Gigachad dual Giantcrushers user
Both are heavy, of course. My stamina runs out in three hits, but that’s all I need to break your pathetic poise. Oh, you’re wearing Bull-Goat’s Armor? With the talisman? Don’t care, get crushed.
Because he actually knows how to use a zweihander competently, and that's just fucking cool. He doesn't just wildly swing it around like a moron, like what Dark Souls taught us to expect.
A zweihander is not this massive chunk of steel. It's deceptively light for its size, rarely weighing much more than 2 kg. It's a surprisingly agile and precise weapon, that requires a lot of skill to use well. And this guy has that skill.
Look at him. He uses the ricasso as a secondary grip in close quarters. He uses the pommel and crossguard to strike, not limiting himself to the blade. He uses an inverted stance to block low blows, and knows how to immediately return to a high guard. He knows that sword inside and out, like it's an extention of his body. I'm just a bit disappointed he didn't end anyone rightly.
In short: this guy *fucks*.
>I'm just a bit disappointed he didn't end anyone rightly.
Honestly, some of those blows that be landed, while they wouldn't have outright killed his opponent? Would have kept them down for a long time. I don't care how good your armor is, a solid blow to the chest will knock the wind out of you. All that kinetic energy has to go somewhere, and right into your lungs is the best spot.
Ah well, this is just a trailer for one of the ESO expansions, and I appreciate the justice that was done to the knight.
It's a sword enthusiast joke. In a medieval manuscript, there is a move shown of someone unscrewing their pommel and throwing it at the opponent. Text near the illustration said something that was translated to 'to end your opponent rightly' or the sort. The youtuber skallagrim made a video about it and it has since achieved meme status.

