Bleak

The story is too good for Bloodborne fans

I have to say, this was one of the worst strategy guides. There was barely any explanation or maps to help explain where to go. ; ) However, the use of colour and style in the artwork is brilliant, putting you into the setting of the plot. You could feel the emotion of the characters, while they faced an array monstrosities. Though, nothing could prepare them for facing themselves. : 0

The Bloodborne comics are a bit hit and miss: I liked Vol. 1 alright, although more for the atmosphere than the story. Then they became gradually less interesting, with Vol. 3 being a letdown for me due to what I consider a squandering of beloved NPC Eileen the Crow's potential. I might have even stopped reading the series after Vol. 4 if hadn't already had Vol. 5 at home. That would have been a pity, because in my opinion Vol.s 5 and 6 (this one) have been the most engaging stories in the series so far. Cullen Bunn was a good choice as the new writer and with the introduction of Gretchen and Abraham in Vol. 5 there's finally a pair of original hunter characters that's interesting and likeable. This volume sees the protagonists explore the chalice dungeons underneath Yharnam and so explores a part of the lore that even many of those who have played the game might not be intimately familiar with.
