You sure you want to see the Bloodborne setup's public mechanics?
It's... pretty nuts. Like, a TON of information to take it, and it won't be useful until I run the game, which could well be weeks or months out from now.-

Alright, I've gotten some interest in this, so here goes the public mechanics for Bloodborne Mafia.
Keep in mind, the setup is still in review, so these mechanics may be subject to change.-

I'm not currently accepting pre-ins for it, since it's so far out. Once Space Dandy starts to wrap up, I'll probably do so.
Right now, I'm making extra sure that the Blood Echo rewards and costs are balanced. They're pretty close to what I want, but it can be difficult to assign a 'value' to certain mechanics. It really becomes a game of, "Okay, I want players to, on average, get access to purchasing these mechanics during this day..."-

But I have drafted all the role PMs in their final iterations, I've done a lot of the checks and balances on it that I can do on my own, I've designed all the Chalice Dungeons, I've written up a lot of the pre-written flavor, and I've got the entire Insight and Blood Echo stores practically finalized.
Right now, I'm hoping my reviewer (Aeronaut) can help me balance out some of the sheer hugeness of the game in terms of 'moving parts' such that no one slot gets totally out of hand too fast to be dealt with. Furthermore, I need to be very precise with the Blood Echo rewards and costs, and while I have a functional and good-looking set of values for them right now, there may be some tweaks to make going forward. A good deal of the work I'm doing between now and launch will be playing through the game again in order to stock images for every possible flavor scenario.-

Holy shit.
PM me when THAT goes into the pre-in phase. Technically, you owe me. Actually fuck it I'd really rather just be in every one of Varsoon's games that I have time for. Damn. Damn. Space Dandy also sounds great, damn. Wish I had time for that one. How many more times can I say damnOne man's trash talk is another man's treasure talk.-

Yeah. After SU, I decided I wouldn't miss any of Varsoons games, and luckily he's going to be kind enough to limit himself to one game at at time from now on!
Also, I hate you Varsoon. You make these mafia games that I REALLY want to have full knowledge of flavor for...and thus by letting me know such a game is in the works, you indirectly reduce my free time by dozens of hours... I watched Parasyte, played (some) SF, watched Space Dandy, and now I'm going to play Bloodborne.-

I hope you play Wakfu mafia, if Varsoon does end up running it sometime in the future! What a great cartoon.One man's trash talk is another man's treasure talk.-

The entire series is also on Netflix right now.
I'd recommend the original French dub, as the English dub really messes up a lot of the voices, imo.-

Seconding everything that Varsoon just said.
In addition to the cartoon on Netflix, there are three 45 minute OVAs that continue the story, and a prequel series geared toward a younger audience called Dofus, based on an earlier MMO by the same people. I haven't watched it, though.
And I believe Season 3 of the show has been confirmed, taking place after the three OVAs. HYPEOne man's trash talk is another man's treasure talk.-

It's a good game!
Unless you really want to swag it up with the Threaded Cane or cheese enemies with the Hunter's Axe, I highly suggest getting the Saw Cleaver as your starting weapon. It is easily one of the most useful weapons in the game due to its fast attacks, great range, and serration bonus damage against beasts.-

Threaded Cane is still a very good weapon--all the starting ones are. Keep in mind that its transformed state does boast serrated damage, which will do extra damage to beast enemies. Pretty much all the enemies in the game are beasts enemies, too.
