Crisp Action RPG with great scope, magnificent Soundtrack & brilliant graphic design, packed in chic Steelbook Case

I can only say to the game itself, it definitely has a great graphics and a terrific atmosphere. The whole is appropriately captured by an orchestral soundtrack. The German language edition is at a good level. Exemplary: you can before and during the game language (voice & text separately) provide in Spanish, English, German or French.

Demon Souls and Dark Souls, I have not played so far because I just have it (especially the level of difficulty) quenched the reports. Bloodborne I could at last year's Gamescom auditions and found it right class. Only the Schweirigkeitsgrad was felt there noticeably. Now that I was able to test the full version since Monday extensively I have to say that it has become not really simple. But once you get used to the fact that control and methods of attack, we proceed always better. The virtual death still belongs here but the standard program.

Those looking for a stress-free game should definitely make a detour around Bloodborne. Even the farms of XP points to strengthen its attributes is here extremely important, because otherwise against raid bosses and larger opponent sees little country. For me it was the beginning already slightly frustrating as the game really punished the slightest mistake. Yet it never seems unfair. With each Auflevelung and adapted attack tactics to get ahead better and there is a steady learning curve.

The only negative aspects so far (have the game by far not yet!) The following for me:

- Little or no explanation. Many Gegenstaände you get are short described, but the benefits or what you should always do with it opens up a little. Possibly there have DarkSouls veterans it easier. Who but previously played no game from the developers' From Software "is often how the Ochs vorm Berg.

- Coop Mode. I have then imagined but much less complicated. This can not just start, but there are various bells that you people need to activate Coop, 1 vs 2, etc. But this case is probably the requirement that those who want to play with each other are not big deal in the level. All this feels just as complicated as it reads. A Coop mode with two friends of mine, I could not test so far. Too bad.

All in all, but the hoped-for great fortune "From Software" with bloodborne. Those looking for a challenge and nothing against learning by doing, getting here is definitely a next gen adventure worthy presents countless hours enthusiastically. The controller works perfectly except for minimal exceptions, only the camera gets in close and winding sections often causes problems. The S can especially in confrontation with powerful opponents quickly sometimes lead to Bildschirmtod. This is especially annoying because the checkpoints are sown rar, almost all previously completed opponents are back. No game for everyone, but who is undecided, the game should definitely retest times and severally make his own judgment.

For Collector's Edition;
----------------------------------
- The cardboard sleeve has a high quality feel (rubber) and is sufficiently stable.
- The artbook istzwar small but already contains artworks and is bound.
- The soundtrack is as a digital download. Here I would have found it's great if you had these attached as CD, as for example in Assassins Creed Unity or Lords of the fall.
- But the showpiece is the Steelbook packaging. This just looks beautiful and high quality. Depending on light Just the look is very variable. A real eye-catcher.

For just 10-15 euros more, definitely worth getting. Especially the great Steelbook worthwhile for collectors definitely. Top!
