot on Radahn and Caelid, she was brought back to the Haligtree, which ended up infecting it with Scarlet Rot
Malenia unintentionally caused her brother’s kidnapping and killed their dream of a sanctuary for those spurned by the Golden Order
That’s the reason behind her sleep, she became so depressed, it put her in a catatonic state
Quite tragic, yet whether intentional or not, still her own fault
@@logeyperogi1805I find it wrong to say it was her fault. She put trust to her people and Miquella to be able to take care of their land and Miquella himself while she went to fight Radahn and probably many other demigods during that war.
It was not like Miquella is incredibly weak, he is incredibly smart and wise. It is very likely that Miquella was the one that pushed Malenia to go in the first place, for he is pretty much the voice and the brain of their land. He must have had his own plan. Thus, as loyal and trusting as she is, went to fight she goes.
The kidnapping must have been incredibly sudden and so unexpected, it didn't cross Miquella's mind that Moghwyn would do something like that. He must've expected an attack, but never a kidnapping. For this is not something true warriors would do, the war was for pieces of the rings after all.
So truly, it's just sad and unfortunate. Incredibly twisted from Moghwyn's end. It's nobody's fault but the kidnapper's alone.
Honestly it would of been awesome if she just woke up to see Mohg grabbing Miquella- bye bye Mohg 👋
Especially since she was literally trying to protect him
And while she was "dead" he got stolen because Mogh can use him to gain power
I wish the game gave us an option to tell Melania what happened or if we spare her and are able to summon her for the mohg boss fight to get Miquilla back that would be awesome.
Malenia - "I am malenia. Blade of miquella. And i've never known defeat."
Jack - "I am dinkle bamp. Son of double bamp. And i have never known the touch of a woman."
Best comeback ever.
I also love how he said it with the inflection of the "de" in defeat so it sounded like "detouch of a woman"
Great improv
I ... would not call that a comeback ... ?
"Relatable"
Agreed
@@Flotube444 It is if you consider it a declaration that Melania won't even be able to touch him.
Hey Jack, just wanted to say the way you went through this Elden Ring playthrough was really great and entertaining. The way you explained the important lore pieces, skipped the boring parts, and kept your usual humor was a good mix.
@Kavetion And then he woke up
Facts
@Rumblingstation🅥⸜⁄ you're literally a fan atp, you've got half a thousand comments on his channel and it's all bullshit, get off the web kid 😂
Except for the sewers it's not a boring area tho.
@Kavetion with one 30 second video...yea okay🤣🤣🤣🤣
Im fairly certain the second phase is her third bloom, the first is in Caelid during her fight with Radahn, the second could be seen right next to the site of grace outside her boss room on the left
This one bloom is Millicent. You've missed her quest apparently.
@@guregan634 That Bloom is completely unrelated to the what he was talking about.
Malenia did bloom 3 times, the one in Caelid, the one next to Malenia's boss room, the one during Malenia's bossfight which was her third and made her become the Goddess of Rot.
Millicent's was next to the Putrid Tree Spirit unrelated to the rest.
She is called the Goddess of Rot, the description says if she bloomed for a third time she would become a Goddess. You are correct.
if you unlock the scarlet Aonia incantation, it confirms that shes only bloomed twice
@@guregan634 Millicent’s bloom was in the middle of the tree, near the roots, but not in that room next to Malenia’s room
It would seem that YOU missed the end of Millicent’s quest
I'm so glad Jack brought up the "drama" around the translation of these types of games, because, as someone who is an actual translator, it gets really tiring hearing people oversimplifying it to: They did a bad job! They are bad translators!
Like, no, it's far more complex than it seems. And it gets even worse if there's actual dialogue with moving lips because then you have a time/frames restriction plus the need to lipsync. You can't just do whatever you want and call it a day. Also, I don't know how people think a translation gets done, but what the translator usually receives is a word document or a file with ALL the stuff dumped into a table and the minimum context.
Thank you for having a brain!
I don't see why lip-syncing makes comprehending the meaning of a word more difficult, nor how a dialogue would make it more difficult when they, according to you, have a word document or file to reference. if your translation makes the meaning of a statement entirely different than its intended meaning, *you did a bad job*. the job isn't not bad just because it's difficult, just the same way a plate of food sucks whether it was easy to make or not. Is it understandable, yes. does that mean it was a good or mediocre job? No.
@@mcarrowtime7095 lip-syncing has nothing to do with the meaning of a word (I never said it does). What lip-syncing does is restrict which translation of said word you can use in another language because the movement of the lips has to be similar at the beginning and the end of the word, plus it's preferred to find an equivalent to strong consonants in the middle so it looks more natural. And you have to take into account the length difference between languages: what you can say in four words in a language may take you seven in another.
You have a document, yes, but you may only know that it is a shooter, not that it is set in the 1940s or that the person talking is a man or a woman, or a bionic squirrel for that matter. Try to translate sentences from a genderless language to one that has 3 like German WITHOUT that context.
