- Hi, Comrades. Took a while with this one. God damn bloodborne content is cursed! I had to fight multiple corrupted data and voice recordings with unremovable noise in the background, damn. At any rate, it has arrived. This is why I think Bloodborne is the best game Fromsoftware has made until now. As I present in the video, its smooth combat, tricked weapons, victorian England environment, and H.P. Lovecraft influence, everything works phenomenally well together.
If you feel like me, none of the other Souls games have satisfied you like this one did, as good as they are. There's something special in this game, something that screams, play me again, and again, and again... It was made with so much love and it shows, so it was only fair that I took my time with this video to demonstrate my love for it back.
Although it's not perfect at all, as it is shown towards the end of the video, it is a game that holds up incredibly well nowadays, 8 years after its release. I was shocked to discover that it has more player activity than games like, Dead Island 2, Monster Hunter Rise, and Meet Your Maker, amongst others. It's crazy that these last 3 belong to a huge list of games that were released either this year or in the last two years, and still, they are far behind Bloodborne in terms of community. A true statement of how good it is, and why we deserve a sequel, or at least a remaster! (Come on Miyazaki san).
Please, before commenting, try to watch the whole video. As always, I only try to share my opinion on a product that I have enjoyed. Don't get offended if my narrative discerns from yours. What I do encourage is to debate in the comments section about whatever discrepancy you might have. Keep it respectful, thanks!
By the way, sorry for the quality of the Gerhman clips. I don't know why they are so pixelated...feels bad man. Also, this video has been reuploaded because of copyright issues with songs I put in two segments of the video, which had to be deleted because they made no sense without the songs.

Man I really should play a Souls games one of these days
You haven’t played any????????????
@@ComYuriY Nope, which one would you recommend for a first one?
I’d start with bloodborne if you have a ps4 or ps5. If you don’t then there isn’t really a correct order. Sekiro is a standalone title that has almost nothing to do with the fighting style of the other souls games, so you can pick it up whenever you want. Ds1 and Ds3 have to be played in that order because of chronology. Ds2 has different story and by far, is the worst souls games of all, but still nice to play. After playing al Dark souls and getting very familiar with the combat, I’d go for Elden Ring, mainly for one reason: I consider it to be the hardest souls game if you play it summon less( without online help from other players) and without spirit ashes (npcs that you summon and help you). Hope I was clear🥴 I think my writing was pretty ass here lmao
If not bloodborne, DS1 in my opinion. Can't really go wrong. Unless you choose DS2 loool.
@@budoolove5887 😂🤝🏼😂
bloodborne creators like this is another reason i love this game. So many people still so passionate about this game
Yeah, one of the few I consider to be ART.
this why i don’t get why FromSoft doesn’t even at least bother to come back to BB and do something to it for the fans. All these years later and ppl are still “promoting” the game and ppl continue to play it. i gave up honestly hoping for a 60fps remaster or a complete remaster for the game. I’m just gonna ignore it and hopefully one day it catches me off guard and see that it’s been remastered. Maybe in 2025 idk
@@kavid8120thats because bbs fanbase is really small, and sales and longevity is garbage compared to its big and little brothers elden souls, theres a reason why u see laughably more lore and videos in general for the other games compared to bb, not to mention many othr game devs talk about their inspiration and admiration of dark souls and even elden ring, practically no one talks about bb except the bb fanbase thats desperate to convince everyone its the best souls game for some reason.
the game sold like garbage too, and most ppl that got it for free through PS services didnt even get through gascoine if trophy data is anything to go by. really the bb fanbase just exaggerate their praise of this game, overall its a pretty mediocre souls game and the overhyping of its fanbase doesnt do it any favors.
overall its a pretty irrelevant and inconsequential game all things considered, the sony suits crunched the numbers, factored in the difficulty of actually porting it/remastering it with its worse-than-ds1 spaghetti code and realized not alot of ppl would actually buy a bb remaster unlike a DS1 remaster, which sold 8 million so far, almost triple bbs lifetime sales. only a small percentage of the fromsoft fanbase would buy a bb remaster, hell even after elden rings success, demons souls remake is still sitting at about 2 million units sold, bb would probably be slightly less or more, but not by much.
Never played it before
@@kavid8120because it’s complete and done it doesn’t need the dark souls treatment just leave Bloodborne as is
Bloodborne and dark souls 3 helped me with my depression. I can't explain it, but i think it takes your focus off your problems and teaches you to keep trying no matter how hard it is. You eventually will triumph.
I’m glad to hear it made you feel better. Reach out to a professional or friends, depression is no joke. Hope you’re feeling better now.
