20k starting to really take off. Quality has been here for years as well. Glad to see more people find you. Easily my favourite gaming channel on RUclips and I’m a when I can be arsed platinum getter.
I don't get how he dies THAT many times and then doesnt decide to go explore the hunters dream one time out of 100. Like the game is essentially punishing you for having tunnel vision, I'm glad you saw it that way and laughed it off.
Bloodborne and God of War are the two recent games that I feel genuinely bad playing without music. I listened to Bloodborne's soundtrack yesterday, epic stuff.
@@AdamMcDermott what makes your decision strange is the fact that you only hear the soundtrack during the boss fights and certain sections but hey, to each to its own!
@@franlovelsimic8421 I don't quite understand you, buddy. I turned off the soundtrack for better editing control and to avoid potential copyright infringement in the video.
@@AdamMcDermott you could have just done some voice over for those parts or something. Not worth depriving yourself of one of the game's best features 😔
This is still the only game I've ever actually sat down and decided to platinum. Ever since I came across this series , this is the episode I've been waiting for!
This series is almost like im watching a TV show, because, your so entertaining and the way you do everything, makes it feel so much more like a literal TV show
Man. I really really love how chill you are. Everybody seems to be angry all the time now. But you are an oasis of relaxation. Thanks for that mate. :)
Came back to watch this, I swear man.... I can come back to these videos after a bit of time and watch it again like it was my first time watching it lol. Just keep up the work my man 💪
This is the only game I ever got a platinum. I don't even try to get trophies I just loved the game so much and played it so much it ended up happening without a conscious effort on my part.
Thats a good way to earn a platinum. Im playing it on my own now. Im fighting paarl atm. Very tough game with an insane music and setting. Design is amazing. Lovely games! Never played before soulslike
I'm so happy to see one of my favorite content creators cover my hands-down favorite game! I would highly reccomend the dlc, too. It's even better than the main game in my opinion, and the new weapons are a ton of fun.
Man it’s sad that you played the game without any music. Regular gameplay doesn’t have any music anyway, but thethe bossfights do and they make them feel more epic :(
Absolutely love your channel. Was genuinely buzzing to see you were covering this game and after trying it and putting it down around 7 times (literally, no ecaggeration) and then leaving it alone deciding it wasn't for me. Seeing you play this inspired me to get through it. I managed to get the Platinum on a single playthrough (using uploads for the endings) then. Then did a new game plus playthrough. I've since done the DLC, meaning starting the game from scratch again leading to just having finished the 3rd playthrough, this time in full for 100% completion and about to plunge into another NG+ playthrough. I absolutely adore the game. The art style, the gameplay, the learning curve in combat, the lore. I genuinely can't get enough of it. I don't think I would've ever gone for it if it hadn't been for this video. Your style of coverage is brilliant and I've followed the page for a while now. Superb content. Definitely quality stuff that we do see of you. Great channel.
Congratulations on the platinum. Fair play to you for going back to it. I'm honoured my video encouraged you to revisit it. Cheers. Thank you for saying such kind words.
@@AdamMcDermott Appreciate the reply, I’m soooo happy you did this game, back at the start of October when you announced it I was so hyped. It’s one of my favourite games and you’re one of my favourite RUclipsrs, perfect combo, keep up the great work
Just pausing to say that it's not at all helpful when people bang on about the difficulty of Soulsborne games. It leads to frustrating things like Adam experience with the werewolf at the start, and many many players experiences with Dark Souls and the respawning skeletons
Same, when I first started Dark Souls Remastered I chose thief as starting class and after seeing how little damage I did to every enemy with the bandit knife, I just assumed this was part of the difficulty rather than me choosing a bad weapon. I beat the trilogy since then, and people should really stop praising Dark Souls' difficulty and praise its mechanics instead.
I kind of agree but part of the issue with the werewolf at the start was that he went straight back to gravestone rather than looking around first not entirely the games fault
agreed! The worst part of people over-exaggerating the difficulty is it puts people off of the games that would likely enjoy it, because people make them sound impossible
@@user-tv7hn7gm8b they aren't blaming the game, they are blaming people who make souls games out to be impossible. Adam likely had it in his head that bloodborne is meant to be so difficult, so there were no flags raised when he had no weapon and was doing shit damage, when really that should tell you that you missed something. Hopefully I explained that ok lol
@@haydeng3316 Still on the player, ive been experienced with the souls games when i first played it and the pathetic damage and the fact i was fighting with my bare fists were a huge red flag that something was wrong, same thing happened with my friends whos first entry to the soulsbourne series was bloodbourne. The solution isnt for the game to handhold
I am still on my very first play through of BB, it's also my first Souls game ever. I am doing the DLC now. I have never had a desire to chase a platinum until this game. I was rooting for you, and your genuine delight at accomplishment, was awesome to see. Great video sir.
