    I see this game mentioned repeatedly over the meme-brink, but it’s that relevant in the PC scope? Because I am beginning to think only people who had already played on PS4 care about it: it looks like the “I use Arch, btw” meme (a random guy repeated that make clear they use a product/thing… which nobody ask them about).

    Bloodborne sold ~7million copies in the span of ~7 years ( ref ), for comparison a game like Sekiro (while not forgotten, you don’t see random people jumping out and say “I played/want Sekiro btw”) sold 10 million in ~4 years ( ref )

      Aah you’re correct it isn’t a PC game, PS only which accounts for the sales difference for sekiro for example. Also, dark souls wasn’t really that popular until bloodborne came out, it energized the soulsborne genre. It is a very important game, a masterpiece, but unfortunately unless you get ahold of the very recently emulated version for PC, you can’t play without a PS. Sorry, didn’t realize this was a PC gaming space. I saw concord is a Sony game, and i have a bit of a one track mind.

      Personally, I never played it due to being a console exclusive, but would be very happy if it came to PC.

      To me it makes sense that many of the people who played other souls-like/FromSoftware games would want to play “that missing one”.
