7.5

Review: Bloodborne | Stevivor

Steve Wright -- "I awake from my fever dream in a darkened chamber, the smell of death lingering in the air as I ease up onto my feet. The room I find myself in has many tomes adorning its wall-to-wall bookshelves, but I’ve no time to read them; I need to figure out where I am and what’s going on."

stevivor is a joke.

They want more visits with this review.

This guy makes the review with a X1 glasses.

Aloy-Boyfriend3369d ago

He didn't Praise the Moon enough.

blitz06233369d ago (Edited 3369d ago )

If the game was The Order and they gave it 7.5 would you call them a joke? Seriously, when was 7.5 a bad score.

EDIT: Hmm, not a single 8. Yeah I'm jumping on the bandwagon and questioning this site's credibility

uptownsoul3369d ago (Edited 3369d ago )

The bad things this review has is:
1) The game walks a fine line between fun and frustrating.
2) Definitely not one for everyone.
3) Load times.

1) It's a "Souls" style game so "frustrating" is part of the territory…So how is that "Bad"

2) How is it "Bad" that its not for everyone…There has NEVER been a game in history that is "Definitely for everyone"

3) He has a legit complaint about this (even though most people saw this as the way people could knock this game)

In summary, 2 of these "Bad" things are ridiculous, in my opinion. And the 3rd is predictable since the patch for load times isn't ready

Aloy-Boyfriend3369d ago (Edited 3369d ago )

@Blitz

You didn't read the review, did you? One does not simply say this game has ''ugly-ass visuals.'' The review lost the little credibility it had there

blitz06233369d ago

Yah my bad. It's one thing to criticize the visuals, it's another to do it unprofessionally. Not taking this site seriously anymore

vishmarx3369d ago

oh look everyone attention whore clickbait

Deadlead3369d ago

Damn. this game is receiving loads of great scores, but whattaya know this articles getting all the attention.

Dir_en_grey3369d ago (Edited 3369d ago )

Look at his submissions and review scores, pretty much on a mission to drag down scores of PS branded games and favors the Nintendo brand.

He deducted a point because it didn't play on his Xbox.

nucky643369d ago

it's not really a bad review - I read it. the guy struggled to play - kept saying it was too hard and I get that. it's not going to be for everyone - he even says this in his "cons" for the game. he also said it looks like a ps3 game - but the screen he shows looks terrible compared to the beautiful scenery from early players on youtube....so, I can't figure that out.
overall, it sounded like the reviewer was in over his head as far as the difficulty and he let his personal feelings into his review. I don't think reviewers should do this; but, he did.

izumo_lee3369d ago (Edited 3369d ago )

The thing is the site gave Dark Souls 2 a 9/10 & that game is just as hard as Bloodborne or any other Souls game.

If he describes Bloodborne as a PS3 game complaining about the visuals so why did Darks Souls 2 get a high score even though the game doesn't look that good either.

The guy just couldn't adjust to the games different style which explains why he mentioned the fine line from fun to frustrating, however one of his pros was 'Challenging as Hell' so what is it. Challenging or frustrating?

nucky643369d ago (Edited 3369d ago )

thanks for the replies - and yea, with your info, steviors review makes even less sense.
and, I've looked at quite a few other reviews of this game; and, they ALL praise the visuals - so, what is stevior looking at?

NecotheSergal3369d ago

Anyone else have the chrome blacklist app, to ensure no one accidentally gives any traffic to websites like this? Cause we all know even if we rate it WTF? and 'No' - it'll keep pushing their garbage on N4G and continue to milk as many hits as they want.

Blacklist the site to ensure they Never get any hits from those who know they're incapable of producing anything worth reading. I already got around 10 on my list.

dcj05243369d ago

In what world is 7.5 bad?

ArnoDorian3369d ago

Lol...... okay then. We have to have some of these I guess.

Minus points:
- "The game walks a fine line between fun and frustrating."
- "Definitely not one for everyone."
- "Stupid long load times and ugly-ass visuals."

What a laughable reviewer.

How about sequels instead of just replaying the same games with better performance and fidelity?

I would’ve taken a Dead Space 4 over Dead Space 1 Remake, especially knowing the sales on 1 Remake killed anything for the future.

xHeavYx12d ago

I agree, but there are some games that would really benefit from the new tech though, like the first 2 InFamous games. Some of the old Tenchu games (for us old people)

darthv7213d ago

No remasters needed... things can be upgraded with post release patches and DLC. There should be more new games or at least sequels that people have been asking for. Give me Bloodborne 2 over a remaster any day.

anast13d ago

I agree. But, sadly, at this point, I would day 1 a Bloodborne remake or remaster.

neutralgamer199213d ago

There are many new games being released monthly so there is space for remakes and remasters

MinnesotaFatts13d ago

You say that, but the only way I can get 60fps on Bloodborne is with a cracked console.

D0nkeyBoi13d ago

This is the most boring console generation yet. I can only ever find new games on Steam. PS5 and especially Xbox are boring right now. Less more remakes please.

anast13d ago (Edited 13d ago )

I enjoy renting a new janky CRPGs on PC from time to time. But, I've been playing new games on the PS5 since it came out, and a lot of those games people want to come to PC because the game selection sucks over there.

Fishy Fingers13d ago

PC game selection sucks?

Come on bro, its cool to like your console but but no need for the obvious passive aggressive comments. PC and Nintendo are basically the only platforms with exclusives these days. PC is getting all the big console (PS5/XB) games sooner or later.

anast13d ago (Edited 13d ago )

All the CRPGs I care to play/rent have come to console for the most part. No need to use my gaming PC much these days. Now, those old games are severely overpriced on console which would be a point to argue.

slayernz12d ago

what you on about mate???? lol, i never said anything about AAA only being on console, i replied to original post from donkey saying heaps of games out there, ....just chill out bud

slayernz13d ago

think you should open your eyes mate, there are a ton of games to play, i havent played a so called 'AAA' game in about a year, been having way too much fun with indies

anast13d ago (Edited 13d ago )

I play Indies on console. My eyes are open. You might need the eye opening if you think only AAA games are on console.

Friendlygamer13d ago (Edited 13d ago )

Remasters are interesting for less accessible titles, things like silent hill 4 the room, alundra, viewtiful joe... remastering stuff that's already avaliable is a bit of a waste. I would love a kings field/shadow tower collection

truthBombs13d ago

A simple update or port on more powerful hardware is enough. Improve framerates to 60+ and that's good enough. I would love to play Bloodborne on Steam Deck.

anast13d ago

If they optimized Bloodborne like they did with Doom. I would have that game on every device in the house.
