Considering how the critics are a little stricter this gen, bloodborne can be better than the souls series. I did not expect this, honestly expected a target around 86-87.
Of course, the decision to be better or is not with you, but for many critics this is fact.

Some people will not be happy until they've won the console wars from their internet general's chair.
Even then, some people will never be happy.
Yeah, I see that now. Going back reading, it seems that this started because of Vire's comment I think. Then it turned to "PS4/Xbone only" and then "new IP only".
Maybe Bloodborne isn't the " first" of anything, just a game that reviewed really well. That should be enough at the end of the day.

Well this game looks decent I suppose...
Fantastic reviews, good job to From and everybody involved. Between Bloodborne and Ori I'd say we're turning the corner and starting to get some truly great games with this new generation. Here's to the year ahead.
I don't have a PS4 currently but this will be first in line when I pick one up. Need to stay on my relative media blackout though.

Haha, we've definitely had a double standard about the embargo lifting two hours before launch and slamming it for other games. People only seem to get pissed when the game doesn't do well otherwise the embargo gets a pass.
I have to say that I agree with him on the Blood Vials thing. I'm too used to Estus Flasks. Having to grind for more healing potions after a boss kept wrecking you kinda sucked.
I get why they did it though.
GTA V and Rayman Legends? TLOU Remaster, Diablo UEE, and Flower?
So it's like Dark Souls 2 with level interweaving?

Demon's Souls - 89
Dark Souls - 89
Dark Souls 2 - 91
Bloodborne - 93
Not that metascores are the end all be all - far from it - but there's something to be said for a studio that not only maintains a level of quality between its games, but consistently improves in quality with each game.

To be fair, 40 second load times are ridiculous.

Checkpoints before boss fights? LOL!
Tell that to a lot of souls fans. Dark Souls II is met with general ambivalence when I bring it up to my hardcore souls friends.
It is ridiculous, he's right in this case. I see gaffers complaining about this too.
I think the main factor in playtime of Miyazaki's games isn't the size of the game world, or explorable areas, or finding shortcuts. It's how often you die and have to retry.

Nice work killing that bullshit "bbbut greybrown" dismissal before the argument can even start, Jim. Kudos!

Noooo!! It looks more limited then D. Souls, and I was expecting something less limited! T-T
Yeah a game had to be really fucking good to get a pass for that

Different strokes for different folks. One person's dislike for something will not deter my enjoyment for it. Wars are for the insecure. If someone kept saying your SO was stupid would you dump them, fight them or just shake your head and walk away?
30 MINUTES
As for load times, sure, faster is better but after I get my butt handed to me I usually need a few to regroup and plan out my next move, anyway. Sometimes I need a little meditation in my dying lol

Its funny from went from being a nobody in the gaming industry, to one of the premier devs. Pretty cool

That first gripe is valid.
It's especially funny because Souls games are not even that hard. In any event, these games are not for everyone.

Glowing endorsements.
I hope it's hyperbole or I'm gonna have to invest in an SSD.
If you're constantly dying, it's very frustrating. Even more frustrating is the fact that in this game, you can't just warp from point to point. You have to warp to the hub (load time) then warp to the area you want (load time).
You eventually just kind of deal with it, but yeah, it's a reasonable complaint.