I think this is one of my favorite Bloodborne videos I’ve ever watched, this aswell as the old hunters dlc video combined. I love seeing the journey this man has and his whole demeanor throughout. What a legend. Watching this video feels like playing it for the first time again. Great video man! :)
@@AdamMcDermott Thank you so much for undertaking such a difficult looking platinum and not giving up. I feel like these videos are peak examples of seeing somebody overcome overwhelming odds and come out the other end feeling achieved. I love how unlike other youtubers where they usually have a giant scream whenever they FINALLY beat a boss, you react how I feel most of us would. Being brought nearly to tears and finally letting out a sigh of relief, and the most wholesome and relateable “Yes…….i did it.” Again tysm!
Been meaning to play to Souls games for so long, glad to see an absolute legend tackling one. Always happy to see a new Adam McDermott video Milk toast
Between Bloodborne being a favorite on PS4, being my proudest platinum, and Platinum Journey being a favorite here on YT, needless to say I'm really stoked for this episode. Cheers and Happy Halloween.
I had more problem with Amygdala after getting past the Watchdog pretty easily... but that Amygdala fight took me over a year of coming back to the game every month to try again.
@@AdamMcDermott Please play the DLC with music. It only plays it in boss fight and muting that in you footage Is really easy. It really is a shame, because especially the DLC has amazing boss soundtracks.
@@OZEEtube I'll be doing the same and muting the music for the DLC. Want the sound effects for the final video. Although, I will do a new game plus with the music on much like the base game.
It was really fun that you included your learning curve at the beginning! Though in contrast seeing almost nothing else of the game felt weird. Watchdog of the Old Lords was also my hardest boss. 6 hours. And I didn't know that the Moon Prescence had a Numbing Mist effect. That makes the 1hp attack a bit more threatening. Congrats on the Platinum!
Thanks. I cut out a lot of the rest of the main game because the video would only get repetitive showing boss after boss after boss. Wanted to be selective, video still ended up being huge. Numbing mist certainly caught me off guard, haha. Cheers!
Just watched you for the first time today with this Bloodborne platinum journey. That was very enjoyable, thank you. Man I love this game! And I gotta tell you mate, if you enjoyed Bloodborne, there's no chance you're not gonna love Sekiro!! Dig in, you're in for an amazing treat...
Your videos never fail to put a smile on my face; exploring Yharnam might be my favourite moment of the entire console generation so to finally get a video of yours dedicated to it is a dream come true
For someone who covers “brilliant games” he hasn’t covered the most brilliant of them all, my name is mayo. Like, cmon, we all know it’s the greatest game of all time.
I've been counting down the days since you platinumed this to see this episode... all 36 of them, yes I counted. I love your channel, you have inspired me to platinum so many games myself. Keep up the amazing work adam.
Man, I gotta say: Your channel is AMAZING. The quality of your videos is fantastic and I really appreciate your hard work both in game and in the quality of your editing and script writing. Thanks man, really underrated channel. I’ve been dying to play this game and I think I’m going to try it as my first “soulsborne” game. Sending support from México.
Thank you for the kind words. A lot of effort goes into these episodes so when someone compliments them, it is a great feeling. Sending support from Ireland.
Congratulations Adam. Huge fan of yours and getting this platinum is a great achievement. It was a tough one for me as this was my first souls like game and had no idea what I was letting myself in for. Luckily its a rewarding game that makes you want to follow through to the end. Good work as always and good luck with Metal Gear Solid 2, I have to try that at some point.
I know likely hundreds of comments have said it, but it truely is a shame you didn’t play with music on. The emotional impact of the fights are elevated to unimaginable levels
Adam McDermott at least if you do a vid on the dlc, please have music on for your own sake. I think me and every other fan of the game would be fine with you just muting the game audio and playing something else over it
@@Herr_Gamer Eh, then the game sound effects would be muted and I would rather sacrifice the music. Can always listen to the soundtrack in my own time or enjoy the music in new game plus :)
It's been a while, Adam...but well worth the wait! Loved this game, so beautiful! I felt your frustration at times, having been there myself...congrats on the Platinum! Guiness well reserves, my friend, cheers!
