The Worst Mistake in Fromsoft History is about Bloodborne and abandoning systems that worked so well! Things like the insight system, the trick weapon system the best of the best weapons from bloodborne that have stood the test of time to the point where elden ring is still adopting systems from this game! Bloodborne is a masterpiece and it's a game we may never see again, but fromsoftware made mistakes by not bringing these back!

Diving back into the universe of Souls and Souls-like, happy to have you along for this journey
You didnt do the spoil thing for all the weopons right?
Minor typo at the start
You forgot to mention return to yarnam
The biggest Fromsoftware mistake was allowing Sony to own the Bloodborne ip.
Agreed 100% agreed
This!
That’s what I thought this video would be about lmao
Without Sony there is no bloodborne since bloodborne was funded by Sony from Start to finish.
Bloodborne is only seen as a mistake if you see in how good these systems were and in how people will still remember how good it is, making them ramble in how nothing is as good as Bloodborne
So, in short... Bloodborne is FromSoft's Forsaken and Taken King
I love Bloodborne but man when they did Sekiro that game is just lightning in a bottle. Seriously the world and exploration in that game is next to none
how did the destiny universe come to take the top comment on this one?
@@EvanExplainsBecause a lot of us are from your other channel 😂
and ily for that
@@EvanExplains We with you on both sides, my dude
Bloodborne is easily my favorite of the Soulsborne games. I wholeheartedly agree with you that the trick weapons were special. I think I collected nearly every weapon in Elden Ring and yet I can’t remember them exactly as you had described.
Sony has been holding Bloodborne hostage for so many years. I have no idea why they don’t want our money. They still haven’t released a 60 fps patch for the game.
I’d love a sequel but only if Miyazaki is involved.
apparently it's to do with the contract in place, which is a renewal of the contract from demon souls. It's so backwards that they are not even allowed to port the game to PS5. They really painted themselves into a corner. See, Sony was (might still be) one of those draconian, Japanese companies that is ran by Dinosaurs (Konami is a prime example of this) where they just squander IP's because of the ego of the top execs.
it's likely that Sony was embarrassed about squandering the Demon Souls licence, and not taking Dark Souls as an exclusive, so because of this, got a bit trigger happy when it came to the Blood Borne licence. I heard that the paperwork for this game is supposed to be completely backwards, and short-sighted. I mean imagine not even being able to update your own game to your new console. LoL. For all intents and purposes, Sony own Blood Borne, but they can't even use the IP neither. It's stuck on PS4, forever.
@awoken8infinite
I don't intend to discredit you, but can you present evidence of this claim? Your answer feels logical but I want to be sure and a quick search about it didn't yield any results
Trick weapons are special cause there are only a fairly limited amount of theme, this wouldn’t work in a game like Elden ring since the map is so big and need a lot of loot.
@@nothingness217Agreed. Where did he get this information? It does sound logical, but I am skeptical of the claim because people just parrot things they hear. If he just heard it from someone else, who isn’t a reliable source, then it’s meaningless.
@@awoken8infiniteum what Sony owns the ip wholly. Same with demons souls.
You went through all this trouble to just present how much you want Bloodborne 2.
Bravo.
Dude the church pick is one of the best weapons in the game. It has perma thrust attack in transformed mode (lots of enemies weak to pierce/thrust), sacred, hidden serrated (beasts), and a very fast attack speed.
It’s definitely very underrated it’s just not flashy?
Agreed it’s one of my favorite weapons the transform combo is so good.
I love the Churchpick! Then again what makes BB absolutely incredible when it comes to replay ability is I actually enjoy creating builds around all weapons except for like 3 or 4!
The sycthe is my single favorite weapon of any game. Really makes me feel like the grim reaper.
