The games were released in 1996 in Japan and 1998 in the US. The anime aired in 1997 in Japan and 1999 in the US. So the games still came out before the show in the US.

People say this a lot and I believe it's based on this quote:
I pop the video in, and wow… Tears welling, silence, goose-bumps… Wow. [I felt like] I just lost my girlfriend, because that song isn’t mine anymore… It really made me think about how powerful music is as a medium and art form. I wrote some words and music in my bedroom as a way of staying sane, about a bleak and desperate place I was in, totally isolated and alone. [Somehow] that winds up reinterpreted by a music legend from a radically different era/genre and still retains sincerity and meaning — different, but every bit as pure.
Many people seem to interpret "that song isn't mine anymore" to mean "that song is now Cash's". But here's another quote:
Then I got a CD in the post. I listened to it and it was very strange. It was this other person inhabiting my most personal song. I’d known where I was when I wrote it. I know what I was thinking about. I know how I felt. Hearing it was like someone kissing your girlfriend. It felt invasive.
To me, that doesn't sound like he's saying it's Cash's song now or that Cash's version is better. It's more that Cash proved to him that even though this was a deeply personal song about his own life and struggles that he's not the only one capable of doing it justice. He realized that other talented artists can take that song about him and transform it into a song about them. The song's not his anymore because it could be anyone's song.

The player believes that this transformation feature is in Bloodborne but wasn’t ever added to the playable game.
Uhh... What? It was added in the DLC with the Beast's Embrace rune. Equip that rune and the Beast Claw and voila! You're now a beast.

I really liked Dawncaster but then I didn't play it for awhile and when I came back it had changed significantly and all the builds that I used to win with consistently no longer worked out. Honestly it's probably more balanced now than before but I haven't spent enough time with it to get good again.

Beast Roar completely trivializes the Micolash fight. If you don't have enough arcane for that, you can always just cheese him with poison knives.
Micolash is a troll so it's fair to troll him back.

I really liked the first one but for some reason the second one didn't really click with me.

I really wanted to enjoy them but I just couldn't get into the first book. Between the naval terminology and my complete lack of knowledge of the geopolitics of the era, I never really settled into the narrative because I spent all my time trying to decipher what was actually going on.
No ascension level but I've been struggling with this boss for a while so it was pretty satisfying to finally get a victory. I had a few bad runs in a row including a really terrible one right before this. So I wasn't expecting much when I started a new run and picked the max HP boost out of the two options. But then this seed just handed me a great shiv deck right from the start. Blade Dance from my first fight on floor 1, Accuracy from my second fight on floor 4, plus another Blade Dance I bought from the shop on floor 5. By floor 12 I was up to 3 Blade Dances with 2 of them upgraded, a Storm of Steel, and a Ninja Scroll relic. Shivs out the wazoo, not to mention the Bronze Thorns on floor 2 when I got the relic in the first try in that event that lets you sacrifice health for a chance to get a relic. Despite the solid start, I was starting to get a little worried in the back half of Act 3. Between the Ninja Scroll and the high likelihood of 1 or more Blade Dance+ in my hand, the difference between drawing Accuracy+ in my starting hand or not was huge. I was so worried about it I even bought Lee's Waffle at a shop before Donu and Deca because I forgot that the Pantograph was already going to heal me before the boss. Fortunately I drew the Accuracy+ turn 1 against the Sword and Shield. And just proceeded to wreck them. This deck felt really strong if the Accuracy+ came out early but a bad draw against the Heart would ruin me. That's where the Bottled Lightning and Bottled Tornado earned from the S&S fight saved the day. Guaranteed a turn 1 Accuracy+ and Blade Dance+ which was a big improvement. But was this deck really strong enough for the Heart? I managed to do some solid damage from the get go but I was concerned about my survivability. The shields let me survive the first few rounds but I eventually needed to use the Wraith Form+. Time to do or die, kill the Heart before the Intangible wears out or lose. But, alas, the Wraith Form+ wore off before I could deliver the final blow. Not even very close. 48 incoming damage and I only had 44 HP. It was a good run but once again the Heart had defea—hold up, I have Bronze Thorns and an active Caltrops+ and the boss is doing a 4x12 attack! Is this enough to kill the Heart before it kills me? Well, yes, you already know from the post title. The retaliatory damage managed to take out the Heart before it killed me. I was very excited to have finally accomplished this. After so many attempts that I thought had a chance but eventually failed, it's very satisfying to be able to pull out this win. Anyway, thanks for reading! Off to higher ascension levels for me now!