This video had me howling with laughter. Absolute class piece of content. Ive watched many a bloodborne video (yet to play through myself yet) and this is the first one i was so invested in hoping you succeeded
Legend! Well done with this one mate! Taken me two years to reach the final boss haha to be fair though, I didn't play it for months and months but came back to it recently. Still loving your channel, didn't think it would be my thing, but it's fun to watch the ups and downs! Keep up the great work mate :)
This was one of your best platinum journeys mate! Cannot wait for MGS 2, this was so good that it made me want to get the game, cannot wait to suffer lol
Congrats Bud! I friend of mine bugged me until I finally gave in and played this and let me tell you. WHAT an experience. The kicker was once I achieved the plat my friend bought me the dlc. Which was incredible as well. Nice to see you delv into this as well . Cheers 🍻
@@AdamMcDermott Indeed. Well if you ever get the itch I would highly recommend the dlc. That being, I'm not a huge soulsbourne fan but I did not regret doing this 100% in the slightest. Cheers from Canada 🙂
Fantastic video and fantastic series, every video from platinum journey is better than the last. Every one is fantastic, well edited and very entertaining. In my opinion the best series on youtube, pure entertainment and effort in each video. Congratulations on 23k subscribers, you deserve every bit of it !!
Glad to see you're still pumping out these fantastic videos, Adam. I'm very happy to see your channel growing and getting the recognition it so very much deserves.
I love seeing someone experiencing Bloodborne for the first time, it such a joy. I was wondering if you have ever considered playing the DLC, thats were (in my opinion) the game truly shines. The bosses overall are considered way harder & the new weapons in the DLC are just phenomenal. I highly recommend playing it ;)
Thank you. I'm delighted you enjoyed this so much. Haha, saw your updated comment. I prefer the episode covering the DLC. It is a bit slower and gives each boss proper attention as well as admiring the world.
I did not consider to buy this game because there was somenthing in me that really wasnt attracted to, but man seeing the joy you had while playing it convinced me to buy it. I love your videos a lot, greetings from Mexico!
Haven’t played bloodborne yet. I have watched lots of bloodborne videos. This vid has just made me so excited to get stuck in to it! Great video as always Adam 👍🏻
I am a bit late on this but man what an amazing episode. Hats of to you Adam. That start was hilarious... its one of the strengths that the game doesn't hold your hand but as a starter it can get really confusing. And Watchdog of the Old Lords still give me nightmares! Thanks Adam for the quality videos.
Love your videos Adam. I started this a while back but gave up cos of the punishing learning curve and how brutal the game is. Watching this makes me want to go back to it as I do like a challenge. Keep up the good work :)
I understand giving up. If the camera wasn't rolling I probably would have given up too. On the positive note, if I can beat it, I'm sure you can too. Cheers. Happy to hear you enjoy my videos.
Funny thing, after watching the video it made me want to go back and platinum it also. I actually got it yesterday. What a great game and one of my favorite games to platinum. Keep up the great work, and I can’t wait to see what other games are in store for your platinum journey.
This brings back so many memories for me - both frustration and victory. Those first few minutes, just looking for a weapon...and the dungeon fatigue is real. I didn't plan to platinum Bloodborne but by the time I got to the end (for the first time) I was so into it I just wanted to keep going. I wound up getting the platinum on my third run. Still my favorite of all of the "souls-like" games for its mood and atmosphere.
I have never got platinum on any game, but I've always wanted to. Your dedication is inspiring, and your good nature makes it seem like it comes easy! You deserve so many more subscribers
Great video Adam, I've been looking forward to this one, shame about no music it adds quite a lot to the experience, completely understandable though. Keep up the good work!
Man, I envy you having your first exposure to Bloodborne. I've played it over so many times and enjoyed it, but that first time experiencing it from start to finish the first time can never be repeated!
Its funny, so many completionist format youtubers these days but stumbling across this one was a gem of a find! 8 prefer the rawness of Adams. I don't think I've watched so many back to back videos!
Total playtime: 40 hours. Next episode: Metal Gear Solid 2.
Next week will be the 20K Q&A.
Also, yes. I will indeed play the DLC, The Old Hunters.
the dream episode you wanted to do, good to see it's happening i can't wait
Will you be trying to complete it in one go like mgs3 or is that even possible
Good morning Adam time to watch high quality content straight out of my bed. There's no better way to start the day
MGS 2 that will be wild holy moly. Much harder then Bloodborne. :D
20k starting to really take off. Quality has been here for years as well. Glad to see more people find you. Easily my favourite gaming channel on RUclips and I’m a when I can be arsed platinum getter.
