why is there so much soul and effort put into this game?
>>682884205pic unrelated I guess
Lies of P is honestly the best souls-like to come out the past 10 years. It even beats Stellar Blade - just barely, though.
>>682884268your ergo is whispering
>souljej
>>682884321lies of p clears stellar blade easily. It's level design is much better and you have many different builds you can run to mix things up
>>682884528I really like the level design too, except the part leading up to the boxing boss. It felt like it there should have been a stargazer amongst the humans that used guns.
>>682884205This game ruined the elden ring dlc for me
>>682884205I want to take care of that doll
>>682884528They both approach the genre so differently and I almost disagreed but I loved Lies of P specifically for its level design. I liked the open areas of Stellar Blade as well as their linear, puzzle focused 'dungeons'
I am going to the Barren Swamp and I still can't play piano properly... it's over.
>>682885175Small handcrafted levels are simply superior.
buy an ad, everyone knows korean games are soulless by nature.
honestly a big nitpick I have with the game is that the music in the records is really good and I wish those played at points in the game instead of just being stuck as your humanity piggy bank
>>682885419Yeah, instead of an accordion being played from a random building we could have one of those songs.
>>682884340kek
>>682884205>Good presentation with a light splash of Bloodborne + Sekiro gameplay done rightIt's great, and I wouldn't be surprised if I enjoy its DLC more than Elden Ring's when it finally releases.
>>682884205lol, lmao
>>682886078The protagonist will be female this time, right? Dorothy or whatever?
>>682886175Why? Everyone liked Pi
>>682885419Stellar Blade had the same problem, angelic soundtrack that you can only listen to by idling in camp. Kojima said Fuck It and gave us Walkmans in MGS V, but no other developer likes to treat us with music unlike Kojima
>>682886464That's the vibe I got. A dlc with a new protagonist, or is she the antagonist?
>>682885419The records were awesome but the music in other areas was good too. The opera house bgm in particular was amazing and stood out a lot.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=niJ8WiPyBEA
>>682886575>That's the vibe I got.From what? The first 2 concept arts they released for the DLC seem to show Pi
>>682886175That could be another game but not the dlc.
>>682884205Only gripe I have with it so far is the weird attack timings. It's almost as bad as Elden Ring at times.
>>682884205because it's based off someone else's work
>>682886803The end credits scene?
GIVE ME THE FUCKING DLC, YOU CUNTS! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
>>682884205>completely linear>which has a compounding affect on build diversity at any given point in the game>and replayability>everyones lips are sealedHave any real souls fans played this mediocrity or only DS3babies?
>>682887447Didn't finish it yet (just got to the Alchemist island) but my point about DLC concept art remains.It's also a great character design so it would be stupid to drop it.
>>682887649>completely linearyep its gaming time
>>682884205>twink protagonistTells me all I need to know about this game. Soulless slop.
>>682887649On a macro scale it's linear but each area tends loop in on itself and have plenty of shortcuts
>>682887649>>which has a compounding affect on build diversity at any given point in the game>>and replayabilityA game is replayable because it is fun>t. sekiro enjoyer
>>682887649Linear world design is not bad. If you don't like that style of game then that's fine but for me, that is not a negative in LoP and DaS3 because the levels themselves are good. I don't know what's considered a "real souls fan" but I've been playing all of From's action RPGs since DeS (PS3) and have enjoyed every single one of them. I can say that LoP was definitely good and a lot better than I was expecting.
>>682888071>>682888175I'm not saying you can't replay the game, or even that the game is bad for being linear. However, it is objectively worse for being linear because it's at odds with the games genre of being an ARPG, where player agency is the whole point.
my only complaint is that some of the larger miniboss style enemies only appear a handful of times in the game which is a shame because they were much more fun to fight
>>682888547Also I'd like to add that Lies of P is NOT Ninja Gaiden, DMC, or Bayonetta. The combat is completely reactive and there is nothing about the combat that one can even master to begin with, what you master are the timings of individual moves bosses throw at you. This reason this is important is because it increases the burden of the 'RPG' part of ARPG to carry the experience. Dark Souls, which also has simplistic combat, realized this and made up for it sufficiently via giving the player more non-combat freedom.
