Worst decision I made all year was trading this in thinking I was done with it after NG+. I'll give it a bit and pick it up again.

Side quest question. Where is the
third brain juice? I've tried retreading everywhere but I can't find it. Do you have to kill the npc at the boss gate?

Kill the NPC that wants it. She reacts the same as the other two.
Kill Adelia. She will revive.
Eh? I though that area was a call out to Shadows over Innsmouth instead. It's been a while since I've read that one, but I don't think it really has much to do with what's going on here.
I'd say about 8 hours for your average player of souls games if you want to do everything.

On another note, does anyone know if Blood Dregs and Vermins stay in the inventory when you go to the next NG+ cycle?

I had this issue too. Try deleting your save data(back it up first) and see if the game Will start. Go through the process of creating a new character and then exit out once you gain control of the character. Now put your old save back on the ps4 and see if it loads up.
I was thinking maybe the game data isn't actually finished installing until you're actually playing. And this causes a conflict with the patch installed. I reinstalled the game after I got an error message last week. If this doesn't work try doing it again without the patch installed. Delete the game data and reinstall without being online.

I forgot what it was like to feel genuine horror in a Souls game prior to playing this DLC. I recently streamrolled Bloodborne on NG+, so I'm fairly overlevelled in the main game, but holy shit, Ludwig was terrifying. I think I can get him, but his second form ended me pretty quickly.
How much more is there after Ludwig? Is it as creative as the first chunk?

Finally finished with everything. I think The Old Hunters is the best chunk of video game content I've ever played, no hyperbole. The areas, the atmosphere, the bosses, the enemies, the new weapons and armor... everything is awesome. I loved every second of it.

The first boss is destroying my bumhole.
Even the helpful summon person couldn't get me through. WHere should I ring my bell? Had no luck right outside the entrance...

Doesn't matter, works either way. By the time the DLC ends it has end game difficulty so plan around that.

Why don't you spoiler that?
Because it isn't really anything of note- it's been discussed plenty pre launch as far as things in the game go. It also has nothing to do with the plot.

So what is in (final location spoiler)
the bottom of the well in fishing hamlet? I had my sedatives at the ready after hearing the singing, but the shark monster fucks me up before I can explore
You might want to spoiler that. Here is a video of my strategy on him.
Only two of those fish monsters that give you new weapon if you kill them both. You can't get to other places from there and the singing comes from other place.

Maria's trick weapon drops from the 2nd shark monster that jumps down

For that attack:
it's entirely predictable and easily dodgable once you learn the timing. For me it was one of those attacks I liked him to use because I could 100% avoid it and then do a ton of damage. What you do is run in a straight line once he goes up, then listen for the 'ticks' sound of his crawing. After about 1 full second of that sound just dodge and you will avoid his drop. It's the same amount of ticks sound every time so just listen for it and you'll get it.

goddamnit i suck, have to relearn the whole shebang again. my NG+ is at the blood starved beast, which is doable but I have to farm a whole lot of antidotes first cuz i aint got none, and I also started a new character but have seriously died four times already with the blood starved beast.
Some attacks are cheap yo.
Confidence is good.
Overconfident and you know how it goes.

To avoid that attack you have to stand behind him, since it basically hits everything in front of him.
Just asking again - do I need the yharnam stone at any point in this dlc? Haven't read through every page yet since I've just woken up.

I just beat him on my third attempt. During the second phase I stayed by its left side. All of the attacks were pretty heavily telegraphed and left it wide open to attack.

I'm on attempt 5 now beat the others on 2nd go this is the hardest one for me lol.
Yeah, staying back for the 2nd phase is the worst you can do IMO. You have to deal with his proyectiles. Hugging him means the projectiles won't touch out, and it's just about avoiding swings (a lot of them will miss if you keep going to his back).
I found Orphan to be much much harder than Laurence. Orphan doesn't give a shit if you want to take a breather but with Laurence you have usually lot of time to breathe.
