BLOODBORNE Spoiler Thread (read OP)

Some sad stuff in Mendrox stream :(

Question about NPC's:
After reaching the Cathedral with the guy can you take previous NPC's to the safe haven there?
 
so am I the only one who has noticed (WARNING: POSSIBLY A VERY ANNOYING THING ONCE YOU NOTICE, EVEN THOUGH IT'S JUST A GRAPHICAL EFFECT)
that FROM added fake character lighting? What i mean is in this first area of the game, you can see a blueish light being shined on the right side of the characters and enemies, and it's ALWAYS on the right side, it's not lighting from any actual lights so it looks weird :/ It seems to change depending on the area you're in thankfully, most areas don't look as weird as the first area from what I've seen.

I know, it's a weird ass thing to be annoyed by, I hate that I inspect everything to such detail...lol
 
I've yet to see people have a hard time with this game, what's wrong with me. I guess everytime I tune in somebody is re running a past stage while being overleveled.
 
I can't wait for Bloodborne so I bought Battlefield: Hardline. At least it will make me forget for a bit that some people are already playing.

:_(
 
I'm jealous of everyone who got it early, but I'm also happy I'm waiting since there seems to be pieces of the game that are cut or not functioning in the game at the moment. I would rather experience the game as intended on release day.

That being said, I do have a small mom & pop game store that would sell it to me now, but I'd rather use that BB GCU membership and get it cheaper.
 
It better not be or the build options will boil down to STR/Arcane or Skill/Arcane

When talking about builds does endurance and vitality not come into play? Would someone not opt for a Skill/Endurance build or do builds only refer to: Str, Arcane, Skill and Bloodtinge?

I plan to go Skill/Bloodtinge. Apparently the
Katana
scales with Bloodtinge with a C so there might be more.

This is my thinking right now, I just want to find a good firearm also. It does not look like anyone is using the repeating pistol and I want to know what it looks like
 
After you meet the first boss ( don't have to win), go back and the doll will be alive and will level you up.

Ahhhh ok. So another question. Is this like souls where if I die, that enemy has my exp. If I die again. Those get erased, and the new enemy that killed me has it? I ask cause I swear I died a few times and got back to a prior enemy that killed me, not the last one, and I got exp. back. Maybe I'm just imagining things.

The bloodstain on the ground has your xp, if you die before getting to it it's gone forever.
 
Got the game early and a friend in another state is unsure if she wants to pick it up. Does anyone know if I'll be able to shareplay a stream to her without it getting shut down, or is that a big no from Sony? (It might get them another sale! It's in their best interest!)

Yes if you die an enemy can either absorb your exp, ( you'll know by it being the one with glowing eyes) or your bloodstain will be on the ground to pick up. If you die before getting it, then it's lost for good. I don't think the one that kills you is necessarily the one that picks it up, so maybe that's what happened?
 
Does anyone know if you can throw the
rock/fast ass possibly ninja stars
that the
Crow Hunter
used against you in your fight against him. That shit was so fast. It wasn't the pebble you can throw in the game.
 
Does anyone know what the bold hunters mark does? It says awaken anew without losing blood souls. Does that mean if I die and lose my souls, I can use it to get them back without having to go kill the enemy that has it?

yep,
sometimes another enemy can pick up the blood echoes aside from the one that killed you if they're in the same area.
pretty neat mechanic imo

I wouldn't think so - it sounds more like a way of teleporting back to the last lantern you used while preserving your blood echoes, like what the homeward bone does in the Souls games.
 
I am really not that great at these sorts of games but the mood and style of everything keeps me going. Really enjoying it so far - digging the changes to how your character handles in combat a whole lot.

A small local store in LA had a bunch of copies. Managed to snag the last one.

I'm already having difficulties with two large hounds that are on the bridge, which I believe leads to the first boss. Feels like Demon Souls, and the aggressive emphasis particularly with getting health back after damage feels great.

I started streaming to Twitch and after a few hundred viewers PSN kicked me repeatedly offline with a warning to read the terms and conditions.. woops.

No you use it to automatically spawn back to a lamp. I got stuck on a rock holding 25000 echoes and luckily remembered to use it to teleport me back

At the other end of the bridge, there should be an NPC that helps you fight the wolves off.
 
DAMN! How do so many people have this game already? What gives?
because apparently a lot of stores broke the d1. quite stupid
as for me, I'll leave the country in like 2 weeks and I'll be back only in July, watch me while I play 200 hours of this game in 10 days. also my ps+ ends the 30/03. welp
would have really liked that bonus time.
 
Not sure, just going off what I've seen other people say. I think it'd be weird if you didn't see him before
his boss fight, though.

edit:

Yup, still there!

There's a dude there near the stairs but he sorta looks likes a regular mob. Didn't watch too much Alpha gameplay so I'm not real certain one way or another :x
 
Scythe is
NG+

Is
NG+
not unlocked until Tuesday? I would think someone would have it by now.


Also:

Oh neat. Hope he has dialogue this time. Also strange:
If you can kill him on the bridge, does that mean no boss fight later on?
