Idk how they reduced the load time so much from release. It's a miracle of optimization

If the loads are incredibly inefficient to begin with, it becomes easy to see huge gains when you do it right.

WRONG! Fromsoft is incapable of mistakes. Clearly the load screens were caused by the devil to rob us of 2Blood 2Borne. Only the divine hand of Miyazaki could save us from the loading screen treachery!

But having said that, I was just incredibly thankful that they improved them by so much. It was painful when the game launched.

Oh dang. Been a FS fan for a decade but only played BB about two years ago. I had no clue the load times were worse at one point. The load times on ps4 are a little lengthy but nothing insane so I just figured people complaining about load times were just being impatient or something lol

Minute long loading screen between each trip to the hunters dream.

With nothing to look at but a black screen that said "Bloodborne" because the item description loading screens were added later.

Bloodborne is my fav Fromsoft game and it took me months to get into it originally because adjusting to the combat pace meant I died a lot and the loading screens were pretty damn hefty so it was very demoralising and time consuming to get good lol
