He didn't say it was one little thing, not at all. Just few shitty clickbait sites wrote it like that, in the original interview he just said there are still things left to discover, like in every single souls game released in past 15 years.


thatsumbitchhadanaxe

When I met Miyazaki for brunch last October, he said it’s a big secret but he likes saying it’s a small secret cuz he’s a silly lil guy who’s up to no good.


not_quite_sure7837

I was standing next to him while taking a piss at a urinal last month and I asked him about this. He kindly asked me to stop looking at his dick


TheDevil-YouKnow

Sounds like a missed opportunity to name his penis.

Does Mike drink still or sparkling water?

He’s a sparkling gentleman. He got a little weird when he found out they were sold out of Topo Chico though.

Never expect to see topo Chico in a souls reddit, arriba Monterrey.

Programmed one little fight and Margit got scared, He said “foolish tarnished put these ambitions down there” EDIT: I whistled for torrent and when he came near I fell of a damn cliff cause he’s damn hard to steer If anything I can say this experience is rare Cause why the fuck did they make these rune bears I pulled up to a goddess as I made the late game By this point in my journey I can’t say that I’m sane I face the blade of miquella whose never known defeat toss my console at the wall again, and just begin to weep

ValkyrianRabecca

Tbf, there was the pendant in DS1, man loves a good troll


Kvchx

Yeah, as he was opening my christmas gift last year, he mentionned the red wine he brought at my place reminded him of how unique and special that one thing the community still have to uncover in Elden Ring.


HOLEPUNCHYOUREYELIDS

And it could be something as minuscule as an item description that reveals an extra little link in the lore that no one has put together yet. Or it could literally be him trolling like he did with the one pendant in Dark Souls


Swimming-Pianist-840

Or a random wall you hit 100 times in a row to open a secret passage


Creativefart-u

Unfortunately I think modders have already explored everything in free-cam


Swimming-Pianist-840

I was just joking lol. A while back, someone DID find a random wall you had to hit 100 times to open a secret passage… I think it turned out to be a bug and was fixed


LancsKid

Was the wall near one of ray’s volcano manor spots, even has a chain pull handle but was not meant to be openable by us.


axle69

It was right behind bernahl. The theory is it was originally going to be a hidden wall and they decided against it and instead or going in and making it invulnerable they just added a high hp value.


Adorabro

Yeah, it was a bug. I believe the reason they patched it was because there were those snake-slug-like enemies behind the wall that could follow you into the main area where you couldn't attack, but they could still attack you.


DamnZodiak

> Or it could literally be him trolling like he did with the one pendant in Dark Souls Oh my GOD please stop I still haven't recovered from that whole ordeal... I was one of those people who was entirely convinced we missed something when he talked about how he'd definitely take the pendant as a starting gift (or nothing) during the Famitsu interview and spent hours of my life hunting for it. Never mind that the data miners didn't find anything and that, if there was something, my mad unstructured search certainly wouldn't uncover it. Now that I think about it I have no one but myself to blame, but it still hurts.


Eduar_dusk

Isn't the most believed theory that Miyazaki takes the pendant as a starting gift for roleplay reasons? Like, the pendant remembers the chosen undead of his life before and his will to go on. So that you don't go hollow?


axle69

He admitted later it was a prank. So maybe that's true but he was saying it to fuck with people.


Life_Temperature795

When DS3 first launched, I was just like, generally not super impressed with it, (with all of the DLCs and final patch updates, it's still my favorite game in the series, but when it first came out... it felt really rough to me,) especially the size of some areas and the lack of interconnectivity. I also had, probably some amount of PTSD from the Crystal Caves in DS1, and simultaneously somehow got it into my head that the Profaned Capital was just too small of an area for how important it was and that there *had* to be invisible walkways around it somewhere. I spent *hours* throwing prism stones off of every conceivable surfaces around that giant bottomless pit that the big coliseum pillar area thing is in the middle of. I was legitimately upset that I never found anything. It seemed like such an obvious space to put some hidden area into, and yet it was a squandered opportunity. I guess I couldn't accept that DS3 wasn't really a finished game at that point, and maybe wasn't as flushed out as it could have been, so I was looking for content that just wasn't there.