>>682888547the whole point of an arpg is to sprinkle rpg mechanics onto an action game, and that's it. stop making shit up.
I watched my friend play this for 10 minutes and the roll animation is so dogshit I don't think I could pick it up
>>682889092>Action game = player expression via combat complexity>RPG = player expression via build/part composition choices>ARPG = (you know this one)It's pretty straightforward logic. Also see >>682888945
>>682887447I think the end credits scene is just to show they plan on doing more games in the setting based on other fairytales
>>682888547How is a game worse for taking the route of having a clear order that you do the levels in? The game has a narrative and it only makes sense to do the levels in the way they're laid out. I replayed the game after clearing it once in order to get the true ending. I did NG+ and carried all my stuff over, thus having late weapons carry over and usable from the beginning. The way you say it's "at odds with the game genre being an action RPG" is confusing because that implies that there's some sort of fixed rule-book on game design. An action RPG can be linear, open world, or whatever the creator wants really. If you can only enjoy games that let you do the levels in whatever order you want then that's fine I guess but nothing is "objectively" worse here. It's just not the style of game you like, that's it.
>>682889198you do bloodborne dashes and use parries when in combat, you're never using that roll really
>>682889313>excessive mental gymnastics to make up bullshit parameters for something extremely simpleyou might be retarded
It’s better than Elden Ring.
>>682884321>It even beats Stellar Blade - just barely, though.Nigga, have you even played it?
>>682889818Yep, it beats Elden Pride too!
>>682889426>The game has a narrativeIn video games, the narrative serves the gameplay and not the other way around. The narrative could easily be changed to fit a non-linear world layout. >Implies that there's some sort of fixed rule-book on game design.ARPG has a set-in-stone meaning with straightforward unchanging objectives. >An action RPG can be linear, open world, or whatever the creator wants really.The freedom of choice doesn't mean all choices are of equal merit. You strike me as the type of faggot to hold post-modern money laundering period-blood-on-a-canvas art on part with Leonardo Da Vinci.>>682889605>no rebuttalI accept your concession
>>682887154I'm glad it's not just me, there are a lot of attacks that seem to just delay (especially the red aura moves) harder than some of Margit's.
>>682884205Because P is beautiful and based.
>>682887154>so farIt becomes comically bad at the end. If you make it that far you'll be saying >Elden Ring is almost as bad as Lies of P
>>682885028
>>682889541The quick step is honestly dogshit because it's a weird combination of short with high I frames. You'll get out of the way of an attack but you'll never feel like you got sufficient distance especially to get into a more advantageous position. Also fuck every boss attack being a knockback even on deflect
>>682890072Absolute retard of the highest degree and I can't take you seriously with that image. I'm done here, you "win" anon.
>>682888571>ClownNo>PinocchioYes>JesterYes>Future PuppetBoring and slow
>>682890268>The first mini boss outside of the Ruined Krant Stargazer>Transforms his arm into a blade then spends like five seconds winding up before he takes a fucking swing
>>682890591>you winhard to hate an honest retard
>>682890072>In video games, the narrative serves the gameplay and not the other way around.The gameplay is the narrative
>>682890791That's deep
>>682890120It harms the immersion for me. Rather than an enemy swinging to kill you, it ironically just feels like the devs pulling their strings.
>>682890980Lmao that's a perfect analogy. I'm playing right now (healing with the regarge amulet) and I just ran into the mace hand zombies in Ruined Krant. The fucking delay between each attack is absurd. I think it starts getting bad around the King of Puppets but you can see it all the way at Officer Murphy
>>682884205because it's not made by slop software
I found it fun but the game does have its issuesIf they address them in their next game then I think it could definitely match up to the big leagues
My reflexes for parry and stuff just aren’t the same.Should I try this one out or am I getting severely filtered?
>>682884205Its better than Bloodborne
>>682892278you can go through basically the entire game without being good at perfect parriesit just makes encounters easier in general
>>682884205>Seol's Like
They just took everything wrong with souls and perfected it.
