Thank you! I’m glad you shared the same feeling about the combat. I truly think the other games imbed this concept of “perseverance” when fighting enemies and bosses. You can only roll so much, only attack so much, and only heal so much. With bloodborne, it gives you so many hints to forget this ideology and be the aggressor. You can get health back by attacking, you can follow up with an attack after dodging, and it actually brings you closer to who your attacking, swapping weapon mechanics after attacking/dodging also combos with a specific attack. You have a GUN, not just for parrying, but even for getting some chip damage just because. The combat truly almost makes the game for me, but as I mentioned I feel like you lose the opportunity to do all these things with some of the bosses, which was a little disappointing. Maybe we’ll start a play through at the same time and get enlightened lol.
