Well, it must be good, considering the fact that I didn't get much sleep because my roommate kept cursing at the game.
Anyway, anyone playing yet? I'm not yet. I want to finish my DeS->DS->DS2 playthrough before I consider starting, but it is kinda interesting to look at things for it. Overall, I'm not too keen on them taking a part of their design philosophy for DS2 - reducing passivity by making shields with no chip damage heavy and strength requiring to a larger degree - and turning it up to 11. But that's fine. I'll still play through it, though I doubt I'll replay it if I dislike that enough.
Anyway, I invite you to compare the "first" boss from Bloodborne to the "first"(post tutorial) bosses from DeS, DS and DS2. Why? Because I was watching a video of a friend's first Cleric Beast kill and felt like watching the other vids too as a comparison. The Bloodborne vid is in fact a friend of mine playing, the rest are random things I grabbed off of Youtube.
Also, if you think the Taurus Demon vid was cheese, you should have been there for my first ever kill. I just kept fireballing him and climbing halfway down the ladder when he'd jump up, forcing him to jump down for a repeat after I climbed back up.
