What can be consider one of the best video games ever made, Bloodborne shows that video games can be art. Set in a Victorian-Era town named Yarhnam, the Player arrives to receive treatment from the town with Pale Blood. However, things are not what they seem as the Player is thrown into a world of living and otherworldly nightmares. They must cooperate with the mysterious Gehrman and his servant called "The Doll" to survive the night and reach the morning sun.

The number one aspect from Bloodborne is the soundtrack. Each track from the many bosses Players will fight fits the tone and theme for their particular boss. Even the bosses themselves are stunning and memorable with their different move sets and abilities to defeat the Player The combat is face paced as Players must be quick to dodge out of the way of danger or get to a safe distance to heal or else perish from the many enemies they will face. With an arsenal of both melee weapons and firearms, Players can choose whatever equipment necessary to survive The Hunt. The visuals are stunning as the game captures the Victorian era from the large buildings to attire that players wear. Bloodborne is indeed a visual and musical masterpiece.

As with other Fromsoft's Soulsborne games, Bloodborne does not tell an explicit story. As background information on the setting, characters, and the game's lore are told by characters and item descriptions. With this game, it captures that form of storytelling as Players do not know what is going on or why they are doing what they need to do; in much Lovecraftian fashion. In the end, The Player will have ended the Nightmare, they will be given the choice between awakening under the morning sun of the ascend humanity.

Bloodborne is indeed a work of art and it shows. It is one of my personal favorite games and is the best video game I have ever played and nothing has even came close. It is a game that would leave everyone in awe when they play it. There is only one word that describes this game and that is "perfect".
