Bayle is hands down my favorite fight in the whole of Elden Ring because Igon is here with me hurling insults and harpoons, Igon makes the fight a 1000% more epic.
“BEHOLD A TRUE DRAKE WARRIOR! AND I .. IGON!!” Bro hyped us up so damn much 😭 like yeah I failed but this dude is the real deal ! And with my help we gonna whoop your ass & lord knows I needed his help😂 those little moments where bro would get his attention so I could pop a flask or healing incantation were clutch asf . And I made sure he got the killing blow .
@@bdbgh Igon is the type of NPC that does the perfect way of convincing the player to use summons in a boss fight! I think Siegward in DS3 with Yhorm is similar from what I heard from others though I couldn't do his questline.
He crafted dragonslaying harpoons one by one with the last ounces of his strength, and dragged his broken body all the way up the mountain, even as he lay dying in the mud, in anticipation for this moment. According to his armor, Igon was a desperately poor scavenger who had finally found meaning in his life through dragon communion, but Bayle absolutely destroyed him. I love how he says: “Behold! A true drake warrior, AND I, Igon!” It’s the sweetest compliment from such a badass.
At first, i thought Igon was an insane old man who would invade me for a dragonstone. But it turns out he is a insane old man that wants revenge on all drakes, so he hypes us to beat Bayle, and all he asks is to be our comrade and participate in killing Bayle, literal chad.
He doesn’t care about finding Miquella or becoming Elden Lord or saving the world. He has no higher aspirations other than to kill this one dragon he hates so fucking much before peacing out of life completely. He doesn’t even care if either you or him deals the finishing blow, all that matters is that there’s one less dread dragon in the world and its all the better for it.
You can tell his voice actor is absolutely insane, by the delivery of those last lines. You can tell that Igon is on the verge of crying tears of joy having finally defeated Bayle. Unironically, I think Igon has the best voice acting in the entire series, hands down.
I'm still fighting Bayle, and everytime I summon him a shiver goes doen my spine Damn I get even distracted at times What an amazing work! Edit : I got him a few minutes ago, 10/10 would do it again💕
@@1missingI really think this speech is better, Igon literally hypes you up, like “I am strong and all but THIS guy, this guy is the real deal, you are screwed bayle”
This guy goes so hard. Especially once you read his armor and realize that he was a cowardly scavenger until he finally found an honorable calling as a dragon slayer. Who would’ve thought my man had balls so huge they’d make Greyroll blush
The first time i faced Bayle, Igon yelled his second set of lines during the phase transition. It was the coolest thing I think I have ever witnessed in a video game
It's refreshing for an NPC to not talk themselves up, berate you and then be useless. Igon instead hypes YOU up and is actually useful. What a chad. Best VA in Elden Ring too, such passion!
That's something I've always felt Sekiro did a lot better than the Souls games. Actors putting their entire soul into their performances, giving them the larger than life personalities that contrast the misery of the world around them
@@ExtraStage300it puts him to closure but again it's Fromsoft, he dies. Though a relieving death and not a tragic one. My guy's source for living with ruined limbs is pure hatred against Bayle
@@xylonus Closure is literally the most satisfying ending someone can get. I think I would happily face the reaper knowing I accomplished everything I set out to do.
@@ITBEurgava Yeah and he admits to it. But his forced hearty laughs and all, I feel, are an attempt to distract himself from the reality of his situation. And he knows he’s not exactly the ideal drake warrior- he’s a poor scavenger just trying to find meaning in his life. He’s not dishonest about his shortcomings, but he kind of is trying to distract from them, I feel.
I thought he was referring to himself as a true drake warrior but nope. Dude was hyping YOU up as Bayle's true slayer, not him. He was there knowing he could be the distraction, support or even the sacrifice to kill Bayle and he accepted it.
I've always felt like the voice acting in Elden ring was super monotone for every character. This might be the first character in the game I've heard emotion in at all, and he went above and beyond.