The most common complaint I've seen about videogames' translations is that "X is not what the original says". Yes, some translations can be poorly done, I completely agree, but not all of them are. A lot of companies just prefer to keep as much information secret as possible instead of actually providing the translator with the means to do a more than decent job (plus in a ridicule time frame and paying the least amount possible.)
@@blancaalmagro9597 so, your argument for it not being a bad translation isn't that it's a good translation, it's that the studio doing the translating is making things difficult? I accept that its difficult, that was never the point, the point was that the translation sends the wrong message and changes the meaning of the ending of the game. the issue here isn't using the wrong ending to indicate gender or using a word with the exact same meaning just indicating a different gender, its indicating whether Ranni is bringing on the apocalypse or if she's freeing the people from the meddling of outer gods.
@@mcarrowtime7095 I think the misunderstanding here is that I was never referring to this specific situation, I was talking about Jack bringing up the subject of the work translators do.
I don't know why the ending of the game might differ from the original in this case. It may be due to a lack of context, a human error (which is possible because translators are human, plus many people offer themselves as translators when they just know a language, and, since they do it for cheaper, they get the job), a choice made by the own company, a translation that went first through Google Translate before reaching the translator's hands (which happens so often it has a job category in the industry), etc.
At the end of the day, we would only have a clear answer if we could talk to the person responsible for the job.
Imagine if the NPCs could hear Jack's insults before they respawn
I’ve been trying to think of a clever reply that sounds similar too “I am Malenia, Blade of Miquella” but I can’t think of one.
My reply would be “I’m Bladeslasher, I slice my enemies in half “
I think that would sound cool but I don’t know
@@snorseburger7381 tell her that, her cousin is boneong her brother while she naps a tree.
"I am Dinkle bamp, Son of Double bamp"
I love how Godfrey basically just goes, "fuck it, I'll actually try now"
"Aight, my turn. Hold my lion."
This is his second playthrough of an Elden Ring run after all. He was trying a different build till he was getting his ass beat.
@@Thagyr Jack said this is his 8th playthrough lol
@@Ledhead223 Was referring to Godfrey.
The elden ring was destroyed because Ranni killed Marika’s beloved son, Godfrey.
The montage at the end of this video was actually the most beautiful piece of media I’ve seen in years. I’ve watched this series like 10 times and just saw it. Actually crying
Jack: This is the HARDEST boss in the game
Also Jack: * beats her on his first attempt *
Because he’s using Rivers
And mimic tear
Considering 99% of the community seem to say Malenia is the hardest as well, I think it's just that Mimic + Rivers is a broken combo (or at least was at the time of release - I don't know what sort of balance patches they've done since then).
@@robloxcool88rivers sucks now
@@gemstoneclouds2242 It doesn't suck, it's mid, and not broken, but it doesn't suck.

also, timestamp?
He is a jack o' lantern
Elden Ring: " i introduce you the hardest boss fight we have "
Jack: " YAYYY first try "
Jack = 'LET ME SOLE HER' 2.0
i mean .. with a ash summon
@@musicmakespeace i did the same but im greatsword user so ye i died a lot
@@musicmakespeace it's less ash summon and more rivers of blood
@@literalcancer8810 After getting her to 20% hp second phase multiple times with a faith build, I gave up and switched to bleed and soloed her first try, if you don't want her to be she's not that difficult.
When I first made it to Marika and seen her turn into Radagon I was thinking oh shit, Radagon disguised himself as Marika and took the fall for her and she is still out there somewhere. It took me way too long to realize that they were the same being. lol
Lets take a moment to appreciate the level of editing Sean's editor did in these videos. Such a phenomenal job!!
Jacksepticeye: "Elden Ring is probably my third favorite fromsoft game."
Elden Ring: "Foul Tarnished. My form is not yet true. Wait now, for a DLC or two."

Wouldn’t be sad if there wasn’t.
Jack:This hardest boss in game
Also Jack: has more trouble with a tree root 💀
trees don't bleed and he couldn't use summons
@@finnpp9717 joke
beat the game so many times, yet need a way too op mimic? boring to watch. knows everything. mimic does most work..
@@Luuk- bruh
@@Luuk- lmao
my favourite lines taken out of context in this episode:
"i don't really need to kill everybody... but damn does it feel good"
"there's a lot of hard dudes in here"
"let's commit the first cardinal sin, shall we... haha"
"it's very religious, it's very jesus"
"[i do solemnly swear] that i am up to no good"
*everything is a jojo reference*
"let's leave you as naked as when you came into this world, dinklebamp"
*honorary mention to the long lONG MAAAaaAn scene near the end*
I think what makes the line “and I have never known defeat” more sad is I think she doesn’t mean just combat wise but shes talking about the rot within herself she doesn’t let it defeat her she finds a way to keep fighting for her brother never giving up
The Elden Beast is, honestly, exactly what I always pictured when _Bloodborne_ talked about the Great Ones -- an immense being whose form defies simple descriptions (indeed, one might say _formless_ in a way, like Oedon), transcendent and resplendent as it dances in its ageless deep sea, utterly indifferent to the strange bipedal brass pumpkin poking it in the shins.