DS3 is FromSoft’s best game. Combat, environmental storytelling, perfect bookend to the trilogy, Best bosses & the OST is the best in any video game I’ve ever played.
I’m heard this from a lot of ppl. NakeyJakey actually made a video about this very topic
Bloodborne became a 'comfort game' for me for this same reason. It becomes familiar and helps you break through your personally perceived barriers. ...I also find it much smoother and find the combat more enjoyable than sekiro
Not only this, but as someone with terrible ADHD, this game helps my brain learn to maintain focus, which just seems to improve all aspects of my life. That in combination with the sense of accomplishment is just invaluable for people who aren't neurotypicial.
Bloodborne has been my first souls game and is still my favourite. Even after all my time playing it I'm still terrified of the upper cathedral ward. Those brain suckers just give me the creeps
Those brainsucker placements are sinful af. You got like 1 or 2 in straight hallways where you cannot evade their blue spheres that trap you unless you time the dash nicely to take advantage of the i-frames. Then you have that one on the second floor that is backturned to you so you think mmmmhh easy stealthy kill, but nah it’s a trap!!!!!
It's been years and nothing still tops Bloodborne. Goodness gracious.
I always play in October just for the vibes. Recommend 10/10 I want a sequel so badly
It has to happen. On god I’d camp outside a game store to be the first to get a physical copy💀
You should play in the last week of March/first week of April. That's the anniversary of the release and a lot of Bloodborne communities play through then so there's more people online.
Still my favorite Fromsoft game. At 950 hours and counting, probably my favorite game ever.
And probably these 950 hours felt like 100, it is dangerously addictive
Cool, thats good it has so much replay ability. I have 150 something hour's, beat about 6, 7 times. Did chalice dungeons all twice. Havent played dlc yet, so that should be fun.Great game
The amount of people coming back myself included is insane. Normally i don't do multiple playthroughs but this is my first and i have dark souls 3 and Elden Ring (which i bought upon release)
This game will never die. Even if we never get a sequel or even a remaster.
Play lies of p
It’s blood bourne 2
@@justinbess6084lies of p aesthetic is a lot like Bloodbornes but it’s far from Bloodborne in terms of similarity, fantastic game tho
The only game I've 100%ed. Loved the gameplay. Recently learnt more about the lore. I know that Miyazaki drew upon some strong artistic influences but the overall universe, storyline and delivery of story detail and clues within the game is genius level.
Just started an Arcane build yesterday. This game has gotten BETTER after coming back to it after playing multiple fromsoft games *bloodborne was my introduction to fromsoft*
Just started my first play through a few days ago and it’s by far the best game ever I love it so much
Gotta love to see bloodborne getting new players after 8 years. Enjoy the trip mate! Rides like this one are hard to come by these days
dont fall into the bb fanboy bandwagon, it really isnt half as good as its blindly biased fanbase says it is.
@@flamingmanure
🤛🐙👎lier!!!
@@flamingmanurelmao said straight from elden cuck.
@@flamingmanureI’m actually curious to see what you hate about it it’s personally my most favourite game it’s literally perfect in my eyes
Thanks for the video! Bloodborne is still my favorite souls game. Nice to see fresh takes still.
Great video! After platinum’ing, the chalice dungeons become one of my favorite things to revisit on subsequent playthroughs. Create a random one and see what’s around the corner, or farm rare blood gems.
u really appreciate the boss music in this game because the music is used sparingly, the gameplay is king, nothing really scratched the itch ever since. idk why sony is holding this game hostage and not giving us a pc port, this exclusive sold many ps4 console and sony keeps disrespecting it. #justiceforbloodborne
Exactly. The community screams for a sequel or a port or whatever. It has more activity than games that came out recently like meet your maker, Dead Island 2, Monster Hunter Rise, it’s crazy…
This was a great video man. It was in depth, analytical, and had humor mixed in. I love listening to other people review/examine one of my favorite games of all time, keep it up, i’ll subscribe too
Thank you brother! I’ll try not to make you regret your choice:)
Ds1 was my first, elden ring was my second only a month after beating ds1, then after 6 months of elden ring i bought Bloodborne because of all the things i had been hearing about it. Didnt like it at first cause of healing, but after a second try a few weeks later it became my favorite game of all time. Sitting at 1.8k hours rn. Done every build possible, done some challenge runs, and i love every piece of lore within the game, (and explaining it to people) masterpiece
1672 ⌛ 👍
Without even watching your video I can say it's still amazing, it's one of my all time favorites. I just played it twice a month ago. I tried an arcane build which I've never done before, it was a bit tedious but the payoff was outstanding.
