Mage and Sorc shouldn't need to dodge, you should be nuking from distance or having pawns protect you. If you get assfucked in melee, you've no one to blame but yourself.

Oh no, one attack of dozens. Which all have more variation to gameplay style than Bloodborne. However will you cope.

>>339935791

The reason the games combat sucks is because it's designed around your level. Either you have a weapon that can damage the enemies or you best enjoy the bullet sponges.

Zero skill, zero depth. Just meme anime tier attacks that literally play themselves.

> Which all have more variation to gameplay style than Bloodborne.

Ludwigs holyblade alone has 30-40 movesets/dynamic combos. That's 1 of 30~ weapons each with similar levels of depth/complexity and that's not to mention the build types you can create (Bloodtinge, arcane, STR, Skill etc).

Dragons Dogma can't compete and it's why the game never caught on. People blame it on its shitty story (that is unironically pretty interesting once Everfall opens up) but Souls games barely have a story.

The reason Dragons Dogma barely caught on is because it's a clunky piece of shit with more style over actual substance.

I love Dogma and have over 500 hours in it but Bloodborne's combat is way better, it's not even comparable

So you literally don't have an argument. Don't act like you know shit, then.
>Either you have a weapon that can damage the enemies or you best enjoy the bullet sponges.
Actually try using your skills effectively and you won't be having that problem. The enemies aren't damage sponges, you're just not using your skills properly.
>Ludwigs holyblade alone has 30-40 movesets/dynamic combos
That is a woeful exageration.
And even then, all of them are largely recycled from Souls. Not to mention most of them are also used by the Kirkhammer.
And even if they weren't, the moves have little variety in utility. Some stagger better, some are faster, but at the end of the day you're still dodging and having slap fights. At least DD lets you use shields and magic that isn't a token piece of shit.

>Chalice dungeons
Consider me triggered. That shit is so fucking boring to run through due to repetitive room layouts and the resulting level design being a mess. And several of the bosses thrown in there is just insulting, the fucking boar and a brainsucker and 3 regular-ass fat guys at the same time does not make for enjoyable encounters with a healthpool of a boss, not for difficulties sake, but the tedium.

Then for some reason the idea of halving the hp pool sounded like a good idea to further fuck with the idea of farming for blood gems, along with the other rites. So you have a boss that literally kills me in one hit unless I stack silly amounts of HP. For a second there I almost want to say Artificial Difficulty.

Optional, sure. But don't pretend that shit isn't a blight on the game as a whole, considering unique bosses and shit is locked within that travesty.

MH, DD, M&B, Mordhau, Dark Souls 3.

Bb actually has extremely mediocre combat. Its better than witcher/batman/asscreed crap but not better than what i mentioned.
>>
I've always preferred dark souls and by extensions dark souls 3, it's more weighty and satisfying, whereas in bloodborne, I appreciated the fluid feeling of the movement, but the actual fighting part felt kind of papery, even LHB had this problem for me

I'm not sure if it's a problem with the game or the controller though

I also didn't like the absence of a wide variety of magic in Bloodborne, it kind of felt hard to justify the arcane stat

bb on the other hand never stops being awesome. also goddamn das3's world looks so damn drab compared to bb. bloodborne feels like art, same way das1 did. das3 just feels like a soulless rehash.

>>339939646
Do you have any argument as to why it's bad other than the usual buzzwords? It's always "Clunky", "Slow", or "heavy".

The combat mechanics reward hitting targets at specific points moreso than most games, considering hitting the wrong areas will legitimately be an ineffective strike. Dodging acutely is also very imperative, considering hunting a monster is a very endurance-heavy engagement at times, especially with Elder Dragons and the like. You can't afford to keep losing out on critical increases in your damage output or opportunities to dodge, because it will constantly result in you running out of your pitifully limited pool of consumables.

The variance in weapons and armors are insanely broad. Each weapon type functions entirely differently from the rest, except for maybe LBG/HBG or SNS/DS, although they still have dramatically different goals in combat, and are played just as differently in practice. Playing Lance and jumping into Greatsword doesn't feel like an effort in mastering timing for the same exact attacks. It's an entirely different playstyle.

