Finally got around to playing Bloodborne. It's good, but after playing Elden Ring it seems easier than expected.

    Way easier than ER, but the atmosphere, music and the story are superb. Don't know how far along you are in it but the dlc has tougher fights, (and my all time favourite soulsborne boss. ) I hope you have a good time with it!

    I finished it and the dlc! The orphan was tricky. I don't think anything took more than five tries though. Hunter's axe is MVP.

    Definitely a good game. Interesting setting.

    Tried a bit of a new game with the cane sword and it's way less solid.

    Way to go!

    Who was your favourite boss?

    Oh, hard to pick! Maria was a good fight. I finished it by parrying her with the pistol, and then missed the critical attack so I just bonked her and she fell over. Still counts!

    Moon presence was also pretty cool, and felt like it was a few tweaks from being Really Hard. It does that move where your health goes down to 1 and you have to rally it all back! Luckily for me the axe is good for rallying, and the boss is very generous about waiting for you. Elden Ring feels like it wouldn't have given such a long recovery opening!

    Though not my favourite, I love the Lady María fight, and the research hall is also one of the best levels of the game. And Moon presence is suuuuch an awesome design, a really cool note to end the game on, even if it's a gimmick fight.
