except for keeper of the old lords gently caress that rear end in a top hat the fight would be better if he died in one hit

I really really want demons souls on ps4 with a steady framerate and some of the quality of life touches from the later souls games brought back to it. I think the area designs and bosses are second to none

i don't really get bloodborne

so right after the start of the game, I can go from the central yarnham lantern, kill some dudes, then slowly whittle down a giant crowd around a bonfire (and it sounds like there's a boss after that) or go face some miniboss around the corner. Anyway, at some point in culling the giant herd or trying to fight the miniboss I gently caress up and die, and so have to kill the same dudes again, in the same way, in the exact same place

since I'm not as quick as I used to be it would take me a while to get good enough to beat either section, so in the meantime I'm just going along the same path, killing the same dudes in the same spots, over and over again. it's already getting boring and i get the impression that this core activity loop is basically the game and I don't really get what's appealing about it

Hell, PS3 emulation is actually in a semi decent state so maybe soon you can play it on PC: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I8okZelsZng

I think they each get easier but that's probably only because I've played 400 hours of souls games at this point.