The Scythe in Lies of P is also a lot of fun 😊
@@AscendantStoicthere's a scythe in lies of p????where do i get that
@@osama9501 From the Boss Ergo/Soul of The King of Puppets
@@AscendantStoic oh that one, iam not there yet but it doesn't really look like a scythe to me , when i said scythe I meant a *scythe* like the one in nioh 2
@osama9501 Its design is a litte unorthodox but Puppet Ripper is definitely a scythe, its moveset is very interesting, basically when you use heavy charged attacks the scythe head detaches from the shaft to which it is now connected by a metal wire, as a result your attack range doubles, it also hits 360 degrees around you hitting even enemies behind you.
It also has a hidden perk that allows it to literally cut through walls and objects and hit enemies behind them (which has huge cheese potential)...it's one of the best Technique/Dex weapons in the game, and a lot easier to use than the Two Dragon Sword.
Bloodbourne is my GOAT game. The combat and aethetic is just so very good. The right amount of challenge. And the DLC being almost as big as the normal game, insanity. My first fromsoftware game I played to completion.
That’s the only one I beat too- stays in my collection
I've finished Dark Souls 1 and 3 (quite a few times to be fair, getting every ending).
Never got around finishing DS2 because it's always felt like a chore, and Demon's Souls I haven't had the chance to play (didn't own a PS3).
Sekiro I was right at the final boss fight but it's pending to be finished since last december (not that I gave up, life stuff just happened).
BUT Bloodborne, I must have played and finished close to 10 times and is the only PS4 game I ever bothered to Platinum.
Truly a Legendary game.
That's awesome. Was my first completion game too.
I felt I had to finish at least tone soft game before I went to elden ring.
Elden ring has not held me the way bloodborne has though.
My big thing with bloodborne weapons is that every single one changed the landscape of the run with different bosses being more or less difficult depending on what weapons you used plus all weapons felt like they could take you to the end and were viable
I have not been clickbaited. These are the biggest mistakes. Make awesome mechanics popular again!
I wonder what a world of more fromsoftware games with these back would be like?
@@EvanExplains it would be a steeper learning curve with many more build options and chances for exploratory storytelling.
Elden ring is the pinnacle of combat mechanics, you can't get any better than what that gave us.
That being said Bloodborne is by far my favourite souls game due to the aesthetic within the masterpiece atmosphere and the way it really tied insight and whatnot into the story and made it work especially the amygdala reveals etc.
But you're lying to yourself if you think it's better mechanics than elden ring.
It has to stand on its own due to the firearms which are beautiful and brilliant designs but they don't fit into a souls game.
Now imagine Elden ring but adding early industrial firearms that still fit the aesthetic of an old world now that would be a game to triumph over anything else in history
@@SH19922xwhat?! It's dark souls combat with overpowered weapon arts, likely included to justify making the end game bosses so stupidly OP. Elden is good and all, but it's firmly their 2nd worst game (DS2 is the worst)
If you're going for full strength or perhaps a quality build, the saw cleaver is actually better than the saw spear.
And regarding the point that "people compliment Sekiro *by a lot* for the combat system but you don't see them doing the same for Bloodborne", the only thing I can say is to take a look at Lies of P.
I don't think there's a better way to compliment a game.
I pretty much see the night/day mechanic as a good replacer, but they didn't expand on it that much. Fun things like defeating a specific enemy during night with a moon-related weapon, an NPC only appearing to pray to the moon etc.
The rallying mechanic was not completely abandoned. If you equip Malenja's great rune, it is literally just that. I have to admit it would have been nice to be able to have this earlier in-game though
That rune is a complete joke, you can't build around it for multiple reasons
@@pilot3605 examples?
@@evilme789Well doesn’t it make your flash of crimson tears heal you less?
@@evilme789The healing from the rune is a joke and the game isn’t made with rallying in mind. Bosses have interchangeable, near infinite combos that punish Bloodborne level aggression. There’s more to Bloodborne than just rallying .
The Champions Ashes mod for ds3 actually managed to add trick weapons perfectly they even have weapon arts to accompany them
Yeah, he mentioned cinders. I was immediately thinking "What about ashes?"
I think the most disturbing thing is it took me about 5-6 years of inconsistent play to figure out this game but now I can literally take a month or a year off and play excellent because the games mechanics are so unique and distinct. This is the only game that can make me rage quit but, learn my lesson and I play weird ass games like Vanquish and Quantum Theory.
