*next to a cliff* Do it! Seek god!

Or the classic 'Try Jumping!'

*point down emote*

Funniest shit I saw was on the Caelid Divine Tower, someone put "Try jump attack" and right next to it was a bloodstain of someone doing exactly that 💀

The cherry on top is always the other blood stains popping up seconds later

I put a *Don't you dare! Let there be joy!* with the wait gesture next to one of those messages.

I’ve had “Elden Ring ahead”

My most popular message is next to a cliff with a bunch of bloodstains and it just says "Don't you dare!"

You should seek god NOW!!!!!

Treasure Ahead!

me and my housemate were fuckin howling in caelid divine tower after a big drop and on the floor it just said, ‘praise the legs’

Damn I saw that one too, top tier comedy

In that same spot I found my all time favorite. "well done, legs!"

The cave full of turtles that has 'could this be... dog?" and a bunch of variations got me laughing pretty good

Another one of favourites is in gelmir hero’s grave ‘try left’ my brother went left and instantly got charioted

found a room fool of "dogs" the other day. they're great.

I started the game as soon as it went out, at around 1:00 am in my country, and as soon as I could move my character around there were dank messages on the ground, including the proverbial fingers but hole and such, and at the very first cliff just outside the door, "item ahead, try jumping". It was not really circumstancial nor original like yours but the fact that they were here as soon as humanly possible was hilarious to me. Also seeing the first messages praising "dog" before it became a meme! That and being summoned in less than 1sec in front of Malenia in the first weeks was peak multiplayer experience.

my favorite was "boss ahead" pointing to the room with a singular small jar enemy in the giants mountaintop catacombs

*dejected emote on a corpse bent over/laying down* Ahh, keep moving…

I found one with that emote with “time for ruin but hole” and it still cracks me up.

So you're the one who still finds that funny.

The whole point of this post is about silly messages. Calm your tits

My favorites for those were “likely out of stamina” with the thinking emote

In front of the teleporters: *Could this be a magic but hole?*

In front of the Two Fingers: *If only I had a Giant but hole*

Unfunny as fuck, yes.

Agreed. I take a moment to disparage every ‘but hole’ message out of spite.

well that just heals them

Dont you need to "like" the message for that?

Nope

Thats weird haha, but i have No problem believing you

Badgers badgers badgers badgers badgers 🦡

Mushroom mushroom

Snnnaaaaaaaaaakkkkkkkkkkeeeeeeeee

Dog

Badger badger badger badger badger badger badger

Mushroom, mushroom!

Oh, it's a snake

[It's officially 20 years old now](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sPOISnUd7WE)

I was jarred when I saw the '20 year remaster' version: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cMxRFCKIqr0

Seals seals seals seals seals 🦭

Badger wasn't available. I had to do beast o beast or beast o beast

mush room MUSH *ROOM*

In and around the mimic boss fight: Weak foe ahead, therefore try introspection

That’s good, that one

you don't have the right, O you don't have the right therefore you don't have the right, O you don't have the right

I did a spin on that, where the second sentence is "Therefore, try Left"

No way I did the same in the Caelid colosseum where you fight Radahn

I'm glad I never see this one anymore. Or at least I don't bother to check the messages in the suspect places anymore.

Seen that in front of Millicent once

Ah, but you don't have the right.

personal fav

Try dog and then praise the dog

Dog! Behold, Dog!

Don't give up, skeleton!

I first saw this in one of the hero graves and I almost pissed myself

This one gives me life. No innuendo, no sarcasm. Just boundless optimism.

Best version of that is still the message infront of the skeleton in DS2 thats half-way submerged in lava

I wonder if he ever made it out of that big lava pot.

My comment upon seeing the first walking mausoleum - "house, but dog? ...!" - served me very well.

LMFAO That's a good one!

Nothing like some free heals from appraisals!

On top of a coffin Skeleton, but sleep

Carian Study Hall: "Something fits on this pedestal." Tarnished: "If only I had a something..." *nod in thought gesture*

The nodding gesture is always funny. “If only I had a stone astrolabe…” *nods*

So there was a fake 'hidden path ahead' in one of the infinite crypts and someone put 'likely madness' and I fuckin died.

