I want to play Bloodborne because quite frankly it looks really cool. I'm told the game is going to be way too difficult for me. I usually play games on standard or easy difficulty. Should I even bother? Is this game even going to be playable to a noob like me?

Oh lol I totally misread that. 🤣

Of course you're correct: persistence is key and much more important than consistency (as in: perfectly nail every dodge, which is my problem).

Like many others already said: Probably the best take is to "understand" that dying is not failure but part of the progression system. But instead of grinding experience points to progress your character (which is totally possible in dark souls) you grind real experience by repeating difficult parts over and over again and progress as a player.

It's actually extremely clever game design.