>>682884205Is this game really good?Kinda want to revisit ER for the DLC but bosses just spazzing out wasn't fun the last time
>>682892864>but bosses just spazzing out wasn't fun the last timeThen you're not gonna like Lies of P they have that in spades
>>682892864It's especially fun if you really like Bloodborne and SekiroBut I do feel like it got excessive with the second phases even more than ER did. One of them I got so fucking sick of that I just used acid grindstone then fable arts and cannonballed them into a stagger just to get it over with.
>>682892864Does this answer your question
>>682893301Obviously don't know anything about this game's mechanics or timing, but this looks a lot better than that fucking academy dog constantly jumping around the room 5 times a second
>>682893750Oh, so you're just slow then. Yeah, you'll probably enjoy it. The clip is supposed to showcase how the game is one big trial and error exercise with obnoxiously staggered and intentionally poorly telegraphed attacks, but bashing your head against a wall seems right up your alley.
>>682893301the fact that this game is getting bait webms is true proof of its quality
>>682893301Skill issue tbqhfam. They also made this attack easier to parry in a patch by giving it a big red flash before it happens so retards know exactly when they have to press the button.
twink sexo
>>682894061>gettinggot, past tense, because it has since been forgotten. Also notice how neither of the two (You)s can defend the clip in good faith. >>682894169>retardsYou mean everyone with a reaction speed slower than a rattlesnake? (You) learned how to deflect that attack by getting hit by it, like everyone else. You're fooling nobody.
>read through The Adventures of Pinnochio>currently in Ozma of OzJust drop the DLC trailer already!
>>682892278I'd say it has a problem with slow windups and no tells when it releases, only timing. If you want to count down 90% of enemy attacks sure
One thing I like about LoP is that the questlines don't usually result in an NPC dying. Getting kinda sick of all the NPCs in From games just randomly dying at the end of their questlines without much reason desu.
>>682894597>Lies is getting a DLCGot I hope we get a Peter Pan boss
>>682890610P of The F isn't really a boss, ha more of like a big gimmick enemy blocking the way to some loot.
>>682894592>(You) learned how to deflect that attack by getting hit by it, like everyone else.Yes? I see something I don't know, eat shit, try to figure out how it works, and then find a way to deal with it. That called learning. It's the fucking final boss and it's the fastest attack in the game, it's supposed to be a very risky parry that gives you a huge window of opportunity.
>>682884205>IGN gave it a good noteAdded to my playlist.
>>682895856Peter Pan is the overarching villain for the series. Don't expect a boss fight, but expect some cool bosses and reveals.
>>682895856I also want to keep P as a protagonist. Yeah fine add Dorothy or whatever, but have her a par of a greater team led by Pino to kill Peter Pan.Inb4 P turns into Captain Hook.
>>682897496>P is going to retroactively become a staple character in every IP, cementing the player's role in their respective stories Fucking amazing.
chapter 11 is a little too long for my liking. I get it's the final chapter but it starts to drag once you get to sophia
>>682898218We already know he's going to be The Tinman. Seeing P wield a Dane axe would make my decade. Trying to think of what other stories he could play a part in.
>>682897496This is a legit theory. P already dresses like Hook, is a skilled sword fighter , has black hair and a prosthetic hand.
The game, while not perfect genuinely does ooze soul. The atmosphere is amazing, Krat is such an interesting city to explore.
>>682898330>>682898460>yfw we'll get a Sekiro grappling hook in the sequel / third game>everyone just calls us Hook
>>682890610>PinocchioIs that the mascot thing that rolls everywhere?
>>682899028Screenshot it and in eight years when we finally see this come to fruition remember that it was heard here first.
>>682884205The setting and twist on classic Pinocchio is greatThe parry-heavy combat is smooth and fun (for me)The music is great
>>682898242Final area is also just pretty bland looking. The beach was cool and early areas in the temple but after that it's just grey stone and wood scaffolding.I was expecting the alchemists Island to be a bit more extravagant and mysterious looking.
>>682899028Holy fuck, that's why "P" doesn't really have a canon name. Yeah the title implies it, but it could just as easily.be referring to the fact that the P-Engine allows Hook to lie.
>>682884205Because the devs were asian and not westerner
>>682884205lies of P(iss filled corridors and boring fights)
>>682888945Damn I always wondered why 3 felt so lucklaster in exploration.