@@witherwarrior1148 to be fair, generally, emotionless is the vibe they're going for. most characters in elden ring are very high and mighty, very full of themselves. monotone fits, no?
@@Desinole83 You're right, but I just find it odd that not one character (that I can think of atm) was written to have lots of emotion. It gave the characters no variety in my opinion. It was like they all had the same personality.
@@witherwarrior1148 I dunno, alexander and blaidd are both very well voice acted, and they may not be as emphatic about the way they speak but their VA's put a lot of emotion into their lines I think. not to mention shabriri.
@@witherwarrior1148 also sorry to spam you but I just thought of 2 more characters with pretty underrated VA's, those being the dung eater and blackguard big boggart. they're both so unique and so well done.
Did you know? That's because you can actually hear him scream "Curse you, Bayle!" from the bottom of the mountain before he even spawns in. My source? Trust me bro.
Richard Lintern the performer/actor that you are. I hope you read this and know what an amazing job you've done. Absolutely blown away by the sheer emotion you deliver here! Wow
The Priestess says he’s her favorite out of all the dragonslayers. I can see why. Even wounded, wrecked, and bodily broken, Igon has the soul of a dragon.
That quiver in his voice for his last line really sells how scared and horrified Igon was, but he crawled up that mountain and faced Bayle down anyway. What a hero.
This mans delivery made me change my build. I was a mage, I used a larval tear just so I could melee this great beast side by side with A TRUUUEE DRAKKEE WARRIOR!!
I’m not a fan of using summons in souls games (I don’t care if others use them it’s just a personal thing) but like I had to summon igon for bayle like HOW COULD I NOT.
The best part is because he’s a summon that you pick up inside the arena (Like Alexander for the Fire Giant) he doesn’t add a multiplier to Bayle’s health.
@@masoncarothers6515I’ve noticed they do that for all the story related summons which is cool so you don’t screw yourself into a harder fight. Hornsent is like that with Messmer and also Ansbach and Thiollier in final fight which is nice.
I'm playing through the DLC without using summons/ashes personally..but I couldn't deny Igon when he specifically asked me to summon him, so I made an exception. And fuck was it worth it.
Honestly, I already loved Igon just for the fact that he finally gave me the opportunity to put that altered head piece on my builds ronin armor, which I wanted to do since it was just the “ragged set.” Then we get hit with these over-the-top lines, his quest line taking us uo a jagged mountain with some seriously ominous buildup and ambience, all culminating in an incredible, brutal boss fight with awesome lore implications, to which he adds yet more excitement(and a bit of hilarity) to an already epic battle with his scenery chewing… I swear even dying to bayle as much as I did wasn’t too rage inducing for me, just because every time I died, even at the peak of my frustration, all I could think/say was, “CUUUUURSE! YOOOOU! BAAAAAAYLE!!!”
I believe Igon has his own greatbow ash of war called Igon's Drake Hunt! You can get it after you defeat Bayle with him, back where you saw him after the jagged peak drake.
@@julpples i found out that just yesterday after finding his corpse (rip Igon), the tarnished also performs a shout but still Igon has his own unique roar that i noticed. Thanks for adding to this!
The showcase is great, but I personally love the instance where you realize you're out of blue flasks and just turn around and start jump-attacking. I could almost see your character shrug their shoulders.
hahaha yeah I totally forgot to reallocate and was like oh whoops 🤣 there's also the phase transition where I realized Bayle was targeting Igon and I just decided to watch lol
@@hiduck8247 they go for european actor for souls games specially bcs it's fits the tone of the Game, this actors do theatre, have works in tv and movies and other types of shows, they have a lot of experience in acting, thats why their performance of voice acting in media are really good, in the case of Igon(Richard Lintern) he has a lot of experience in the areas i said that explains how he gave that great voice and he even give Igon a crack in his voice with his last line, btw for what we know Miyazaki is with the voice actors to help the voice direction along with the person in command of directing the voice acting
Need the VA, Richard Lintern, to read Ahab's "To the last, I grapple with thee; From Hell's heart, I stab at thee; For hate's sake, I spit my last breath at thee!"
