POV: you dodge Radagon for 30 minutes straight so you could listen to his theme
i used to do that to with the kingdome hearts 2 final mix with terra.
If you fight normally, the song is rooting for you
But if you've chosen the frenzied flame ending, the song is rooting for Radagon
Age of the Stars, too.
Marika is probably in favor of the Age of Stars, and it is one of the best defenses against the Age of Dark.
Or the seabed curse
@@GeneralmackaFrom what I heard in one of the Elden Ring lore videos, all the "becoming the Elden Lord" endings are basically what the Greater Will and Marika are expecting you to take (yes, that includes Dung Eater's ending as well), while the Age of the Stars and Frenzied Flame endings aren't. To put it simply, those two are not on the script that the GW and Marika have originally laid out.
what
always love it when the final boss theme is a more epic version of the main theme
This is the main theme lol
@@MiStarGalaxyno it isn’t, it’s a variation
"What are your intentions with our daughter...?"
The rotussy calls...
Which one 💀
@@dietcoke6492 yes
Shouldn't be a hard question if your intentions are pure, just saying y'all 🤷♂️
THE MOOOOON
It's him!
JOHN ELDEN RING!
You mean Elden John?
John of the golden order
@@weedsama9100order of the golden john!!!!
John of the John order
John of the John John
Soul of cinder was a love letter
Gael’s theme was a send off
Radagon’s theme is a promise
Gherman was misery or probably relief
Gwyns was a depressing realization
Malenias blade was a mistreatment
Isshin was a final duel.
Aldis's theme was a lament
Man, if this is, essentially, Radagon's rotten corpse, imagine how powerful he and Marika were at the height of their power.
Can't bro that's like Mike Tyson and Muhammad Ali in their primes lol
Well, just give him the effect of every demigods great Rune to simulate what he was like before he was shattered lol
You don't have to imagine it, just stuff all the Great Runes into their chest and they'll be up like nothing happened.
between Radagon and radahn, its clear the legendary willpower runs in the family
That’s like beating a puppy to death for them
This song really makes you FEEL like Elden Ring O, Elden Ring
O, you don't have the right, O, you don't have the right
O, you don't have the right, O, you don't have the right
chillz bruda
look into the sky, It burns
This song just like Demon souls if you ever played it.
OOOHHHHHHHH, ELDEN RING
1:14 FUCKING CHILLS
The angelic female scream at the end of the first chorus really encapsulates Queen Marika's anguish and the hardcore violins and drums that follow fit in perfectly with Lord Radagon's relentless attempts at protecting the final shard of the Elden Ring no matter the cost.
after playing Elden Ring for more than 100 hours reading the items' descriptions and watching lore videos or reading lore explanations, I knew in my bone that Lord Radagon is loyal to _the Greater Will_ and that's why we fight him instead of Queen Marika. Radagon's Great Rune even sealed the thorns on the entry to the Erdtree, it means he is the one which prevents every Tarnished to enter the Erdtree and brandish the Elden Ring into a new Order which pure and separated from the influence of _the Greater Will_ Itself. Radagon is just a poor loyal servant of his God which abandoned his true love(Rennala) and betray his half-soul(Marika) (:
truly a fitting final boss
@@Caliban743 it wasmt sacrificed, the tarnished kills radagon, then the elden ring turns into the elden beast and turns radagon corpse into a sword
In fact Radagon is already dead. Check out the videos that show him up close. He's got his eyes closed all the time, he's just a shell, we fight the Elden Beast all the time. And Elden Beast chose his avatar for being loyal. Marika/Radagon likely died while imprisoned on the Erdtree. Already in the trailer when the Elden Ring was destroyed, Marika/Radagon's body is already "breaking", destroying itself for inside, as if it were a vase (which is what they are). This happens because it's Elden Beast coming out of the "vase" to solve the betrayal that Marika did.
He lost his heart.
So final boss is basically abusive husbando? Gotcha.
People have been wondering, why does the track play for radagon?
The truth is, my fellow tarnished, that radagon is dead, the elden beast simply revived his corpse…
…It is us who the theme plays for
is like FFXIV endwalker the final boss 2nd phase song is the main character song as a boss theme
@@Lugzan0 another one is on mgr when fighting Armstrong
Same argument could be used for the elden beast. The elden beast is the embodiment of order, quite literally the elden ring itself, and therefore would have no theme signifying good or evil. That's the tranquility in the beginning, then the part where it goes into those beautiful violins as our theme, reminiscing on all the trials we've overcome up to this point.