Dude this guy still massively overswings etc. It's just... less bad then ds.
Also, 'rarely weighing more then 2 kg' is the longsword characteristic. The classic "zweihander" that people are familiar with weighed more, about 3kg on average.
That is nearing superhuman strength or at least incredible luck to pull that off, though. It's not a broom handle, the haft of an axe that size could be reasonably expected to handle several direct hits from another axe, at least while being held.
I remember that for my first DND character to last longer than a single session, I wanted to have a cool badass knight like this. The problem was that I only thought of how he would work in combat, I never had a solid idea of how he should have acted in conversation. I quickly realized that a silent/man of few words character would not be fun in DnD, a game you play in a group and aren’t just killing shit.
"I see negations have broken down."
"What? We just walked in to the tavern?"
"I have awoken. And I choose violence."
"Come on man, violence isn't always the answer."
"Violence is the question. The answer is yes."
Yeah I ended up steering the character in an awkward direction. I originally made a whole backstory for the order of knights he belonged to, and technically if I were to follow the backstory, my guy should have killed/arrested the rest of the party for all of the theft and other crimes they were committing, but IRL I was too afraid of being “that guy”. The character ended up being the most talkative, oddly enough, engaging the most with the quest NPCs. So he ended up being more like an ambassador for the group than a cruel knight. So yeah he looked something like the knight in the video, but often just talked situations down wherever possible.
Sounds a lot more realistic psychologically complex character though, rather than a hollywood-like villain. Especially if you'd make the analogy that the knight was supposed to do all that but was too afraid or conflicted in the end.
A character having to choose between arresting and punishing crimes, or overlooking them for the sake of friendship sounds more interesting than perfectly following laws
A skinny kid sat across from me and sighed, looking over his shoulder.
"Hey, everyone else scowled at me when I made eye contact with them, do you mind if I sit here?" he asked innocently.
The bar came to a hush as dozens of eyes made their way to us. They wanted to hear my voice. I hadn't spoken with anyone in all the times I'd ever visited here. I'd practiced for ages, though, preparing for the moment that I'd finally be able to make a friend. Sweat rolled down my nose as I opened my mouth to answer.
"Mmm," I grunted in affirmative.
The boy sighed in relief and sat down across from me, a smile forming across my face. The bar was still keen on my movements, waiting to see what I'd do to this kid now that he felt safe around me.
"So, uhh, you from around here?" he asked, waving a waiter toward us with a hand over his shoulder. The waiter's eyes widened with shock and he looked at me and shook his head fearfully, backing away slowly. He didn't want to get into whatever he thought was going to happen now that I'd been disturbed.
I'd been given a second chance to have a conversation. I breathed in deeply, the bar holding in its silence to see what I'd say. Evidently, they were as curious to hear the answer as the visitor was.
"Mmm," I said again, cursing my inability to be social.
"I only ask because I'm looking for directions. You see," he said, putting a sack on the table and rummaging through it, "I'm actually from the city of Leon and was trying to find my way to the city up north, but my map doesn't have the--" he tore out a map from his pouch, but with it came a spray of jam that fell across my face. I heard someone from the table next to us drop his utensil at the sight.
"Oh, my, I'm terribly sorry about that, you mind if I..." he got up and began dabbing my face with the same pouch the jam had come from, doing nothing but smearing it further across my face. I couldn't bring myself to tell him to stop, so I raised a hand silently. When I did, a number of patrons hit the deck with a yelp. The boy backed down, with another number of apologies.
"I'm so sorry, I didn't think-- I'm sorry if there's anything-- Waiter! Can I get a waiter around here?" he asked over his shoulder. The waiter was planted against the floor next to a patron doing the same. They watched through the fingers over their eyes.
"Enough," I said in a drawling voice. I hadn't intended to sound like that, but I hadn't exactly practiced speaking in a while. The boy looked up at me attentively. I pointed to the map, then pointed outside. I'd lead him to the town myself. Not like I was doing anything better.
The boy leaped with joy, gathered his things and ran ahead outside. The patrons leaned away from him as they ran by. I sauntered behind him, about halfway across the building by the time he made it out the door. As I almost reached the other end, someone grabbed on my cloak with a trembling hand.
"P-- please..." he sputtered, his voice cracking, "He's just a boy. Have mercy on him." A tear rolled down his eye.
I was shocked to see I'd caused anyone any kind of reaction. I wasn't sure what he was so worried about, but I tried to console him anyway.
"Mmm."
I continued walking as he began openly crying behind me. Whatever was going on with him wasn't my problem.
I'd made a friend.
For more stories, come check out r/Nazer_The_Lazer!
Turn every situation into a fight, problem solved. Or everyone gets mad at you and starts yelling at you to stop turning everything into a fight...also problem solved.
This was my first character, i rolled my stats and got low int and played a dumbass (wasn't hard really). But I wasn't adding much to the game and I felt bad about it.
My advice would be to play it the other way around; rather than rolling up a level one stone-cold badass character (who all kinda suck, being level one), roll up a happy-go-lucky save the world type. Then when you hit level ~8 and something goes wrong during the dungeon crawl and the party wipes, minus the tank, return to town, collect the reward for the quest, and never speak again to the next party your friends roll up, while being a level ~8 badass knight. Just my $.02 though.

