Thanks, will buy Elden ring when it goes on sale

One more thing! If you're playing on PS5, unless they've fixed it, the PS4 version runs better on PS5 than the PS5 version does, and looks almost the same (or at least, it looks good enough!). Most people suggest playing it that way vs the actual PS5 version.

I really hated Dark souls 1, should I try Elden ring or bloodborne?
Depends on what you hated. At a basic level, Bloodborne is a lot like Dark Souls, except replace the high fantasy setting with H.P. Lovecraft horror setting. It is similarly difficult with similar level progression, but the combat is more frenetic. If you hated the high difficulty and the premise of danger around every corner, then pass -- I've always felt like Bloodborne and Sekiro are both more difficult than any Souls game.

Elden Ring, to me, might as well be called Dark Souls 4, so you can probably write that one off if you hated Dark Souls 1.

BTW community is pushing a big "Return to Yharnam" event on the 24th.

Log in, start a fresh toon, put your summon stuff up for every boss, and constantly leave "A hunter is never alone" notes everywhere, and commend every note you see!

This game is the second most difficult fromSoft game, imo. #1 is Sekiro. That said, the DLC fights in this game are absolutely insane and rank with some of the hardest fights in the series. Bloodborne is a masterpiece in every way, but it's punishing and will piss you off many times. I want to play it again, but waiting for a remaster, remake, or sequel.

Get good friend. Took me 3hr to get past the first boss then it was all good.

You won't succeed if all you do is mash buttons. You gotta play the game.

Sekiro was the one that got too hard for me. If you can't parry you can't play Sekiro.

Naaa I'll take a Bloodbourne 2 they can keep it mostly the same and just give me a new story. Maybe make us like a Frankenstein dude that gains different body parts with enhancements. Until then I guess it's back to FF7 Rebirth Smilie hoping Queens blood gets an online mode somehow or a PC solo title.

Amazing game. Be warned it is very hard to start playing because of the high difficulty.

Quote from 2Slick2Quit :
Elden Ring is the more polished and next gen experience. Start there.

I'd say bloodborne and dark souls 3 are FromSoft's most polished games. They play exactly as they should and all levels and bosses are well thought out with very little "jank" or "filler" etc. Bloodborne is just more difficult than ER due to forcing you to play melee only with no shield and not having the accessibility options of ER.

I agree with everyone's opinion here to start with Elden Ring. But Bloodborne is a very streamlined and polished game. The high difficulty and lack of checkpoints was intentional.

I agree. Amazing game. The price also makes this a no brainer, but this game is not for quitters. I think this is one of the hardest games I've played in a long time, but it is worth it.

This was in my library from a past PS plus monthly game I think, just tried it for the first time, frame rate not great. What's the best character build to start with?

Hmmm. Aren't Dark Souls Games parrying system similar to Demon Souls. Slow and unrelenting? You really have make that perfect hit or you are dead. I guess Demon Souls you have to defend against attacks but I never caught on well enough. I found Bloodbourne to be much easier than Demon Souls since it is fast moving and easier to dodge attacks. Way more fun parrying system. I never could get past one boss in Demon Souls while in Bloodbourne I was able to get past a bunch before I quit due to time constraints. I'm not a From Software guy but Bloodbourne I at least felt like I had a chance to not die every time I came up against a boss fight. I just loved how much faster paced it was over Demon's Souls. I bought the PS5 version of Demon's Souls thinkining I could do better. Nah I still can't get past how slow and unforgiving it's parrying system is.

I'm guessing Elden Ring is closer to Demon and Dark Souls games in fighting mechanics than Bloodbourne? I know Elden Ring is Open World but I'm not sure that would make much of a difference if I hate those fighting mechanics.

Yea, parrying was very high risk in the Souls games, and I always struggled with the timing. I had an easier time with it in Bloodborne, and I think it helped a lot that it could be done at a slight range, so if you whiffed it, you weren't certain to take big damage. Elden Ring's combat is much closer aligned with the Souls games, yea. I'm not sure I parried a single time in Elden Ring!
