The scariest part is how he is pretty much crumbling at this point, and yet he manages to be scarier this way. 10/10 boss fight and 11/10 reference to Balerion.
when you get his heart it says that it is still beating an will beat on forever out of pure spite and will one day the consumer will be overtaken by bayle and bayle will have control once more. he cant die even when killed
@@Artorias93 I love that. Makes you feel like you only had a chance because neither of them was in their prime. Makes you feel like even though you are the Elden Lord, there are still things bigger and more dangerous than you in the cosmos of the game.
Out of all the Fromsoft bosses over the years that have done the "weakened/long past their prime but can still fuck shit up" trope, Bayle is the absolute peak of it. Literally all he has left all he has left is the broken stumps of his wings, right leg and tail yet is still by far one of the most destructively powerful entities within the game's universe.
Bc the search engine is still trying to add these fantasy names to its database. My favorite was looking up the locations of the “Scary tree fragments”
To me a lot of this song’s desperation and overpowering nature and explosive, almost heroic bits scream more about Igon than Bayle to me. As far as I’m concerned, this is Igon’s theme. His desperation, his rage, his fear and vengeance and hatred is all PERFECTLY encapsulated here. I think he deserves such an amazing OST to play during his last battle and what lets him find rest. RIP Igon, my goat
It also makes a great parallel between them because Bayle feels exactly the same about Placidusax as Igon feels about Bayle. This battle is a mirror two souls absorbed in rage and revenge look into together, and you bear witness to their mortal struggle.
I don't know why but the melody at those times, sound like the melody for the Dragons in Game of throne but under a dark tone. Instead of being majestic(GOT) its dark and scary(ER)
Definitly my favorite boss in the DLC! He was the second one I fought after the Dancing Lion and im glad it happened early so I could spend a lot of time on it and admire the spectacle also CURSE YOUUU BAYYYYYLLLLLLE
The thing that impresses me so much is that this demonic dragon is in such a ruined state... _And he makes it look_ *_terrifying._* He's fighting you with his wings in shambles and bone sticking out, and he just uses those exposed bones as a weapon. Forget the fact he's missing a leg, he'll tear you apart without it and move around just fine without it. No wonder he's known as The Dread
@@theone7059 That fight definitely gave me a lot of trouble. I really had to lock in and bring it down, when in the base game I would just brute force them. Once I got the hang of double rolling the claws and lightning it was just about endurance. Honestly hate the fight though, personally
The voice actor did so well it seems he may get immortalized as a new voice of melodrama and passion. How lovely, save that it seems Bayle had been swsllowed up in the glory of acting. Such is his limitation within the lore, I suppose: ever second fiddle. But as for the song, and for, dare I say, fiddles? I can feel the similarities to the other dragon's pieces, but this dreary thing, aaah, it's so magnificently uplifting, yet so... sudden. The emphemeral wings he rides upon, the breif flash of the lightning, the inevitability of these mortifying wounds... Like a fine dish, all made to enhance flavour, but I feel it ironically lost something Fortisaax had with his first phase. Fortisaax had a better consistency. This abruptness, it leaves me wanting. How vexing, so very vexing. And yet when the thunder sounds as the percussion plays, it fills my heart again with the joy only a truly frightening dragon can give to me! I may be too hard on this work, though. I can feel inspiration thumping in my chest again! No greater praise than to kindle an artist's spirit!
You ain’t kidding, I haven’t even gotten to this boss yet and can’t stop listening to this multiple times. What a furiously awesome composition this is.
As much as I love bayle, he's definitely the coolest, but the best still goes to fatalis from mhw in my opinion. No other boss fills me with such dread than a latin choir terrified to say his own name chanting "Historia"
CURSE YOU BAYLE‼️ 🗣🗣🗣🗣 I HEREBY VOW! YOU WILL RUE THIS DAY! BEHOLD, A TRUE DRAKE WARRIOR! YOUR FEARS MADE FLESH! SOLID OF SCALE YOU MIGHT BE, FOUL DRAGON… BUT I WILL RIDDLE WITH HOLES YOUR ROTTEN HIDE! WITH A HAIL OF HARPOONS! WITH EVERY LAST DROP OF MY BEING 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Someone said that this is Igon’s theme more than Bayle’s and I totally agree. The song so perfectly encapsulates the feeling of crashing out and punching the air, like the D1 hater Igon is.