>>682899505Scrub detected
It's always amusing to me that soulsfags scream about the linearity of the maps (this goes for Nioh and SoP as well) as if it's objectively wrong instead of it just being a design choice of the developer
Good:Nameless Puppet and King of Puppets are fantasticThe record system being the most shockingly high-soul music system since Far Cry 5's triple albumCore combat very satisfying, WAY better implementation of non-R1-spam combat mechanics than Sekiro or ERThematically I don't like the blade-handle system but it makes for some very cool possibilitiesBad:A lot of the moves feel like cheesing is the correct way to play, from Romeo's "Fable art to stun me out of my combo windup" to how most of the major combos can be outranged by link dodging backwards twiceThe FF13 of Souls games, linear to a faultIgnoring linearity, the level design is REALLY uninspiredAwful weapon variety for Advance buildsJank translation, not quite engrish but very awkward sounding writing and dialogue which is a shameOutside of Romeo and Nameless Puppet the puppet theme fell totally flat for me. Probably looked a lot cooler in the concept art, didn't lean hard enough into the horrorThe Petrification Disease zombies fell REALLY flat, holy fuck they're so lame and not coolGold Coin Fruit and the Wishstone mechanic is just total dogshit, nobody interacts with itGame is generally too easy probably because they didn't intend for rolls to have as many iframes as they do in-dev (Parade Master demo v release game is night and day boss difficulty)
>>682900503What could be changed about the level design to make it more inspired?
I have this faggot printed out on the wall that i look at when I'm exercising
I enjoyed my time playing Lies of P more than SotE. I really enjoyed that this game has a proper story and it was a fun one to go through. The music was also genuinely fantastic.There are still lots of issues but they have a good core to work with, I am excited to for a sequel or DLC.

>>682890072>imageimagine the day to day retardation that happens in the skull who made this
its way better than shadow of the copypastatree
>>682900503>Outside of Romeo and Nameless Puppet the puppet theme fell totally flat for me.I liked the backstory of the Scrapped Watchman as well but I agree, they dropped the puppet themes too fast.
>>682899052Yep
its an extremely good game. dlc when?
didn't expect some noname koreans to drop this out of nowhere. like stellar blade really
>parry heavy game>parry timings are very tight and some of the late game bosses have really dumb animationsthat's my only gripe. And I assume it's been patched since release but I'm not fucking playing it again
Am I bad if I use a summon when the boss has a second phase? I beat the archbishop's first phase and had a sigh of relief, until that snaky bastard came out of his arse. I said: "Fuck that, if he's gonna jump me. I'll jump in return." So I used a summon a few times and eventually learned to parry his super death Lazer and won. Good fight:9/19 Very fat and regret trading his soul for the amulet.Lots of P
>>682894036>he game is one big trial and error exercise with obnoxiously staggered and intentionally poorly telegraphed attacksso elden ring too?
>>682884205I always read this shit as Life of Pi
>>682884205The better question is why does this game always send /v/ into shrieking shitstorms of unbridled hatred and fury.
>>682886175>>682886464The DLC will have P. The sequel will have Dorothy.
>>682906283Yes, but Elden Ring is much more honest than Lies of P, even if not in general. >>682905697You're playing a game built around tediously mastering poorly telegraphed boss movesets, so on one hand, you're definitely subverting the sole focus of the game. On the other, it's a cheap game that doesn't deserve any respect. Personally, I would just stop playing, but if you continue definitely summon at every given opportunity.
>>682887839This, only beefcake American men or big-titty slut whores make me care about a game and show it's high-quality and the devs care.
>>682907127Probably cause the title is one of the worst ever conceived, and there's been a billion other attempts at aping Souls that have soured people on the idea. This is the one Souls clone that truly succeeded though IMO, would love a sequel with qt Dorothy.
>>682896157Isn't it amazing how many gamers these days get mad that they have to actually learn and practice a game? What happened to that legendary gamer skillz they always crow about?
I liked it up until the very last stage where I just stopped for some reasondoes feel like sometimes the game is trying to cheat you with some boss movesmaybe I'll finish it when the DLC comes out
>>682907259>the title is one of the worst ever conceivedWhy? A huge part of the story of Pinocchio is the whole lying and telling the truth thing, and that factors into the game's central story and theme.
