[@SirZelean]

@@IskandarTheWack That is a good point, but I think I need to clarify myself. What I mean is that when someone first starts playing the Soulsbourne games, there are those who die twice to Ornstein and Smough, and there are those who die a couple dozen times to the Asylum Demon. There are those who ragequit when they die a few times and try again a few weeks later, and there are those who keep on trudging forward no matter how much they failed. Sure, the former might be a more skilled player, might finish the game in one hour, and be the l33t k1ng 0f pvp, but to be honest, the later player deserves more admiration. The theme of the Soulsbourne games (more of the Souls, honestly) is not about being a naturally skilled player. It's about persistence, never giving up. The ideal traits of the Chosen Undead aren't necessarily present in the first example of a player, but they 100% sure are there in the second one.

He struggled pretty much with the first hours of the game, he really disliked Dark Souls 1, but Bloodborne interested him a bit more. It wasn't on the Cleric Beast, but after some hours he started to learn how to make the combat easier, and, if i remember well in the path to the Hemwick area, he said "now i'm starting to understand why people like this, it isn't insanely hard, i'm learning now".

[@Bones_]

Honestly learning to run past enemies and on a more technical level figuring out enemy leashing is actually one of the biggest things you can learn in souls games. Killing all enemies is really only done for three things: unhindered thorough exploration, checking to see what goodies you can get, and farming. If you're just trying to progress and you're there's an area of relative safety beyond some enemies, there's little reason to not run right past them. I had some friends who were both very familiar with games give up on Bloodborne after not being able to get through Central Yharnam. I also love the troll is both literal and figurative, as he has back turned and is fixed when you approach him, but if you ignore him and continue past only then will he roam and wander into you after you convinced yourself he wasn't an active threat.

[@glitchydoll]

Yeah, but i find it extremely satisfying to kill every enemy. Just walking through bloodborne with every enemy dead is one of the most eerie things. Plus, you quickly build up resources. Chances are, if you’re semi good, you’ll always get your stuff back. Unlike dark souls, this game encourages that type of thing. Plus, if you get lucky, you’ll get blood stone shards or twin shards from hard enemies. It really rewards killing large amounts of enemies.

[@noop9k]

Running only works after you know where to run. Running in random direction typically punishes you with loss of souls.

@@noop9k I mean, it’s bloodborne. The only areas you could possibly get lost in are the forest and MAAYBE nightmare of mensis.

[@Bones_]

@@noop9k I would partially agree with that. You don't have to have completely conquered an area to run through parts of it. What I'm specifically referring to is the tendency by a lot of first time players that I've seen to try to kill every enemy in any area before being able to move on, when really you can run through different sections of an area to get to where you left off when you died. Running around without any experience in an area will likely not end well though.

[@noop9k]

@@glitchydoll Please, for a noob it takes many tries to remember even a single ambush. If you just run you will run into strong enemies and will be ambushed. Enemies in BB are not as relentless at chasing you as most DS1 enemies but still deadly enough if you don’t expect them. *MAYBE* nightmare of mensis? Seriously??

[@chaoticpenguin1498]

I’m so happy she finally got Cleric Beast! And with the boss having more health due to the summon too? That’s frickin awesome! I always forget I can summon Papa Guacamole. Like I literally just killed Cleric Beast on NG+ so I’m kinda sad I didn’t think to do that lol. I really wanna try that since he’s one of my favorite characters.

i tried to divide and conquer, it worked once, every other time i ended up getting ganged up on anyways, then i tried just running past all of them, and it became my standard in that area, until i saw someone on YT do it so flawlessly i started to just slaughter all of them, parrying enemies and visceral them gives me so much satisfaction

The most fascinating thing about these videos is seeing how much From assumes you know basic mechanics and concepts in games to play. Like any gamer will click on everything at first to obtain weapons and attempt to kill enemies

[@josephinejekyl5848]

There's nothing quite like the euphoria of defeating a boss that's been causing you grief. My hands have shaken many a time in this game 😵

[@philipbenhardb.velasco369]

Am so happy for you guys! First, well more like my 4th playthrough in bloodborne i gave up when i had to fight the cleric beast. For 2 years it was sitting idly. Then i decided to give it another go. every mastery of a section gave me confidence and bloodlust. Hardest boss in the game turned out to be was self defeat. Quite nostalgic feeling watching the cries of utter victory in dire situations

[@Guzghash]

Dude! I watched the video without blinking an eye just to realize at the end that you only have 3k subscribers!!! I expected to see at least 400k man! Congrats on the amazing content and a happy birthday to this brave huntress!! That was some impressive slashing there at the end!

