I'm enjoying this more than Demon's Souls already. Reached the first lantern, got enough blood echoes to grab the first 4 pieces of gear, decided to call it a night. The only thing I don't like so far is when an enemy gets the jump on me... I always squeal like a little girl. The worst one is when I read a note that literally said "ambush" and I thought I was clever by immediately taking the guy out... only to get a jumpscare from another dude hiding on a staircase right next to me.

Also... the enemies don't respawn after you've killed them, right? I feel like they don't but sometimes I get surprised by someone running into me in a spot I thought I cleared out. Maybe I just suck though.
 
Here I am all bloodied up after having escaped from the giant wolf in the beginnning, which put me up against my first two foes that you see on the ground, dead. I still havn't found a damn weapon, though!!

Anyone else getting "starting game in offline mode since it's not fully installed?"

In my download list it shows bloodborne as installed and the update file as installed.....

Is there somewhere you can see if a game is being installed or not??

They don't respawn but unlike previous Souls games they patrol and wander around, so they may suddenly show up in a spot you previously thought you had cleared
 
At least so far, I think combat is a downgrade from dark souls. Taking the shield away just takes away a gameplay option for players. The parry system is pretty much unchanged. The trick weapons are nifty, but there's already enough offense in the game without it.

Just my impression so far, don't roast me too much.

In the system menu, hit options on the bloodborne icon

Yeah, either the lanterns are very well hidden or they're spaced a bit far apart so far. Not a big deal so far but it is noticeable.

You gotta find the shortcuts. The very first lantern has a gate you can open up to access it from a further point in the level.
 
So...help me out here guys, this is my first "souls" type game. I went back to the alter after killing most the grunts on the ground, and there was the guy in the chair talking about the alter.

Well, I was being silly and swung my axe around and he disappeared...so..uh, am I screwed, do I need to start over or what?
 
Ok, I spent an hour and a half just creating my character, and I'm not even close to be satisfied. This char creator is much harder to use than Dark Souls II's >_<

But I really wanna play, so I'll just deal with it for now and try harder on my next character.

arent you supposed to die to the wolf so you can get your weapons?

Whaaat? I saw a giant wolf in front of me and he was pouncing on me, I dodged and just ran the fuck away. Didn't want to get killed right at the beginning. Well fuck me lol that's a weird way to give you your first weapon.

Though I guess it is similar to the way Demon's Souls started. But I'm mostly sure that you still had a weapon on you when you "had" to die at that point.

If you get to the hub you'll be able to get your weapons anyway, just find a lantern.

Did you exit the game and then go back in? He might have moved spots and may still be friendly. Did the guy say anything when you hit him? In Souls games, you can attack and anger NPCs to the point that they will permanently be aggro'd and you'll have to kill them. You usually could get away by hitting them once by accident, and they'd complain. But do it too many times and they will start to fight back.
 
Oh I'm gonna spend hours on character creation. I always take that feature VERY serious. I already have the character in mind who I'm gonna make my creation as....
