10 Reasons Bloodborne Is Better Than Dark Souls III
5. Better Boss Design
This one is tough to admit as I actually do love the bosses in Dark Souls III, but ultimately they do not top the brilliance of Bloodbornes biggest encounters.
The biggest advantage that Bloodborne has here is an emphasis on variety over quantity. While Dark Souls III doesnt go overboard with bosses the way that Dark Souls II did, it is still a little too fond of inserting boss fights that seem to exist out of an obligation to have a boss fight. Meanwhile, bosses in Bloodborne all feel like they play a substantial role in the events that are occurring.
The variety carries over into the fights themselves as well. Many of Bloodbornes bosses have some unique mechanic that separates them from the pack while Dark Souls III occasionally treads too much old ground.
