When I got killed by a snatcher and went to the Hypogean Gaol for the first time, the music was probably the scariest thing in the game. Taken to an unknown place, not knowing if you can get out (before finding the lamp), and just having ominous choir music in the background was absolutely terrifying.

I feel bad for everyone who didn't play it around release. The lovecraftian stuff was absolutely NOT obvious from the trailer, marketing, box art and first few hours of the game. Everyone expected werewolves and vampires in a classic gothic setting. But as you played you got the feeling that *something* was off until you get the big reveal. Didn't take long until this was common knowledge even among people who never played it so now "lovecraftian" is tied to this games mythos but that was originally NOT the case.

The problem is that Rom wasn’t really fixing anything. She was a band-aid solution that didn’t address the root of the problem, just kept all the eldritch hidden from plain view.

Killing Rom was necessary to enter and end the Nightmare of Mensis, putting Mergo to rest and allowing the sun to rise over Yharnam once again.

For me Elden Ring is my unique experience despite playing every souls game except Sekiro (still want to play it though) bloodborne was also my first fromsoft game and my god my friends must've hated me durring my first playthrough because i was a whining, complaining, bratty 14yo that constantly said "the game should be easier! Add more checkpoints!" Because i was use to much easier games until then. Now that i have well over 1000 hours of experience under my belt in both PvE and PvP in Ds3 BB and a bit of DS1 and even less of DS2 i was ready for elden ring and my god... I'm the type of gamer that likes to just stand there and look at something for a while and i can say i spent a good 10 minutes looking around the first step in awe of how beautiful it was, it brought back that feeling i got as a kid when i played a new game on my birthday, no other fromsoft game has came close to making me feel that way upon first playing it. Even now i still just look around and soak in the feeling of each area in elden ring despite beating the game once (not enough in my opinion) and having 200 hours in it i STILL just sit down and look at the BEEG tree and the gianw structures dotted acroe the map. Elden Ring already has a special place in my heart just for those things alone.

One of the greatest lore-implications in Bloodboorne (and all of gaming) to me is the existence of the different chalices. You don't only have the Pthumeru chalices, but also the Loran and Isz chalices. This implies that the tragedy of Yarnham has happened to multiple societies before and adds to the cosmic horror that by uncovering the eldritch truth society eventually falls. It happened with the Pthumerians, it happened in Loran, in Isz and now in Yarnham.

I picked up Bloodborne maybe 5-6 years ago but quickly shelved it since I couldn't for the life of me clear the first boss. All the recent Elden Ring talk prompted me to start making another go of it a couple of weeks ago with some 3rd-party guidance on the combat mechanics. Going into it with a better understanding of visceral attacks and weapon transformation made such a huge difference, it's still brutal but the difficulty feels a lot more fair now and it scales really well to your progress so it's always doable but uncomfortable. Like in the witches coven you face a couple of those brick ogres just to remind you of how much progress you've made since the start when you thought they were terrifying to deal with - and then the game tells you that's not worth shit by immediately throwing a new type of ogre at you that's nowhere near as forgiving. The way the whole world links back on itself is legitimately incredible too. I can't see myself playing it tens of times over like some people have (cosmic horror just doesn't interest me that much) but I wish the "tutorial" was a little less obtuse because figuring those elements out was really what was holding me back on 'getting it' years earlier. Thanks for attending my TED Talk.

I started playing Bloodborne a few weeks ago and it's been amazing. I've had fun, I'm engrossed in the lore and story, and I really kinda suck at the game. I work a full-time job, I have a wife and kids, I own a side business, I'm involved in my church, and I simply don't have the time to invest in playing a game that I did 10 years ago. I don't game a lot and I chose one of the hardest games to get back in on and I have loved my failures. I like it doesn't hold my hand. I like that it let's me fail on my own so I can learn on my own so I can succeed on my own. It's very rewarding. Thanks Ghost for making this video and giving me the itch to play it. I'm in your debt brother.

