Simply put, this is the best game FromSoft has to offer. This game combines the peak of FromSoft storytelling with the peak of FromSoft gameplay. If it weren’t for this game being indefinitely trapped on the PS4, I’d recommend this game to anyone. Bloodborne consistently impresses with its aesthetics and lovecraftian storytelling, as well as its in depth and extremely challenging combat. Character builds are as complex as ever, weapons are powerful and varied, and the encounters with enemies and bosses provide a level of challenge that meets your power as a player and will always push you to play even better. I won’t lie, the game is hard as nails, but rising to the level the game expects from you provides a feeling of satisfaction that is nearly unmatched in any game I’ve ever played.

In my opinion this could possibly be the greatest game ever made. I'm not quite sure what made FromSoftware take this route with a game after the smashing success of Dark Souls, but I am so glad they did. To me this is the pinnacle of that familiar FromSoftware way of storytelling through environments and clues. The atmosphere of the entire game is literally unbeatable, and the design of everything, from the monsters to the world itself is incredible. All of that on top of my favorite combat style of almost any game ever makes for one hell of an argument of GOAT status.
