The battle between the two was implied to be a stalemate. As a draw would still mean Malenia was never defeated. Also Malenia was stated to have given into the Scarlet Rot to "meet Radahn's measure", meaning she wasn't able to beat him without the rot. And finally, Malenia was pulled out of the battlefield slumbering all the way back to the Haligtree after blooming, while Radahn was still alive. Had she been left there, she would have died.
@simonsupersad17222 жыл бұрын
You seem to have left out the part where the rot was also eating away at Malenia from the inside, she was missing body parts, partially blind and she was also not at full power because she wasn’t at the third bloom. I love Radhan but you dickriders are annoying creating your own lore and passing off your opinions as facts. Also she was born with the rot, yes it’s a cancer but also part of her abilities to use. This is war to the death and anything goes.

Well she was born cursed with the rot so there was no, "beating him without the rot." The rot is apart of her. Plus she was dealing with it since birth. What happened to radahn was she cursed him with her rot. And he couldn't even deal with it for a second. It absolutely destroyed his mind in the process. That's why it's a stale mate. She over exerted herself and fell into a deep sleep and radahn could no longer continue the fight because he was driven insane. He no longer could rationalize and was essentially turned into a clueless beast with an insatiable appetite. If he happened to kill her. It wouldn't have been legitimate as victory for radahn. 1. Cause she had to be completely disabled for him to win. And 2. There was no point after his mind got destroyed because his goals and ambition ceased to exist at the point. A strong mind is also important.

But at early release of the game I couldn't beat him without the help of the others, and it's was magnificent battle. But now with the unnecessary nerf and NG+2 I can easily beat him in his first phase. That's really a bummer. If there is a boss that needs a nerf it's melnia without a doubt

Warriors all, honorable to a fault, fighting for their fellow kin, to prevent some great evil from befalling the world. They always seem to have tragic endings to their tale, but long after their supposed demised, they still linger as fearsome enemies, and carry on as the most memorable and respected characters in their series.

Amazing work as always. As you said, truly a living legend. While I currently serve the Fell God as an ardent redeemer, I do study the Ancient Dragons (Placidusax, Granssax, etc.) and assist the Stars (Ranni; I always do her ending). And out of the Demi-god children of Marika, Radahn is an absolute favorite and I would love to have fought him at his prime - or died in his gravitational wormhole or meteor barrage, which is still epic. Anywho, I just wanted to add one more bit of lore about Redmane that I love: Redmane Knight Ogha. I love the Legendary Ashes and so far Ogha & Kristoff are my favorite. But reading the lore for Ogha is so amazing (like Finlay’s). “The longest serving member of the Redmane Knights, Ogha studied techniques to manipulate gravity alongside Radahn.” That signals to me that this knight was also a legend who travelled along side Radahn very closely. And it shows every time I summon him and he instantly begins obliterating enemies with his great bow without me even prompting. Thanks friend 😇 Anywho. Thanks again for all the great content. Radahn, Ogha, and the Redmane Knights are truly stuff of legend and I hope they get a redemption (as I wish for the Fell God and Fire Giants) once the next reign of the Lands Between begins (hopefully by Ranni, but who knows! Dung Eater and Goldmask would also be cool continuations.) Gonna go play some more ER. I think I have rambled enough. Enjoy exploring, learning, dying, and growing my beautiful, fellow Tarnished!

The fact Radhan even in his putrid form long past his true prime can still hold back THEE FUGGIN STARS!?!?! Just how powerful is this dude? How many push-ups did he do and what juice does he drink? mans straight outa DragonBall Also love the fact even with the scarlet rot festering in him and what not you can tell he still held true his beliefs holding back the stars and still cared for his horse...mad respect

By far my favorite fight in the game. A glorious entrance and story behind the fight itself. I love the character design and emotion behind him. Malenia is still my favorite of the demigods in ER and for me her story is much more sad. I love the depth of every character in the game even down to the mobs you fight along the way! Would love to have a prequel book or comic series come out to read and really dig into the lore leading up to the game.

Hmm? Oh wait your new to souls games arent you? Well thats how it usually goes with souls games. The lore is rarely just told to you. You have to read everything and come to your own conclusions. And as you progress throw the game youll find more items either confirming your theory or disproving it making you have to come up with another one based on what youve learned.

@@lewispooper3138 I actually just started the Demon Souls remake for PS5 and after only just a few hours, I'm COMPLETELY blown away. I can't believe how gorgeous this game is. EVERYTHING, from the character model, the enemies and bosses, the environment, even the animations are beautiful. I don't know why Elden Ring wasn't made with the same level of detail. I even redownload Elden Ring just to see if I was imagining just how much better Demon Souls looked, but as soon as I started playing ER, it was immediately clear how much more polished DS is. You also have MUCH better support for the Dualsense controller as well.

@@ungabunga9581 Agree. She had no disadvantages in that fight, while Radahn had to care about lots of things. And people who say that she is crippled with scarlet rot and lacked her arm, aren't right. Her prosthetics are better than real arms and scarlet rot, as we saw, making her only more dangerous. Her deed becomes only worse if we remember that because of it, the whole region which was under Radahn's control is now cursed with her poison. With the same success, Radahn could drop all stars he was holding onto her head.

It was very odd to hear you narrate a lore video. I think the script was great and you delivered it well (not as well as Vaati… obviously😄) but I felt that for you to improve you would need to build up your style. In my opinion it had a little bit of a children’s bedtime story tone and would have liked to hear a bit more character. I’m sure you have a “souls” voice in you somewhere 😊.

One sad detail i realised after watching this - Nelson. Hes struggling with Radahns weight in the pre battle cutscene. I always noticed and assumed Radahn's magic just took some of the weight and he was just still struggling a bit. But according to this video hes meant to be weightless. Which means he was slowly but surely losing even the last trace of Radahn, and slowly letting his weight down - eventually he wouldve just, squashed his friend. And walked away without even knowing.
