I've bought all the soulsborne games on release going back to Demons Souls, and I just sucked at them.

I am finally playing Bloodborne after giving up at the first boss many times over the years, playing co op with my girlfriend, who has beaten them all and platinumed quite a few.

While I got good enough to beat most of them, except Sekiro, I just couldn't get the rhythm of Bloodborne, and always gave up, even though I know many people consider it the best in the series.

Going back to my tried and true method of "Just keep grinding and leveling up till you figure it out" finally worked, I beat the first main boss yesterday (with her as summons).

Really looking forward to this one as I've done a pretty good job of avoiding spoilers.
