Started watching some videos this morning as a playthrough isn't an option at the moment and I'd forgotten how fantastic and mind blowing it was they way they put it all together but one thing is very, very clear. Thank you, Hiku, You've gotten me pretty damn excited for BB2 and I'll be running through BB right after GOW. |
The lore is fantastic but presented in a terrible way. Dark souls for example, you know why youre fighting all the time, your objective and how to get there, even if in a vague form. You also understand the background enough to motivate you.
The gods screwed up, had to light the fire, fire is fading, we need someone to lit it again. To do that you need to open the kiln, which requires getting the 4 big souls which requires the lord vessel which requires ringing the two bells of awakening. Thats it.
With bloodborne you cannot do it. You need to rely on crazy internet theories because the game does not even give an objective properly.
But I love the game though... its a masterpiece and it got in my mind in a way that at certain point I just wanted to finish it soon so I could finally leave yarnham... it was disturbing.
