Over-simplified,less-memorable Souls experience.

User Rating: 7 | Bloodborne PS4

Great game,but clearly the shallowest Souls experience. People complained about short areas and linear world design of DS2 yet BB is full of it and its even more blatant. The game is filled with unmemorable zones you breeze through in 15mins with no real platforming or head scratching except the waves of enemies they send at you. Every zones consists of 2 paths, one that leads to the typical locked elevator that will eventually serve as a shortcut ( for whatever the reasons you would need to go back through previous zones since the secrets arent much secrets in this game and it honestly lacked depths in exploration and npc interaction compared to the previous games.) and the clear path they want you to follow. Pvp is a complete mess compared to DS2.

Game honestly lacks in build variety I feel like my 2h Chikage build is the most complex build they added to the game yet its pretty simple. Theres so much wrong gameplay wise with the game its like all the passion went into the art style and settings. Clearly my less memorable souls game and the one that will get the less replayability from me. I plat the game in like a month? LOL try doing such for Demons or Dark souls 1. Ill go back for the future expansion but not with the same interest as I did for DS2 or Artorias in DS1.

So, yeah, bring on DS3 as Im far more interested in what else this franchise does. Oh and from the look of bloodborne,miyazaki is overrated. Everyone I know enjoyed DS2 far more