Wow I can’t believe this men spend the beginning of the game running around without a weapon I feel so bad for you
Haha, I was absolutely clueless.
The same thing happened to me.
I don't get how he dies THAT many times and then doesnt decide to go explore the hunters dream one time out of 100.
Like the game is essentially punishing you for having tunnel vision, I'm glad you saw it that way and laughed it off.
@@mr.voidroy6869 I always heard about Bloodborne being really tough so just assumed this is the game. So wrong. Like you said, complete tunnel vision.
I was stuck for one YEAR on the first monster where you "supposed" to die so you can pick your weapon. I had no idea wtf i should do.
I couldn't imagine playing Bloodborne without music
Bloodborne and God of War are the two recent games that I feel genuinely bad playing without music. I listened to Bloodborne's soundtrack yesterday, epic stuff.

Great game for your first platinum.
It was my 12th plat, but the first one I had decided to go for in years and it was such an amazing experience finally getting it.
Darksouls 3 was my first platinum
Bloodborne is a very easy game to platinum due to the total amonut of trophies being very low.
I haven't platinumed it yet because I just refuse to do the chalice dungeons, such a huge flaw in an otherwise brilliant game.
it's so funny you missed the weapons and trying to kill the first beast LOL. BTW congrats on 20K subs
Yeah I was laughing my ass off LUL
he didnt even TRY to explore the dream
I was saying that the whole time LMAO
This guy deserves more subscribers to be honest. I love all of his videos.
I dix the same on my first playthrough, i Can je very stubborn !
It's his playthrough, it's his playthrough, not mine, not mine. *doing it wrong, doing it wrong* SHUSH ME.
My brain aswell hahah
Me after seeing him kill Eileen 😂
I've been watching your Elvis videos for years; didn't expect to see you here, haha.
Me: :(
Adam: hi there and welcome to platinum journey!
Me: :)
Definitely one of my favorite RUclipsrs, keep it up man!
I'm honoured to be one of your favourites.
Agreed! Always love to see another one of those Platinum Journeys
@@MCoconut97 couldn’t agree more buddy I love seeing another platinum journey notification on RUclips 👍
THIS WAS MY FIRST EVER PLATINUM
it makes me happy to see other people bloodborne platinum experience
Pretty great first platinum!
Bloodborne is probably my favorite platinum I have 17 so that’s saying something
Its a pretty easy platinum imo. I did it in one playthrough pretty much.
Same here!
Same
This series is almost like im watching a TV show, because, your so entertaining and the way you do everything, makes it feel so much more like a literal TV show
3:47
Wait until you hear the music for the first dlc boss in his second phase. Epic af.
Gehrman's music is my personal favorite.
Man. I really really love how chill you are. Everybody seems to be angry all the time now. But you are an oasis of relaxation. Thanks for that mate. :)
Thanks. Playing games is largely a good time for me. Well, unless I'm getting crushed by bosses, haha.
Its 2 am in california. i was just about to sleep untill i got this notification. thank you adam.
me too haha
Came back to watch this, I swear man.... I can come back to these videos after a bit of time and watch it again like it was my first time watching it lol. Just keep up the work my man 💪
What a wonderful compliment. Thank you.
Makes me so happy that people rewatch my videos.
This really made me want to replay Bloodborne. Still game of the generation, as far as I'm concerned. Hope it'll run at 60fps on PS5.
Sadly not it’s locked on 30fps ;(
Well, I've got some bad news to tell you........
Bloodborne is one of my favourite games ever so glad to see u platinum it!
U have platinumed quite a lot of games
it made me so sad when you killed Eileen :(
and missed the FIRST WEAPONS

@@lt.e I hope you enjoy it as much as I did. It's a one of a kind game in my mind and new players keep it alive.
@@gjg5789 already done. After all i just need the last weapons and the alternative ending. Amazing game!
I got this plat in a week, it's just sooo good and addicting. 3 different playthroughs too, no shortcuts.
Wow, fair play to you. Great when a game gets its hooks into you.
I finished my first playthrough yesterday and immediately started new game plus. This is one of the best games I’ve ever played.
My favorite game ever. I'm so happy when I see someone new to it!
i can already tell this is gonna be a great episode, also congrats on 20k more than deserved
Thank you very much!