This was my first, and still favorite so far, Soulsborne game. I love the faster movement, the more aggressive fights, the rally mechanic, and most of all, the trick weapons. There may only be 20 or so, but they all feel so different and awesome. I love how they all have their own move sets, with cool transformations and animations. The idea is just so cool, I wish more games would use it. I especially love weapons like the Rakuyo, Burial Blade, Threaded Cane, and Simon's Bowblade, simply for the uniqueness of their transformations and the difference between each of their modes. The Threaded Cane going from essentially being a short sword to a bladed whip is fantastic, even if it takes longer to swing as a whip. The Rakuyo is less crazy than the others I've mentioned, but it's still cool how you pull a dagger out of the hilt and gain a sick spin slash.

The thing about the low weapon count in bloodborne is that, yes, there might be only one or two greatswords, but those greatswords have the best moveset of any greatsword in any Fromsoft game. The Burial Blade is hilarious in how superior it is to any scythe the Dark Souls games or even Elden Ring have ever offered. Bloodborne doesn't need more than a few of each weapon type, because it does those few weapons better than the hundreds of weapons the other games offered us.

@@thememeilator2633 friede's great scythe has a good weapon art, but the base moveset is the same boring scythe moveset that all dark souls games have, and the weapon art does lower damage than the base moveset too.

As for Ludwig's being the only weapon worth using, I'd introduce you to Hunter's Axe and Saw Cleaver, both very popular and 100% viable in any part of the game. Edit: I'd even go so far as to say the Same Cleaver has the perfect balance of good moveset, good base damage, and decent scaling, making it possibly the most well-rounded weapon. Some may argue the Saw Spear is better because of thrust damage though.

I love bloodborne despite never having a chance to play it. It is my favorite souls game. Everything from the gameplay to lore to the gothic setting to the progression of the night to the eldritch and cosmic horror this game is fantastic. Also, I love how there is no good ending to the game, as iis rather subjective and comes down to what character wants out of the world. If you just want to do your contract and be cured of your disease, which is your character's motivation then submit to Gerhman at the end and that is all. Want to become a Great One? Then go through the collect the umbilical cords and defeat the secret boss at the end and then you get your wish though if you failed to due this the ending where you take Gerhman's place instead could be argued as the actual bad ending (though if it was what your character /player wanted then it is your good ending). This is definitely From Software's best game to date though that might change depending on how good Armored Core 6 is. Which speaking of and if anyone is reading this, I highly recommend them as they play similar to souls.

What really grew on me, as I played Bloodborne, was that the "inhabitants" of Yharnam really thought of me, the player, as the monster. I had this feeling that I was the one intruding upon their home, and they thought of ME as the beast, for coming in there and slaughtering their entire town - and that they were just defending their home.. I don't know if that's the case at all, and I may have worded that somewhat awkwardly, but that feeling added another really unsettling dimension to this stellar game.

Bloodborne will probably forever live as my favourite FromSoft game. I tried DS1 and played hiding behind my shield poking things with a spear and I found it a chore and just not that fun so I dropped it. I was passive and the game was slow and kinda boring. Then I got my PS4 with Bloodborne as my first game. And I fell in love with it. My DS1 experience was all reactive, sit behind shield until it's safe poke them with stick, rinse and repeat. Bloodborne forced me to be more interactive and proactive. I stayed cautious at first but soon it became 'find my opening, rush in and attack as much as I could, retreat to recover stamina and/or health, rush in again' and it was even better if I got hit because now instead of running away and killing the tempo of the encounter I was rushing in and increasing the tempo. I was trading blows with my enemy almost daring them to kill me before I killed them. And then I went back to DS1 and in memory of my beloved kirkhammer and that exploding hammer whose name I forgot I decided to pick the biggest weapons I could find and flatten DS1 enemies like pancakes. And I bloody loved it. DS2 and DS3 went much the same way. The only time I 'used' a shield was for the passive stamina recovery boost. It just stayed on my back almost completely unused for its primary purpose. Unlike my first go at the game, now I was deciding the tempo of my fights (to an extent obviously, I wasn't going gung go against every boss). Once again I was daring the enemies to kill me before I killed them. If I took a hit, I could heal later, better finish them off first. Which, just as an aside, almost always preferable to heal when there isn't something actively swinging at you unless you're one hit from death. Hbomberguy does a great video on Bloodborne and the one thing I think he's objectively correct about is that Bloodborne teaches you how to have the most fun with the Souls series. Minus Sekiro, which is a big part of why I hate that game despite me also thinking it's a masterpiece.
@Morindor2 жыл бұрын
At least with the combat part you described all of their titles. Thinking back on DS3, I did not struggle with bosses that were hyped as hard and I was completely destroyed by others for days on end. And the build that you have plays a major role in that but also your skill. To my shame I never mastered Parry, not in Dark Souls, not in Elden Ring now. I finish their games without Parrying while mainly having melee builds that could also incorporate shields. And that made some bosses be extra hard for me but that only meant I had to adapt in a different way and master rolling and restraint when attacking to take them down, valuable lessons which helped me further into the games.

