I was really enjoying Bloodborne and then…

It got even better. My favorite part of Dark Souls was the interconnectedness of the first game. I love all the shortcuts and everything. Bloodborne had some good shortcuts that I had discovered early on, but nothing yet that really hit me like Dark Souls 1 did. Then I got to the Forbidden Woods. The ladders in the caves leading all the way back to Iosefka’s Clinic, and the elevator leading back to the first lamp in the Forbidden Woods. The ladders in particular back to the beginning of the game gave me serious elevator from Undead Parish back to Firelink Shrine vibes.