(spoiler warning). The fact that Igon only succumbs to the injuries inflicted by Bayle after Bayle is slain really shows how much hatred he had for Bayle. Not even being crippled stopped Igon from being summoned into Bayle's arena!
I miss that mechanic a lot hahaha, and I am a Monster Hunter player after all. There's so many dragons and beasts in this game, the mechanic would be super rewarding!
I think Bayle and other bosses gets I-frames when they catch someone with a grab attack. Bayle grabbed Igon at that moment. I also wish they bring back cuttable tails from dragons
Thank you so much for compiling and sharing this. Richard Lintern gives the best performance I've heard since Gyobu Masataka Oniwa in Sekiro. And he just keeps going on, his voice never faltering.
Bros hate is in another level
His hate is our motivation.

Wanna be 200% motivated and hyped up to kill a Dragon of Dread? Have no fear, your buddy Igon is here to do the job with 400% delivery.
Real, the war screams made me forget that I was fighting a dragon that severely wounded the Dragonlord himself
Bayle is hands down my favorite fight in the whole of Elden Ring because Igon is here with me hurling insults and harpoons, Igon makes the fight a 1000% more epic.
The only monologue that made me more hyped every time I restarted the fight. Igon's intensity was infectious.
“BEHOLD A TRUE DRAKE WARRIOR! AND I .. IGON!!”
Bro hyped us up so damn much 😭 like yeah I failed but this dude is the real deal ! And with my help we gonna whoop your ass & lord knows I needed his help😂 those little moments where bro would get his attention so I could pop a flask or healing incantation were clutch asf . And I made sure he got the killing blow .
@@bdbgh Igon is the type of NPC that does the perfect way of convincing the player to use summons in a boss fight!
I think Siegward in DS3 with Yhorm is similar from what I heard from others though I couldn't do his questline.
He crafted dragonslaying harpoons one by one with the last ounces of his strength, and dragged his broken body all the way up the mountain, even as he lay dying in the mud, in anticipation for this moment. According to his armor, Igon was a desperately poor scavenger who had finally found meaning in his life through dragon communion, but Bayle absolutely destroyed him. I love how he says:
“Behold! A true drake warrior, AND I, Igon!” It’s the sweetest compliment from such a badass.
Holy shit! I didn’t even notice he was talking about us when he said that! Damn, that makes it even better!
Even though he just met us, he looked up to us as we are drake hunter brothers but he thought himself lesser then us
He's honestly my most favourite npc from the dlc now, one of my most favourite in the whole game, same level as Blaidd, Alexander and Miriel
this moment is 1000% cooler if your build is based around dragon communion incantations, it felt like this entire questline was made for me lmao
He also tore off his finger, his actual finger in order for you to summon him for his help
I like how normally it takes 5 or so seconds for a summon to actually spawn in, but Igon wastes no time and gets to work immediately
Tbh the first few times I summoned him I thought he was saying his whole speech before getting to work 😂
All NPC summons in the boss arena summon immediately
Bro is Bayle's biggest hater. He ain't got no time for loading lmao
there's no time for him to make a dramatic entrance, he's there to throw hands in no time.
@@TheGamingStorage69420he does make a dramatic entrance though. He points an arrow at Bayle like a declaration of war and I love it.
At first, i thought Igon was an insane old man who would invade me for a dragonstone.
But it turns out he is a insane old man that wants revenge on all drakes, so he hypes us to beat Bayle, and all he asks is to be our comrade and participate in killing Bayle, literal chad.
He doesn’t care about finding Miquella or becoming Elden Lord or saving the world.

He doesn’t even care if either you or him deals the finishing blow, all that matters is that there’s one less dread dragon in the world and its all the better for it.
