But I know I'm not getting it.

Impulse bought this game for $23 at the PSN sale without doing much of any research. I watched the videos and it looked amazing, read the description and I thought this was an action game like DMC or something along those lines.

Well...there's no damn tutorial and whatever this fuckin big dog is 10 minutes into the game keeps killed me in 2 hits. I've tried about 15 times now to kill this thing and get no farther than I did before. What did I just buy? Clearly this isn't for me.

Shane86 · Feb 28, 2016

Just run past it

Wario64 · Feb 28, 2016

get gud, etc. Did you not know the game is like the Souls games? Or who made it?

Santiako · Feb 28, 2016

Did you grab and equip a weapon?

MyNameIsRye · Feb 28, 2016

Troll OP.

delta_reg · Feb 28, 2016

You watched the videos and thought it was an action game like DMC? Uhh, what videos did you watch?

You bought Bloodborne.

I believe you're supposed to die there, so you can get to the dream world and get a weapon

plasmawave · Feb 28, 2016

You've been on GAF and didn't know a thing about BB?

myco666 · Feb 28, 2016

Did you pick up any weapons from the Hunters Dream when you died?

RyanPierre · Feb 28, 2016

OP got robbed.

Or, run past it.

Like everyone says.

Don't treat it like a linear set of roadblocks.

Shao Kahn Brewing a Stew · Feb 28, 2016

EDIT: WRONG AREA. You're meant to die there the first time. Pick up weapons on the stairs when you respawn/wake up.

Rellik · Feb 28, 2016

You've never heard of or seen the Souls series? Or did you just think this was that team going in a different direction?

DNAbro · Feb 28, 2016

Why did you buy something if you had no idea what it was?

You thought wrong. More investigation needed.

No and No.

wat?

tenderbrew · Feb 28, 2016

Wait you mean the part that you can't beat and are supposed to die at?

TheBowen · Feb 28, 2016

Is this an attempt at the god of war 3 ending thread ?

Can't believe someone would buy Bloodborne without a basic understanding of what souls is. But look up guides if your stuck

Rhaknar · Feb 28, 2016

yup its laughable how ~~Capcom~~From Software doesnt include tutorials teaching you every ~~combo~~skill in the game and how and when to use them. ~~Capcom~~From Software should be ashamed

Coloso90909 · Feb 28, 2016

Hahahaha, really? Are not you joking?

Necromanti · Feb 28, 2016

bill0527 said:

wat?

So you played the game for 5 minutes and decided you've had enough of it? Fair enough.

Shao Kahn Brewing a Stew · Feb 28, 2016

bill0527 said:

Do you have weapons or are you using your fists?

Please don't give up just yet. We are here to help. I forsee you defeating the first boss in 5 hours.

gugeifer · Feb 28, 2016

When gaf person doesn't know what Bloodborne is and wants it to be robbed.

fritzo · Feb 28, 2016

close this thread or something. i dont play souls game or have played bloodbourne. but i read GAF. listen to GAF before purchasing.

Angel_DvA · Feb 28, 2016

I think the OP is just joking guys...

Aztechnology · Feb 28, 2016

Rofl. I would normally never do this. But since you declined to do even basic research about the game.

Probably a Troll OP

Camjo-Z · Feb 28, 2016

Are you talking about the dog you're supposed to die at in the tutorial area, after which you get a weapon that can easily kill it in a few hits? This is the part you're stuck at? Please say no.

Nokterian · Feb 28, 2016

Wait..OP thought it would be like a DMC game what?

desmax · Feb 28, 2016

bill0527 said:

You're not fighting with your bare hard, are you?

Check your inventory if there's any weapon

breakfuss · Feb 28, 2016

Yeah calling bullshit on this thread. This is clearly an attempt to rile up the Souls zealots...which normally I wouldn't mind, but at least be clever about it.

BB isn't for everyone but there's no way you didn't know how it was. Oh, and you're supposed to die at the beginning if I recall correctly.

DrROBschiz · Feb 28, 2016

Op isnt coming back is he

Shit I was in the dream world after I died the first time. I didn't know there were any weapons there. After I got there I think all I did was run back in the house..to my impending death. Again and again.

Santiako · Feb 28, 2016

bill0527 said:

wat?

When you died you went to the hunter's dream, right next to the creepy doll there's a weapon choice and a gun choice.

Also, read the messages on the floor, those are your tutorials.

Newtype-001 · Feb 28, 2016

VVs Beginners Guide should help

It also helps going into these games not to expect getting spoon fed.

2 important pieces of advice i can give is experiment and explore.

SpideySenses · Feb 28, 2016

SoulsBourne games are terrible digital impulse buys, for every person they click with and become their favourites games ever they'll be another one who completely wasted their money. Sucks for OP, all I can say is live and learn.

spliced · Feb 28, 2016

It's hard at the start, the whole game won't feel like this.

Check the place you respawn when you die, there's a shining lamp you can use to get there

wild wild rice · Feb 28, 2016

You'd probably like Demon's Souls more, try that one. It's much more DMCish.

Didn't you read any of the notes on the ground? They're like a tutorial.

fernoca · Feb 28, 2016

Yep. The first steps on every refund:
1. Post thread on NeoGAF
2. Wait for replies
3. Respond to some
4. OPTIONAL: Contact/Call support

Alcoholikaust · Feb 28, 2016

This is in fact the Dark Souls of Devil May Cry games.

sorry OP

The Xtortionist · Feb 28, 2016

OP you have to have a little faith in the game designers. If something seems stupidly difficult, you're probably approaching it incorrectly. Hint: grab weapons from the Hunter's Dream.