Damn you guys believed your own hype too much 😂
It plays for the Elden Ring, which you only happen to be in its presence during the final battle in the game, in THAT form.
That's why the theme changes when you fight the Elden Beast, it's not the Elden Ring in its runic form housed in an Empyrean. It takes another form 😊
Now the reason why Farum Azula is crumbling being that we traveled in time and beat him when he was holding the whole thing together...
That's a more interesting theory 😄
We got a pretty sweet theme then.
This isn't like Dark Souls. You're not delaying the inevitable this time.
This isn't like Bloodborne or Sekiro. A melancholic dual to put some old man out of his misery while a city/clan withers behind you.
This world can be saved. There is still a future. And you gotta kick this guy's brittle ass to save it.
Brittle? Dude literally pounds you into the ground with Marika's Hammer like he's pounding a piece of raw meat.
@@distantraveller9876
-Pound me like Marika, Radagon
-Aight Tarnished *vigor checks*
Radagon's theme is so good they made a game out of it.
The theme we hear every time we boot up the game culminates in our journey's climax. From a quiet nothing, the Tarnished rise to conquer the insurmountable, and it all leads to one epic clash after another as the Tarnished rise from nothing to the very topic of legend. Each defeat stings, some more than others. And in our anger, frustration, despair, or combination of all, some of us put the controller down and leave our ventures in the Lands Between behind for a time... We return to the nothing we came from. Fated, as it would seem, to die in obscurity.
But not unlike the call of Marika's Grace, the promise of a grand adventure returns us to the Title Menu, and our Tarnished to their toil. And with perseverance, our labors in the Lands Between begin to yield fruit as one by one our obstacles fall before us. Godrick eats his words of you. Malenia concedes to your strength. Godfrey acknowledges you as his equal. With every obstacle overcome, our journey is told through the heralding orchestration of this epic melody that we've heard since the very beginning of our journey.
Until at last, the only obstacle that remains is Radagon of the Golden Order.
For many, Radagon is the most perilous challenge the Tarnished face, and that is most definitely reflected in this theme. He is our final challenge, and the greatest threat to the success of our quest, and in this final battle against him, the future of the entire world rests upon our humble shoulders. Truly, a theme worthy of such a warrior, right?
Now what if we looked at this encounter from Radagon's perspective? There has never been anything more important to this man than the Golden Order; everything he has ever done has been as a result of his dedication to it. He has fought for it, loved for it, betrayed for it, conceived for it. And despite all he had given and sacrificed for this devotion, he was forced to watch as everyone else around him betray every single one of his ideals and spat on the order he cared more for than all else. Miquella and Ranni conspired to uproot the order in favor of ushering in their own eras. Rykard sought to consume everything and gave himself unto blasphemy. Radahn found himself beckoned the glorious temptations of war. Even Marika, his wife - his other half, in every sense of the word - diverged from the Golden Order and the Greater Will when she shattered the Elden Ring.
This man has watched as all he has cared about has been threatened by the very people he thought he could trust the most to help in upholding it. And now, after his city has fallen, after his precious Erdtree has been burned to cinders, after the world has crumbled around him, all he has left to cling to is the sanctity of his Golden Order. A sanctity that we Tarnished now threaten. Radagon recognizes that if he falls to us, then it is likely that so too shall the world as he has known it, the world he has given everything to keep safe. The future rests upon his humble shoulders as he faces his own greatest challenge yet - us.
From the very first time we booted up the game, we've been bolstered by this theme, making our way through the insurmountable towards this climactic conclusion. This theme may play during Radagon's battle, but the theme does not belong to him. It belongs to us, the Tarnished. It always has.
Facts we suffered bleed struggle and witness death an every corner defeat but we have risen above everything else
Couldn’t have put it better myself, friend. I doubt anyone could have.
If your GF texts you something this long, your over!
This makes so much since. I mean, this is also the song that plays over the opening sequence and calls our tarnished to action.
My only regret is to not have any NPCs helping in this fight, no matter what you did in the game. Not because the fight is too difficult, but because it would be cool to have some allies in terms of story.
