Elden Ring (PC, PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X/S/One) is filled with secrets, easter eggs, and references worth seeing. Here are some of our favorites. Subscribe for more: th-cam.com/users/gameranxTV?su... #EldenRing
This is my first souls game, and there was definitely a learning curve. For the first 10 hours I hated it but only kept playing because I spent money on it. Now I consider it to be one of the greatest games ever made
Dude same I bought it bc I been seeing a bunch of videos n stuff everywhere like a month ago. Never played dark souls was never really interested in it , thought the game was too hard but once I learned how to play I love it . Once I beat this gonna play the other dark soul games. Just got elden ring less than a month ago already got godrick renalla and radahn down bunch of the dragons regular and draconic sentinel etc. Strength build on a confessor bc I didn't know what to pick n I heard broadsword is a good weapon so I went with it. Level 70 with most points into vigor strength and some dex n arc to wield reduvia 🤣
@@mrsisterfister6647 Haha I am gonna be there myself. Not including AFK time, I am at like 70 hours and just beat Renalla or whatever her name is, taking my time and loving every hour of it.
I had a feeling cause of the similarities to Skyrim but your right fuck did I get pulled in deep and I am doing 100% in each zone so I’m just finishing lournia and I literally spent 2 days farming the clean rot set and halo scythe from cailed rot lake like this game will survive the test of time exactly like Skyrim but a way more polished and better game as a whole it’s a blingin 10/10 and everyone should give it a try cause it’s the gift that just keeps giving
ranni's questline is without a doubt the one that gives you the most guidance and directions. Her quest was one of the few i didnt screw up and actually managed to complete on my first playthrough completly blind.
Don't you have to progress Rogier's questline to join Ranni? The Rogier stuff I absolutely would have missed without help. Had no idea that area beneath Stormveil existed.
@@charlesajones77 rogier shows up at roundtable hold. I managed to find him in my first playthrough but didn't progress his quest to completion. Still allowed me to get the ranni ending though
@@charlesajones77 you definetly dont have to. i think there is several introductions to rannis questline. i completely missed rogier. only found his armor and stuff in his spot at roundtable hold at some point. but i just started the questline by going to rannis tower.
There's also a room in stormveil castle that he will close and lock you in with a knight. It's almost pitch black inside. But you can hear his fucking iconic laugh. Idk if he was hiding around nearby I looked closely too. This was before I found his cave in the lake so I didn't know he was in the game. My friends were busting up laughing when they heard me yelling and swearing at patches. I'll never forget that laugh
@@Nekogami04 Yep, it was the lanky gatekeeper guy, he also stole some of our runes when we died in the castle. I let him live though, he's not worth killing.
As someone who uses Greatswords and bigger weapons I started using a whip in my second hand just for quick longer ranged attacks. It's also super useful for checking every wall in every room super fast 😂
I could watch elden Ring videos from you guys everyday on top of all the other stuff you produce. You guys really are the best video game channel on all of youtube
@Brandon Smythe I didn't mean they're elden ring stuff specifically was the best just their channel as a whole is my favorite. There's definitely some amazing lore videos I have seen
I'm convinced Falcon intentionally pronounces characters names wrong. I was fine with "Ranny" and even "Bly-add" but "Ruh-Dericka"? C'mon. WHO pronounces the name Roderika like that?
They’re Welsh pronunciations. ALOT of the characters in Elden ring have welsh accents. In Welsh the letter ‘A’ is most commonly pronounced ‘Ah’ and the ‘DD’ is pronounced ‘TH’ and similarly the ‘LL’ in most situations is reminiscent of ‘SH’ but sounds more snake-like.
It amazes me how you guys manage to somehow pronounce almost every name wrong. Even the names that the characters say themselves in game. It's actually wild lol
I love how there's still references to From soft's roots. Like we all know about the Moonlight greatsword, but did you know the various Snake people originate in Kings Field as well? They're called Widda or Weavils in KF IV!
@@dirpyturtle69 I think what he means is Shadow Tower can be described as Kings Field with guns, in the same way as Bloodborne being described as Dark Souls with guns.
Regarding Malekith's armor, the beast clergyman sacrifices his One Eye and One hand once you give him the deathroots, its clearly a Berserk reference because that's exactly what Guts loses after the eclipse. One Eye and One Hand.