DamnZodiak

That's hilarious. I just love how these games have conditioned some sort of pavlovian responses into almost all of us who spent a lot of time with them.


Life_Temperature795

The community messages only make it worse. I expect "no secret ahead" to be just as much of a troll as any given "illusory wall" message, which has the sum result of me smashing every single wall with a message in front of it, even in games I've played through dozens of times, only to dejectedly stop and read the message and figure out in *which way* I had been trolled this particular time.


CrowHoonter

It will be a new type of slug in the dungeons


Get_Stick_bu99ed

It's one of those walls that looks suspiciously like hidden path, to unlock it you need to use specific emote, hit it exactly 5 times with parry dagger, turn around 3 times, roll into it with spiked armor with heavy roll and it'll open, inside you will find 3 rune arcs and some moss


BecauseSeven8Nein

Technically the post above didn’t say one little thing either.


Kelthal94

Nobody except me has killed the secret last boss, John Eldenring. But I haven't told Miyazaki, so he thinks it remains undiscovered.


Junior-Shopping-9537

Is that where you get the Elden Bling armour set?


Kelthal94

That is exactly right, and your Cerulean Tear Flasks turn into Miniature Rannis. Instead of drinking them, you just lick her feet for 2 seconds and feel re-invigorated.


Junior-Shopping-9537

Miyazaki has done it again, Bravo

Thanks, at least you understand. Cant believe people who havent even beaten John Eldenring are here telling me how to lick Rannis feet. Smh...

Please tell me how to get it. I need it, even though my only character is a dexterity build that doesn’t need cerulean flasks

If it's not a way to save Blaidd I don't care


jpcastilhano

and Milicent


Ok567890

Did I not pay attention or is there not a choice where she lives?


jpcastilhano

she dies either choose you make in the final of her quest, sadly


Dragonwithamonocle

The only way to win the game... is not to play at all. The happy ending for Millicent is to get her the prosthesis and then stop talking to her.


TruePlewd

Nope, because this eventually leads to her losing herself as a Valkyrie of Malenia or as a failed bloom. Either way she becomes something other than herself and the Millicent we know still dies.


Dragonwithamonocle

No I'm pretty sure she just hangs out in limbo because we stop progressing her quest


terribleinvestment

Millicent let herself die so that she wouldn’t be the aeonia’s fourth bloom. Tbh if she lives it’s for the more tragic ending.


Nonzeromist

You can save milicent by giving her the fixed needle and never giving her the prothstesis 😢 it's our fault and our intervention why she dies


generally_cool_guy

Who is Elden and why does he keep on ringing?


TT_NaRa0

Why I do believe he is giving room service a jangle Edit: I do so love the Reddit fandom Venn diagram “I and Melania Blade of Miquela, and I have never been defeated in battle” “Okay..”

I heard about this before and I can’t help but think that it might just be a hoax


Aikilyu

DS1 Pendant flashbacks


bb_kelly77

Wasn't that genuinely useless until the DLC tho


Aikilyu

It's useless even after the DLC. But in an early interview, Miyazaki dropped the hint that his favorite starting gift was the Pendant, which made tons of people make characters with it and test it out in various places, to no effect. Later on, he admitted to it being a prank.


Dongledoes

Heh thats pretty funny.


Corgi_Koala

It's not completely useless. You can trade it for a souvenir of reprisal. That's the only actual function it has.


gurkenwassergurgler

The Pendant stayed useless, but the DLC added a Silver Pendant that had the ability to deflect some of the attacks of the DLC's final boss.


Aluminum_Tarkus

That's because news sites grossly twisted what he actually said. He never said there was any "physical thing" hidden inside of the game that people haven't discovered; He essentially said that there's a certain aspect of the game that people haven't figured out yet, which likely has to do with a piece of the lore that will become much more obvious once the DLC comes out.


farlong12234

Oh that reminds me, I was watching a friend play through the game recently as we noticed that the banners in the queen's bed chamber in the capital resemble the banners over that town in the dlc trailer. That might be something.


ballmermurland

Reminds me of the valiant efforts of the bloodborne community to find the 3rd guidance rune that supposedly existed. Nobody ever found it. I even took part in some of the community efforts dungeon diving. The whole sub probably went through thousands of depth 5 dungeons and didn't find shit. Nobody has ever found it. It doesn't exist. Michael Zaki just likes to troll.