One way to fix these mistakes is to give us a remaster/remake of Bloodborne or a sequel, I'd settle for either 😊
Also Lies of P pays homage to Bloodborne transforming weapons with one of its weapons that transforms from a great sword into a glaive each with a different move set and special attacks.
They can't. The contractual stuff for the game is too backwards. It's stuck on PS4, forever. Sony were so embarrassed about not taking Dark Souls when offered, that they really over done it with the Blood Borne. Not only can it never be ported to PC or Xbox, but it can't even be ported from PS4 to PS5.
The game is doomed. Only way we get anything like it is a spiritual successor.
@awoken8infinite That's why I also said sequel.
That said Sony ported all their exclusives to PC including God of War, Uncharted, The Last of Us, Spiderman and Horizon Zero Dawn...not sure why you think it's impossible for them to do that with Bloodborne which wasn't even developed by an in-house studio like those other games!?
@@AscendantStoic You're wrong for 1 reason. Japan Studio. It was folded into Team Asobi. From Soft may have done most of the work but JStudio/Team Asobi has the rights under Sony.
@sanguinetales I still don't see the issue here, how is that any different from Naughty Dog or any of the other devs working under Sony making exclusives for them!?
@@awoken8infinitedude fromsoft doesn't own the game thats pretty basic contract language Sony has to contract them for another one since it's their ip. And fromsoft might turn that down.
That’s the thing, I agree with you but elden ring was made to make it easier for new players.
Which is why the ng+ isn’t that hard compared to other fromsoft games, I hate that a lot of things from bloodborne didn’t make it into other games.
I even enjoyed the finite amount of healing items, I feel like it gave another use for your currency.
Like the choice wasn’t only do I want to buy a new item or level up, it then became do I want to grind for blood vials, buy them, level up, or buy this new item.
Plus if you go into the game blind there are so many moments you don’t know where to go, those moments lead into either grinding for healing or exploring.
Which I think helps the hunter aspect of the game, and feel like you are who the people are truly scared of.
Elden Ring is supposed to be easier, but I had a better time fighting in Bloodborne than in Elden Ring. (I held a death counter for when i fight bosses. I have more death against Margit (125) and Godrick (62) than Cleric Beast (only 3)
@@aryaeliadel3094 elden ring is made to be easier due to its many ways to achieve victory, and different types of things you could use.
I’m gonna guess Elden ring was your first fromsoft game and chalk up your personal death count experience to that.
Cause my death count to Margit and Godrick combined to 4 (no ashes) while cleric beast took me 10 different attempts( even though it’s technically an optional boss).
Now father gascoigne, that man took a min, his aggression was so different compared to other things plus his second phase.
@@Atum_Kami Yes it was my first even if i started Bloodborne first but i don't really have access to PS4. But I also prefere to do the boss without any outside help, just me and my sword against the boss. So i sometimes struggle and some are easier. I think Margit and Godrick prepared me to Cleric Beast in a way. and sometimes i just die stupidly.
From my experience NG+ in any Souls game is the "revenge tour".
Yes, the enemies have a bit more health and do a bit more damage, but you are way more powerful at that point.
Not only have you beaten the game once already, but you have an endgame build and a maxed weapon (or 5).
Imagine if they had a similar system to insight in AC6, it could've increased number of hits you could execute with melee weapons; increase accuracy with ranged weapons, and considering how some of the weapons move when activating making them be transformable really isnt that far of a stretch.
Bloodborne embraces you, calls to you and reminds you how amazing it is everytime you come back. You become the hunter all over again. And it feels new every time. I never fought a boss twice thinking it was gonna be the same feeling. Bloodborne reminds you that it’s not. I love this game from the bottom of my heart.
