I posted this in the new Bloodborne players thread, but I thought I might get some good answers in here as well.
Okay GAF, I bit the bullet. I have Bloodborne in my possession and am going to pop my Dark/Demon/Bloodborne cherry here soon. I've tried to prepare myself a little by watching Twitch streamers and reading beginners "tips & tricks" as well as new Bloodborne player's survival guides online. So going in fresh, never having played any of these types of games before, any essential hints or helpful things I should know?
I'm reading it looks like the "Lone Survivor" class is the one I should start with because of the high endurance and other stats that are pretty balanced. However, it seems like the beginning weapon choice suggestions for newbies are all over the place! Some suggest the heavy axe (even though it is slow), others suggest the saw cleaver since it is like the good all around weapon, while I've still seen others say use the cane with the Lone Survivor class (but it doesn't really pack a punch). I see a lot of the twitch streamers I've watched go with the Heavy Axe, probably like 60% of them that I've seen. With the others using some broadsword I'm assuming you can access later on, and a very small portion using the cane. So I'm stuck at what I should choose, lol. GAF any recommendations here?
