Silent final boss, not a single voiced dialogue, not even battle grunts

Cool boss but I hate how he suddenly starts teleporting when he has low hp. That felt really cheap

>boss starts panic rolling
wow hes jsut like me!

He also jumps at and kicks you.

It should bave been an optional fight

i would rather it be the big reveal at the end that the beast is this fucked up shattered monster and you have to choose to heal it or just murder it. then get a real ending depending on the choice made and what you used instead of the mass effect 3 redo

The fight would be ass without the main theme

>legendary fight
Lol no, the constant aoe spam and ridiculous tracking are tedious af, not to mention the garbage arena

Kino

His parries are cool

>Read about Radagon.
>Cool red hair warrior from nowhere who almost got the best of the Carian royal family.
>Seduces and marries their queen.
>Fathers two 10/10 kids and Rykard.
>Trains wolves, develops high-end holy magic and is a holy man himself.
>Leaves the queen for a goddess, makes her go mad.
>Becomes a god.
>Fathers 10/10 twins.
>Statues everywhere.
>Goldmask even mentions him by name when searching the erdtree.
>Interrupted that this no-name warrior is using his skills to get near the erdtree and destroy the Elden Ring.

>Sike, he was just another part of Marika...Literally.

I will NEVER not be mad, not because this is borderline tranny shit, but Radagon was such a cool character to read about and they wasted it. We don't even know if he was just Marika using disguise magic.

>You immediately recognize Radagon as he stands up because of his famed red hair
>As he heroically holds up his hammer, the main theme of the game starts playing

I wish his was a full boss fight with 2 phases while Elden Beast was a victory lap kind of "boss" that is very easy to defeat, which would make sense since it isn't a fighter and was constantly hiding, like the Moon Presence.

He can't just be Marika on a disguise because his allegiances, objectives and ideals directly clashed against Marika's.
Who he actually is? Its anyone's guess right now.

They created a cult. Simple.

He actually has voice grunts and has a little gasp when you KO him
Pleb take, the final boss being both a traditional kino 1v1 and a visually beautiful gimmicky victory lap was a good decision.

Elden Beast would be Ludo if not for the impossible to avoid homing holy spell that fires it's own homing spells.

Yes but I wanted Radagon to be tough as nails, multi-phase boss and then the Elden Beast be a separate boss like King Allant inside the Old One.

>visually beautiful gimmicky victory lap
It completely failed at being that
It was such an inferior divine dragon they even reused animations and attacks

>instantly legendary fight

Zanzibart was a good friend...

Holy shit, shut the fuck up.

It should've been like Bloodborne where you can do a thing and get a secret big monster final boss right after the epic old guy final boss.

it's dogshit compared to every modern FROM final boss aside from nashandra.

Radagon was always a separate being from Marika, they just had the same soul. They were only fused together by the Greater Will when it punished Marika. They could've made it simpler by saying they were twins and were fused together later, you can still have GRRM's incest fetish, too.

Damn you convinced me, Elden Beast is actually great.
I'm sorry for my pleb take, I couldn't appreciate the genius of reusing attack patterns for the final boss until your post explained it.

was I the only one who can think of nothing but this every time I see this?

Which one did they reused? I haven't played Sekiro in like 3 years.

Must have been the one where it swings the sword from right to left horizontally, I guess.
It is the only one that looks similar in any way, even the followups are already completely different, which is why I just told the guy to shut the fuck up.

I didn't think too much about him, but I'm also super jaded and kinda wanted it to be over after 160 hours. I wish my brain wasn't so fried and I could actually appreciate him. I did get pretty giddy and excited when I first saw the intro. Elden Beast put kind of a damper on it, though, but I still liked it. When I killed it, I said out loud "thank god" so take that as you will. Elden Ring has officially made me feel vidya'd out. I'm gonna go read a book or something now.

I'd enjoy the fight more if it wasn't yet another Elden Ring boss with super-fast attacks that he fires off instantly via input reading. When a boss is slowly walking towards you, you just ... can't do anything. You can't hit a button in melee or you'll eat shit to the shout. You can't hit a button at range or you'll eat shit to the fast projectile. You can't do anything except politely wait for him to attack.

Same

Even better,
Radagon fucking shrugs magic attacks off. No need to even dodge.

I was so fucking mad I went and put bloodhound step on some shit dagger and switched to it everytime that fat fucking work teleported or used that bullshit attack that made you continuously dodge/run for 20 seconds as that fucking thing teleported further and did it again … anyways bloodhound step and first try with it

He ain't good tho.
I like the premise but it isn't executed well. Boss arena is average, the boss ain't too bad but I wish he had a proper Phase 2 instead of Elden beast.

He felt like the most normal boss in the game, with pretty basic swings and a few magic attacks, not this flipping around anime bullshit. Really reminded me of Gwyn just being a fucked up dude with a sword.

can you even jump above it like in sekiro? I tried but I get hit and could only avoid it by rolling

>How do they do it?
One trick is to use the main theme of the game, used in the menu and advertising, so that when it starts you you "shit just got real".

The other trick is to have rabid acritical fans that center their identity around your product, sustained by a diet that consists exclusively in gallons of cum every day.

Then you can even have, for example, lazy quests that feel like they were put together by a 12 years old using the NeverWinterNights Aurora Toolset, and said drooling fans will still call it genius.
Because all they do is play videogames and watch Japanese cartoons, so their brains rot.

Mature.

I was that person until Elden Ring came out

I am still that person for every From game except Elden Ring

Reading that gave me the impression you're speaking from personal experience.

This but it's the Tarnished holding up Marika's hammer while Ranni watches in disapproval.

>silent final boss, not a single voiced dialogue, not even battle grunts
Wasted words are for women, and women are responsible for all the hardship in the Lands Between. Chads like Radagon and Goldmask do not waste breath.

Gotta get proteins from somewhere.

I love the attack where he grabs you and hammers your face in, and also the one where he hammers the ground and makes the Elden Ring glow on it. Every attack he does is really fun to dodge, best boss in the game.

Radagon is his own being and the fact that him and Marika fused together is cool as shit. Reminds me of Greek and Nordic mythology

>so their brains rot.
he writes, as he proceeds to press "Post" on a video game discussion board for children and incels

>How do they do it?
Mindless fromdrones will frogive anything, they can get as lazy as they want since you'll do any work for them

I knew he was the best when he looked bored as he was hammering my ass into the pavement with his grab.

You instantly being able to recognize Radagon is a testament to how good the lore sprinkled all over the world is.

It pissed me off so much, I summoned a spirit just because of that spell and the constant moving to the other side of the arena were so boring to deal with.

Still a 10/10 game.

How come Zanzibart moments made in Souls games are so much more interesting than the stuff other devs create?

Soul of Cinder was very disappointing in terms of challenge. The Lothric twins were much better.

But the statue that reveals Radagon is Marika is implied to have been built during the Golden Age.

Yeah, it didn’t feel like a cheap fight to me, like Godfrey’s Phase 2 with the constant ground stomps.