The Ash Lake reminds me of a very specific scene from Nausicaa. Where she's under the toxic jungle, and the ground is made of ash, the tree's are white and seem to go on forever, and there's a large clear lake. I can't help but think the Ash Lake is a reference to that one scene from Nausicaa
Roderika: "My name is Roderika" Falcon: I shall call you Raderikah. I was watching this going man... Falcon has done such a good job in this one without messing up a name or word that's stated obviously somewhere! And then it got to Roderika. A name stated and pronounced by at LEAST 3 different characters (Roderika herself, Hewg, and Nepheli Loux after giving her the Hawk King ashes). Wouldn't be a Falcon Video without something like this somewhere. :P
There were so many pieces of architecture that felt ripped straight out of a level in another souls game. I can’t think of any off the top of my head but I had so many moments of “! This is just like that other level from such and such” and it was such a nice nostalgia trip. I get little warm fuzzies every time a giant crab explodes up out of the ground
I definitely felt Dark Souls 2 lava fortress vibes in the Volcano Manor, Bloodborne vibes in Caelid, and the cathedral from Irithyl has almost a 1:1 remake in the snowy area! I’m sure there are so many more but these are just the ones I’ve recently noticed!
Sure! I feel like this is an homage to all the previous games of From Software. It's the culmination of the Souls saga, and I can't imagine how could they surpass this quality (i know, bloodborne 2 with an open world :P)
The view of trees/pillars in the distance I believe was inspired by Nausicaa. Also another side note, the skybox when fighting the Lich Dragon inside Fia's dream underground is the same as in the hunters dream in bloodbourne.
Radahn reminds me of Zodd in Berserk. Berserk is my favouritest manga/anime ever. Dark/gruesome world with only one ray of hope. Like the world just keeps getting worse and worse. Kentaro Miura dying broke my heart.
The Jar Cannon you get in Elden Ring is also very reminiscent of the one you get in Bloodbourne. The Jar Cannon fires greatbolts but you can get explosive Bolts.
man i friggin miss everything...never in my life have i used internet searches for guides on game so many times. this game creates a type of masochism that just draws me in like no other. love/hate relationship here
I still prefer the OG moonlight sword (technically called the Divine sword in the version I played). I mean it shoots a holy light beam down from the sky!
This one receives a blessing through a beam of moonlight falling from the sky and while it's buffed you can shoot magic slashes of moonlight to your enemy. And it does frost damage, which is extremely useful in this game.
My favorite little “attention to detail” nugget is in liturgical town. Use the sentry’s torch to identify the ghosts of the black knife assassins you killed in the evergaol. I only noticed this after I had defeated three of them, so it may be able to identify their locations prior to entering evergaol. Either way, that just really stood out to me as an easily missed and finely tuned microdetail.
There's actually a Capra Demon wannabe that appears throughout the game too! You can find him as a boss in western Liurnia and as a normal enemy in Volcano Manor
Every From Soft. game is like a breath of fresh air. And with Elden Ring... My god how good it is to have an open world game designed around exploration without handholding, no markers, no arrows or magic GPS. Not to mention that the game is brave enough to hide a TON of content insted of forcing you to see everything. From Software... f*cking legends
The giant hand enemies have an attack from super smash brothers. Just like the final boss hand they have the attack where they punch and then sweep while opening thier fist. Very recognizable if you've played smash :)
Don’t they also have a move where they scramble around rapidly and damage you if you get near? I’m pretty sure I remember Master Hand doing that exact same move!
I'd argue that it isn't a reference and more that there isn't a whole lot of original things you can do with an enemy's moveset when they're literally just a hand.
I love your content , always enjoy watching your videos. Elden Ring is my favourite fromsoftware game to date. Currently on my 4th playthrough and I absolutely love every part of this game ( maybe except for the birds , God I hate them birds ). My game of the year and the year has only begun.
I think you are putting up the best Elden Ring content and I never want you to stop, I even made a private playlist for the videos that contain spoilers so I can watch them later. Keep it up guys.