This video is so sick! I hope you get more followers. Loved it
Thanks for the love❤️ Every video has to represent an improvement regarding the last one. In a month or so I want to watch this one and say, damn this one sucks😂
of all the games ive played bloodborne is probably my top 5 for favorite games ever, maybe number 1. It has everything I like in a video game, and then some. It's also a very focused experience despite the interconnected map, it didnt feel bloated. Aesthetically and narratively it is untouchable imo, as a HP lovecraft buff i like the take on cosmic horror here, while mixing it up with action. And the twist when you really learn whats happening is one of the most scariest, dreadful moments ive experienced in a video game.
My favorite game of all! I'm a dodge player, and the game play makes it seamless to get out of the way! I consider this game to be a 10!
Great videos 👍 bb is still my goat fav.
Terror ost at wma2 watchdog is my fav moment in gaming. That boss made me "gud" in everything in life 😅
This boss was more troublesome than Laurence holy shit
The reason you have to keep going back to the HUB area is because of the conversations you can have with the Doll and Gehrman, after certain events take place in game.
The only thing that holds this game back for me is the 30 FPS. It genuinely causes eye strain. Outside of that, its GOATed game.
I’m currently playing it for the first time and I gotta say I’m having a blast!!
One of the few games I was motivated to platinuming. I started the game a day or two before Halloween in 2015 and it blew my mind how much I loved the world. I played an arcane build and was surprised when people claimed that Orphan of Kos was one of the hardest alltime soulsborne bosses given that I beat him on my first try. On the otherhand, I spent a couple of weeks trying to beat Laurence, The First Vicar. I still have the game installed on my PS4 pro so I can occassionally log on and hang out at the Hunter's Dream with the Moonlight Melody playing. Anytime I have trouble sleeping, that track is one of my go to songs to easily fall asleep peacefully.
Lovely story, seriously. I can see how much you like the game through your words. For me, Laurence has always been bborne’s hardest boss.
@@ComYuriY Yeah he was a real pain. Its funny how you mention the annoyance of dying to Martyr Lagarius and having to run back to him, because I remember that fight and being very annoyed with that too. It reminded me of the worst run back to a boss fight I have ever experienced which was Star Wars: Shadows of the Empire on the Boba Fett stage. That one was the most insanely brutal runback to a boss fight ever and when you beat Boba Fett you would then have to beat his Slave Ship in a second boss fight. It was insanely hard and you had to do a bunch of annoying jetpack platforming for like 20 minutes just to reach him again.
another point to why i think bloodborne nails it with the world design is the hunters dream. the peaceful melody just feels like a real safe haven cause you know you are safe from all the horrors you see outside of it. the world of bloodborne is gruesome and horrifying and exactly that makes the hunters dream feel so special.
My top hub zone for sure. The only thing I like more about the others are that more characters arrive and you can talk to them, do quests for them, etc… in the dream there’s only Gerhman and the doll.
@@ComYuriY yeah i loved elden rings roundtable. its cool to see all those characters. in bloodborne it was kinda just confined to the church where you send all the npcs to
You get a sub for your opinion. Ive been playing bloodborne since im 9. Its what made me fall in love with the souls gsmes.
Much appreciated friend! I was surprised by your age but then again, this game has been out for almost a decade. Time surely flies by😵💫
@@ComYuriY man i miss those years of getting home from school and playing bloodborne with my big bro watching and him saying “damn your actually getting good” and him being behind on his playthrough. I came home from college today and started a new game, with him watching just like old times. All cuz of your vid thanks bro❤️
Damn brother, you have no idea how happy that makes me feel as a content creator. Thank you for sharing that information with me and the rest, hope you and your brother have an amazing time🤘🏽❤️
First thing I did upgrading to a PS5 last month was replay Bloodborne. The DLC is worth every penny.
Same thing for me. I bought my first ps5 4 months ago, and the first thing I did was replay bb. It’s something every bb enjoyer must do
Is my new favorite game of all time and found it after playing Lies of P.
After being introduced to FromSoftware through Elden Ring in 2022, I’ve played through each game. Even with the 30FPS, Bloodborne has the best combat & atmosphere hands down. Overall I’d say Elden Ring, BB, & DS1 are perfection. I’m also very partial to Demon’s Souls! But yeah man, even without a remaster & with the lower frames, BloodBorne is absolutely glorious.
Honestly I never cared either about 30 fps, that’s how good it is. Sometimes the frame drops when there’s too much blood on screen annoyed me a bit, but that’s a minor nitpick. My only “complaints” about the game are the ones that appear at the end of the video.
