The twin princes f****d me every time. They say something like “this is our resting place, but you can join us if you like” when they beat you and that phrase will stay with me until my dying day because I had to hear it so much

That would fack me right off! They were the reason I quit on my last play through ng1. Couldn’t beat them.

Took me at least 50 attempts first time around.

Some of them. But the pontiff can fack right off, so can that lost king on the rooftop.

Pontiff is fine. You just got to be precise with your parrying. Didn’t find him much of a bother actually.

I was too scared to take on the Nameless King after reading stories

This was the only boss I really had trouble with, and in all fairness the mechanics were fine - it was just the fricking camera that was the issue for me, tracking the mother fooker was a nightmare. I actually hated the Valkyrie Queen more from GoW more as I felt it "cheated"

Orphan of Kos in Bloodbourne is the real true caaant. He is insanely difficult

I think the boss I actually died most to was Dragonslayer Armour, the Princes being a close second. He just kept on turtling and bringing out my impatience!

I’ve heard Orphan in Bloodborne is ruthless, which really makes me want to play the DLC.

Sigrun in GoW took me a good few hours to beat in my pursuit of the platinum. Thought I had it in the bag after I beat her, but then I learned that some of the ravens appear in one-off story set pieces, so you can’t just travel back to them after you’ve beaten the main story. Couldn’t be bothered playing it again right away, but one day!

Yeah Dragonslayer is strong and it doesn't help with the dragon above spitting fire down on you.
That was very satisfying when I beat him.

I actually only very recently got the DLC. After finishing DS3 back in the summer I wanted to play Bloodbourne again. I discovered that I had a game already on the go so was halfway through already. I did loads of farming because I wanted to do all the levels again. When I reached Gehrman it was then I decided to buy the DLC. I found most of it, including the bosses a cakewalk as I was really levelled up, but found Kos really difficult and gave up on him.

It's definitely worth getting just to fight Ludwig
Just imagine the Cleric Beast but twice the size and with a sjit load of fire!

I am doing a lot of the Chalice dungeons on ng1 and they have a lot of bosses in them. Currently trying to beat Watchdog of the Old Lords who is a badass.
Huge arena and huge fat dog on fire running at you!
Its really difficult even with an NPC helping you!

Gehrman has the best line in gaming when you decide to fight him “tonight, Gehrman joins the hunt” 😝

That is one of the best boss fights in gaming history. The music and arena is perfection.

Another thing I feel people don't really talk about with the PS5 is the haptics.

Like seriously Nintendo spoke about with the Switch. But didn't do anything with it......they just occasionally shook and that was it.

The haptics in the PS5 pad is honestly next gen, from being able to tell what type of ground your horse is walking on, to pulling different types of bow it's so immersive. I think I can say the dualsense is the best pad I have played with and does add an extra sensory level - the last time I felt anything like this was the old sidewinder force-feed back joysticks for flight Sims....and that was pretty limited

Totally agree that the haptics are insanely good. I can’t remember what game it was that I was playing, but you could feel the rain drops on it and it gave the game a new sense of realism.

Also, on Demon’s Souls remake, I walked past a fire on the character’s left hand side and you could feel the sense of the fire fluttering and cracking in the air on the left hand side of the pad.

It’s one thing I think would’ve made the Tony Hawk Pro Skater remake absolutely awesome on PS5, but was missed. I guess they have something of an excuse, given it was a free next gen upgrade of a PS4 game, but grinding, Ollie-ing and re-entering a vert etc would’ve felt great if they’d have utilised it properly
