The ten year anniversary is upon us GAF. Say Something, Anything.

Looking back, how has Bloodborne's reputation evolved over time? Do you still see it as a classic, or has its legacy changed - will the clamour for more Bloodborne ever be fulfilled? What are your memories of getting stomped on? Also, ten years has passed

[rofif]

Only ported. 4k120.
Don’t touch the graphics

 

[Thick Thighs Save Lives]

Don't mind me, I'm just busy conjuring up a Bloodborne remake.

 

[Giallo Corsa]

4K60
Touch the graphics from the ground up/remake it

 

[Cakeboxer]

A bit overhyped, but wouldn't mind plying it on pc.

 

[Danny Dudekisser]

It's a classic. I don't want a remake or a remaster or a sequel. I just want a port that cleans up the PS4 version's issues. I don't believe any additional tinkering would be an improvement.

 

[FingerBang]

All the game needs to be successful is a way to play at higher framerates and ideally with a higher resolution.

And yes, it should be on PC as well. This would be the easiest fucking money Sony can make, seriously.

Typical Bloodborne topic on Neogaf

A topic about Bloodborne is being created:

1) The best souls game that was made
2) The most overrated souls game
3) A remake is needed
4) No need for a remake, it's a classic, just make a remaster 60 fps 4k
5) The game is so-so but I would play it on PC
6) You'll see during the next State of Play - Exhibition they announce a remake - remaster
7) Nothing is happening

After 2-3 months, create another topic and repeat all points from 1 to 7.

 

[DelireMan7]

No need for a sequel or remake.

I'll accept a remaster with 60 FPS because I have enough of the "Bloodborne is unplayable. Give 30 FPS" crowd.

 

[Monad]

A really enjoyable game with great atmosphere and artistic design (in fact, it's the only Souls game I've completed), but incredibly overrated for being a Sony exclusive.

 

[Melchiah]

Remastered/remade and sequelled. The best way to maximize the sequel's impact by re-releasing the original first in an improved form.

 

[DavidGzz]

A, B, and D.

In on FU Sony thread.

 

[FeralEcho]

My 2nd fav game of all time!
Not much to say about this masterpiece that hasnt already been said. It just needs a 4k60 port and it would be perfect. Emulation will have to do for now it seems...

Honestly,after all the indiference the game has been treated with over all these years all I can say is:

#FuckYouSony!

 

[bighugeguns]

Great and unique game, cool atmosphere, deserves some kind of remaster, Sony sucks gigantic donkey balls.

 

[DenchDeckard]

Just port it to PS5 and PC.

 

[Kenneth Haight]

Sony, make it happen ffs. Even give us a 60fps patch if you’re not doing a remake

 

[brenobnfm]

Just remaster, 120fps with VRR and 4k. And keep Bluepoint as far away as possible.

 

[Danjin44]

Just remaster, 120fps with VRR and 4k. And keep Bluepoint as far away as possible.

This so much, I love Bloodborne’s aesthetics too much to see it ruined by Bluepoint’s artstyle.

 

[Schmendrick]

I´d love a sequel, but between this and something like Elden Ring 2 I´d still prefer From to focus their attention on Elden Ring.
Why this game never got an official 60 fps / higher res patch when modders could do it in their spare time on the side is a real headscratcher though.

 

[Hyet]

Sony would want to keep this close to their chest. If Demon Souls wasn't ported to PC by now I would suspect they would do an uplift that enables 60fps play and keep it PS exclusive.

PC port is too much of a good guy move for Sony to even think about.

 

[rm082e]

I want a remake from BluePoint, just like the DS remake. Then I want a sequel.

 

[Dr.Morris79]

It weirdly seems older

 

[Danjin44]

I want a remake from BluePoint, just like the DS remake. Then I want a sequel.

 

[Dr. Suchong]

It weirdly seems older

The intolerable screeching and wailing for a remake/remaster would put years on anything, including myself.
Honestly, everytime I hear someone talk about Bloodborne, another grey hair appears on my head.

 

[lughnasadh123]

I'll give it this - it's an overall better souls game than Elden Ring.