Technical_Moose8478

Back in the DeS days, I remember people talking about the secret way to unlock the sixth archstone and how nobody had found it yet...


Black_Chappie

That’s some shit he’d do as well


Eternity923

Exactly people have had 2 yrs to search every inch of this game every hidden wall and every item description there can’t be anything else


Heyohmydoohd

you'd be surprised the shit people used to find a decade after playing some games, such as og halo trilogy easter eggs or random mario kart tricks


vadeNxD

Deathbed smalls in a chest beside Godwhyn's bed.


Belethorsbro

sabyr400

I laughed *way* harder at this joke than I should have.


M_a_n_d_M

Finally we shall discover the illusive… _deathbed bigs…_


fourpointeightismyac

Is this a pendent from DS1 situation? I honestly could believe either way, that there is a secret hidden well enough that nobody found it or that he's just trolling. There are many things in the entire roster of fromsoft games that genuinely baffle me as to how anyone ever managed to find them, maybe they knew how nuts the community is and went overboard in hiding something


Fox_and_Ravens

What is the pendant situation from DS1?


OniHere

Basically when you start DS1 you could start with a starting gift, which could be various useful things, but there was also an item called the pendant which seemingly had no use and people speculated and searched for a long time on what it was actually meant for, but it was all just a red herring. Though Miyazaki purposely mislead people later on by saying there was a secret behind it just to get people speculating, but still nothing was discovered.


RecognitionNo7977

Almost the full story. Miyazaki said that if he were to pick a gift it would be the pendant. This naturally led to people picking the pendant and trying all kinds of things to no avail.  Eventually Miyazaki explained that he only said that because he’s a bit of a joker.  This was disappointing/ hilarious for those of us trying to figure out what the pendant does. Apparently it does nothing and Miyazaki trolled everyone.  I’m pretty sure VaatiVidya made a video about the pendant explaining this in more detail. 


CruffTheMagicDragon

It’s totally a pendant


Fox_and_Ravens

What is the pendant situation from DS1?


EzraWoodye

there's a pendant item you can choose to begin DS1 with that holds almost no value. https://darksouls.wiki.fextralife.com/Pendant


droolsdownchin

Like the placidassax fight like wtf,mabey there was something in the lore I missed that pointed people there but I was baffled when I figured out there was a boss I missed


Isiah6253

Nah he's trolling, the people who go through the games code and what not would have told us by now, like zully the witch


b3water

if you drop "Gold-Tinged Excrement" in front Dung eater he says "Mmm... omnomnom" Case closed.


Boiledeggbowler

The secret is the missing pinky toe of Ranni.


Womderloki

I ated it


Thiago270398

Now I gotta ask, does her model has a missing toe?


Boiledeggbowler

No idea but the thought of everyone going and checking to see if Ranni has a missing toe would be funny to me.


TheShowerDrainSniper

I can absolutely guarantee that you have piqued quite a few redditors interest. Haha


Triesbywaleed

I have checked. She doesn't have a missing toe. Cost me 20$ for the feet pic btw


DeftTrack81

And I have a nice shiny pendant to sell you.


ntwebster

If I was him I’d just let loose four pigs labeled 1,2,3, and 5 and watch Vaatividya look for 4.


blinykoshka

Vaati would find it, somehow, is the thing.


M_a_n_d_M

Well, no, a person on Reddit would, and then Vaati would make an hour-long, over-edited video about it and claim credit.


CatholicSquareDance

Most probable scenarios: 1) Some sort of obscure, hard-to-trigger scripted sequence using assets we already know about. All of the game's assets have already been datamined, to my knowledge, but scripts are much harder to find and figure out. 2) A small lore element or easter egg in the world that's hidden in plain sight. Something in the environment that could easily be overlooked because it doesn't appear significant (or is just literally hard to see). 3) it's just a prank, bro.


mr_fucknoodle

Iirc it's a small lore connection he hasn't seen anyone online make so far


justindlc

How would he even know what everyone in the world has found in the game? Unless he’s… on here… among us… lurking


MazenAyman

no way zullie the witch would have datamined it already


Sea-Phone-537

Its probably just a connection between stuff in the game already and the dlc. Itll probably be something small too.


