What can one say about this masterpiece of a game! I believe that games like this prove why game development should be considered an art. The positive reviews and all the awards are definitely not random; this is a game that you will enjoy from the first to the last minute.
(I will try to say things that haven't been said by others in order for the review to make sense)
Pros:
1) Ellie and Tess are incredibly well-crafted NPCs that don't make you feel like they depend on you or that they are a burden you carry.
2) Playing the game with headphones made me appreciate the voice acting, the AMAZING music, as well as all the small details that you don't notice right away but their absence would be noticeable (like bird chirping, the sound of water from rivers, and the overall deathly silence that prevails in such an environment and brings other sounds to light). The world feels realistic and represents incredibly well how such a situation could actually be.
3) The crafting system won me over because it encourages you to explore the paths, giving the game the feeling of an open-world game.
4) Great puzzles that are distributed throughout the entire game and are combined with the stealth battles, where in order to not be detected by the soldiers, you have to find their patrols and the patterns they follow so you can kill them one by one without being noticed.
5) Finally, I can't overlook the amazing story, the incredible performances, and the fantastic cinematic scenes (which with the PS4 graphics feel like a movie).Cons: (these are personal opinions/details that I thought of while playing, I mention them simply because I couldn't find anything negative)
1) Maybe the normal difficulty wasn't suitable (at least for me) because after a certain point, the weapons are highly upgraded and the enemies become quite easy, without meaning that I didn't die obviously. I just would have liked a bit more challenge towards the end.
2) It often happened that I would be hiding behind an obstacle and Ellie would be in a position where the soldiers could see her, but they wouldn't discover me, or she would speak loudly while we were in a battle/stealth situation with enemies just 1 meter away. It's a hilarious detail, I just wanted to mention it because when it happened (only a couple of times), I laughed.Final verdict: 5/5 blindfolded. The game is a masterpiece in every sense of the word. It honors both Naughty Dog and Sony for having exclusivity on such titles. A title that EVERY gamer MUST have played, it has that magic that whether you're a casual or hardcore gamer, you can handle the difficulties and in your own way, you determine the level of challenge. Would buy again 100%, I highly recommend it to everyone.

The game is simply incredible!! I had never played any "souls" game before, but after bloodborne, I will definitely play them all.. I have been playing for about a month now and I can't stop. Literally, the game captivates you with its depth, as it has a huge amount of content with many difficult battles that will challenge even the most skilled players.
Pros:
a) amazing atmosphere
b) enjoyable difficult and fast gameplay that keeps you on the edge the whole time
c) lore (personally, I loved the story to the point where I did a Google search to learn more about the world)
d) replayability
e) epic boss fightsCons:
a) the first level is perhaps designed to break you (especially if you haven't played another game in the series, like me. I died COUNTLESS times, but gradually you understand how to move and improve)
b) very few frame drops, which, however, in no way detract from the enjoyment
c) may be challenging for a casual gamer (although I believe that over time it wins you over)In conclusion, I believe that bloodborne is a reason to have/get a PS4. For those of you who are considering it, just buy it, it will reward you in every aspect. "May the good blood guide your way"
