@@ysnp100 I mean, I get why they haven't included this trailer in the main game. It's always a delicate act deciding how much to tell the player, and there is a lot of stuff in this trailer. So I get why they might've thought "perhaps it's best not to include this in the main game". Still, they could've included it as an Extra or something.
@@thalesn Except, the game literally describes in detail several times the events that were shown in this trailer so it doesn't really make sense, there's probably some reason they ended up not including it. At least I hope there is one other than them just not feeling like it.
It really does go to show that Japanese made games can have great dubbing, if they cast the right people for the job. Fromsoftware is a case and point of this.
@@Garl_Vinland while there is a japanese cast, the japanese is actually the dub in DS3, Bloodborne's case as it was recorded after the initial release. The only time where Japanese is the intended original recording in these souls games is with Sekiro.
I didn't know that this existed until now. In my pursuit to not spoil anything about this game before playing it I ended up missing these wonderful pieces of media. Watching it now brings tons of nostalgia, so much so I think I'll jump into the game again. You really created something special here Miyazaki and From Soft. Love all of your IP's since Demon Souls on the PS3. You're a large inspiration and this fantastic world that you created together with BG3 this year brings me a lot of hope to the future of my biggest hobby. Great job!
Elden ring is one of those games where I could go into it having never watched he'd a trailer, reading about it, or anything... and still be over the topped hyped for it because at this point I have complete faith that FromSoft can't release a bad game
@@MrMetalhorse it’s not the same game it’s a design philosophy and what makes these games so iconic because there is a certain style to them. Also they expand and improve on every sequel they release Ps: I know it’s a joke but just wanted to say that
I just hope there's no relentless covenant grinding like some of their other games have had or they've atleast toned it down a bit! Needing 30 from every covenant in DS3 was an absolute ballache!
@@Serprizebuttsecks thing is.... I think they will make a covenant for each demigod's area. ☹ I honestly dont want neither civenant trophies nor all rings from ds3 trophies. But as far as I know, there are no rings in the game so fine by me.
For those who didn’t watch the video here’s a summary of what was said: It all began with the forging of the Great Rings. Three were given to the Elves; immortal, wisest and fairest of all beings. Seven, to the Dwarf Lords, great miners and craftsmen of the mountain halls. And nine, nine rings were gifted to the race of Men, who above all else desire power. For within these rings was bound the strength and the will to govern over each race. But they were all of them deceived, for another ring was made. In the land of Mordor, in the fires of Mount Doom, the Dark Lord Sauron forged in secret, a master ring, to control all others. And into this ring he poured all his cruelty, his malice and his will to dominate all life. One ring to rule them all. (Jokes aside I’m really excited for Elden Ring)
From Software surely went far in all those years…from an obscure Japanese studio to masters of their craft dropping something to get the whole industry in awe!
@@whitegenome22 With the current backlog that I have on games to play, books to read and series to watch, I'm afraid I have not enough time as it is 😄 But I admit, the games do look really cool
I doubt you could even imagine it...That which commanded the stars... Giving life it's fullest brilliance... Thee Elden Ring... OOHHH Elden Ring... Shattered by someone or something... Don't tell me you don't see it... Look up to the sky...It burns...
"There will be no victor" fits very well. Ranni says that, but it would fit as well if Malenia says that, because she didn't wanted to loose, and maybe, even win.
Malenia has red hair just like her father Radagon. And Miquella has blonde hair like Marika. I just noticed that. (Miquella isn’t in the trailer but you can see him being stolen by Mohg in the intro to the game)
It’s amazing seeing that everyone now is super excited for this game when a few weeks back, when the gameplay trailer came out, they were just saying that this looked like Dark Souls 3.5.
@@1meen1 Yet it has so far sold 16 million copies, only 6 months after it's release. The entire dark souls series has only sold 27 million copies the entire time it's been around.
Miyazaki is a super fan of Berserk as shown there is always at minimum one reference in all his games. Honestly I wish the current rights holder to Berserk would let Miyazaki develop a game because he do justice and respect to it.

I can only say one thing: *I will be prepared to suffer again to death in the year 2022* 💀
For the amount of games coming or the gameplay 😂
I am a huge sucker for video game design and my mouth is drooling for Elden Ring
Miyazaki takes his inspiration from Berserk and many other dark fantasy mediums so they should also be looked at
2:53 "Miquella awaits thee, O promised consort."

After the DLC, I see the clash between Malenia and Radahn with decidedly different eyes
Yes, now it makes even less sense.
To you
@@dearcastiel4667 it make MORE sense. Bro dont understand the dlc.
Respect to General Radahn 🙏 What a legend 💪
My great sword is buffed with this trailer
As usual the intro looks awesome starting from dark souls 3,sekiro,and elden ring
Starting from demons souls, Ds1 and ds2 had some incredible intro scenes too
Dark souls is still undefeated nr1
Who is here watching this after finishing the game
This really hits different now
I have a feeling that this game will be defined by its epic bosses & boss-fights ...
sadly
I figure this is the opening prologue video for the game.
As such I’m really going to look forward to the close caption.
This is probably the intro cutscene too before ur game starts. It feels so far away but so close at the same time
*sigh...*
I can already tell, it’s going to be a masterpiece.
And ... it is
Game of the year. No competition...

Lol truth
it is an ad tho
I feel like this was supposed to be the intro cinematic to Elden Ring but was instead changed into a slideshow
Super hyped, can't wait to play this. Been replaying Bloodborne, Dark Souls 3 and DS2 lately.
The anticipation is making me watching this almost everyday. Only 3 weeks...
Fairly sure this is the opening cinematic for Elden Ring
What a year 2022 is gonna be on PlayStation
This should be the opening cut scene
That's, how you do it. Debut at E3, showcase at the VGA's and release with minimal wait time.