I literally though he would betray me and eat Bayle's heart or something just to almost cry after completing his goal and dying peacefully
Still an insane old man who's crippled but still determined to kill Bayle. Some people are born to hate.
@@VictorIV0310im pretty sure he doesnt even know who the fuck miqulla is
@@theenderdestruction2362 "what the fock is a Miquella? Is it a dragon?" -Igon the Chad

Dude was so badass honestly, Igon stopping Bayle's bite attack with his Dragon roar made me scream in awe.
@@anybk4070I didn’t know that summoning npc in a boss arena won’t allow the enemy buff. Nice 😊
This is like Siegward and Yhorm, but for opposite reasons.
I firmly believe the voice actor of Igon got the hand and leg severed by a Dragon in real life for this voice acting to be this perfect.
Taking method acting to unprecedented levels.
The Guy went to the dub studios without script and Miyazaki just kept rolling the voice record
Guy was given the name “Bayle” and just started going off
He fought Bayle over and over again to get angry enough
He had actually never voiceacted for a game before, he had no idea what Elden ring was or who his character was
Anyone who doesn't summon igon is a tarnished undeserving of the title elden lord
And maidenless too
I called the guy for my every try, every bit of the fight was perfection
@@DarkShadow-yg1tbI am a maidenless cur. Didn't notice his summon sign in the boss room so I missed these God tier lines 😭
@@mechamahou8467
Forget about the lines. You denied one of the maybe most likeable NPCs his last ultimate battle.
You can tell his voice actor is absolutely insane, by the delivery of those last lines. You can tell that Igon is on the verge of crying tears of joy having finally defeated Bayle.
Unironically, I think Igon has the best voice acting in the entire series, hands down.
That last line when his voice breaks puts a lump in my throat ;_;
Genuinely cant think of another better then Igon
I'm still fighting Bayle, and everytime I summon him a shiver goes doen my spine
Damn I get even distracted at times
What an amazing work!
Edit : I got him a few minutes ago, 10/10 would do it again💕
Its not a small feat to kill the dragon that menaged to give placidusax a run for his moneu
Strong contender is definitely Sir Vilhelm from ds3 ashes of ariendel
The best NPCs were a guy who worked for Mogh and another guy you met crying in the middle of the road 🤣

Honestly, I already loved Igon just for the fact that he finally gave me the opportunity to put that altered head piece on my builds ronin armor, which I wanted to do since it was just the “ragged set.”
Then we get hit with these over-the-top lines, his quest line taking us uo a jagged mountain with some seriously ominous buildup and ambience, all culminating in an incredible, brutal boss fight with awesome lore implications, to which he adds yet more excitement(and a bit of hilarity) to an already epic battle with his scenery chewing…
I swear even dying to bayle as much as I did wasn’t too rage inducing for me, just because every time I died, even at the peak of my frustration, all I could think/say was, “CUUUUURSE! YOOOOU! BAAAAAAYLE!!!”
the one little detail is when he uses the Through and Through ash of war you can hear him grunt and reel in when he draws his shot

hahaha yeah I totally forgot to reallocate and was like oh whoops 🤣 there's also the phase transition where I realized Bayle was targeting Igon and I just decided to watch lol
Igon literally cuts off his own finger so that you can summon his soul that he's astral projecting to the summit of the mountain
100% canon that's his middle finger.
@@lector-dogmatixsicarii1537 That would be so in character. Damn Fromsoft should have put that lowkey in the item description.
Khorne and Doomguy look upon this guy and smile, for Igon joins them as another "literally too angry to die" character
CUUUUUUUUUUUURSSSSE YOOOOOUUUUUUUUUU BAAAAAAAAAAAAAYLLLLLLLLLLLLLE
So I gues Igon is joining the illustrious club of Sunbro and Onion Bro.
Now he’s drake bro 😊
And Laurentius as Fire Bro. 🔥
Where did FromSoft find these voice actors ???
