Yesssssssssssssssss, rhylith you're a saint, excellent strategy!
Did it with 0 blood vials left and 3 bullets in the barrel. Got a visceral right at the end to finish him off, whew! What a jerk, glad he's dead.
Poor Eileen though. She didn't look like she was doing so hot. After giving me the crowfeather badge, she just kinda lay there panting, and now there's just a bloodstain where she used to be.
...which of course means that she went to go retire to a farm up north! Excellent, I'm glad my good friend Eileen will be able to take it easy and that she's perfectly, perfectly safe and alive.
Yes.
And now I have the crowfeather cape, which is swank
overall i thought it was fantastic. it grabbed me quicker than demon's souls and dark souls, but i may not have given those as much of a chance as i should have, so i might go back to them. that said, the gameplay of this one was more up my alley with the quicker combat and the emphasis on dodging as opposed to slow, methodical blocking and etc.
like all these games though i think the thing i love the most is just the aesthetic and the sound design. it's probably the best of anything i've ever played, or even seen.
regarding late game stuff:
is it just me or are all the bosses after rom fairly easy? i took out celestial guardian, micolithe, amygdala, mergo's wet nurse, and moon presence in one shot. i had to make a second attempt on ebritas and gherman just because they surprised me with a random high damaging attack.
edit: correction- micolithe took me two shots because i accidentally rolled into a pit my first attempt. that does not count!!
amusingly enough the boss i had the hardest time against was probably cleric beast just because i had to get used to how the bosses worked. blood starved and logarias were probably the toughest after that.
so i dunno if i was just overeleved at the end or what. i think i was 90 something. fully upgraded ludwig's blade. i only went to grind echos once out of boredom and all i did was buy some armor, so it's not like i got stuck and felt i had to grind a bunch of levels to continue ever. i was pretty good about not dying twice and permanently losing echos, though. i think that only happened to me 3 times or so. so maybe i'm just disciplined in my echo management.
the hardest fights are definitely against other hunters, like the 3 you fight at once. those bloodsucker enemies at the beginning of cainhurst are also a major pain.
i guess i still have chalice dungeons to go through, since i only did two. they're a little dull, though, since they mostly all look the same.
NG+ is harder, i imagine, simply since you can't really level up your weapon anymore and the levels you do get eventually have diminishing returns.
also i pretty much had no idea what happened at the end. i kinda suck at following the plots where all the info is very scarce and hidden in item descriptions and stuff.
Oh man, the game is back to legitimately unnerving me again
Unlocked the upper cathedral ward, and the background music (which has been mostly absent throughout the game) is setting right on edge. That and the echoing in that building where all the werewolves are hiding out is super atmospheric.
Yargle Blargle the Unseen Village also had some creepy music going on, but my annoyance with the constantly respawning enemies kind of drowned out any fear I might have been feeling. Got to what I'm pretty sure is the boss room and peaced out with a bold hunter's mark, as I was carrying a hefty number of echoes. I did appreciate all the blood chunks though!

Playing this game after a decently long Dark Souls 2 run made me realize that it controls a lot better. If the movement was just slightly less flit-y it would be perfect. Also, having your run take up vastly less stamina is such a good quality of life change over 2.
I think the Brain of Mensis might be the most fucked up thing I have ever seen.
It is in the running with every other goddamn thing in that level.
Good Christ those dogbird things. I suspect Google's ANN was playing Bloodborne before generating all those Deep Dreams images.
And a special bonus Good Christ to running into the post-plummet Brain in that pitch black pit of what-the-I-don't-even.
I submitted an entry to Lego Ideas, and if 10,000 people support me, it'll be turned into an actual Lego set!If you'd like to see and support my submission, follow this link.
it actually took 3 tries, not two. whoops. however, i didn't even realize while playing, but i somehow did it that attempt without using a single vial. i am bloodborne masterrrr.

Well Brad Shoemaker's Platinum run on this has inspired me to at least try to finish it (though going for the platinum is tempting).
As of last night I think I only have Mergo's Wet Nurse left - aside from the optional Gehrman stuff.
Fighting Micolash was hilarious. I managed to cheese his second phase by continuously R2 thrusting him through the gate to the room he was in. I literally didn't step foot into the room. A fitting end to a lame-o boss.

the only trophy that's keeping me from Platinum is the second ending one
I already got the first ending, and the third "secret" ending
but I just
I can't bring myself to make a character that'll get stuck with that second ending
was it ever figured out why the beasthood stat was such a big important secret that they delayed the strategy guide so there wouldn't be any leaks about it?
i went through the whole game without even trying it. i imagine a lot of people did. felt kinda unnecessary. i wonder if it's better on NG+. i'm kind of afraid to start since the enemies already take a couple hits and my sword is already fully upgraded... i want this game to be hard but not TOO hard!
Time to go chill at my crib and cash in some echwait why the fuck is my goddamn house engulfed in flames.

I had the exact same reaction. I was all, "Well, time to go spend some sweet blood echoe.....WHAT THEE EFF!?"
And the dolls just standing there like, "Wut?".
Also I am now rocking some sweet Crowfeather gear and looking rad. It wasn't as good against arcane, but I still managed to roundly thump that fucker
Logarius
after getting my ass handed to me a dozen times.
Some might think it was the fifteen levels I gained in the interim.
But I know it was because I was looking so, so rad.

This will be here until I receive an apology or Weedlordvegeta get any consequences for being a bully
It is in the running with every other goddamn thing in that level.

there's no real big boss equivalent, you kinda just beat it or you don't
the closes thing would be doing the company of champions in dark souls 2 but i already did that on my first playthrough

The bosses are your mom?
That explains why they went down so quickly.
Then, there is the defiled chalice
