Bloodborne may be the best work Fromsoft has ever done. Tricky weapons, guns, atmosphere, locations, lore, cool outfits, great osts and many other elements make this game great in my eyes. This game, which I had the chance to play for the first time since its release, is like Fromsoft's unwanted child in my eyes. It is also painful that there is no remaster or at least an official 60 fps patch in the game, which has not received any updates since its release year and still has many bugs that working even today. The GotY version with Old Hunters DLC takes the game to a much better place. Fromsoft's DLCs have often been better than the main game, and Old Hunters is no exception. The DLC does a tremendous job as a DLC, with much better bosses than the main game bosses, great weapons, osts, and details that close many gaps in terms of lore, and it personally closes the short structure of the main game wonderfully. I have a hard time not deducting points from the game just because of the chalice dungeons, because you may have to play as many as 26 dungeons in identical locations to get just one achievement. In terms of difficulty, there are also dungeons where you have to play with increasing difficulty and even with a very low health bar in cursed dungeons. These parts are optional for achievement, but instead of doing these parts, there could be 1-2 quality locations in the main game and better quality bosses could be made. But these dungeons are important in terms of lore, so I guess they're not exactly unnecessary. In conclusion, Bloodborne is an excellent game due to many of the elements I mentioned at the beginning and may be the most valuable game as a PS Exclusive. Fromsoft needs to show some more love to this game, which has been completely forgotten and thrown aside since its release. I think we will continue to copium for the PC port and the next generation 4K 60 FPS patch for a while.