“Arise ye Tarnished
Ye dead who yet live
Across the fog
Beyond the sea
In our land
The Lands Between
Claim the Elden Ring
and become Elden Lord!”
In one game From Software managed to replicate the same feeling DS1 vets felt when they heard Soul of Cinder's theme... Absolutely incredible.
Not really
You and I know this
No, they really didn't.
Don't get me wrong this was still really damn cool but nothing compares to Soul of Cinder since it was actually build up over several games.
I wouldnt say the SAME feeling but another kind of awesome FIRST time feeling specifically to Elden Ring last boss.
@Gman Yes because you can't disagree with anyone on the internet without being butthurt.
10/10 Logic.
Don't care about these other guys but I'm with you there. When he's holding the hammer and the theme kicks in? Chills dude. Then when he starts getting more aggressive and the rising violin plays? Sick nasty.
Shame about Elden Beast though.
I have a friend, he passed away on May 7, 2023 due to stress and this was the type of music he liked to listen to, he was gentle and kind to everyone but until his hardest time Then there was only him alone. He left, leaving behind many regrets for everyone who remained. I wish him on the other side to always be the same happy and enthusiastic young man as before.
Thank you hydra, thank you to those who made such good music, I love this type of music and miss you so much hydra
You must've been a really good friend to him no doubt, I'm sorry for your loss. Just don't forget how to smile and take care
I'm terribly sorry for your loss
your friend is a complete gigachad
One day, he will return to his home. Bathed in rays of gold.
Long live hydra of the golden order!
Fitting that the first part of the final boss soundtrack is the epic, bombastic version of the opening menu theme, because we've finally come full circle here: After all those trials and tribulations, you finally stand before the Elden Ring and the Second Elden Lord is the last hurdle to overcome...or what's left of him, at least.
@Just a guy who needs POWER For real...I'm fighting him/the Elden Beast right now and have already lost count of the number of times he's caught me with his every-so-slightly delayed hammer strikes and slams...
@Goro Majima He was pretty weak, but I enjoyed fighting him
@@CTPELOK_U3_KPOKYCA How Overleveled were you at the time?
If you follow Ranni's ending Radagon sure is the definition of "you'll get the hand of my daughter over my dead body"
(edit : damn thanks for all the likes i wasn't expecting it to get to 1k!)
( the comments below are as golden as radagon's will to smite us all lmao))
“You’ll get the hand of my dolly over my dead body”
"You will get the hand of our dolly over our dead body" - Radagon and Marika
Or, as would be more like in this setting, "You don't have the right, O, you don't have the right. In short, You don't have the right, O, you don't have the right."
It’s like, “You’re my daughter’s eternal consort? Prove me to your worthy of being my daughter’s consort, Tarnished.” 😂😂😂
@@i1lus10n i like to imagine Radagon thinking to himself you did good kid
The moment I heard this playing when I fought Radagon, I was not surprised. Because it was the most fitting theme for the final boss. Elden Ring did not disappoint me at all! Best game of the year, hands down!
I swear I almost teared up. After hearing it every time I loaded the game, when it started playing for a boss I knew it was about to be over. If it was a sad song instead of a hype song, like Gehrman's or Gwyn's, I think I would have cried lmao
I love Elden Ring but nah, this game is wacky and hella unfinished. Open World is Average, Horse Mechanics are bad and need fixes. Combat is Gold, Skills are Gold. Bosses are overall Average and only 7 good bosses in the entire Game. Plot is Average. Music is Peak.
Overall, its a decent Game but nothing worth hyping. And i am someone who started with Demon Souls.
@@SolaireOfToast I personally disagree but I can see your points(Mainly the open world part), I think it's a great game that could get some improvements in the future.
@@SolaireOfToast bro is clearly biased but hey its ok to not like amazing games and like objectively worse games like the previous souls games (other than sekiro).
@@raafeyalikhan4400 Thats just the opinion of a Fanboy. I would only call DS 3 better than Elden Ring. DS 1 is Average af and has really bad gameplay and mechanics. DS 2 literarly trash but somehow i enjoyed it.
DS3 has many flaws, but overall good combat and really good bosses.
But none of the Souls Games is above 6/10 and i even own a Solaire Figure and Dark Souls Wallet. So you can believe me when i say, i am a DS Fanboy. But being a Fanboy and hyping something without reason, doesnt need to go hand in hand.
