Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree Trailer Analysis: Exploring Miquella’s Dark Story

-

What’s the deal with Messmer, huh?

First off, his style’s something else. It’s like he raided the Elden Ring’s wardrobe, picking and choosing as he pleased. Wrapped around him? A snake. And not just any snake. This one’s got wings, which is pretty out there, even for Elden Ring standards. Gives off strong Crucible vibes, if you ask me.

But wait, there’s more. Take a closer look at his eyes. Yep, that’s the snake-like yellow you’d recognize from Lord Rykard. And his weapon? It’s dripping with blood magic, kinda reminds you of Mohg’s taste in armory. Plus, he’s flinging around Bloodflame magic like it’s going out of style. And it starts out black. A nod to Destined Death, perhaps?

So, what’s the big idea here? Seems like Messmer’s been mixing and matching powers from Elden Ring’s most notorious blasphemers.

And then there’s this bit about Miquella. According to the DLC, he took a little trip to the Land of Shadow. Left behind everything – his flesh, his strength, even his golden lineage.

Oh, and Miyazaki? He dropped a hint that seeing Messmer on a throne isn’t just for show. It’s a big deal, symbolizing the thrones at the Erdtree’s base in Leyndell. Puts Messmer in the same league as the demigods you square off against in Elden Ring.

Talk about ambition, right?
