A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

What emulator are you using? Only one I've seen was PCSX4 and according to a lot of stuff I saw online, it's a pretty outright scam
ShadPS4 has become usable for bloodborne within the last year or so. Runs 60fps on decent hardware
I was never able to get it to work. Always get stuck on a black screen while loading. I keep trying with new shad builds once a month or so.
Thats too bad, I got it working on Linux with 0.5.0 iirc
I at least own it on PlayStation, so I'm not one of the unfortunate people who can't play at all.
Still, that 60fps sure looks nice.
Yea ShadPS4 is great. PCSX4 is a scam not sure why thats even a thing.
Any chance you could also recommend a place to find a totally legit copy of bloodborne? Couldn't find anything on the yo ho ho subreddit
What makes it a scam?
It's not an actual emulator, it doesn't work. When you try to download it, it makes you fill surveys that make the scammers money. It has a fake github, with a changelog copied from PCSX2 (a legit PS2 emulator), changing the 2 to a 4.
