How would it be too cumbersome to buy?

It's a PS4 exclusive, so anyone who doesn't already have the console have to buy it ($400) to be able to have the privilege of buying it.

(it was worth it)

There's some chance it comes on PC later on. Maybe. Just like Dark Souls did.

Dark Souls never was an exclusive and it was published by Namco. Demon's Souls would be a better comparison and it was never ported to the PC unfortunately. Sony is publishing the game and I'm not sure it would be in their best interest to have one of their only notable PS4 exclusives available on an other platform.

That seems unlikely. Bloodborne, like Demon's Souls, is published by Sony as a PlayStation exclusive. Dark Souls wasn't.

There is no chance of that. It's a Sony game.

Requiring a PS4, which many people haven't bothered with yet (whether from not enough exclusive games that can't also be bought on PC, owning an XBox One instead, or just being too broke to drop $400 on a console for one game).

It's not common at all. More than 20 million consoles have been sold to date. If it was a common thing you'd hear about it a lot more places than Amazon reviews.

hit up google for the most common issues with the PS4.

I'm glad you've gotten lucky. Really, I am. But when a PS4 bricks after 5-6 hours of use and you find thousands of reports of the same thing on a single website.

Well, you may want to define common, but the point remains.

I'm sorry but thousands of reports out of 20+ million units sold is a drop in the bucket.

I remember when people said the same thing about the XBox 360's RRoD before it was publicly acknowledged.

amazon sold 20+ million units?
