BLOODBORNE Spoiler Thread (read OP)

It's kind of frustrating watching players REFUSE to use weapon transformations when it gives an obvious AOE benefit. I think that newbie players are going to have a slight advantage of not having pre-set habits to not use all the mechanics.
 
Much of the information was already out there though. It was either written in Japanese, or you had to simply watch someone in Japan playing it. Just saying that the Wikis for the games that came after were out much sooner in English due to the release date and how many people were actually playing them.

I agree with the latter points. But early importers were playing and experiencing the same thing as the Japanese release players. Same release dates for Asian version (English), Feb 5 09. Not trying to argue here, the point is importers were experiencing a really fresh game, which the later wiki's were able to build upon. Not to mention the lack of dev/pub support for DeSo compared to DaSo+. That's why the English wiki was so quick to 'appear" for DaSo and beyond. Considering the absorption rate of the series now Bloodbornes wiki will probably be a quick turnaround as well, the more I think about it. The series is just so different now compared to when DeSo first came out and was imported.
 
Holyshit guys I am so hyped right now and I cannot believe that I will play this game tomorrow. Yoshichan, wanna fly over to me and play the game to death with me?! Germany also has Döner Kebab which is very tasty... :-)

I would also like to join this bloodborne kebab party

I have prepared myself the whole week for this:

- Cleaned every corner of my apartment
- Payed every bill in advance
- Washed my clothes
- Changes everything that requires change after a time (like bed sheets)
- Bought food for two weeks (Kebab, Pizza, Icecream, vegetables with dips etc.)
- Reminded everyone to not contact me in these days
- Test 2 different setups and have a backup setup if my normal setup fails
- Got a backup headset

I still feel not prepared for dieing though.

Local retailers, for me in Hamburg, Im also getting it tomorrow.

Also from HappyGamer? :)
 
does bloodborne kinda remind anyone of legend?

Ok, I don't go through such an extensive ritual, but it's funny how many people also share that need to have their houses as clean as possible when a new anticipated game is coming out. I guess it's the fear we won't feel like doing anything else for a few days?

Nya well I do this everytime when a good game releases, because

- I don't want to pay attention to anything else that needs my time
- I feel way more comfortable and happy when everything is clean in general

For a game liks this I need to prepare myself. :)

Yeah, agreed. :)

Lol. Glad I'm not the only one. I hate dust so generally I try to dust and wipe down everything bi weekly at least. But if I know a game is coming out soon I do it before so nothing else is distracting me. I'm in a much better mood when my home is clean.
 
Like these ones...!




Lol no, Game Castle near central station...didnt even know about HappyGamer and its waaaay closer to where i live in Hamburg, thx for the tip! ;-)

Ahh lol, I always get my Games from GamesCastle too back then. How much do you have to pay? I pay 60€ at HappyGamers and GamesCastle was always more expensive.

My man, I'm seriously considering this! I have Fri-Sun off... Are you close to an airport?

PM details!!!!

Edit; if you were serious, of course!!
 
holy shit, I might fly to Germany to play this for a few hours
 
I thought they sucked in DS2? At least I think I remember reading that very early on, I guess they got buffed?

Strike > Pierce > Slash for PvE. For PvP DEX weapons in general, but especially shit like Chaos Blade (Katana) and Ice Rapier were extremely strong.

I agree with the latter points. But early importers were playing and experiencing the same thing as the Japanese release players. Same release dates for Asian version (English), Feb 5 09.

I'm not sure we are actually disagreeing about anything. I wasn't actually factoring in importers, which is why I mentioned the delay of the Western release.

Sorry if this has been asked but are there areas on this like the souls games where you can access early in the game but where you will be totally under equipped for. Uber beasties etc. A bit like the skeleton path from firelink shrine in DS.

Thanks for mentioning the path I took the first time playing Dark Souls. My thoughts were "Okay, this is pretty fucking hard for my level...this can't be right?". I actually ended up in the Tomb of Giants before giving up on that area at like level 10 or something. Also, underequipped is just a matter of difficulty or skill level since many players would do SL1 runs in the previous games.

Yes. It's good to knock that stuff out so you aren't thinking about how lazy you are while ignoring it for days while playing the new hotness.
 
Yoshi! Webhallen has my CE in processing. Ahhhh I'm excited!
Holy fucking shit

gonna check my order when I get home

I can't fucking believe I'll be the last guy to play this fucking game

Yeah, hes quite expensive and hes not a really reliable imo. He once tried to sell me a used game copy as a new one and since then I havent bought a game from him. But well its Bloodborne and he gets it early...;-)

Im currently trying to contact HappyGamer to reserve a copy for me (I would be more than happy to support him and not Game Castle), but he doesnt pick up...:-(
 
Why don't you just buy one now off Sweden's (you are from Sweden, right?) equivalent of Craigslist?
I don't even know any equiviliant sites... are we talking like, sites where private people put up stuff for sale?
 
I just got home from school

Wtf is going on out here... i swear, everything and everyone is trying to ruin my bloodborne experience :( watch how I won't have any electricity come BB launch

 
Just thought about something:

I really hope that share play is disabled in this game. For multiple reasons:

Can't beat a boss? Share playing would allow someone better to do it for you, which would result in never improving.

It would also open that person up to significant risk, because I can already smell the trolls who will run straight to the NPCs and murder all of them.

Don't do it, From.

They could die to the boss once, and while you're at the bathroom during the loading screen they delete your save files :p

Why does it matter how other people finish the game. If they want to share play let them do it. It does not hamper your experience.
