Oh, Bloodborne. You are really something out of the ordinary, but also incredibly demanding and unforgiving. Having just finished DS3 and returning to the world of the hunters it's very obvious Bloodborne demands a more risky and aggressive playstyle and that you have to rely on your gun as a pre-emptive shield or stun gun. And the blood bullets are there for a reason.

I thought I would get the option of wether I wanted to start a NG+ after the final boss, but no. So take note if you've not completed the DLC or other areas.