It's a big slug with a sword.
@@capness1228 a big space slug with a sword
I mean it is technically part of the greater will
the fact that he got the elden ring while wearing a pumpkin head is marvelous
@@beefyikes6790 SPACE Slug!
For Melenia’s lore some speculated that she had bloomed her Scarlet Aeonia twice already up until your fight. When she was defeated by you in the first phase, she used the bloom for the 3rd time which transformed her into the Goddess of Rot. Pretty cool!
There’s 2 or 3 routes to get to Malenia’s boss room and one of them leads to a room with a scarlet bloom before the grace. It also drops a maiden outfit but I agree with our fight being her 3rd bloom unless she kept the 1st bloom for some reason
@@arispade8152 Oh yeah, your probably right! First bloom was the fight with Rodahn, Second in the room you said, and third when you fight with Melenia. I’m curious why she used her second bloom though. 🤔
@@xXHoruga05Xx my only theory is she was so distraught from being without Miquella (when he was in the Haligtree) she bloomed another time. I think she only blooms in stressful or dramatic events but I’m not entirely sure
It's confirmed in the incantation Scarlet Aeonia's description that she has bloomed twice before and will become a goddess after the third time.
@@xXHoruga05Xx WAIT A MINUTE *SPOILERS AHEAD* if you do Millicent’s quest line you find out she’s related to Malenia. Then, if you go back to Sage Gowry after you complete her quest line he says “why do you reject us like your mother did?” So possibly Malenia’s second bloom was the birth of Millicent 🤯 plus, the maiden outfit dropped at the 2nd bloom is Millicent’s clothing (also Melina’s but idk how she would fit in the storyline) idk why I haven’t heard people talk about this
1:12:37 I don't think anyone actually said they wanted a word-for-word translation of the original Japanese dialogue. Most people know that adapting dialogue from one language to another will always involve concessions, but in this case there were indeed some confusing word choices.
Basically, the way Ranni's lines were adapted made it sound like she was going to throw the world into a state of isolation of the soul, and that the "fear, doubt and loneliness" was meant for everyone, when in truth she meant that the gods, order and all things divine should remain out of reach so humanity could make its own choices, and SHE was embarking on a scary, lonely journey into the cosmos to ensure that.
That's important context that I feel was muddied in the way it was worded. But what do I know, there's probably a hundred other comments down here saying the exact same thing by now. Just throwing my two cents in. Very fun let's play, btw!
You deserve more likes, so here is a nice comment for you. Thank you for your two cents. You've made a great contribution, I was personally wondering what the context and what Ranni meant about that line, so thank you for bringing me into the light and clearing it up. Good job, and have a good now. Goodbye 👋
@@TheSonOfNight Why thank you!
@@WanderingRagabond You're welcome!
Yeah, hello 2 years later, I hope this comment finds you well. I too was a bit confused about her words at the end. But this makes a lot of sense and thank you for your 2 cents
I still can't believe this is only from a year ago, i always thought it was way older.
I been revisiting this series as someone who does not know anything about Fromsoft games I really enjoy these videos and of Jack just talking positively about something he likes.
Here’s to hoping for another run and possibly another ending and adventure with the great bamp this chapter was amazing and hopefully just the beginning
I love how Elden beast just didn’t do any of his annoying attacks.
hey im on the road to 5k can you help?
It worked out like that for almost every tutorial I saw when I had trouble with them. A true conspiracy.
He did the tracking orb like once for me, also he did the grab but I think I hit him at the exact same time bc it went through the grab animation but I didn't take any damage so that was fuckin lucky
Nor did malenia lol
@@J-Coops_ it has a grab..?!
Months late to this series, but my thoughts on Ranni: She hasn't been mistranslated; Japanese is such an incredibly high context language, to directly translate her would be just as difficult to understand as this. To me, her ending means not only reducing the influence and presence of the gods, but that people of the world of Elden Ring would live with the same uncertainties and darkness that we have in our own world. Darkness, uncertainty, loneliness, these are endemic to our own world, and its up to us and our ability to make and find community to alleviate and cure these problems. She's not evil, she just doesn't want the will of the gods to infringe upon people's ability to live.
Side note, thoughts on Melina also being a child of Marika?
Well in a way ranni being an empyrean, the greater will was grooming her to replace marika at some point. Probably due to the history of what the greater will has tasked marika to do (exterminate the Giants, wage war with the academy and then divorcing radagon from rennala which drove her insane among other things) ranni then decided to break from the yoke of the greater will. Of course if she gave signs of rebellion, blaidd or someone else would dispose of her. So she tricked the Nox people and gave them a piece of the rune of death to hunt down the golden child, which kick-started the shattering.