@@ComYuriY couldn’t agree more bro!
imo ds3 is still the best in the series. The bosses are godly, the combat is fluid and fast paced. I love it so much
@@Firelinker-ql9rd DS3 is incredible. I think coming into the series now though, Bloodborne & Elden Ring do combat better than DS3 & I personally like the DS1 aesthetics better. But definitely cannot deny the quality, I can see for sure why so many people say it’s their favorite! Especially if it was the one you started with/played early on. I also have the benefit of experiencing all of them for the first time on ps5 with minimal jank, I know previous console releases have been hit or miss like Blighttown in DS1 on Xbox. Even the ps5 can’t correct ds2 sucking though lol
@@marine47ncaa25 DS2 is a good game, just not on par with the others.
You have the charisma and speaking ability to be a big personality on youtube
Please keep at it because this video was very enjoyable
Thanks, it means a lot! And no, I don’t plan on stopping🤝🏼
I think, because of how Bloodborne basically launched with the PS4, they had no choice but to force the loading screens between the Hunter's Dream and playable world, especially with how interconnected so many areas are. If you don't take a lamp, you can travel all the way through Iosefka's Clinic through Central Yharnam, through the sewers, past Oedon's Tomb and into Cathedral Ward into Hemwick Charnel Lane, and if you've unlocked Yaharghul, you can run through there as well, AND you can go up to Upper Cathedral Ward if you have the key. It's an absolutely huge, sprawling, connected area, but the amount of memory it would take to load and keep all of that must have been a big stress for baseline PS4. It also doesn't make much sense lore-wise to allow resting at lamps to not transport you somewhere, but I digress. I think it was more of a technical limitation than anything.
I also am one of the very few people who enjoys the blood vial mechanic. I've heard every complaint, but I kind of just think Dark Souls enjoyers are spoiled and set in their ways. I don't mind farming a tiny bit, and as you get better at the game, that need disappears- the beginning farm, around Father Gascoigne most likely, helps attune you to the game. I like being able to pick up vials as I kill enemies and run through an area, instead of trudging back to a bonfire each time with hat in hand, and being forced to reset the enemies I just cleared if I want my flasks back. It also changes how you play. Do you charge in after getting hit to try and rally some health back, or do you back off and use a vial? When you have to work for each vial, that decision can be weighed differently than "oh, if I die, I can just get all my flasks back, it's not worth fighting and I should just start over." I've seen so many DS/Elden Ring players just lay down their weapons when they have a single flask or no flasks left, because they don't feel it's worth it to continue and there's no other way to regain their health. And, if you really can't be bothered to farm, I see that you've played online, which means you can get into the online chalice dungeons and can get at least 80k echoes in under a minute. If the player truly doesn't enjoy the vials system, they can eliminate it for themselves by stockpiling- by either buying or farming.
It still amazes me that people criticise the blood vial system when actuallyyou can simply buy infinite blood vials right from the get go. Instead of spending all your souls on levelling up, try doing a 80/20% split. Spending 20% of your blood echoes on blood vials every time you go to level up will make sure that you never run out of them and making your life so much easier
Father Gas Coin. Great video, enjoyed a lot.
Cool that there are other ppl enjoying BB. I'm playing the game, currently on ng++ cycle.
About zones reset: might be an issue early game when you get little to no blood shards, later isn't an issue as you can stack on BHMs and use them without remorse to reset areas.
About blood viles: idk, seems pretty okay-ish? In dark souls series you can't loot the estus flasks from dead bodies, so you have to be even more cautious as long as I remember correctly. It is demon's souls which is generous with stacking up herbs. You also have rally mechanic to make it more manageable.
Without diving too deep, the real thing that I dislike the most is weapon upgrade mechanic: too much grind and random IMO. Also, the winter lanterns xdd... Those actually have some decent gems for weapons, so yeah. Had to grind those annoying mobs and dungeons as well.
I replayed the game with a new character to capture footage for the video. Even as a veteran player, I ran out of vials like 3 times during my playthrough (fighting Logarius, Gerhman and don’t remember the other). I started using bhms to reset but ran out of them because new character. And yeah, the upgrade mechanic is way too rng dependable. And if you want to really ascend your weapon, you have to go to those deep chalices to find those incredible gems, but I couldn’t care less, the chalices bore me to sleep lmao
Bloodborne was my first Soulslike. I remember my brother bringing his PS4 over to the house and telling me to play this new game he got. I had seen him play Dark Souls 2 once before for like 10 min but it looked too “nerdy” for me (I played games like CoD, Madden and the occasional popular spg). Anyways, I played thru like half of Central Yharnam and fought the Cleric Beast. And holy crap it was an enlightening experience. I had never played a game like it and it was so refreshing. I later played DS2, quit after getting stuck in the Forest of the Fallen Giants, went back after like 6 months and clocked in over 300 hours. And the rest is history. I still need to beat Sekiro tho. That game is so hard 😭
I am replaying it for the hundred time. It needs a refresh, it feels old.
