I've come to realize that the "Souls" games and Bloodborne are terrible games...

If you loved games on NES, which are entirely about dying and starting levels over, then your complaints about Bloodborne are covering up for the real reason you dislike it. 

Or it could be that expectations of games and how they perform are tempered to the times in which they are created.  An autosave feature wasn't prevalent in the NES days like it is today.  To fault a game in 2015 for not having one is not at all the same as not faulting a game made when it didn't exist.

Except this is a game that is part of a unforgiving series that makes it apparent from start to finish that you will be dying and retracing a lot. So moot point.
