Cutting your HP in half is LITERALLY ARTIFICIAL DIFFICULTY
It's also an optional challenge.

>tfw platinumed blood borne
Feels good man. Lost my copy of the game though, how much is it to download on psn?
>>344783374
About three fiddy lol (google it)
the dog isn't even very hard
>>344783167
>He hasn't been to a level 5 cursed rotten chalice yet.
This boss shows exactly how shitty the combat in this game is.
>>344783374
20 dollarydoos for vanilla and another 20 for Old Hunters
I don't understand, what are you complaining about? I don't remember bloodborne ever having a mechanic that cut your hp in half?
The only problem I had with blood borne was that I always felt like bosses did way too much damage. Like I was always one or two hits away from death. The Undead Giant with the chain balls all over it was pretty annoying because he could one shot me when I was pretty high level.
>>344783981
But it's fantastic?
>>344783167
using my phobias against me is LITERALLY artificial difficulty
anyone co op at burgerworth? kill the bugs for me, they're scary
password is raid
>>344784069
Chalice dungeons. Defiled one that you need to finish to face the queeb of yharnam.
>>344784069
You didn't do the chalice dungeons then. I don't blame you though, they are the worst part of the game.
>>344783167
This boss battle was the hardest in any souls game.
Can literally 1 shot you at any time.
>>344784474
pretty easy if your dps is high enough
co op with me pls
>>344784474
Shut the fuck up, you fucking shitter. Any level 5 chalice rotten cursed dungeon beats the dog. Because they hit even harder and the fight isn't as easy as the dog that has barly any moves.
>>344784474
hit his head after he bites, dash away and look out for his charge, that's all
the fight is piss easy compared to some of the others
>>344784573
Nope fag i could do the whole chalice with only minor issues (katana fire spitting dude was hard) but nothing comes close to dog.
>>344784739
Already got the plat 1 year ago.
Still the hardest boss fight to this day, half HP is a bitch.
>>344785003
just don't get hit then
fucking shitters having problems with one of the easiest fights in the game, lul
>>344783309
First post is best
>>344783167
Nope, it's "Learn our bosses' movesets" mode. Did BB have a sale recently or something? These threads are making me want to put some sheckels into the ps+ box for some invasions.
>>344785318
to be fair, having to start the whole boss fight over because of one mistake is pretty frustrating. It doesn't help that most bosses have absurd amounts of HP making the fights take just long enough to be annoying.
>>344785318
How does it feel to be an edgy retard?
>>344783167
defiled hotdog is all about knowing how to dodge bro
>>344785318
I wouldn't say it's one of the easiest fights in the game but there are definitely more challenging bosses
>>344784474
cursed undead giant w/ball n chain is harder.
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
*DUN DUN DUNNN*
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
*DUN DUN DUNNN*
>>344786693
definitely this
FRC bloodletting beast is worse, loran darkbeast is worse, and so is defiled amygdala
>>344786931
fucking headless beast with his xbox sized stomp hitbox, that thing has killed me far too many times.
framebeast is worse i agree.
amy can be a bitch but i always do the tail charge r2 strat now, much more manageable when farming for nourishing abyssals.
I never understood this argument, in any game. If I was able to OS everything and had to take thousands of hits to die, would a game still be hard, just "artificially" easy?
Bullshit
>>344789045
I use the tail strategy as well because it's super safe
that said, it's the one boss I absolutely hate helping people with because
1) they always fuck it up and change amy's targeting which gets either me or them killed
2) BB has lag pretty regularly and while usually it's not a big deal, when every attack is a 1 hit, it blows
>>344784252
I'll be there in a minute.
>>344783981
This boss is nothing but a matter of patience.
>>344784124
Yes absolutely wonderful
>>344784252
hoo boy, you're gonna love the boss.
