Most poeple don't believe me when I say this, but a certain kind of refinement, elegance and dignity is very important to me. I usually tell my designers that flat out grotesque or splatter type designs will not get past me. This has everything to do with my personal sensibilities, and it is something that I apply to every design I approve.

You're right man, I don't believe you
 
Cancel my call for help!

I DID IT! I FUCKING DID IT! After two days of trying to kill Eb
rietas
, I FINALLY DID IT. Oh my god, it was awful, but man I was in the zone. I managed to get her to not cast the
lasers
and did it!

Hands are shaking, I threw the controller up in the air and cheered when it died! :D

Lol yup, it was something out of resident evil
 
I dont know if it's me but I find parrying with the gun so inconsistant, I try to shoot at different stage of the attack animation and I have always a different result, sometime it works sometime it doesn't.

I tried to play on my monitor for a quicker input lag, it was a bit better but not that much.

Parrying in Souls was much easier.
It kinda ruins the game for me, I m relying only on dodge for defense now, I cleared the game like this and I feel I missed the gun part of the game :/


Can someone explain me how it works ?
 
One Reborn
is the easiest boss ever, holy shit. I went into the fight with only 5 Blood Vials left just to scout it out before farming for more and managed to beat it. The area leading up to the boss was crazy as well, not sure what the deal was.
 
Is there no boss for (optional location)
Cainhurst?

There's a boss there. It's the hardest boss in the game, the only one I died more than 10 times on while I beat all the others in less than 5.
Up the ladder on floor one, up some stairs and do some falling.

The gun bullet has a travel time. The further you are from the enemy, the earlier you have to do a parry. You will find more consistency in timing parries if you do it at similar distances.
 
Man, either there isn't hardly anyone doing mp in this game or they REALLY need to fix the servers.

It seems to always take me a good 15-20 minutes to find someone for a boss.

WAiting at blood starved beast right now for 20 minutes with 0 luck.
 
You learned something important in the cutscene after the VA fight.

Okay I watched the cutscene again on YouTube and still had no idea so I caved and checked a FAQ, which says that I need to
let myself be killed by one of the shoulder-baggers.
But I've already done that... and now
I can't travel to that bonfire from the hunters dream. Says "not working" or something.

wat
 
Debating continuing chalice dungeons or just finishing the game tomorrow. Kinda ready to move on tbh (I'm not a big ng+ person, in any game), if I do finish it and move to ng+, will that reset my chalice dungeons or make them harder?

That FAQ was wrong.
The cutscene let you know the password for the door in the Cathedral Ward.
 
There is.
Drop off the roof and follow the path.

Just gotta do some parkour off the roof brah

Ah, damn.

I was on the roofs quite a bit but when I fell off at the end of the line I died instantly so I figured there was nothing else. Lots of loot though.

You've killed Rom, haven't you? You'll be able to get to that bonfire again through the area that you're pointed at after Rom.
 
28. I cant make out her moves in all that hair movement! She is also pretty fast.

Generally speaking, you want to bait her to make that jump attack when you are a good distance away from her for quick and easy multiple hits (dodge to the RIGHT, not to the left)... get ready to rush in if she heals herself though. She did it once with me and that move was nasty... thankfully she did it only once and Ludwig's Holy Blade did a wonderful job of chipping that health back down.

Yeah, generally speaking dodge to the right side, IIRC. Bring flamethrower, it'll help. And of course fire paper. Molotovs is ehhhhhhhhhhhhhhh........ it's hard to aim with them sometimes and they prone to miss :/

I'll help you out if I am not at the office right now, haha.

Get Ludwig's Holy Blade man! It'll help tremendously.
 
I'm near the very end of the game. Came back to the dream and
shit's one fire

Should I go now, will the game end right after ? Should I finish quest lines and visit other dungeons before going to meet you know who ?
 
Speaking of Cainhurst did anybody else
not jump out the window to get to the room with the lever but jumped off the mini staircase instead? Sort of like the shortcut you can do in Anor Londo.
 
Lol! I'm here trying not to die from laughing so much. GF came over and decided to try out Bloodborne. She's never played the Souls games before so BB is her first "Souls" game. She's been stuck fighting Father G for the past four hours. She skipped Cleric Beast after dying one too many times to it. She's been cursing at the TV for two hours now. I keep telling her to give up and she keeps telling me to fuck off.

She went with Professional as her Origin and Cane + Pistol as starting gear. I gave her a quick rundown of BB's stat and scaling systems beforehand.

Sounds like....she's turning into a beast.

lol
 
Oh man I found a guy I sent to the ward

went back to the ward after dying to often in the forest and needed a break. Then I notice the old lady is now dead and the dude is outside. So I talk to him and he give me beast pellets. So he must of killed the lady!

So whats is a man to do except exact revenge? So I smack him around with my hammer and suddenly turns into a giant beast and is now kicking my ass lmao

The sheer amount of random shit you can do in this game is flabbergasting sometimes. Been playing hours tonight and haven't done the same thing twice, even in the Forest. It's amazing

I generally have good experience with randoms, but I still strongly believe the bolded. PvE in this game is a joke.
 
I've come to the conclusion that as much as I love BB, I hate NG+.

Fighting
shadows of yarnham.
. First of all, Boss runs are tedious and I'd kill for a checkpoint before the boss. These stopped being of any interest in DkS2, and I'm sick of them now. Every game it's the same - clear the area meticulously of enemies, then reach the boss. If you die, just run past everything as you won't get hit if you sprint. No skill, just busy work.

Only, despite beating most bosses on my first or second go in my initial run, now they take off 50% of my health with each hit. It's not fun. Especially with gank squads like the above. Got a maxed out Ludwig nearly and +50 Str and +42 Skill and I don't do much damage outside of counters.

And I can counter them, easily. It's just hard to focus on dodging their attacks that come half way across the screen when you're focusing on their buddy. Not fun.
 
Just curious, but after
One Reborn
how much of the game is left?

One more main area but there's a lot of side stuff in this game.

I actually had to do them a few times, it was really annoying for similar reasons. Some crazy reach off camera attacks that whack massive HP from you.
 
I just learned you can only get a blood rock from a specific chalice dungeon once. I tried removing the chalice and putting the code in again. I went to the chest it was in, but only got an insight item. Oh well. Hopefully I run into more / find more codes that people have found blood rocks with.
 
We tried this to for about 40 minutes. We were able to get two people into a game (as we normally can) after about a 6-7 minute wait. Waited another half hour and the other person couldn't find us.



We do this too. It works with two people, over stupidly long waiting times, but we can't find the third.

The crappy thing is that all three of us can find people in less than a minute if we just search for strangers. It's just the password part that is broken for us.

After beating the 5th boss, I just tried get summoned to help random people in Forbidden Woods and another area a bit further, and had no sucess at all...

For a game that requires so much connectivity it's really annoying how they have not patched it yet!

Edit: Nvm, I'm dumb. I forgot to take the password off! lol

I actually completely missed
that guy, though I did hear about him from a friend who had all the people he sent to the chapel die and was pissed as hell and couldn't figure out why till that guy was the last one left. Suffice to say I didn't bother looking for that guy.

Oh shit, there's a second blood rock? Awesome!
