There was, like, one pre-release trailer that said something about you waking up at the start of the game with amnesia. People take that, and the fact that the summons being ON the clinic bed you start the game on and having your name on it, to mean you had the summons with you when you came to Yarnham.

That is the logical explanation. It's also not outside the realm of possibility that the summons just... finds you. It's addressed to you, and so through unknown means, it got to where it needed to go for you to find it. The whole castle segment is Bloodborne's obligatory "weird mystical stuff that doesn't need to make sense" section. Everything in Cainhurst is just a little bit more magical/out of touch than Bloodborne usually gets imo.

Honestly the thing about the Summons that gets me is that you cannot pick it up early, it's literally not possible. Which suggests to me that it wasn't in the room in the first place, and honestly there's a pretty easy way for it to have gotten to the clinic. Cainhurst is full of actual flying gargoyles after all. There is another, although very unlikely, way the Bloody Crow of Cainhurst might have done it. There's a few other reasons I don't like the suggestion it came with us when we arrived, firstly we know why the player character was in Yharnam, supposedly, they had an incurable illness and wanted some of the miracle healing blood. But it's not impossible, and it is an alternate reason for coming to Yharnam in all fairness, it just doesn't explain why we get a blood transfusion upon arriving instead of actually heading towards Cainhurst Castle, which the letter clearly explains the path to.

The Wheel is one of my favorite weapons in the game. It's so much fun to use. Always be Strength/Arcane.

Good Lord you murdered Logarius. Parrying is the key to doing really well against him, but that's usually easier said than done. You're just insanely good at it. You did so much damage that he skipped the power-up move and just went straight to the second phase - which means that he doesn't have an aura around him which he'll usually get from the charge-up, and that aura will prevent bullets from hitting him (it happened in your first try, I think). That made the fight even more of a slaughter!

There's only one non-key item that actually does nothing and is just there as a trophy for you to carry around, and it's the reward for completing the chalice dungeons. Funnily enough, Dark Souls 3 recently reintroduced that with the covenant in the final DLC except the item gives you a passive, permanent boost to your stamina regen!

Seeing CJacobs post here reminds me, we had a duel a few days after the Cainhurst session. Simply Simon posted:Good Lord you murdered Logarius. Parrying is the key to doing really well against him, but that's usually easier said than done. You're just insanely good at it. Yeah, I replayed most of the game on the side not too long after this with a Str/Arc build and throughout I kept wishing I had RGretta's stat loadout because parries are my bread and butter and I'm not nearly as good at the game if I'm not tearing out some poor fool's guts every few minutes. It made Logarius a much harder fight! tiistai posted:Dunno if you've been informed or come across it yet, but Queenly Flesh does indeed have a purpose. Yeah, we'll be seeing that in maybe a month or so?

Fun fact: I believe it says somewhere that that hunter lady you murdered is named Yuria.

Ah, I'm glad to see you enjoyed the Bloody Crow just like everyone does the first time they meet him. That one attempt was really close, though.

I was so upset when I recorded the first run on that video, holy poo poo. I think that was the run just before the actual winning one too. It happened again to me last night in Persona 5, where I got a boss to just a tiny sliver of health and then it one-shot me from full HP and killed that run.

Arcane builds make fighting Amy nigh effortless. The whip is a good choice though; really good for reaching those weak points.

The whip is loving perfect for Amy, I have no idea what your co-commentors were on about! Though it IS also really great to shoot her in the face with a cannon. I did that my first kill and it loving owned so much.

I've seen those two mooks kill the Tentacle Faced Axe Man before. If they attack before it does, and stagger themselves to keep up the stunlock, they can do it pretty easily.

Casnorf's audio for this session is a little funky because his Audacity picked up a webcam microphone or something instead of his Yeti and we didn't realize it until the next session.

Just pretend I'm old and out of touch and not at all the sort of guy who'd forget to hit the record button when recording for an LP it took weeks to get everyone together for.

So is there a lore reason for the werewolves' eyes glowing blue, or is it just to indicate that they're tougher?

As you may recall Darkbeast Paarl is a giant skeleton werewolf made of blue bolts of lightning, and in general the more advanced forms of the beast plague tend to have electricity powers.
