Elden Ring - Streamers Reaction to Messmer the Impaler Boss Part 1 (My Gameplay at the End)

​@@crowned2637 Marika calling you and all tarnished happens before the game begins, she calls you and all tarnished so that one of you will become her elden lord (or someone else's, depending on the ending you choose), that's what he's talking about, you are a possible lord, he's asking why Marika would even bother with someone who lost the grace of the golden order as her lord.

[@MarcellusMaize]

After beating the dlc I can definitely look back and say this is my favorite fight in the whole game. Messmer is the full package as both a boss and a character. Mechanically he’s fun to fight because despite how hard and aggressive he is, he never feels unfair. I never raged much fighting him because it was satisfying to learn his kit and the fight is just really fun overall. The presentation, atmosphere, and ost are fantastic. And lore wise he is actually a perfect foil to Miquella. All the trailers made Messmer look like a diabolical, genoocidal psychopath whose actions were so evil that he was erased from history. But in game he’s actually a pretty chill dude who was well liked and inspired loyalty from the people around him, Radahn even looked up to him as a big brother. When one of his black knights betrays him, Messmer doesn’t torture or kill him like you’d expect a villian would, he instead just imprisons him and mourns the loss of a brother at arms. He even has an entire clinic in his castle for treating and trying to cure the shaman jars. That same castle is built in a way that protects and hides his mother’s village. It’s clear he only did evil things because Marika ordered him to, and it becomes really tragic that he was essentially abandoned by her and only realized it upon death. Between his strength, intelligence, and loyalty I have no doubt Messmer could have been one of the most revered demi gods if he was actually allowed to pursue his own ambitions, right up there with Radahn and Godwyn. He instead ends up dying alone and abandoned with no legacy to leave behind because he was erased from history. A fate that not even the omen brothers suffered. Meanwhile Miquella is said to be a beautiful kind hearted savior who in reality is a monster who only inspires loyalty because it’s literally his ability to enchant and manipulate people. He casts aside his humanity in order to become a god and he plans on enslaving everyone beneath him under a guise of love. God I love this game.

[@edugoncalves7540]

Who many scadutree blessings did you have when you fight messmer I has so strong that I killed him in my 3 attempte I want to replay the dlc but I don't want to make my character stronger than the actual boss

[@simran789654]

The only thing i couldnt really understand is why the war never stopped, The hornsent were pretty much wiped out eons ago, Messmer couldve just called it a day and left to the lands between long ago

[@MarcellusMaize]

@@simran789654 My guess is that he didn’t leave simply because no one told him to. “My purpose standeth unchanged” that line and the tone in which he says it leads me to believe that Marika’s order that he lead crusades against the hornsent (and other creatures stripped of the grace of gold) was to be carried out indefinitely, and as-long as there was even a single one left, his goal was incomplete.

[@simran789654]

@@MarcellusMaize I really like how Miyazaki foreshadowed this pre-release by calling Messmer a "heroic" character, That and the "they were never saints" line in the trailer, It shouldve been obvious

[@legendaryseph9406]

It’s funny because it’s very obvious that he’s also supposed to be an analogous of the devil for Elden ring, cursed fire, an unholy serpent like the snake of Eden, in a world where light and gold are divine and holy he is the abyssal serpent that can block and swallow all light, and yet he was STILL like this, basically a devil who didn’t want to be one

Yes. Especially when you read his remembrance. It all makes sense now

[@tanthokg]

I noticed something strange at first but it was so quick, then the second time I reached 2nd phase it's clear

[@mercylavigne]

Are you really expecting those streamers to know anything about the lore bro. I think only Wraff and a couple others know remotely anything about what's going on.

[@sendAJtospace]

@@mercylavigne Do you really expect most players, let alone streamers to bother with any of the lore? Fromsoft games have garnered a certain reputation, and their games are seen as nothing more than “the hard games”. Nothing more than a challenge to overcome for the sake of bragging rights. The playerbase is way too big to expect that, those who know anything about what’s going on are the tiny minority. Even among those that do know, a lot of players are still confused and trying to piece everything together(such as myself)if not just straight up lost. That’s just a consequence of Fromsoft’s storytelling. People are used to being told stories with everything laid out for them, being shown every single event that happens. The 99% won’t ever think to look at an item description, and they’d definitely never think that item descriptions could hold relevant narrative information. And to be clear, I’m not throwing flak at anyone who doesn’t know what’s going on. I’m just pointing out that this is simply the way it is.

