I'm almost regretting doing a blind play play through, I think I missed dark beast Paarl too yep. cainhurst is always accessible. paarl too, for that matter. and you did the right thing w/ a blind playthrough. i wish i'd known less my first time through.

Pookum posted:I beat the one reborn!. Couldn't figure out how to visceral him tho, He would put his head(rear end?) Down near the ground and not attack for a few sec but I guess I wasn't standing in the first right place. It's the skeleton rider on top. Also it's pretty effective in NG to target the skeleton and toss oil and molotovs

What areaa is the entrance to cainhurst in? you need an item from a secret area you may have encountered in the forbidden forest (near the village gate) and then you go back to an optional side area where you may have seen cainhurst in the distance. spoiler for more details there's a secret way back into the clinic you start in from the forbidden forest and you find an item called the cainhurst summons there. you take that to the obelisk in hemwick charnel lane.

bloodtinge builds are really cool and have a lot of good weapon choices. chikage, reiterpallasch and simons bow blade, and the blood letter for str.....that ones rly strong. and for bullets u can have (in descending order of per-trigger press strength) cannon, repeating pistol, piercing rifle, evelyn....Gatling gun is really fun to use to mow down normal mobs. basically a huge chunk of the games gear is only used in btinge and it all owns

I just unlocked the "above ground" tombstone but the guys there keep kicking my rear end. I think there's still a place in the forest i haven't gone yet.

I get super paranoid in these games and always double back my first time through to make sure I'm not missing poo poo. I get lost too and realize I just spent 3 mins walking back the way I just came. >.>

Pookum posted:poo poo I missed logarius. Can I still go there after beating ROM and the one reborn? I'm almost regretting doing a blind play play through, I think I missed dark beast Paarl too The main thing you miss after Rom is pretty much every NPC dies. Logarius can be pretty hard so it makes sense not doing him as soon as possible Here's my Pro Logarius Tip: Learn to parry and also don't use any damage type besides physical. I was stuck on him for a while because I was fighting him with a 2 handed weapon like an idiot, parry breaks the whole fight. Make sure to backstab when he charges up to enter his second form or he'll become immune to parries Cainhurst is so loving cool

Btw I guess it counts as a spoiler but if you just beat The One Reborn you're approaching the end of the game. Here's a bunch of poo poo you probably or definitely missed Cainhurst The back of the clinic, which you need to get to Cainhurst Upper Cathedral Ward (Has a secret area inside itself too) Nightmare Frontier Abandoned Workshop, small area no boss but some hidden stuff Dark Beast Paarl, but he doesn't unlock an area he actually unlocks a shortcut. You could've beat him early if you came to Yhargul early before Rom by getting kidnapped Plus probably most of the NPC questlines and covenant stuff. There is a ridiculous amount of hidden poo poo, like to a degree most games don't do anymore. It owns

A40s are amazing headphones imo.

NG+ starts off kinda assuming you know what you're doing

My favorite weapon transformation to spam is whirligig cuz it's like kachunk and he takes it apart then bzz sticks it back on Tonitrus doesn't transform but it's really satisfying to refresh the buff over and over while you're running around and just listen to the lightning popping and then fade out I have to turn the volume down when I'm playing cuz it annoys my wife so much

I really ought to stop following this thread as I've only been able to play the game when I visit my friend... who lives three hours away. Every day I get closer and closer to splurging on a ps4 + bloodborne... it'll go down in price soon, r-right guys?

actually when you consider the fact that bloodborne just got a massive expansion, making 2015s GOTY even more amazing, it stands to reason that sony would start increasing the price of the ps4 now since the experience of playing bloodborne has only gotten more epic since the ps4s initial release
