Speaking about their music, I swear to god their huge cosmic bombardment attack is synced up to the giant crescendo in the music. They can do it outside of that, but when that happens I can guarantee it's coming.

Ive binged out on this game for the past 2 weeks. i think the lores really great stuff. Easily the most cryptic storytelling fromsoft has done..i like to think great ones arent so bad, and humanity just opened up a giant can of worms onto itself

Easily the most cryptic storytelling fromsoft has done..i like to think great ones arent so bad, and humanity just opened up a giant can of worms onto itself The game feels pretty straightforward in it’s depictions of humans as fleshy bacteria that corrupt and distort the gifts of the old ones. And if the game wasn’t as clear as it could be about that, the DLC really hammers home that we are just totally blood drunk bastards.

PantsBandit posted:I think the Moon Presence being destroyed would end the Hunter's Dream, seems like a pretty significant change for that world considering the hunters no longer have any sort of centralized goal or power-structure I mean the Hunters don't seem to have any sort of real central structure or organization. Within a generation of their founding they've schismed into dozens of splinter organizations who are working at a number of cross purposes. The workshop is long abandoned in the real world and even in the dream Gherman has resorted to recruiting unsuspecting foreigners for the most recent hunt.

Even the Hunters are little more than blood-crazed serial killers stalking the streets killing townsfolk, who are themselves undergoing the throes of blood madness.

The job Hunter of Beasts (in the vein of the Hunter's Workshop in Yharnam) likely started with the discovery of the Pthumerian crypts (if not before, as beasts likely still existed just not in the overwhelming way they infest Yharnam). But the mystical binding contract to complete a specific night will no longer exist, or be vastly different. As only the Hunter of the Dream gets it's benefits, but all Hunters clearly have access to the bells and things. Gascoigne can be summoned and he's definitely not a Hunter of the Dream, wherease Eileen and Djura both suggest they were.

I made the mistake of listening to the soundtrack last week and it compelled me to reinstall and play through for a fifth time. After playing sekiro, I'm a lot more willing to engage in the gun counter attack mechanic. Previous playthroughs pretty much exclusively used sprinting, strafing, and dodging. It also feels a lot easier but that may also be because I'm not playing it near blackout drunk like before. I'm already up to cainhurst. Time to see if I can parry that old fogie

The first time I fought the 3 hunters in yahar’gul I was completely shitfaced, and managed to kill 2 and get the other one down to critical hp before he got me, no cheesing no kiting. I’ve never been able to come close to repeating this sober or otherwise

Lol, while plastered, I one shotted the orphan of kos the first time I encountered it. I barely remembered how I did it, just that I was left gasping with a sliver of health and no more vials. Clearly an amazing fight that I'll NEVER be able to recreate

But the mystical binding contract to complete a specific night will no longer exist, or be vastly different. As only the Hunter of the Dream gets it's benefits, but all Hunters clearly have access to the bells and things. Beasts appear to be inherent to the world of Bloodborne, with foreign hunters showing beasts are not limited to this particular place, and the remains of Loran showing evidence of them stretching far back in time. I guess it's possible that organized hunting came about with Cainhurst nobles and was further codified by Gherman, but if this is so why are there foreign hunters? It seems more likely that this is just the first mention in game of what is clearly a necessary role in this world. People seem split on whether there can be more than one dream-sustained hunter/Hunter of the Dream at any one time. Gehrman struck his deal to combat the Scourge. I guess it is possible that Gherman contracted Hunters sequentially; each either fulfilled some limited duty or failing at their ultimate duty before he released them, one way or another. However, I think it is also possible that many Hunters were contracted to start with, but have been released and died, become beasts or have disappeared into some nightmare by the time the player arrives. The few we do meet are the last, and none of them seem long for this world. Also, we already have evidence that the dream is capable of sustaining more than just one Hunter; how else would you explain Ghermans long life? thotsky fucked around with this message at 23:23 on Apr 28, 2021 |

Also really fits well with what we know of Gherman's backstory, before he became a Hunter he was the Groundskeeper at Byrgenwerth, indeed it's telling that a lot of the earlier Trick Weapons are weaponized tools like saws and axes, things Gherman would have known how to use and would have easily been able to teach to new Hunters in the early days before the craft became more sophisticated under the auspices of groups like the Powderkegs(and the Unseen Village Hunters who succeeded them), the League, and of course various Church Hunter groups

Getting to do a full, fresh NG run with Burial Blade/Blade of Mercy as my kit was some of the most fun I’ve ever had in a video game ever, let alone Bloodborne.