Figures😂 we’re talking about 100 playthroughs here
It's an amazing game now just as it was 2015. You would never guess its age from playing it. The graphics are still extremely good because From Soft's design team is so talented that they could even create a masterpiece painting with only 100pixels with only two different shades of yellow. Everything about this game screams perfection.
I never get tired watching Bloodborne contents. 🖤
As someone currently going through a serious chalice dungeon addiction I command you for having picked up the game again and finished it. You should join the "return to Yarnham" movement that will start in March. It's a fun event that occurs every year for people in love with bloodborne who want to experience it again with more players around.
Thanks, I suppose it starts the day the game released back in 2015?
It still holds up to this day
Elden Ring and Bloodborne are equally special in my heart. Bloodborne for the masochist in me, Elden Ring for the high fantasy.
I just finished this game for the first time ever after having bought it on release when I was in highschool due to the hype around me. I lost track of how many times I deleted the game off my ps4 because I couldn’t get past the cleric beast. I hated it. I picked it up again after playing Elden Ring and Sekiro, and ended up SMASHING through this game (and found out the boss I spent 8 years rage quitting to was fucking optional). It really is such a fantastic game, my only criticism is that the big main story bosses were all incredibly easy. Including the DLC, the only boss (excepting 6 years of wipes to CB lmfao) that took me more than 5 tries was the Blood-letting Beast in the final chalice dungeon, so I wish some of those memey fights were more challenging (Rom, the tower knight reskin, witch of hemwick, celestial being, to name a few). Such a fantastic story and world though, I’m already replaying it!!!
You bet it was perfect and till now it is perfect. My very first souls game 😍😍😍
really fun video. I dont understand your follower number. Your video is just better from like a bid amount of video about souls games. I hope your channel will improve
Thank you for the kind comment, truthfully! I started youtube recently. My first 3 uploads were very inconsistent (1 month of difference between each), and youtube algorithm doesn’t like to promote channels who don’t upload often (understandable). But yeah, ever since September 20ish when I started taking things seriously, I have seen a large increase in views, and I am very happy for it. Subs will come with time, step by step:)
I love bloodborne, BB put me into video games. Turned me into an avid souls enjoyer, the only reason I have a PS5. EVERYONE MUST TRY THIS GAME ONCE.
100%!!!!
My first time playing it was close to two months ago around mid September and 30 minutes into it. I loved it. Honestly before fromsoft makes new projects I say games like Demon souls, Sekiro and Bloodbourne deserves sequels. All three of them HONESTLY need sequels.
For the run back to martyr logarius after dropping off the ledge and taking some damage try just making some blood bullets and then using a vial that way it's not such a waste. Obviously it's nice to have the extra bullets for his fight too
I freaking loved amygdala in fetrid rotted cursed lol 1 hp. I freaking got so good at that fight. Literally had to play perfect. But that thing had my gem I needed
I'll pay for a remaster. I've been avoiding replaying it in hopes that it will be fresh by the time they release one. The framerate is the one thing holding this game back and it's crazy that they haven't made the effort yet to let us enjoy bloodborne at 60fps.
beat it 5 years ago. went back and got platinum last night. AFTER getting one in Elden Ring. Bloodborne is my first Souls game and unrivaled in almost all other categories too.
I envy you guys stories, I want some of that bb freshness too😭
@@ComYuriY its there for you man lol i definitely feel the game coming back alive. 3/25/25 would be 10 year anniversary. 🤔
Have you ever watched the sky in any area while making contact with the moon?
No, what’s supposed to happen?
This is my favorite game ever. I would pre order 2 in a heart beat
To be fair you can use bold hunter marks to reset the area. Which of course presents it's own issue having to farm to buy them.
Unfortunately, yes…it is not a total solution. It is a small annoyance we’ll never get rid of, although who cares, the game is still one of the GOATS.
4:51 Exactly! This! I see so many people disagreeing with me but finally I found someone who does not! One of the reasons how Elden Ring could be better, is if they’d cut the music in areas and the world, because sounds and ambience creates more atmosphere than music. Besides, boss themes and bosses generally would hit harder when you don’t have constant music playing between each of them. There’s a reason that Demon’s Souls PS3, Dark Souls 1, and Bloodborne are known for having the best atmospheres in the series, a good amount of the reason is their visual artstyle, but another is because of how much they shy away from using music. Big W!
💯!! It’s literally the only game where I have thought this and it’s like, bro are we really throwing shade at them for putting in work by creating soundtracks for zones?😂
@@ComYuriY Lmao fr 😂
I actually had no idea what from soft was about
A friend at work told me bloodborne was free on PlayStation one day, so I decided to check it out. And that’s where the love affair began. I actually love it so much that I felt guilty taking it for free so I went and purchased a brand new physical copy just to give them my money. That’s how amazing this game is to me.
