CraveOnline:"“Bloodborne is yet another challenging RPG adventure by From Software. But instead of thriving on deep, captivating RPG elements it focuses on violent and aggressive combat.”"

Firearms are not useless or ineffective. They are meant to be used for temporarily stopping the enemy or countering with a good timing to make a brutal counter attack. It seems some reviewers are not using the firearms right.

wakeNbake3368d ago

In a way they are like the replacement for shields in this game.

DarkOcelet3368d ago

But tbh they actually looks more useful than shields. Although i can understand why some might prefer a shield over a weapon. Strategy will be extremely important in this beauty.

''But instead of thriving on deep, captivating RPG elements it focuses on violent and aggressive combat.''

You mean like...umm...the previous soul games? The RPG stuff is there only when you want to improve your character. It isn't like this should be like Final Fantasy.

GameBoyColor3368d ago

can confirm, the gun has saved my life from certain situations that I won't mention. Way more useful than shields and it looks way more badass

nucky643368d ago

8 certainly isn't a bad review; but, I find it bizarre as to WHY they rate it lower than 99% of the other available reviews.

izumo_lee3368d ago

I guess some people are so use to a certain mechanic in games & when they change it gives them problems adjusting to them. I looks like this guy had that problem, playing Dark Souls so long you get use to the shield but when that is taken away the way you play the game changes.

I find it odd he says the game is no longer has RPG elements as in Dark Souls but it still does though. It's more of an action RPG.

Tedakin3368d ago

That happens. Ori got 9s and 10s everywhere, then IGN gave it like an 8.4.

dcj05243368d ago

I r8 8/8 gr8 b8 m8. Seriously though 8/10 is gr8 no need to complain at all.

bmwfanatic3368d ago

Im guessing they waited for the big sites to post and scored lower for the clicks.

Bathyj3368d ago

So can anyone whose played it tell me, doesnt it still have deep, captivating RPG elements?

slappy5083368d ago

8/10! What a troll review :p

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.

anast12d ago

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

neutralgamer199212d ago

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

MinnesotaFatts12d 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.

anast12d ago (Edited 12d 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 Fingers12d 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.

anast12d ago (Edited 12d 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

slayernz12d 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

anast12d ago (Edited 12d 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.

anast12d ago

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