10 Reasons We Need Bloodborne 2 Instead Of Dark Souls 4

4. A Fresh World To Explore

The worlds that FromSoftware have created are some of the most detailed and enjoyable to explore. Lordran was ingenious in its design and Lothric captured the essence of the original to a higher calibre than the second. However, none are more exciting and fun to explore than Yharnam. Intense and genuinely gripping to explore, with every nook and cranny offering something new and different than before.

There is an overall sense that FromSoftware really cared about the world they were creating, with the player being able to infer and interact with the world in small subtle ways. That is what Bloodborne even greater and is the reason that we need more to explore. While FromSoftware created an exceptional world, they didn’t get a real chance to stretch their creative chops with the game, most environments sticking to city streets. It excelled when it tackled areas like the Forbidden Woods and the Fishing Hamlet.

With the opportunity to expand areas beyond their typical street setting, they could create and even more enjoyable world than they did before. The game didn’t offer many chances for unique and inspiring areas, with some of the greatest ones having to detract themselves entirely from the city streets to truly shine. A game where they could be more creative could be truly inspired and the reason a sequel could offer up even more of an experience than the first.

They really nailed the tense street atmosphere, but it loses its charm when it’s the hundredth streets you explore. Don’t get wrong, they were fun, but nothing compares the Lovecraftian brilliance of places like The Fishing Hamlet.