 

[64gigabyteram]

shadps4 should hurry its progress up so we can have a 100% PS4 accurate Bloodborne by the end of the month

 

[Saber]

I think the most creative thing about Bloodborne is that it create the Rally mechanic, which incentives agressivity over being defensive. Can't believe I had this conversation with a Gaf member so idiot that don't even know that, he was so focused in giving wetdream excuses for a PC version that could not even read what he wrote.

Other than that the scaling in the game isn't great and I could barelly call arcane being something like magic. Silverbullets should be reserved to firearms, its a weird thing but I guess they couldn't just abbandon magic.
I like very much the idea of Chalice dungeons and its designs. But unfortunatelly its more like a grind place for PVP and the randomized aspect of it makes it less fun to explore.
My favorite places are the Orphanage and Castle of Cainhurst.

I want a remake from BluePoint, just like the DS remake. Then I want a sequel.

The last thing Bloodborne need is graphical fetishes ruining its asthetic.

 

[DelireMan7]

I'll give it this - it's an overall better souls game than Elden Ring.

In my opinion any others Soulsborne is better than Elden Ring

I think you may be right there, I've practically gone fully grey in that time

 

[lughnasadh123]

Now that's brutal.

 

[Represent.]

Most overrated game of all time

 

[DaciaJC]

The utter disdain with which Sony has treated the Bloodborne fanbase over the years is truly remarkable. Not porting the game to PC is by itself a major faux pas, but not even bothering to release a proper PS4 Pro patch for it? Just shameful.

It's a brilliant game. Not without faults, of course, and in some ways it's a step down from the Dark Souls series, but still incredible nonetheless.

 

[Fake]

Only ported. 4k120.
Don’t touch the graphics

And remove achromatic ab and I'll good.

I remember a HDMI cable doing that on Bloodborne.

 

[Chuck Berry]

The one save that didn't carry over to my Pro (and it was on the fucking cleuud and everything)

Was pretty much one shotting most bosses. First time replaying since 2015. I was shocked by how much I was kicking its ass.

Guess I'll wait another decade to replay again. Maybe by then it'll be updated.

 

[angelgs90]

Just a 60fps patch on the PS4 code.

Come on Sony.

 

[Chuck Berry]

Fuck, typing that out just now really makes me want to replay it

MIYAZAKIIIIIIIIIIIIII!!!!!!!

 

[Protocol7]

 

[Mr Hyde]

My favorite game of all time. The fact that Sony hasn't put out a remaster for PS5 has made me hate the company. If there is any game that deserves a remaster it's Bloodborne.

 

[iHaunter]

4K60
Touch the graphics from the ground up/remake it

I agree. 120hz is silly. Just max graphics 4k/60 on PS5 Pro. 1440/60 on PS5.

 

[HRK69]

Sony, make it happen ffs. Even give us a 60fps patch if you’re not doing a remake

 

[The Wheel of Fortune]

I just want a remaster, at this point. 4K/60 FPS is all I ask for.
Bluepoint should stay the fuck away from it, I don’t want them fucking the game up with their “artistic reinterpretation” of it just like they did with the DeS remake.

 

[Horseganador]

The best FROM game.

 

[Holammer]

Just needs resolutions, improved/unlocked framerate and future proofing with DLSS/FSR4/PSSR. Then some small fixes like better ragdolls, screen space reflections.
Basically work hobbyists would do for free.

If they want to make it extra special, include deleted content and make a small expansion.

 

[Euler007]

It's upon us march 24th. Bit early.

 

[Sooner]

Option 1 and 2

 

[Giallo Corsa]

The best FROM game.

With Sekiro a very close 2nd...

 

[yurinka]

Miyazaki said he doesn't see the point of remastering/remaking that early, and makes more sense to keep 2 generations of distance as happened with Demon's Souls.

I assume Sony will respect that and won't release a remaster/remake (+ PC port) until at least the PS6 release, which I estimate would be November 2027.

I think they won't announce anything for the anniversary. If something, I think the most likely thing they could announce and maybe show a teaser of a movie or anime adaptation.

Regarding gaming, I think the most likely thing -not much- they may announce would be a sequel with a teaser with TBA as date, which maybe would be released early 2028, some months after the remaster, as PS5/PS6 crossgen game.

 

[Arachnid]

Sequel, remake, port, demake, remake the demake

All of it, give me Bloodborne