>>682896157>>682907394So stupid. Since it needs to be spelled out for you, the problem is one couldn't have intuitively responded to it the first time due to >how simplistic and reactive LoPs "combat" isand>the lack of a tell This is called lazy game design, artificial difficulty, etc
>>682907458the late game bosses stink, you are not alone
>>682908035It's called learning how to play the game and practicing until you get good. Goddamned little children can understand this concept, what's your excuse?
>>682908179The boss in that webm isn't >"the game"It's a boss. So if anything you seem to be confused. >"the game"is about tapping L1 before you get hit, and then fitting in as many R1s as you can. There is nothing to practice, or get good at there. What you practice and get good at is individual boss fights, which in themselves are designed to be overcome via trial and error due to dishonest design. >little childrenAt least we can agree that this is a fitting description of your level of understanding of video games.
>>682908690>designed to be overcome via trial and error due to dishonest designAh, I see, you suck at learning therefore it's dishonest.
>>682900843The wet effect on the default shirt (not as detailed as this art albeit) is so hot, never wanted to change to another outfit because of it.
>>682908859I'm just fine at learning. It's just that trial and error is an inefficient way of learning, often used in conjunction with incredibly simplistic gameplay like>press L1 after exactly 1.842ms!It's literally how machines learn thing without human input. You're a glorified automaton.
>>682908690You are actually retarded.Trial and error IS practice.
>>682909003It's absolutely dishonest, I should not have to do trial and error simply to play a game.
>>682909003None of my assertions have anything to do with trial and error not being practice you retarded ESL.
>>682884321stellar blade isnt a soulslike
>reach awe-inspiring cathedral>has scaffolding all over its rooftops, suggesting a huge, sprawling area>lol, jk - you end up exploring next to nothing in the cathedral itself, go through the basement and catacombs instead and never even go to the rooftops outside of a single balcony>entire level is over before you know itFuck that game.
>>682905697>Am I bad if I use a summon when the boss has a second phase?The swamp monster says "no".
>>682910406Yeah, I hope they step up the level design in future games. The combat is already great.
because it was made in the eastthey know that beauty sells
>>682884321Stellar Blade is garbage retard https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4NgX_eN3gj8
Lost it at "upgrade your P-organ".
>>682884205>Like four enemies copy+pasted over 80% of the gamesure, champ
>>682888035And the looping back and the shortcuts are completely fucking useless. Unless you are going to be doing a farming loop the looping back is purely superficial and adds no actual depth to the level design. The shortcuts also are a solution looking for a problem in the game, since they exist so there are fewer stargazers to act as obvious check points, instead letting the shortcut be the obvious check point.Neither the looping or the shortcuts serve the purpose they would in a non-linear level design, which is to allow the player to reach different parts of the world in interesting ways. The developers clearly realized this later, as more stargazers were just plopped down like check points as opposed to using shortcuts to serve that purpose. Christ, even CoD had levels that looped back, but no one would ever dare to suggest that it made the level design less linear.Don't let your enjoyment of a thing blind you to, and exuse its obvious flaws.
>>682884205I started playing this last week, I just got to the 2nd part of Barren Swamp. It's really fun so far, perfect guard timing is pretty unforgiving but it's satisfying as fuck to pull off. Best boss so far was Romeo King of Puppets and the worst was definitely Fuoco because he wouldn't stop spamming his fire attacks. Started as a technique build but swapped over to Advance recently.
>>682893301That is the 5th or 6th boss by that point that has an attack when their poise is broken to catch you going in for the riposte.
>>682911126>actually likes the gameWrong thread bud
>>682899126>repeatedly parry boss>their weapon breaks>shorter reach, removes some combos from their move pool
>>682888945NGL dark souls 1 is still the only game in the series with actual flow and thought put into level design. Later games are just linear tours to the next boss.Bloodborne is probably closest to recreating it, and ER tries to while failing miserably.
>>682911424I always say that while DS1 isnt their best game it is my favorite game.
>>682911424Elden Ring "main dungeons" are great, but they are scattered across the wide empty open world so they don't feel as connected as DS1 or BB
>>682893750>academy dogis this your first souls game? that thing is hardly a boss
>>682911185>attack when their poise is broken to catch you going in for the riposteThat shit is a genuine example of artificial difficulty.Pulling that suckerpunch garbage after like 10-15 hours and fucking around with core game mechanics and rules is just poor game design.