Damn, the Church Pick gets punked and the Burial Blade doesn’t even get a mention…
I love the rifle spear, such a satisfying moveset, the cane is also pretty fun. The reiterpallasch is super disappointing tho
Bloodborne is my all time favorite game. You are correct the combat system is far superior to Elden Ring and Dark Souls. I remember the first time I say Amy on the cathedral. It blew my mind how much creepier the game got the more I played it. But the Rally system is in Elden Ring. Malenia's Great Rune is basically the rally system. It's just a shame you don't get it until the end of the game.
The Latin Spoken during some of the music tracks is amazing.
I have played Bloodborne since its launch many times. However, I was not aware of the dramatic effect that insight can have on the player. FromSoftware is so masterful in their work that discoveries continue to be made, whether by a new player or a soulsborne veteran.
Blud watched 0 lore video about his favourite video game😂💀
@@muramasa870 I know where you live
Don’t you need 50 to beat the game? It’s been years so I could be wrong
@@miisher no you don't need insight to beat the game. however, after you beat Rom you gain the knowledge that 40 insight would normally do because defeating that boss unleashes all the secrets of the world. it's why amagdelas become visible
I love this dude .. bringing back boodborne lore in a fresh new way still after almost 10 years .. and I’m here for it !
Had me at the title not gonna lie
The way Miyazaki feels about BB & how beloved the game is I am very surprised him & Sony hasn’t had a few convos discussing potential future content! (Obviously he’s very busy too) That being said even if we never see a BB sequel that takes nothing away from how amazing this game is but if we ever do see a part 2 the sheer amount of hype & excitement would probably cause our heads to explode!
God damn, watching this video just made me remember what an absolute epic concept the trick weapons were. They were so freaking fun to play. Would love to see them make their triumphant return.
I recently beat thr game again on stream in just 10H no prep fresh save. And im now doing the DLC .
Sony owns the IP to BB so unless BluePoint's has the greenlight for the Remake we're not going see a BB Remaster/Remake any time soon.
Japan Studio doesn't even exist anymore and it's properties & staff were transfered to Team Asobi(owned by Sony)
Awww I liked the cane! Took it through the whole game. Great range at a quick pace.
Don't get me wrong, I put 300 hours into Elden Ring but find it hard to pick it back up. Bloodborne however, any day I can boot it back up and do the same builds I've always done. I pray BB gets a PC port!
Bruh the grunts while trying to dodge the giant sharks😂 too accurate
the sharks can stay in bloodborne
Talking about Elden Ring in a Bloodborne vid while playing DS2 music. I like it
My dude, I love how you went from explaining Destiny history, to explaining the Soulslike games history 😀
Been a viewer of yours for many years, but only just recently discovered you have a second channel.
That's a bold strategy Cotton let's see if it pays off for him.
Does insight cause the dream to catch fire? I thought it happened after defeating mergos wetnurse(if im remembering bosses correctly).
It happens no matter what but I believe it happens at the insight level for the song
No, senile old Gehrman left the stove on.
I haven't played it for a while, but the weapons also had different styles, reminiscent of whoever created it, this is very incredible, and I really cry with sadness for not having this game on the PC
I’ve beaten Dark Souls 1 and 3, I 100%’d Elden Ring and Sekiro, I’m playing PS3 Demon’s Souls on PC currently, and I already own the remake to play afterwards. Then, if there still isn’t ER DLC or a Bloodborne remaster or port available, I’m gonna play DS2. Hopefully, after all of that, God will answer my prayers and someone will make Bloodborne playable on a PS4 emulator if nothing else. It’s the only Fromsoft game I refuse to play until there is a 60fps patch, PC port, or emulator that can run it, because everything I’ve heard about it makes me want to play it at the best possible fidelity and framerate. Cheers to the great people working hard to make it playable on PS4 emulation as we speak. Godspeed.
“I have special eyes I cannot look at 30 fps”
@@dirtsquids9854to be fair, it’s really rough in the beginning. It took me 2-3 hours to get used to it
The biggest mistake is the fact that this game is not on PC after 8 mtfk years
Your intro reminds me of the Scary Door show from Futurama 😂
16:02 The saw cleaver is by faaaar the best weapon in the game.
Excellent points actually.
