i love Bloodborne but i still think the From peak was DS3 and Sekiro

you can play it on PC now, and it even has overhaul mods.

>>715845490
Its the best balanced of the traditional Souls games because you mostly only have one way to play the game with two novelty builds you can do outside of that.
Bosses are built around you playing a glass cannon melee character that spends most of the game dodging and avoiding attacks and counter-attacking to regain HP when hit, and parrying is your central defense mechanic otherwise. Spells are more limited and situational most of the time.
You can do builds around your gun or consumable items and spells, but they're mostly for the novelty of doing so and while they can bust up bosses, they have pretty large limitations or investment requirements. 90% of players are going to play in roughly the same way, naturally.
Trick Weapons cover basically all the bases that a melee weapons needs to, while avoiding the issue of having too many similar weapons per category that other games can have.

It also has probably the most coherent and holistic world of all the Souls games with the least amount of unfinished areas or plotlines that don't go anywhere.
It feels like a tight package that you can figure out fully rather than something messed up and slapped together at the last minute.

Of course, the problem is that if you don't like playing the single way that the game provides you with, then you're kinda SOL.
It isn't the most diverse or accomodating of games.

>>715846052
>>Not a single attempt at a Bloodborne clone

>>715844740
I can see why you think that but when you play ds3 after playing blodoborne. You see they that reuse sooo many assets. Granted they do that for every game they release but ds3 was a lot more egregious

>>715846113
>yet another Sekiro clone
And I'm also talking about the overall atmosphere, not just the setting

>>715846445
Lies of P is nothing like Sekiro other than having an arm weapon, which in this case is actually useful.

I don't think it does yet. If your PC's good enough you can do 1440p

Even if it did run at 1080p30 it still wouldnt be enough. Snoy buying the rights to bloodborne was the greatest tragedy to video games and i will NOT pretend otherwise.

>>715846814
Only at release date on the fat PS4, the pro can even do locked 60fps with a patch, which also greatly reduces the fps drops for the regular PS4

>>715846858
You're triggered because you're a retard, and this comes from someone who finished LoP twice last month and is currently going on a Beasthunter's Saif run on BB

Almost every single one of the Bloodborne clones out there is just Sekiro with a coat of Bloodborne on top and without the cool lovecraftian stuff

>>715844272
Is the emulator difficult to run? I want to run it on pc so bad but i dont think my 2070s will run it properly if its a dogshit emulator.

Yeah, some of the technical problems are being addressed with emulation, but honestly the game is way overrated for what it is. It has a cool atmosphere and vibe, and some bosses are pretty good, but its not like its something akin to RE4 or whatever. Good game though.

>>715848474
the end of this vid really highlights the problem with a lot of 3D games, that you can just run past enemies with ease

>>715848513
More than the quickstep I feel that what makes the game click is the follow-up animations, no game has nailed the "stepping-in" feel that the combat has and that allows it to feel so perfectly paced and aggressive

>>715843391 (OP)
sonic the hedgehog 2 is better than this
ANY DAY.

>>715848747
DS2 fixed that problem.

>>715843391 (OP)
Bloodborne has a great atmosphere but Sekiro is superior in every other regard.
Bloodborne still has too many vestigal Souls elements. It feels like simplifying rather than streamlining or meaningfully innovating.
The posture system is extremely elegant whereas rally is braindead. Both "encourage aggression" but only one put any thought into it.

>>715848747
It's a risk/reward thing. You better know the map like the back of your hand and be skilled at playing or either you'll trap yourself in a dead end with a dozen enemies pursuing you or die from a single hit because you've ran from every encounter and thus are still level 1 in the mid game. Making interactions like opening doors or climbing ladders both slow and interruptable could make the player weary from doing this, I guess.

>>715847243
>>715847541
But they are right tho

But seriously
is from one of the best company ever
they literally released hit after hit for the last 15 years

>>715847243
>muh feminism
Fuck off.

You now remember that there's a non-0% chance we might get a Bloodborne Demake made by Bluepoint

>>715849808
But they are not. The Great Ones aren't pressured into carrying life, they WANT to have kids, they are OBSESSED with it. Their plot is based on the r/K selection theory that says the more evolved a being is the less children it has because they're more capable of taking care of their offspring and thus they don't need as many to continue their bloodline/genes/whatever (so 'less evolved' beings like ants or rats might have shitloads of offspring while 'more evolved' beings like humans or whale has fewer). The idea is that the Great Ones are *so* evolved that they stopped being able to have kids and so yearn for substitutes because, paradoxically, they're the apex of evolution yet the one thing they desire they cannot have. Kos curses the Hunters because they take her kid away from her, the Vilebloods end at odds with the Church when Laurence tricks them and takes their child from them, Yharnam wants Mergo back, hell's sake Oedon tries to impregnate everyone in his Chapel once the Paleblood Moon hits.
The idea that the major female figures in the game like Yharnam or Kos are "pressured" into being with child when it's the thing they want the *most* in life is asinine.