I knew he was gonna do it at that spot. My reaction was no way, not gonna fall for it! Then I just did it to make sure and just yelled I FUCKING KNEW IT 😂😂
That's an interesting ideia that would honor Miura's legacy, why not really make the actual berserker armor in game in a future DLC? Something with ashes of war that would make you more powerful with hiperarmor but raise your madness level the more damage you deal. It would be a nice anti-gank but not too overpowered at the same time.
Crestfallen isn’t an Easter egg, it means to be Sad and Disappointed, so when Hewg says the girl is crestfallen he doesn’t mean that she’s a warrior, basically means she’s depressed
this might be another one: On your way to the weeping peninsula you can find irina on your way who wants you to go the castle morne. Could be a reference to irina from dark souls 3 who (if you do the dark version of her quest) will have more dialogue if you have the morne's gauntlets equiped
Fun fact: there’s a cliff right above the south east of woodfolk ruins. When you stand near the edge, the entire area gets dark and foggy and you can barely see the erd tree. The most intriguing part about that is that you can hear mysterious sounds similar to underwater noises over there. Haven’t figured out what it is yet
I would just like to say that the ability to rebuild your character after defeating renalla was perfect for me as a new player. Up to that point I was just building my character around whatever weapon I found so it was all over the place. I wanted to start out as a caster/melee but ended up putting a lot into dex and strength just because those were the first good weapons I found. It was nice to be able to rebuild to what I wanted after I figured out how builds even worked.
This game is using the DS3 engine... I hate to be the one to pop the bubble, but that's cost saving, not homage. Just like all the reused assets throughout the game.
ever realize that all of the gods/demigods' names start with G M or R, the initials of George RR Martin. Godwyn, Godrick, Godfrey, Marika, Mogh, Morgott, Ranni, Rennalla, Radagon
Definitely has the most berk references than the previous games. Btw the greatsword isn't modeled off the dragonslayer, it's almost identical to Guts' main sword during the golden age arc. If you look at side by side comparisons you'll see the differences
@@SpikeTheWolf it didn't have a name he just uses very big sword. The dragonslayer is like 4 times the size of it though if you consider how much material went into making it
@@demonintellect9834 the design shape is what I'm talking about, I've been living and breathing berserk for almost 20 years I know what I'm on about. Go take a peep at some photos of the golden age sword and notice the design of the hilt, rivets, the tang in the blade and then do a comparison with the dragonslayer and you'll see the shape and tapers are different. The dragonslayer is almost a flat slab compared to the golden age sword (Guts actually uses around 7 or 8 different sword styles throughout the golden age but the most iconic is what this games greatsword is modeled after)
I’m glad that you noticed Maliketh’s armor looks like the Berserker armor. I saw some articles saying that Blaiids’s referenced it lol. One of my favorite sets in the game.
I saw patches by the cliffside and he tried to get me to walk to the ledge but I assumed he was talking about the message on the bridge next to the tower you get the pulley bow. Long story short I didn't get kicked off the ledge and now he's in volcano manor
you forgot the artorias reference being blidd and also the voice of some of the characters like alexonder beingthe same as sigwards and fia being the fire keeper in dark souls 3
The "Tree Sentinal" Miniboss is a perfect copy of Sekiros "Gyoubu Oniwa", the Moveset is sooo similar, can't be a coincidence!! :D OK the screaming part is missing :D
So these pillars in ashe lake remind me of the rifts from eureka 7 they are essentially portals to different dimensions which is why they show up in every demension when they are made
It annoys me so much how often these dudes cant pronounce the names of characters correctly. Like they say it in the game! How could you get it wrong??
Actually I would say the crestfallen warrior is that magician you encounter in the church righr after beating Godrick, he has a similar actitude and share the same voice actor
This guy BUTCHERED Miura's name. Imagine a channel with 7 mil subscribers can't even google how to pronounce one of the greatest Manga writer's names of all time.
In the room you fight the dragon kin soldier in nokstella the little skeleton guys coming out of the ground look almost exactly like the messangers from Bloodborne.
This is my first souls game, and there was definitely a learning curve. For the first 10 hours I hated it but only kept playing because I spent money on it. Now I consider it to be one of the greatest games ever made
more people need to be like you and persevere that are new to these games, its not hard to get used to, *just play the game*
Sameee
That’s how I felt about dark souls 3.
