I took an 8 hour nap instead of playing after work :<
By Kalila 2015-03-26 04:01:02
I woke up monday to go to work, got home at 5, started playing Bloodborne at 11 PM at release, then went to work Tuesday, got home at 4 PM, played until 8 AM Wednesday, slept 2 hours, and now sleeping a few more before work.
How very irresponsible of me ;< but I can't help it. I'm having so much fun, this is really an amazing game.

I don't blame you. If the workload I put up with wasn't so ridiculous I'd have done the same.
Or used to put up with. Yesterday was my last day.

Two attempts for the second boss. Ended up going into an area I'm sure is a bit tougher than I should be in, ran into a boss and bailed out when it became extremely clear my damage output wasn't going to be enough.

I think, you have to summon someone to get an invader. I could be wrong though. That's what I understood from the manual as well.

You can be invaded regardless. but you're nearly guaranteed if you summon a phantom.

Lol, how couldn't I think of that.. I kinda thought: "enough running away!" after the first dog, and decided to take on the first guy barehanded, wasn't actually that hard

I finally did it last night, trail blazed a huge area without dying, survived several ambushes in Hamlet Valley basically clear the entire area like a champ... then I kill myself by running off a ledge trying to grab a ladder going down.

Bloodborne took the top critic / user score on metacritic for PS4, and isn't getting a critic review below 80%.

Hit him a few times, then climb back down the ladder to heal. Repeat as necessary. I got lucky and he backstepped off a the tower to his death.

Heads up guys.
Quote: Bloodborne players, make sure you don't summon or invade anyone during the game's Forbidden Woods section! Right now, doing so will prevent you from acquiring a crucial progression item. Sony says a patch is coming next week.