Dont forget this man can parry BULLETS if u use the gun mod
Edit: also had a quote i saw on another video: "he isnt beating you with a hammer, he's building you into a better player"
Edit edit: if u didnt know, this isnt radagon's theme. Radagon lost himself and became a slave to the golden order long ago. This is YOUR theme
With his bare hand no less
True
Im sorry what 👁️👄👁️
FromSoftware really thinks on everything huh lol
You really think he is just a " man" , bro is a literal God 😂
I don’t think the second edit makes sense. Sure, Radagon could’ve lost himself and became an empty shell, just a vassal for the Greater Will, but, that wouldnt make this theme not his. Especially when you hear the shattering of the Elden Ring and a woman screaming (whom is most likely representative of Marika). Why would that be in our theme? We weren’t there to witness that, our character may or may not know about it depending on what quests we choose, so, it wouldn’t make sense for our theme. It’d make perfect sense for Radagon’s though, as he was who had tried to repair it and may or may not have been there to witness. He is only trapped inside the Erdtree because of Marika shattering the Elden Ring, so, whether he is a conscious person still or just a husk, it’d make perfect sense for Marika shattering the Ring to be in his theme, not the tarnished. Also, invading tarnished themes and other battle themes against tarnished mostly do not have vocals, they’re insignificant tarnished after all. So I don’t think it’d make much sense for our theme to be the only tarnished theme with fairly prominent vocals. But the theme for the hero and god of the land would definitely have vocals in his theme to express his might, like most other major boss themes
You might say that it does make sense for our theme to have vocals because we are the tarnished who has surpassed all the demigods, therefore it could make sense for the Final Battle to be our theme as we are not like the other tarnished and are notably stronger and mightier, but, in Godfrey’s second theme where he is revealed as Hoarah Loux; despite being the leader of the tarnished and (asides from you) is undoubtedly the strongest tarnished to ever have lived, he does not have prominent vocals in his theme. Despite him killing the Fire Giants, facing the Dragon Lord alone and living, and leading the long march in the inhospitable Badlands, he does not have prominent vocals in his theme, he only has one section where there are prominent tribal-like chanting, the rest of the vocals in that theme are very quiet and in the background despite his exuberant might. So he, the strongest Tarnished, barely has any vocals, why would the player, someone hardly stronger than Hoarah Loux, have far more prominent vocals in their theme? Prominent vocals are mainly reserved for lords and demigods, as shown when Godfrey displayed himself as the First Elden Lord: he had extremely prominent vocals in his theme. Thus, it is clear that the Final Battle theme is not our theme, tarnished do not have vocals in their themes, and if they do, it’s usually very insignificant to the theme, so this the Final Battle theme makes sense most for Radagon, a god, as it has very prominent vocals.
Upping the difficulty of radagon and turning elden beast into a spectacle boss a la divine dragon would have made the ending so much better.
Hard agree
Make elden beast a mounted fight
Yeah it felt like they wanted the Elden beast to come in similar to how Moon Presence does when you beat Gehrmen, like "Holy shit, this is a literaly god beyond my understanding." But it feels lack luster because after the spectacle that is Radagon it feels too peaceful. I enjoyed it nonetheless but I do think it would have been better if it resurrected him and they fought together while they used Radagon as a vessal by funnelling all their power into him in one last ditch effort.
This is actually a very good solution to that ending's sole issue of it being shared by the Elden Lord and the Elden beast.
Couldn't care less about fighting the Elden beast it's just pretty.
Radagon though, he is pretty but hells yeah the entire game has been building up to this fight...
I didn't massacre his entire family except for one I married and one stuck in an egg to not fight Radagon at the end.
Shave off like, 3-5% of Elden Beast's HP and give it to Radagon, and it should be good. Imo that's really the main issue with it, the "climactic final battle" part of it feels like it doesn't last _quite_ long enough and the "beautiful, melancholic reflection on your journey" feels like it overstays it welcome just a bit with how much longer on average it takes to actually deal the amount of damage to it you'd otherwise deal.
(Obv. reworking Elden Stars and modifying the fight to work better with Torrent would be nice but, in terms of really easy tweaks that keep the core experience as is that's what I'd do anyways.)
Radagon's become one of my favorite characters recently. There's just so much to interpret with his lore, and it's really fun to look into. I hope he gets some more lore in the DLC; maybe we could even talk to him like Vendrick from DS2.