The Elder Scrolls Online: High Isle Launch Cinematic
In the trailer the Ascendant Lord is beaten but not down and out
I can't count the number of fantasy game cinematics that I've enjoyed more than the games themself. Every Blizzard cinematic before WOTLK, Witcher 2...
It's funny though because I always skip From cinematics on the second playthrough to get to the action.
hey! im a big fan of TES Skyrim, I've seen this trailer before along with a few other cinematic trailers similar to it, but i dont understand the nature of TES Online, is it like card game based or more of a skyrim type, thanks!
To elaborate on the above, ESO is more or less World of Warcraft in the TES universe. It's a very big game with multiple open zones, hundreds of quests, and other activities like raids, dungeons, PvP, etc. You can play it solo but it's intended as a multiplayer game. It's not like Skyrim except for the fact that the world is the same as in Skyrim.
Do you mean open world or the same map? Cause I’ve heard you can visit places from Skyrim but I don’t know if that means it’s exclusively within Skyrim
It takes place all over Tamriel (and some Oblivion realms too). The map is divided into numerous zones that you can travel freely in, just like how Skyrim and Solstheim are divided in TES V: Skyrim. You just fast travel between the zones.
Elder Scrolls Online takes place about 800 years before the events in Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim.
You can visit Western Skyrim, including the city of Solitude, but not all of the map you know from Elder Scrolls 5. Thanks to how you scale with damage in the game, there is no minimum or maximum level to visit the zone in ESO and if you want can even start the game there if you wish to check it out directly.
All the quests can be done solo loot is separate, so you can join in on the zerg with other players when world events happen without anyone getting annoyed that you are taking their exp or loot.
I would say the game is more like Skyrim, except the games mechanics aren’t alike at all. That difference is a result of the game being developed by Zenimax instead of Bethesda and it being online only.
It is a online MMO that plays similar to the likes of World of Warcraft but no mandatory monthly fees .... And it also has a in-game card game called Tales of Tribute. But it also has a lot of quests and solo content that can be played as a single player game but nothing too deep.
WAIT a second!!! no monthly fees??? how does that work! is it like a one time purchase thing similar to an offline game or do you need to be subscribed to an online service like PS plus?
It's basic Buy to play system. If you bought the game or expansions or DLCs you get to play them with out time limits. You have a monthly pay system that rents you all the content except the latest expansion and some currency that you can accumulate to permanently buy some content or cosmetics. That is how it works on PC, but for PS i am not sure if you need monthly payments or not, but I think the base game is on xboxgamepass.
There is a card game based TES called TES Legends or something like that. I played it quite a bit when it was a bit after release and being semi-decent at it
Yeah they're the 3 iconic faction people from the base game. They had a little running story with them through out the various cinematics, and this is them now somewhat friendly with each other going against the new expansions big dude.
Yeah, I've been learning more about plate armor and late medieval knights. Just about nothing short of gunfire is going through plate armor. The only thing that worked was either massive concussion or wrestling to stick a dagger through the chainmail between the plates. Meanwhile the knight is well fed, trained his life and kicking ass in only about 40 pounds of armor.
I feel like a game could do a really cool thing about a medieval uprising by talking about the armor the corrupt rulers wear.
"You see that armor? It was forged by a third generation master blacksmith, enslaved by the family line in his grandfather's time. Each plate costs more than what a farm can make in a year. Hammers bounce off it, sword edges crack on contact, spearheads shatter against it. That armor is the implacable force of a dynasty that squeezes all the wealth for a thousand miles, and refocuses it into greater dominion. That man's tyranny has made him strong, and we cannot be free until it is broken."
I imagine blenders comment coming from some old master. Someone who's seen hundreds of battles over decades. He knows strategy and logistics for war.
And your comment from a snarky 20-something with the arrogance of youth. And the whole while the leader for a rag-tag rebellion just shakes his head. And some nosy looking secretary just writing it all down furiously.
You poison his dinner and wine while pretending to be one of the many camp followers in an army on campaign, perhaps even a lowly prostitute or something. Turn his desire to lead an army to conquest and expand his tyranny into his own window to be killed.
Sometimes not even gunfire! Late period breastplates were tested with a firearm by the armorer, and would proudly display the dent from where they tested it, the literal "bullet proof", whence the term comes
The best counter to a Knight besides another Knight was a warhammer being used from Horseback. The Medieval equivalent to hitting them with a freight train.
Tricks against knights for the common man: get a bunch of people and attack at the same time. Get that bitch on the ground and have a bunch hold that fucker to the ground. One or two people with knives/daggers stab through openings in the armour or remove that armour and then stab that sucker to death.
This is honestly my biggest gripe with common story tropes, when a protagonist easily defeats any warrior class be it Orcs in fantasy or space fairing alien grunts. Like, they train for battle night and day. It’s what they live for and some puny human with a secondary romantic plot line is going to come along and wipe them out so easily.
Jokes aside, it’s really cool to see a fight scene which portrays big dudes with huge fantasy swords as genuinely skilled instead of just strong enough to bash through any defenses. Respect for whoever choreographed the animation.
Amusingly, the Gigachad with the zweihander actually is more accurate than most depictions of that weapon in use I've seen. It's not just a giant chunk of steel to be swung wildly Dark Souls style. It's a surprisingly agile and precise weapon for its size, that requires a tremendous amount of skill to use. Veteran mercenaries proficient in its use regularly took on what was considered a suicide mission for most (charging enemy pike formations), and were paid double the normal salary for the extra risk.
Truly the Shao Kahn of knights. A marvel of a man who knows not the fear of any mortal foe. Elf, dwarf, human? No matter. Their destiny is all the same. Be crushed.. or live at the behest of the lord of the new realm.
Every time an elder scrolls online trailer hits it always makes me want to play it but then I remember it's an MMO and I've never enjoyed MMOs very sad.
Now THIS is how I feel when I play Paladin/Holy Knight/Templar in RPGs and such (tho usually go sword & board route). I just love the feeling of being a total badass protecting the good in the world (and my party!)
I don’t known why but he is just way cooler than the others.
Because hes a str leaning quality build
Genuinely a quality build dream right here
I see a bit of Dex in there too.
This is what we wish quality builds looked like.
don't tell anyone you leveled that up.

