I think Bloodborne is one of the best games I've ever played. I'm on a little trip right now and away from my PS4 which means I'm not exploring Old Yarnahm. I've never played any of the previous Souls games that preceded Bloodborne, so I decided to remedy that today. I grabbed Dark Souls 2 on Steam, plugged in a controller and started dying over and over again.
So much of what I love about Bloodborne is present here as well. It's also hard as fuck. I just played for about two hours and then lost all my souls when I fell off a tree in some fortress I'm sure I'll never be able to find again. So that feels about right I'd say.
