    It’s great fun! So long as you’re on board with the experience it is trying to create, of course. FromSoft are good at what they do and don’t much care for whether or not what they do is everyone’s cup of tea

    I’d love to try Bloodborne, because that gameplay combined with a bit of cosmic horror sounds amazing to me. I’ll have to either wait for a PC port or learn about emulation, though

    The thing that stuck out to me more than I expected about it is how painterly it often feels. It’s exceptionally good at framing its environments in a spectacular or pleasing way even while the player has full control of the camera. I’m not usually one to worry about visuals too much, but this game’s environments really stuck out to me. And while it is very high-fidelity and nicely rendered, it’s less about the actual graphical performance than it is about the design of the environments