I've always thought of it in a similar manner. Ranni's age is the age of the stars and the moon. In the Lands Between, these have direct ties to sorcery and intelligence, with Ranni and Rennala both being mages with direct ties to the moon, even having spells representing it. So to bring an age of the stars may mean bringing an age of enlightenment and wisdom, where those in the Lands Between hold a higher importance on education and less on their faith in some god like the Greater Will or it's representative, the Golden Order. One line she says makes that stand out to me. "Here beginneth the chill night that encompasses all, reaching the great beyond. Into fear, doubt, and loneliness. As the path stretcheth into darkness." No longer will the golden light of the Golden Order or their faith in gods like the Greater Will shelter them from their fears and the darkness of the world. Now, their intelligence, wisdom, and cunning shall light their path.
“The sky is blue”🤦
I finally finished this game and couldn’t have done it without both Jack’s and Gab’s playthroughs. Never thought I’d cut it as a souls gamer, but man what a ride it’s been. Thanks guys for all your help and the countless hours of rewinding your videos to get through those stinky parts. ♥️
Jack: I completed Elden Ring 7 times!!!
Also Jack: These enemies heal?!
lol
Sometimes it happens, this isnt his first souls game, just imagine, he beat DS1-3 atleast once, bloodborne almost 20x, and sekiro atleast once.
He has enough skill to just go through the game in prob less than 30 hour on his first play,
@@rancor4513 im sure he said in one of the other videos that his first playthrough took him like 72 hours lol, but yeah the way he keeps beating enemies almost one times is nuts ahahha
In his defense they did buff the content in that area before he had a chance to do it again.
I think for Ranni's ending, it's less about where they're going, and more a metaphor. She keeps talking about the "dark path" and "the age of stars", I think it's supposed to be about making a world beyond the influence of the outer gods, where the people aren't touched by "the light" of order.
this is what i figgered out too
Yeah it was a mistranslation, she was actually a good person but they made her seem like a asshole in the English version. Crazy to think she free’d everyone in the lands.
@@HD_Kerino Did you even watch the end?
@@HD_Kerino I doubt they’d mistranslate something that big, and even so they would’ve done something by now
probably age of star is bloodborne
Bit late to the party here, but Hoarah Loux is expected to be Nepheli’s birth father. They both lost their grace and when she is made the new lord of Limgrave, Kenneth Haight says “proper lineage”, this signifies that she is technically royalty
This was Amazing Jack! I started the game a little while before you started uploading the series and I was so happy too see you play. It didn’t take long for you to get ahead of me in the story but I would pause the video before any spoilers could be seen. It gave me that extra goal to strive for. “Catch up to Dinklebamp, do for Jack!” I would say over and over when being stuck on a boss. This was wonderful, thank you so much for making such astonishing content accompanied with perfectly timed commentary. Thank you… my Elden Lord
"I am Malenia. Blade of Miquella. And I have never known defeat"

This is kind of late, but thank you Jack, for playing this game and explaining things along the way. I really enjoyed your entire playthrough of this series and have even elected to play the game myself, being my first venture into the Soulsborne games.
Truly Sean playing Bloodborne and Elden Ring got me to play both games. I always thought i was a casual gamer and always play on easy mode, but my fiancée knew i was into the world of Bloodborne and got me a copy but it took a long time for me to play. When I saw Sean play, I felt like I might be able to be somewhat guided and had a blast going through! And then I played Elden Ring after so many people advised me to and I loved it as well. Then Sean uploaded this playthrough and the new one and i love both, I keep coming back to this serie because it's a huge comfort serie to me. Thanks Sean
I legit can’t even begin to articulate how insanely gobsmacked I was when Jack beat Malenia in one go.
This "Blood Build" idea might be worth a shot!
He was a man with a katana wearing a ridiculous helmet. What did you expect?
It seems Malenia's weakness is weird helmets. First "Let Me Solo Her", now jack
the fact it took me like 50 to 60 different tries, i even used the same sword as him, i guess he’s just better 😂
R.O.B is a cheat word for her, I'm not the best FromSoft player and it took me 3 attempts to take her with it, even without the mimic because idiot me didn't pay attention to the map and never found it at the point I took Malenia on. I was using some big husky aggressive hairy boi. You just gotta give her no respect, fear makes the fight hard. 3rd time I was a bit more motivated to go, nah, you fight my fight lady.
If you go back to Ranni's tower, she'll explain a bit further what her goal is. She states that life, souls, and order are all tied together closely at the moment, and she would rather them be farther removed from each other. To me, it sounds like she basically wants to remove her Order from the earth to hopefully lessen/end the constant squabbling of mortals in service of that Order. Instead, it'd just be an outside force. Since this is a fundamental change to the nature of the world, it's shrouded in fear and uncertainty, and now we must walk that road with her.
@@emeraldbonsai Jack disagreed with that. He already replied to this type of comment before.
@@emeraldbonsai Did you not listen to Jack's entire speech about the translation?
@@eenochian like you gotta love how when someone who doesn't speak fluent Japanese just believes online articles that love clickbait titles of "RANNIS SPEECH WAS TRANSLATED WRONG, HERES HOW I KNOW AND YOU DONT" like Jesus it's annoying.

Sounds about how I understood it too.