>>715847243
Faggots still glaze this mediocre tranny game like OP and the tards posting here. They're zoomers with nostalgia glasses not knowing that the subsequent games are objectively superior.

DeS > BB > DaS > not important
BB has the same problem as many of their later games when it comes to all the not-bonfires and warping, and for some reason you're forced to go back to the hunter's dream to level-up and warp, also non-linear level design is worse than tight linear level gauntlets

>>715850281
>zoomers glaze the decade old game not the newer one
I want you to reread that but slowl

>>715850387
Zoomers were 13 and thought Bloodborne was deep and most console players are usually gen z kids around the 2010s.

>>715850259
The focus of that line was one someone like the Whore or Fake Iosefka, who are either forcibly impregnated or groomed to want to be impregnated by a corrupt system.

>>715850619
>the focus of that line was on the exceptions over the rules that show that motherhood in Bloodborne is something sought after and cherished
I see. Not a great example to use the villainous impostor that kills the nicest girl in the entire game and experiments on her and any other innocent bystanders a gullible player might send her way btw

>>715850259
It's anti natalist propaganda. Unsurprising since these games are satanic in nature.

>>715852232
There's this fat ugly 30yo bitch at work who looks 10 years older at times because of psychological issues. She hasn't touched a game since she was a child playing ps1+2 games with her brother. She's been "gaming" vicariously through media consumption for the last 20 years but she has a Bloodborne tattoo in a spot close to her ear and can recite you its plot points by heart whenever you wish.

Shit's weird to say the least

>>715848760
Quick stepping, which I assume you guys mean the rolling replacement, combined with the hit to heal mechanic definitely combined to make the games combat really good and this was despite it being lower fps then what gamers today want. A remaster with 60+ fps would definitely be quite good.

I do think that the chalice dungeons weren't so great though. Its an okay divergence from the main game for a bit but they fast become repetitive due to being randomly generated. Also I thought the weapon upgrade system should have been handled differently. Would have preferred something more streamlined or closer to prior games.

>farming healing items and bullets
I feel like a "stipend" when you run out would have been a good idea, like enough where you can push on through the world with skill but not enough to slug it out with bosses. Like 5 of each, having to immediately drop everything to go farm vials/bullets/echos (for vials/bullets) is just bad.
>absurdly bad input delay, frame pacing and frame rate
>bad anti-aliasing
Probably one and the same, I bet Sony was really pushing for better graphics for the game as a system seller, leading to it running like ass.
>lots of unfun to explore areas
I don't recall many unfun areas, but I do recall some places that hurt my eyes which made them unfun.
>low variety in playstyles and builds
Yep, but that may not necessarily be a bad thing, Sekiro is an example of it done well.
>lame dungeons to grind
There were way too many in each tier or whatever. I recall I wanted to fight Queen Yharnam on a second run but I hadn't done any dungeons yet, it was multiple hours of no challenge dungeons boring me to tears grinding for mats, then I switched to a different chalice and was doing no damage and getting killed super quick. Needless to say I didn't fight Yharnam.

Overall I agree with your points anon. DaS1 is still the best IMO.

>>715856682
Yeah, I could even partially retract my points about the lack of variety in builds and playstyles (since it makes for a more focused and balanced gameplay), and the technical problems (since it is finally being fixed by the community), but the other points are just inexcusable, a clear regression from the lessons learned from their own past projects. DS1 and DeS have still aged better and have more replay factor as videogames if you're not into waking at BB's lore and setting.

>>715855260
You don't know what 'objectively' means

I'm starting my first playthrough, not reading guides but like hearing from anons since it's a roulette of facts and bullshit just like playground rumors. Any tips or advice?

>>715847243
not reading all that. god I fucking hate women, i don't even know what does it say but i'm 100% sure it's the most obnoxious take in existence

>>715857835
You need to be smarter than that. You need to bait these anons into giving their definitions of "objectively", then watch the chaos arise when they shit the bed

>>715857925
Go back to the room you start the game in after interacting with the first 'bonfire'

>>715846069
In other words, it's more focused. I think it's time for another play through.

>>715844125

Does anyone have this shit on shadps4? should I update the emulator?
last time I played it ran exceptionally great with 3 mods to fix some glaring issues, but aside from the occasional crash from tabbing I didnt have any problems

>>715857925
The coolest weapon is only really usable in NG+ unfortunately. Serrated weapons are generally the most applicable. Don't discount items, they can make or break a fight if you know how to use them correctly. Be aggressive but not reckless.

>>715861441
>>715857925
Oh, also lrn 2 parry, it's important. I never got it down and it sucked not being able to do it reliably when the chips were down and I was on my last vial.

>>715849902
They might have reached a point similar to Bethesda before Fallout 4, where people were too afraid or unwilling to criticize them, even when it was warranted

>>715847317
It's actually a problem. Sekiro looked slightly dated for 2019. Elden Ring looked considerably dated for 2022. Shadow of the Erdtree looked very dated for 2024 and so does Nightreign in 2025. Their graphical capability (but not art direction) has completely stagnated and may be due for an overhaul.