Insights on Elden Ring sure sounds fun but the game is so large due to being open world that I’d assume they’ll be cutting corners to fit it.
Amazing video !
I prefer Elden Ring weapons for several reasons: 2 handing, powerstancing, off hand weapons, interchangeable AoWs, unique AoWs, jump attacks, duck attacks, blocking, guard counters.
As a HUGE blood borne fan ER just shits all over it build variety wise. It is NOT a quality vs quantity thing. ER has just as good weapons and infinitely more variety. Also magic is ass in BB. And again, i love BB.
I do agree with you that the trick weapons and (somewhat under-utilized) insight system are what make Bloodborne special. To me, there’s no denying that fewer weapons with more versatility is preferable over multitudes of similar weapons. However I don’t think not carrying these things over to other games is a “mistake”. I’m reminded by the quotes from Miyazaki from the recent DonDonRV making of videos, where ‘Zaki said of Dark Souls/Elden Ring that the idea is to offer as many options as possible to invite variation in character builds. I *think* this is part of the reason we haven’t seen trick weapons again… yet! I do hold hope that fewer weapons will return in the future! In the meantime, there are two weapons in Lies of P that transform, worth a look.
How is the insight mechanic under utilized?
I don’t know why you say the pizza cutter was a missed opportunity. Yes, it’s popular for the speed run glitch but as soon as I found it in Elden ring, I used it for the rest of the game because it had the same stagger potential from bloodborne and a really good bleed effect (plus it was super fun to use). It missed nothing to me.
Also the saw cleaver is literally the best weapon in the game pretty much, with anything higher dps having drawbacks in other forms. All speed runs use it because it has high dps with lower stamina use and it’s transform attack does massive limb damage very quickly. Maybe saw spear is a slight upgrade but usually not worth the rework of your stats from strength to skill.
The saw clever is the best speedrun weapon because it does what a lot of the others can do damage wise but it’s early so you don’t waste time getting a better weapon
I disagree with the stat change on the Saw spear, that weapon is literally at central yharnam anyways, soo you have barely leveled Up ( at most what, 6-7 levels, asuming you got It after killing cleric beast, which is not even a mandatory Boss ), though is true that, if you want to speedrun the Game, is not worth the extra time, but for a casual playthrough, It is a bit better
It’s definitely a lot worse tbf but yeah not bad either it’s worst trait was being quality which is dog in elden ring
The main reason Saw Cleaver is the best is its DPS at shredding beast bosses, on top of the transform attack causing both limb damage and building up the beast meter fast. Not even Whirlygig or LHB compares overall.
As for Saw Spear, it's technically better, but not practically better. Its edge is doing beast bonus damage in both forms, but Cleaver has higher AR, unless you go full quality with 99/99 Str/Skill, or close to it. Even then, it's barely higher AR than Cleaver. Less than 10 points.
If I remember correctly, the Bloodletter only gives you Frenzy if you use the L2 attack in its transformed mode.
How did u make the game run so smooth?
Cool video. I've never seen your channel before, but this showed up in my recommend feed, and I enjoyed it.
Also, I know no one else likes it, but I will forever sing the praises of the Reiterpallasch. It's a thrusting weapon, which kin are weak too. It's a projectile weapon that can still be buffed with fire paper and bolt paper, unlike the Rifle Spear. You can bait fast enemies into an easy parry by attacking twice with it in its transformed state and then shooting with it. Two attacks frequently makes the AI want to attack you, so you get an easy parry. If you go heavy on Bloodtinge, you can still buff your left hand gun with the Bone Marrow Ash and do a normal damage parry with the right hand gun. This will put the enemy in a staggered state, which still makes them take extra damage from any attack, not just a visceral. That Bone Marrow Ashed Evelyn does so much damage that way.
The Reiterpallasch is not the most powerful weapon, especially since if you go Bloodtinge the Chikage is right there, but it'll still be my favorite FromSoft weapon.
i have a very specific thing i look for in a game. 1) the ability to roll when im not locking into an enemy, then side stepping when im locking into an enemy. 2) parrying. any games that has these mechanics easily becomes my fav games lol and bloodborne has it all. really love the rallying system too
You should play Lies of P then if you haven’t already. It has roll when not locked on and a side step when you locked on. Parry and a rally system!
