You call it cheese. I call it gravity.

But seriously I wanted an awesome fight with him and bam anti-climatic.

The dude is immensely difficult,
he spams his blunderbuss, so I returned the favor after trying to do it the legit way four times. Gravity is how almost all Disney villains die anyways. Revenge was sweet and no more gatling gun to interrupt the fight with the other Hunter.
 
Either Europeans on my time schedule arent playing a lot, or people arent wearing that many bells to help, but I've tried summoning a few times now to no avail.

Soloed the first two bosses though. It's always doable I suppose. You just get tired of loading screens :)

So,
Eileen the Crow
at Cathedral. Sometimes this NPC shows up and gives you a quest, sometimes he/she doesn't. Any one figured out the deal yet? I want that equipment.

I was laughing a few times watching the hunter run backwards. He was seriously trying to out maneuver something.
 
Third boss down.

This is my favorite game of the generation, so far, for sure.

Yep. It's been exceeding my expectations, not just in how it plays but the sheer talent and thoughtfulness in creating a world and atmosphere that is immaculately done inside out. I finally feel like I'm experiencing how I imagined my time with the new consoles would be like. Fuckin hell, Miyazaki.

I had to take my headphones off for the third boss, because it was too intense. Sound design is unreal.
 
Guys, I sent the old lady from that one house to
the cathedral ward
. After she arrived, I talked to the NPC there and he gave me something, but I accidentally clicked it away and now I don't have the slightest idea what it was O_o

Can anyone tell me?

But seriously, this boss was immediately one of the best in the whole series.

...come to think of it, so were boss 1 and the boss 2.

Game's batting 3 for 3 so far!
 
One thing I wished is that they created an item that would respawn the bosses. But I supposes thats what going through NG+ is for lol.
 
Played in one sitting up until
I died and was taken to a new location, right after climbing the cathedral
. If they iron out the load times and frame pacing, this will undoubtedly be a top 5 game for me. Even with those issues, it's still probably top 10. Bloodborne is everything I hoped for since the Project Beast leak.
 
Well, I just defeated the first boss (and was an hour late to work because of it). Definitely having a lot of fun so far. I'll have to upload a shot of my character later, dude looks awesome.

Just a new gesture. Access them by tapping on the left side of the DS4’s touchpad.
 
Ah, something else: Yesterday, I tried co-op. Rang my bell to be summoned in the area directly before the
cleric beast
. Got summoned somewhere, however the host was nowhere to be seen. He was doing something somewhere, as I constantly got a stream of souls.

Went about and tried to find him, but couldn't. Don't you spawn near the host when you join someone to help? Is there any way to locate the host when you joined him? This was much more intuitive in DeS and DS, as the host had to klick your sign and you spawned directly there.
 
Is the coop bell greyed out for anyone else right now? Trying to help my friend out but both of our bells are greyed out when trying to use.
 
So, online experience is locked until you have 10 insight? Pretty disappointed if true

No, you can summon when u acquire your first insight. The 10 insight unlock the 2nd part in which u can buy the bell of help and bell of invasion. I got 10 insight after the 2nd boss... so you can do it quite early.
 
Yharnam might be might favorite game setting of all time. So fucking dense and immersive. Sound design is nuts. Central Yharnam alone might have the best 3D level design I've seen since Sanctuary Fortress in Metroid Prime 2.
 
so im at the third boss,wanted to go upgrade my stuff and the doll is gone,tried everything but shes not coming back

edit:nvm found out she moves
 
What's the best way to farm insight/the knowledge items? I haven't even dealt with the first two bosses yet, but I'm afraid of trying to summon anyone since apparently it uses the insight when you use the bell, not when someone enters your world. Which is frankly utter bullshit.

Also I want to get 10 insight.
 
Played a bit of this yesterday. Liking it so far but I've got a question, how do you use blood vials? I regularly get them from dead bodies but after a ton of deaths they don't show up in my inventory and taking what I do get (pressing up on d-pad) usually decreases my health. What am I doing wrong?
 
Lock on his ass and start shooting. He will fall to his death. Reset with lamb to pick up his item.

You must shoot him off first, actually. Got to be quick, bum rush him when you get off the ladder, and he’ll go down like Gaston from Beauty and the Beast.

I don't have any bullets actually, I might try torching him to death. Spamming the torch attack seems to stagger regular enemies frequently.
 
So what's the recommended starting weapon set up? Or conversely, anything I should avoid?

Everything is seeing use here. I think all four starting weapons and 2 guns are viable.

Are you sure she just didn't move? I've seen her outside the house up by the cauldron.

Triangle.
 
Oh and is everyone's copy bugged in that you can't see ghost deaths? I click on the grave markers/blood and the grave rises but nothing happens and I'm assuming I'm supposed to do a ghost reinactment of a player's death like DS, right? Occasionally I see while live ghost players run by, but the death replays don't seem to be working.

Yep, death replays are broken for me, too. Not sure what's up, but I'm having the exact same issue.

You use blood vials with triangle.

Push "Triangle" on the dpad.. it's the hotkey for the vials.

They appear in the UI in the upper right. Use triangle to use one.

There are 2-3 knowledge items at the church area, 1 at the sew. Defeated the 2 boss should give u around 6-7. Also, I heard we can buy insight later on???
 
I miss all of the special enemies like Havel, and the knights from Dark Souls. Anything like that in here? Haven't encountered any so far outside of
the hog? I guess