[@tyfaspo]

My very first game on ps4 was Bloodborne and I have never used a controller before. This video reminded me of a learning process that I had faced long ago, this felt very nostalgic for me. 24:51 is exact what happened to me in my first hour, my cane broke, so I restarted the whole game. The frustration that I have can't be described. Thank you for this video, it was very nostalgic for me. sorry in advance for every mistake I have done.

[@dejism]

29:50 I remember the same thing happening to me when I fought the cleric beast. I feel like the game is actually designed to make that moment so epic at this point. you run out of blood viles but the beast is so low. You dash in and trade blow for blow like a mighty gladiator ignoring all safety as your opponent finally falls and you are the last standing. you put your controller down and raise your arms in victory, the gesture controls kicking in making your character do a victory pose as well.

[@kidathealt]

The accent (I'm American), mixed with the reactions, and the gameplay really makes these videos for me. I'm obsessed. I'm an avid gamer, but feel her frustration so personally when it comes to Soulsborne games, as I love open-world RPGs. I hope to see more of these in the future! Even if they aren't this specific genre of games.

[@gtortilla]

Damn this was good :D I even got teary eyed at the grand finale with Cleric Beast. Really took me back to my first hours with BB.

[@RegalPixelKing]

I feel like she might like Sekiro. It has a sneak mechanic, jumping, a much for straight forward story and progression when it comes to stats, no real gear or weapons to worry about, and it over all is a much more streamlined experience. I personally prefer all the numbers and whatnot from Dark Souls and Bloodborne, but Sekiro is maybe a better starting game. As a side note, it is true that Bloodborne has the worst healing system in any the Soulsborne game, it combines the worst aspects of Demon's Souls and Dark Souls into one really annoying and shitty system. Running out of blood vials does force you to grind if you don't want to lose your fighting chance because you can no longer heal up, but you can't stock up on them in excess if you do choose to grind because they cap at 20. To make things worse you can't buy them early on without wasting your blood echoes because you need to save though for leveling up and upgrading your weapons.

[@archermon373]

[@filipecordeiro7109]

the saying, be careful what you wish for because you just might get it never held more truth than now lol

[@joshuaseagondollar2495]

Actually you can stock up on excess. Any excess blood vials, quicksilver bullets, or other items over the maximum get sent to the storage and are replenished when you die or go to the Hunter's Dream.

[@RegalPixelKing]

@@joshuaseagondollar2495 I know that. But unlike Demon's Souls you can only hold a max of 20 vials. Sure you could be OP if you could hold over 20 vials, but the problem is the health system in Bloodborne is fundamentally broken and basically designed to be annoying. It should have been like Dark Souls which already perfected the healing system, where you have a set number of healing items every time you die and they always come back.

[@joshuaseagondollar2495]

@@RegalPixelKing You actually can inrease the cap on blood vials and quicksilver bullets. I think it requires runes or some kind of weapon upgrade though. I get your point though.

[@chewie1498]

There are three different reactions to the cleric beast scream, "Yeah, no. I'm going home" "Okay, gotta be careful" And of course, "I'll be back, just gotta RIP AND TEAR!"

Fun fact if you kill gascoigne first you can summon a different character at a different place that appears near the house to help with the cleric beast instead

Her absolute cry of triumph after defeating the boss was so damn satisfying, especially after hearing the emotional beatdown she'd taken leading up to it from the punishing game system. Loved it.

[@DStrormer]

The classic response of a gamer's heart, "this shit will not beat me." Way to kick ass, girl!

[@mykr0324]

Bloodborne is the cream of the crop. So good. Makes me wanna play it again. I had ds 1,2 and 3 experience and was someone who basically always two handed and never used shields, so it felt pretty comfortable at that point. I got my ass handed to me numerous times too. I'd have hated to play this as someone with no experience or someone who relies on shields.
