What made Bloodborne's The Old Hunters an excellent DLC?

Comrades! Back again with an upload about this excellent game called Bloodborne, sure you've heard about it.
As I teased at the end of my previous video about Bloodborne, I was going to create one more video talking about its DLC (downloadable content).
This has got to be one of the best extra content for a game I have ever had the pleasure to witness. It complements the base game in so many aspects and even does many things better, such as boss fights. The ones you get to fight in this nightmare are a once-in-a-lifetime experience. God, I wish I could fight Ludwig for the first time again... :(
My purpose in this video was to solve the title question for veterans of the Souls franchise, and newcomers as well: what made the old hunters such an inseparable part of the base game? Furthermore, this is an attempt to convince anyone who is new to the game, to buy it since in my opinion, it is very cheap for the content it offers, and secondly, you can't say you've really played Bloodborne without having fought Maria and Ludwig.
Hope you enjoy the video and tune in for my next one, which will surely drop tomorrow or past tomorrow at the latest. Peace.

This is why I am so hyped for Elden Ring DLC. I know From will deliver.

[@ComYuriY]

100%, but no more Malenia ffs😮‍💨

[@waves3869]

what’s crazy to think about is imagine how highly most people already think of elden ring and we don’t even have dlc, i’m so excited

[@jameslough6329]

@@ComYuriY I actually really liked Malenia tho. And most of my souls veteran friends who played Elden a ring liked her boss fight as well. It is SUPER satisfying to fight her once you take the time to master her moveset imo

[@ming_jaii]

@@jameslough6329it is really hard to know when will trigger malenia’s waterflow tbh She is rly full of rng sometimes Once when I tried to parry her, she use her kick 4 times in one combo Another time three quick strike*3 then immediately use waterflow

[@jameslough6329]

@@ming_jaii Waterfowl is actually really fun and satisfying to dodge once you learn how to do it. If you are patient enough, you can learn to dodge it from any range (even if she does it at close range). You can run away when she initiates the move, jump right before the first flurry hits you, roll through the second flurry, and then the final flurry will go over you with you only having to take a couple steps backward. This method works at close range and long range.

The only DLC I've ever bought knowing absolutely nothing about it. It was the first FromSoft game to get me hooked on the genre and I was less than halfway through the main game before deciding I wanted to see everything this game had to offer.

[@aaron_aplin]

I didnt play Bloodborne till like 2020. It was my first FromSoft game and im so glad i made the choice to play it.

[@FreshDougan]

Best dlc of all time. I'm biased because bloodborne was my first souls game. But damn those bosses were amazing(aside from the living failures). The new weapons became my favorites(pizza cutter and HMS). 1,500 hours in and still playing.

Bloodborne is my favorite game. I bought a PS4 just to play it, no regrets.

[@buddhajew6259]

I’ve got more hours in BB than any other ps title combined.

[@VREMEPLOV1]

Got ps5 for Christmas and immediately downloaded Bloodborne, which became my favorite soulsborne game. It would have been perfect if it wasn’t for several areas (nightmare fucktier and forbidden woods) and some subpar bosses (micolash/ rom/ witches of hemwick…). Can’t wait for Elden Ring DLC and hopefully Bloodborne 2 one day, would buy it immediately.

[@otdreamer193IRONFIST-yx6gn]

@@VREMEPLOV1And not to mention many of us would like a full 60fps version of the game. It’s a great game nonetheless and still my favorite in the souls series. I wish we’d get a sequel especially because I like How Bloodborne didn’t let you play it safe like Dark Souls and you actually had to be ready to confront enemies head on compared to spamming magic or shields.

The First Boss Litteraly has My Name thats kinda charming all the weapons are good the music is Super Epic especially living failures Second Phase You litteraly get the beast Rune this with the best claw and you litteraly become a Glass Cannon Edit: OK th Fist of Gratia or Cratia is bad

[@masson5775]

i borrowed my friends ps4 to play bloodborne and “platinumed” it, but i only bought the dlc after my first playthrough, so i only got those weapons for half my second playthrough (which I used the saw) and my third, which i decided to do a blood build with the chikage, and i gave the ps4 back two days ago and after watching this video I regret not doing a playthrough with the moonlight sword lol

Why Bloodborne is the best soulsborne can be explained in one word: quickstep.

[@Eric_SRT]

Bought a ps4 just to play FF7 remake. After I beat it I tried bloodborne and easily become my fave game of all time. And I played all the dark souls games prior. Such a masterpiece

[@alexandrei926]

[@Franc0xd]

I have to say bloodborne's DLC is very good, the best bosses, the best ost I ever hear in any game, but bro, the pve is insane, even whit some good chalice blood gems (without glyphs) and a +10 weapon, the pve isn't fair, the bosses yes, but the mobs deal way too much damage even in the first zones of the dlc...

[@ComYuriY]

I didn’t get that sensation at all during all my 3-4 playthroughs of the DLC. Maybe you didn’t have an optimal build or your game cycle was too high? Didn’t invest many points in hp?

[@Franc0xd]

how the fack does people know what that language it's is in ludwig boss fight

[@ComYuriY]

If you speak a romance language (derived from Latin) such as Portuguese, Spanish, French… you might be able to recognise some words. I speak Portuguese and Spanish, so for instance, in Gerhman’s theme, I could understand some lyrics sang by the choir, like “luna insidiosa” (insidious moon). It’s not hard to detect it’s Latin, the hard task is to translate everything accurately since Latin is a language full of cases and they can be troublesome to translate.