Was also my first one hated how I didn't know what to do at first , Got by using ranged magic, 70 hours in and its top 3 games of all time to me now
Dude same I bought it bc I been seeing a bunch of videos n stuff everywhere like a month ago. Never played dark souls was never really interested in it , thought the game was too hard but once I learned how to play I love it . Once I beat this gonna play the other dark soul games.

It's insane just how much there is to discover even 100 hours into the game. It's really quite phenomenal.
I have 105 hours in and there so much more stuff left to do
@@mrsisterfister6647 Haha I am gonna be there myself. Not including AFK time, I am at like 70 hours and just beat Renalla or whatever her name is, taking my time and loving every hour of it.
im 130 hours and still finding new things. hows this even possible
If you like this type of rpg you might like Elex and Elex 2.......?..... not even close to as good but similar in secret weapons and such.
@@taylorpeters2071 i just got my third or fourth Rune from bosses. I’m lvl 140 and still haven’t got to the top side of the map lol
I knew Elden Ring was gonna be great but I didn't realize just how much I'm gonna be into it.
FAAAAAACTS IM ADDICTED ITS ALREADY ONE OF MY FAVORITE GAMES EVER
I know, I havent thought about anything else. It's really bad. I got shit to do.
This has replaced call of duty for me.
Im into watching elden ring but not playing it i aint souls player

@@charlesajones77 blaidd and iji are the main introductions to rannis questline
exact reason I don't think the other endings will be canon, this one will be.
I thought Patches' Trapped Chest WAS his "Kick the Player" moment. Didn't know there was a literal, "Kick the Player" moment.

Blaidd’s chest armor has a frozen reference quoting “the cold bothered him anyway.”
I just saw this last night. I was both disappointed and impressed.
That pronunciation of “Miura” gave me whiplash lmao
Smowg lol and rag-a-don. Can always tell when the people voicing the video havent actually played it 😂

The red wolf of RAGANON??
You can get a Mask that looks exactly like a Phalanx. It’s called the “Silver Tear” Mask and give you +8 Arcane when equipped.
Good item to equip when farming up specific armor sets :)
OOooOoo where?
@@dylandamn1 beat the Mimic tear in the eternal city
I wonder why this wasn’t in the video…
Yes. You get it automatically following Ranni’s quest line. It’s after the Ansel River section.
I love how there's still references to From soft's roots. Like we all know about the Moonlight greatsword, but did you know the various Snake people originate in Kings Field as well? They're called Widda or Weavils in KF IV!
Yes and there is a game called Shadow Tower Abyss which is the Bloodborne of the Kings Field series.

I didn't even connect that. I honestly thought of Vecna from D&D.
Berserk is an incredible work of art. I have read it up to wherever it currently was multiple times. Truly an incredible creation.

YES I felt there was so many references to Miyasaki films in Elden Ring. Like the Worm Face and other stuff I can't recall rn
the way falcon pronounces the NPC's names makes me think he hasn't actually played the game....
That's because he didn't
Roderika: "My name is Roderika"
Falcon: I shall call you Raderikah.
I was watching this going man... Falcon has done such a good job in this one without messing up a name or word that's stated obviously somewhere! And then it got to Roderika. A name stated and pronounced by at LEAST 3 different characters (Roderika herself, Hewg, and Nepheli Loux after giving her the Hawk King ashes). Wouldn't be a Falcon Video without something like this somewhere. :P
Falcon: She's one of the most memorable NPCs in the game!
Also Falcon: *Doesn't say her name right even once*
Did it for Blaidd also. It's pronounced like "blithe" because it's the Welsh word meaning "wolf."

The ranni questline was so much fun. The underground areas are amongst my favorite so far
they literally gave u a waifu! Talk about fan service
From all the characters names you managed to butcher 90% of them...
Even the Berserk names he butchered
Also the mini boss in the albanuric village reminded me of the capra demon from DS 1!
Fun fact: Patches actually ALSO appears in fromsoftware’s mech game, metal wolf chaos. Even pre-demon souls!
