Forgive the terrible title. I just really needed a post to
kick this thing off, and act as the basis for why I am creating this blog. Simply
put, the main function is to act as an archive as I explore the world of
Bloodborne.
If you have played or know anything about Demon’s Souls or
Dark Souls 1 & 2, you’ll probably know that these are game worlds with a
rich mythology and lore, presented obtusely (as most things about these games
are presented). For myself, the inscrutable storytelling of these games is what
I love most, and with Bloodborne I get my first opportunity to explore one of
these games before the internet has analyzed and dissected the games, and be
part of the community exploring this strange new world. Even more exciting is
that it is a new IP, giving someone like myself level playing field with the
veterans of FROM Software lore diving.
Pre-Release
Leading up to the release of the game, I will be posting
summaries of what is known about the world of Bloodborne so far, and what lore
and story questions are raised by this information. Honestly, I am just
gobbling up every morsel that I’m being fed. Most of the pre-release content
will be in an effort to create a foundation once the game is released and I can
really sink my teeth into the lore.
Post-Release
Even typing the words “post-release” makes me excited. At
that point, I’ll be diving headfirst into the game,
enjoying it, trying to make sense of it all. To this end, the blog will be more
or less a journal of my experience.
Well, that’s all for this post. If you’re actually taking a
look at this blog right now, sorry for the rough nature of it all, but thanks
for stopping by and please come back! The first step is the biggest one, and I
just had to get this thing rolling. Keep
an eye here, as I have already written summaries for the available information
at this point, and should be up pretty quickly.
