Bloodborne DLC: how to access bloodborne the old hunters expansion.
- Thread starter Hanmik
- Start date
I've not read this topic to avoid spoilers, but this is a relevant place to ask.
I'm from the UK but bought Bloodborne from the US store. Is there a decent site to get a $20 PSN card for less than $20 (some sites have UK cards for a few £ cheaper), or should I just go with Amazon?

You could try the Buy/Sell/Trade thread in the Gaming Community subforum, I got my codes there.

How are you playing it? Is the DLC on disc like many of us hoped?
You would have to beat her again.

You have to beat amelia, almost for sure.

Thanks, and that is too bad I guess. Hated how gimped the threaded cane was in NG+ ... Hopefully some upgrades in the DLC will take care of that, but getting access to the DLC again will not be fun ...

Just fired up the game for the first time in 7 months to see where my character was at for the DLC. Thankfully everything is opened up so I'm ready to go. Lvl 130 NG++, so I'm expecting The Old Hunters to show me no mercy. Hope some of the new costumes are neat, wasn't really feeling the majority in the vanilla game.

I think I'm about level 170 in NG++, should be interesting.

Is there anything new to do atm besides join the new covenant and summon new NPCs?
I just booted up and talked to the new guy, just wondering if there's anything else to do for now.

If you go back to Forbidden Forest
a new enemy NPC appears, he drops a new BT spell
Also after helping a few dudes with the new convenant rune equiped and squashing a few bugs or whatever are those
Valtr dissapears giving you his head bucket, for the rest of his armor you'll have to wait to the DLC

That is sexy. I had to cover most of the screen with my hand so I only saw the name and image lol.
Not looking at any story stuff.

That's what I'm doing. I don't really think it's necessary to start over. The new games pluses aren't that disproportional in difficulty as long as you've kept leveling up. At least how it seems to me.

I'm right at the final boss now in my NG+, Iv'e platinumed it. So instead of me starting over, Can i go straight too the DLC from the hunters dream?
Sorry if its already been covered.

You can go to the DLC any time post Vicar on every cycle. So don't beat the final boss and you're good to tackle NG+ DLC.

A little off topic, but its related to me playing the new doc...
What's the consensus on starting a new character spec? I'm currently starting NG+ with my STR build, but am a little bored or using LHB and the Stake Driver, so I want to bump up my SKL rating.
Should I simply start a new game, or do people usually change it up in NG+?
Or maybe I should wait and see the new STR weapons...

I hope it is on disc, since I've sold my vanilla copy already.
On disc. 108 mb update
Can you tell me if italian is available as language?

Awesome.
Sorry I don't have the game. My source is that GameFaqs thread with all the leaks. I'm guessing Middle East started selling it early

So is it just me, or does the smartest play for enjoying the new weapons in the bloodborne dlc seem to be
dexterity and arcane?

I'll be out of town from Wednesday to Sunday. Perfect timing to do a new playthrough with the DLC.

that is probably bullshit.

I know you probably can't tell, but is it harder than the main game ?

Can't say much because of NDA, but I started the DLC on NG+ at lvl 137 and it's hard. The enemies, at least until the first boss, can be brutal.
Depends. The area itself? No.
One of the bosses though... yeah, harder than anything in BB, to me. I'm playing on NG++++ though.

I have 2 characters ready, one is lvl 144 NG++, the other is fresh lvl 19 character. Both at the cathedral ward before fighting Amelia.

From what we've seen so far, this expansion is reminding me of the DLC in Soul Sacrifice. The story seems to be fleshing out the factions and giving you a better impression of the world in which you're existing in.
Can't wait until Tuesday.

I worry for my level 115 NG+ character... I do co-op though with my brother so we should be alright. LHB and Blades of Mercy compliment each other very well.

Wish I hasn't fucked myself by starting NG+. Ah well.
All these reports of hard stuff have me pumped. Perhaps i'll finally obtain the real Souls experience with this DLC. Praise the NG+!

And goodbye Burial Blade! Hello new main weapon! Did a bit of farming yesterday. Got a good load of Bloodstone Chunks and my Blood Rock for whichever weapon I chose to use.
The new enemy NPC doesn't show up until you've co-oped at least one boss as part of The League and crushed a vermin.

I'm excited too. I guess I'm just bummed about chugging through it all again, with less time due to having a newborn. It'll last me a while, at least.