I think Bloodborne was like a 92.5% or 93% score for me personally, up there easily as one of my top ten games ever and pretty damn close to being in the pantheon of genuine works of art and masterpieces within the medium....UNTIL the DLC came out. The Old Hunters legitimately elevated the game to me so magnificently, it raised it above and beyond basically anything I've ever played barring perhaps Dark Souls 1 and the initial MGS trilogy (especially 2). I'd say my score shot up to around 96% over the years, essentially tied first with a couple of other games as my favorite video game of all time, period. All the reasons you go through in this video obviously encapsulate the reasons why it's such a special work, how the narrative, lore, delectable atmosphere, and weighty themes and concepts all come together to formulate such a rich, interwoven experience that has such beauty in its abstraction and ambiguity, yet refinement and detail in its worldbuilding, descriptive storytelling and visual and environmental nuance. And that's not even mentioning the characterization and history, and even the poetry and subtlety of a lot of the minimalist yet substantive writing! Bloodborne is just so uniquely brilliant in what it does, and how it takes Lovecraftian themes and mixes them in with the Soulsian concepts Miyazaki and From had already been evolving, and fused them together to reach greater heights. I think The Old Hunters ties so much together while still leaving a great deal open to that wonderful interpretive storytelling, and on a mechanical level it just took everything a step further with some of the most stunning bosses, areas, tone and level design From have ever done. Even the music is beautiful and eclectic, a great mix of many brilliant composers, capturing the world so wonderfully. It's just aesthetically so much better than it had any right to be, and even the more overt flaws and aspects I find a bit ambivalent, like the Chalice Dungeons, are still pretty damn great compared to so many other games over the last seven years since BB released (and before, obviously). Hell, I think the weapon criticism in your video actually isn't much of an issue at all, considering Dark Souls had weapon TYPES (like longswords or curved swords) while each Bloodborne weapon basically encompasses an entire type of weapon itself because of its complexity and the transformation gameplay in combat. Sure, I'd love more of them, but I think narrowing them down to really make each one more diverse and amazing to utilize was the right choice at the end of the day! I could write on the lore of the game for days, and I probably have over the years actually, I feel like I've basically written theses on the damn subject! There's just something about the story and its telling that is so immersive, so incredibly profound. Evolution, insight, incomprehensible knowledge and the pursuit of it at all costs, violence and its consequence, the nature of mankind and the relationship to the Great Ones and their own desires for progeny, the reconsideration of the Lovecraftian dynamic and what it really means, etc.. There's just SO MANY philosophical ideas and thematic points that the game's lore does such an impactful job of presenting, and making truly thought provoking. All this without beating any player over the head with any of it, so that if that's not your cup of tea, no problem, you can just enjoy the exquisite gameplay and world instead! But yeah, exceptional lore and plotlines as well, linking to the main "quest" and the NPCs as you mention in the video! It just all comes together so well, doing so much with so little. There's just so much about Bloodborne that still captivates me to this day, much like the blood moon did to the denizens of Yharnam. It's a haunting, tragic, and darkly beautiful game and story, a world that I actually agree doesn't even need a sequel, because there's a completeness about it (especially after the DLC) that makes me want its lore and memory to remain unsullied, something Dark Souls 1 didn't entirely get with the existence of 2 and 3 (amazing games in their own right for me, but perhaps lacking the allure and touch of the original, which BB also has). I could just keep rambling, but yeah, Bloodborne is a work of fucking art, we really did not deserve it and I'd be over the moon if Elden Ring could somehow surprise me with its quality anywhere near as much as Bloodborne did back in 2015! Here's hoping, and well done with a great review dude!

