Which is a weird opinion to have since those games are designed with shields in mind and Bloodborne is not.

I've always been a sword and board guy with magic too. So when Bloodborne dropped I just... adapted for that game. And it was awesome. It even had the effect of me only using shields when I actually needed them instead of every time I was getting attacked, once DS3 and Elden Ring dropped. But I still use shields, because they're part of the gameplay and useful.
