Part 11 - Bloodborne - Blind Let’s Play

[@ryanharber4512]

Holy shit! You parried the blood starved beast on second shot! Bosses are much harder to parry too! GG Notice the sound effects to let you know you parried. Way to go! Now keep it up. Awesome job. It’s a game changer and so satisfying!!!

Yes, I love the sound effect! The souls series always does a pretty great job with sound effects letting you understand what's happening. I think I have more confidence in the parry in Bloodborne since I don't have to stand in the range of being hit by the attack in order to do it. Thanks for the help!

24:13 Thank you for the shoutout, really glad that you are enjoying that series, though i would not go calling myself a souls veteran since i first played dark souls 1 last year in October. Honestly speaking parrying is currently my favorite thing to do in souls games since i never was a huge fan of rolling to activate I frames. While i have no experience in this game, there is a possibility that certain attacks from bosses might not be parriable like other souls games so keep a lookout for those and enjoy the glory days of Bloodborne and DS3 when parrying was a legitimate high risk high reward strategy.

It's my pleasure man, I am quite enjoying your monster Hunter LP. I think you are quite good for only playing souls for one year! The parrying is definitely extremely satisfying. Part of me laments that once you get extremely good at it, the bosses difficulty becomes kind of trivial, but it's balanced by the fact that it's really hard and risky to get used to.

Good to see you started to figure out the parry mechanics. I just started my newgame + because Ive been watching. Its way more fun this playthrough now i know how everything operates.

Yeah I bet it's great knowing what you're doing! My first FromSoftware game was Demon's Souls and I literally got stuck on the final boss and couldn't beat it my first time through haha. The parry is really cool when you can nail it 🙌