>>344789980
>dude lmao i dodge straight at him why does it hit haha wtf
>>344789447
Why would you roll so early
>>344784474
easiest boss in the game.
his attacks are slow as fuck,easy to read and all you have to do is dodge his charge
>>344790192
The head goes 2 meters over the player. Not to mention
>dodging straight into enemies
is what the dumb game is built around. Are you genuinely retarded?
>>344790484
>The head goes 2 meters over the player. Not to mention
If your timing is off then that's that.
>is what the dumb game is built around.
No it fucking isn't. Some bosses can easily do sweeping strikes which will fuck you up. Pretty common for big bosses.
> Are you genuinely retarded?
Apparently you are. Sidestep only when he goes for charge, otherwise back step and you'll never die versus flaming meme dog.
Only close in purposefully when he is spitting out lava.
>>344790696
The player doesn't get even scratched at any part of the webm yet he dies. The hitboxes are plain shit. How are you so retarded that you don't understand this?
>>344790828
And how are you so retarded that you think stepping into bosses like that is a good idea?
>>344790828
I've beaten defiled hotdog probably 30 times, he's really not that hard to dodge
>>344791012
Holy fucking shit you seem to seriously think there's nothing wrong with the player dying when he doesn't get scratched. This level of delusion.
>>344790316
Did you seriously not see the lag jump? When that happens it's really hard to gauge when he's going to land because the jump animation on screen is not the actual start of his time in the air. He can land on you before he lands. I've had it before where he stays in the air a full 2-3 seconds longer than he should because of host lag.
>>344791270
Le shockwave meme and the like have existed for aeons. So fucking what?
You're whining about a boss that's piss easy to dodge and only becomes hard if you think doing steps into him is good.
>>344791458
I'm whinging about the fact that the hit detection is bullshit and shouldn't be the thing that leads to you dying. Instead of your real mistakes you die because the game works like shit.
>>344791576
It's been a fucking known issue for almost a decade now.
Had he backstepped he would've lived. Even sidestep would've easily increased chances.
>>344789980
I usually do the same thing but it never hits me.
My strategy is to rush to the back legs and combo until he collapses and the damage is increased because the limb is broken.
>>344786239
Hot Dog really is your test to see how well you can dodge. If you can't do that, then you can't beat the boss, simple as that.
tfw used up all insight on this boss and all vials and don't have it left in me to grind out more of both of them so I just quit BB
The defiled dungeon would be no sweat if it didn't just destroy your HP like that
Bloodborne has always been a game more focused on evasion than straight-up defense than the Dark Souls games, and playing properly entails completely avoiding the enemy's attacks. It stands to reason then, that a part of the game could escalate this challenge into a do or die situation. At this point you've likely finished the game, or made it most of the way through it. You've acclimated yourself to dodging attacks, now you have to fight bosses where you aren't allowed to fuck up. The challenge isn't artificial, it just gives you fewer second chances. You aren't expected to do anything you weren't expected to do before.
>>344791942
>It's been a fucking known issue for almost a decade now
But not for everything. It's like Mario maker and invisible blocks, of course it's easy once you know where they are.But here you either have to take the safe strat every time or pray the hitbox isn't fucked beyond salvation
>>344792457
You don't fuck around big bosses because they are prone for shockwaves. Even if BB was your first game you would have picked up that by the time you got to meme dog.
>But here you either have to take the safe strat every time or pray the hitbox isn't fucked beyond salvation
Why would you take the unsafe strat when you don't exactly have a window of opportunity to attack against hot dog like that?
>>344783167
Where abouts is that?
>>344783167
>Use the sword sword
>Win
>>344792106
If I'm playing solo I bait his bite and then swing once, and then if he throws up then I bash his legs.
>>344792449
This. Also chalice dungeons bosses are supposed to be hard, that's part of why they're optional.
>>344784474
Nameless King hands down.
Hotdoge can be cheesed by simply standing next to it's head and forcing it to do bites you evade easily.
>tfw i fought amygdala at level 30 on my first playthrough
it was hell but when i got to defiled amygdala i shit on that fucker so hard
>>344783167
>babys first flamelurker
>Hard
