@@Kamawan0 I understand the sentiment, but I think it's fair not to count the person who's been working on it for 6 months before its public release, and tuned/balanced the fight to his own play. I've also been in contact with him, and he didn't disapprove of the titling at all. :)
This is so sick. Hats off to the the modder! The sub-phases add such a cool touch. This just feels more in tune with the lore to me. Really brings Melania to life as a true formidable opponent. Now that must have felt truly rewarding to complete.
looks easy, maybe if you did an SL1, no heals, no hits, no buffs, 150% speed, no armor, club only fight using a dancepad and a banana as inputs it would be a bit more impressive. jokes aside it was a wonderful dance
Haha I think it’s a mod for the players that have gotten to the point where base Malenia is easy for them. She was already hard, but it’s been two years. Not a small number of people out there who can comfortably hitless solo her whenever they want. This is aimed at them.
@@vadandrumist1670 Let me solo her perfected the normal Malenia, but it took him a huge amount of attempts. He is amazing, hats off to him, but if you were to throw him into this callenge it would probably take him weeks to beat it. He didn't just spawn into the room and clapped those malenia cheeks from the get go either
I love adding in golden order fundamentalist stuff, being the commander of Miquella’s armies, you’d think she’d pick up on some of that stuff for an advantage
@@HeevaEgo a lot of the cut moves were unusable mind you, so that's why they were taken out, but this mod has reworked them so they now function as they would have
Why do so many people hate this? Yes I can see malenia is very clearly 100x harder and has impossibly difficult mechanics but come-on it looks cool and clearly whoever made it put a lot of effort into it, I wouldn’t try this mod but I sure all 10 people it was made for will love it it’s well made and gives me the option to not kill her
Right? It’s a mod, not part of the game itself, and even then the original Malenia is entirely optional. Mods like this are made to serve as a challenge, and if people can’t handle it, then they clearly shouldn’t worry about it. Plus compared to some other boss mods, this one is very well made
Because most Elden ring players can’t beat normal malenia without a crutch like cheese or summons, so they get offended this mad lad done something much harder
Gotta say, her first phase looks like a genuine improvement. She's no longer passive as hell and how smoothly her animations blend is kinda satisfying. Of course, it then promptly devolves into AnyRadiance style nonsense, but still it has some very neat ideas with storytelling during the fight. Well done!
People in base game elden ring: "elden ring has infinite stamina bosses that never stop attacking you, for a counter window opportunity for the player when you are in close range" This mod: did someone say infinite stamina for bosses? And also harder to find counter windows for bosses?
"avoid the rot" There are more rot sources in this fight now than there are cells in the human body, I commend you for that display of excellent skill good man, me however will likely hear "I am Melania, blade of miquella" for the rest of my days
I really like the idea of a rot pool forming and her having a rot aura that slowly builds up your meter. It makes a lot sense for her to have that, even though it would make her fight even more stressful. And being able to use the needle on her is such a cool idea as well.
The first phase looks awesome but the second phase just seems like a complete chaos. It's not particularly fun to watch and I can't imagine it being fun to learn and fight. Still tho the new moves look very impresive and I admire author's creativity
I love the permanent aeonias. Really feels like a fight on the scale of Radahn. Seeing her fight with the helmet off was very refreshing. I think some of the animations were too fast and felt "unnatural" during phase 2 but overall it's so great to see this boss get so much love from the community. The only thing I cant stand in the fight is her wings. It's just too much visual clutter when I'm supposed to be watching her sword and animations and then suddenly my whole screens taken up by her wings and particle effects.
@@oliverdavis4642 okay but that literally just isn’t true then lmao, there is factually a portion of the player base that didn’t get there, which is validated by the completion rates of other achievements that would have to have been gotten before facing her. stats are hard buddy i get it lmao
it took me about 5 hours to beat original melania with no summons so i can only imagine the godly amount time you put into this fight learning her ridiculous moveset, with that being said YOUR CRAZY but also hella talented, good shit
I remember the sense of awe at seeing first hand how Radahn held back the stars. I realized the true measure of a demigod that day. This display of Malenia finally gives me that same feeling again.
this is so freakin cool i love the (unironically because it looks cool) waterfowl spam and the permanent aeonias, they really develop the atmosphere of this hidden away goddess.
Jesus, that is insane. Meaning your gameplay and the mod itself. She was already my favourite boss fight in all fromsoft games. Could you imagine the communitys outrage if this was in the vanilla game lol. Considering how many are already crying about her now.
@@DrakyHRT the God of Rot is another outside god like the Greater Will, and after aeonia blooms for the third time (pfase transition), Melania becomes incarnation of it.
I thought I was good at normal Malenia but this...I don't think I could beat this. If I had to try I'd use a ton of levels on vigor and use damage and rot resistance talismans and hope for the best. This was fantastic. I love this mod and thank you for showcasing it. Saving her at the end is awesome as well. I bet fighting normal Malenia for you now is like fighting her in slow motion lol
I like her being a lot more aggro and the Holy Malenia phase, honestly her being even more aggro in pre-bloom seems more fitting to me. The visual clutter and undodgeable status buildup is not welcome though.
1:17 i mean malenia would be mad about the helmet because it was made by his brother with all his love and empathy to try to free her from the scarlet rot so its understandable
God dam, the when I saw this mod in a showcase I thought it was absolutely impossible without cheating/modding yourself. You sir, are an absolute legend.
DAMN now THAT is proper Malenia, true to the lore. Would love to play this mode even knowing i wont be able to defeat her. Just amazing from the character design POV
There is one, its called Berserk Radahn. Shits crazy. He has a 3rd phase where he just starts calling down stars on your ass. Unalloyed Malenia is probably still the harder fight, but Berserk Radahn is a fucking cinematic masterpiece
Hitless with voice commentary: th-cam.com/video/Szt2WSASOCY/w-d-xo.html