And the Monsters themselves are so deliciously varied, and have such a range of attacks. It could be multiple forms of firebreathing mid-fight and tail slams and body tackles or simply bights, but there are varied ways that they choose to fight back. Both enraged and not enraged. They also do an excellent job of permitting you to slap the shit out of a monster if your team is composed right and are all on point. Status LBG and three HBG's? You can tear a monster apart if you guys stacked your damage values correctly. GS, DB, LS, and Bow? Again, do your status damage correctly, and most monsters are at your mercy. Coordination is excellently rewarded, and monster variance and their range of potential attacks are also enough to keep you and your entire party on your feet at all times.

MH combat has never been shit and it has only gotten better as time progressed. Where's your argument?

It felt much harder to control than rolling and sometimes it would get you stuck on tiny rocks on the ground and fuck you over.

>>
>>339939959
I bought it for BB anon. It was worth it just for that, because the PS4 itself is a piece of shit. Sonyggers foam at the mouth at the idea of calling it a turd, but the console is what it is.

However, it was still worth it for me because I really liked BB. Just check some online videos and be done with it, it's not really much different from the other games. It's faster, has less build options, very little magic, and a fantastic aesthetic and atmosphere.

Yhorm, and you are any where from 40-80% depending on what you have done in terms of the game progression.

>>339939959
Buy a PS4 for multiple games, if you are interested in multiple games. Do not buy a PS4 for a single game. Do not buy a platform at all for just a single game. If you honestly shell out 400$ for one video game, you're a fucking retard by all metrics.

HOWEVER, if you have a list of PS4 games you really like, Bloodborne will definitely be up there in terms of priority. Just make sure you have yourself a happy list to go into.

Only ever happened to me against Cleric beast (similar thinkgs happened to me in Dark Souls 1).

I do not think it's worth it if you are buying a console for it

If the entire game was like the DLC, i'd recommend it, but the main game has awful pacing, after around about 20-30% of the way through, the strict adherent to it's tonality aesthetic of the game gets very tiresome, and the difficulty decreases enormously.

That's one other thing about Bloodborne, if you've ever watched a video of the first few bosses, you'd probably think they are comparatively difficult to say, the souls games, but that's because for a good portion of the game, they are the hardest bosses you will have encountered, right up until around 2 bosses in the end depending on how well you've adapted to the games systems.

If you're looking for a dark-horror experience in a souls game, I'd recommend it.

But also, if you're looking for a lovecraftian experience, but aren't ready to delve into the games lore, you won't be very impressed, the game does nothing really that interesting with this theme outside of the dlc.

It's a fine area to jump in, although I'd moreso recommend FU or 4U, because FU teaches you the fundamentals a little better than 3U does, and 4U is the latest entry with a far more active online community. 3U is still perfectly fine though. Just be ready for really unpleasant underwater combat.

There are pretty much no other exclusives I care about, I don't care about Uncharted or Final Fantasy or weeb-shit, I would probably like Gravity Rush, that archeo-future Guerrilla game, and Last Guardian, but those are the only exclusives besides BB that I would get.

Adding padding that has nothing to do with the actual argument is moving goalposts. Monster Hunter's combat doesn't become tiring if you actually enjoy it, the same way as Bloodborne's. And no, Bloodborne does not reward hitting specific parts nearly as much as MH, nor does every weapon feel as unique as they do in MH. The combat isn't as intricate. It's just faster.
>>
>>339940909
I'd actually say the combat in bloodborne is disappointingly "light"

the fast combat is fun, but heavier combat always felt more satisfying to use in souls games, and almost certainly in monster hunter

not to detract from bloodborne's combat overall though, it has a ton of great things going for it

You can ignore it, but a lot of the beauty of this franchise is multiplayer, which is shockingly not-garbage. It's proper multi-singleplayer multiplayer, where everybody jumps online with the kit they've been working with over the course of their own game.

However, playing singleplayer is not impossible, and if you get good at the game, it's not a challenge beyond understanding how to react to each monster, though it'll take longer to drop monsters.

