There's a lot to like about this game, I loved the atmosphere and level design in particular.

I liked some of the bossfights, my favourites were father Gascoigne and the final boss (not the secret final boss, I didn't get that ending), the other bosses mostly ranged from good to okay in my opinion (Micolash is the exception to this as his fight was miserable).

For me the chalice dungeons actively made the game worse, without them I would easily give this game an 8/10, they're just boring and repetitive to me and the more difficult ones just felt more annoying than anything else to me.

The gameplay also felt solid overall, most of the general combat felt good, but I do feel like the dodge when you're locked on is a little slow to start up. This made some attacks feel unreactable with the delay between inputting dodge and the I-frames actually coming out, I got frustrated by this a good amount over my playthrough.

I also have some issues with the health vial system, because you permanently run out of them if you use too much, things like poison swamps are more obnoxious than ever because of the health lost from poison. Sometimes I got close to beating a boss only to lose too many health vials and have to grind for more instead of being able to retry and learn the bossfights. It also doesn't help that your blood echoes that you need to buy more healing items with are lost upon dying, so you have to just stop fighting the boss to farm more heals. Also the cost of blood vials increases over the course of the game, which makes this problem last a little later into the game than it otherwise would've. Thankfully this mostly goes away in the late game, where you're able to stock more and more over the course of the game to the point that you are unlikely to run out even after spending 60 on one fight.

With all that being said, when this game feels good to play, few games can compare to the feeling of playing it, the DLC is also really good and worth playing.

After getting through The Old Hunters DLC and finally defeating the final and then FINAL final boss, I can say that this is probably the most depressing game I’ve ever played while at the same time being unbelievably awe-inspiring and addictive at the same time. The story and world, while cool, I do wish were more clearly laid out. Digging through item descriptions as the MAIN means of piecing together some through line of a plot is unique and not something I’ve ever seen in a game before; however, when one cryptic NPC speech bleeds into the next with little fanfare in between, it does leave one a bit lost and wondering about the point of it all without instantly taking to an online forum for possible explanations.

a true masterpiece, and potentially the best souls. Bloodborne is one of the best visually beautiful games, it has excellent level design and an arduous challenge, the world is enriched with fantastic lore and graphics that are remarkable for a 2015 game. there are some flaws: a really uncomfortable and annoying camera, an unstable framerate, which hasn't been resolved even on Playstation 5, and the duration of the main quest isn't that long (I finished the game in about 21 hours). Despite this, it must be played, an experience that I will remember for a lifetime.

This is the pinnacle of video games. No video game comes close in terms of gameplay, boss fights, music, atmosphere. Everything about this game is exceptional. Yharnam is hauntingly beautiful and full of so many terrifying and nightmarish creatures which make such dreadful noises. The drip of the characters is phenomenal. The fact that this game has stagger? Holy shit it makes me feel like such an unstoppable hunter out to find and slaughter prey.

Bro, words are not enough, I need to fuck this game. I want to have sex with this game fr.

Incredible achievement in game design. I cannot believe this is a real game. Don’t even get me started on the dlc. The best dlc of any game. Elevates the whole game and the lore. Miyazaki is an artist in every sense of the word.

Esse jogo já me ganha só pela estética gótica que ele apresenta, mas isso não é tudo que ele tem a oferecer.

Que combate gostoso, as armas também bem diversificadas tendo uma transformação para cada que dá vontade de jogar com a maioria delas, o parry com a pistola eu achei bem apelão e satisfatório foi uma boa mudança em relação da série Dark Souls.

Falando sobre os bosses, aqui nesse jogo a maioria dos chefes são gigantes, raramente lutamos contra bosses humanos (ou perto disso) gostei da maioria deles só alguns que eu verdadeiramente odeio do fundo da minha alma que são o Micolash e as Falhas Vivas esse sendo da DLC, e o Emissário Celestial é bem meh.

Uma delícia esse jogo e platinei ele em um PS4 que nem é meu KAKQKAKAKKAK
