ok so i'm currently playing Bloodborne on my ps4, and i am insane about the story. i'm really drowning in it's lore. these comics. Vol.1 and Vol.2 (that i'm currently reading) have the same atmosphere and some same characters, but i thought it would actually go deeper in the story of many characters like Gascoigne, Micolash and Vicar Amelia and others. let's hope it will happen in the upcoming issues.

Ok liked it but gonna read rest of it after my University crisis.

Hadn't realized this was based on a video game when I picked it up. The art was good, but I got nothing from the story.

Never played the video game but of what I've seen the artwork gameplay interested me. Decent story and art here but nothing amazing. Kinda reminded me of a Victorian era Witcher with lovecraftian themes/world.

I'm Sorry, What?: The Graphic Novel

I finished playing Bloodborne on PS4 in May 2021.This is a great comic book series, based on Bloodborne, the difficult Victorian game by Hidetaka Miyazaki. I don’t think it’s required to have played the game before you read this comic series, but it definitely helps, as some of the quotes are taken out of the game, and the experience of reading this comic series will be better if you’ve played the game.In this comic book, you are The Nameless Hunter. Hunters hunt beasts. Beasts used to be human

I wasn't sure what to expect from this going in, and I definitely wasn't expecting to love it nearly as much as I ended up loving it. The art is gorgeous, and I'd honestly recommend it for that alone if you're a fan of Bloodborne and/or great horror art. But the story and narrative hold up really well, too. In my opinion, it captures the vibe and atmosphere of Bloodborne perfectly.I really liked the protagonist and their internal monologue throughout the story. You learn very little about them (...

I, like most readers of Bloodborne, started the game and became instantly entranced in the lore. What are hunters? What is this Church? Who is Paleblood? This first volume of incredible images only made me hungrier. I wish the graphic novels were twice as long! Having not gone further than Father Casoigne yet in the game, much of this information is brand new to me— and oh, so exciting. Starting the second immediately. Horror and apocalypse fans: pick it up.

Not quite what I was expecting, but a very fun, gruesome short read with an interesting set up for the next volume. Art is amazing for what the source material is, too.

I am still just as confused about this story as the video game leaves me. I was hoping this would help make sense of it all, but so far nothing. The art was really good though.I’ll continue in hopes it starts to really explain things.

More a ☆☆☆ - ☆☆☆ 1/2 read, having never played the videogame who inspired this grimdark fantasy comic-book I felt sometimes like I started watching a movie after missing the first half of it, but I just loved the creepy nightmarish storyline and the suggestive artworks of this Bloodborne adaption.The you're dead 4th wall breaking panel was a real blast and a genuine jump-scare like I've never read in comics totally rised my final vote to full 4 stars.Not bad at all for a videogame-franchise base...

Man, very underwhelming. I gave this a three-star rating but it's actually more a rounded-up 2,5 stars.I've waited a really long time for this comic and it's not that great. Not terrible either, just very mediocre. Where I had hoped the writer would've dared to step out of the comfort zone of an established setting, what we actually get is a literal rehash of locations from the Bloodborne video game. With the exception of one very awesome splash page, we kinda saw it all before. There was a chan...

"The Death of Sleep" may not be a definitive companion graphic novel for the game, nor may accomplish capturing of its intense surreal environment, but overall just a light-weight appetizer for the fans seeking more of Bloodborne universe. I will sympathize and agree with those who may be disgusted to have truly wide lore of their beloved RPG reduced to narrow confines of few pages, and doing less than perfect job about it. Art work and story, as well as dialogues, are passable on their own, but...

Bloodborne is my favorite video game of all time, so I’m always down for more material I can get my hands on. I wasn’t expecting it to be this fun! This comic tells a story of a hunter tasked with taking a Paleblood child out of Yharnam with the ultimate goal of using them to transcend the hunt entirely. Along the way, the two develop a bond as they explore the outer rims of Yharnam, the forbidden woods, and the fishing hamlet of the Old Hunter’s DLC. The artwork is great, the writing is decent

3.5Bloodborne is one of my favorite games of all time, and I was hoping that these graphic novels based off of the game would unveil some more lore and backstory for the game. But the plot in this made NO sense. Maybe it will as I read more 🤷🏽‍♀️

A Hunter wanders the city of Yharnam, told repeatedly that Hunters must hunts. But what if they have another cause to fight for? What if there's something else that the Hunter can do to escape the nightmare? The answers lie far beyond Yharnam's walls, away from the Hunter's Dream, in an old fishing village. All the Hunter has to do...is get there.To say I enjoyed this would be an understatement. These four issues are superbly done. The atmosphere that Kot creates feels distinctly Yharnam, and we...

My boyfriend and I read this together and it was a great time! He's finished Bloodborne and I'm too much of a wimp to play it by myself so it was cool to get a glimpse into the story without having things actually jump out and scare the crap out of me. The artwork is gorgeous and the atmosphere has a dark and melancholy vibe to it that I liked a lot. It's very fitting considering the source material. The plot is vague and mysterious in a way that made me want to continue on, though I could see o...

I feel today is an appropriate day to dive into this nightmarish world. I discovered the existence of this while researching some inspiration and references for an art project I'm working on (to do with Bloodborne,) and felt excited to pick this up, today of all days. Being a big fan of the game, the world, and the beautifully depicted horror within the nightmare and all that it revels in... I feel that after having read this, I am no richer for it. The atmosphere of which creates the world of B...

I am not a comic book reader, so maybe I just don’t get it. I love Bloodborne - it’s my favourite game, so I was excited to get more content in this world. I didn’t find there was a story here though - the art was great, but if someone were to ask me what this is about, I have no idea what I would say. It ends on a cliffhanger (I think?) and I don’t care to read the next instalment. Still, the art is nice & seeing some familiar characters was good too, so 2 stars.

It took me a solid 25 hours to read this. The opening chapter alone took me 13 attempts before I was able to defeat it. I raged quite a few times towards the end of the second issue in this volume, but kept coming back. I'm still pretty bitter about the countless amount of blood echoes I permanently lost but it was still worth it in the end. Can't wait to read the next volumes, then I'll attempt a New Read+.