@@requiem2026 His speech is wrong, in the original script it doesn't use any of the types of words he and Evelyn was talking about. Her dialogue is 100% fucking mistranslated, like they literally translated "Instruction Manual" into "Cookbook" not to mention, in Portuguese a lot of items didn't even have translations until they patched it. Is it so hard to fucking believe these people can make mistakes?
Wow, this series was an absolute blast to watch! The boss battles, world designs, lore, armor, just everything really, was phenomenal! Love how obviously passionate you are about it as well. 20/10 playthrough 👏👏!
When jack was talking at the end about translation and words in other languages not having English translations and the perfect example is from my language (welsh) and the word is "hiraeth"
Jack at the end of the game: Maybe we should fight Tree Sentinel
Tree Sentinel: and I took that personally.
As lousy as that was, the comedic timing was golden.
Halberd?
During the credits, I was sitting and thinking "It would be cool if Sean played through some of the other Souls games" just for him to say he is considering it a few minutes later. Please do this. I am not a big Souls Player (watching you made me play Sekiro, and I love the hell out of it and the story keeps me going through the hardest of fights), but love watching you play through them.
Jack when I watched ur ending (which was very well edited) it brings tears through my eyes on seeing clips of how to started with Ronnie to the end will all the memories between. This is truly and enjoyable game with wonderful lore and I could go watch other RUclipsrs for other perspectives but your beginning, main story, and ending just brings an energy not many could hit and feel satisfied from when they part. So thank you for making these series and I can't wait to see your next video.
This was genuinely an enjoyable experience I loved the way the playthrough went the pace and the way the lore was explained at the specific place or time related to it I watched other playthroughs of elden ring but I finnaly got the lore of it the way the story flows so thx for putting it out there looking forward to your other souls series
Jack's boss attack RNG was almost God tier this ENTIRE run- we barely saw any of the bosses big attacks- He got so lucky!
For real, almost no bs moves on any of them
I think it's just Rivers of Blood being WAY too broken that the fight ended a lot faster than it should, not to mention that he was using mimic so that's like RoB x2.
Imo that weapon is the ultimate mercy given by the devs to those that just wanna have fun and go through the lore of the game, or to someone that just wanna be done with the boss that he's been stuck on for too long, you know. It serves the purpose of this playthrough of Jack's well since he's basically just being a tourguide instead of a let's-player.
It's that he already knows the bosses before he fights them, abuses mimic tear with RoB. Some bit of it is by luck, but seriously he already knew the bosses before he fights them.
so much i would say its suspicious
Ok I've never gotten this much attention on a comment and I'm terrified 😨
I would agree on the part of translations, until you realize they made “Instruction Manual” into “Cookbook” among other things.
Ranni’s ending is destroying the Golden Order to allow the people to govern themselves, then you and her take a thousand year voyage among the stars. You and her, not everyone else.
Omg this sounds so much nicer than I thought I would love to travel with a moon goddess
yeah anime translations get messed up all the time so I wouldn't be surprised if the translations aren't 100% accurate
@@rexyboii278 It's not a one-to-one translation, but rather a localization. There's more that goes into it than just translating the script word for word and calling it a day

I love these Playthroughs. It really feels like you're just authentically sharing something you enjoy, do a very good job of bringing the viewers into it and it does super well on RUclips still. Having gotten into the Souls games myself recently, I watched the Bloodborne and Elden Ring series after finishing the games and it does feel kind of special seeing your prospective on the game. Definitely would love to see this kind of series for Dark Souls 1 and 3!
First try malenia and she didn’t even do waterfowl dance…
That was just beautiful to watch
Bro she did it to me but somehow I dodged the entire attack and didn’t take any damage bro I was scared
@@Lyn_405 It depends on the direction of your dodge, I think. First “sweep” you can dodge back, but the second “sweep” you dodge forward and completely evade the rest of the hitboxes for the move.
The soul is called "remembrance of the Rot Goddess" so more than likely, while fighting you she transformed into the goddess of Rot, which was that winged form.
EDIT: Her first time blooming was at the base of the Haligtree, which is why the tree is rotted from the inside. the second time she bloomed was in Aeonia while fighting General Radahn and this time was more potent, shrounding the region of Caelid in Rot. and the third and final time was in the middle of the fight while she was on the edge of death, she became the Goddess of Rot.
In the second phase her healthbar literally says "Malenia, Goddess of Rot"
he's also wrong about why Miquella created the haligtree. it was so he could implant himself in it so he could grow into an adult and then have enough power to maybe cure his sister.
If you go into the side room right before her you see another rot bloom, meaning the one during the fight was the third
Or at least that’s how I see it
@@harrisonshanks3114 Mommy of rot is another acceptable name.
This was my first Souls game, and I’ve been playing through the series after I beat this the 3rd time! I think Elden Ring will always be my favorite of the series, but hearing what you said at the end makes me really excited for my eventual Bloodborne playthrough! And what I’ve heard about the lore REALLY intrigues me!
