    This is a MUST, honestly you can pick it up for 20 bucks and it's incredible how many hours of fun you will get for it, 5 years since released but graphics still looking pretty nice, lore is incredible and playablity challenging, had it in my sheer for 4 years till I decided to play it and totally surprised, recommended

    Poor animations, crappy graphics, boring, repetitive, painful gameplay. It is not a recommended game at all.

    One of the best PS4's exclusive.
    This challenging game give a bit different play style from Souls game. But it really great! Fresh gameplay with fast pace combat.
    Weapon, it have ton of unique and great weapon. I like Bloodborne's weapon more than Souls. Boss, just a bit bellow Dark Souls 3, but since the game released before DS3, then the boss is really great. Especially Hunter boss!

    Soundtrack, is again, great. really match with gothic style world.

    The only negative thing is frame rate. Sometimes it just like around 25fps, experienced a few drop, but it's not really big deal. I'm still can enjoy the game till the end without serious problem.

    Me encanta Yharnam. Su atmósfera, su terror, esas bestias sedientas de carne y sangre que acechan en cada esquina, son cosas dignas de mención. También me parece bueno el combate.

Soy partidario de eliminar cizaña del inventario cuando al final todos cogemos la misma arma durante gran parte del juego. No es especialmente profundo el set de movimientos, pero sí lo es la progresión de armas mediante piedras de sangre.

    El diseño del mundo lo veo sensacional. Un laberinto cargado de secretos donde se premia la curiosidad e iniciativa. Lamentablemente, no soy el mayor fan de la críptica narrativa de este juego. Sé que hay algún vídeo por ahí, haciendo arqueología para desentrañar ese supuesto puzzle llamado historia. Tampoco soy el mayor lector de Lovecraft, a decir verdad, prefiero otra literatura antes. No me apasiona, pero lo respeto, por eso ciertos momentos fuera del desafío, me saben a poco.

    No lo veo para todos los públicos, por su exigente dificultad y su peculiar narrativa (algo contencioso para los más puristas de este medio llamado videojuego). Sí diría que es altamente recomendable dentro de su nicho.

    This game needed a PC version. 600p25fps or whatever the **** it runs at is unplayable. Beyond that, I'm not really a huge fan of the gameplay. It's like Dark Souls but more restrictive in your playstyle and build.

    Lovecraft done right. this game truly makes you fear the unknown and is the absolute best "adaptation" of the style of writing Lovecraft popularized. add that to a truly compelling and complex story, visceral, satisfying and fast paced combat, unrivaled atmosphere and world design and a masterful and otherworldly beauty in it's art direction. easily the best game on the PS4

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Bloodborne es una obra maestra!

    Este juego toma lo mejor de los Dark Souls y lo expone de maneras insospechadas, tiene enemigos variados y todos son agresivos, tiene una gran variedad de jefes finales y su ambientación de horror e historia son de lo mejor que se ha visto en el mundo de los videojuegos.

    En este juego podremos encontrar una novedad que le da un giro importante a Bloodborne en su jugabilidad a diferencia de los "Dark Souls" que son las armas de fuego, con esto el juego busca que seamos mas agresivos en el combate, ya no buscaremos cubrirnos detrás de un escudo que por cierto aquí eso no funcionara para nada.

    En conclusión este juego es bellísimo, hermosos gráficos, gran historia, misiones secundarias interesantes, jefes poderosos y difíciles. Además de lo ya descrito el juego siempre cuenta con multijugador y es fiel a lo que ya nos tienen acostumbrados por parte de From Software, aquí podremos invadir el mundo de otros jugadores para matarlos y ganar recompensas o simplemente reírnos por los combates tan variados que se pueden dar ya sea que perdamos a ganemos, o simplemente ayudar para pasar el juego. Con ayudar a otros jugadores ganaremos conocimiento en el juego. El conocimiento es de lo mejor de la aventura ya que este nos servirá para invocar a alguien para ayudarnos en nuestra aventura o para ver cosas nuevas en el juego, y por ultimo y lo mas interesante es que nos servirá para que los enemigos sean mas agresivos ya que mientras mas conocimiento tengamos en nuestro poder mas agresivos serán los enemigos, esto lo recomiendo solo para los que quieran un gran desafío.

