We all Groggy right nowwwwww

[@Sillygabriel]

quite groggy

[@adestriaellis9424]

Hold my beer, i’m going Grog

[@dirtiestharry6551]

In Korea, groggy has been go-to name for status effect describing stunned enemy or enemy who can be aflicted with additional damage. When games leave Korea, they usually get translated to more suitable names(even though groggy itself is english) like stunned, paralyzed, or staggered. For some reason it seems devs or the english localizer really liked groggy as a term.

[@fr0gfairy]

An interesting note about Sophia! To quote Wikipedia: “In Gnosticism, Sophia is a feminine figure, analogous to the human soul but also simultaneously one of the feminine aspects of God.” Very interesting that Sophia in Lies of P so far seems to be a more spiritually inclined entity, as the traditional Blue Fairy is the one who turns Pinocchio human sort of like a God.

[@andrewchedid7310]

Sophia means wisdom in Greek and wisdom is part of the nature of God and one of the gifts of the Holy Spirit.

[@Project_Rinzler]

Also, i highly recommend to everyone to play attention to what bosses say! I know, that text is seems corrupted, but if you pause and try to read, you actually can see that scary Srapped Wathcman actually maybe not so bad, cause he blames adults for everything that happens to his friends - children, and also that he misses them. Extremely hyped for the game, hope it did well and we see more from the devs. ❤

[@ShinigamiEater]

this is something i was aware of while writing, but since it seemed uninvolved in the main theory i'd be laying out, i opted to not mention it. it's very cool though!!! lots of tiny little details like this scattered around the whole game so far.

Anyone that references The Grim Adventure of Billy and Mandy is truly cultured

[@Snake0Gamer]

Well now it’s here everyone 😉 The hype was real

[@harrisonfrazer7670]

It is interesting that the development team talked about 3 major endings, as Bloodborne has 3 major endings as well. And the speculation Shinigami made in this vid aligns pretty well with those BB endings; the one with the blue haired girl could be an interpretation of the Mercy Kill ending where you wake up in the Real World(aka human); the one involving Giappeto could be evocative of the ensing where you become, oh idk, a PUPPET of the Moon Presence; and finally Manus' ending could be an interpretation of what many assume to be the "good" ending of BB, but as Shinigami pointed out in his video on BB, it is anything but...

[@scheppusmaximusgaming]

lies of p literally had the best demo i have ever played. i just hope they didnt put all the work in the first few areas and let the endgame slide..

[@dirty.bvstard8672]

Im so glad im not the only one that likes the weapon sharpening thing. I think it makes the game more interesting, and gives you a reason to pace yourself and stay on high alert. Maybe even ads another layer of difficulty, considering you have to know when to sharpen just like you need to know when to heal. It's so goood!

[@aelarharune]

God this has singlehandedly made me want to play the game, good job Kuu, great video

[@ELDENLORD89]

Words can’t describe the level of excitement I felt as you were running through your theories. God damn I’m so fucking ready man. I’m going ultra off the grid dark mode when this releases like I did for Elden Ring. Already got the shit pre-ordered for the 3 days early start. I just saw the new weapons videos and holy shit the hype is unreal! Thank you for a fantastic companion piece to the game. Even if your theories are not 100% they’re really really well thought out.

[@frommetoyou5450]

I hope for your sake you wont get disappointed.. dont expect Elden Ring, ya?

[@tarkisasimp]

the vinils and the bosses are fucking god tier, i loved this game

[@MKCovers]

I'm not normally a big Soulslike fan but the moment I first saw anything about this specific game, I was instantly hooked. Not only does the steampunk-esque aesthetic make me so happy but I love that the developers are taking a story that is already pretty damn dark and making it even darker than before. And on the subject of Ergo, I have a feeling it's exactly just the whole I think therefore I am thing. The puppets have to use ergo because they literally cannot think without it and if they are unable to think for themselves, they cannot be, whether that be means "alive" or functional. Idk if my rambling makes sense but it just goes to show how though provoking this game already is!

[@GreaserMan]

I could have listened to you for hours, this was a great video! I hope you do another one once Lies of P is released!

[@mintyone]

Really hoping you keep posting and this channel blows up. I'm a big fan just from 3 video essays.

[@Sentay0]

I played the demo and was absolutely blown away by the style and polish, genuinely incredible, hyped as fuck, hope it pushes Sony to finally release Bloodborne on PC.

[@originalityisdead.9513]

Sony have lowered their budget for single player games, it's 55/45 split in favour of live service, it used to be 88/12 in favour of single player. That should tell you all you need to know about what route Sony are planning on taking. They plan to split the budget even further with it being 60/40 in favour of live service. Sony exclusives have gone downhill big time and i beleive it will only get worse.

[@originalityisdead.9513]

@frommetoyou5450 Its not hate, its a fact. Also, it is relevant as expecting a BloodBorne release on PC when they've slashed their single player budget is merely a pipe dream.

[@originalityisdead.9513]

@@frommetoyou5450 Do you not know how to use a search engine. Search "Sony have cut their budget for single player games" Go and read their financial report. What I've stated are facts, it ain't my fault you can't accept that.