This act of yours is as noble as Radahn allowing Malenia to put her arm back on to fight. Good job sir!
Bloodborne 2023: Unrivaled
Lies of P: HOLD MY BEER
I'm still playing bloodborne ever since they gave it out for free on ps plus. Mostly because I have not 100% it yet for that sweet sweet platinum
Great video! How do you go the entire video not discussing the DLC? I personally found the DLC a good extension of the base game and with some of the best weapons (whirligig saw, rakuyo). Some laude the DLC as the best DLC of any game ever. Perhaps another video for you to do in the future?
By the end of the video there’s a sneak peak hinting I’d make a video on the dlc only, which I just released yesterday🙂 go check it out if you want
@@ComYuriY Fantastic! Will check it out. Thank you for this trip down Bloodborne memory lane. Time to go for another playthrough! 🪚🪓
@@vette21man Thank YOU for the kind comments:) I’m glad you enjoyed them.
Gee...what an original video !
Sorry for asking but is that sarcasm?😂 if it isn’t, thanks:)
My first souls game and also still my fav game of all time
I think I’ll be 60 something years old and still remember how much fun I had with my first souls; Bloodborne
I beat it for the first time a few weeks ago. I bought the ps4 to play it in the first place way back and got stuck at rom (and because i spread my stats too much). I restarted from the very beginning and has a good time.
I still play it a few times a year for a speedrun. I ignored that its 30fps
Can we be friends pls 😂? I couldn’t agree more, all of that I’ve said previously to my friend group when I religiously was talking about the game trying to persuade them play it! Really good video dude
Hahaha ofc my dude😂🙌🏽 same situation here, I recollected most of these points from conversations I have had with my friends trying to convince them. I wasn’t very successful though… most left even before cleric beast
I don't know if you knew this because you didn't mention it in the video, but stock up on Bold Hunter's Mark's. Using them resets the area and puts you back at the lamp without losing any echoes. It's not the same as DS obviously, but it does the trick for farming.
Yeah many people have commented it. I knew it but forgot to mention it in the script. It’s an alternative better than going going back again and again manually but doesn’t 100% fix it because it’s still a consumable.
@@ComYuriY for sure. I'm of two minds about it being a consumable. On the one hand, sure - it can get super annoying sometimes to have to break the flow of the game and either go farm stuff or buy it from the hunters dream. But it also makes sense with the way the rest of the world is presented as a whole. There's this oppressive uneasiness that pervades the environment, and running out of things that you need can cause some really great fight or flight moments that can elevate your experience just as much as take away from it.
Nothing can be close to bloodborne. I beat the game two days ago . Masterpiece ❤
Still phenomenal done another play through and absolutely dominated ludwig after letting my friends try for a bit.
They should start implementing the Ds2 thing to reset an area to fight the boss again. I’d fight Ludwig all day long
half of bloodborne is running to the boss fight the lack of campfires makes it unenjoyable
That extra damage during dodging makes sense. They don’t want players to abuse the tech.
Panic dashers who try to abuse s by spamming O tend to be beginners. I don’t think a beginner will realise they are losing more health by getting caught while evading. Furthermore, why would I risk dodging and dying because of the extra damage if I can just stay quiet and survive in some attacks. For me it really doesn’t make sense honestly. If they don’t want players to spam the O button, just put a delay on it, like, you have to wait 1 full second before pressing it again or the character won’t respond to the input.
@@ComYuriY that's an awful suggestion. Glad ur not on FS team lol. On a serious note, bloodborne boss fights are a rhythm, memorizing attacks and deciphering where exactly to dodge and when is part of the fun. And don't mention beginners please FS isn't merciful on veterans too. Everything is vague and left to the deduction of the player. EVERYTHING right down to story. Ambiguity is part of the appeal.
Really great video! I am on my 36th playthrough and i find it interesting what other people think about the game. Also what is the music at 24:45
HOLY SHIT! My amount of play throughs are rookie numbers compared to yours😃 thanks bud. It is called Bell’s theme from COD BLACK OPS COLD WAR. This game has a surprisingly awesome ost!

I’ll 100% check it out. Maybe they come in handy for my script of the old hunters commentary
@@ComYuriY yessssss please, charred thermos deleted his work fr TH-cam but dark sun gwendolyn uploaded most of them again
Just started playing this a couple days ago, best soul's like game IMO
Totally agree
Lop is better by allot
best from soft game
Nice video, couldn't disagree more about the extra damage during dashing, game gives you plenty of ways to get back your health. It punishes spam dodging. Just have to adjust and not panic. Which is pretty much the formula for success in these games.
