Rovbert Steinman writes " Bloodborne is all about the thrill of the hunt. Each and every encounter can quickly prove to be your last. Enemies are extremely aggressive, timing is key to survival, and small mistakes leave you with sucking chest wounds that you probably don't have time to heal. All of this should sound familiar to those who've enjoyed the previous Souls games, but Bloodborne has a feel and style all its own. This is a game that openly mocks the typical turtling-shield method that I used to (mostly) great success in my sojourns through Boletaria, Lordran and Drangleic. Here you're expected to stay on the offensive, move with careful consideration, and quickly dispatch a threat before it has the chance to send you back to the beginning of the nightmare. "
The Souls-like genre remains popular, along with FromSoftware's classics there are many contenders. But which are the best Souls-like games?
Hmm... In my opinion, the 7 best are the 6 made by FromSoftware (DeS, DS1, DS2, DS3, BB and ER), then Lies of P. But each to their own.
Saad from eXputer: "Almost a decade later, it's time to take the nostalgia goggles off and accept that Bloodborne has long been surpassed by its successors."
Yes, yes it does. It’s still a great game. Elden Ring isn’t better just different and a bit easier . I like that you have to be aggressive but smart in Bloodborne
"Sony is missing out on a hugely profitable opportunity by ignoring fan demands for a Bloodborne remaster and PC port," says Ahmed from eXputer.
Bloodborne came out on the PS4. It is owned by From Software. What missed opportunity? I am sure the people at From Software know what they are doing. Especially since they are hiring devs instead of laying them off.
Maybe do an article about that instead of writing a hit piece on them acting like they don't know how to run their business.
It will be a launch title on PS6 just like the remake of Demon's Souls for PS5 launch
Wondering if anyone on N4G did the "Borne to be great,its in the blood" joke yet.
Shut up and take my money!
good to see the game got great reception so far. I'm not a fan of the Soul series though but glad to see fans get a great game in their hands!
Finally I think is time for me to dust off my gaming expertise skills once more.
GOTY much?
