Vizioneck Halloween Gaming Thread

Was originally playing Baldur's Gate 3. Changed to Bloodborne for a change of pace and decided it would be my Halloween game.  

Spoiler for Hidden:

There&#39;s a lot that I can say about Bloodborne. It&#39;s my favorite game ever.&nbsp;&nbsp;<br><br><br>Mechanically it feels so good to play.&nbsp;<br>Dashing is one of the single most satisfying mechanics I&#39;ve ever played.&nbsp;&nbsp;<br><br><img src="https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b1562924cde7ad879d8107c/1539190178829-7Z3A1JJURZVI1BOZXJ9H/jptjiqweksichkvu4n8g.gif" alt="" class="bbc_img" loading="lazy"> <br><br>The game can really thread the line between &quot;can you see what is even going on&quot; and &quot;you&#39;re in control of the situation&quot; in the best way.<br><br>It is wildly more responsive than Dark Souls 1 and 2.&nbsp;&nbsp;<br><br>The world isn&#39;t quite as intertwined as Dark Souls 1, but it&#39;s still very good. I think a lot of Bloodborne also does similarly well by making it feel like you&#39;re getting further and further along into a nightmare.&nbsp;&nbsp;<br><br>Bloodborne feels more thematic to me than the others. I feel like there&#39;s so much more of a coherent world design in Bloodborne than some of the others.&nbsp;<br><br>I love the saw cleaver, quickly whacking away several hits.&nbsp;<br><br>The move from regular monsters to horrific alien monsters is great.&nbsp;&nbsp;<br>

This is either my 6th or 7th time playing Bloodborne.

Huh I didn't realize bloodborne was your favorite of the souls.

I'd probably rank them like this. Maybe swapping Demon's Souls and Dark Souls 3. 

Bloodborne > Dark Souls 3 > Demons Souls > Dark Souls 1 > Elden Ring > Dark Souls 2

I thought I'd try Alone in the Dark 2024 again.  I tried last year, but it was too scary.

Sounds scary.

I don't really get scared during video games, except jump scares haha.

What put Alone in the Dark over the top for you?

It was just tense.  Plus the first monster was pretty creepy and I had trouble killing it.  Then I died

I've been playing Castlevania Anniversary collection (NS).


So far finished 6 out of the 8 games - just finished Castlevania 2 Belmont's Revenge (GB) on it.


Gonna start on Castlevania Bloodlines tomorrow.
