04:20 Intro
05:28 Bossfight
08:22 Lady Ethereal's Acceptance
09:40 Redeeming the Sol Seal - เกม
Lady Ethereal: The Sol of healing and benevolence, was a goddess of dreams. In her years, she created virtual simulations and assisted Yi with the Eternal Cauldron in order to give citizens a peaceful slumber without fear nor worry. Tests were successful, at first, but unfortunately.......it became too successful. Those it was tested on wouldn't wake up from their dreams.....and instead suffer death upon a coma of nightmares. Even Xiaohe.
Of course, the simulation was never intended to harm anyone. Lady Ethereal never wanted to hurt them nor make them suffer. But knowing she was responsible, she would forever feel guilt for her mistake. She would torture herself, blame herself, trap herself in her own nightmare, for she felt she never deserved forgiveness. Years of trauma and despair laid upon the poor goddess. Insanity and sadness corrupted her mind, creating images of her dead test subjects, blaming her for killing them.
She deserves the mercy to rest and be free....but in order to, she must accept her sorrows and move on.
"The road to hell is paved with good intentions."
All she wanted to do was help others rest.
Wish there was a less painful way to save her.
And get a good beating, specialy afther just hiting so hard as a boss
@@jorgemigueltavares6041 It's really sad, honestly. She's actually my favorite boss alongside Ji. I wanna give her a hug!!!!
What "coma of nightmares" means?
@@parasemprealice5684They go into a deep coma filled with nightmares so harsh, they died.
Whoever designed this boss must have been a fan of Madoka Magica
absolutely
🤣
or a furry considering what her other form looks like.
Oh absolutely. This could very much work as it’s own labyrinth with some changes. Like…
Lady Ethereal, the witch of dreams and nightmares. Her nature is that of regret or atonement.
In life she wished to be able to be able to make a space where people could could dream for very long amounts of time. Kyubey granted her wish, but it worked too well. When they woke up they wanted to go back and sleep for eternity. So much so they believed that they were in a living nightmare when they woke up and would do anything to go back. Even off themselves. She and everyone else who knew hid this fact, but the regret ate away at her until her soul gem transformed when she went inside the machine she wished for.
bossfight ✅
Cute art style but secretly very very dark ✅
Theme of the boss ✅
Ominous background ✅
Thats definitely like other games with cute but more terrifying gameplay to add on
Yomawari and little goody two shoes comes to mind
This fight reminds me that these guys make stellar horror games... And that they are talented as hell to be able to mash genres so seamlessly in this manner. What a cracked team of devs!
This is the same team that did Detention? Gee, no wonder this sense of terror felt so familiar.
This fight was so fun. Such a great soundtrack and 3 stages made this one hell of a fight.
Not gonna lie, this game deserves an animated series.
This character is so deep and flawed. whoever created this concept and script is a freaking genius
Her boss fight is very similar to all the Mantis Lord boss variant.
Relentlessly attacking you while you swiftly attacking back during their attack.
Extremely fun boss with really good ost.
Right? I thought she felt like a mashup of Mantis Lords and Grimm. I love the idea of using clones that disappear on hit to incentivize aggression. Wish they pushed it further honestly, she could have been a great late game boss.
Yeah I found this boss very similar to Mantis lords , Radiance and a bit similar to the empress of light from terraria
It is really weird. I had no sympathy for the previous boss, Jiequan, but I have a lot more for her.
That’s cuz jiequan is a dick
I think he was designed to be a hate-sink. Someone deliberately designed to be hated. Another example of such would be Doktor Blutwurst from Fuga: Melodies of steel.
Same can be said for Eigong.
She's the reason why the Tian Huo virus exists, triggering the whole plot, and the reason why the Solarians exposed to her modified serum turned into feral mutants and went on an infectious rampage throughout Kunlun.
All because she wanted Ji's immortality.
Jiequan intentionally tortures and mutilates people and shows no internal conflict about it all, Lady Etherial seems to have had good intentions and shows genuine remorse and self hatred for the unintentional pain and death she caused so I don’t think theres anything wield about it. She’s meant to be a sympathetic character and he’s not.