Congratulations Adam. Huge fan of yours and getting this platinum is a great achievement. It was a tough one for me as this was my first souls like game and had no idea what I was letting myself in for. Luckily its a rewarding game that makes you want to follow through to the end. Good work as always and good luck with Metal Gear Solid 2, I have to try that at some point.
Thanks. Yeah, Bloodborne is a satisfying challenge.
MGS2 is a big one, but such a great game.
I came across your channel for the first time via this video, and me and my girlfriend are already loving your channel! Keep it up!!
I'm happy to hear that. Welcome to the channel :)
I know likely hundreds of comments have said it, but it truely is a shame you didn’t play with music on. The emotional impact of the fights are elevated to unimaginable levels
Yeah, one of the downsides of making a video about it.
Adam McDermott at least if you do a vid on the dlc, please have music on for your own sake. I think me and every other fan of the game would be fine with you just muting the game audio and playing something else over it
@@Herr_Gamer Eh, then the game sound effects would be muted and I would rather sacrifice the music. Can always listen to the soundtrack in my own time or enjoy the music in new game plus :)
It's been a while, Adam...but well worth the wait! Loved this game, so beautiful! I felt your frustration at times, having been there myself...congrats on the Platinum! Guiness well reserves, my friend, cheers!
Happy to hear it was worth the wait. Cheers!
The waiting is finally over, can't wait to watch this masterpiece of a video
this is amazing! so rare to see someone have a legit fresh start in the soulsborne series.
Completely clueless. Was definitely shaking my head at all the mistakes watching back the footage after finishing the game.
This video had me howling with laughter. Absolute class piece of content. Ive watched many a bloodborne video (yet to play through myself yet) and this is the first one i was so invested in hoping you succeeded
Thank you for saying such kind words. I'm delighted to hear you enjoyed the video so much.
I really enjoy the vibe you bring to these videos. Chilled, positive, friendly, exactly what gaming needs.
Thank you for saying such kind words. Much appreciated.
Legend! Well done with this one mate! Taken me two years to reach the final boss haha to be fair though, I didn't play it for months and months but came back to it recently. Still loving your channel, didn't think it would be my thing, but it's fun to watch the ups and downs! Keep up the great work mate :)
Best of luck with the final boss.
That is a nice compliment that you initially didn't think my videos would be your thing but are enjoying them.
This was one of your best platinum journeys mate! Cannot wait for MGS 2, this was so good that it made me want to get the game, cannot wait to suffer lol
I'm delighted to hear you think this is one of the best episodes :)
Adam McDermott
Another platinum journey in the bag and you survived the hunt nice going Adam.
Cheers, buddy!
@@AdamMcDermott You're welcome. Better you than me I'd say with this game.
Congrats Bud! I friend of mine bugged me until I finally gave in and played this and let me tell you. WHAT an experience. The kicker was once I achieved the plat my friend bought me the dlc. Which was incredible as well. Nice to see you delv into this as well . Cheers 🍻
You have a good friend :)
@@AdamMcDermott Indeed. Well if you ever get the itch I would highly recommend the dlc. That being, I'm not a huge soulsbourne fan but I did not regret doing this 100% in the slightest. Cheers from Canada 🙂
@@joescmoe4784 I will indeed get around to the DLC at some point. Cheers from Ireland.
Fantastic video and fantastic series, every video from platinum journey is better than the last. Every one is fantastic, well edited and very entertaining. In my opinion the best series on youtube, pure entertainment and effort in each video.
Congratulations on 23k subscribers, you deserve every bit of it !!
I'm honoured you think my series is the best on RUclips. Huge compliment. Thank you.
Very nice Platinum Journey again, congrats!
Thank you for this video!
You are more than welcome, buddy.
Woah Bloodborne Platinum Journey released on Halloween? What a pleasant surprise! Keep up the great work Adam!
Bloodborne and Halloween seemed like a perfect match :)
Glad to see you're still pumping out these fantastic videos, Adam. I'm very happy to see your channel growing and getting the recognition it so very much deserves.
Cheers. That is very nice of you to say.
I love seeing someone experiencing Bloodborne for the first time, it such a joy.
I was wondering if you have ever considered playing the DLC, thats were (in my opinion) the game truly shines. The bosses overall are considered way harder & the new weapons in the DLC are just phenomenal.
I highly recommend playing it ;)
Update: Nevermind i just saw that you already played it and made a different Video on it haha xD
Thank you. I'm delighted you enjoyed this so much.
