Bloodborne thread

Hmm i dont remember seeing it there. Ill look again.

This play through has been going horrifically bad for some reason, dieing to everything loool.

On my NG+ run. One shot Gascoigne and BSB. So much easier now that I understand the game way better. Revenge tastes sweet.

Yea i killed the Cleric Beast but i don’t have that coat…maybe i didn’t pick up his item hmm.

Edit: I went back and looked to see if it was on the ground where he died and its not. I have everything else in the shop that picking up that badge offers, just not the gear. I must have just completely missed noticing he drops it and this missed it on picking it up. Oh well. I will know better next time.

You can’t miss boss drops as they are key items. I forget the details on that particular armor so either Exposed might be mistaken, or maybe you’re just looking for it in the wrong place.

I’ll take another look then.

Man the guy asset the end of Eileens quest deffinitly heals now. He also doesnt seem to keep the chikage transformed like he used to. That makes me sad as this dude is retard strong. Way too strong imo. I know for a fact he has max stats and +10 weapons. Unlimited ammo like all npcs to so he can reallh spam the shit out of that old hunters bone. Hmmm…wonder how im gonna kill him now :\

Yeahhhhh, that guy is crazy strong. I would almost suggest just tackling him as one of the very last enemies and just leveling way up, especially if it’s your first character. His gun is just way too freaking strong.

Best I’ve ever done legit was get him down to half life, but then he starts to heal, and that shit is just depressing.

Yea as soon as heals i know I’m just gonna be like “Man fuck it” and kill Eileen instead or something. Really dumb to gate one of the covanants behind that guy.

Also just checked the normal shop and the insight shop and that gear is in neither of them.

Edit: Looking again i just noticed i dont heve the gear in shop from getting the Powder Keg badge either O.o

Double Edit: Ah you actually have to kill Djura for his gear to show up.

Oh, the powder keg armor is sold in… oh you already checked the insight shop… wtf? I have no idea bro.

Yea I threw in a quick edit in the post above but guess not fast enough. I went back to the Clock Tower and fought Djura. You have to kill him for his threads to show up in the Insight Shop apparently. Kinda lame, I like Djura, didn’t want to kill him. Same boat with Eileen, I like her, I don’t want to kill her just for her gear and weapon.

Ooooh right I forgot about that, yeah the badge is just for the weapons.

Same, that’s why I gave in and cheesed the hunter in her quest. In later play-throughs I did kill her and honestly, I felt SO BAD. I hate killing non-hostile NPCs, let alone ones that end up tragic. If you don’t help her with Henryk or check in with her much, when she’s at the cathedral, she will be the one who’s aggro’d, and you have to kill her. her dialog during it made it hard, but I was just fighting for my life at that point

Yea i cheesed him in my earlier runs on my bros PS4 as well, but it seems that doesn’t work anymore.

Hah you felt bad for killing her while she’s trying to chop you up like a blender with those knives, I’m debating killing her while she’s bleeding out on the Cathedral steps…

Well, it’s like, I feel bad that it came to that. It’s basically because you don’t help her that she falls that way. If you do her questline right, she still (probably) dies, but she at least does so in peace. Having to kill her after she’s lost her mind to despair is just really intense, especially since it happens after the world REALLY goes crazy, which was already emotionally difficult for me to deal with.

i might be mistaken. idk !

Bro if you’re that soft, these likely are not the games for you.

Emotionally difficult… Smdh

Remember this epic Bloodborne figure that was teased a few weeks ago? Well pre-orders are up and to my surprise it’s gonna run $300. I’m a bit shocked to say the least seeing as it’s only a 12" PVC figure, which generally run about $90-$120. $300 can get you an epic mixed media 18" PCS or SS statue. Not sure why this one is so goddamn expensive, but I’ll be passing for sure, shame.

Wtf? I’ve completed the game multiple times. Emotional response doesn’t make me not suited for the game, in fact it actually makes me part of the target audience. If you think From Soft WASN’T trying to get emotional responses from players, then you’re just blind or trying way too hard to be “tough” or something.

Edit: Maybe you think I see the fact that it makes me feel bad as a negative thing, but it couldn’t be farther from the truth. The fact that it inspired emotions at all, even if they were of dread is in fact one of the reasons I think it’s so amazing. Heck, it’s a better horror game than even ACTUAL horror games. Not a single one of those games actually ever really makes me feel dread and oppression for such long periods of time especially post-Rom when everything really goes crazy, or in the Nightmare Frontier. Most horror games are just jump scares and gore now, and that shit is fucking whack, but this game is amazing and handles horror gracefully, thoughtfully, and substantially.

The fact that it can make me feel uneasy is awesome and is really just proof of how incredible the art design is in the game.

I don’t understand how anyone gets into that hobby honestly. Toys and statues are absurdly priced. Who knew there were so many rich nerds out there? I’ll just have to be content with looking at pictures online.

Consider the Valley of Defilement in Demon’s Souls. Tons of people hate that area, I certainly do too. But what really makes that area so difficult is it’s theme. It’s so dark, it’s filthy, it’s poisonous, decaying, and full of death. It’s not just draining because of a status effect called “poison”, it’s draining because it’s depressing, and the fact that it is is WHY it’s such an amazingly designed area. This doesn’t mean I like or enjoy playing the area, but it’s designed that way, it’s SUPPOSED to be emotionally unpleasant, so it’s actually doing it’s job.

I loath Valley of Defilement lool. Wish Demon’s had a Rusted Iron Ring.

But yea the atmosphere there is extremely good, the place is just oppressively depressing. As far as Atmosphere goes it’s one of the best realized areas in the entire Souls series, which is saying something imo as the Souls series has some of the best realized locations in the medium. I love and hate the Valley of Defilement all at the same time.
