Great OT btw.

If I enter the DLC in NG+ will the new content be leveled like NG+? I only have one character who is a pretty high level, I'm not very interested in making a new one.

Yes of course it would be NG+ difficulty.

 

[protonion]

Has the european version the dlc on disc and is it the last version?

 

[Fancy Clown]

Are we sure its not just scaling to level? I'm sure NG+ does its normal difficulty bump also.

I guess I don't know for sure but I would be surprised if this were the case. NG+ doesn't scale to your level afaik, it just bumps up the difficulty a set amount, which would apply to the DLC as well in NG+.

Umbasa!

Got a test tomorrow, but fuck it! The hunt calls.

Question for peeps in this thread:

So I have two characters.

One of them is NG+ and around level 90 with a fully leveled up weapon. I just beat vicar amelia with it.

The second one is at the very beginning of the game with a level 2 weapon and level 11, at the first boss.

I assume it's pretty much not even worth trying with my second character, but will I be ok / at a recommended level for my NG+ character or should I grind more / grind my second character?

 

[Vault Dweller 111]

Yes of course it would be NG+ difficulty.

Cool. Thanks!

Im worried it might be too hard. Lol

If I buy The Old Hunters and start up Bloodborne, will I even be able to see what is original content and what it The Old Hunters content? Is the DLC added seamlessly to the game's world and design?

 

[VinFTW]

Oh man, can't wait for this.

On mobile so the OT is struggling for me:

Is there a physical release for this DLC?

 

[dock]

I enjoyed Bloodborne quite a bit, but I stopped playing in the area full of invisible bullshit.

Is there anything in The Old Hunters for players like me, that have played lots of the game but can't progress past some of the later points?

The DLC areas are not physically connected to the base game

WHOOOOA, the OT isn't late ;D.

I see you.

Only in Japan on December 3rd.
NA so far is digital only.
EU will get GOTY edition on the 27th, but as far as we know the DLC isnt on the disc, its a code within the package.

double post, whoops

What area is that?

 

[toastyToast]

How far into the DLC are you? And in terms of content is it comparable to say, Dark Souls 1's AoTA expansion?

Played maybe a couple hours so far. Can't really make that call yet but from what I understand there are 3 unique areas to the DLC and I stopped still at the first.

 

[Jimmyfenix]

What area is that?

maybe frenzy?

 

[super-famicom]

I am so fucking excited for this but cannot play right away, due to my schedule being very busy. I'll be able to play in about 2 weeks.

Enjoy the DLC, everyone! |o_

The League isn't required for NPC summons though? I found an Old Hunter summon in the Defiled chalice dungeon last night but haven't encountered the League chap yet.

 

[Finale Fireworker]

Is this out today or tomorrow? I thought it was today. But now I'm seeing tomorrow.

I'm in America and bought it as DLC.

You don't happen to refer to the thing that picks you up next to a giant door?

or that. while getting frenzied they are spear looking things that looks like stabbing the player.

Unlocks in 12 hrs, 35 mins from now.

Ah yes. Most likely. I just rushed through that section this morning so I would be ready for the expansion. Took me an hour even grabbing the Blood Rock.

Fuck them Winter Lanterns though.

There are no invisible enemies in Bloodborne. What are you talking about? Are you talking about the frenzy in Mensis?

Unlocks in 12 hrs, 35 mins from now.

I hate my life and wish I was never born.

I dont think think there are invisible enemies. Unless you mean the cainhurst ghosts but they are only invisible till you get near them..... Or maybe the witches but they are really easy and also appear when near them...

But you can gain access to the DLC pretty early. However I'm not sure its recommended you do it that early.

Edit: if you mean frenzy you just hide behind rocks / use frenzy resist / sedatives.

RIght you dont have to be IN the League to summon them. The 1.07 patch just adds the function.

Just replayed up until the Chapel on NG+. Can't wait, although feeling very OP at Level 118, Lol.

I hope they unlock this at 0.01 in germany...

PSN unlocks has been spot on. At 0:00 it will be ready to play

You access to the DLC same way you access to some areas in the main game. It seems to be added so that if you are playing it the first time you probably won't even know it is the DLC.

Oh boy 5 hours to go.

 

[dock]

edit: my mistake, it wasn't because of invisible enemies. I was thinking of something else.

Nevertheless, Yahar'gul, Unseen Village.

Thanks. Good to know, but now that i remember that my hunter is just at the very beginning of NG+, i'm not in a rush anymore -_-

There are no invisible enemies.

but yes, I stopped playing in Yahar'gul, Unseen Village.

 

[Kenzodielocke]

So, the first boss is doing something if you have the right thing equipped. Pretty cool.

 

[viHuGi]

They already took my money but still no DLC?

WTF?

 

[super-famicom]

Maybe he means the hags that sneak up on you in the prison? There's one room where

one darts across a doorway, so you slowly enter the room with the camera facing the direction she ran to, only to be fucking tanked by a second one behind you.

Edit- never mind, OP was mistaken

Ah. This is the zone that teaches you sometimes running is better than fighting.

You can complete it in a few mins once you know the route lol.

So which is it?
I would think that it is added the way myco666 describes it.

That's exactly what I did. Hated that area lol.

Weakling.

They're both right. There is something almost everyone is running into the first time they play it.
But the DLC area itself is disconnected from the rest of the map, like the Nightmare Frontier.

You have to equip

You warp into different zone but there are other similiar transitions in the main game.
