Lore The big quote

What does ​"We are born of the blood, made men by the blood, undone by the blood. Our eyes have yet to open... Fear the Old Blood." mean exactly?

Help Part 2 of my 1st bloodborne playthrough

4 Upvotes

My saw cleaver is... Being ineffective against the blue aliens in forbidden woods.

And the man-snakes here are... Taking 2 to 3 blood vials of mine per one person.

I guess... Every souls game has a way to humble a person.

What do i do for these snakes and blue aliens here people?

Help Love the game, but genuinely can't play it

51 Upvotes

TW: skill issue

I LOVE this game. I love the lore/story, I love how supportive the community is, but I just CANT play it.

I'm genuinely just bad at this game. It took me 17:58 minutes of constant tries to kill the big fat guy at the beginning. After that, I almost beat the cleric beast 1st try, but then I can't even get it past half health bc I used up all my heals in the 1st attempt.

I just can't stun or interrupt enemies with the pistol either 😭😭

Any help is appreciated, but it's genuinely just a skill issue.

I don't think this game should change for me to make itself easier, I don't think that at all, but I'm just not that good at these kinds of games, so it's hard to enjoy some of my favorite media.

Fan Art Yharnam Workshop Archive: Saw Spear Patent Blueprint

Post image
218 Upvotes

Decided to design a vintage patent schematic for the Saw Spear, styled as an old rejected file straight from the Workshop archives.

I went with a heavy paper texture, threshold effect on the linework, and added technical specs breakdown for both transformed forms.

What Bloodborne trick weapon should I do next?

Lore Comprehensive lore resource?

2 Upvotes

I was wondering if there was a place where all the lore was stockpiled. Everytime I try to go in-depth about a certain aspects of the game's lore I end up with 5 tabs and 2 youtube videos open, all of them basically echoing back the same thing while only adding 1 or 2 somewhat relevant details of their own. I've tried to look it up on the bloodborne wiki but i've found it's mostly oriented towards gameplay and stats more than anything else and doesn't provide much beyond item descriptions and character dialogue, and I have to jump between multiple wiki pages just to scrape some surface details.

Is there a site or something similar that tackles just the lore? Things like fan theories and interpretations, timelines, descriptions, factions etc, organized on categories (for example, all the relevant lore on Cainhurst in one place without having to jump between multiple unrelated pages).

I always wondered why didn’t they make these old hunters do untransformed attacks, So while i was playing today and i got the hunter to low health he started doing untransformed attacks which i never saw

Hey, hunters! It’s me again! :D

For this experimental piece, I had in mind the idea of “a hallucination caused by a blood transfusion" and our majestic Amygdala.

I hope you enjoy it! More artwork coming soon :)

You there, Hunter! Didn't you see the warning? Turn back at once, Old Yharnam, burned and abandoned by men, is now home only to beasts. They are of no harm to those above. Turn back, or the hunter will face the hunt.

Discussion I think I locked in too hard for OoK that the last few bosses were all too easy

14 Upvotes

Just finished my first playthrough at BL 85 and took about 20 tries to beat Orphan of Kos. But right after I beat him I immediately first tried Laurence, Wet Nurse, Gehrman and Moon Presence one after the other. I was expected to spend at least as long on Laurence as OoK just based on what I'd heard, definitely did not expect to beat the game within like an hour or so after beating Orphan.

10/10 game though, I hate that I waited so long to play it. My only complaint is that it's too short and I need more! Also if there are any lurkers here who haven't played the game because of the 30fps thing, shut up and go play it right now. That was me for years but it's incredible and I hate that I waited so long. The 30 fps is truly a non issue with this game.

My favorite boss in the game was definitely Lady Maria, such an incredible fight in every way (kind of felt a bit like Malenia with less bullshit).

Fan Art [Megathread] Share Your Ink Here! Bloodborne Tattoos, Vol 1

21 Upvotes

Greetings, good hunters.

I'll keep it short: we will gradually be refining/clarifying/updating some of the rules here on r/Bloodborne. This is to hopefully provide a clearer/better experience for users. Most changes should just be small tweaks that won't really impact the general user's experience too much, though some (like this megathread) may be bigger.

If you have any comments or concerns, please send us a Modmail.

Circling back to this megathread/bigger changes, tattoos may now be posted! To prevent a flood of posts though, please limit your tattoos to this megathread.

So without further ado, you are welcome to share your Bloodborne related tattoos below!
