Just beat BloodBorne along with the DLC during my very first SoulsBorne game. Granted, i never dared to touch this game due to the infamous difficulty that most Gaffers associate the game with. My area expertise are action games and Fighting games, ironically those fast reflexes helped me out.

A few gaffers such as Rajang, Jayeh and JimmyFenix pushed me to try it out. I remember seeing the game on sale for 20 bucks and i was like well fuck it let me try it out. At first i had no idea what i was doing, lamps, blood echoes, how to level up, nothing i was a complete noob, but with the help of some old hunters i found a way.

Completing this game makes me feel empty inside because i will miss this beauty world filled with demons and nothing but despair.. but somehow i feel accomplished as a gamer weird as it sounds...needless to say ill miss this unique experience.

Anything is possible.

dark souls 3

The same as life before Bloodborne.

Wagram · Feb 10, 2016

The question should be what's after Dark Souls 3...cause we're fucked! At least for awhile.

I dunno. XCOM 2 is pretty damned great. You should try that.

TP · Feb 10, 2016

How about more video games

Hydrus · Feb 10, 2016

Loved Bloodborne, but now I'm interested in playing the other souls games. How does demons souls hold up today? Was thinking of playing this then dark souls.

Pretty damned good. The healing items are in the same vein of Bloodborne so that part will be familiar to you. The character builds and items are a lot deeper in Demon's imo.

it should be fine but there are a couple of things you'll have to adjust to such as having a carry limit for items, different roll speeds depending on the equipment you have (this is present in all other souls games but bloodborne), and no jumping. I beat demon's after I played the other games so it was bit jarring at first but I eventually got over it.

Muppet of a Man · Feb 10, 2016

I honestly believe it is the best game ever made at this point.

NoctisVsStar · Feb 10, 2016

I'll perhaps try DS3 seems slow to me.

HStallion · Feb 10, 2016

Cher can answer your question OP.

Can we build a wall and make Yharnam pay for it

Sub_Level · Feb 10, 2016

Noctis, play Doom and Doom 2.

On Ultra Violence difficulty. No saving during levels.

Bloodborne 2.

Definitely holds up nicely. I'll say it lacks a lot of the conveniences of Bloodborne though. Things like item and equip weight are things to get used to, as well as the slower, tactical combat. But once you get it, it's really quite awesome. It presents challenges you won't find in the other games. I personally feel it could have used a better climax, but still a really good game.

Foffy · Feb 10, 2016

All things shall pass.

If you liked it, try From's other dark fantasy games. They may not be as fast as Bloodborne, but much of them are focused on monsters and almost fear of what's ahead of you.

RexNovis · Feb 10, 2016

For realz though. You should try Demon's Souls OP. Its the most similar to Bloodborne out of the current souls games. I think youd dig it. Provided you with a Dex + Light Armor build and its a fantastic game.

We'll get dlc 9 months after it's out, we're fucked after that for at least 2 years if they don't announce a new Bloodborne soon.

After bloodborne it's destiny!

Aguila · Feb 10, 2016

This is literally me after I finished Bloodborne.

I moved on to Uncharted 2/3 which I had not completed, and they were just so boring and unchallenging compared to Bloodborne.

I'm thinking about playing the Souls games, but they don't look as compelling in terms of fast gameplay and lore. I need Bloodborne 2.

Only if Miyazaki is involved.

You should play Demon's and Dark 1. The lore in Dark 1 is pretty amazing, and may be even richer than BB, although maybe a liiittle sparser, which seems like an odd paradox, but hey what can ya do.

I personally like the obtuseness and snappy controls of Demon's the best.

Pif · Feb 10, 2016

After my 1st playthrough I tried to get into Dark Souls 2. It's just... Bad. In comparison with Bb.

I think DS3 should be good for us first introduced into BB

Rozart · Feb 10, 2016

You have to find your worth in the waking world, good hunter.

Dark Souls 3 will save us.

I think that's what I'm going to do, get Demon's. I just wish they had remastered the first two games before the DS2 remaster.

themidnightsun156 · Feb 10, 2016

you can do what im doing op and play the other souls games, im currently playing demon's souls and am loving it, already bought dark souls too

Goodacre0081 · Feb 10, 2016

Bloodborne --> Dark Souls 3 --> Demon's Souls Remastered

Ceravic · Feb 10, 2016

Easy. NG+. Then NG++. Then NG+++. And so on. And so on. And so on. Yharnam isn't done with you yet, good hunter.

You could also do the chalice dungeons if you haven't done them. There are a few unique boss fights in them that you don't encounter during the main game.

Slammin_Hammon · Feb 10, 2016

Play the souls games until Dark Souls 3 comes out. They may have a slightly slower pace, but it is made up for with how much more variety they have in terms of environments as well as playstyles.

GootecksShimmy · Feb 10, 2016

Get in on the other souls games if you enjoyed BB so much.

Just wait for D3 though. 2 months out isn't bad. Gives you time to replay BB on NG+ and get a different ending? Go for the platinum on BB ?

Not the suggestion I think OP is looking for. OP If you like you games mechanically competent I dont think Witcher 3 would be a good bet. If you feel like playing a story driven game then yeah Witcher 3 will most certainly float your boat.

dmr87 · Feb 10, 2016

Play Dark Souls, then Dark Souls 3.

Slixshot · Feb 10, 2016

Anything made by platinum games is of the same quality (except for Korra), has an incredibly satisfying learning curve for mastery of combat and has a ton of replay value for this reason and because of higher difficulties. Give Transformers Devestation a shot!