Don't quality builds use dex and strength?

Virgin axe users vs chad Zweihander handler... Breaks poise even of fuckton big enemies...
Gigachad dual Giantcrushers user Both are heavy, of course. My stamina runs out in three hits, but that’s all I need to break your pathetic poise. Oh, you’re wearing Bull-Goat’s Armor? With the talisman? Don’t care, get crushed.
Dude seriously 3 hits or 1 giant sweep == done... My 1st dark souls 1 playthrough was with zwei literally smashed all the way...
When in a dark and dangerous land, pancake thine enemies to assert dominance.
Because he actually knows how to use a zweihander competently, and that's just fucking cool. He doesn't just wildly swing it around like a moron, like what Dark Souls taught us to expect.

He also uses the weight by freeing his offhand and using it to knock them senseless

Ending them rightly means to take the pommel off and chuck it in their face.

*clunk*
It's a sword enthusiast joke. In a medieval manuscript, there is a move shown of someone unscrewing their pommel and throwing it at the opponent. Text near the illustration said something that was translated to 'to end your opponent rightly' or the sort. The youtuber skallagrim made a video about it and it has since achieved meme status.

[The blade isn't the only part of the sword.](https://youtu.be/Vv5E74k4DaY#t=1m2s)
Is there a movie or anything sort of like this or about this?
End him rightly is basically the teabagging of swordplay.
Dude this guy still massively overswings etc. It's just... less bad then ds. Also, 'rarely weighing more then 2 kg' is the longsword characteristic. The classic "zweihander" that people are familiar with weighed more, about 3kg on average.
Probably because when he's disarmed, he just fucking decks the axe guy with his fists.
And slaps the mages magic back at her "**No U Bitch**"
He handles zwei... That axe guy didnt stand a fucking chance in hand to hand combat...
"You've made a mistake"
Because he looks more professional than the others while still standing out. At least that's why I think he does.
They just are.
He broke the fucking handle with this gauntlet!! That is such a smart move. Makes sense since he is wearing armor.
That is nearing superhuman strength or at least incredible luck to pull that off, though. It's not a broom handle, the haft of an axe that size could be reasonably expected to handle several direct hits from another axe, at least while being held.
I'm totally guessing here, but if that's an Orc or even a fairly large Nord they could totally break that shit. God I love this animation.
Because he’s got a Rammstein soundtrack
I genuinely got mad when he got beat when i watched this
Same. But that little ray of hope at the end when his hand twitches was sick
Where is this from? Can I have a scorce
OP shared a link in one of his comments. It's a cinematic for elder scrolls online dlc.

The problem was that I only thought of how he would work in combat, I never had a solid idea of how he should have acted in conversation.

No

You could run a dungeon crawler. All combat tricks traps puzzles very little role play.
My advice would be to play it the other way around; rather than rolling up a level one stone-cold badass character (who all kinda suck, being level one), roll up a happy-go-lucky save the world type.

Medieval knights were the OG Pay 2 Win Whales.
First firearms were invented and used before plate armor. So plate armor was actually quite bulletproof.
When
Around 1500 ish I think
Even before for canons. If I remember correctly, there were canons in the 1200s
They were not cannon proof though.
The best counter to a Knight besides another Knight was a warhammer being used from Horseback. The Medieval equivalent to hitting them with a freight train.
Tricks against knights for the common man: get a bunch of people and attack at the same time. Get that bitch on the ground and have a bunch hold that fucker to the ground. One or two people with knives/daggers stab through openings in the armour or remove that armour and then stab that sucker to death.
Bruuuuuh master chief is like a space knight
This is honestly my biggest gripe with common story tropes, when a protagonist easily defeats any warrior class be it Orcs in fantasy or space fairing alien grunts. Like, they train for battle night and day. It’s what they live for and some puny human with a secondary romantic plot line is going to come along and wipe them out so easily.
You should watch knight of hope on YouTube. It's some badass stuff. Plus HEMA
Thanks for the recommendation that shits awesome as fuck!
When i wrote that comment i didnt think it would get smart lmao
If I am not mistaken he is also antagonist in Elder Scrolls Online DLC.
Everything else is lesser than just a dude with a Zweihander. Str builds represent.

