If the option to pet Blaidd was actually an in-game feature, maybe a little secret through Ranni’s quest, I would not complain. I mean look at him! He’s a good boy!
Not even fluffy. ANYTHING! We have been blessed with the gift of petting and the animals know it. Sharks love being petted, even eels love being petted, look up videos of that it's super adorable seeing these predators and dangerous animals being petted and acting cute. Additionally, one species of shark appearently gets jealous if a different shark approaches their favourite diver.
Oh, Ranni, so that's the name of Blaidd's so called "friend". I DO hope we get to brutally and violently embed and impale her with weapons in the sequel.
That’s cute af. Blaidd is such a badass character. I was so happy to see that he was a friend throughout Ranni’s questline (till the very end sadly…) His VA was cool and he had a nice mix of intimidating looks and yet a very charming personality to him. I love him.
@Manuel Blaidd had a magical geas placed upon him by the order before he was assigned to watch over Ranni. He was ordered to kill Ranni if she disobeyed the order but he refused. By also disobeying, the geas would eventually drive him mad similar to a hollow in Dark Souls, this was why Ranni's other servant locked him up in that gaol for Ranni's safety. But despite the geas eventually frying Blaidd's brain, he never turned his sword against Ranni. Unfortunately though, he does become hostile at the end resulting in the player having to kill him.
@Manuel the last possible time you can see him is at the bottom of ranni's tower which is when he attacks you so as long as you do everything else and never visit there you'll never have to kill him though you can watch from afar if you enjoy seeing him alive
Like nearly any canine, even if partly man, will melt from the affection of rubs and scritches, Blaidd, you may not feel like you deserve it, but, you are a good wolf, the best of wolfs, a good boy, the best of boys
I feel like blaidd was remembering back to his child hood or puppy hood. Whatever you want to call it, a very tough but friendly character if you get close enough.
Blaidd: Minding his own business. Tarnished: "Hey, Blaidd, have you ever been scratched before?" Blaidd: "If you mean by a bloodhound knight, then yes." Tarnished: "Not in that way, but in... Hm... It's hard to explain, may I show you?" Blaidd: "Fine... But I don't understand wh-" Tarnished begins giving Blaidd light scratches on his cheek, then behind his ear, "Oh, that feels nice... Right there..." Tarnished lowers hand Blaidd: "What did you stop f-" Tarnished proceeds to pat his head lightly Tarnished: "That's what scratches are." Blaidd: "Hmph, I will admit it was nice, but don't expect me to ask for more... Could you do it one more time?" Tarnished: "I thought you said-" Blaidd: "I know what I said and I changed my mind."
At first, he looks annoyed that someone is trying to pet him. Then, because he has all those wolfly nerve receptors in his head, he enjoys it. Then at the very end, he is annoyed again because he hates the fact that his body enjoys it.🥰🥰🥰
My playthrough during Ranni's questline was because I wanted a happy ending, but (because of my personal interpretation, I didn't understand her ending at first) evolved into my character just wanting to ditch the Lands Between & explore the stars. But somewhere along the lines, it also became my quest to see if I can pet Blaidd at some point, or give him a hug. Turns out I needed a hug as I neared the end of the quest. I decided to find every single Black Knife assassin I could. Every single Golden Order worshipper. They needed to pay for what they did to my besty. If the DLC will allow me, I am going to hunt down the Greater Will. Butchering it so badly, it'll make Kos look like she passed away peacefully.
I see the Tarnished has picked up Ranni´s "sit/stand on a pile of books to look taller" technique as there is no way said Tarnished could reach Blaidd considering hes 2x taller than you
I can imagine Ranni petting Blaidd when they were little kids without a care in the world, and even after everything that has happened before and after the shattering, he would kneel down and let her pet him, allowing them both to remenance about better Days
Not sure why there are cuts and lighting changes in the video, but with how long it took to render I don't want to fix it!
Please do an animation with Ranni, the best waifu
Makes sense that it would take long to render. My PC likes to remind me how render intensive Elden Ring is every time I play
This shit came out looking pristine!
This right here? This is precious. I needed this today.
Please,Can you upload this clip without the song?🥺
The only reason you can't do this in-game is because you're too short to reach his head.
Welp, time to find a stepladder.
You have to stand on top of torrent
too high up... therefore Time for jumping
Try ladder
And then wolf ahead
ILL GET A FUCKING STOOL!
GIMME A DAMN SECOND!
What makes this better is that after you're done, he snaps out of it and assumes a serious expression again like this never happened.
putting this video on loop
"You will never to speak of this to anyone ever!" - Blaidd
Dogstincts end a short moment after dog moment ends
“I was…I-I was just indulging you. It’s n-not like I ‘enjoyed’ the sensation! B-baka.”
Which makes it a perfect loop! Love to see it.
Blaidd: "Don’t say I’m not a man of my word, here’s your prize."
Tarnished: "No, this is my prize." *Grabs a ladder*
Blaidd: …
And his DI-