@@cmanhanks1 Fuga mentioned :)
Currently in late game, I’ve had my fair share of fakeouts with this game figuring out who and where Heng is.
When I first saw one of the prison portraits that looked a lot like Heng (on the very far left), I thought, “Is this Heng?”
Then I saw Lady Ethereal, and was like “wait is this Heng? She grew up? Yi did sleep 500 years after all. She went insane?”
Understanding that she isn’t Heng after the flashback sequence at the Empyrean District made me feel like the kilogram of feathers and kilogram of steel Irish dude.
LMAO those 2 doesn't looks similar at all they even have different fur colour what are you on bro
@@boonpiao ?? 500 years makes a big difference, characters grown up could look vastly different from when they were younger. They have similar hair “tufts”-one is a frontal portrait and the other is just a fully grown solarian. Not to mention I expected Heng to look different because Ruyi talked about how he doesn’t know how Yi “maintained his youth after all these years”. Its certainly not a far off stretch, and this game released just two weeks ago. I get that its a bit of a weird connection to make but it isn’t as if its blatantly obvious.
Don’t overexaggerate your reaction.
She is probably the most "hollow Knight-ish" boss I've fought in this game
just swarms you with easy to dodge/parry attacks while there's actually a rythm to it
That was so sad to watch story wise.
I would've died 20 times over fighting her
I really think some people are going to make some totally normal fanart of Lady Ethereal.
Yep, already seen a few...
Not my fault the devs decided to give her boobs so much movement
HELL NAW 😭
There will be more porn of jiequan than lady ethereal, i bet
Third phase. Running while parrying the double attack into dodging the ground break attack. Falling onto her releasing a charge attack then follow up to double azure bow finisher, is why this game is S tier
Mf that was a move from dagon ball im 100% sure
Yi locking in to extinctionmaxx the solarian population
Nice job! The worst thing about this fight for me was having to repeat the trivial first phase each time. It's necessary for showcasing her move set before the clones are introduced but after my 5th death or so I wished I could skip it! Took me about 12 attempts total.
Yeah triviality of the first phase was a little frustrating after you'd mastered it, but it would have been brutal to do that fight without it I think. I died about 50 times to her so you can imagine how I felt!
Poor lady.
let me hug her.
@@unoviverseyt No, it's my turn now.
You ARE SIMP
I just want to tell her that everything is alright
@@emojothejojo same
i feel genuinley conflicted cus on one hand i would 100% smash
on the other i just wanna give her a hug as we share our problems and a jumbo tub of ice cream
Holy crap, no wonder the horror vibes of this boss stage were so familiar! Red Candle Games made Detention!
I got my ass kicked for an hour but then I had a lucky run, phase 2 was almost flawless then I had the sloppiest phase 3 ever and I beat her with like 15% hp left. I really liked this bossfight and I will do better at it once I finish the game
Great job by the way damn
Is this what would happen if toriel killed frisk in the ruins
so you do just have to dodge that big ground slam in phase 3, I kept trying to parry it lol, thanks!
fighting this boss with one hand is hard as hell!
i forgot unbound counter existed and this took me so long to beat LOL. The music was so good thoughhhhhhh and the boss was fun once you learn it!! I feel bad for her though, I wish we got more of her story.
Imagine there is option to stay, being her husband "OwO"
A lot of people would have definitely chosen that
When you unbound deflect her charge, it causes you to jump as if you did a Tai-chi kick, and that honestly messes with my timing in p3 -.-
Yeah, that was a hassle at first too. In this scenario, you'll either have to parry the next attack in the air or dash crimson attacks.
But the cool thing about that is that it makes it possible to double counter her - Right after the unbound counter on her charge, do an instant Tai-chi kick and you will cause double internal damage against her
@@kaitomajima7426 Yeah, I got through it on grit eventually. Had to get a little lucky with her chraging up that big ball she slams into the ground like 4-5 times in a row. Allowed for a lot of free dmg. Then I got the grotto Sol down in 5 tries xD. Lady still my worst fight so far by far.
i was wondering, is there a way to tell which clone can be attacked in phase 2? or do you just have to hit all of them until your attacks connect?