    Como dato adicional Bloodborne es básicamente infinito, ya que podremos crear los llamados "Cálices", en estos encontraremos nuevos jefes de calabozo y enemigos en ocasiones que fueron eliminados del juego al inicio pero que se han rescatado gracias a que en internet muchos jugadores dedicados han dejado los códigos de los cálices para encontrar a estos jefes finales. Algunos serán sencillos de matar y otros serán muy difíciles. Otro agregado es que aquí encontraremos mas armas diferentes de las que encontraremos en la historia principal, armas alternas a las que ya tenemos pero mas poderosas y recompensas como materiales para mejorar nuestro arsenal.

    Conclusión: Bloodborne es uno de los mejores juegos de todos los tiempos, amo al estudio From Software.

    I really enjoyed the base game, and my advice to anyone looking to play that isn't looking to sink hundreds of hours into this - play the DLC as part of the first playthrough. Otherwise you are forced to either restart the game for a balanced difficulty or alternatively grind for ages getting the best gemstones in high level chalice rituals or just be extremely good at memorizing timingI really enjoyed the base game, and my advice to anyone looking to play that isn't looking to sink hundreds of hours into this - play the DLC as part of the first playthrough. Otherwise you are forced to either restart the game for a balanced difficulty or alternatively grind for ages getting the best gemstones in high level chalice rituals or just be extremely good at memorizing timing to cheese boring V attacks (shoot + counter).

    The game is dripping with atmosphere. It has pretty balanced difficulty. You'll die instantly if you don't pay attention. It highly rewards paying attention to loot, items, enemy attacks, shortcuts to get back to safety. It's great. There was 1 boss that I couldn't handle no matter what I did but I managed to weasel into the forbidden woods and level up 25 levels in a few hours and savagely slay the beast.

    If you like Dark Souls 1, 3, and Demon Souls, you'll like this.

    The DLC would be as good as the base game except for the sudden spike in difficulty for Orphan of Kos. He requires such precise timing with parry and dodging leaving virtually no room for error. He can kill you in seconds and it's infuriating. There's also no NPC summon. It takes leveling to 160 with a maxed out weapon, plenty of fire paper and beast pellets, appropriate runes (up visceral attack, lake/great lakes) and tonssss of practice. Nobody asked for this.

    BLOODBORNE is the best "Souls/Borne" game out there. While I did enjoy DARK SOULS (1), I never could get into its sequels (especially the terrible second one).

    The best part of BLOODBORNE is the atmosphere and the world design: it borrows from Gothic horror and H.P. Lovecraftian Cosmic horror, but not in a cheap way, oh no, it does it in the best way possible and has enough originality to not be just a knock-off. I will forever remember my first climatic encounter with Father Gascoigne as the best fight ever in a game.
    It looks and sounds great and has a terrific soundtrack and unique voice acting.
    BLOODBORNE is the only reason I bought a PS4 - and I did not regret it! I've put 500+ hours into the game.

    This is my favourite game, period. I bought this game at full price and initially hated it, I thought once again that I simply wasn't into these souls-type games, after playing Demon's Souls years prior as a kid and, while loving the gameplay, was not keen to stick with it.

    This time it was different. Maybe it was because I paid full price (and I was gonna get my money's-worth). Maybe it was the theme and atmosphere that captured me the moment I booted up the game. Regardless I find this to be one of the most entrancing 'gaming experiences' I've ever had. Every part of Bloodborne is brimming with character and uniqueness. The world is beautiful and engaging, in a depressing kind of way. I was never into the whole Victorian-London theme, but something about this game made it work for me.

    The gameplay is aggressive and engaging, there's an adrenaline to fighting almost any enemy when you can't cower behind a shield. The stun-lock mechanic is satisfying and visceral, which summarises the entire combat system perfectly.

    The world feels lived-in, the atmosphere is surreal. This game is a testament to why atmosphere and immersion is such an important factor to so many games. I felt like the Hunter, I felt the risk, I felt the reward, and I sure felt the frustration at times.

    The bosses are chefs kiss. They're all solid, even if a few are a little on the easier side, particularly one, early on (a couple of hags, you know the ones).

    The narrative is confusing, but the more I paid attention, the more glimpses I got at the bigger picture. And of course watching a few videos explaining wtf was going on also helped, but I think it pays off well to not have all the answers presented to you so clearly, in a game like this, it works wonders, and only add further to the atmosphere throughout.

    There's also a fair-share of tragedy in the characters you meet/interact with. If you get the 'true-ending' and understand the situation (probably a second run), it's beautiful, epic and a little sad, all at the same time.

