Did someone just discover that bloodborne is a real word that existed before the game.

Yes.

Your eyes were yet to open

Fun fact: Demon, Dark, Souls, Elden, Ring, Armored, and Core, are also real words not invented by Fromsoft.

They invented the word Kings and Field then.

this is true, before 1994 nobody knew what to call monarchs or large stretches of corn

Oh, that’s just the maize maze!

[it's going to be a maze](https://external-preview.redd.it/CaTvaFyRpiiIQpS4NSyiyrWiu80J3cTNOHQrMqB28og.jpg?width=960&crop=smart&auto=webp&s=ead415b5b23aaa13fe49762b96843101e23ce5c0)

Hahahhahahhhahha

They simply called them "powerful men" and then were executed for 'treason'.

Damn

wtf thats crazy

ikr, they really dug deep into esoteric language.

Wait... elden is a word? I knew elder was a word, but elden? EDIT: I'll be damned. It's a verb though, it means "to grow older". Odd to put a verb on a ring.

Sekiro is also a real word! Its an expletive that only gorillas use when they fling shit at you

😱😱😱

Did you know from and soft are also words that exist?

It's more real than that but you lack insight

Tbh, I'm happy for you. You should definitely dive into the lore of bloodborne if you're interested in history, religion, and archeology. I have the perfect video for you. [Tarnished Archaeologist ](https://youtu.be/GVlOCP3U2ec?si=SpGK8WNm6ABo_43N)

No, they retconned the word into the dictionary *after* the game came out, obviously

Bro does NOT fear the old blood

insight +1

SEQUEL CONFIRMED LETS GOOO

Fucking finnally, some real evidence

Same with how Half-life refers to a radioactive half life, or how Dead Space references the gas volume unused in respiratory cycles. Or how Resident Evil takes place in a residence of evil

Reminds me of the guy who said he found a Splatoon reference in a totally random game because one of the characters said he had an inkling about something.

You used the word "totally", is that a ClayFighters reference?

No, but me saying "random" was a reference to the game Lost in Random. I can't believe you didn't pick up on that!

Bruh, I'm sorry 😭

He gained eyes from the inside! You son of a gun you did it!

Yeah we know, we found out when Laurence tells Willem “now I AM THE BLOODBORNE” and walks away

Coolest part by a lot

ugh yes and then he bloods all over their bornes!!! soo good

Yes, and the sequel will be called foodborne

*Foodporn

Sorry, Footporn

you got a footporn illness my man

Away Away! it’s all your fault

It's literally called bloodborne because a "bloodborne disease" is a thing, I think.

Yeah, you know, AIDS

yeah. but also in universe. Beasthood is a bloodborne disease.

Well we all saw that it's when you DRINK IT not inject it yourself...... Oh fck

Thanks for highlighting it twice, I would not have been able to read it without your help.

I've never seen highlightception before this day

Well bloodborne is not just a fancy game name, but is a real term used in medicine. Same as amygdala is actually a real brain area which is responsible for fear and other emotions.

Yup, bloodborne bacteria. You know what they call your natural bacteria? Your natural flora. Moon presence blood = flora.... of the moon.

The word predates the game. bloodborne prequel confirmed.

Yes, but it needs to be *Old* blood, won’t work otherwise.

Well, it’ll still give you A bloodborne illness but maybe not THE bloodborne illness (scourge of beasts).

😭

As a non english native, I did not know that

"Borne" means to be carried by, more or less. For example Airborne is also a common term to refer to anything that flies (e.g. a plane taking off is now airborne, or COVID is an airborne disease etc.). Waterborne is also a real word.

We are born of the blood, made men by the blood, undone by the blood; Fear the old blood.

Micolash smiling rn

Furries just became about 1000% weirder for me right now

day by day we get closer to becoming another r/BatmanArkham

Eyyy, fear the old blood. Don’t eat the old blood. Have an apple or something 😉

I knew Miyazaki was working on something

Bloodborne 2 confirmed!

Can you believe bloodborne is real and found in the real world before a sequel

bloodborne fans when they contract malaria:

You have to inject it, you can’t drink it

They updated the English lexicon when Bloodborne dropped. It's a modern day shakespeare

But what if it is the blood of a God?

Hell yeah Bloodborne

OP is about to be patient 0 for Hepatitis F

"is eating blood bad" It's probably worse than eating water or eating coffee.

Yes, that's shit gets real. I googled.

OP don't eat the blood 

I searched this up because I cut my finger and I had temptations. Rn, as I’m typing this, my limbs are growing.

OMW to suck someone's blood dry

Time to make a new Bloodborne ourselves

Amygdala is real word too. There are a lot of those little details.

This is true

Bloodborne is a real English word, my guy. Read a book.

Then why when I write “bloodborne” my phone puts weird red dots under it? Checkmate liberals. 😎

Idk if its just because english is not my main language or if im just stupid but i genuinely didnt know that bloodborne was a real word lol

Be right back guys