I hope we get a cutscene of prime Radagon maybe speaking to Miquella (because miquella will be involved with the dlc) cuz we never heard Radagon’s voice
1:15 radagon feels so badass when that part starts, specially when he begins teleporting and throwing lightning at you...
"You don't have the right, O you don't have the right. In short, you don't have the right, O you don't have the right."
All the more you, don't have the right
A wise Tarnished once said,
“Try finger, but whole”
I live my life by those words on my way to the Elden Throne
Im still with the " amazing chest ahead " thing from dark souls 1
"ahh women" was also funny in ds3
Funny/Stupid story: In my first, blind run i got really surprised by Radagon being the final boss in this ruined state - that triggered me so badly i had to remove all my armor and face him with only my sword and pants....
WTF
@@hawk5394 I mean....he's completely destroyed, and only wearing pants!
@@TenebrisGladius extremely honourable, i would do the same if my character didn't look like a distended frogman
Even if u take off ur pants he still holds u down and hammers you like he did marika
When I finally got to the end and fought Radagon, hearing this, you knew this was it, the final battle and how epic it was gonna get. You can really feel the energy from this song, the battle with Radagon was legendary. Your fighting for everything at that point. Eldin Ring is no doubt best game of the year. So dam good!
hahah cmoon that was pretty shitty and boring
1:15 this has to be my favorite part of the theme by far and adds to the tension because when this is playing you are most likely fighting his second-ish phase
Chadagon of the Golden Chad
its very rare that orchestral arrangements have viola as the leading voice in the ensemble, since they're often not as popular as violin or cello. this piece though. not only are they the setting tempo for the orchestra throughout, but the dominating voice at 1:14 and throughout if you listen close enough. the sound of viola isn't as noticeable at first, but as a long time violist it immediately caught my ear and my heart off guard. it's so wonderful and badass :,)
it's also such a clever use of the instrument since viola is a mix between both a cello and violin, and one of the only instruments to use alto clef -- to me, it's very reminiscent of the identities of radagon and marika being an amalgamate yet distinct from one another
I play viola too and the first time I heard the viola part at 1:14 during the boss fight it instantly caught my attention. It's my favorite part of the entire piece.
@@danielt.9586me too :,)
There must be a lore reason! Worth exploring beyond what you have initially stated.
That moment when you hear the theme for the first time, you barely say " After all these struggles , we are finaly here"
This ost has the most gravity to it, the cutscene synching to this made my mouth drop the first time I heard it. That’s something very few other moments in gaming have managed to accomplish
When he looked back at us raising the hammer bro it was perfect. I wish we got to see more of him, Elden beast turning him into a sword was so stupid but tragic as well
Yeah i got quite pissed off through the whole boss Rush
Stuff like Maliketh or Second Phase Godfrey really were quite a mess, but then i saw the cutscene and the music starting while he stared back and had a massive whiplash; alone reminded me why i truly liked this game.
I take my morning shower with this.
Radagon is so badass that his theme is practically the Elden Ring main theme! Hey that Antonius Tertius guy leaked the official lyrics (gibberish as he explains there) of Radagon and Elden Beast and even revealed the singer who recorded the Elden Beast song, in case you want to sing along ;)
You know I think they had "placeholders" when they composed the themes, but I do think that actual lyrics that phonetically sound like the gibberish were eventually added.
The song of lament is the only one that has no music to accompany it, it had to be just the lyrics...
But for everyone's themes, it's the music being composed then the lyrics added.
It just would be wiser to do it this way.
All are in Latin btw..
@@samf.s.7731 Only song of lament is truly in Latin. We're not talking about Bloodborne. The Tertius guy already confirmed Bloodborne is the only Souls game that got many songs in Latin and even then with a strange,mostly grammatically incorrect Latin. The playlists are out there for all to see: Elden Ring lyrics (OFFICIAL) and Bloodborne official lyrics.
The last three fights of the game are my favorite, the movesets of Godfrey, Radagon, and Elden Beast are majestic and give you the feeling of a true fair fight. Getting beaten by them was never discouraging, and beating them was a very satisfying feat. Mastering their movesets turn them into muscle-memory dances almost. One of the best game bosses I’ve ever faces.
tbf most of the games bosses are a true fair fight, if you bother to learn their mechanics.