It is hard to tell which clone is the real one most of the time. After certain attacks however, Lady Ethereal's face won't be masked by a shadow and therefore you can attack because that one is not a clone.
The strategy here is to unbound counter and deal internal damage as much as possible, and strike and foo charm when she leaves an opening.
She had to experience so many things in her life, i can relate to her pain. Wish there is a part 2 of this game and we see her again. Even if she is in peace.
Just fought this boss today, learning is succeeding, took me like five attempts.
Hey I have a question, I just beat this bossfight and then I saw your video and you have an air dash. Where do you get the air dash? Because I don't have it
You can find it inside the Factory Underground's Root Node, here:
imgur.com/a/yZjAG8r
From the New Kunlun Central Hub, go to the lower passageway from the right and go all the way to the left. Go through the Cortex Center, and go straight left until you reach the bounds of the factory. You will see an elevator that leads you to the Factory Underground.
@@kaitomajima7426 Thanks
The dash helped me get that chest in the pavilion so thanks a lot
Lore accurate Yi
G-Man: Rise And Shine, Mr. Ying, Rise And Shine.
No not arise and shine 😂
What jade build are u using?
Its sistets of battle all over again, and i fucking love it (btw, i no hit her in my wining atempt lol [if you dont count bad parry DMG])
I just want her to be happy
Why did they have to make her look like goat mom ;w;
Her prototype is a lynx
@@lizardgay9084 Still, there are some resemblances to Toriel.
Because they wanted to show toriel at her full power obviously, we know goat mom's holding back as a boss monster in undertale
This is just lore accurate toriel@@jorgemigueltavares6041
@@jorgemigueltavares6041 yeah she kinda looks like Tori but even more insane
I wonder why is she the only sol that doesn't show her real name, but called Lady Ethereal instead.
I guess it was just a different choice to translate the name compared to others. Her name is fu dei in Taiwanese/Chinese, which sounds like "butterfly" in Taiwanese/Chinese.
@@mancreeper1117 Oh thank for info
@@mancreeper1117she can also be called "Kōnglíng nǚshì" in traditional Chinese.
@@mancreeper1117 all are the names literal things?
@@jeronimoheuchert3786Taiwanese here.
All of the names in this game are from ancient mythological stories. For example, Yi is the hero shooting down nine suns.
I got nightmare grimm flashbacks with her attacks ;-;
PM distortion =
How I think of this
that's that and this is this
Whats your set up here
I wish we could've saved her. 😢
That was 500 years ago. Things were already too late once our MC fell into Statis Sleep.
All that matters, is that he did save her in the end.
So much pain.....
So much misery.....
So much sadness.....
So much negativity.....
Smash
Lady ethereal supremacy
How are you parrying while holding down the parry button the whole time? You’re telling me I don’t have to perfect parry everything?
Before encountering Lady Ethereal, you'll unlock a move called the "Unbounding Counter". This counter is executed by holding down the parry button and releasing right when the enemy is going to attack you.
It's incredibly tricky to time these, but they do a great amount of internal damage against enemies. Also, this counter doesn't have "late parry" windows, so if you can predict moves it can actually be a safer option.
@@kaitomajima7426 WHY IS THIS UNLOCKED LATE GAME FUUUUCK
Horror vibes?
Silent hill meets psychonauts
That's Red Candle Games for you.
They created “Detention” after all
Is that her heart beating in the background?
I think that's her brain mixed with symbolism of cocoon/butterfly, partially relating to her physical state. It's the back of her head.
5:25 would
.......Tori?
Is this game about as hard as blasphemous?
I'm not sure since I haven't played Blasphemous myself... But in my experience, the platforming is not particularly difficult or anything...The battles that are. And when it comes to battles, they are in the same level of difficulty as Sekiro, and for the last boss personally I would rate it as even more difficult than Sekiro's final boss.
Hollow knight vibes
THICCUMS
Lady ethereal = Toriel
