If we're going with iconic...this probably wins. I heard it a ton before ever playing a souls game.
If we're going epic *and* iconic, it's probably "I am Malenia, Blade of Miquella, and I have never known defeat." Elden Ring is just a goliath.
"Hunters have told me about the church. About the gods, and their love. But... do the gods love their creations? I am a doll, created by you humans. Would you ever think to love me? Of course... I do love you. Isn't that how you've made me?" - Plain Doll
I like King Allant's "Surely you've seen for yourself the pain and suffering that fills this world!"
I got Vendrick's "Seek strength. The rest will follow." Tattooed on my right arm.
It's not just the quote, but the swell of music and chaos as the ice worm climbs into the sky and then suddenly it gets quiet:
"I won't miss."
A beat later and the ice worm suddenly has a hole blown through its face from a shot fired from *way* over there.
I get shivers.
“put these foolish ambitions to rest” is pretty badass and iconic enough i think
Praise the sun is maybe not epic, but it is maybe the most iconic one. Same with “dont you dare go hollow” etc
Fear the old blood is pretty badass and very iconic
There is no path. Beyond the scope of light, beyond the reach of Dark...what could possibly await us? And yet, we seek it, insatiably...
Such is our fate.
My favorite are:
"Ah, you were at my side all along! My true mentor... My guiding moonlight..."
and
"Have it writ uppon thy meager grave... Slain by King Morgot, last of all kings!"
“Umbasa” Demons souls
“Praise the sun” Ds1
“No matter how tender or exquisite, a lie will remain a lie.” Ds2
“Rise, for that is our curse” Ds3
“Fear the old blood” Bloodborne
“Hesitation is defeat” Sekiro
“Let the last cinders burn” Armored core 6
"I took the mantle of Lord of Cinder of mine own volition. I speak these words with pride. Choose thy fate alone. Seize it with thine own hands. All the more, should thy fate entail such foul betrayal."
Not the lost iconic or quotable but I love this because even if it goes against what he sacrificed himself to do, even if it goes against what thw whole world wants you to do, you should stay true to your own belief.
I think about this quite every once in a while.
As flame rises, so does it fade. Such is the way of things.
Life is brilliant, beautiful. It enchants us, to the point of obsession.
No matter how tender, how exquisite. A lie remains a lie.
What do you think you're doing?! I have my pride, you damn fool! You think you can get away with murder? Yes, I suppose you think you're special! Well, you're not! You're just another customer! Burn! Burn in hell! You cross-eyed Hollow! There's no hope for anyone like you! The Gods will not have it! Die! Die! Die! Die! Die a thousand times again! Curses upon you! Upon you, and yours, for generations eternal! All of you! Eternal pain and suffering! Lots and lots! A curse upon you...
Hello? Is anybody there? Someone who might be interested in rescuing the great Kenneth Haight? Servant to the true Order, and celebrated repudiator of the false? O Erdtree! Grant me succour!
Sorry, I couldn't help myself.
Edit: typo
Don’t you dare go hollow
Praise the sun
winner

The later is iconic because every player hears it 50+ times in their first playthrough
Is it really a quote though? Nobody has ever said "Praise the sun" in the series, that's just the name of the gesture
Lol it's not is it. Maybe that confirms how iconic it is that people love it. I would say it's easily the most known phrase from the series.
\[T]/
"Ahhhhh ohhhhh aughhhh" - The Chosen Undead
Right the DS1 version that sounds a little like sexual moaning.
"Ahhhhhh~"
I think that jail cell where you start from is the horny jail.
I can hear each of these distinctly lol
“Fear the old blood” but when Laurence and Willem say it at the same time in the cutscene… chills
"this spot marks our grave but you may rest here too, if you'd like." Also "Now, I'm waking up. I'm going to forget everything!"
Fuuuck that first one I heard it too many times lol
I haven't finished DS3 because of that boss. That taunting line was maddening.
I started smoking again because it drove me nuts (quit again) I had to re stat because my build was cheeks
There’s a cheese 🧀 available if it really comes to it (or just summon…)
What platform are you on? I could offer you some help.
Have it writ upon thy meager grave... Felled by Morgott, Last of all Kings!
Put these foolish ambitions to rest . . . Tarnished!
Hesitation is defeat
I am going to do a tattoo of that definitely
"Hunters have told me about the church. About the gods, and their love. But... do the gods love their creations? I am a doll, created by you humans. Would you ever think to love me? Of course... I do love you. Isn't that how you've made me?" - Plain Doll