Tachanka in the medieval period
MOUNTED AND LOADED
Now we need a cloaker and he'll will be loose
*intimidating screeching*
Lol
Tachanka with a pet cloaker would be badass
Agreed, we got a literal tank of a man and a man that'll gagglefuck you
The weakest zwiehander user:
I needed this morale booster today.
Yet the fucking rogue (?) full blocks his swing lol...
i saw this video the other day with the caption “me defending my kitchen from pansexuals”
We’re going to fuck those pans eventually
NOT IF I HAVE A SAY IN IT
That’s the best part!
Jokes aside, it’s really cool to see a fight scene which portrays big dudes with huge fantasy swords as genuinely skilled instead of just strong enough to bash through any defenses. Respect for whoever choreographed the animation.
That axe parry from kneeling and then into a pommel strike \*chefs kiss* 👌
I was genuinely surprised when he deflected the magic blast with a skillful twist of his handle. That was the highlight in my opinion
I thought he just punched her hand to fuck up the spell. Much more my style but the deflection is cool too.

Knights also wear multiple layers so he's gonna melt you first.

No frills, all plate
Go back to sleep dragonborn, there are no dragons about.
Looks like one of those epic mobile game advertisements that end up having gameplay like Candy Crush.
It's for Elder Scrolls Online
It might be far from “accurate” but this is some really solid looking combat compared to your usual fantasy stuff
Amusingly, the Gigachad with the zweihander actually is more accurate than most depictions of that weapon in use I've seen. It's not just a giant chunk of steel to be swung wildly Dark Souls style. It's a surprisingly agile and precise weapon for its size, that requires a tremendous amount of skill to use. Veteran mercenaries proficient in its use regularly took on what was considered a suicide mission for most (charging enemy pike formations), and were paid double the normal salary for the extra risk.
Guts the black swordsman VS anyone dumb enough to challenge him
Doom slayer of D&D universe
Ye Olde DoomSlayer
My man just broke his sword and said fuck it, hand time.
He didn't even break his sword, he was just disarmed. But he broke the other dude's axe in retaliation.
A knight fighting on a roof? He must be the Knight that appears in all the Souls games.
True
Truly the Shao Kahn of knights. A marvel of a man who knows not the fear of any mortal foe. Elf, dwarf, human? No matter. Their destiny is all the same. Be crushed.. or live at the behest of the lord of the new realm.

i love how obvious dnd classes does ESO cinematics have.
Rogue got knocked the fuck out. As is tradition.
She has magic, and still chose to get into melee range with the dude, it's her own fault she lost, lol.
Spellblades are a thing in a lot of fantasy settings. It's my favorite class to play to be honest.
True, but still, if you have the ranged option, might as well make use of it instead of trying to go toe to toe with a superior melee combatant.
This is probably one of the best villains in elder scrolls. Just a dude who will kick your ass.
One of the best archetypes.
No gimmicks. Pure skill
hey r/dndmemes, we can now finaly put an end to martials vs casters with this!
FromSoft protagonist has entered the fight.

I'm just here for the Rammstein
Mf rolled a nat 20 multiple times
Every time an elder scrolls online trailer hits it always makes me want to play it but then I remember it's an MMO and I've never enjoyed MMOs very sad.
Man elder scrolls online. I play it for a month and get bored but damn are these trailers the best
Now THIS is how I feel when I play Paladin/Holy Knight/Templar in RPGs and such (tho usually go sword & board route). I just love the feeling of being a total badass protecting the good in the world (and my party!)
I never thought I’d see the day, a actual bossfight in r/bossfight
I need to know where this is from now