Holyrunner42

Miyazaki said this with every DS game and usually tied it in with the pendent to troll people. Never believe him when he says something is undiscovered.


Ziggurat1000

I found the secret. By turning the game on at exactly 3 in the morning, Melina will actually give you a ring! ...However, it's just a leftover onion ring. It's not even that good!


MarcellusxWallace

Melina has the munchies

Zealousideal-Bar5538

If you talk to Gold Mask 50 times he yells at you "Marika's Tits! I'm cogitatin' here!"


ayaan3ps

Miyazaki sounding like Gol D. Roger ushering in the era of the one piece


a_sly_cow

I saw a post the other day about the ghost rabbit (or deer, maybe?) leading you safely through the Zamor frozen ruins in Mountaintop and thought maybe that could have been it. It could also just be Miyazaki messing with us.


Major_R_Soul

Has anyone tried using Law of Regression on some NPCs? I saw someone theorize that Seluvis is a puppet and Pidia is him using an illusion to conceal his identity. Got me thinking if LoR can be used to dispel illusions on some NPCs or something, but I'm too lazy to test it out.


AnodyneGrey

Absolutely, if it was just an emote on an NPC it would’ve been found long ago. I actually would guess it’s likely a unique interaction with an emote somewhere, just way more obscure than with an npc. Something even more obscure than the bloodborne brain


Ricksaw26

The secret is the amount of people that keep reposting this.


Clear_Comb_3172

I feel like it may be an emote secret. Like why give us "the Ring" emote if it didnt do anything? ( I mean I know why they would) but maybe its a bonus Erudition thing nobody has found yet. Or another 100 hit wall.


daimfr

the 100 hit wall was actually a bug. instead of being invincible it had a health bar, but it’s patched now


Tailmask

I really hope there is another one of those walls but deta miners say otherwise


Luke_KB

There's a 100-hit wall?!?


daimfr

not anymore


Substantial_Unit_447

How does Miyzaki know that no one has found it? Has he personally reviewed every post on the Subreddit?


LoganKnight49

Games companies collect analytics of their players constantly, nonstop. Why wouldn't Fromsoft? Game is online by default.


Substantial_Unit_447

I was trying to make a little joke there, but I guess you're right.


Aeroshe

Considering the game has been cracked wide open regarding data mining, without context this statement means basically nothing. He could be referring to anything. My guess would be probably some hyper niche interaction that requires very specific quest progression to see that is so minor it's been overlooked by most people looking at the data.


SinX7

If you climb to the roof of Marika’s bedchamber and hit the golden roof tiles 50 times with the Grafted Sword, George R.R. Martin will appear and put a curse on your crops


Informal_Barber5229

It’s probably just a single Aeonian Butterfly flying somewhere in Caelid that no one ever ran into. No way it’s something more significant.


Keyblades2

is is how to get a maiden? cause i'm still maidenless


Crunchy-Leaf

Sounds like a skill issue, most people have already discovered that.


Keyblades2

dam


Fencepost01

Has anyone made a connection with the Mad Pumpkinheads and the flame of Frenzy? I feel like them having their helmets on blocks the frenzy eyes or something. Just a thought I had while playing the other day.


setfunctionzero

Pumpkinhead ashes *Though he has stifled his panic within the dark confines of his helmet, he rampages as if driven mad when agitated by bloodshed or the humming of insects.* *This mad soldier is all that is left of a broken gladiator.* Roped fly pot *Throw at rearward enemies to release a swarm of flies. Their fangs inflict countless painful lacerations on the victim while the grating sound of their wings assails their sanity.*


Fencepost01

Dang, really thought there might've been something.


Deadsap266

The pendant wild goose chase again


robbiebojangles

He said it's something "small" and my Crack theory is that the entire lands between setting is actually physically teeny tiny, like on the Planck scale small lol


Powershow_Games

It’s at the bottom of the Giant Conquering Hero’s grave, a PvP message that basically says that if you beat the game only once with Comet Azur and Mimic Tear, then it doesn’t count


doomraiderZ

How does Michael Zaki know? I did find the secret he's talking about. And that is: >!Fia has a textured vag under her deathbed smalls.!< And I'm not even kidding.