[@thatrainbowquickie8395]

i think that's what ela meant by "that makes sense"

[@nobuffer101]

I love that Messmer isn’t exactly mad about being abandoned by Marika, rather he’s mad that she abandoned the Tarnished but let them return. He’s not mad, he’s jealous.

[@Khann_2102]

Part of me can imagine Messmer being a friend to Tarnished if the circumstances are different

[@siubidubi5897]

It seems there is a lot of paradox and confusion in Messmer. He loves his mother, yet he feels hatred towards her for abandoning him. He doesn't want to be 'a lord devoid of light', yet he knows he is a one. He hates himself for his snake curse, yet he chooses to use its power. He kills those stripped of Grace of Gold, yet he's also a one. He sees Tarnished as an inferior, yet he's jealous of their grace and chance to become an Elden Lord. Yep, when you see Messmer, you start to think what could have been...

[@DreyfusLagoon]

[@universal_wisdom3416]

The SICKEST boss cinematic I think I’ve ever seen. The snake eye inches away from your face in the beginning gave me CHILLS bro. And the second phase with his eye missing and the snake coiled up in his socket, oh my god I lost my mind. 10/10 game I swear.

@@MrNorbi001 education bro? NOBODY speaks like that anymore. Sometimes it's just really funny to see those bosses speaking in such articulate way. It's almost comical in some instances.

It seems like that golden eye infused with grace, acted as a seal to his curse. Probably given to him by his mother Marika. I want to see what Vaati thinks.

[@loomingmoon4682]

I thought it was supposed to quell doubts about the Erdtree and Marika's guidance, and the black pupil makes all your worst fears come to life

[@SandyEye]

I’d guess it’s more like just the last bit of grace he had. In order to attempt to beat us, he fully succumbs to the abyssal snake. Perhaps if we had actually died here, he would’ve killed himself afterward since he no longer Grace himself

[@loomingmoon4682]

@@SandyEye I'm still not even certain what the Abyssal Snake is

[@thegrandmaster1637]

@@loomingmoon4682what we do know is that similar to how Malenia was born afflicted with rot, Messmer was born afflicted with the snake. Thus Marika bestowed the seal as his eye upon his birth in order to conceal the truth.

[@free_instructions2259]

​​@@thegrandmaster1637 Personally think that the snake could've been a blessing of the crucible as a way to help Marika in her crusade against the hornsent that seemed to have tarnished the sanctity of life by trying to create saints out of the shamans. I mean if you take a better look at the snakes themselves then you realize that the symbols from real religion they're a reference to all have positive connotations (e.g. winged serpent=Quetzalcoatl, white serpent being connected to good luck and so on) and the only reason Messmer was shunned for these features was because Marika was under control of the Greater will/leader of the Golden order which despised the Crucible and saw the blessings as curses

[@SirenNetwork]

Got second phase on my second try and beat him at 21 attempts. He doesnt have a lot of health and he also get afflicted by rot poison and bleed which makes my build a great counter. On the flip side Malenia doesnt care much about rot and poison so i struggle hard. Half the bosses in this dlc are built for me 🎉

up in NG7, the claw dude you first encounter in 1st zone makes this boss fight look tame.

it's kinda annoying that you can't do sweep attacks with his spear except for when you do it's skill

I hate how squishy this boss is. Amazing fight but most players have like 10 blessings atp. Once you adapt to his moveset the fight ends so soon.

I was stuck on this asshole for 2 hours straight. Never felt so beaten up in this game since Placidusax. It was at this point where joy for beating the boss was sinply replaced with nothiny but relief that it was over. Happiness went out the window about 90 minutes earlier 😂

I explorer everything in the map before fighting this boss and i had like 14 scadutree blessings so I killed him in my 3 attempte I was so sad cause it give me that felling that I just beat him because I was over level

[@e-man8097]

I had 13 scadutree blessings and it still took me 25 attempts to beat him, you might just be good at the game 🤷‍♂️

[@Metranomix]

I think you are meant to fight Mesmer as one of the penultimate bosses in the game. It is cool that you can fight him much earlier if you want too (if you're good enough!), but seeing how his flame is required to progress the story as you head towards the final chapter.... it would make sense to have at least 13 -14 fragments before facing him.

[@nathanhendrickson790]

Messmer is more of a gatekeeper boss. The games basically telling you if you can’t beat him then the final boss will slaughter you so no you did exactly what you were supposed to do

[@airination6140]

Same experience, felt overleveled

[@daniels7717]

I beat him first try solo at scadu level 10. My build just seemed strong against him
