I don't know, rogue likes are all about cheap deaths. Rather enjoyed FTL, for all 800 cheap deaths it threw at me.

I tried my brother's copy last night, and I enjoyed the Souls series. I don't think this is my cup o' tea though. This game felt a little easy for some reason. The fifty billion blood vials and the health regain system is very forgiving. I don't mind the idea of an offensive melee based system, but the combat just got boring and the enemies are idiots.
Definitely made me long for some magic to spice things up. The axe is totally badass though.

You don't even have to trick him to fall off either. The second you get up to the rooftop, get right up to him while he's still close to his minigun at the edge. Then just melee him a few times till he falls off. Super easy

PVP is bullcrap. I invade a world and the hunter I'm chasing has a co-op partner. Most I've been fighting have co-op partners and they keep interrupting our duels. It's very unsporting.
As someone who has played every Souls title quite thoroughly, I think Bloodborne is definitely From's magnum opus. It's amazing. Truly. It's great if you love a genuine challenge and is even better if you love Souls games. Also, it's atmosphere and environment? Stunning.
It lands on my top ten all-time list with utter ease.
It's not a game that's for everyone, particularly due to From's games being notoriously difficult. However, you can learn and you will get better as you play. No game feels more rewarding when overcoming bosses.
Your complaint is that you wander around (so movement, basically), "kill things", boss fights are there, and leveling?
I don't understand. These complaints seem desperate and completely lacking and bear no reasonable criticisms. These are features in nearly every game ever. Seriously, boss fights? Killing? Come on now.
Also, this game plays a lot like a Souls game (Except everything is better somehow). Destiny came well after those titles. The comparison is completely off.
I just got this game and despite being terrible at it, and never having played a Souls game before, and not really knowing what the hell I'm doing, I'm having fun.

Have you killed Vicar Amelia yet? If so, head back to the cathedral ward, go to the left exit heading out, go up the steps where you use that 10k thing you buy to open the gate, then turn right thru the two giants in that rotunda, you'll see a door which requires a codeword (you get it from the Vicar Amelia boss area). This will lead you to the forbidden forest.
I got the platinum trophy for it and I think I'm done with the game for a while. Hell, I could have gotten the Platinum trophy over a week ago but the Chalice Dungeons completely turned me off the game. Actually could have gotten it a couple weeks ago but I took a break after beating it.
It's not even about the dungeons being so boring looking either (though that's a factor), it was about having to do others ones just so I could get material. The Red Jelly really pissed me off. As did having to grind out ritual blood 5 after getting the Red Jelly.
Other than that the game was good. NGplus is easy as shit. New Game was hard via being different than Souls.
I only got invaded 3 times in my playthroughs. Won all three even though I sucked at Dark Souls pvp really badly. Only summoned twice. The first time at Vicar Amelia because I was so lost, and the second time I summoned on the second last boss in New Game Plus because I got invaded and he came like 5 minutes after I won and reached the end of the "level"
So, pvp is a bust. And it's not like I didn't try to summon either. Especially in the Chalice Dungeons, but it just didn't happen.
Basically, if you want to keep your enjoyment of the game up, don't do the Chalice Dungeons. They're a huge chore, the grinding after getting a chalice for materials blows, and the bosses are really cheap. Almost "the Hunter in the Church" level of cheap. Plus Defiled cuts your life in half which isn't as bad as it sounds, but still gay.
