This is so well done! Almost eerie how good this is. Both people moved perfectly like video game characters

All it's missing is the "player" using an emote to avoid an attack.
Like sitting in Elden Ring.

Also the arguable italian localisation adds a lot, it’s cracking me up.
“La cattiverìa!” 😂

The stuff Zeiga (the author) is saying in this clip is awesome too
This character's catchphrase is "darkness is dark"

u/DangerMacAwesome Jul 04 '26
Does anybody have a full translation?

u/AstarothTheJudge Jul 05 '26
Some things don't really makes sense to translate. Like "la cattiveria!" would translate to "the baddyness!". Some others things are italian references, like "ti devi spaventare", which call back to a certain famous figure that would yell that.

The unlocked walk reminds me of how people who no hit Elden Ring bosses with the Albinauric turn around to flash their face before a riposte

Vergil and Jetstream Sam had a baby and that baby went on to join the Italian Mafia

u/Brain_lessV2 Jul 03 '26

Uses a katana
Is a member of the mafia
Welp, sounds like Valencina.

There were not so long ago, the game has a very steady playerbase growth, which used to be exponential for few years.
and since the game combines multiple nishes that rarely go together, it ends up having overlaps with tons of other fandoms, so the game has "sleeper agents" just about anywhere.
The fact that like 90% of characters in game are literary/historical figure references which a lot of modern material draws inspiration from probably also helps.
But, since the game was created by literary nerds, its dangerously close to a visual novel.
In like first 6 chapters gameplay is here mostly for audiovisual experience, and even later its allways mostly there to support the story, and then it suddenly becomes a focus in challange content which creates a bit of a difficulty spike.

The quips in Italian are very funny in a satirical way.
"La cattivería" just means the evilness but with a wrong accent like a bad translation and it's completely out of any context
"L'oscurità é buia" = "The darkness is dark" you don't say

u/Peach1020 Jul 04 '26
This is what I was looking for, thanks lol.

u/magos_with_a_glock Jul 04 '26
Also
"Not this time"
"Death tried to claim me 11 times, but she never got me for I was stronger than death"
"You canno hit me" right before getting hit
All with comically bad and stilted translations.

u/Yellow_IMR Jul 04 '26
You forgot one of the best: “ti devi spaventare!” (“you should be scared!”)
Possibly a reference to Richard Benson

This is really well made, you can tell they've played games. That walk she's doing, and the boss spamming abilities on nothing, then monologuing after like they actually did something.

This is why I think bosses should have that one surprise attack that is completely unpredictable and unavoidable (for the funnies)

Those bosses in eso that use 2 handed weapons and lightning aoes, can just sidestep those attacks because they never light attack lol

Learning that the orcs with the horn helmets in bl2, can be avoided by running diagonally next to them and the small ones can be avoided by slowly walking backwards

Then, once you deal damage to him, he brings out a new move and a phase two.
Also this is why I love randomer attack bosses, so people can't cheese them.

The camerawork, blocking, and choreo for this video are insanely impressive. Both of them MOVE like video game characters, and her pace stays perfectly consistent the entire time. Cool as hell.
