recently, I popped in Bloodborne again to replay it because (so far) it's the best souls game I've played. I think it's probably the hardest to adapt to, since you need to be more aggressive and there aren't any shields, but once you understand the mechanics of the game, it feels really good.

The Kirkhammer is the best weapon. Smashing the shit out of monsters feels really good.

The only other games I've played in the series was Dark Souls and Dark Souls 3. I tried 2 and Sekiro, but I only played those for a couple days before I put them down, for some reason they never hooked me.

Dark Souls 2 I thought was especially bad because the early game seems to simulate difficulty by just throwing you into entire hoards of enemies that aren't hard by themselves, but instead are difficult because there's so many of them. After a few days of seeing that mechanic over and over, I thought Dark Souls 2 wasn't really for me, but tbh I didn't really give it a chance.