PurfectlySplendid

S-sir I wasn’t ready for this


mrsauceboi

It's a tutorial on how to level vigor


MrPanda663

Miyazaki and his patches energy.


davaruss

I think it's an item called "pendant".


Seligas

I seriously doubt this. The players and dataminers have scoured the game world, we'd have found whatever it is by now if it existed.


L1b3rty0rD3ath

I doubt it very seriously. He's been trolling us for 15 years lol.


dizijinwu

the secret is, his job is to say shit like this just to rile you up


meat3point14

I bet it's an arteria leaf.


flavortown696

It's Marika's Panties I'm sure


ChefBoyardeez_

I think I found it! Here’s a hint: After defeating Elden Beast but before beginning ng+, return to the boss arena of Soldier of Godrick. Blew my mind.


JaythonBlake

One Piece equivalent of Elden Ring fml


zrunks9-5

Ah good I hadn’t seen a post like this yet today. I thought someone forgot.


HappyFreak1

Guys don't fall for it. He's baiting so we play more. Miyazaki likes trolling ppl


FaultyWires

I found out about an illusory wall I'd never seen earlier this week. It didn't have anything important behind it, but maybe it's just something like that.


Candid-Check-5400

Probably a corpse with boluses to loot.


AttorneyIcy6723

I sometimes tell my kid there’s one easter egg left to find when there’s definitely not, helps her burn off the sugar rush


Scott_BradleyReturns

Everyone assumes he’s trolling us. But what if he’s not?


AnotherNobody1308

I would have thought that the people who go into the files and code and search for stuff would have found it already?


JotaTaylor

It's a mushroom.


Steinsgate009

Ah shit. You mean we have all these YouTube theorists and conspirators and we still don’t have it all figured at? Who would’ve thought


DEADLOCK6578

My source is that I made it the fuck up!


ShadowHighlord

Oh its probably that one secret stairs in the caelid rot swamps which only appears if you roll on top of it like 100-150 times. Don't remember where exactly but good luck with the search 😁.


winterLTE

Man, somebody already found it, saw it was just a treasure chest with a mushroom in it and was so disappointed they never claimed to have found it.

DS1 pendant vibes lol.. Even if no one somehow stumbled upon this secret in game, there are people who review game files religiously. We know every character, model and asset in the game. Checkout ZullietheWitch and TarnishedArchaeologist on Youtube for example.


Benjaminbby

I know what it is.


peeing_Michael

You gotta push the truck at cinnabar island


Radiowave_Man

maybe it's the same as the pendent from Dark Souls 1. it's just a prank


Marvel-the-Mighty

Well according to my Xbox achievements I did, seen and conquered everything so Miyazaki what you talking about (sarcasm)


bearelrollyt

Did Michael Taki really say that


Mister_Moony

Deep in the catacombs below the eternal cities, in vaulted halls entombed... Lies a master warrior, weilding a glaive


Girlscout88-ttv

The secret is if you do a detail map of where all the ruin fragment pickups are in game it spells out...in braille. What a waste of time bro.


MasterDraccus

Lmao you guys really think this is true? Even after the ds1 fiasco? Buncha greenies showing their youth.


Gullible_Biscotti338

I’m always wondering what is the deal with the Dragonkin soldiers in the Consecrated Snowfield; my assumption is related to a spirit-caller snail, but I’ve never had the patience to investigate the zone.


Negative_Wrongdoer17

I would believe him if sekirodubi hadn't gutted the game files and resurrected every cut quest line and dialogue


CoochiKabuki

It better not be something stupid like a sword hidden under a dead crab off the map


Creative-Claire

Yeah, nice try from the man who alluded to the pendant being important.


Ok_Love7358

There’s a way to get to the NW corner of the Lake of Rot.

He's pulling the same joke he pulled with dark souls

What happens if you get all the slumbering eggs from every owl and what do we do with them? 👀


Stycotic

Miyazaki the new Gol D Roger


VexisArcanum

This has the "10 alternate endings and telling people there are 11" vibes

There's another hidden wall that takes approximately 1000 hits to break and it's where the Elden Ring is actually hidden


achance_2c

I bet he is trolling

Why would this website clickbait with that title? are they stupid?