Until the majestic words appear, while your heart is still racing with adrenaline: *ENEMY FELLED*
(or its variations)
@@flamingmanureExcept Fire Giant.
Fuck Fire Giant.
I agree completely on the first two, but Elden Beast is a terrible fight and a massive letdown.
@@PowerfulSkeleton yeah elden beast sucks. The camera in the fight is the worst. You can't even see what it's doing when you're close to it. It also keeps swimming away or flying in the air prolonging the fight. And he keeps spamming tracking lasers.
The way radagon hold up his crumbling hammer and give you that look is amazing the fight was fun sure he whooped me but I actually enjoyed it.
This song just screams at you to yell like Horah Loux, fight like Malenia, endure like Radahan, think like Mikella, give everything like Rykard, graft your way to victory like Goodrick, take the throne like Morgott, try for the impossible like Morgh, die like Godwyng...
...and claim victory as just a Tarnish.
Elden Ring O Elden Ring!!!
Add Fight for the Ranni's future and that became the most motivational quotes for thiw fight
i dont want to die like godwyn
This game is so perfect. No Microtransactions or Season Pass. A complete game and you can collect all things in the game. It reminds me of the good old gaming days when you just bought a game and had fun.
GAME OF THE YEAR 2022.
From Software deserves this title with Elden Ring.
Other gaming companies could learn from Elden Ring. A game will sell copies when done the right way.
Truly a masterpiece
It Won
@@ryenagade Yes, that is just GREAT!!!
There are a lot of games released today with no mtx and are a complete games no just Elden Ring. God of war Ragnarok my Goty is one example of that.
@@MrDaveJustice Amazing game as well
This ost, the menu theme...I think everyone got shivers everywhere! Elden Ring is such a masterpiece.
I love the shattering in the 2nd phase transition
I listened to this for 5 hours straight. It’s just so good
This game literally cured my depression. Thank you, from software. I mean it.
a music that will remember you as a legend
They really hit hard with Radagon's theme
The whole theme of the song reinforces the fact that this will be the most challenging fight yet.
I really wish they had left Elden Beast as an optional boss for another ending, cause it really drags the fight down- it could have been very easily done where they made Radagon just have more health and a few more moves, but instead we got an idiot fish that makes us run after it the whole fight lol
I will forever be convinced we were supposed to have torrent in that fight with how much running we have to do, we got him for fire giant who Doesnt run away nearly as much :/
Elden beast is great, if we had torrent
I might be the only one but I liked the elden beast design probably not a good fight but the design was different.
@@lightninggaming016 I Love everything about elden beast, except for the gameplay xDD theme+design+arena are great
See I always saw it the other way around. Where I saw radagon as really annoying and unnecessary where as elden beast felt as the conclusion to the game as the vassal of the greater will giving its all to stop the new age.
Kept fighting to protect the Order even as a mere broken, empty shell, that's what you call loyalty. God I love this dude, he may was just a tool for the Greater Will in the end but damn you gotta respect this man's dedication (+ he has the best ost and most epic entrance)
the ost that played in the background of Miyazaki's mind as he made his way to the podium to receive the game of the year award
NOt in his mind, this was the actual music that played when Elden Ring was announced as GOTY.
the lead up to 4:57 gives me goosebumps every time
I think modern musical genius finds its expression now in video game / movie themes moreso than traditional routes
Movies are oversatured with Trailerhead trash. Once a medium of great interest, it's mostly a cesspool of the same regurgitated mess :/ but video games.... man oh man does Elden Ring deliver unlike any other.
All of Radagon's pain and suffering is put to the test in the face of his final foe, us. And then, when he falls at our feet in battle, he gets turned into a sword to be wielded by one of the very things he fought to protect. He left his family for the Golden Order because he valued its ideals more than his own life. He was a valiant warrior that deserves to be honored as such.
Only that Marika is Radagon, they are the same person. So all Radagon has done, was Marika's own scheme
@Salen Vendetta Radagon and Marika might share the same body but they definitely have different minds. Marika shattered the elden ring while Radagon tried to repair it.
@@alfalldoot6715 That's amazing actually
He will be honored in the mass slaughtering of mohgwyn's palace for runes
He was the sword of the Golden Order metaphorically from the get go, it's just that it happens literally at the end.