>>682884205>first half like 40% of the game is robot puppets look like shit but whatever nice to fight something that isn't ugly monster>the rest of the game is just reskin zombie monsterThe enemy variety of this game is wack, too many reskin
>>682911424Demon's Souls had much better level design though. Also Dark Souls has terrible flow because the quality is all over the place, the latter half has some appallingly bad zones, and there is constant backtracking to the opposite side of the world to multiple specific vendors, blacksmiths, or quest NPCs (this was especially egregious in 1.00)
>>682911794Yet you keep falling for it.
>>682911997>the latter half has some appallingly bad zoneshut up

>>682912685why do I like this
>>682884205Pic unrelated?
I love how much this and Stellar Blade triggers /v/ solely because they're made in South Korea.
I unironically think Lies of P is better than Dark Souls 2 and 3. It's nowhere near as good as Sekiro, BB, and DeS, and I think Elden Ring clears it just from an artistic direction/production quality standpoint. But I personally enjoy Lies of P much more than Elden Ring because it's short and sweet, not bloated at all with collecting nonsense and open world/copy paste.It's a really good game, by far the best soulslike. I think most soulslikes feel way too jank or try to be way too different in ways that make them feel bad to play. More importantly, most soulslikes just feel like they completely miss the point of what makes Souls good (artistic direction, good level design, interesting and varied builds/gear, different ways to play) whereas Lies of P genuinely excels in all of these ways.Probably my favorite surprise hit of 2023, and one of my favorite games in recent years for sure. I've beaten it 3 times now and loved every run
Understanding horror in the minutest detail is the secret to unraveling the human condition.
>>682913693the real joke is on you, because you don't realise any part of the game that they had to come up with themselves, without something to copy, is incredibly bland and soulless.zombie enemies, any bosses that aren't puppets sans the swamp monster, the island of the alchemists, etc.I really like the game, but the soullessness of bugmen cannot be denied
>>682914123It's so cute when children try to insult other races and societies.
>>682914251don't reply to me if you have nothing to say on the topic, it makes you look foolish. I'm ignoring you now
>>682914376Don't let the door hit ya where the Good Lord done split ya.
>>682884205The only thing preventing this game from selling way more copies is the lack of a character creator.Lots of people, myself included, refuse to play a faggoty twink like this.
>>682914470he never speaks and you can put him in a completely face/body-disguising outfit basically immediately. so if it's still an issue for you, i think you're an insecure faggot honestly
Imagine being the only one who can defeat the worst of the worst. That kind of makes you the best of the best or the best of the best very dependent on you.
>>682907127Probably because this.It's the same reason why Dark Souls III onward have been excessively trashed.The more games that are built on BB's legacy which are multi-plat, the less /v/ cares about BB. Enjoying games and not being mad Bloodborne makes them upset. Ps5 has nothing that /v/ wants, they can't get their fix so they have to feign tortanic over and over again.
>>682885419The collectable record songs were really nice. Was also really fucking suprised by the fact that a lot of them were actually remixed songs originally from DJMaxhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1f3GY4Osi7Ihttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Kww5b9Tgpkhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bf6RTUHoBEghttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TAs54_DuLJwhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vp8mJYJYOIshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=skBJ7YUWk-Uhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YNzWea3Yh8shttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mvPrjpijw5o

>>682884321can you fucking faggots have 1 fucking thread without instantly pitting 2 games against each other? fuck you.
>>682890272DOLLFUCKER
>>682915198Honey, sweetie, how are we supposed to manufacture outrage and watch people tear into each other if we don't?
the biggest weakness this game has, aside from occasionally awful telegraphing and overuse of delayed attacks, is its OST.almost anything aside from the Hotel Krat theme is very forgettable. You don't need to copy recent Souls games to this degree.Also the second phase Andreus fight music is literally a copy of Duel of the Fates from Star Wars Episode 1
lol nice transform weapon, gooks
Bloodborne if it was good
>>682915198I just put it here
>>682915438not that anon, and I know you're joking, but why do we just not?i wish people could stop being addicted to sports team mentality, outrage and being smug
>>682887649>completely linearGood, I hate feeling lost and I hate doubling back>which has a compounding affect on build diversity at any given point in the game>and replayabilitySkill issue, I replayed it more than any of other souls game (only 3 total playthroughs but still) because of the weapon variety and the NG+ exclusive skill tree stuff>everyone's lips are sealedThis gets brought up in every LOP thread, probably moreso than the games actual biggest problems.