I heard theatre actors is what miyazaki goes for. I dunno if true
@@hiduck8247 that would be pretty cool if true
You’ve been doing theater for a while and then you get chosen for an amazing game
@hiduck8247 all are amazing
@@hiduck8247 they go for european actor for souls games specially bcs it's fits the tone of the Game, this actors do theatre, have works in tv and movies and other types of shows, they have a lot of experience in acting, thats why their performance of voice acting in media are really good, in the case of Igon(Richard Lintern) he has a lot of experience in the areas i said that explains how he gave that great voice and he even give Igon a crack in his voice with his last line, btw for what we know Miyazaki is with the voice actors to help the voice direction along with the person in command of directing the voice acting
I think its same actor as godfrey
Need the VA, Richard Lintern, to read Ahab's
"To the last, I grapple with thee; From Hell's heart, I stab at thee; For hate's sake, I spit my last breath at thee!"
The only way to end bayle is by Igon's HAIL OF HARPOONS!!!
(spoiler warning). The fact that Igon only succumbs to the injuries inflicted by Bayle after Bayle is slain really shows how much hatred he had for Bayle. Not even being crippled stopped Igon from being summoned into Bayle's arena!
Does this guy not reminding anyone of the narrator of the game intro?
oh yeaaah
Believe that was Ansbach.
oof when u went to cut the tail off but no damage even triggered 😬thats some old dark souls muscle memory kicking in
I miss that mechanic a lot hahaha, and I am a Monster Hunter player after all. There's so many dragons and beasts in this game, the mechanic would be super rewarding!
@@julpples if only man id love to get a sick weapon from cutting off bayles tail
I think Bayle and other bosses gets I-frames when they catch someone with a grab attack. Bayle grabbed Igon at that moment. I also wish they bring back cuttable tails from dragons
A hunter's tail cuting tendencies are hard to break out of
Thank you Richard charles lintern for some bomb dialouge
“Your fears made flesh”
damn, what a voice acting… special emotion in that line right there, can feel the words coming down my spine 🙌🏻
Bayle and Igon are some of my favourite parts of the DLC, so, so good
Some days it’s hard to find motivation, and then I remember the tale of Igon and Bayle
Thank you, Igon, The Lands Between’s very own Captain Ahab
Igon is such a chad. Loved his va
"WITH A HAIL OF HARPOONS!
WITH EVERY LAST DROP OF MY BEING!"
Goddamn this is such an unbelievably hard fucking line.
He reminds me of Siegwards questline except Igon has more hatred.
Love that guy
Bayle, you shall haunt me no longer!
Thank you so much for compiling and sharing this. Richard Lintern gives the best performance I've heard since Gyobu Masataka Oniwa in Sekiro. And he just keeps going on, his voice never faltering.
It would’ve been crazy to hear this in the trailer when Bayle shows up
Richard Lintern sir you COOKED 🔥🔥🔥
igon and sir ansbach are true friends
I love how his voice cracks at the end,as if he knows his life will end soon and can finally rest at last
No matter how much FromSoftware paid the voice actor, it wasn't enough. Him and Shabriri, holy shit. Beasts.
It's funny to think he probably just tripped over some rocks which broke his legs and still blamed Bayle.
Buddy wanted the smoke with Bayle, so i HAD to summon him
That Curse You Bayle intro...man, I've never been more motivated to kill a dragon with an NPC driven by pure vengeance.
If Elden Ring was a TV show, Igon and Bayle's fight is probably one of its highest rated season finales
Legitimately some of the greatest voice acting I have ever heard, throughout all media, not just video games.
HARPOONS!
We need isolated audio of this man's speech, Igon was spitting a fire there not even Bayle could one up.
Keep in mind Igon had his arms and legs torn/crippled but still made it to the peak
Incredible voice acting. Richard Lintern, I applaud you.
THE EXQUISITE PAIN
Call me Ishmael, Tarnished.
What a great voice actor.
Agreed.
