Holy shit. THAT explains why there was a burlap sack guy waiting outside the Cathedral Ward lamp! I probably had 15 or 16 Insight then after helping a few people with co-op. Huh. Wow, this game.

This is the 3rd time that I've felt infantile in this thread, and twice it has involved pressing left on the d pad. wow. Thanks.
Whats wrong with them? Are they weak?
Incredibly weak. Piss poor range, weak damage, long cast times. The one that requires 40 arcane uses 10 bullets per use and does dick all and is super easy to interrupt.
Arcane items, are by far, the most horribly unbalanced part of the game and not in a powerful way. Do not bother with them.

And they made him a Lord of Cinder. Not for virtue, but for might. Such is a lord, I suppose. But here I ask. Do we have a sodding chance?
Could someone please tell me about the Queenly Flesh?
What's going on??????????????
I killed Annalise, Queen of the Vilebloods... she just lies there and I can still talk to her (she's quiet)... still no fucking drop.
What's going on??????????????
The abonded doll? If so it is just lying there.

You have to kill a certain boss later in the story. You'll end up there eventually as the story progresses.

Don't feel bad. I spent 20 minutes at the beginning trying to figure out how to equip items
Nice work! And yeah, I typed bolt and was thinking fire, but everything else still applied

It's not, I've personally tested it. At 26 insight, those pale fedora giants had obviously different lanterns and used different attacks. Used all my insight, and they stopped using those attacks / lanterns looked completely different.
You are able to resurrect her using the queenly flesh don't know if you have encountered the thing that does it though yet
Face the boss and then go back to the dream, then.
You can give that item to the Altar of Despair after you beat Ebrietas, Daughter of the Cosmos. She'll be revived if you do.
Ok I will try that.

Quoting myself here. Anyone know a video guide or such for that location?
I am horrible at platforming and would not mind seeing how it's done.
Tried looking for one but did not find any.
I am so glad you will not be drinking pee.

Don't worry those guys are great for farming Blood Shards and Twin Blood Shards and you'll net ~1300 echoes from them. I remember they used to be a pain in the ass for me and a challenge but now I just one shot them with my kirkhammer.
No, all you need is 1 insight.
Make sure you USE the item you got so there is a 1 in the upper corner.

No, I meant
I WANT the Queenly Flesh. I thought I would get it by killing her??

Just light a torch and look down. At the point where it looks like there's nothing around, there's a platform you can barely make out. You can make the fall with full HP without dying.

You need to fight the first boss for it to come alive. Just go up to the bridge and give it a whack.

Thought I'd test the PS4's video uploading feature for fun, and didn't know that it automatically saved quite a bit of footage.

while being fed up and wanting to go to bed. But it paid off. (Just look at that generous animation loop at the end.)

Actually,
the burlap sack guy is there because you beat the blood-starved beast. If the burlap sack guy kills you, he takes you to a hidden area.
Oh, I thought you could get it that way. I got it from
the church executioner NPC guy, that you give the unopened summons to, killing her and leaving her a smashed up mess on her throne.
Some endgame notes on insight:
It is the replacement to both Character/World Tendency, and Dark Souls 2 Hard Covenant. A bunch of things change, including enemy HP and item prices in town. It is more cut-off based, so earlier enemies need less insight to "trigger" to harder settings.
Maybe it's just this one area I was in, but it feels like it was worse than in the other Souls game. Basically, I was trying to drop down in the wooden scaffolds area of the Healing Church Workshop and I slipped and fell what only seemed like a few feet to my death.
Or maybe I'm just used to the cat ring in DSII, I dunno haha.

Oh I see.
I have tried using those narrow beams to get lower and to perhaps see more.
Don't forget to take breaks GAF! Sitting will kill you.

This game is awesome. I love the sense of dread, and being scared as I try to explore. The game certainly doesn't hold your hand and I think it's great. Not sure how far into the game I'm in but just downed Amelia. And I still don't have a clue what I'm supposed to do in the world other than bring light back or something. Or survive the hunt. I wonder if the story becomes more clear as I progress.

Really tempted by this, never played any of the souls games, but hearing this is a tad more easier for newcomers appeals to me. I love exploring and watching the giantbomb quick look it looks of tons of paths to take .
Hopefully the loading screen patch comes soon as that may push me over the edge
That it is easier for new comers I think its debatable. Have been hearing people saying they're finding this hard as fuck, and can't beat the 1st boss. I think the more defensive gameplay of D. Souls makes it easier to learn and keep going... But, overall I'm indeed finding Bloodborne easier.

Yea that happened to me one of the times I encountered him, got careless.
I spend excess insight on bolt or fire paper.
Speaking of which, is it worth leveling arcane to 15 to use the
empty phantasm shell

is it me or is there even less direction than the usual souls game? And I dont mean that in a good way. I notice a lot more "where do I go" posts, ive done some myself.
Hell, I just killed
for example, the door leads back to
and...now what? There was no switch or anything, no indication that anything changed in the world.
I know Souls games are usually obtuse, and thats fine, but this one seems more so in a bad way. In my opinion of course.

I hate how that saves...It worked. Thank you very much!

Nope could you just tell me a lantern I should spawn to and I can find the rest from there. It's not very clear where I should go
I would typically just try to find the next area alone because I'm not a fan of getting help, but I can't play that long today and I don't really want to waste time running around frustrated.

I like it. If I get stuck I just run around trying to see what I missed. And there always seems to be something I missed or some door open that leads somewhere new.
You don't need to face the boss, you just need a single point of insight ( which facing the boss would give you).
Another way that doesn't involve losing your echoes is to consume a Madman's Knowledge item and then travel to the a Hunter's Dream.

Oh man....im really getting wrecked at the R
. I have died like 20 times and im nowhere near getting the hang of that boss fight.
Sadly co op in that area seems dead like a rock. Sadly though. I really hit a (motivational) wall.

I don't see how is it any different?
What guidance is there in Dark Souls? "Ring the bells, find the vessel" and that's it, and Dark Souls 2 doesn't even give you a goal right off the bat. BB on the other hand will give you exact directions from time to time like "Go to X"
