This game will always have a special place in my heart. I had only just heard about FromSoft’s games and thought Bloodborne would be a great place to start since it is a stand alone title. In hindsight that was a terrible move, because this is the toughest of the soulsborne games. But at least playing the dark souls trilogy afterwards was a bit easier.
The Lovecraftian atmosphere, lore, and gameplay make this one of the greatest games of all time. The story is delivered as lore, leaving interpretation open to the community and FromSoft does an incredible job leaving details all around the gothic city of Yharnam for players to dissect. You will absolutely love running around and looking at the architecture while trying to not get devoured by the cities beasts. There is an awesome diversity of enemies to kill, while you explore and search for the next boss encounter. And the bosses in this game are pretty damn amazing.
You must get the DLC along with the base game, as it brings some of the best content. Again, this is a game for people that are looking for a challenge. Mastering bloodborne gave me satisfaction I haven't experienced from a game in a very long time, and every haunting hour was a total thrill. I highly recommend this game, 10/10. May the good blood guide your way.
