My favorite thing about this encounter was coming back during NG+ and realizing the intro cutscene foreshadows Geppetto’s plan at the end of the game.

[@zenofthezealous1582]

Yea when you 1st see this you think it references the start of the game but in reality it really is referencing the worst possible ending to Lies Of P. I loved when that info presented itself later

[@plshugme3294]

When Romeo thanks you for killing him tho TT

[@blazex224]

I also just realized this when watching this clip again, wow

[@InfinityFantasy]

As well as realizing that Romeo only wanted to help you

[@samthepigman4069]

This game gave me mad trust issues for the npcs

[@12Raven21]

"Pity we had to meet like this, though."

[@jdiona]

“Maybe this is what real freedom feels like. Thank you Carlo…”

[@christiandavis7924]

It’s awful how even when the King kills you he takes off his crown and shakes his head in sorrow

[@연화-u5y]

"I'm Romeo, You're best friend…"😢

[@elugaporp_2]

he did NOT say that 😭💀

[@skramzboi]

@@elugaporp_2 well, he was best friend of Carlo

[@heyimlate5656]

​@Bees-bm1qk Yes he did.

[@alexsonic8643]

"Pity, that we have meet like this, tho" -King of puppets (in perfect translation)

[@cristianclemente2030]

The worse part is how Romeo looks confused when Carlo first slaps his hand away, and after his face turns angry, he does that little sorrow cry, making it all clear to how he actually expected his friend to go on his side

[@dollycheesecakes3658]

Another awful thing is Carlo/P doesn't even know, and I'm sure Gepetto wants it to stay that way. Having him fight his best friend feels so cruel

[@TheRockstarRunkey]

@@dollycheesecakes3658fr!

[@Jahsizzl9]

The thing that sucks is that the King thinks that this will sway P. Even though as the players we most likely recognize what he’s trying to show us about Gepetto, P doesn’t. He rejects the Kings gesture which saddens Romeo. He’s trying to show his friend the truth

[@arcan5397]

In blind i actually thought he was lying. I started to understand that at the beginning of the last zone of the game

[@aliengamer6668]

​@@arcan5397but thats the thing. No other puppet than carlo can lie

[@dollycheesecakes3658]

​@aliengamer6668 Romeo and other awakened puppets are bound by the convent, though, which is how he broke the others free from it. The true problem is how they can't speak to P. So no matter how loud they plead and scream the truth, P won't hear them.

[@suremaine]

Oh my god. It took me reaching the end of the game to realize. Romeo was warning us of what Gepetto plans to do. This game is tight.

[@twashgoat]

To make things better, also remember that P is the only puppet that can lie. Romeo also had multiple messengers try and reach out to him but had no success sadly.

[@win2teabag009]

"It's a shame we have to meet each other like this."

[@jstarproductions7335]

This scene is so tragic, and it forces us to go along with it, even if we know this is our best friend.... just like a puppet on a string

[@harvey_birdman4455]

spoilers ahead : when you slowly start realizing as you progress through the story that Romeo was Carlo’s friend the human who pinocchio has the body (Gepetto’s dead son)and Carlo and Romeo were friends in the Monad Orphanage and Romeo tried to help him before he died of the Petrification Disease , but knowing full well that Gepetto sent Pinocchio to kill the best friend of his son, Romeo tried to warn Pinocchio but he failed so he thought he was a threat, he did discovered that Gepetto was behind the Puppet Frenzy but it was too late to realize that Romeo actually wanted to help and stop the Puppet Frenzy, this theme represents the whole idea of Romeo trying to save Krat yet ….. it came to this

[@shadowantix8018]

Makes you feel more when the opening cutscene of the King was Romeo trying to warn P what Gepetto's true intentions were with the play

[@johnlocsin1628]

Man, no wonder why the music sounded so somber.

[@harvey_birdman4455]

⁠@@shadowantix8018 dude i mention that in the comment aswell…….

