Bloodborne is a 3rd person action RPG made by FromSoftware, the developers of Dark Souls. You play as a hunter, tasked with traversing a vast gothic landscape to kill blood-crazed beasts. As your hunt continues, the true eldritch horrors of Yharnam start to unfold...
Known for its challenging combat and iconic atmosphere, Bloodborne remains a cult classic, loved over 10 years later. It's my favorite game!
I truly think that Bloodborne is a masterpiece. It's one of those games where I immediately wanted to know more about its world and its lore. The set pieces are beautiful, the enemy designs are cool, and oh my god the score - one of the best soundtracks ever made. It's all something really special.
I HIGHLY recommend this game if you're a fan of Dark Souls, or just of eldritch horror in general. Its slow reveal is seriously so well done. There can be a steep learning curve, but in my opinion it's 100% worth it. Unfortunately, it can only be played on one platform - PS4 - but hopefully at some point it'll be ported to PC.

Deep Sea
"This rune means 'Deep Sea' and grants augmented resistance. Great volumes of water serve as a bulwark guarding sleep, and an augur of the eldritch Truth. Overcome this hindrance, and seek what is yours."
The Sea is quiet and dark, soothing in its gentle lull. The safety of the sea protects you as your body shakes and head splits in two. The sea awaits your return as you venture off, ready to be there for you whether you return with warmth in your smile, fire in your eyes, or blood on your hands.
Do not stray from your Sea for too long, you need them, as they do you.
