You have to be in the dlc to get that one. Bloodbourne is a weird one where it has an upgrade system but it's more like devil may cry were each weapon is a new moveset rather than the usual benefits. They're all very similar and viable and I usually go for one that is the most fun. Think I went for the cane for my first playthrough as I wanted to be a pimp ass MF.
I think bloodbourne would benefit from just giving you access to all the weapons at the start as once you get used to one moveset you don't change weapon as there's not much benefit and the disadvantage of learning a new moveset. Some of them are buried deep into the end game or dlc.

I was surprised how well the first game has held up, I played the original a few years ago for a nostalgia buzz and ended up finishing it because it was just so good. The level design of subsequent games never gets as good as that first TR game. Not sure how you can play with modern controls, found them awful and went back to the original controls. They just allow way more precision than the modern controls allow. Maybe it's because I was playing the mich tougher TR3 at the time but it also kind of highlights that old game controls that take a while to get used to are just as viable as a more accessible and modern controls scheme and can even add to the game.
I'm planning on going back to the remaster to play the TR2 and TR3 expansion levels. The TR1 expansion was excellent but I recently watched a video of a playthrough with the original designer of the expansions and it's fascinating how much effort he put into them. He put a huge amount of effort in to make them interesting and they are worth playing with a walkthrough as each expansion stage has very elaborate secrets which all lead to h uge unique set pieces that you can very easily just miss.

It could well be that I'm just hardwired to the old controls. I just can't get on with controls relative to the camera in games where the camera can be so wild in places. There were a few times were I couldn't see anything but I was quite confident in the direction I was going because I knew the controls!

Soul reaver has controls relative to the camera and they are so wonky with that wild camera.
I'm also near the end of Steambot Chronicles on the PS2 and it's introduced me to a new evil. There's no way to invert controller axis. This is fine when the default is what you are used to. This defaults to inverted y axis which is what I always use. However the Japanese are a sick and twisted people as they use inverted X axis controls and there's no way to change them in this game. It means I always press the wrong direction on the analogue stick when adjusting the camera.