I didn't own a PS4 when this game came out, but you bet I bought it anyways and spent two days beating it at my friend's house. I avoided as much information on the game as possible; all I really knew was that it has switch weapons and warewolves, I did not expect the game to also have lovecraftian elements as well, which kind of took me to a weird headspace while playing. Somehow I beat the game with only a couple dozen deaths, must of been the adrenaline... That game took me to a weird place and I loved every second of it. Glad I eventually got myself a PS4 to expirence the content I missed out on, as well as the DLC. Yes, I was also one of those people who thought of baseless theories on how the game was going to turn out, but who can blame me? The enitre series is built on intrigue. I hope Fromsoft someday creates a PC port of this game.

Just watching this and the part where you mentioned breaking down and combining weapon aspects made me laugh due to Lies of P literally adding that system in. Great video!

This review is great! One of my favorite games ever made that I return to every few years to do a new playthrough. It helped me through a really dark time after a breakup in 2015 and I love it for that. It’s a masterpiece and the best game in the Souls (it is a From Souls game in my eyes) to me. I pray for a 60 fps patch or remaster on PS5 someday

Well, convincing people to invest in bloodborne just got a lot easier, I'll just send this video, what a fantastic effort! If thats not enough, I mean, the comments here emanate love, admiration and positivity... curious how this collective mentality stems from a game which is full of suffering

It's my favourite game. I started on release and it's pretty much the only thing I still play. It's astounding just how much is missable to the average player. Hats off to the creators for trusting consumers. Anyone wanna share their favourite missable area, mechanic, story line etc?

As for your comment about how every FromSoft game going forward could be a Bloodborne - If you look at Miyazaki's director credits since Demon's Souls, I think there's a pattern. Dark Souls Bloodborne Dark Souls 3 Sekiro Elden Ring I see, in broad strokes, two categories of games here. 1.) DS, DS3, ER all have wide varieties of weapon types and armors, more combat systems like equip load and poise, and a medieval-equivalent high fantasy setting. These games are broad in their gameplay scope, and direct descendents of sword-and-sorcery RPGs. 2.) Bloodborne and Sekiro are from the weird realm where Miyazaki goes to hone one particular aspect of gameplay. Bloodborne doesn't need 200 weapons; it only needs a few carefully designed ones to explore Miyazaki's thesis, "what if Souls combat was more aggressive?" You don't want poise and equip load getting in the way of that, so they're gone, and as a result, the armor you wear in BB doesn't really matter. That's a whole system that's core to group 1, trimmed to make BB a sleek and focused experience. Sekiro is trimmed even further: no armor changes whatsoever, and you only get the sword! Why? Because the madman decided he was just going to make the best damn sword fighting game he could. These games are narrow in their gameplay scope. They bear a lot of similarities to group 1 -- most notably, they all have pretty much the same camera and gameplay loops -- but they aren't interested in being sword-and-sorcery RPGs with fiddly stats. This divorce is reflected not only in their gameplay and combat systems, but more starkly in their settings, which depart from high fantasy medieval Europe. With those categories, I would hypothesize his next game will be type 2: a game with a narrow gameplay focus and a non-medieval setting. *Miyazaki also directed Déraciné right after DS3. It's not an action game as I understand, but it's another example of Miyazaki branching off to explore a gameplay focus, this time VR.
