| I Beat Bloodborne!
I have now beaten Bloodborne and I loved it. I wouldn't say that this game is as good as Dark Souls, but it's design and atmosphere are absolutely stunning. The combat is fast and addicting, and the bosses are great, so I'm gonna rank them from hardest to easiest, including the "Mini-Bosses"
Let me know how this one compares to anyone elses | 1 | | Gay Witch Abortion Maverick
Witch of Hemwick
The easiest boss in the game really, and not very fun or well designed. The battle consists of you running in a circle till you find her! Fun. Hemwick as an area, is fantastic though- OH also fuck those dogs | 2 | | Blue Oyster Cult Fire of Unknown Origin
Celestial Emissary
Get your Luddy and just Charge attack over and over there ya go done.
the Upper Cathedral Ward was one of the most rage inducing areas, had to cheese the wolves and then the Brainsuckers in this area.... jesus christ, they are the most annoying fucking thing in the game | 3 | | Black Sabbath Paranoid
Micolash, Host of the Nightmare
My least favorite boss in the entire game, its very very poorly executed. You just run around for five minutes then wail on him. That's it, Fuck this guy | 4 | | The Ghost of a Thousand This Is Where The Fight Begins
Cleric Beast
A good first boss battle, lets you get used to the combat system and he's pretty easy. | 5 | | Alexisonfire Dog's Blood
Blood-Starved Beast
Only healed once, I just wailed on him. Apparently people have a lot of trouble with him that I did not encounter | 6 | | Converge Petitioning the Empty Sky
Darkbeast Paarl
If you have a long weapon, like Ludwig's sword, this enemy is kinda sad. Second try I rolled once then stagger locked his entire health away, without him getting a hit on me. The design on him is fantastic | 7 | | Sunning Losing Youth
Moon Presence
The secret ending boss and he's kind of a pushover. He almost killed me a few times, but he's a very straightforward boss, who's only difficult because he blocks your healing | 8 | | Nurse With Wound Shipwreck Radio Volume Two
Mergos Wet Nurse
The final required boss, her design and music are incredible, this fight oozes with atmosphere, the only time this gets panicking though is when she summons duplicates of herself and you have to just rooooolll | 9 | | Lich King Necromantic Maelstrom
Martyr Logarius
Forsaken Castle Cainhurst is probably the coolest area in the entire game and this bossfight is awesome, its pretty much a PvP, it's stressful, but not very hard. | 10 | | Against Me! As the Eternal Cowboy
Djura
Not an actual boss, but might as well be, he was intense, like most Hunter Vs Hunter fights, and my first one.
Shouldn't have killed him, but I did, cause I did not know | 11 | | Every Time I Die From Parts Unknown
Amygdala
The Nightmare Frontier in general is pretty awful, its just one of the worst areas in the game, its boring and its not very fun, which is a shame because the lore behind it is soooo goood, and the Lecture Hall is an amazing area of the game. The boss doesn't shape up to be much fun either, this is probably an area I'd skip in the future | 12 | | Boris Cosmos
Ebietas, Daughter of the Cosmos
God Damn she's freaky. One of my favorite bosses and her lore is awesome. This fight is all about stamina and vial management, you need to almost always be at full health, cause her charge will fuck you up immediately, luckily she's not too hard with some circle strafes | 13 | | Slint Spiderland
Rom, The Vacuous Spider
Great Idea, Great Lore, Great Design, Great Atmosphere, and Great Character really, but horribly executed. Her Arcane magic is ridiculous, minions annoying, and the fight just all around tedious. It can become simple with the Tonitrus and clearing out his spiders in the first phase and just wail on him | 14 | | In Flames Colony
The One Reborn
I had a bad time with this guy, not fully understanding the fight really or that you have to be on him all the time. He was a decent fight otherwise, gross, but awesome design. This area was one of my least favorite though, took a while before I just decided to run through most of it. Sad, really, cause this is one of the coolest feeling and looking area in the game | 15 | | Godflesh Streetcleaner
Gehrman, The First Hunter
From Software realllllly know how to make a final boss great, the area and music is absolutely stunning. The Fight itself is exhilarating, and will test every thing you know about the game. It's very similar to Gwyn in that it's a reluctant fight, Gehrman only fights back to prevent you from suffering his same fate, It's beautiful, melancholic, and my favorite Souls fight ever. | 16 | | Mastodon Blood Mountain
Vicar Amelia
I fucking love Amelia, she's a great fight, it's sad and beautiful. Oh and she's the coolest looking boss in the entire game. That being said, this fight is a bitch, she is the second time I got majorly hung up on a boss, I died to her countless times, until i finally somehow beat her. | 17 | | Sigh Hangman's Hymn
Shadow of Yharman
God damn this fight man. I only beat them on my 3rd try cause I accidentally summoned a cooperator, otherwise I think I would have had numerous failed attempts under my belt. This fight just gets crazier and crazier as the time goes on and fucking snakes man FUCKING SNAKES. The second half of the forest is also awful, i hate it. fuck snakes. | 18 | | The Dillinger Escape Plan One of Us Is the Killer
Bloody Crow of Cainhurst
This dude is intense. His pistol is a 2HKO and he is a master at parrying, Luckily he has the Chikage, which is his downfall. Just dodge till he tricks it and drains his health, when he tricks it Charge up your attack and repeat. Near the end of the fight he stops using it, making him an extreme pain in the ass, I'll admit I stood in the doorway and threw stuff at him till he died, no shame | 19 | | Mastodon The Hunter
Father Gascoigne
The first boss I encountered in this game, I was still base level when i fought him and i got him all the way down to his beast stage, and he fucked me up immediately. I was blown away, it was one of the most enthralling, exhilarating boss battles I've ever had, I was excited to get at it again.... and again.. and again. and again many many times more, till I no longer loved this fight and it became the bane of my existence. Every time I'd get him down to his beast stage he wrecks my shit, and it didn't help that I was piss poor at parrying. This is the fight that set me off from this game for about three months, till I decided I needed to beat it... and he got me over and over again, then i just said FUCK IT and summoned a friend for some jolly good cooperation. I still feel like I never beat him. | |

01.14.16 | Game's pretty good guys.
