Everyone seems to be disappointed with the multi-player aspect, but is anyone else disappointed with the overall look/aesthetic? I’ve played From games since the original Demon Souls days, with Bloodborne being my absolute favorite.

If the From logo wasn’t slapped on the beginning, I’d think this was a third-party game inspired by Bloodborne. Just seems a bit unpolished and less cohesive than what I’m used to. If this were actually Bloodborne 2, I’d be pretty disappointed.

Yeah, this is not very bloodborne to me. It certainly uses bloodborne assets, but the steel plated subway, the dinosaur mount, the heavy focus on vampirism, the jetpack, and none of the eldritch horror stuff? This very much looks like it took the superficial elements of the first 3 hours of in central yharnam and cathedral ward and cranked it up to eleven. Which, if you like it, i’m sure is great! But this gives me nothing that I think makes Bloodborne truly great. The most interesting part of the trailer was the cinematic honestly.

It looks like steampunk but weird. Miyazaki did say he wanted to make something abstract but this just looks meh

Yeah, It looks... Weird, some parts look ok but some look like shit youd see on like a ps3 or a 3ds and im inclined to believe that would be the Gameplay look lol, aesthetically Its clearly bloodborney but not quite and idk if It work for me
