Took me 28 hours on my very first playthrough.  That brings the grand total of games beat in 2014 up to 18 or 19.

Is that normal for that game you think? Congrats on the latest beat down you've given to a game!

Very good! What is your final impression of the game. Before, you were a student, now you are a master! Cool

My final impression?  Weeelllll.....

I enjoyed it far more than the other 2 games once I hit my stride.  I get it now about the atmosphere. ..its far more enveloping than the latter games.  The whole world felt more bleak than either Lordran or Drangleic.  I was only able to summon help 4 times the entire game, and 2 of the 4 were to help me with the False King.  

They both died midway thru the battle, leaving me to fell the FK solo.  

Im going back for another run for sure...I didnt get to see Selen Vinland, Satsuki or Executioner Miralda.  Its easily now my favorite of the Souls series....an accomplishment for sure!

28 hours? Damn dude! Took me 35 hours my first time, but I fucked around with Soul Tendency and shit.

 Also, Did you feel like an asshole after defeating Maiden Aestrea? 

Also Also, Miyazaki stated that he wants all of Bloodborne to have a similar atmosphere to the Tower of Latria, in that he wants it all to be creepy as fuck. What are your thoughts on that?

Also Also Also Fuck the last boss. He's not that hard, but getting to him sucked dick.

I liked that last level. It's a cool castle seige with a dragon at the end, oh wait ...that fucking dragon. No, you are right. It totally sucks dick!

The presence of Maiden Astraea confused me...I didn't even want to kill Garl Vinland, though I did for sure.

I think in retrospect the Tower Of Latria is the spookiest part of the game.  If that's gonna be the basis for Bloodborne, I'm all for it.  I was hating ToL at first and ended up feeling it to be the most atmospheric of the levels.

You're right about he False King...I ended up killing him on the 3rd try, but my knuckles were white the whole time.  I had more failed attempts trying to reach him than attempts at him.

Let's see how I do in NGP though....I've a feeling I'm going to be dying a lot more!

Nice! Probably would have taken me longer.

My time in-game is a direct corrollary to my time with Dark Souls games.  If you recall...it took my 90 hours to beat my first playthrough of Dark Souls II....I look back on that and think....wow.  I really played that game the wrong way my first time

You are a master of patience and perseverance. I can't even imagine how that game can be beaten.

Good stuff man, congrats! I watched my cousin play some of it, and I don't have the patience for it.