>>682915520>korean trying to animated trick weapons and MH charge blade but failled flat>Even to this day they don't even know how to fix this bug so they just leave the weapon look like some crappy invisible fuckMan, what a dumb gimmik
>>682915520Oh wow, a bug, this is the only game that has one, truly.
>>682915612>gets lost when they way forward isn't linear and outlined with literal lights shouting "GO HERE" >calls other people's complaints skill issues
...
>>682884205The combat and enemy design is artificial trial and error bullshit and you must be a masochist who enjoys doing the same thing over and over to enjoy it
>>682915719Nah, not a bug. They just don't know how to animated transformable weapon. That's why weapon like Holy sword of the ark look fucking stupid when transformation
>>682915794I replayed it recently to get all achievements and I tried out a mod that increases the parry window by a few frames and it's insane how much of a difference it makes and how much better the game feels like that
>>6828933010.5 second off skill issue
>>682915872at least you chose an appropriate image to represent yourself
>>682911185Which is just shitty game designed
>>682911794I thought it was cool. The 1st guy they put it on (the wrestler) was a total pushover, so using him as an introduction for this mechanic was perfect.
>>682886175Dorothy is the sequel hook. Pino will still be the focus of the DLC.
>Soulsslop>soul & effort?????
>>682884205I’m liking it a lot, I maining a Booster Glave Handle + Pick Axe Head for the the Charged R2 and the honestly just the visual of the head, there might be something better, I don’t know. My main problem is the obvious linearity, the fact that literally every side track leads only to some lot and maybe a mini-boss is sad. I was expecting something more akin to Bloodborne, where you can stumble into a whole new area basically everywhere. Also can’t figure out the timing of the Katana at all, but I’m maybe overthinking it.
>>682918336>Booster Glave Handlemy fucking nigga, I used that shit all game
>>682884321>It even beats Stellar Blade - just barely, though.IT BARELY BEATS COMPLETE GARBAGE, KEK.
>>682915198>can you fucking faggots have 1 fucking thread without instantly pitting 2 games against each other?First Korean game thread? that's the only way for Koreanfags to hide the fact that this game is just another mediocre soulslike
there needs to be more porn of P with his long hair
>>682892278If Sekiro was a problem Lies of P will be worse.Endgame bosses are on par with Shadow of the Tree difficulty.Perfect Deflect/Parry window is smaller than Sekiro's.I can pop into Sekiro and manhandle SSI drunk at any time, but Lies of P bosses and their goofy zero windup swings are a nightmare.And if you don't perfect deflect you take weapon damage and have to repair your weapon in combat.I'd put it over DS3 and Wo Long, but under Sekiro, BB, and Elden Ring.
>>682885181You are underestimating how much game there is left.
>>682907127can't have anything ever top precious bloodborne so anything that gets close (especially if it isn't From making it) gets shit on
>>682912886because your a faggot deep inside
>>682911589No, and it genuinely is one of the worst souls boss experiences I can recall
>swag is purely cosmetic>not even a big variety of it and some look almost the same>accessoires are mostly just animal head masks that end up looking kinda dumb Wish there were more glasses, proper hats and shit in the game, especially since the loot is kinda crap in general - dropping off multiple platforms, balancing on rafters and running through poison just to get another resistance vial is Arteria Leaf x1 and Mushroom x3 tier.
>>682890980>>682891508All delayed attacks can be dodged or parried on reflex very easily. The timings are such that if you press block the moment the attacks speed up, you'll get a parry every time.
>>682921102You mean the red orange dog at Hogwarts? That thing is easy as fuck
>>682884321>stellar blade>souls like
>>682921198>You mean the red orange dog at Hogwarts?Yes>That thing is easy as fuckNot for me and I fucking hated it
>meant to buy during the sale>forgotguess I'll wait
>>682900843extremely based
way better than the trash that is Bloodborne and Sekiro.
