Literally did torrent anytime I was here I didn't know it was actually a hard section. The only time I had a hard time with these golems is when I was extremely low level and didn't abuse torrent to dodge arrows. Even then most areas have cover to avoid most of the arrow shows.

@innate2021

you can actually jump over the arrows if you time it right because the golems usually aim for you so if you manage to jump over it, the arrow misses and doesnt hit the ground below you so theres no AoE

the way he stops just to "hmm yeah the ground here is made of ground" right at the spot where the giant starts shooting at you makes me think he done it on purpose. He even walk right to the edge without reason and then a few steps forward he does the same just to recive the arrow "casually"

I mean not being aware of an obvious threat is one thing. But you gotta real special if you identify a thread correctly and proceed to ignore it and run into it like an idiot.

Lmao happened to me too. That giant just blend with the area

Kind of a let down for me I saw the giant early on. I will say the run across dodging the arrows was fun though.

"I guess I'll keep going this way". He really tries for that ignorant tone in which he already knows what's about to happen, but needs to pretend he doesn't know. Earlier in this video, his tone was natural, but later it turned all quiet and nonchalant. Also as he gets closer to the other end, he starts to keep stopping and looking down to make sure the arrow hits him.

It's obvious he knows there's a giant that's going to shoot at him, which is why he suddenly starts creeping to the edge of the bridge pretending to look around as soon as he's in range. You kids believe everything.

This just happens to me last night playing this part for the first time. I just though to myself, “Makes Sense”

Okay but the Skyrim music in the background doe

The best part of this was the random twitch chat comment that said "porn acting". "This is exactly where they would put an archer. Hmm, I'd better stand on the edge of the bridge and make sure my step-sister isn't stuck down there."

that "what was that" couldnt have been more perfect lol

Respect for Skyrim soundtrack playing in the background. I can name that song (Aurora) without even having to check myself lmao

I was expecting to be shot there also but funny enough somehow the enemy didn't aggro before I was already over.

The "what's this" tagline plays, here we go again.

I didn’t have my headphones plugged in and was riding on Torrent at this part and until I watched a video of someone at this part, I never knew there was a giant archer.

He heard a sound and he's like what's that 😹😹😹

I literally never noticed that archer. I rode across as fast as I could.

I ran through it no problem, didnt even know there was a bow guy there till just now watching this.

The best part is, if you keep running, he can't even get you

Glad I watched McCools clip before getting to this part. I was still panicking like crazy of course.

ANY true Dark Souls player would be paranoid of a path like that.

I feel like that was really scripted tbh.

bruh i was confused at first on who shot me im like wtf 💀

That is a comically large hammer

"What's that?" Famous last words

Used the horse so quick didn’t even kno there was a watcher here

He didnt start panic-rolling around once he heard a sound, what a noob

When I was crossing this bridge, I had forgotten the lesson ER had reached me when I was trying to get to Redmane castle, Long bridges are never safe.

i cant wait to watch them do this all over again in the dlc

I swear mcconnell dies on purpose all the time for content, its just getting blatant and boring at this point

First time here after I spent a good 10 mins carefully offing those Fire Cultist, the moment I stepped on that chain I see the giant in the distance, so I book it, thinking I'm going to have zero cover on here only to fall to my death right where the chain turns to cover.

the bridge was narrow and knowing fromsoft it would either be a ball or a giant spamming arrows xD

Glad to see Dark Souls 3 still getting dome love.

the amount of times he stalled so the golem could charge up his arrow it was obviously staged lol.

This is something i see a lot. People forget they have a horse in elden ring.

Honestly I had Elden ring overload after to play Throughs and haven’t touched my PS five in over a month I’m trying not to think about it so that I can forget as much as possible because I think my second or third blood-borne play through was more enjoyable than the first and I’m hoping for that experience again although Elden ring is a fucking top-tier masterpiece of masterpieces

I actually dont see the giant 😂

When i got to that part of the map i Saw the blood stains on the ground. New something was about to happen

You have that horse for a reason.

Just like Anor Londo you say...... WHEN YOU COME TO IT AND YOU CAN'T GO THROUGH IT AND YOU CAN'T KNOCK IT DOWN YOU KNOW THAT YOU'VE FOUND *THE WALL* *THE WALL* *THE WALL*

Oh look, a dark cramped room with lots of destructible world items inside. I sure hope a grunt enemy doesn't sneak up from behind these barrels to try to backstab me!

Using Torrent on this bridge and constantly hopping alleviates the problem with the giant . He may hit you on Torrent but it’s not devastating . As much.

Horses are nice to use.... lol

Proud to say I've never died on that bridge

Oh that poor sweet summer child

Why this guy always looks like he‘s seeing Zombie Cows

Not pretending at all.. bruh

never died here, already saw the mf 🏹 archer

My TV is absolutely massive so I unfortunately saw the giant before he even fired lol. Big TV took away my surprise 😆

I didn't know McConnell was a streamer

We all knew it was coming but it was still funny...

Visions of Anor Londo...

no way he didn't see that

WHAT A FUCKING DAY

Funny thing is, as soon as I got to that bridge I had ol' Akbar feeling, "This is a trap!". Managed to dodge that arrow just in time. It just seemed too calm for Elden Ring area, perfect place for an ambush and nothing seems to be there? Too good to be true.

Honestly, it's nowhere near as evil as the Anor Londo archers.

What armour is he wearing? I thought I had every set but I can't think what that one is??

Tbh I don't remember a single time I got hit by this guy. I ride on Torrent first time and two shots missed me and since then whenever I pass I come to lower part and hide behind a tile from first shot and pass the bridhe by second.

Am I the only one who sees that he was waiting for that to happen? "for content"

If you actually paid attention to the video, he's shown to be already walking from the very start. Now after reaching the guy sitting on a chair (which is a very wide platform so normal players would stop and check as i did myself). He starts trying to find a platform that he can maybe go down on. Which he can also check while being on a horse.

I really hate when steamers fake constant it takes fun out of watching, I believe he was faking it in this clip because before he was talking about the giant with bow at the end of the bridge

Man predicted it, and man walked straight into it.