As much as i like the rally mechanic, I think its best for bloodborne to keep it
*Saif is the most underrated weapon in Bloodborne.*
Although unserrated it still has very decent damage, but thats not the best part:
It has hands down THE best combo in the game - start with the first R1 which rushes in with a stride whilst hitting at the same time, this hits far too fast for enemies to counter, then spam R1 a few times to land a fluid set of blows, finally as your stamina runs out hit the transform attack which causes you to dash away whilst landing a wicked long range blow on the way out. Rinse and repeat.
It gets better: This thing literally has the same stagger as the freaking Kirkhammer, but moves as fast as a cleaver! The tricked curved greatsword form has an unusually massive amount of stagger, going as far as stun-locking winter lanterns from full hp to already dead.
It gets better yet: this weapon has a unique attack animation that's only accessible through a locked-on left-side quickstep. The usual quick step attack slashes diagonally upward from bottom right to top left. However, this unique animation is a horizontal slash from left to right. It is a purpose made crowd control move and also works great on agile bosses or in PVP.
On top of even all THAT, it has access to ALL the forms of physical damage in the game all in its moveset with a thrust on the tricked form, blunt on charged attacks, and slash on the untricked attacks.
For PVP the lunging and retreating attacks make it hands down the best weapon. They literally doubled my effectiveness -no other weapon can close the distance or retreat out of range faster. It also rollcatches enemies something silly.
Finally it's charge attack is borderline o/p.
I cannot recommend upgrading a saif and trying it out more.
You doubt the threaded pimp cane? You definitely need to gain more insight.
Heavily versatile with speedy dash attacks finishing with a strong whip attack when the enemy got out their weapon range.
I LOVE BLOODBOURNE I LOVE BRITISH PEOPLE #BONGOBILKS
Love Reiterpilash & blades of mercy.. possibly my favorites over Chikagae or holy blade.. don't forget Fist of Gretia... the cannons, the gatling gun, just recently I finally tried out the piercing rifle.
I think Metroid Prime 2 would have been a larger inspiration on Lords of the fallen's dark world, as it uses the exact same mechanic.
Reiterpallasch is "RY-tuh-PAHL-ahsh". My German is spotty, but it means "rider's ". It's a cavalier's pistol-sword; they actually experimented with the idea for the Prussian dragoons way back, to make a functional cavalry sword with a pistol barrel alongside the base of the blade. The technology of the time achieved only...limited success, as the extra heft of the flintlock threw off the sword's balance and reloading it proved unwieldy and impractical in field testing.
I loved bloodborne, absolutely amazing game, no idea why Sony has not ported it to pc, it is money on the table, I would buy that in a heart beat.
thank you john levan another banger
I also think that the spells(hunter tools) in bloodborne are better than in elden ring
As good as the rally mechanic was, it wouldnt have made sense in Elden Ring just as it doesnt make sense in Lies of P.
In Bloodborne, you regain lost health because youre getting covered in beast blood, healing your wounds. The other stories i mentioned just don't have the lore to support that.
Evannnn. I agree with everything in this great vid besides my beloved Church Pick. The transform combo is soooo good. I’ve played every From game since demon souls and most of the “soulslikes” tho I hate that term and bloodbornes weapons are ina class of their own. So many of the weapons aren’t just viable but fun and come with their own unique play styles. Bloodborne is just an absolute artful masterpiece of video gaming.
Yeah, Bloodborne weapons were definitely the best From have ever made (imho of course). Weird how this is the only one Sony have kept locked up though. Given the overwhelming success of ER, it would be crazy of Sony from a business perspective not to do anything with it, especially seeing as they've recently started making pc ports for lots of their other exclusives. We can but live in hope.
Sony are only interested in their stupid cinematic games and milking them dry, they clearly don't have any interest in innovation anymore.
I actually enjoyed parrying in blood borne, too. I never parry in Dark Souls. The gun parries were awesome.