I bought a PS4 with Bloodborne, The last of Us and the nathan drake collection

5-10 hours? fuck that is one short game dude. I've only played like 17 total so far, and that's with trying to explore thorougly. i think my missed the smouldering lake optional area (blind playthrough) so that sucks. i've killed pontiff, if that tells you anything about progression.

>What didn't you like?
Idk, it just feels so 'been there, done that'. the novelty of these games has completely worn off for me. i dont get sucked into the world either; that immersion that das1 and bb had is gone. something about the world just doesn't have that artistic bliss that das1 had that totally sucked me in. that one snowy place was fucking beautiful however, took my breath away the first time i saw it.

also i dont like how unconnected it is overall. das1 had shortcuts linking all sorts of areas together, so did bb. das3 feels very linear.

also, while the combat feels pretty good, it seems to me that some weapons aren't as viable as they used to be. like i wanted to use a claymore but found it to be way too slow and inefficient for the multiple and far more aggressive enemies you face in das3. ended up just going back to the broadsword since its R1 spam is so fast and I can dodge in and out with no problems. overall i'm glad they made backstabs work in this one without making the PVE broken (like how it was in DaS1), and it certainly feels the best its been if you go for a dex build or a weapon with a fast R1, but it seems like even medium slow weapons like the claymore just aren't as viable as they used to be which is a shame.

also the music sucks. apart from the title screen and the shrine its been really forgettable stuff for me so far. bosses are also easy af. almost all i've faced i first tried. only exceptions are crystal sage (was that its name?), who killed me twice... first time because I walked in there with a sliver of health and got ohk'd, the second time because shit happens. every other boss was first try, except pontiff, whom i only died once to.

I guess you have skipped some areas then, never mind.

And I understand your complaints, I feel similarly but still had a lot of fun. The weapon balance is worse in this game, the game is way more linear, and the PvP is incredibly shit. The last part I already expected as a staple of the franchise though.

I guess I liked the game because its execution is mostly fine, but like you said it doesn't bring anything good to the table. Feels to me that the franchise would be healthier if it were DeS, DaS1, and BB.
>>
>>339941548
>so did bb

BB had forbidden woods-central yharnam

And Yahar'gul to old yharnam

the rest was just connected to cathedral ward

It's not even comparable to dark souls 1

blight-town-valley of the drakes-new londo-firelink shrine

burg-darkroot-drakes-firelink shrine

lower burg-firelink shrine

burg-parish-firelink shrine

burg-darkroot-parish-firelink shrine

I've just described several ways a player might discover the route back to firelink shrine

In bloodborne, you have to go to forbidden woods to discover the route back, it's boring by comparison.

I'll give you that BB has interlinking areas from cathedral ward, but this is still nothing like dark souls 1

Can you tell me what I've missed? According to trophies I've beaten the following:
>Yhorm
>Pontiff
>High Lord Wolnir
>Abyss Watchers
>Deacons of the Deep
>Crystal Sage
>Curse-Rotted Greatwood
>Vordt of the Boreal Valley
>Ludex Gundyr

That's great news that there's plenty of more stuff to do.

Anyway even though I found the game a bit disappointing doesn't mean I think it's bad. It's still a very good game. Part of the problem is I was waiting to play it since release and I got so hyped for it following that insane launch trailer. Having to wait all this time kinda took a toll on me and the hype sorta fizzled out.

Aldritch, he's after Pontiff if you keep going up and up.

disgusting.

Bloodborne is an action game with RPG elements. Definitions do not change overtime. People say different stupid shit overtime, just like people use to call ALL game consoles Nintendo or Playstation, or how all tissues are called kleenex.

RPGs are based off table top RPGs. That's where RPGs originated from. Video game RPGs are tabletop RPG simulators.

An action game where you level is not an RPG. RPGs are about strategy, planning, and analysis. Action games are about reaction time, hand eye coordination.

learn your genres you fags. just because game "journalists" call them RPGs, doesn't make them RPGs.

Stop using normals and weak skills with shit weapons.
Alterntively, stop switching back and forth between magic and strength based classes.
These are the only reasons DD monsters would ever become damage sponges. Every class has moves that can take down bosses in seconds. Some can outright one-shot them.