Ik ruik nederlands 🙌🙌
Great video man 🔥
Thank you! Really appreciate it😊
Ijust love playing bloodborne in my room. My own vibe a warm blankey. And a hot coffe
Damn I didn’t know you were chill like that
Its just a great game icant believe stop playing it. Thanks for reply
i’ve always wanted more from BB, there are many dead ends to the story that are interesting to follow through, imo the game felt more like a shelf project, rushed and never fully finished and was undermined by Sony. It is a masterpiece nevertheless and it leaves me wanting more of it. (i got it in 2015)
I felt the dead ends were the locked doors . A lot of what was put into elden ring could have been put into bloodborne.
Lies of P would like to have a word with you
It's funny how I was really into Lords of the Fallen but only one video at the bottom of the recommended TH-cam videos on the right named: Bloodborne: Nope.
Now I only watch videos and I'm OBSESSED with playing a Lovecraftian dark fantasy RPG in the streets of Victorian London.
I'm just waiting to know if the 60 Fps mod is viable and maybe a PC release who knows...
At this rate, we’ll be seeing a PC port by 2040😓
@@ComYuriY No problems gonna buy PS5 just for this game.
Bloodborne and Sekiro are the GOATs. I got burnt out of Elden Ring after one long ass playthrough. Yet another dragon and giant filled dark medieval fantasy setting combined with identical Dark Souls rolling gameplay was so tiresome and stale. Praying for a spiritual successor or sequel to one of these games in the future.
You absolutely nailed it,mate👍🏻 - imo Bloodborne is the best game ever made (ok,besides Silent Hill 2) and I put over 2.500 hrs into it. Unfortunately you can play it as much as you want to,you'll never experience the athmosphere and excitement from your first playthrough😕🤷🏻♂️ - however,great job,keep it on👍🏻
Thanks bud! Appreciate the comment:) yes, I’ve only felt the whole I wish I could forget everything to experience the whole game again from a fresh perspective with 2 games. Bloodborne and The Witcher 3.
@@ComYuriY totally agree,but in my case there're 3 games - Bloodborne,Silent Hill 2 and Control😉
The most simple way I can put it is that Bloodborne's combat want you to be down right VICIOUS!
Damn right it is. Every now and then I come back to yharnam to put down some beasts!
to reload an era you can use the bold hunter's mark ! :)
It’s still a consumable but yeah, better than nothing I guess🤷🏽♂️
Bloodborne was my first soulsborne and also my first platinum.
Man i love bloodborne. And this is only base game adding the 10/10 DLC to it makes it even more of a perfect game. Still waiting on that remaster From
Update: Just saw your video on The old hunters good stuff my guy
@@reaper8263 thanks mate!:)
Actually, the pig chalice boss has some unique attacks, in difference from the og maneater boar
Yes please bloodborne 2 please fromsoft gods answer our prayers.
I've been playing it again recently
Clowned on OoK using the cannon
Bro the dlc is a must it has the best bosses
Check the ending of the video!
Bloodborne is in my top 3 games ever, The goat souls game.
In MY OPINION blood borne is one of my favorite games of all time. Top 3 at least. But I have to say that I have become a masocist for the bloody crow. He is brutally difficult and probably one of the hardest npc fights fromsoft have ever made, if you don’t cheese him. Which I personally never have as I didn’t know it was an opinion. However I love just how difficult of a fight he is. As someone who has played through blood borne multiple times and can beat nearly every boss first try every time. It is refreshing having an enemy that will always be there waiting for the duel of a lifetime.
Also take my subscription
Yeah, he is merciless. The player just has to suck up and get good. Beating nearly every boss first try is amazing, props to ya. Thanks for the sub mate, really appreciate it😊
@@ComYuriY after being killed by each, too many times to count eventually you start to pick up on weaknesses. I wouldn’t claim that it was easy. Because it wasn’t, the fights were just addicting…but having to constantly farm for healing was brutal at the start. Once you’ve got a good grip on the game healing isn’t nearly as bad of a problem.
Yeah, until the point you get extra confident and start applying extra handicaps to make the fight more interesting, like killing Lady Maria with no parried😂 Yesterday my friend and I were in a party while I was collecting footage for the next video about the dlc, and man…2h and back to farming vials because I couldn’t beat her! She is a whole different fight without visceral attacks.
@@ComYuriY my fights with Maria happen as such. “Parry her over and over again until phase 3. Then I miss time a parry and my health bar is deleted. Repeat until I stop missing parries lol.