[@thebignacho]

Oh my god people say that everytime an event happens in life 😂

[@m.a.dmatt6689]

One thing I noticed in some of the gameplay previews is that if your arms has a element to it (ie. fire, electricity) it will apply that to the weapon when you sharpen it

[@Kaleb._]

This is one of the best videos I have seen on youtube. Good work man!! You earned a new sub.

[@exeledusprince9165]

I very much suspect that Sophia has SOMETHING to do with the petrification curse.

[@SoulKingsss]

Great stuff. I'm envious, you're a great creator

[@Sleepy12ftPanda]

Ergo could just be a reference to Rene Descartes' phrase "Cognito Ergo Sum" (I think therefore I am). That'd go for Ergo Proxy as well. Makes sense, right? A substance that gives puppets the ability to think and form an identity literally named after a maxim about the immutability of the self?

[@abraxis59]

I really enjoyed this video (the first of yours I have watched). Great coverage of the demo and the known lore. I found most of your theories to be really solid and all of them interesting. I also liked the style a lot. Well done!

next time when you lie, try to check the shadow of P, especially his head..

[@Ragnarok-ot2tq]

I thought this was only gonna be a gameplay review but then you hit me with the lore and now im even more hyped to play it. The story seems so interesting and I hope it does have something to do with your theory.

[@VirulenttWolf]

Great video. Loved the dive into the lore. Keep these coming when the game comes out! Subbed

[@posteriorpepperoni]

28:54 one thing i want to point out here are some of the letters being unlit in "Festival". This to me seems like a reference to the famous phrase S[he] be[lie]ve[d],where the letters outside the brackets spell "Sbeve",and in the game's example we have "Siv". Ok,all jokes aside,the lit letters spell "Fetal",so likely there's some parallel to the original story of Pinocchio learning to become a real boy

SO hyped for the lore in this game. We made a video on some of the potential lore back when the demo dropped and I love that you're out here digging through too. The idea of the Geppeto family is solid, I have a feeling the details of this story won't be as esoteric as From games. I could see this being a mid-to-late game reveal.

Heard that there's a boss named almost the same as a Soulsborne boss, guessing it's going to be Manus then.

[@Chris4Battle]

That problem with the blood vials in bloodborne is also in sekiro like the spirit emblems and divine confetti . Cause you kinda need the items for certain bosses like the one monk guy in the cave that spams the purple magic good luck trying to beat him without divine confetti 😂.

[@chrishastings7583]

100% the atmosphere hooked me

[@kenshin391]

I'm just amazed how someone finally toke folklore and finally made it into one of the most popular genre of games which are Souls games. The whole atmosphere and the scenery is just mind blowing. Can you imagine other folklore games possibly being made into souls games like Alice and Wonderland. This could be the start of something amazing.

[@tagwaggin]

I was previously on the fence about Lies of P's theming choice compared to how much I enjoy Bloodborne's but you have singlehandedly convinced me that this is going to be a fantastic game that I've gotta check out, even if the hypothetical paths don't go quite the same way as you're suspecting. As always, you have a talent for being succinct and informative in your points but keeping the presentation exciting the whole way through. Another fantastic video, dude.

[@Nuovaah]

peak theme when talking about the game play

[@Umchokewl]

Your theories are what is going to make me play. Up until now I had no idea about the plot and stuff. I love games with a good story. Just running around killing things and finding items isn’t enough. Backstory has also intrigued me now more then just thinking there are some rabid puppets misbehaving. With your theories, I am now curious about what is going to happen at the end of the game (my personal play through). I think I will preorder now. If I don’t progress however (lack of skill, direction, whatever) probably my last “souls like”. So fingers crossed haha.

[@Manic_Mitch.official]

That head got me groggy

[@fromrawn9303]

Blood vial argument: Being my first Soulsborne game I wasn't very good at it. The direction they went with was that of a slight survival horror feel. This means painstakingly pushing through challenging areas and trying to manage vials as you take damage, this leads to incredibly tense moments when you are desperately searching for the next lamp/bonfire with only a small amount of vials left before death and you know there might be enemies ahead. Loved this feeling personally as opposed to Elden Ring/Dark Souls where you are always fully stocked with Estus and eventually get to the point of having too much healing where the game feels trivial. Defeating a boss with no vials left and knowing you have none in your surplus is immensely rewarding, as opposed to simply dying and starting again with a jacked amount of healing items. Eventually when you get good at these games you don't need to farm at all, I could pick the game up today and not need to farm ever, but this is a problem for a lot of players. The argument against this is simply, farming kinda sucks. This point is also very basic BUT valid. I think FROM achieved in what they wanted with the survival feel to the game. Despite my actual love of this design choice I can see a QOL update in a remake/remaster that auto refills your vials.

[@plaidchuck]

In bloodborne it became trivial too plus you had 20 vials from the start as opposed to actually increasing estus. Fail arguments

(Two things I enjoy indulging in from time to time) ShinigamiEater I don't know how long you have been doing this but this style of video is something I aspire to create. The relaxed mentality that your established in your craft but the formality to present the information in a composed way that professionals are picking up what your putting down. You have a wide array of old and new sound clips, music and editing style.....unless you paid someone to do this, in which case I tip my hat to them. But the direction of the video surely was yours and for that I whole heartedly appreciate the masterpiece that has your name on it. I do have a few questions creator to creator I'd like to reach out and ask just for my own protective reasons. I try to reach out to established people to understand more about the ethics of content creation.