@@awoken8infinitewait how the hell u beat Gwynn then without parrry😂
@@awoken8infinite I agree! The gun parrying was/ is so satisfying! It never get old.
Because it's the same as demons souls it's more of a thing Sony did to get a certain fanbase to buy their product if they released it on PC it really wouldn't be that successful people say they'd buy it but it's been out since 2015 and while successful wasn't that successful
I main a whirligig and was indeed insulted by ghizas wheel
I do need to mention that the Threaded Cane is the only starter weapon that can cheese Father Gascoigne to make the fight much easier. However, it falls off pretty hard after Vicar Amelia.
u dont need the cane lmao. ive done it everytime 2 handing the axe or spear. Take ur time and just hit R2
@GodofPookies I didn't know those could do it, but u need a badge for the saw spear so I don't consider it to be a "starting weapon". I consider it to be an early weapon though. Normally I just swtich to LHB afterwards anyway since it carried me through the platinum lol
@@HotSauceMan46 Props to you for platinuming the game. I’m shocked ur only realizing this now lmao. I’ve had it platinumed for atleast 3 years now
@GodofPookies I didn't start playing the game until a month or 2 after Elden Ring came out. Once I saw that there was a pimp cane, I never really used anything else until I got to the dlc on my first playthrough 😂😂
The only mistake is it being on Playstation only with pretty bad framepacing...
Needs a PC port ASAP to fix the mistake!
Their biggest mistake was not letting you respec in Bloodborne. I mean, seriously, the leveling system for this game is kinda busted but nobody talks about it.
To be clear, Bloodborne is one of my favorite games of all time. But i can only imagine just how much more i would love it if i didnt have to know exactly what weapon i was going to build for from the very start of the game. Plus, in a game with so few weapons, trying to build for a specific weapon you're interested in will basically bar you out of being effective until you get that weapon. So if you don't build for any of the first few weapons of the game and instead want to try out something in the late game, you're gonna have a very bad time until the late game, then you'll be much more effective very suddenly. Just put respeccing in all RPGs; its not hard.
bro had me seething with that mf title.
Bloodbourne is the pinnacle of the soulsbourne series
You missed a golden opportunity for the music here. You should've just used the ps4 homescreen music, seeing as how we haven't gotten a remaster or a pc port for Bloodborne.
15:10 aw come on, you can use the Reiterpallasch paired with a Cannon, use the Reiterpallasch to parry and then wreck a fool with a bone ashed cannon.
Their biggest mistake was making it PlayStation exclusive and not allowing pc or Xbox gamers to enjoy it
insight is basically just world tendency
The Moonlight Greatsword could also do a double backstab
Bloodborne and “mistake” do not belong in the same sentence under any circumstance.
Does nobody else think it was a mistake not to have critical hit animations for each of these weapons and their transformations? I do not like the hand reaching in and doing a squeeze or whatever. I cannot believe other people don’t get bothered by this. Especially since all of the weapons are *so* cool
Why did he remind me of orphan of kos's scream when he yelled yess😂 5:43
I really hate those fish monsters 😂
The trick weapons were inovative and we have never seen them before!
Sony owning the Bloodborne might extend to subsystems like insight and trick weapons. Meaning even if they wanted to, From might not be able to use those systems. Doubly so because they worked with sony.
Bloodborne is the true masterpiece fromsoft made
Hopefully there will be a Bloodborne something next year with the 10th anniversary
I gotta say it makes me really happy people are talking about bloodborne a game that came out 8 years ago still talked about to this day. This game is a future classic.
my favorite game of all time
@@EvanExplains same
Imagine combining Inside with the effects from Eternal Darkness..