Since I was a kid I could never beat any of these games, so it makes me kinda proud of myself that I have gotten good enough to where I can beat them!
Anyway, I’m glad that you liked this game too, and I definitely hope to watch you play more of these games! (Tho I’ll try not to watch them until I beat the games for myself first! No spoilers LOL!)
Edit: I have since played through Bloodborne and I liked it more than Elden Ring. Which I thought was impossible for me to like something more than Elden Ring.
patch (and the whole edit) at the end giving me real feels
When he said "definitely DS3", I almost squealed. I would absolutely LOVE to see you play the game that introduced me to FromSoft, and the Soulsborne experience. Watching you play Bloodborne and then Elden Ring has been so awesome, and I'm so glad that the big names are finally giving them the time they deserve. I look forward to seeing our Elden Lord taking his throne as Lord of Cinder
He tried, but finished the game off camera
Jack, personally I think we're at a state where we all absolutely want to see more from Fromsoft on your channel. Between your engaging commentary and explaining the lore in good but sized chunks that doesn't scare newcomers away, I think you're one of the best fits for playing this game. Hell, even that aside it's absolutely lovely watching someone I look up to play things they love ever so dearly. It's been a good walk on Elden Ring and experiencing it with you(I literally play while watching you). Hope we can take another journey through these twisted and beautiful worlds, and see the other lands that may lay between :)
Agreed! I'd love to see Jack do a Sekiro play-through.
Also, anything he does I love and I'm sure the rest of you feel similarly. I'm so happy he does games he enjoys and not just the games people like and what's popular
@@skwadkat628 Couldn't agree more!
Absolutely!!!!
yea im down for any souls like game on this channel
Elden beast fighting jack: just swings sword
Elden beast fighting me: spams the crucified move
I'm inclined to believe that it's the third bloom when you fight Melenia given that the lake of rot exists, and exists very far from Caelid.
Left a like, rare commentator, but i really gotta say: just really love watching and listening to you play these games, you have a great voice for just explaining things you are interested in! And i really like playing these games as you are doing them in the background :)
Hardest part would be deciding which of Rannis hands to grab in the ending.
You go in between and make a sandwich
the one with the ring on it
Hardest part is what she grabs with ALL 4 hands 😎
You miss cause you can't see through the pumpkin mask
@@karenamyx2205 this is a cursed comment but I love it
Finished watching your ds 1 and 3 playthroughs. Had me remebering how much I love and miss these games, especially with how passionate you are for them. Never played elden ring so decided to come give your series a watch. Love that you are ending this series saying how you want to play the other souls games from your channel, and im thinking hey past jacksepticeye, you did it, they were amazing, and they brought me back here to moment you were feeling inspired to play more souls games. Feels like a full circle moments. So pumped to try Elden ring now and revisit all the souls games. The way you exposition the lore over these playthroughs is top tier, keep it up. Thanks for the awesome vids.
This has hyped me up more for Shadow of the Erdtree. I went back to watch these videos again because of the trailer, and I just feel "stoked."
Now we shall wait for his God of War:ragnarok. Jack's playthroughs are always bangers.
I almost forgot that was going to be a thing, thanks for reminding me lol
Fr
I just beat God of war 4 yesterday. When does ragnarok come out?
@@oogachaka1629 some time this year,actual release yet to be announced

Jack I gotta say I started Elden Ring a couple weeks ago and have been loving it. I’ve used your videos as a guide and they have helped and been rather entertaining. These videos gave me hope that even Malania can be defeated and I have beaten the final boss in the game today and gotten the Age of Stars ending. All thanks to you Jack, keep up the great videos man from one elden lord to another.
From what i have looked up, ranni's ending is essentially giving everything free will, being free from an outer god and letting them do things for themselves.
Ranni: "I do solemnly swear..."
Everyone, All At Once: "...That I am up to no good."
No
That made me laugh so much when he said it
@@lenaruiiz Same, considering I said the same thing at the same time. It was almost spooky, the timing of it.
Me and Sean said that at same time
@@temarinara77 Same, the timing was _perfect._
I believe there's a video somewhere pointing out that there's actually a carving on the moon that resembles a rune. That is probably Ranni's great rune.
What she did at the end was probably transfering the elden ring to the moon to join hers. Therefore nobody on the planet would be able to tamper with it. At least until people invent a way to travel to the moon. But even then, she'll be there, along with her tarnished consort, to guard the elden ring. Be it from other human or outer gods. After all, her consort has proven that he/she can slay an avatar of god, and she herself posseses the fingerslayer blade that can inflict mortal wound on divine beings.
Also of important note, Ranni actually planned to do all that by herself (as written on her wedding ring). By giving the ring back to her, the Tarnished is pretty much pledging themselves to accompany her on the lonesome path of keeping the elden ring way from the grasp of other outer gods.
Well now I'm imagining a Souls game as a sci fi taking place in spaceships, dead planets, and scarred moons.