No matter how big or intimidating a character is, if the character is a canine or a feline, people will want to pet it

Or reptilian and oddly terrifying. People are fucking weird.
@@ryanwalsh5019 no.

All canine entities have the right to be scritch-scratched. No matter how badass
Like Blade Wolf from MGR
@@pavloydus Pet the robo dog.
I am inclined to agree
i mean, i doubt he wants you to treat him like a pet, maybe ask him before you start to touch him
For the night of the black knives they just had some one give maliketh belly rubs while they stole the rune of death.
You left out the part where you need to find a stepladder so you can reach him for pets.
In the artist's twitter post he actually shared a picture of MC using a stool to reach Blaidd, that was adorable!
step-ladder im stuck
Or you could ask Ranni for a few of the books she uses on her chair. Since she seams so tall I bet she can lend a few.
@@Sh4dy_L1ch rannis shorter then the main character I’m pretty sure, maybe a slight bit taller
That's the entire first few seconds where there's no hand on screen, he's setting up the stool
He looks like he’s given up after Tarnished asked a million times. Cute.

The single most wholesome piece of Elden Ring content ever created.

Imagine if you had two choices at the end of his questline, either finish it normally or.. convince him to let you pet him. GOTY for the next 10 years
Well, considering the end of his questline is rather tragic. It would have been nice to have a less lethal solution...

I love animations like these, that make the characters seem alive.
unless you count his halo assassinations, that blue spartan pretty much died, but in the most awesome way possible
@@SomeGuyWithABlueMask I don’t include those, those are a different type of animation to me.
@@SomeGuyWithABlueMask what? I may be stupid for asking this but what are these Halo Assassinations? Are you talking about Halo or about Blaidd?
@@SomeGuyWithABlueMask don't worry, I just remembered the previous animations of this particular RUclipsr
That ending's so perfect, 0:45 he takes a second to think, then he's like, "hummm... yeah I enjoyed that"
Awwww this is so well done! I wanna hug him so much. Imagine how warm and fluffy he is 🥰
I don't know anything about Elden Ring and not much about Blaidd but I just know he'd give the best hugs
I agree about fluffy, but i dunno about warm tho. He needs thick clothing himself.
The way he leans into the chin scritches is great. Even my cat does that. :)
My cat also does that, it's adorable.
The purring or growling sounds takes it all. Nicely done
Like nearly any canine, even if partly man, will melt from the affection of rubs and scritches, Blaidd, you may not feel like you deserve it, but, you are a good wolf, the best of wolfs, a good boy, the best of boys
... I can literally feel all his built up stress fly away in that moment....
Now just imagine what Ranni can do with four hands
Why do you think he’s so devoted
Are you talking about petting or something mischievous 😳

