Theory on Bloodborne being the New painted world. (DLC Spoilers)

[天然のインベーダ]

I know there has already been some discussion on this but I thought I would share my ideas. We know that Aldrich was able to detect Priscilla within the painted world while devouring Gwyndolin, thus gaining knowledge of lifehunt scyth. So we know he is aware of such worlds. It also states on his soul that when he ruminated on the fading of the fire, he had a vision of the coming age of the deep sea. Meanwhile we know the new world is painted with the BLOOD of the dark soul, that when consumed, turns you "beast-like", as seen with Gael. When you give the painter the blood, she asks you for your name so that she can use it it for the new world. Now this is going out on a limb here, but "Your Name", "Yharnam" ... Sounds silly but it could just be a way to make all players feel included. Also, Gherman, The First Hunter uses a scyth, a common weapon seen with painted world leaders. Any thoughts?

Priscilla is sexy

Well, if this is true, the player's name doesn't have to be Yharnam, as the people in the painting might've forgotten it's a painting, or Yharnam's a country in the land of Guts/Artorias/*EDGELORD ALERT*/K***ht

Yharnam was named after Queen Yharnam though

Well first of all sony owns bloodborne, so no chance. Secondly

Yeah, he was becoming similar to Manus. More interesting thing to think about would be connection between darkness, humanity and hands. Manus does mean hands in latin, and manos means hands in spanish, we can find an enemy called Monstrosity of Sin in ds3 which is a hand monster, and Manus has an oversized hand.

Think about that =P

Linked together or lack of original themes?

There's a thing called "going hollow" in dark souls. There's many beast-like humanoid enemies in the games and none of them consumed the dark soul.

Want proof of gael being hollow in the 2nd phase? In that phase the hollowslayer greatsword deals more damage to him.

True, he probably did go hallow, but I'm wondering if it went beyond that after consuming it. Introducing a new kind of madness associated with blood. I only say this because blood hasn't really had any significance in the Dark Souls series until this is introduced. The two games most likey aren't connected, it's just fun to think about.