Its so good it doesn't need a sequel
Don’t you want more bloodborne in ours lives?😢 I’m all out for it if it comes out the same way or better than the first one
Regarding the katana animations: kenjutsu itself focuses very heavily on head strikes, so in a way this is a form of cultural accuracy.
Bloodborne is not a historical game nor a real life mimic, so I don’t think this is a situation where lack of cultural fidelity is a flaw. Call of duty having holographic sights in WW2? That is fucked. Bloodborne expanding the moveset of a Katana to make it more pleasing? Excellent 👍🏽
I've seen everyone complaining about lamps and blood vials, while not doing enough research to understand why the game is made this way. First of all this is Bloodborne, it's not supposed to play like Dark Souls, it's supposed to play like Demon's Souls. Demon's Souls had similar fast travel system and finite healing items. Miyazaki has said that he purposely made the player go back to the Dream always because the game was much harder than previous titles and he wanted players to be reminded to spend their resources by visiting the Dream, otherwise they would be in danger of losing them. Also it makes sense that a hunter would return his workshop to prepare before a hunt. Plus he wouldn't just sit and rest besides a lamp, next to beasts, monsters, blood and guts. This isn't a pilgrimage like Dark Souls. Blood vials are a really good healing system because you have 20 from the get go and they always heal 40%. You don't have to find fire keeper souls, estus shards or undead bone shards. You can also hold 32 blood vials with the correct runes. Last but not least, you have the rally mechanic. Which is really overpowered. If you don't use it, that's on you. You can save a lot of vials by using rally. And again it wouldn't make sense lorewise to have infinite vials. Vials are precious and rare and come from great ones. Everyone is addicted to them and searching for them all the time. Why would they be infinite? Plus you can buy them from the shop. More damage while dodging also makes sense, otherwise you can just spam dodge and get away with anything because the evade has already crazy s. If Sony ever makes a remake or remaster they shouldn't change these things. Maybe just the fast travel, it wouldn't hurt the game I guess. Like the demon's souls remake. Miyazaki has said that if he could change anything in the game, it would be the blood gem system and the chalice dungeons. Because they ran out of time and budget when they were making the game.
Playing it now as I watch this lol
I can't stop telling everyone I just beat bloodborne Monday in 1 stream, main game took me 11 and a half hours
Damn that’s pretty fast. Was it your first contact with the game? Or had you finished it before with other character or something?
@@ComYuriY I already had 4 playthrough worth of experience.........I just realized I've beaten Bloodborne more times than the rest with dark souls 2 placing at second with 4 playthroughs
@@Cold_Zero_The_Wise I won’t lie, you surprise me ranking Ds2 at second spot out of all of them, but hey, if you like it, I respect it✊🏽
@@ComYuriY it's my personal favourite actually.
One minor thing from the intro - Fromsoft and Miyazaki actually can't do much with Bloodborne at all, despite having made it. Sony exclusively owns the rights, so technically its their IP entirely. Its up to Sony whether to remaster/remake, or sequel, or hell even just patch it, but all they've been is bizarrely negligent.
You’re right! My bad
Goddamn I love bloodborne. I'm also delusional.
It's absolutely perfect for me and my tastes. Nothing to hate for me.
A lot of people hate the dungeons but I think of it as semi-fresh content for a game that I want to keep playing. I think the consistent dungeon layouts are familiarity, not laziness. If I get bored with Irithyll dungeon, I skip to Iz. Such a great feature.
Thanks for commenting your discrepancy in a respectful manner, it tends to be the other way 💀 so I appreciate it. Yes, I understand that since they are randomly generated, it adds something “new” to a game most of us have already explored very deeply and there isn’t much, if anything else to see. Despite this, I think I hit my limit after doing approximately 20. I got tired of running around mazes to pull a lever in caves that look very similar😅
Irythyll dungeon is actually an area in dark souls 3, not bloodborne but I agree the I love the chalice dungeons
@@123NERDZ dungeons as in chalice dungeons
@TheRealGovika that's what I just said buddy .
Irythyll dungeon is not in bloodborne its in dark souls that what I'm trying to say .
There is no irythyll in bloodborne .
Irythyll of the boreal Valley and irythyll dungeon are locations from dark souls 3 .
@@123NERDZ yeah maybe he wanted to say Ihyll
The first day I played eldin ring I got invaded and honestly I didn’t mind it that much
Yeah I don’t mind it much in ER either, since it has easy fast travel, sites of grace everywhere and Marika statues.
In bborne however, if a guy invades me in the poison swamp before Amygdala and he kills me before activating the shortcut lift, that is fucked up, you know? I’ll have to run through the whole zone again.
20:38 bold hunters marks can reset the area, although they are a usable item which is kinda annoying
Yep, it doesn’t 100% fix that issue since it’s a consumable