>>682884205The only flaw is the humanity system should be more clear and visible given it's impact on the ending
>>682884205I played it because it appeared on gamepass. I thought it would be just another generic souls clone with bad combat and bad level design. Oh boy... I was so wrong. I ended up liking Lies of P more than Dark souls 2, 3 and even bloodborne. The game is sooo good. It fixes every design mistake From Software keep making in their games. Everything feels balanced and fair, with easy to understand mechanics and clear quests to follow. I had no need to look tutorials on the internet while playing it and I managed to complete every quest in the game.
>>682915823human brain hates negative emotions and advertisers and attention whores understand that. Meaning you have a much bigger probability to generate a reaction by being negative than being polite and respectful
>>682884205lol, is this inferiority complex?https://arch.b4k.co/v/search/filename/liesofp-1702510493314.jpg/
>>682921836What?
It's good because Bloodborne was one of Fromsoft's worst games.
>>682921901shitposters want attention. They can easily get this by creating conflict in threads
>>682921854What even is this?
>>682921979Why is that a shitpost? The fuckers clearlydon't know how to animated transformable weapon so they make it up by using fallout 4 style gimmick garbage weapon
>>682884205Fromslop living rent free in gook headhttps://arch.b4k.co/v/search/image/SS9N7c7TYH0ZKtOWdPabiQ/
The main reason people don't think about for why lies of p feels so much better than fromshit, is your main defense mechanic coming out on button press and not on button release.The latter is what makes fromshit absolute cancer and shifts its combat significantly from reaction check to Pavlov dog style memorization check.
>>682922167Wop Wop WopCtrl + F: From 20 resultsMeds, now
>>682921854>>682922147>682922167>Every posts, every OP need to mentioned lel from lel dark souls lel elden Quite hilarious
>>682922260>Leave the multi-billion corporation alone!Awwwww, a fromshit drone is mad!I'm sorry for your parents, they've probably did nothing to deserve a child with low functioning autism.
>>682914924The LoP renditions are much better
>>682884205The inverted camera is still bugged? I need to play with inverted camera, is just the retard hill I choose to lie on, until is fixed I will not pirate it again
Post Humiliation ritual
>>682922415>no argument error error>insult mode on
>>682922479Man, i can't believe people still playing fromshit garbage like Sekiro while no one care about my masterpiece Lies of P. Life is so unfair
>>682922545I don't come here to argue with corporate drone subhumans lmao, they are lower life form and the only interaction with them is reminding them of their place down the shitter.
>>682922479It's crazy how Sekiro manages to have more players than DD2.Sekiro is one of From's best games, but still older than a 2024 release.
I can't believe a small indie studio humiliated a multibillion dollar company by just one game that has more care put into it. Shows how retarded and vulnerable the masses are at shamelessly buying same type of slop that has company name under it.
>>682922808>I can't believe a small indie studio humiliated a multibillion dollar company by just one game that has more care put into it. Shows how retarded and vulnerable the masses are at shamelessly buying same type of slop that has company name under it.I wonder according to who huh? Why are you so jealous of fromslop anyway?>small indie studioAre you being retarded on purpose or something, m8?
>>682922808>small indie studiohmmmmmmmhttps://pitchbook.com/profiles/company/64984-24Only 1,038 employess, quite small compare to fromslop 200 employess hehe
For a while I thought I was sick of soulslike combat but lies of p made me realise I was just sick of fromsoft and their rollslop. Goddamn it feels good to play.
>>682923165Souls makes the money but they should have taken a longer break from it, Sekiro and AC6 are greatI hope they are working on more non souls games
>>682922479I presume Sekiro would still win, but LoP statistics will forever be skewed by Gamepass.
>>682922620Objectively>Sekiro has lower requirements to play>Sekiro has a larger parry window (11 frames vs 9.3)>Sekiro lets you fight bosses repeatedly after beating them>Sekiro doesn't force you to repair your weapon in combat EVER>Sekiro's bosses have natural attack animations instead of delayed windups into nearly instant swings
