Elden Ring Fan Spots Funny Tribute to Godfrey Inside a Gym

Highlights

  • Godfrey, First Elden Lord’s gym tribute offers motivation for weightlifters seeking a personal best in the face of struggle.
  • The detailed image drawn on a whiteboard features quotes tweaked to fit weightlifting as motivation.
  • Elden Ring‘s challenging boss battles teach patience and perseverance, traits necessary for progress in both the game and the gym.

As a seasoned Elden Ring player and avid weightlifter, I can’t help but feel an unusual sense of camaraderie with my fellow gym-goers who share this unique passion for conquering formidable adversaries, be they bosses from Elden Ring or personal bests on the squat rack. The tribute to Godfrey, First Elden Lord, in our local gym is a testament to how games like Elden Ring can transcend digital boundaries and inspire us in real life.


A local gym has featured a dedication to the Elden Ring’s formidable boss, Godfrey, the First Elden Lord, aimed at inspiring weightlifters aiming to break their personal records. While Elden Ring players lack motivation during tough boss fights, needing to battle, fall, and start again until victory over the behemoth is secured, the wisdom of Godfrey has positively impacted athletes.

Fans of Soulslike games have plenty to look forward to this year, with the summer launch of FromSoftware’s Shadow of the Erdtree DLC and Game Science’s highly anticipated title, Black Myth: Wukong, slated for release at the end of August. The success of Elden Ring following its expansion pack release is a clear indication of the game’s enduring popularity and the developers’ commitment to offering substantial extra content to maintain player engagement.

On the Elden Ring subreddit, a user named Kolket posted an image of a gym’s whiteboard that had been drawn on with blue ink, showcasing a detailed depiction of Godfrey from Elden Ring. Since Godfrey doesn’t wield his sword during combat in Elden Ring, the sketch instead portrays him holding the Colossal Weapon, the Axe of Godfrey. The weight “200kg” is written on the blade of the weapon. Additionally, one of the boss’ famous quotes, “Thy Strength Befits a Crown,” was included with the drawing. This quote serves as an inspiring reminder for athletes and weightlifters when they are lifting heavy objects.

Elden Ring’s Godfrey Motivates Weight Lifters At The Gym

The fans of Elden Ring quickly recognized the joke in the sketch and humorously responded with “Tarnished weightlifter. Rejected by the grace of muscles.” Furthermore, the artwork on the whiteboard was labeled “Elden Gym by @anastasia_seagull,” a reference to the concept artist’s Instagram account, renowned for their work in Disco Elysium. One fan praised the artist’s skills, saying “Your artistic abilities are fit for royalty,” leading another user to attribute the artwork to them.

1. Godfrey, the First Elden Lord, is a two-part Legendary Boss found in Leyndell within the Ashen Capital. Once it sustains 60% damage, it morphs into Hoarah Loux, the Warrior. Overcoming Godfrey demands skillful close combat, quick dodging, and an unending supply of patience from players – a common requirement for most enemies in Elden Ring. A fan who posted a drawing of Godfrey from the gym quipped “Someone had too much time on their hands,” but the artwork was still quite impressive.

Expanding on this, Godfrey’s lion spirit Serosh carries a storied past, yet the concept can be likened to the fierce spirits that athletes embody in the gym setting. The persistence, endurance, and resilience needed to advance in the gym are qualities that parallel Elden Ring players, who exhibit similar dedication and perseverance in confronting one of the most challenging games ever created.