You guys just slap so hard with every video loved you for years! Keep it up guys 🤟🏻
The red wolf is actually an unused enemy from dark souls 3, the asset was used for the watchdogs of faron covenant site
The only name he pronounced right was Patches lmaooo
You Butchered (Kentaro) Miura, now his ghost is gonna chase you
After 200 hours on my first play through I still look at this game as game of the year there’s always something new to find
I love your content , always enjoy watching your videos. Elden Ring is my favourite fromsoftware game to date. Currently on my 4th playthrough and I absolutely love every part of this game ( maybe except for the birds , God I hate them birds ). My game of the year and the year has only begun.
Miyazaki`s galaxy brain move was to reuse a bunch of assets from previous games and call them homages. And I love it.
Lowkey my first souls game and i loved every bit of it. Even the struggle dying part was still really fun
Keep making the Elden Ring videos! I will watch all of them !
The basilisks are slightly changed, the huge eyes are actually their eyes now, they no longer have a smaller set of eyes under them
No they are not. They still have the small eyes which is made apparent when they have the glowing orange eyes when they will drop 5x runes
9:50 i have noticed some ornstein like mobs in a very late areas.
The sword from Beserker looks more like Guts sword from the golden age, not the Dragon Slayer.
Facts🤝🏼
You guys need to do a part 2 for this!!
Blaidd also looks a lot like guts, only with a permanent wolf head instead of the wolf like helmet
Another Berserk reference: the prisoner starting class is a reference to Griffith before he joins the God Hand.
I’ll click every Elden Ring video you guys make. I’m on my 2nd play through and there is still so much to learn.
Berserker armor and you didn't mention Blaidd’s set?
Actually the moonlight greatsword is in sekiro. The dragon boss is the one weildimg it
most of things from this video are on point, even the bonuses. Love to see more

👌
@@gameranxTV so what build did you do?
Just about to start playing this game myself. Im a total newbie to these sorts of games even though I love the looks of them xD
You're in for alot of pain. Watch fighting cowboy walkthroughs to help you along the way.
You can just use summons and prep you build in mind to use Magic and Sword to have a good balanced build and experience both good combat.

That's an interesting ideia that would honor Miura's legacy, why not really make the actual berserker armor in game in a future DLC? Something with ashes of war that would make you more powerful with hiperarmor but raise your madness level the more damage you deal. It would be a nice anti-gank but not too overpowered at the same time.
@DoogManGuy like what?
@DoogManGuy when they get as obvious as they do, they are true references. The sword is almost one to one with guts golden age sword.
Crestfallen isn’t an Easter egg, it means to be Sad and Disappointed, so when Hewg says the girl is crestfallen he doesn’t mean that she’s a warrior, basically means she’s depressed
Yeah, that whole point was quite the stretch.
When he said she could no longer swing a sword, that's the reference to her being a warrior.
this might be another one: On your way to the weeping peninsula you can find irina on your way who wants you to go the castle morne. Could be a reference to irina from dark souls 3 who (if you do the dark version of her quest) will have more dialogue if you have the morne's gauntlets equiped
Fun fact: there’s a cliff right above the south east of woodfolk ruins. When you stand near the edge, the entire area gets dark and foggy and you can barely see the erd tree. The most intriguing part about that is that you can hear mysterious sounds similar to underwater noises over there. Haven’t figured out what it is yet
i really love your videos guys, keep up the good work :)
Will do, thanks
@0:24 kintaro muh eye rah 🤣
First souls game I've played is elden ring, 100+ hours in and around lvl 120.. But really enjoyed this video, gives me a little bit of bg info ✌🏽 💜
I would just like to say that the ability to rebuild your character after defeating renalla was perfect for me as a new player. Up to that point I was just building my character around whatever weapon I found so it was all over the place. I wanted to start out as a caster/melee but ended up putting a lot into dex and strength just because those were the first good weapons I found. It was nice to be able to rebuild to what I wanted after I figured out how builds even worked.
*Gets kicked off a ledge once more*
Damn it Patches!!!!!
🤣
In Demon’s souls the moonlight great sword was more a faith type weapon ( fun fact)
Seeing "Patches returned to their world" during the Rhadan fight made me laugh so much
Patches actually shows up PRE demon souls, originally called Patches the Good Luck in the game Armored Core - For Call, which is before demon souls
I’m ready for another 100+ hours!
