Walk up and the lore written on it is āHere Sir Lionel did battle with Godrick, heir of the Golden Lineage, and did thoroughly dunk on his ass lol,ā or some shit.
There's also the Hill of Swords in Berserk, which I always thought were used as inspiration for Elden Ring. The Norwegian swords in the pic also look very similar to some of those in Elden Ring!
If Miyazaki knows the true origin of statues like these he found that out after he saw them in berserk.
Nobody can deny the influence of berserk in the series.
There is tons of Norse mythology and symbolism referenced in Elden Ring, (including everything from the Erdtree itself to runes and tons inbetween). Not everything is a Beserk reference.
There's even the option that it's both at the same time. Also, Berserk took from Norse myths. On top of that, artists often try to seek the inspiration behind their inspiration so From Soft might have reached for Norse myths because they inspired Berserk first.
Beserk does indeed have a lot of Norse mythology and imagery in it, including the World Spiral Tree etc, so it could be a combination for sure. But the look of these and the function that they serve in game I think definitely ties closer to Sverd I fjell. The idea that the art directors didn't find an image of these during their research feels unlikely to me.
Oh and someone said āgreetingsā when I spoke to them in Elden ring, that must also come from Berserk. Also when you ride torrent, got to be based on that horse in Berserk, donāt even get me started on how most characters in Elden ring have hands and feet, you know which characters also have hands and feet? Thatās right the ones in Berserk! Ancient cultures like the Norse and Celtic speaking peoples mustāve been sat down reading Berserk a thousand years ago for them to get such tales and stories in their beliefsā¦
It's more likely that berserk was influenced by real history too, so whether or not the reference in the game is from berserk or real life doesn't even matter

Elden Ring marketing is just insane
Like yellow trees during autumn. So much commitment, just incredible š±
IRL easter egg wow this game is so massive
You sure thatās not a statue commemorating the first time the sculptor beat Elden ring?
Sculptor mentioned š„upgraded shinobi prosthetic time
Need a banana for scale
B-b-but muh Berk!
Aww man, wish I knew about this before. Went on vacation to Norway last year and totally could have visited this.
Where did you go? This is in Stavanger
Stayed in a bunch of different places in the Southern part of the country, so definitely could have gone through there.
Woah no way they made Limgrave into a real place?!
I always thought there had to be something else with the swords in the game...something hidden but apparently not.
Berserk drones in shambles
Made in 1983 btw
Not totally sure why this was deleted? Seemed like a pretty cool reference to share to me.
Can confirm. They are called sverdi fjell. Lovely translates to mountain of swords and are to commemorate the battle that unified Norway
Sword in mountain.
Walk up and the lore written on it is āHere Sir Lionel did battle with Godrick, heir of the Golden Lineage, and did thoroughly dunk on his ass lol,ā or some shit.
Amazing.
The real DLC was here all along!
Ah yes from the time giants ruled the land of Norway.
I can't quite figure out if these are 5 ft tall or 500. Can someone help my brain scale this?
yes, it have been said for two uears already

Berserk fans trying not to compare every single detail in Elden ring to Berserk challenge: impossible.
If Miyazaki knows the true origin of statues like these he found that out after he saw them in berserk. Nobody can deny the influence of berserk in the series.

I think these look more like the ones in the game than the hill of swords, and also is in commemoration of a battle.

Bro use ockhams razor. Did you even consider ockhams razor?

Next you'll tell me that Berserk invented the concept of a big sword, or winged helmets, or sexual assault.

Jesus Christ not everything is a berserk reference.
Haha yeah, I'm still working on learning Norwegian
