at least on PS4, completed Dark Souls than Bloodborne shows that to a certain extent DS1 is more engaging than Bloodborne. My guess is one of the reasons Bloodborne is less engaging to people is the frenetic combat which makes people drop it
To throw my hat in the discussion. For me personally 2 things make it not my favorite to pick up and play very often. 1) I suck at parrying and unfortunately so are a lot of people on the more casual side. Bloodbourne is more for the hardcore From Software fans. 2) The fucking Lantern System in this game. BY far for me the worse "bonfire" system in the catalog. In other Souls like you could tell where your progress is from what bonfire you are at, but not BB. Since large swaths of areas wrap around and use the same lanterns. I am constantly running around checking old boss rooms to check and see if I have done that boss or not.
 
The Darkness was always the natural progression of the world, the age of man. Gwyn trying to stop it was already talked about it badly in DS1 by quite a few characters. I mean even the whole Flame of Chaos is essentially a gigantic metaphor of the bad things that happen when you try to go against the natural order of things.
Lengthening something that has already passed its' expiration is already against the natural order of things. Aldia from DS2 is peak shitting against Gwyn.

The only thing I liked about lanterns wasn't the lanterns themselves but the gravestones dividing the general regions, something that DS3 did better in a menu, albeit at the cost of a neat looking asset. You also ended up with the central yharnam stone having too many lanterns tied to it for quick access. The bigger issue with the lanterns is how shit the BB loading screens are, which were absolutely horrid at launch and didn't even include item splashes.
43% of players defeated the Wet nurse, 60% of DS1 players defeated Gwyn
I don't know where you're getting that Gwyn number from. Everything I've seen lists getting the linking the fire ending at under 40%, regardless of platform. Using steam, let's list the completion stats for as many penultimate bosses as we can. DS1 has no equivalent, so let's use Seath, 4K, Nito, and BoC. DS2's cheevos are a mess and tell you nothing about penultimate bosses, but does give one for the single ending.
  • PTDE Seath: 24.2%
  • PTDE 4K: 23.9%
  • PTDE Nito: 23.8%
  • PTDE Bed of Chaos: 23.2%
  • Remaster Seath: 42.2%
  • Remaster 4K: 42.0%
  • Remaster Nito: 41.8%
  • Remaster Bed of Chaos: 41.4%
  • DS2 ending vanilla: 37.7%
  • SotFS ending: 34.0%
  • Twin Princes: 41.5%
  • Divine Dragon: 35.1%
  • Hoarah Loux: 39.5%
Those are all staggeringly similar and the trend did not start with BB. The only outliers are the now delisted PTDE with lord soul carriers sitting around 20%. The wet nurse fits in perfectly. I have no idea how you're supposed to glean "players are frustrated with contemporary From combat" from that.

From here:

I am doing it based on how many players defeated the 4 lords, which is 59%. You can also do the Fire ending + Dark ending percentage minus the 28% of people that were going for all achievements and you get around 60% of people that completed the game.

Bloodborne is even easier since you need to beat the Wet nurse to get to the ending choices as such we can know pretty easily that 42% of players got to the end of the game

Why do those numbers change when you hover over them?
The first are the numbers they collected using their data vs the official PSN numbers. I tend to rely on their numbers more because the PSN is generally unreliable. But even if you use the official numbers, 25% of Bloodborne players beat the Wet nurse vs 47%~ that beat Gwyn

Is this self reported?

The website numbers are based on the psn profiles that have been linked to their site which they take the trophy data from, which if you go to the main page says it is around 6 million. While the official numbers are from playstation players that won the trophy and have an online connection that allows their data to be added to the PSN database

Ok so it's an enthusiast website. That explains why the user figures are higher than the PSN reported ones. No idea if the PS numbers are bunk but they produce a result that's inline with the stats from steam, at least for any of the titles that aren't BB. BB is an outlier but that flies in the face of DS3, Sekiro, and ER, which should be reporting downward trends as well, per the premise of the argument, but are not by either metric that site uses.
So, did BB filter people in a way the other titles didn't?

What the wretched zanzibartnigger isn't telling you, is that Bloodborne was free on PSPluss at some point, so the stats are completely fucked by an influx of randos that played the monthly free game for 1 hour.

Fucking nigger's first post in the ER thread was the same zanzibartnigger macro being spammed on /v/. Faggot made an account just to spam his faggotry here too.

Cope, your precious Bloodborne sucks and you are just a loud minority online. Cry some more.
 
I just came from the /v/irgin eceleberino thread where I posted the same zanzibartnigger shit
Zanzibartnigger tourist from /v/ thought this was an argument in his threadshitting favor btw.
I don't use 4chan, people were posting the meme on the Synthetic man and Elden Ring threads. I am not shiting the thread, you are. I was having a discussion with another person before you came here seething because Bloodborne is not popular and that hurts your insecure ego.

Not seeing you even try to refute PSPlus fucking up your retarded cope about muh trophies neither.
Dark Souls remastered was also free on PSN Plus for a while plus the people that connect their accounts to the Achievements website tend to be more invested gamers so your casual arguments makes no sense. You are just profoundly dumb
 
>I am not a zanzibartnigger from the hacker known as 4chan
>I just happened to post the same zanzibartnigger shit, including the exact same retarded yt picrels being spammed on /v/

The fact that you are this ashamed of being a blatant 4chin /v/irgin tourist speaks volumes. :story:

And just FYI, no DSR was never free on PSPlus. Zanzibartnigger is making shit up again.:story:

Stop shiting the thread with your white knighting of Bloodborne. All I have to say is that you are a complete retard.
 
>stop embarrassing me and proving my zanzibartniggerdry wrong
Notice the threadshitter tourist from /v/ did not quote the part that pointed out he's lying. :story:
I am blocking you because you are retarded and you should euthanize yourself. You manage to be wrong about everything you typed and refuses to stop shiting the thread, you are clearly doing this for attention.

The data irrefutable shows that more people finished DS1 remastered than Bloodborne, both on general PSN statics as well as of those who linked their accounts on the achievement website. DS1 was discounted for PS plus subscribers multiple times up to 75% discounts.