Can’t really say world’s first when the mod creator said they have already beaten it hitless.

With this power she could maybe even defeat soldier of Godrick

Her phase 1 has a phase 2 and her phase 2 has a phase 2.
that mod is incredibly clean. I'd never guess those weren't moves just in the game. Very smooth.
Your strength is extraordinary, for real!
Also, now this finally feels like lore-accurate Malenia. Can't imagine your feelings when you did it!
Thank you so much for choosing my Alloy creation for your video, and also for the mention ☺️ Incredible fight too! Extremely impressive! 💖
Haha, all I did was copy, least I can do is give credit. So thank you instead :)
looks easy, maybe if you did an SL1, no heals, no hits, no buffs, 150% speed, no armor, club only fight using a dancepad and a banana as inputs it would be a bit more impressive. jokes aside it was a wonderful dance
Can't do all that, but I did do hitless in newest video ^^
This is so amazing, I love the helmet break phase with the Cleanrot moves and the true horror phase. So cool.
For this to happen someone actually had to look at Malenia and say "nah, this is not hard enough"
Haha I think it’s a mod for the players that have gotten to the point where base Malenia is easy for them. She was already hard, but it’s been two years. Not a small number of people out there who can comfortably hitless solo her whenever they want. This is aimed at them.

Well done!
The fight was perfect bruh smh
Tbf, the reason why her first phase is passive was because she literally couldn't see anything, and was tracking you based on movement
NGL, looks cool to watch, but this fight looks like a fucking nightmare.
imagine being the hardest boss in the entire game MODDED and you cant beat some guy with some extra free time and a functional spacebar.
4:11 “Melania now unlocks more deadly moves”
Oh does she now?

Didn't expect Sakura Dance and Lone Shadow kick from Sekiro to make an appearance, as well as Mergo's Wet Nurse's Nightmare Phase from Bloodborne.
This looks like so much fun but so difficult, congrats on beating her.
DO NOT TAKE NOTES MIYAZAKI
😂😂😂😂
Lore-wise I imagine this is exactly how the bosses were intended. 😯

why does this look simultaneously super painful but also extremely fun

Malenia got dance lessons from dancer of the boreal valley and clone lessons from pontiff sullivahn.

I agree, the wings are a huge problem for visibility during Malenia's phase 2. It can completely block your view of fast wind-up attacks sometimes.
This definitely feels like fighting the vessel of an outer god
When you put it that way, I want to see a totally cursed Mohg mod of similar magnitude
Imagine if this is what the base game version was. 99.999% of players would quit, lmao
not everyone has the time to waste doing this nonsense lmao