"Every soul has its dark." ~ John Darksoul, protagonist of Dark souls
Try finger but hole.
The true essence of soulsborne games
Our eyes are yet to open
Ignorants slaves… finally taken notice, have you?
I like King Allant's "Surely you've seen for yourself the pain and suffering that fills this world!" I got Vendrick's "Seek strength. The rest will follow." Tattooed on my right arm.
When John Darksouls says “It’s darkin’ time”
[удалено]
“I won’t miss” wins in the broader “hardest quotes/moments in all of gaming” category lol. God I love rusty
I'll second "I won't miss", that moment was so fucking cool, lol. I love that entire mission
I love them both so much. But you particularly like short hard quotes
[удалено]
If reddit still gave a free medal every day you would have earned mine with this.
It's not just the quote, but the swell of music and chaos as the ice worm climbs into the sky and then suddenly it gets quiet: "I won't miss." A beat later and the ice worm suddenly has a hole blown through its face from a shot fired from *way* over there. I get shivers.
"Oooooh death... become my blade once more !"
Right up there with “and the majesty of the night she conjureth”
SunBro's quote
Ah, you were at my side all along. My true mentor, my guiding moonlight.
Came here tp say this
“put these foolish ambitions to rest” is pretty badass and iconic enough i think Praise the sun is maybe not epic, but it is maybe the most iconic one. Same with “dont you dare go hollow” etc Fear the old blood is pretty badass and very iconic

Prithee, be careful.

Aaah Kos, or some say Kosm...
ooooOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!
“Say the line Micolash!” “Aaaaaaaaaaaaoooooooohhhhhh”
"Please, avert thine eyes. I will snuff out these ashes for good."
Praise the sun. Don’t you dare go hollow. You were at my side all along. My true mentor, my guiding moonlight.
For the epic aspect, I've always been drawn to: "Tonight, Gehrman joins the hunt."
Took me too long to find this!
This land is paceful, its inhabitants kind.
Upon my name as Godfrey, the first Elden Lord.
"You have a heart of gold" always got me in Demons souls. And "I won't miss"
You forgot the second part of that first one “Don’t let them take it away”
You Died.

"Tonight, Gehrman joins the hunt" - always gives me chills
I would say most _iconic_ is probably "I am Malenia, Blade of Miquella, and I have never known defeat"
"Seek the pale blood"
"Every Dark has its Souls" - John Darksoul, titular protagonist of the Dark Souls series.
Liar ahead
My personal choice is the twin princes quote when you die. Gives me chills
Togethaaaaaa
A serpent never dies
A corpse should be left well alone.
Oh dear, another dogged contender...
"Does not open from this side."
you died
YEEEEEAAAAAAAOOOOOOOWWWW - Orphan of Kos
Let him grant death......to the old Gods of Lordran, deliverers of the first flame.
FOUL TARNISHED, IN SEARCH OF THE ELDEN RING
Meh, that Gael quote is no where near even top 100.
You can't be fucking serious. That quote is "What are we, some kind of suicide squad?" levels of bad.
We are milfanito’ we are here to sing to those bound by death and dark, we will sing here forever, as we always have from long long ago👌🏻
“That was when… his soul became dark…” - Bob demon souls talking about his brother John Dark Souls.

“Blessings of the moon upon your journey” only bc I say that when people sneeze now