Could you imagine if there was another game where you have to defeat Ranni's consort? All the while knowing they were the Elden God you created? Man epic story
I love how I just finished watching through all of the episodes again last night and then Critical streamed about the new DLC for Elden Ring lol
I just started playing Elden Ring with my friend a few weeks ago. When I saw you did a series on it, I absolutely wanted to watch it. You gave me the inspiration to do a bleed build! Loved watching your videos to learn a lot more about the lore of the game. Thank you for doing this series!! Love your stuff
Jack: Finishes Elden Ring
Me: “We will all hold together for this special experience of a game.”
God bless you and whoever reads this, Jesus loves you ,
Me who didn't watch a single episode: 😐👍
Crazy tough warrior: "I have met my match."
Camera pans over to Dinklebamp with a pumpkin on his head.
Dinklebamp, first Pumpkin Lord
29:50 I think she Bloomed in Heart of Aeonia, then in her fight with General Radahn to count as the second bloom and then when you defeated her first phase she bloomed for the third time transforming her into the Rot Goddess, she was like "The Scarlet blooms flowers once more, you will witness true horror" which could entail that she has become the Rot goddess.
1:11:05 yeah, in filipino we have the word "kilig" which is the feeling of having butterflies in your stomach,tickling feeling in your chest and the immense joy you feel in response to your crush/significant other. Yeah there's no direct,1-to-1 word translation in english for that
Malenia bloomed first in Caelid, the second bloom was close to the malenia fight grace (the room next to it) and she blooms once more once you "kill" her in first phase of the fight, meaning you're fighting the litteral embodiment of the rot goddess.
FYI there's a bloom just to the left of her boss room, that's the second, and she became a goddess during the fight (her title changes to goddess of rot)
I do wonder if that bloom before the boss room is actually Malenia's... it's so small and has the traveler's set on it, which is what Malenia's daughters/Millicent & her sisters wear...
and there's no remaining evidence of a first bloom in Caelid anywhere, so idk if they'd all have physical evidence
@@kennyjac The first bloom can be found in caelid, it's the giant tree with the blooms on it.
Hello Jack, I just want to say that I love your videos and you have always been such a joy to watch for so long. I never thought that I would ever even be playing a souls game or enjoying them as much as I do, but I'm extremely glad that I stumbled across your Bloodborne series. The first time I played through Bloodborne I was watching your series as I played and it was such a magical experience being able to play what is now one of my favorite games while also having my favorite RUclipsr play through it right beside me. I didn't enjoy Elden Ring as much at first, but watching your videos made me come back to it and I just can't get enough. These games have become some of my favorites in the past months and I would like to thank you for being my introduction to such incredible games. I can't wait to see more of Dinklebamp and Bonk in the future and I look forward to the few FromSoft games I have left to play.
Love how I started watching this about a week ago and the dlc release date was announced yesterday 😂🎉 the timing was godly
I’m going to miss Jack talking about the lore so passionately it’s also very satisfying hearing the lore in a short but extremely good explanation.
I love the reference to Middle Earth on Marika's hammer. "Stone hammer made in the lands of Numen, outside the Lands Between." It's nice to see an homage to Numenor in a game that feels so much like a descendant to Lord of the Rings
whenever i play this game, i always have your playthrough in the background or on my second monitor playing.
I watched the Dark Souls 1 play-through a couple weeks ago and subsequently discovered/watched the Bloodborne play-through and just finished this series. Oddly neat to hear you talk about doing the Dark Souls play through say the end too! Best two weeks of internet content of my life.
Malenia bloomed 2 times prior, one fighting Radahn, and the other in Aeonia. Then the third is when you fight her and that’s why her name changes to the rot goddess.
Where is Aeonia?
@@EclipsaEldrich it's the rot lake in Caelid
Pretty sure the game mentions only one bloom, the one where she fought Radahn. After that, she was dragged to the Haligtree and she has slept ever since. In the boss fight, she blooms for the second time.
Well Jack I know speak for the majority of us when I say I absolutely enjoyed your Elden Ring and Bloodborne walkthroughs. Not only were they fun lengthy episodes, but informative and full of lore dumps as well which helps us viewers keep track of what's happening in the story.
I do hope you plan on doing the other FromSoft games too in the future, but if you don't then we completely understand. It is entirely up to you! Can't wait to see what you play next :D
The lore revalations from the dlc is insane, the fact that miquella and malenia planned this so that miquella coould become a god. I always thought malenia was waitng for mohg to return but she was actually waiting for mohg. crazy
God that cinematic end, they outdo themselves again and again, and OF COURSE we'd love to see you play all the Souls games! My face lights up at such a notion
Don’t reply to the bot, it boosts interaction
@@xnotasweatx dont worry, I tend to just report it and leave it as that
Everyone: *has a really hard time defeating melina
Jack: ha ha sword goes swoosh
Yeah, all it took was the most over powered status effect in the game + one of the best ashes of war in the game + a mimic using the same set up and around 3 + runs of the game. I'm pretty sure anyone can 1-2 try her blind with that set up.
*malenia
My dude RoB is literally considered a cheese against (not saying I do, but many do) Malenia lmao.
