Hear me out:Bloodborneis aDemons Soulssequel.
If youre willing to accept some…
Insight, its a fairly compelling idea.
The Basic Connections
To start with, lets look at the surface-level connections.
They are the most similarly structured of all FromSoftware games, which makes them flow together near seamlessly.
But there are some lore connections in the cut content that bridge the gap further.
Bloodbornes Cut Content
In Demons Souls, the devout say Umbasa after a prayer.
He earned the title of Father in a mysterious faraway land, not in the Healing Church of Yharnam.
Bloodborne also features a cut boss called the Lesser Demon, which looks strikingly out of place in Yharnam.
After all, Dark Souls references Demons Souls plenty.
But the Old One might be the key to bridging the gap and truly cementing Bloodborne as a sequel.
When awakened, it unleashes a fog upon the world that gives rise to the rest of demonkind.
The stories are different, but the corrupting nature of these beings is eerily familiar.
What does Bloodborne notably lack?
At some point in development, we would have fought the Moon Presence on a beach.

Perhaps this was intended as two halves of the same coin, that of demon and beast.
The hub worlds are especially important to each game, too.
Maybe we could fight Eldritch gods in mech suits with laser swords and plasma grenades,Armored Core-style.

FromSoft could truly do anything.
