On the bright side he wasn't eaten by a giant boar while searching for his father

I like to think that if you don't kill him when he becomes a beast, your character transform him alongside everyone else who are still alive back into humans after becoming the hunter God, it may be a possibility, but hey, one can hope....

That’s what I think, too. I always figured it was why there won’t (probably) be a second Bloodborne. The Hunt and its source were ended, you ascend to godhood and already killed the others causing problems. Now that you’re a Great One, no Cosmic Horror or Eldritch Abomination can harm anyone. Considering your accomplishments as a human and the power of a Great One. Since Yharnam likely became a dream as the game progressed, I doubt it would he difficult to seize control and turn the events starting at the discovery of the Old Blood into a mere dream and then wipe it away. Given how the game starts...perhaps you already did.

There is no happiness in the hunt. There are no saviors in the hunt.
There are only executioners and the quarry they butchery under the glow of the blood moon...

There never is, it's a failed undertaking from the get goTT

In a fan story (mostly poorly-written), there is a part in the beginning when the hunter tells Gehrman about failing to save everyone. Gehrman chastises him that the reason the hunter failed to save people is because he tried to. Hunters kill. They save people by killing beasts. Conserving the lives of the innocent is a byproduct of a hunter’s work, not the purpose of a hunter.

Kind or cruel, the fate is always the same in yharnam.

*sigh* ain't that the undeniable truth...

You have a good point in your previous comment.
the hunters are basically destined to kill the very people they protected, as everyone imbibed the blood.

The only ones at true risk are those who took great amounts of it. Which is nearly everyone, since it was medicinal, recreational, and likely had other uses, too. Given it also seems to radically extend lifespans, I’m guessing the old woman you can save didn’t turn despite her age (and so presumed blood consumption) because she didn’t like using blood. Otherwise her survival makes little sense.

Which is depressing when you truly think about it.
The idea that these people, selectively chosen to become more than just the common folk of the city, aren't actually helping. Hell, even some of the more prolific ones seem to be causing the very problem they were chosen to solve. That makes it hurt more when you see people like Maria or Gascoigne fall and lose themselves. In different physical ways perhaps, but fall all the same.

Maybe the beast plague could have been stopped in the early days of blood healing, before blood became so integrated into daily life. But the church was too concerned with its own influence and power to do the right thing, instead fighting violence with violence. So many people came to yharnam only to be slaughtered, be it by beast or by hunter.
Sometimes bloodborne reminds me of bioshock.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Agreed and heh, I honestly didn't notice the similarities. Sadly, I haven't play Bioshock, though the style of the world does seem oddly intriguing to me. Also, did you hear about the theory the Healing Church poisoned the populace to make people partake in blood transfusions?
The theory claims that since the poison knife explains poison itself is a weapon of the church, the medical tablets cure poison and a water way that runs close to the church itself is easily taint-able, The Church could have knowingly infected the populace with what become known as the "Ashen Blood Ailment."
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yes, I heard that theory.
Bioshock revolves around an underwater idealist city called rapture, where genetically modifying yourself is as easy as buying a soda. Superpowers are commonplace and even marketed to consumers, mass produced and injected into the user's bloodstream. This substance is called "ADAM" which is obtained from sea slugs and is highly sought after to stem the addiction that it confers. By the time your character gets there (via plane crash) the city has gone to hell and there are very few people who haven't gone insane from brain damage due to ADAM withdrawal.
see the similarity? Both are some of the best games I have, but Bioshock is significantly easier (survival horror rather than brutal RPG)
But anyways, It was a very clever ploy on part of the healing church to get the population to play right into their hands

Agreed and it's almost funny that, for as different as the genre of games are, both Bloodborne and Bioshock share this theme of a 'utopia' being built upon the dead, only for everything to go utterly tits up and collapse around the very people who made the so called utopia for the people.

though there is a difference. Yharnam was never a rose garden to begin with, the culture and relations between other cities were rather unhealthy even before the church rose to power
.
yharnam was literally built on top of the dead (pthumerians) but the artisans and construction workers who built rapture became instantly rich, but over the years that money ran out and they were just left behind.
literally anyone had the chance to make it big in rapture, but the culture of competition, IE: "we all move the great chain and the chain moves us all" made this obscenely difficult, and many people were bankrupted by thier own ambition.
you can still see what made rapture such a wonderful place before the minds of it's citizens were were destroyed by a lack of regulations on unstable genetic modification.
They are almost polar opposites but still both of them fell to ruin

Funny how both cities, in their own way, offer the people their own chance at power, at a better life, only for those things to come back around and bite in the arse, isn't it?
Rapture was supposed to be this place where people could be free of the moral laws of the United Nation governed cities and Yharnam was to be a haven where Miracles are given out for free to anyone who wanted or needed them. Alas, both fell in terribly similar ways. From within.

Perhaps it is a good lesson of why morals exist and why miracles should remain rare.

Indeed, though who's to say that even with those taken into account, a change would occur.
And then, God's above only know if such a change would even be good or bad :/

The blood could cure any disease, ADAM could completely rewrite your genes to whatever you chose.
Both are injected into the bloodstream.
Both cause mental and physical damage if misused.
And both have some of the greatest orchestral music in all of gaming. even more simalarly, they were recorded live and not made in midi.

hahaha, that they do my friend.

It is horribly ironic that if the Scourge had come a little sooner, Gilbert would probably not have taken more blood to slow his sickness and he would have died human.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I dunno, I think that sole fact that he was in town as the Rom died was enough to pull him into it with the othersTT
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I said human, not sane. You know, from that perspective, you might as well kill everyone you encounter and take their blood echoes. There is no ultimate difference between that and saving them. Aaaand now the Hunt makes sense.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I think the difference is what you make of it - for the Hunter running around for the first time, everything he does matters. We only know it doesn't because we've already seen the ending.
I think he'd still end up a beast