What did you guys think of it? | BandNewbac
01.14.16 | Well done noob
Jk wish I could play it but im a PC fag. Love the shit out of dark souls though | Spacesh1p
01.14.16 | Excellent game, beaten it twice now. Father was sooo much easier the second time. | Spacesh1p
01.14.16 | My biggest complaint would be that some of the bosses that should have been more strategic could just be beaten by standing under them and basically never stop swinging. One Reborn and Amygdala were the biggest offenders. | Minushuman24
01.14.16 | yeah, I agree with you on that one, they're not great fights.
this game's bosses are hit or miss for me
Damn, how do you play Dark Souls on the computer, that's brutal | Spacesh1p
01.14.16 | From what I've read playing mouse and keys with DS is basically impossible. I'm actually just starting DS2 on PS4, never played them before BB since I didn't have a new console until like May of last year. | zakalwe
01.14.16 | Dark Souls is the best game ever.
Bloodborne is amazing.
DS2 is fucking rubbish. | Minushuman24
01.14.16 | Zakalwe, I share the same feelings | Minushuman24
01.14.16 | yeah, that's what I heard too, but there's a patch for it. I might buy DS2 just to retry it out, and Ill for sure track down Demon souls, Hopefully before DS3.
| Spacesh1p
01.14.16 | Ouch. Not good.
Either of you guys care to explain why DS1 is so much better than 2? I have the expanded version if that counts. | Minushuman24
01.14.16 | Expanded is better.
Really it boils down to Miyazaki, the director of DS, he wasn't on the DS2 Project
DS2 is (excuse this) soulless, boss fights are mostly garbage, and it's more of the unfair type of hard | Spacesh1p
01.14.16 | I see, that's kinda disappointing. Hopefully it's still worth a play through? | Minushuman24
01.14.16 | Sure, go for it. In reality every souls game is worth a playthrough, in my opinion
| BandNewbac
01.14.16 | i use a game cube controller to play dark souls | Gmork89
01.14.16 | Ludwig was a huge piece of shit too don't forget him. | BandNewbac
01.14.16 | to be fair the troubles with bosses is seemingly always going to be a thing in the souls games. they seem to never release a game in the series where there isnt at least one boss you can just use dirty tactics to beat. | zakalwe
01.14.16 | DS2 is just an area to area grind with not one eye opening moment. The design, bosses, lore, atmosphere, replay value, characters, creatures, satisfaction, sense of achievement is all non existent in comparison to the first one. | Minushuman24
01.14.16 | I have yet to play old hunters unfortunately
His sword is great tho | Spacesh1p
01.14.16 | Noted Zak. Gotta pick up DS1 after then and feel the difference. | Minushuman24
01.14.16 | What Zakalwe said ^
yeah, there's always a cheese method, I never had to resort to that luckily | BandNewbac
01.14.16 | absolutely agree DS2 was an abomination and taking into consideration they basically straight up lied to us just rubs salt into the wound. i'll stick to dark and demon souls for now. | BandNewbac
01.14.16 | The whole ethos of the souls games is that they are hard but always fair.
DS2 is bascially the antithesis of this concept and it just draaaags | Spacesh1p
01.14.16 | Well I feel pretty sad about spending the $25 or what ever it was for a used copy. Take solace that only Gamestop benefited from that transaction, I suppose. | Minushuman24
01.14.16 | http://giant.gfycat.com/GrossGaseousAntarcticgiantpetrel.gif like this! | Minushuman24
01.14.16 | Still give it a shot, ill probably end up buying the remaster too, just to beat it | Spacesh1p
01.14.16 | The hitbox to end all hitboxes | Minushuman24
01.14.16 | yuppp, It's stuff like that | Spacesh1p
01.14.16 | I'll give it a shot this weekend and report back.
Thank god for MLK day | brainmelter
01.14.16 | Dark Souls is the best game ever.
Bloodborne is amazing.
DS2 is fucking rubbish.[2] | Gmork89
01.14.16 | I've had Scholar of the First sin since it released and I haven't been able to finish it, its just a slog. | elcrawfodor
01.15.16 | Agreed Micolash wasn't an interesting fight, but at least its sound design was superb. | PayneTiger777
01.15.16 | I still need to check out the DLC to Bloodborne. I got too hung up on Witcher 3. My weapon of choice in this was the Hunters Axe (such a badass weapon). I need to get back to this game even though I platinumed it. | Minushuman24
01.15.16 | Look foreward to hear your thoughts, space
I can agree that Micolash has atleast sound going for him, yes
I really want to get on the Old Hunters DLC, looks great | Veldin
01.15.16 | Congrats! Nice writing, fun read. I was stuck on Gerhman for a few months until I finally learned his EVERY move and beat him without blood vials. Exhilarating, the whole game is. So freaking pumped for Souls 3! | Minushuman24
01.15.16 | Damn, no vials? impressive,
Im very very excited for souls 3, I hope that it will be as brilliant as DS | samwise2000
01.31.21 | Really getting the urge to play this again. I feel like I've lost my skill since its been 4-5 years. Still need to play the old hunters too! |
