10 Incredible Video Games Most People Abandoned At The Start
5. Bloodborne
Though FromSoftware games have a well-earned rep for their mighty difficulty, players also tend to know what they're getting into and won't hang up the controller eagerly.
But even with that in mind, Bloodborne is generally accepted to be one of the hardest SoulsBorne games to date, and as such even FromSoft's die-hard fans didn't get too far through it before taking off.
In fact, 55.7% of players couldn't even beat the game's first mandatory boss, Father Gascgoine, who can be encountered less than two hours into the story.
Sure, Daddy G is basically a skill-check boss hurled at players while they're still acclimating to the early stages of the game, but considering the grit and mettle of your average FromSoft fan, the lack of perseverance on display here is genuinely surprising.
Even with such a low completion rate for its first proper boss, though, Bloodborne's platinum trophy still has a relatively high 6.8% for a game of this difficulty level, suggesting that if you can make it through the first couple of bosses, you're probably going to commit to the long, brutal haul.