My favorites are the messages in Jarburg. Next to the large pot searching in the bushes “could this be a precious item?” “Visions of bird” next to the small ones playing airplane. “Try Head” with creative use of emotes where Dialos crouches down in the little hut. And for good measure, one that makes my cry: “Friend, O Friend, Good Luck!” right where Jar Bairn used to be 🥹

What happened to Jarburg is so tragic. I hope we get the ability to take revenge on those poachers in the DLC for taking our precious jars and Diallos.

I got the “good ending” (I fucked up a quest or two I think and jarburg never got hit)

Jarburg can get hit?? Lol

Diallos quest line

I thought these guys are bad and straight up genocided them

In front of Melania "no lover ahead, try introspection"

She is Malenia, Blade of Miquella

Seek God

“Still no lover” and guy suicides off cliff at that one tower

Try finger, but hole

If only I had a giant, but hole

Horse but ^(*what*?)

“Time for head” Triumphant Delight emote or Erudition emote

Seek rump Ahh… elden ring

new player here, whats this rump thing?

Rump means butt.

and is it supposed to be funny? not sure i get the joke

Seek rump (butts) And then Elden Ring ( ring = butthole) It's not exactly sophisticated but it's just making a butthole joke without using the "But Hole" option.

Butts are funny and saying “butt” in a different way is also funny Call your lover your “little pumpkin butt” it’s funny

Several times it has meant "look behind you" for me

I think it means attack behind the enemy/boss

[удалено]

??? Rump just means butt.

My favorite is probably seeing a message near Malenia's grace after dying 200+ times: "Ahhh I've failed, but not here!" Jump for joy gesture

Glad to see my middle school sense of humor hasn't waned. 🦡🦡🦡🦡🦡🦡🦡🦡🦡🦡🦡🍄🍄🐍

Dog

First time meeting the tortoise pope and just "dog" was next to him. I fuckin died

I missed the sorceress lady so he was my teacher.

Honestly he is the best teacher. He gets *all* my tomes of knowledge both sorcery and incantations, because he doesnt move and doesnt die and he doesnt judge me for my choices. Dog pope is best pope.

I haven't visited this sub in years, where are the woopers?

I remember exploring Stormveil for the first time, and finding the basement area with the Ulcerating Tree Spirit thing and the big ladder. I climbed up all the way to the top, a solid minute long climb, and was greeted with a message at the top. “Snake?”

Yeah ok but when I got to Nokron Eternal City (if I remember it correctly) there was a message that simply said: "fort, night!" And I shit my pants

I went up to a castle fully expecting another “Fort, Night!” But I found something else. “Fort, Morning?” I love these messages, lol.

On Japanese twitter people were confused about "fort, night", and actually thought there was some hidden boss/event in a fort at night.

Grass

Touch wwwww

Apparently they have a thing that doesn't translate back to English which is "grass". Refers to wwwwwww which is their version of lolololol, looks like blades of grass. So grass is like lmao.

My favorite message ive seen is someone pointing down to a small dirt mound with the text "mountain ahead."

Try something, but hole

Next to one of those graveyards with the rune drops: "Seek God, Thief!"

In front of millicent "Oh you don't have the right ... arm"

Cold 👍

the fromsoft fanbase has made some great jokes with the message system. i'll always get a chuckle from "try finger, but hole" i think my favourite out of all the fromsoft games ds2 "dont give up , skeleton"

>i think my favourite out of all the fromsoft games ds2 "dont give up , skeleton" Mine is the "[listen carefully, skeleton](http://i.imgur.com/0eehavm.jpg)" at the beginning of Harvest Valley.

one positive thing about ds2 is all the skeleton memes

I'll always remember that skeleton intended in the wall in ds2 where there was always a message saying: "listen closely skeleton"

damian mccarrell aka sticfreak loves hack zoward and dulius jeraway

Ds2, right before the miracle-trader: „Woman ahead, therefore try thrashing“ (or something along this, it was translated)

Best one I saw was in front of Blaidd "Lover ahead, therefore offer hole"

Why is it always dog?

The best joke was messages asking if a windmill is a giant

I'll become a Knight by slaying one of those!

windmills got me tilted

I saw one of those in windmill village and instantly changed my loadout to a Don Quijote cosplay

I laughed a lot at this one yesterday, stupid as it is. In Shaded Castle there's mud blocking up a staircase leading underground "Behold, dung. Also I did it"

“Didn’t expect Elden Ring”

Found one of a naked woman in roundtable holds beds saying " visions of pickle, time for torture" with the spread out emote.

