Surely there can't be a more sorry lot in all of gaming than Bloodborne fans. And I feel like I can say this with some confidence, given I am a Bloodborne fan, and nobody is more sorry than me.
Despite releasing in 2015 and remaining one of the most critically acclaimed video games of all-time, PlayStation treats Bloodborne like an unwanted stepchild that's forced to sleep in the washing machine and eat old socks.
In the last 10 years fans have dreamed of sequels, PC ports, even a basic 60fps upgrade for Bloodborne on PlayStation 5. None of this has happened, of course. But rather than give up on the dream, Bloodborne fans convince themselves that the next big gaming event is where they'll see what they've been waiting for. And Hollow Knight: Silksong fans thought they were hard-done by.
Over on the FromSoftware subreddit, fans were recently once again discussing whether they'd rather have a full-blown sequel or a remake/remaster. Personally, I'd go for both, because I am a very greedy boy.
"I just want confirmed news," the top comment reads. Which, let's be honest, sums up the feelings of Bloodborne fans around the world....
