Bloodborne finally beaten. Cheesed
using Rifle Spear R2 and
I just beat regularly using Blades of Mercy +10.
took around 4 tries and beat
on my first try so I was happy about that.
Great game, glad I finished it. Now on to actually finish DaS and DaSII.

Every time I watch gameplay I want to play it, and it looks fun but if it's so hard I'm just flopping all the time I won't like it, I don't enjoy games that are so hard they stop being a relaxing pastime.

The good thing about BB is that the harder bosses (and areas) are optional. If you just want to finish the game I'd say is on par with DkS.
Getting the best ending involves facing more areas and bosses, some of which are considerably harder.
Getting the plat involves facing the hardest content in any souls games.
But seriously, if you feel overwhelmed at worst you just can use co-op and at absolutly worst you can overlevel and finish the game.

Decided to fire up the game again after the latest patch looking to co-op some chalice dungeons. Set a password, rang the bell and had a friend try to connect with the short ritual root chalice. Sat there for over 10 minutes, removed the password and tried again for a few more and was unable to summon them into the game. Looks like I'm done with this again until they fix summoning in these dungeons.

Ok you forgot to return to the password door located in the graveyard where two church giants are sleeping, In the Cathedral ward go left, pass the church ring guy then straight to the stairs and go upside, go left, then left again to enter a new zone
Mmmmm its more like the game use a poorly implemented netcode, try to set the password to Worldwide and use a simplie password, dont know if is case sensitive.

I think I will end up getting it at some point, maybe if there's a good deal or something. TLOU will be my first game to run through when my PS4 arrives, but I think BB will definitely be in my library at some point.
I'm reading up on the Lore and are the chalice dungeons actually supposed to be part of the plot? Are they the "old labyrinth"?
If so I find it confusing that the Chalice dungeons are canon since story bosses show up in them, right?
Also it is pretty annoying the game forces new game+
Kind of interested in doing the chalice dungeons but it's too late now that I've beat the game.

You can chalice it up whenever you want, progress there is completely independent of your main story progress, NG, NG+, etc.

They also made it so that you can get Blood Chunks in Chalice Dungeons so going into NG+ no longer completely halts your weapon upgrading process.

Well, according to some theories,
the Old Ones don't actually have physical bodies (or something). Killing them in the story world is kinda like killing a doppelganger. Their true form isn't physical.
The most annoying thing about that fight is
the chase. If you die you have to go through it again, which was annoying. And it sucks we can't do much damage to him during the chase.
I feel it's so easy to forget about that place, especially considering there's so much you an do in that area.
I don't know,
doesn't patches shows concern and shock when you kill Amy? Maybe they can resurrect themselves but those are probably their real bodies. Of course I haven't beaten the true final boss so maybe there's some lore missing from me.

Patches was shocked because he worshiped Amygdala as a god. A lot of figures in the game worship the Great Ones without really knowing much about them.

For some reason, Eileen is my favorite character in the game.
She's fucking awesome.
I thought he was more in the know about them considering his form and his knowledge.
I let her die with no regrets during the first fight.

Did you share/set the dungeon to open?

Nice work! Just about to face Cursed 3 boss
Amygdala
So did you then do Lower Loran, then the final dungeon? And skipped the Great Iz one (I don't think that is required but might be wrong).

Is Amgydala really this hard or am I severely under levelled? Rocking cane+7 and am lvl 66. It's like a war of attrition but I'm not hitting hard enough to win 
Summoned two co-ops who are worse than me.......I can stay alive and generally swat around her tail and legs, and dodge most of her attacks but law of averages says she will get some in and I've just depleted all health vials. Pissed off.
The only other place I have to pursue is Yarghul chapel onwards but both seem kinda spiked in difficulty here in terms of mob health. Should I be completing Yarghul before Amygdala?

I did beat her before Yarghul, but it was very tough for me and it took me forever. I did it in co-op in the end too. I guess you can get there super early in the game, so you could be well under level. Tricky boss

Your level is more than fine. Try to hit her head using whip form's dash attack so she drops down and you can perform a visceral attack. Another thing to make use of is just not aiming so you can stay close and bait her into performing the multi--swipe attack which is easy to run from and leaves her exposed.
Platinum gett-o! Thanks for bearing with me, GAF. My 20th Plat. I can think of no other game more deserving of this milestone.
I don't remember and I'm not pulling your leg. You'll have to excuse me as the Chalice experience just blended together and I started zoning out. I even muted the sound and turned up GameGrumps playthrough of Sonic '06.
I can tell you I skipped one or two Layer 3s but I'm not sure which...my aim was only to get the materials necessary for Ihyll.
Maaaaaaybe?

Don't worry, there's a much much harder version of her.
I'm sure. I finished the game today! Didn't play the harder chalice dungeons at all, I'll leave that to NG+ in the unforeseen future. Game is GOTY for sure.

Congrats, it's an awesome game to Platinum for sure, can't wait to get mine. I think I just need to do one of the two (either Loran Lower or Great Iz) to get 2 more Red Jellies. I think that's all I need to open the final dungeon.
Was the final dungeon tough? Should be hitting it tonight, maaaybe!
Nightmare Frontier Amygdala never killed me in two fights but I took about an hour killing the Chalice version tonight.
Wasn't too bad though, half the deaths were one-shots where it jumped up and landed on me in the final phase.
I liked learning how to fight it properly instead of kinda just swinging wildly in the Frontier.

Want me to help with Amygdala? I am available if you want.

Where is the best place to farm Insight? Running low :/
Laughing Banana
Weeping Pickle
The only,and I do mean only, enemy in the entire game known to me to drop Madman Knowledge is the spiderlings of Rom.
Of course that would be extremely not ideal for farming... the only way that I know of is to coop or pvp lots of times.

Probably the easiest guaranteed way is to plow through a Depth 1 chalice a few times.

Cheers guys.
Maybe joining people's co-op calls is the most efficient way at this point.

It's not.
It's the most FUN way, but not the most efficient. The reason I say this is because people tend to die in coop and you won't get your insight point if the boss doesn't die.
Run through Pthumeru 1 one or two times and that should pick you back up.

Started playing this yesterday, bit of a difficult slow start but I love the new combat, feels so much more action packed than dark souls, trying to dodge at the right time and time your attacks correctly is a joy. Favourite weapon so far is the axe which I started with with the blunderbuss. Trying to tackle the bosses on your own is quite the challenge, thankfully I have been able to recruit some good hunters to help out.
Just a question, if you're asking for help, get 2 helpers but they drop out even though it says on the item its still searching it doesn't seem to start searching again. Is that the same for everyone?

The very first chalice dungeon, and its first layer? Do you just get them as you play through it then? I can't remember now!

Just the whole Pthumeru Depth 1, all three bosses in it. You get Pthumeru Depth 1 by beating B
