The WhatsNext verdict
If you want fast, aggressive action combat wrapped in oppressive gothic and cosmic-horror worldbuilding, Bloodborne delivers unusually well. It is a poor fit if repeated attempts, opaque storytelling, or resource farming quickly become frustrating.
What it does best
Aggressive combat with visceral momentum
A suffocating descent from gothic night into cosmic horror
Interlocking streets built for discovery
A mystery that rewards obsessive interpretation
What might put you off
Severe difficulty and repetition
Obscure storytelling
The setup
What you are walking into
An action RPG in which the player embodies a Hunter who, after being transfused with the mysterious blood local to the city of Yharnam, sets off into a "night of the Hunt", an extended night in which Hunters may phase in and out of dream and reality in order to thin the outbreak of abominable beasts that plague the land and, for the more resilient and insightful Hunters, uncover the answers to the Hunt's many mysteries.
