First Playthrough, am I going to miss major story bits because of this?

I'm playing through the game for the first time, and I've accidentally killed two NPCs: the thing in the Cathedral Ward and the woman under Hypogaeon Gaol. Will these cut me out of major story beats later in the game? Is it worth restarting for this?

For context, I've beaten Father Gasciogne, Blood-Starved Beast, Darkbeast Paarl, Vicar Amelia and have just defeated Witch of Hemwick. I'm level 54 (overlevelled, I know). It's taken me a decent number of hours to get this point, but I know I'd get back much quicker on a new file due to understanding the game now (won't spend hours stuck in central Yharnam, and I've killed the last two bosses first try as opposed to 20th), and the fact that I probably won't up spending hours going through chalice dungeons before realising they aren't yet mandatory to progress

That said, I've been enjoying this game so much that I'll very likely be playing the DLC at some point (though maybe not immediately after). Can that be played on an existing save, or will I want to start a new one anyway for that?

Found eileen the crow again !

I had messed up eileen's quest as I attacked her when i first encountered her, I was soo mad after looking up she was the best npc. Also i was not able to cheese him, So i left her there. But now after killing one reborn I went to grand cathedral and Eileen was there !! It was a great fight and I defeated her and got the crow hunter badge and weapons and gear. Mostly people were telling me to restart the game to get the badge but it worked out in the end !

Have I made a mistake by focusing one one weapon?

So, just realised I haven't really branched out at all. I got used to the saw cleaver and out of fear of wasting blood gems I haven't really used anything else. I'm in forbidden woods now and curious, have I hamstrung myself?

Old Hunters or ER?

On my second run of BB as it put me in NG+ without asking...

Second run is fun but here is the question...should I spend money to get the DLC or go over to Elden Ring which I am about 1/3rd of the way through? The reason I ask is because money is a little tight right now. Also, surely I cannot play one game all the time? Does anyone do that?

As a wildcard, I also have NieR Automata

Are there any secret dialogues or things to do in bloodborne

I finished bloodborne a few times and got the platinum. Right now it’s really dull and I don’t have any motivation to play it anymore. Is there anything you guys could recommend for me to do. Too broke rn to get ds3 or Elden ring so bloodborne is all I got.

Man, I'm tired of this exclusivity thing

I've played and completed a dozen of times all Fromsoft games, got all trophies on dark souls whole trilogy, classic demon's souls, sekiro, ER and I never have been able to play any moment of Bloodborne. Back then my only console was a PS3 and now I'm playing on PC and is really frustrating to be a fan of the series and have this game out of sight. I know I would acquire a PS4 but I cannot justify to myself spend money on a console just to play one specific game and never touch it again. I think this is a reality for most PC Fromsoft fans.

Need help with an achievement

So when first got the game about 8 months ago I was enjoying it and started working on platinuming the game. I've gotten every trophy except the last 3 different endings and the Yharnam, Pthumerian Queen one. Im waiting untill I beat that one untill I do the different endings. The only problem is the only guides I've found on how to even start the fight with her is that I have to do a bunch of bosses in a chalice dungeon until I get to her and can beat her. The first boss took me about 5 days to beat and I lost all my motivation and then the second boss pissed me off so much I just stopped trying and lost interest in even fighting it so I haven't touched the game in 8 months. I love the game but this trophy ruined it for me. Is there any other way without doing a bunch of layers in a chalice dungeon to fight her? Or is that the only way

I feel I ruined my GF’s first experience

So my GF is starting her journey into Bloodborne. The initial idea was I was going to play a game alongside her to help her out, I would relearn areas so I could give her tips, but also she could always summon me in for help. It was super slow going at first because in the beginning she has to be on her own no matter what, but it was so much fun watching her learn the game. I talked her through how to get her first Madman’s Knowledge and I was so excited that she could summon me into the game! I talked her through/led her to the Hunter’s set and getting the music box. We killed the Cleric Beast and Gascoigne, but the majority of those boss fights was me taking aggression off her so she could do damage but me also helping deal damage which was exponentially more than hers. So while she’s now in Cathedral ward, I’m feeling the most bad with her fight with Gascoigne being a first try accomplishment with me, whereas I struggled with him, and had to adapt to Bloodborne’s playstyle. While we have now both learned and from now on she’s going to play on her own and when she’s really stuck she’ll summon me, I still feel horrible that I robbed her of such an important learning moment. It was such an exciting moment when after dying just being bored and reading the music box description and seeing that it belonged to Gascoigne, but she didn’t get that struggle.

This is a masterpiece

I'm so glad I stumbled upon FS games. Started with Sekiro and Elden Ring. Now this. I just love how beautiful this game is. The eerie and mysterious environment. The characters with weird ass behaviours and ofc the monsters and aliens in this game.

I wonder how beautiful this would even be if it were released few yrs back with newer graphics and newer game engine. This is from 2015 y'all and look how beautiful this is 😭

Now I'm seeing weird ass things too. Baby crying too. Gosh why is this game so fricking beautiful

"Art of Bloodborne" artbook impossible to find?

Hello everyone, I was looking for the "Art of Bloodborne" artbook online, I mean one with high quality images. I remember distinctly that around 3 years ago Internet Archive had a full scan of the artbook with extremely high-quality images, I'm sure of it, but its gone apparently. All I could find now were a few sites with extremely low quality scans. Do any of you know where its still up or is it truly nowhere online? Do any of you have it on digital, maybe?

All Weapons Trophy Glitch

UPDATE: Update: sold almost all my weapons and then started rebuying them and as soon as I bought Tonitrus(I had it already so it wasnt missing or something), it popped. LFGGGG

HOPEFULLY THIS HELPS SOMEONE WHO WILL FACE THE ISSUE IN THE FUTURE

I checked, I have them all. So far, I have seen the Buying the first 3 weapons again solution but didn’t work. And getting torch in NG+ solution which I am yet to try. Are there any other solutions?