    Basically I could praise this game infinitely for the sheer amount of joy (and madness) it brought me. This is one of those games that I have no regrets about, the good, the bad, the in-between. It was all worth it, worth the experience, and the platinum. You should play this game.

    Also, even a game that is given a 10/10 is not perfect in my mind, and this is no exception, but as an entire package, it's art.

    Regardless.

    PLAY IT.

It's beautiful yet horrifying, gorgeous yet ugly and tough but fair. Fromsoftware are infamous for creating unforgiving works of art with rich story, phenomenal boss battles and expansive worlds. Yet, there is always that one area or boss that really grinds the game to a halt. Either the setting or enemy is way to hard for all the wrong reasons and may possibly affect the entire experience for some. Yet with Bloodborne, I felt none of this. There are weaker levels and bosses in the game but none that never made me rethink the 10/10 score I would give it. I do not wish to give too much away since this game is absolutely amazing when going into it completely blind but if this is your first Souls-like game, then expect to be treated like a toy. However, dying never feels like your fault. It's either that you didn't see an attack coming or you dodged at the wrong time. Every attack from every enemy is telegraphed and it comes down to the player to react to that. It favours a much more aggressive play style that compliments this perfectly as it gives people who have played Dark Souls before something new as well as a new player into the series getting used to combat.

    With all said and done, Bloodborne is an experience like no other. A vile and disgusting world with dark and horrific story as well as heart pounding gameplay mix together perfectly into something that no gamer should ever miss. I know that this sounds extreme, but it is worth buying a PS4 just to play this. I hope all of you get to roam around Yharnham some time.

    I have not seen a game where the mechanics of the battle would be made so crookedly, the enemy hits further than it could, hit-bogs more textures. 3/10, only the plot pleased.

    objectively and undoubtedly Chrono Trigger (snes), Final Fantasy 7 (ps1) , Metal Gear Solid (ps1) and Bloodborne are best games ever made, for so many obvious reasons.
    (just one flaw : character creator is terrible like all Soul Games, should have been like Nioh 2, WWE games or Saints Row series)

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Hands down the best game fromsoft has ever released. i mean, wow. There was for me a small learning curve, seeing as there is no more block and parry, now it is down to timing the swing to a good ol blunderbuss shot, or pistol/rifle shot. Coop is where it's at. Single Player is completely do-able but the coop is truly king.

    Graphics (on ps4 pro) are quite tasty, they are not perfect, not the best i've ever seen, but a great quality none the less. far above most and under even more.

    controls are great, i never had an issue there. doge, roll, swing, slam, quicksilver your arcane ability should you so choose to run with it (not honestly viable in my own opinion)

    this is a great Victorian era setting, grim-dark and bloody. Weapons can be upgraded with bloodshards-twinbloodshards, blood chunks, blood slabs, blood rocks. its a souls game yet ruled by blood. it differs greatly from the other souls series as you have the chance to regain health in a limited amount and time frame upon taking damage making aggressive and tactile play more forward instead of overtly cautious.

    blood vials can be used to heal yourself and also expanded through arcane runes that can be equipped to your character. gems can be slotted into your weapons to increase stats and even add some attributes such as poison or fire. all beast carry an innate fear of fire!

    there are invasions that will always trigger when you summon in a companion for jolly cooperation.

    (i myself and my friends have found that the small bell or resonance must be rang before the large bell of beckoning. it allows for a faster summoning) you can set passwords to help your friends find you but a good bet is to follow the bell structure i just listed as well as stand in the exact area or as close to it as you can get to allow easier and quicker summoning. you cannot summon once an invader is present (unless they join as your summoning is a success) once one person is summoned as a coop partner (up to 2) the bell ringing woman appears, evil and vile and rings a sinister bell for the denizens of pvp (ewww pvp) i am not a fan at all of pvp i only enjoy coop and helping others, that being said, bloodborne has done it right, find the woman and kill her, she will cease to ring her bell and from that point on, you can continue to summon your friends with no worries, (your large bell will continue to ring unless you silence it, costing 1 insight to ring each bell each time, best to let it continue to ring)

    the enemies are varied, some vile creatures are hidden away, waiting to be discovered, some are in plain sight. all are woefully corrupted.

    i have completed the game so many times i truly have lost count of what NG+ i am on. i know i am past 20 but cannot remember anymore what the number truly is. and yes, with every iteration passed, the enemies grow stronger.

    chalice dungeons where you can gather materials from bosses and worlds (and other dungeons) exist to provide a slight different take. many are repetitive. what is the point? unique weapon variants!