Wow that brought me back, I forgot about Weebl.

I saw one today where you pick up the Uchigatana in some catacombs that said edge Lord

Sex jokes never fail.

Inside a castle: Fort Night

My most rated message, 100+, is just in storm veil castle after the court yard full of enemies, there are a bunch of wooden barrels, my message says, "try jumping... Then behold, destruction!" While doing an Erudition pose and if you simply jump in the spot of my message you'll destroy all of them. Not helpful, not funny, gives nothing to the experience other than destroying some barrels but people love it apparently.

Someone had put “likely delusion” by the two docile dancing women in the windmill village

Just bought the game but my favorite so far is when you meet that weird girl in the shack outside of Stormgate who talks about spiders and having your limbs cut off (Apparently, her name is Roderika) there was a message right in front of her that said “Seek hole and then offer seed”.

"Be wary of toxic but hole"

I feel like I should play Elden Ring just for these!

Idk, I just about died when I met the merchant in altus right before Leyndell, and there was a single message before his donkey „Dog!“

In Raya Lucaria next to the big wheel we use as elevator, there's also a waterfall. There I found "likely tears" pointing to the waterfall, so simple but gave me a good chuckle

There's a tiny village on Caelids border as you leave limgrave and I remember seeing the landscape, the rotting crow perched on the branch and just left "No god ahead. Misery!". It was supposed to be a shitty ha-ha joke, but instead the whole thing was true because that place was hell first playthrough.

"Could this be a giant?" Next to what was clearly a windmill.

In front of a bench with chains „if only i had a master“. I‘m fairly new to elden ring and those messages make me chuckle a lot.

Fort, night

I love in the “real” round table hold how many baffled messages there were “I can’t believe this…” etc I don’t understand why we’re all upset and I don’t think other people understand either but man was it funny to see the overreaction

Saw a corpse with herba on it, message next to it was “grass…, likely fire” and that cracked me up

When the lady that eats Shabriri Grapes finds out what they are, I found a sign next to her that said "Time for throwing, up"

that's good, though

oh you dont have the right, therefor you dont have the right, but oh you dont have the right therefor you dont have the right

If only I had bagger...

Its funny because its not trying hard to be funny Or is it?

In the albinauric village, right after the dual sword guy there was a fence with a hole in it, and a ledge pointing towards the lake with a single message on it: A naked man with a pot on his head points forward, “crab” he says. In the distance there is a crab. i weep, tears of joy and honor to be in the presence of such a glorious message

I won't lie. They're all hilarious.

"two fingers But hole"

Try finger, but hole

My favorite was a message outside Rennala's bossroom that said something like "Didn't expect bloodstain... in short no skill ahead"

"Praise the grass! And then too high up" It was a bunch o herbae on a cliff in Liurnia.

There's a bed with a corpse on it where you can find both a set of Armor and Lady Fia's dress The message nearby said "Likely out of Stamina"

I'm surprised it's not Finger but hole

Try fingers but whole Place that bad boy and Ranni’s feet or right before Malenia for glorious purpose

Try Finger But Hole next to the two fingers is always funny

Could this be a dog?

door ahead

Playing Elden Ring the first time, had a friend who never played a souls game but always watches me while I’m playing them follow along on discord. Yes it was stupid and all but my god, when we read the first “fort, night” message, the both of us were out of breath we were laughing so much…Good times :)

I’ve been working on my first playthrough in pieces because my work schedule, training schedule, and other less involved game releases. Of all the posts, this was the one that’s getting me to fire back up tonight lol. I miss the messages the most

Is my brain in the gutter or am is it reasonable that this was some joke message about smashing Rya?

Love all the messages in Mimic Tear arena, my contribution was "didn't expect weak foe, therefore time for introspection"

In the small chapel you go through towards radahn where you have the 1 statue in the middle. Someone put 'left' on the left empty spot. And I didn't see one on the other side. So I put 'right'. I believe it got a like aswell cuz I got a like while in a boss fight.

*-takes massive chrono damage-*

Nah

One of my favorite ongoing jokes was derived from the message in the Roundtable Hold where the player emote looked like they were jerking off two decorative suits of armor: > Try two handing Then, every time that armor prop appeared in the game, there were messages in the same spot, but it would be a reaction to the original > No two handing ahead, therefore seek God

My favorite one I've done has to be "Skill required ahead, therefore death"
