Game isn't that bad it does have some fukked up parts to it. I was exploring this one part where I automatically died and lost like 40k blood echoes. That shyt had me
because I couldn't even retrieve them.
Bloodborne is like trying a new thing for the first time like exercising/clean eating etc. shyt is difficult and foreign as fukk @ first but you get used to it and you're able to eventually master the game. The first part where you guys are stuck @ I'm able to go through that area and kill most of those enemies with one hit now.
The key to this game is having a strategy when you come up on some dude you've never seen before go towards him then dodge his ass to see what his moves are like. I do that with bosses as well and look for spots where I can exploit it. Approach each fight with some type of strategy breh. Big ass enemies are slow and methodical you can circle their asses and light them up. Some are so big you can stay behind them the whole time and just wail on their asses.
If you're having trouble in the first part of the game use your gun brehs. As soon as they wind up to hit you hit L2 this stuns the enemy then go up to them and press R1 to perform a visceral attack that will take most of if not all their life. This also can be performed when you sneak up on an enemy and hit them with a charged R2 attack from behind. Another word of advice is be aware of your HP,stamina, and surroundings @ all times. Don't find yourself backed into a corner with 3 or 4 enemies on your ass. Also don't be greedy brehs I've died so many times when I had just a little HP left and I thought I could get that last hit on the enemy to kill them and get HP back.
Don't give up brehs I've never played a soul game and I'm progressing through the game. You can too with a little time and practice.
