focus on offensive playstyle rather than defensive/reactionary

the whole lovecraftian theme is super cool

i will do this by linking you a video i haven't watched

YouTube

but it's made by the same guy who made "fallout 3 is garbage" and he's very articulate and thorough in his analysis

Zonda · November 22, 2016, 09:25:38 PM

It's challenging in a fun way.

I actually saw this video a couple days ago and stopped when he bases his entire argument on asserting that his favorite playable is objectively more fun than any other and that people who don't agree are somehow stupid. I know here on Sep7 we say shit in games is objectively better all the time as a joke or as hyperbole and shoot shit at each other, but holy shit this guy ACTUALLY REALLY means it.
Like Holy Hell, how can you be a more self absorbed, pretentious fuck?

I doubt he means it. He says shit like that all the time, and if you let it affect you, you're weak in the head.

Why would I do that? I don't have a vested interest in Sony's bottom-line. Buy it if you think it looks neat, don't if you don't.

And if you need to be convinced, you either like it and want to be talked out of it or don't like it but want to be talked into buying it. In other words look at gameplay and decide for yourself instead of making others fight on behalf of corporate opinions.

I will link you this video by Digibro, who I always like. He offers a very interesting perspective on both series. I SHOULD note there are heavy spoilers in this for BB, so if you want to avoid them, watch up to 4:45, and then jump to 7:15

YouTube

I would also say, if you want a break from typical medieval stuff, and want to dive a bit into fantasy/Lovecraftian tier things, then by all means, give it a shot. It's a beautiful game, and handles the atmosphere and level design much better than Dark Souls 3 if you ask me.

You can turn into a tentacle rape broccoli monster and there's a gatling gun weapon in the game.

Mostly weeb stuff, but this video is the first I saw of him, and I always do enjoy when people think outside of the box and present me with something I would have otherwise never have even began to consider.

Shouldn't have to convince you.

If you liked dark souls then you'll love bloodborne, since it's the best game in the series.

A Cheese Potato · November 23, 2016, 06:36:00 AM

it's like dark souls with guns

Doctor Doom · November 23, 2016, 01:16:31 PM

It's Dark Souls, but instead of souls and the undead there's blood and 18th century Europeans.

Spoiler

And Cthulhu.

Turkey · November 23, 2016, 02:00:22 PM

I think the story is more compelling than Souls, and the environments are fantastic. If you like Souls games, you'll like Bloodborne.

It's got top hats and canes. What's not to love?

Dietrich Six · November 25, 2016, 08:29:30 PM

Compelling story, interesting side characters, creep factor on fleek, fisting giant pigs.

Plus the shotgun is the best thing ever for parrying in souls games.

A salt rifle · November 26, 2016, 03:01:45 AM

Just to clarify, he likes Dark Souls but is really frustrated with Bloodborne - he has already played it - so the 'if you liked Souls the you'll like Bloodborne' comments don't apply.

He actually wants reasons to continue the game.

He's gotten kinda bad lately, just making stuff telling people what they already knew about. He should do another series in the style of "asterisk war sucks".

Luciana · November 27, 2016, 03:11:20 AM

Yeah I need to finish that

Big Boss · November 27, 2016, 05:53:20 AM

If you like Dark Souls combat but prefer it to be way faster page I see no reason to not like Bloodborne. It's risky as hell but ohhh so satisfying.
