2-I'd like to think the world of Dark Souls is more difficult than to be beaten by her polarity, and besides she can't do it forever, she'll eventually tire out.

3. But you mentioned it while comparing how semblance would have worked better in Bloodborne. 1-Yeah, it's pretty bullshit.

2-Yes and no. Most enemies use weapons that involve at least some metal, thus she can just manipulate them with her Semblance. Even if it tires her out, she can easily do what she does in the show: Make attacks easier to avoid or block. In a game with so much bullshit hitboxes, that's a lifesaver.

More magical enemies such as...that thing that controls Gwyndolyn, or rather magic in general, are things her Semblance is not a lifesaver against. Same as in this show. But even so, she can just use it on her own equipment.

But tiring her out is a good idea. It makes me think of Salt and Sanctuary (2D Souls). There's Focus and there's Stamina. Stamina's maximum amount normally depletes by doing stuff, but very slowly. Focus is used when using magic and prayers, and using Focus depletes Stamina like lava erases grass.

3-I said Soulsborne. The fan name for talking about both Bloodborne and Dark Souls at the same time. Plus Demon Souls.