You missed out on how the small gargoyle in the catacombs has the exact moveset as the thrall from dark souls 3.
This game is using the DS3 engine...
I hate to be the one to pop the bubble, but that's cost saving, not homage.
Just like all the reused assets throughout the game.
In addition to all the already mentioned similarities to Berserk, Prisoner class model resembles a lot Griffith after his imprisonment.
ever realize that all of the gods/demigods' names start with G M or R, the initials of George RR Martin. Godwyn, Godrick, Godfrey, Marika, Mogh, Morgott, Ranni, Rennalla, Radagon
The best single player games on this channel.
👊🤘
Definitely has the most berk references than the previous games. Btw the greatsword isn't modeled off the dragonslayer, it's almost identical to Guts' main sword during the golden age arc. If you look at side by side comparisons you'll see the differences
So pre dragonslayer? What was the name?
@@SpikeTheWolf it didn't have a name he just uses very big sword. The dragonslayer is like 4 times the size of it though if you consider how much material went into making it
Its actually almost identical to the dragonslayer. Look it up bud. His sword was a lot thinner in the band of hawk days.
@@demonintellect9834 the design shape is what I'm talking about, I've been living and breathing berserk for almost 20 years I know what I'm on about. Go take a peep at some photos of the golden age sword and notice the design of the hilt, rivets, the tang in the blade and then do a comparison with the dragonslayer and you'll see the shape and tapers are different. The dragonslayer is almost a flat slab compared to the golden age sword (Guts actually uses around 7 or 8 different sword styles throughout the golden age but the most iconic is what this games greatsword is modeled after)
@@cloudbloom looks more dragonslayer to me.
I’m glad that you noticed Maliketh’s armor looks like the Berserker armor. I saw some articles saying that Blaiids’s referenced it lol. One of my favorite sets in the game.
I am now on 100h playtime - And I just started with altus plateau. I experienced everything else so far - got every item etc. So much content
I saw patches by the cliffside and he tried to get me to walk to the ledge but I assumed he was talking about the message on the bridge next to the tower you get the pulley bow. Long story short I didn't get kicked off the ledge and now he's in volcano manor
If you can't match that, then dont cry about it, im talking about you Ubisoft
The grafted blade always reminded me of Kisame’s weapon Samehada
You forgot the prisoner mask and clothes, spitting image of post golden age Griffith.
Elden ring isn't a game for me but I am happy for everyone who love it and I'm here for falcon!
It's always painful hearing someone reading a script they didn't write. Like no one who writes their own script would ever say "my-yura".
The pillar tress also make an appearance in the final boss room as well, although these ones are more akin to the erdtree
you forgot the artorias reference being blidd and also the voice of some of the characters like alexonder beingthe same as sigwards and fia being the fire keeper in dark souls 3
Best game in a few years for sure
The "Tree Sentinal" Miniboss is a perfect copy of Sekiros "Gyoubu Oniwa", the Moveset is sooo similar, can't be a coincidence!! :D
OK the screaming part is missing :D
Regarding Martin's contribution: the Shardbearers names are all G,R, and M. meaning you can spell GRRM with the first 4 Shards.
So these pillars in ashe lake remind me of the rifts from eureka 7 they are essentially portals to different dimensions which is why they show up in every demension when they are made
YEESSSS MORE ELDEN RING!!!!!
It annoys me so much how often these dudes cant pronounce the names of characters correctly. Like they say it in the game! How could you get it wrong??
I love this video game so much. Feels good finally having a good game to play.
Actually I would say the crestfallen warrior is that magician you encounter in the church righr after beating Godrick, he has a similar actitude and share the same voice actor
This guy BUTCHERED Miura's name. Imagine a channel with 7 mil subscribers can't even google how to pronounce one of the greatest Manga writer's names of all time.
Yes, Elden Ring is really really REALLY good but can someone please help me figure out it's not the greatest game ever?
In the room you fight the dragon kin soldier in nokstella the little skeleton guys coming out of the ground look almost exactly like the messangers from Bloodborne.
Also, the snake enemies in volcano manor are similar to the ones in Sens fortress from DS1👍🏼