Fighting him in his prime must have been a death sentence.
No, because invulnerability during rolls does the trick.
one of the best boss fights ever IMO. Radagon was so epic
Never have I felt a more “oh fuck” moment when this song kicked up and radagon took my soul geyser and swiped it away like it was nothing
Imagine the Game Awards Orchestra ending with this, our inevitable GOTY. Chills.
Miyazaki: It's just the final boss theme, just make it simple and goofy.
Bill Clinton:
AAAAUGGHHH 😩😩 ARISE NOW YE TARNISHED
YE DEAD!!!
@@daoudmh1 WHO YET LIVE!
May the Golden Order shine through you.
Arise now , ye tarnished
This song makes wanna believe in your self to keep pushing a win that damn boss fight to win
undoubtedly the best boss in the game
Absolutely
I remember going into this boss fight for the first time and hearing this music, feeling so damn badass and epic to finally be at the end, only to die less than a minute into the fight.
A friend and I beat Radagon on one of our attempts right as the song ended. Truly epic stuff.
_"The fallen leaves. . . Tell a story"_
I just wish we had two phases against Radagon himself rather than Elden Beast just coming out of nowhere and ruining the fun fight prior by running away every three hits. This track is just so good and feels like it's about to go even harder but never does..
Radagon: Is this the partner you chose for my Ranni, Marika? I WILL NOT APPROVE THIS
Dies*
Grandpa Elden Beast: Fine I'll stop you myself
The soundtrack of dads belt being unbuckled after you drop grandma's ashes
the soundtrack after I tell my drunk abusive father that I don’t wanna get him a beer
I like how the art here shows one of the Elden Beast's eyes peeking through the crack where Radagon's eye should be. A subtle hint that we're not fighting him. We're fighting the Elden Beast's puppet, and by extension, the Greater Will itself. The man Radagon was is long gone, and now all that's left is a shell being puppeted by the very force he devoted his entire existence to.
Kinda reminds me of Dark Souls' Gwyn. A man who devoted his entire existence to a divine force, even sacrificing his own being for it, only to basically end up as a zombie by the time we meet him. Just like Gwyn, cutting Radagon down here could be considered an act of mercy.
This is what the bosses hear when they encounter the tarnished.
"Hes no beating you with a hammer. He's smithing you into a better warrior."-inmoderate
My only wish was to have Radagon as the final fight of the game, but without the Elden Beast as phase 2.
Just a final duel between Radagon who protects his ideals and a tarnished who fights for the throne.
The hammer beat as we fight like in the trailer is a MARVELOUS addition. Radagon is beating your ass, and at the same time, he's doing it so he can mend the shattered Elden Ring.
One of the most epic ost in souls saga 💥⚔️
gael ost is the best in saga souls
Fitting that THE Elden Ring theme is played during the final battle for the Elden Throne.
At 1:12 you can hear the elden ring being shattered. At 1:24 you can hear radagon attempting to mend it.
Id let radagon beat me so i can listen to this as he pounds me into the ground 😩😩😩😩
👀 he can pound me into the ground all he likes 👀
🤨
🤨📸
as a wise man once said: "he's not beating you with a hammer, just smithing you into a better player"
@@beng4ll967 this is great
It's been a whole year and when i really think about it. Are we the enemy? Are we the Evil ones? wasn't Radagon just assuming the role of being vessel for the Elden Ring only for us to decimate all of that bad ending or not?
I mean the greater will isn’t really good
Radagon test to see if I'm worthy of his daughters
Probably my favorite boss theme in the entire series. It's so damn magnificent. The Isaac Newton of Elden Ring.
The final battle, of one of the greatest games to *grace* our lives in 2022. Just the way he looks at us when entering the Erdtree, the best entrance to a final boss I've ever experienced!

Our Story!!!
POV: you “that don’t mean shit” when your mom said “I gave birth to you” and begin a argument
After reading the description, i can confirm that you did a really good job on mentioning the artist!
That art work looks amazing
This fight is literally the best. It force you to put everything you have on the table, to fight with no hesitation. And the moment we won, we actually felt like we have accomplished something so great.
And then there is the Elden Beast boss, who force you to run 90% of the time because this boss love to swim. If anything, I would say that this is the polar opposite of Sekiro final boss fight.