    The visceral counters upon stunned enemies are gruesome and satisfying, combat is easily understood, moderately implemented and once mastered, makes you feel like a true hunter. The more you fight, the more you kill, the more your eyes awaken to the world around you and then, you begin to see the world for what it really is. There is so much depth inside of bloodborne, the story is there, right in-front of your eyes, and yet piecing it together and theorizing on top of it is truly what makes it so enjoyable. i want desperately for a sequel, but I also fear a sequel, this was the first fromsoft game that for me is perfect in every way. I do not know that it is even possible to top it.

    This game was surprisingly ahead of its time

I watched several YouTube videos and read online on how to beat this game. To my surprise, although it was difficult for me to beat this game, this became the first game for which I completed 100% Trophies. I loved the engaging and rewarding combat, great selection of weapons, good user interface and absolutely stunning Yarnham City. I also enjoyed doing Chalice dungeons as it helped with powerful gems. I also enjoyed all the boss fights (except Ron spider) and mob fights. I enjoyed this game so much that I ended up playing it again. And most likely I will play it again at some point as I crave for some engaging awesome combat and to stroll around Yarnham city. Expand

    Bloodborne is a game that reinvigorates the meaning of immersion and challenges expectations.

The artistic direction is probably the most fascinating thing about this game. The dark Victorian aesthetic makes you makes you feel like you're in a LovecraftianBloodborne is a game that reinvigorates the meaning of immersion and challenges expectations. Even if borrowing heavily from souls games, it possesses a unique and awe inspiring identity that supersedes any of it's counter parts. The artistic direction is probably the most fascinating thing about this game. The dark Victorian aesthetic makes you makes you feel like you're in a Lovecraftian or a Bram Stoker novel. Dreading every corner, yet being mesmerized at the beautiful scenary and architecture. The sound design makes the hairs on your arm stand up, as you wonder through cursed forrests and haunted towns and castles. Shrieks in the distance and music boxes playing past certain buildings. Enemies in this game are some of the most facinating and gruesome things to encounter in your adventures. All of them unique in their design. But after defeating them, you'll truly feel like a hunter worth your salt. Gameplay is more fulfilling and facinating than previous souls games. Although, more simplified. Bloodborne offers a sufficiently varied arsenal with even more diversity throught their unique weapon transformations. A bad ass weapon conversion mechanic straight out of a steampunk novel, allowing for an array of tactics for every encounter. Want a sword-like walking cane, that transforms into a bad ass whip? Or a straight-sword that holsters into a freakin tomb-stone, turning it into a great-hammer? For the first time, in an effort to accommodate to the victorian theme. Blooborne introduces firearms to the series. Each one designed for specific affliction. Want a cool blunderbuss with scatter and stopping power?
    or a longer range and more damage, like the hunter's pistol? There's virtually no blocking in Bloodborne. Instead, you'll have to adapt to a more aggressive playstyle with pistol parries and the new rally system. A mechanic that offers you a chance to recover lost health at the risk of dying. All of this encourages for a more fast-pace style of gameplay, that keeps you on your toes. In classic FromSoft fashion, the story is as cryptic as ever. The game has you exploring for environmental storytelling, talking to npcs and reading up on a plethora of unique items for back story into the tragic and unnerving world of Yharnam. Although almost perfect, the game isn't without it's flaws. Unlike previous souls iterations. Bloodborne has a different take on the resting "bondfire" points. This time adding lamps that don't allow for rest and only allow for travel to the safe haven of hunter's dream and not in between lamps. Making it a waste of time having to travel twice to get to your destination. Again, unlike previous souls games. Usable items "blood vials" and QS bullets are only replenished through farming, as oppossed to having them restock every time you rest at a bonfire. This can be an annoyance specially when most of the looted items are these two specific items. One more thing that Bloodborne introduces, is the Chalice dungeons. Pesky procedurally generated dungeons that are integral to the lore and to an extent, the progression of your character. To put it short it's a procedurally generated grind-fest. Where enemies and bosses posses an obscene amount of health and the rewards only get decent on the latter and even more difficult dungeons. Players committed to their character builds will be spending as much time here as they will in the main game. These flaws pale in overwhelming contrast to the masterpiece that is bloodborne. A grotesque, yet captivating world where being a hunter of beasts never felts so immmersive and engaging. Every tactic must be considered, and every blood vial and bullet accounted for in the fiendish realm of Yharnam.