I can't fight Bayle without Igon. The battle feels so emptied without him. Plus the fight feels so damn personal with igon by your side, you FEEL HIS ANGER, HIS RAGE BECOME YOURS!!! CUUUUURSE YOU BAYLE!!!!! Plus When the last time, a NPC hyped you up calling you a TRUE DRAKE WARRIOR, before introducing himself to his nemesis?, NONE I TELL YA!!!
*CUUUUURSE YOU, BAYLEEE!!* *I HEREBY VOW YOU WILL RUE THIS DAY!* *BEHOLD, A TRUE DRAKE WARRIOR AND I, IGON!!* *YOUR FEARS MADE FLESH!* *SOLID OF SCALE YOU MIGHT BE, FOUL DRAGON, BUT I WILL RIDDLE WITH HOLES YOUR ROTTEN HIDE!* *WITH A HAIL OF HARPOONS!!* *WITH EVERY LAST DROP OF MY BEING!!!* Geez man, what did Bayle do to the drake warrior brood that Igon is so mad at him?
@@theangrywig3905 Well, he's nowhere near Bayle when we meet him and, as far as I can remember, nothing stated that he had a direct confrontation with him before.
From soft is just above everyone else with making interesting creature design lol . Like Bayle is a cool dragon, but everyone can make a cool dragon, God of war has cool dragons , final fantasy has cool dragons too. But only fromsoft thinks one step further and thinks "What if the dragon is an amputee and attacks you with the jagged stump". who the fuck comes up with that hhahahaha. maybe monster hunter has something on par
To me, Monster Hunter is the only match for how much effort they put into their creatures, especially the spectacle fights. I'll say, even though I love Monster Hunter way more than the souls games, Placidusax, Kalameet, and Bayle are some of the coolest dragons I've seen
It's not the amputee thing. It's that Fromsoft decided that Bayle and Placidusax BOTH were going to be dragons with a visual history. Placidusax? Missing 3 heads! Bayle? Can't fly, wings are shredded, missing a leg, but TWO OF THE MISSING HEADS OF PLACIDUSAX remain, grim trophies of what we can only imagine as the greatest war between two dragons...that we will never see. Even so, there's history, this isn't some shiny Gundam Model perfect dragon. And that makes Bayle and Placidusax both better dragons for it. Igon trumps 'em both though. He is the true greatest of them all just for the short time you have him with you. The last flare of a drake warrior, ruined in body and mind, but with soul still to burn for one last fight.
*bayle sleeping in an empty area* Igon: CURSE YOU BAYLE!!!! *bayle in the grocery store* Igon: CURSE YOU BAYLE!!!!! *bayle on a date with a female dragon, but outside of the restaurant* igon: CURSE YOU BAYLE!!!! *internet* "CURSE YOU BAYLE!!!!!"
No, Bayle challenged Placidusax & fled after taking at least 2 of his heads. In response, Placidusax created Dragon Communion as a way to cull Bayle & Greyolls children for his treason.
I think it’s more like … Bayle may be a tyrannical faction leader , and leader of the regular dragons . He may have killed many dragons and eaten their hearts as a form of communion to grow stronger . And I assume he supported survival of the fittest, that’s why all the dragons on the mountain are dead or fighting. This belief eventually led him to take on Placidusax but ended in a stalemate . I think Bayle also probably killed some ancient dragons and devoured them… as in his second phase he grows a second pair of wings, which may mean he was evolving into an ancient dragon or something else
Everyone loves Igon but honestly the fight is much more fun without him, he kinda ruins the fight with how much he snipes bayle's head and gets free staggers.
I've been seeing this sentiment a bit and I'm just wondering what was wrong with my Igon lol. Guy was effectively worthless aside from drawing aggro every once in a while, unless he decided to whip out the roar and do like 2k
the sound at 1:15 ruins this entire theme for me, I know it's small but hearing it every loop when it's such a jarring sound is just, AUGH WHY, WHY IS IT THERE

Igon is such a homie 🔥
When you're so angry that you project your spirit out up a mountain to fight a massive dragon.
@@jamesnorman9160dude was literally too angry to die
Igon made the fight turn from a 10/10 to a 11/10.
