Incredible.

So much of the lore is right in front of the player, but it really takes some critical thinking to put it together.

Love these posts. Nice work.

Thank you, through my playthroughs over the years I've always tried to make sense of everything that's shown and what you can find in the game. Demon's Souls will be hard to beat lore wise for me, but Bloodborne looks like a worthy contender with it's fresh world setting, story and atmosphere.


Miyazaki: GIT GUD
 
That left guy is unbearable. Nice impressions though, I'm hyped.

At least he is hyped. The right one sounds like a douche "So does it look like there is any story in the game?", "Do you restore the world? Grass comes back to life and light...". Please... /rolleyes

Hype Train conductor. Works harder than it steams.
I think I'm the only one who thinks it doesn't look anything like Demon Souls, it looks better and I don't mean graphics, cuz thats obvious lol
 

Yoshichan

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?
Will the games quality increase the price of the game? If yes, will it cost 500 or 600 dollars?

From the looks of it there won't be too much Sun to praise in Bloodborne, we need to go back to Umbasa for all of our praising needs.

Q: Does the game take place only in Yharnam?
A: Basically it's just in Yharnam but the city is massive and the game will take place during various times of day and weather.

Sunny Yharnam believe.
 
Will the framerate that is reported to be low by journalists who saw the game be a priority?

No, it's not :/

WTF of course they're going to iron that shit out. Games tend to have shoddy frame rates before they're finalized, you know? Because they're NOT FINISHED

I'm with Miyazaki right now. Any questions? :p

-Will the game be more approachable for gamers not used to Souls games but without losing it's charming difficulty?

-Is Sony/ICE Team helping with the engine?

-Is the game more story heavy, or still told mostly through lore?

-What he thinks is that differentiate BloodBorne from the Souls series, aestethics aside?

-Is he pleased with the crazy positive reaction from both critics and crowds?

I want it brought up, because Dark Souls had some heavy framedrops even upon release. Don't you dare iron that over - I'm a fucking huge Fromsoft fan and even I want to know if smooth 30 is a priority.

Wait....There was doubt?
It says Sony Computer Entertainment & PlayStation Japanstudios at the beginning of the trailer, geez.

That's what makes the denial all the more delusional. Especially since Sony registered the copyright, lol

How do you think he would answer that question? Seriously... you think he's gonna say "no"?

We'll have to join the werewolf covenant and praise the Moon instead.
Praise the blood
Touché. All of those work for me.

I'm with Miyazaki right now. Any questions? :p
- Is there a magic system?
- Are there vampires? Will drinking blood and other vampiric gameplay mechanics be part of the game?
- Are there stats, fine-tuned character builds, classes?
- Will there be coop and PvP, bloodstains and/or player messages?
- Will there be NG+?
- Will all enemies be dynamic/patrolling, or just some of them?

Gods I have so many but I'll start with those. Umbasa.
 
Can you loot dead bodies?

This is mentioned in the Kotaku write up. Loot is in.

What are you talking about? Every dev makes it a priority to have a steady framerate. Whether that pans out or not isnt indicative of whether or not they prioritized it?

The issue is that the people who presented the game clearly said 'they hadn't heard anything about a low framerate', yet the journalists who saw it in the show clearly saw it getting low. I'm not actually that worried and I think it'll come out just fine, I just want assurance because I'm insecure after Blighttown.

I'll ask some of these.



No.

Thank the lord. I love having customized MC's. FromSoft does a fantastic job with this especially. I have created the "40 year old emo" in the souls games. A long, depressed middle aged man who absolutely has the teenage angst and dreams of a 16 year old boy listening to My Chemical Romance...

yeah...customized MC's! :D (Sorry, I really had to put that out there. I love that they are doing customization for MC's.)

Will character classes be in the game? Is magic in the game? Thank you.

Just quoting this as they seem important to Bloodborne/Souls fans. When the game was originally leaked, the leaker "NotASonyFanboy" (believe that was his name) said he saw a magic sword, and a pyromancy fireball.
