    Bloodborne is in some ways the follow up to Demon Souls I wanted. While Dark Souls have been worthy successors, they never had the atmospheric intensity Demons' did. Bloodborne doesn't quite hit the mark but gets much closer, being the most obviously inspired by gothic and lovecraftian horror game yet. I especially love the more Castlevania-looking areas. It's kind of what 3D Castlevania games should have been.

    That said, I find the more limited repertoire of weapons and play styles more disappointing the farther I got in the game. Also the difficulty curve is out of whack. The the most frustrating bosses are encountered early, while becoming too easy in the back half of the game. All the soul games have a point where you start running downhill, but here it's so strong the ending isn't as satisfying as it should.

    Despite enjoying it a good deal while playing it, the thought of going back to it isn't very enticing compared to Fromsoft's previous games.