From Software big mistake was signing that exclusivity deal with Sony, now bloodborne is stuck in the ps4 for god nows how long
Worst mistake is making it exclusive to Sony
Bloodborne actually has a lot of weapons compared to souls games, if you consider that not that many weapons are really different weapons. Yeah, those twenty straight swords sure look different, but in no way they change anything about how you play. DS3 has 19 melee weapon types, and some weapons with unique animations. It doesn't really matter which greatsword you use, the difference is that some of them are just worse and they scale from different stats
Insight was awesome. I also liked the world and character tendency of demons souls which is similar.
fromsoft should have had certain boss weapons in Elden ring be trick weapons
can't wait for Fromsoftware's next game. I know they don't like sequels and Elden Ring felt like a fan-service game, so I can't wait for them to pull another Bloodbournne/Sekiro on us with a whole new thing, with it's entirely own concept. That's where From shines the most
I think im fine with the rallying mechanic going. Now, hear me out. The rallying mechanic is useful and cool for sure, but its also thematic.
The hunter is not the protagonist of from softs other games, often underdogs, often meant to be normal(ish) people rising against the dark worlds they are a part of. But in bloodborne, the hunter is not a hapless underdog. For the hunter, the beasts are trapped with him. In from software's other titles the player contends to falling into despair, their main thing is to keep fighting through shear force of will. But the hunter contends with the exact opposite. Hunters fight to contend with innate bloodlust. The fallen heroes of other fromsoft games go mad with despair, the hunter turns into a ravenous beast. The rallying mechanic reflects that, pushes the player to take on the role of a mad man lashing out at enemies wildly.
11:00 To be fair love craft in themes have always been a big part of demon souls on
In almost all my runs of BB, I always picked the pimpstick as my starter weapon. I found the saw to be much more boring.
Tonitrus was my main and favorite trick weapon 👍👍👍
I playing lies of p right now & I also like the weapon system here
The biggest mistake was making it a PlayStation exclusive.
I have a platinum on Bloodborne, and I don't remember that katana at all. As someone that's been playing since Demon's Souls on the PS3, well before Dark Souls came out, I do like Elden Ring the most. I honestly was never a fan of the few weapons in Bloodborne. I gave other weapons a go but never liked them, I wasn't a fam of using the same weapon all the way through because I couldn't find anything I liked more. I used the axe you get at the start, and even then, I didn't like it that much. I just got good at timing the charged heavy and it was super effective due to the knock back.
There’s something that has bothered me with Elden Ring. It’s that there’s a lot less unique melee compared to DS2 and DS3. I make those comparisons because it’s the ones it’s most like.
In DS3 you had the Aquamarine Dagger, Friede’s Scythe, Valorheart, BKGA, Farron GS, Dancers Blades. DS2 had the Blue Flame, Puzzle Sword, Syan’s Halbert, Loyce GS, Warped Sword.
The list goes on but how do you introduce more weapons than those games. But cut back on actually making them different? If not new had moves based on the enemy you got them from.
A prime example is Radahn’s Ultras and the Ringed Knight Ultras. RKU outside of the WA have moves based off the enemy. As where Radahn’s weapon shares the same L1 as any other paired Ultras.
You can count the number of unique movesets on 1 hand in ER. They really let WA’s just be the differentiating factor now. And I blame this on the open world part of the game.
If you make it so massive you gotta fill it out with more stuff. You can’t afford to make everything so different there’s only so much time you’ve got. Like I was floored to find ER has zero casting weapons.
You make the magic system more robust but add zero casting weapons? Even DS2 and DS3 had those in their base games. It’s a real shame too because I consider casting weapons. To be some of the coolest stuff in all Fromsoft games.
Where’s my Demon Scar? I hope but I’m also certain ER’s DLC will fix this it must!
Yep. Played them all. Even outsiders like Nioh and Lies Of P. But no game, absloutely no game, can touch Bloodborne. Best OST, most likeable bosses (hard but fair), eccelent lore, few but very fun and very different weapons. I could go on forever. But to sum it up, Ive done speedruns, BL4 runs, 300 + FRC Chalice runs, all achievement runs. And I never get tired!. If that isnt near a perfect game, I dont know what is.
I mean, I look forward to Elden Ring DLC, but Id rather have Bloodborne Prequel, where we see Gehrman, Maria and Kos in all its glory.
I can't believe they never used vagrants again, so unique