Holy shit that thumbnail is amazing
Listening this while studying for an examn, ty a lot for making this. I just did a summary of three to four classes in about half of the video and I just need to write it to learn it. Hope you are doing well, ty again
my buddy after i wake up from a nightmare: Elden Beast? Phase 2? Buddy, there's only Radagon past this fog wall. Cmon, summon me so we can finish the best fight in the game?
Who out there listening to this on loop while getting ready to go out on a Friday Night 🗡️
name of the art? pretty please
That cover art is fantastic, kankan did an amazing job
The epitome of masterpiece
The Tarnished and Gwyn, The Lord Of Cinder that resided within him, looked around in awe as they found themselves in an arena nearing the end of their journey.
The fog encircled the arena as they looked around curiously before they looked up near the center of the battlefield.
Looking up, they saw the amalgamated body of Queen Marika and King Radagon, crucified upon a Great Rune as the mist seemed to shift.
The Tarnished and Gwyn felt a strange sensation around the scene, the air itself still as the grave, but energized, as if the air was waiting for the imminent battle between them.
The blonde, feminine figure was still, shattered and darkened in parts, as if the body was made of porcelain filled with a living, inky shadow.
_Suddenly, the figure moved their hands and wrists, and with some effort, the body broke the imprisoning Great Rune, shattering it like glass as The Tarnished and Gwyn looked on in surprised shock as the figure fell upon the center of the floor._
The Tarnished was at a loss for words as the figure fell, but he and Gwyn did notice that the figure had landed near Marika's hammer, which made them uneasy.
_Suddenly, the figure, trying to get up, grasped the hammer as they got on their knees._
*_Then, the figure's hair slowly turned from blonde to a very familiar red, a hair color they saw on Radhan and Melania, and became more masculine as it made one final effort, and pulled the hammer out of the ground, a blinding light enveloping the arena._*
When their vision returned, The Tarnished saw the figure holding the hammer up triumphantly, their back turned to them before they turned their head towards them, the dark pit now glowing with _The Elden Ring_ inside them, *_The face much more masculine and the body now very much like that of a warrior._*
The Tarnished drew his sword and got into a defensive stance as he realized who was indeed standing before them now.
*_Radagon. Of The Golden Order._*
The Lord Of Cinder that dwelt within him looked in awe at Radagon, his shattered body glowing from within the ink-like depths.
Radagon, having gained full control of the amalgam body, turned towards The Tarnished, his one good eye hidden behind some hair as he readied his wife's hammer in a deceptively relaxed, but ready, battle pose.
The Tarnished, his cape flowing behind him, readied his weapons from his beloved Ranni as he tried to keep his composure.
Gwyn smiled as he saw the two warriors, neither speaking, just reading what they would do next.
The Lord Of Cinder had seen his host struggle against great hardships and trials, fought against opponents both great and vile, to get to this point.
To see the lad actually facing his equal in none other than Radagon Of The Golden Order, and to have Radagon treat him as a fellow warrior with equal respect wordlessly made him realize that _this_ was the moment he had hoped to see.
_The world, he realized, would change in a clash against Gods in spirit._
*_The fate of the world... Would be decided by the will those who fought for what they believed was right._*
Can't wait to hear a part of this theme in elden ring 3 for the final boss' 2nd phase theme
This final boss is my favorite in the series
That picture tho...
The fallen leaves tell a story of how a tarnished became Elden lord!
Cool 50$ soundtrack came with a game in bonus
I love it sooo much! I will listen to this everyday while working in the garden so I go wild in the garden
wait a min whaattttt imagine ur neighbors heard that instense music and just saw some peaceful dude spraying their plants wtf...
I took 5 whole hours to beat him and I swear for 2 todays this ost isn't stop from spamming in my head , its just epic
People complaining about the Elden Beast fight are not truly born to experience the spectacle that was tackling a literal fucking God. "I bet Torrent was meant for the fight" bruh. I'm glad he wasn't. To experience this fight, boots on the ground fighting the first and second elden lord and then fighting practically the outer gods envoy was an amazing thing and done greatly. I hate the git gud people in souls games but the elden beasts fight does not diminish this one and immortalized it as one of the best endings to a souls Bourne game.
Right? It's not a damn dragon fight
man they should put elden beast first then radagon like his fate in the order is so strong that he break from his chain to protect it, seem more personal. Instead we got a puppet radagon but can't complain much.