Haha, saw your updated comment. I prefer the episode covering the DLC. It is a bit slower and gives each boss proper attention as well as admiring the world.
Yes! Finally Bloodborne platinum journey!
At long last, haha.
Adam has finally "slapped the werewolf"!
I did not consider to buy this game because there was somenthing in me that really wasnt attracted to, but man seeing the joy you had while playing it convinced me to buy it. I love your videos a lot, greetings from Mexico!
Yeah, once you get used to it, Bloodborne is a great game.
Greetings from Ireland!
Haven’t played bloodborne yet. I have watched lots of bloodborne videos. This vid has just made me so excited to get stuck in to it! Great video as always Adam 👍🏻
Best of luck when you get around to Bloodborne. Great game.
I am a bit late on this but man what an amazing episode. Hats of to you Adam. That start was hilarious... its one of the strengths that the game doesn't hold your hand but as a starter it can get really confusing. And Watchdog of the Old Lords still give me nightmares! Thanks Adam for the quality videos.
Thanks. Happy to hear you enjoyed the video. Yeah, zero hand holding, really cool.
Love your videos Adam. I started this a while back but gave up cos of the punishing learning curve and how brutal the game is. Watching this makes me want to go back to it as I do like a challenge. Keep up the good work :)
I understand giving up. If the camera wasn't rolling I probably would have given up too. On the positive note, if I can beat it, I'm sure you can too.
Cheers. Happy to hear you enjoy my videos.
Funny thing, after watching the video it made me want to go back and platinum it also. I actually got it yesterday. What a great game and one of my favorite games to platinum. Keep up the great work, and I can’t wait to see what other games are in store for your platinum journey.
Congratulations on the platinum!
Congrats on 20k subs 🥳
Thank you.
For a moment there I thought he would try and do a fist only run. Cause that’s how hardcore Adam is.
Amazing. Watching you play this blind is hilarious and thrilling. Genuine content is great content
Cheers. Happy to hear you enjoyed the video.
Such a great video Adam I really enjoyed this months and can’t wait for the Q&A and the next platinum trophy video see you till then!
Thanks. The Q&A will be great fun!
This brings back so many memories for me - both frustration and victory. Those first few minutes, just looking for a weapon...and the dungeon fatigue is real. I didn't plan to platinum Bloodborne but by the time I got to the end (for the first time) I was so into it I just wanted to keep going. I wound up getting the platinum on my third run. Still my favorite of all of the "souls-like" games for its mood and atmosphere.
I watched the Resident Evil videos and now this one, you just earned another subscriber - really great attitude, nice videos!
Cheers. Welcome to the channel.
I have never got platinum on any game, but I've always wanted to. Your dedication is inspiring, and your good nature makes it seem like it comes easy! You deserve so many more subscribers
Thank you for saying such kind words. I'm sure you'll get your first platinum at some point.
This might be my favorite platinum video of yours
I'm thrilled to hear that. Cheers.
Congratulations man, that's well earned. It took me aaaaaaaaaaaaaaages, you did well
Thanks!
Great video Adam, I've been looking forward to this one, shame about no music it adds quite a lot to the experience, completely understandable though. Keep up the good work!
Thanksfully, playing new game plus I was able to turn the music back on. It is epic.
My favorite episode yet! This is my most proud platinum. Cheers Adam, keep up the good work 🍻
I'm thrilled to hear this is your favourite episode yet.
Congrats!!!! Was looking foward to this one. Such an amazing and beautiful game.
Thanks. Yeah, stunning game.
Congratulations for this platinum!
Thank you!
Never played Bloodborne and thanks to you I dont think I ever will. Haha. Love your channel Adam. Keep it up.
Haha, Bloodborne is certainly not for everyone.
Getting all the way to the Cleric Beast without a weapon is impressive. But at the same time I was screaming “GO TO THE DREAM DAMMIT!!!” Lol
Haha, I was screaming the same thing watching back the footage after finishing the game.
Man, I envy you having your first exposure to Bloodborne. I've played it over so many times and enjoyed it, but that first time experiencing it from start to finish the first time can never be repeated!
Yeah, experiencing Bloodborne for the first time is something special.
Its funny, so many completionist format youtubers these days but stumbling across this one was a gem of a find! 8 prefer the rawness of Adams. I don't think I've watched so many back to back videos!
Welcome to the channel. I'm happy to hear you enjoy my videos.