Ok but imagine giving him a good brush too! His fur would be magnificent
Poor thing really deserves it. He's been through so much. Reminds me of a shaky battered and abandoned dog. This was truly heartwarming.
The Tarnished found a stepladder, I see.
Thank you for sharing the best of boys.
I feel like blaidd was remembering back to his child hood or puppy hood. Whatever you want to call it, a very tough but friendly character if you get close enough.
It doesn't matter your age, gender or species, everybody needs some love
his tail is waggin
I have no proof but also no doubts
The community: Goodest Boi.
Blaidd: 🥰
Also Blaidd: Never speak of this again.
I like to think that Blaidd wears a cloak to hide how his tail wags every time he sees the Tarnished.
I like to imagine the tarnished propping a stepladder next to Blaidd without explanation just to pet him
Every warrior has a soft side
He looks tired and sad, and well deserving of some affection
I adore how his expression softens hesitantly at first, and then he accepts the fact he enjoys pats.
Honestly bought the game because of this video. Not even kidding.
Noice
Same
I'm about ready to as well lmao
Bro, same. Blaidd and Rya were what finally sold me, and I’ve never cared in the slightest about FromSoft games.
Blaidd: Minding his own business.
Tarnished: "Hey, Blaidd, have you ever been scratched before?"
Blaidd: "If you mean by a bloodhound knight, then yes."
Tarnished: "Not in that way, but in... Hm... It's hard to explain, may I show you?"
Blaidd: "Fine... But I don't understand wh-" Tarnished begins giving Blaidd light scratches on his cheek, then behind his ear, "Oh, that feels nice... Right there..."
Tarnished lowers hand
Blaidd: "What did you stop f-" Tarnished proceeds to pat his head lightly
Tarnished: "That's what scratches are."
Blaidd: "Hmph, I will admit it was nice, but don't expect me to ask for more... Could you do it one more time?"
Tarnished: "I thought you said-"
Blaidd: "I know what I said and I changed my mind."
"BLAIDD DEMANDS MOAR!!"
When i read the "May i show you?"
I just smile i don't know what was that about
Tarnished introducing him to belly rubs and fetch:
Blaidd: ranni ur cool but the tarnished has awarded me the title of “good boy”
i have my duty to protect Ms Ranni but tarnsihed show me more affection then her so ill stay with the tarnsihed
@@MeTheLuckySnakeplot twist: the tarnished ends up marrying Blaidd and ruling with him instead of Ranni
Everytime I die in Elden Ring I'm going to come back to this video
I imagine Ranni definitely did this more than once to calm him down
and she has extra hands on her doll to deliver double the scritches at the same time
Petting Blaidd >>>>>>>> Fia hugging you
this is literally the reason blaidd does everything for ranni, for the 4 armed pets.
Pov: you finished his questline and met him again in NG+
This is a very wholesome moment right here
And I gotta love the expression and animation very well done 👍
Now make a sequel, “You can pet Maliketh.”
if you could actually do this ingame and he leaned his head to pet him, it would had received game of the year
Blaidd perished maidenless. He deserved happier endings
I'll be his maiden uwu
He deserves a happy ending alright 👌
I wanted to save him
I'll happily be bachelor…
what's the male counterpart of a maiden
Awwwwwwww!😍😍😍😍👍
Blaidd clearly liked that, even how tough he tries to look, he's a puppy from within.
What a good boy
Awww, he's so cute being petted! I love blaidd!
oh my god blaidd making dog noises as he's getting pet. what a sweetheart.
It’s legit uncanny how smooth and well done this animation is.
All doggos deserve love
That's adorable!
At first, he looks annoyed that someone is trying to pet him. Then, because he has all those wolfly nerve receptors in his head, he enjoys it. Then at the very end, he is annoyed again because he hates the fact that his body enjoys it.🥰🥰🥰
the ending, remembering to keep his composure like a true warrior would, a well trained warrior, he is.
I just love that the player would have to be on like a chair or something in order to reach his head and that makes it so much better lol
0:45 Blaidd be like "What just happened? Why you stop?"
they need to add this asap
AGH! THIS IS ADORABLE...! The facial expressions are amazing! Fantastic work on this!! 😄
You can tell he needed that more than he wants to admit.
Blaidd is the best boy - he deserves so many pets for being such a loyal doggo
Man the facial expressions and movements are so well done, this is awesome.
Thank you for this.
Now all we need is a mod that lets us do this.