@@walnut6871 I say it's cheese. 😂 I also just hate bloodloss builds because I find them annoying. Many (if not all) of the npc invaders use bloodloss. They aren't better than you, they just have cheese weapons/ashes of war that let them ignore any vigor investment or armor or shields that you might be building.
@@jamesbolt1003 damn true
I was finishing ng+ yesterday and Okina hits like a fckn firetruck. ~50 vigor, some medium armor, hp talisman AND MORGOTT'S RUNE didn't help, he just killed me with one AoW... the range on that thing is too wild, sadly.

I don't expect to ever play a Soul game myself, but I love watching you play through them, Séan! You know what you're doing and where to go, you explain the lore in ways that make sense, and you make it fun and entertaining the whole time! It's like watching an older brother play his game while also making it curated just for me! Thank you so much for sharing a great game that means a lot to you, Séan.
Honestly I am one of those people that didn’t get the hype on the soulsborne games but after watching Bloodborne and now Elden Ring I’ve gone and started my own Elden ring run….and I am seriously in love. I can’t thank you enough
The souls games are amazing. Dark Souls 3 is the easiest, while the first one is the hardest. The second one, well, it's hard too but it's also the only that isn't the best. And Bloodborne, don't get me started. That games is absolutely amazing.
Jack, talking about the sewers: "It's just a really shit area."
My brain: "Ha, get it?"
I had the same idea
🤣 it's a really good silly joke
Seeing this goofy little comment hearted by Jack is honestly just the little pick me up I needed right now. Headed into "dead week" (the week for finals) with impending deadlines for big projects, so I'm dealing with a lot of stress right now. Much love, and wish me luck everyone.
@@jacobknox750 good luck man
@@jacobknox750 good luck with those exams dear stranger.
Hey Jack I just wanted to say I all ways wanted to play Elden Ring and I came across your video and I just fell in love with the series. I want to thank you for doing this, I all ways enjoy your play throughs too.
As a big dark souls fan I must thank you for my love for bloodborne. At first I was repulsive about trailers and screenshots, idea of gun parry and your series just suck me in and it is my favorite from fromsoftware too.
Now elden ring, I'm buying it.
I nearly cried when he said that well see Dinklbamp again because this game was really fun to watch and I’m sad it’s over, but I’m looking forward to the next game.
He kinda late for this type of video because he was busy, if only he could stream elden ring right after elden ring released, people would get hyped!
I think I speak for the majority of us when I say we'd love to see playthrough of the Dark souls games. These kinds of playthroughs are so fun and Jack's also a great storyteller when it comes to explaining the lore.
“I’d love dlc for this”. You might want to sit down for this one.
Great series Sean 👍 seriously. I've been pretty sick for the past week or so and I just want to say that your videos and especially your longer series of videos, like elden ring, have really helped me take my mind off of things and just laugh and go through these amazing worlds with you. You inspire me and I wish you the best. Keep doing what you're doing man. I'm proud of you 👍👍
For me why this series is good is the fact, these series is not a %100 or a playthrough. Its a guy that knows the game and showing you the best stuff and its incredible
I loved this elden ring play through and especially jack still enjoying it just as much the 7th time around
Bro it just got posted no way u watched it all
@Christofer Foodist 🅥⸜⁄ dude that is not funny
Since my other comment just vanished, just do what is needed to get the hateful remarks gone. :)
God bless you and whoever reads this, Jesus loves you ,
Loved the playthrough but not the game lol he showed the best stuff not everything like 70% of the game is repetitive enemies or bosses, large maps with nothing relevant, annoying places that are not worth going to, copy & paste dungeons with the same fking enemies 🙄 ppl give this game too much credit it's stretched for the sake of it, it would be a much MUCH better game if 50% of it was just cut completely better than ds3 if it was reduced I couldn't bring myself to even finish it again because a large part is boring asf
Disclaimer: I am not translator.
I think a lot of that sort of "bad translation" take hearkens back to how a lot of 80's and 90's Japanese games had TONS of localization issues, from a silly "This guy are sick" in FF7 or the ever classic "All your base are belong to us" to entire characters being different in different versions of a game. Needless to say, localization teams have expanded since the 80s and 90s, which means that the "bad translation" articles are more for clicks more often than not. At least that's my understanding of the thing.
ive never watched or cared for this kind of games but this playthrough was amazing and i really appreciate it, i will be 100% watching the rest of the from soft games on your channel, love you jack, obviously i have never seen another game like this, but i would have to give Elden ring a 10/10 i loved it so much and all the lore and story is incredible!
No doubt Jack is skilled, but seeing Malenia not do waterfowl a single time during that fight made me so sad because she keeps spamming it in my playthrough 😪
ROB+Mimic tear will do that to you
Imo, the whole thing was dumb. I'm sure ppl would've liked to see actual gameplay. Skilled? I mean yea but when you have an OP build & mimic that does a lot
Happened the same with me. Those were pretty much the only attacks which hit me and killed me.