[@CapucineNighly]

Bruh this whole play scene Romeo put out before battling him, is what EXACTLY what Carlo's papa was gonna do to him in the end. He was warning his bff. But since P got amnesia.. He didn't know. :< This hurts in the feels man...

[@maniacalmurderer4123]

“Bright white flames” White means pure or purified Purification, cleansing by fire He’s setting the city in flames but only with the pure intention of curing Krat from the deadly petrification disease.

[@shadowman5412]

Most depressing part in the game.. your best friend who knows you will be there for him gets betrayed unknowingly at the one point where he needs you the most

[@biotoxin6280]

Such tragedy and anguish the intro came across to me as telling a message to you. And the transition scene came across to me as a look of pleading this boss fight is so intriguing.

[@doot7730]

This boss literally addresses you at first like a friendly governor. The way he adjusts his crown and lowers his hand isn't malicious . And enev then after you knock his hand away he cries. Knowing the lore behind this is just....heart wrenching

[@therandomsaiyajin]

Spoiler warning This is probably the most saddest thing in this game (besides another incident later on in the game) After I found out the truth of easy happened fully with geppeto causing the frenzy and the fact the king was just trying to warn us and have us work with him to stop the frenzy only for us to seemingly reject his offer for likely loyalty to geppeto but in reality it’s just that P never remembered him. I will admit, I originally wore the kings garb as a joke but once I figured that out I kept the suit on as a sign of respect for the king and when the other event happened before the final boss, it just solidified my playthrough as P of carrying all the poor souls I hurt with me to end the nightmare for good (cheesy I know but I unintentionally just did that on my first playthrough)

[@maniacalmurderer4123]

It’s not even his bozo, still I respect the dedication Belongs to Adelina the actor And the puppet ripper belong to Arlecchino, the homicidal puppet/part time riddler

[@OrionTheHoonter]

Pity we have to meet like this, though.

[@rickodomatazo8707]

Hurts every time to fight him. There is so much dramatic in the game, so much death. Why the developers could get this two their happiness they deserve.

[@cupcaketv5673]

Man I miss all of these characters and the story so much

[@EternalVII]

game of the century

[@Flembons]

Anyone else think some parts of this sound like the scene in The Incredibles where Mr Incredible finds out about all the dead heroes?

[@ballisticweenie1393]

Glad I’m not the only one especially after 0:50

[@TheRabidChipmunk]

I wondered why that song was stuck in my head

[@OA-kx8om]

I believe you're talking about "Kronos Unveiled" and you're so right about it ! The theme gave me goosebumps as if I was 8 years old again

[@chalinovargaz1888]

What an awesome soundtrack

[@beanman395]

When I first saw his play, I thought he was showing my creation. A man giving life to a puppet with the ergo of his son. A king trying to show me that as a puppet I am still a subject to him But the second run, I saw myself as a means to an end to complete a broken husk. A friend warning me of my true purpose The music doesn't help the feeling of having a heart ripped from your chest

[@stevereallyevil]

the first minute of this song reminds me of the city of tears theme from hollow knight

[@ognjenradanovic1256]

Now that ive almost beat the game when i see this scene i think to my self PLEASE TAKE HIS HAND 😢

[@secar6529]

This ost gave me Nier vibes

[@Witheredfuntimefreddy]

Although lies of p music didn’t really satisfy me as much as fromsoftware’s ones, but this-this hits the same feels as that from a fromsoftware game. Heavily underrated ost in my opinion

[@KoreanSpy1997]

For me, all of the boss musics are fantastic, they were on same level as from IMO. Not to mention, the records were even better than FS's musics imo.

[@Witheredfuntimefreddy]

@@KoreanSpy1997fair point. the records were top tier

[@gamehero6816]

On the contrary, the music in LoP is far more memorable to me than Fromsoft.

[@akira8935]

nah this games ost is up their and those records are like a cherry on a sundae

[@maniacalmurderer4123]

Wish there was a way you could befriend the puppet king and help him to take down the alchemists, would’ve been an amazing story change for NG+

[@doot7730]

I imagine a alternative ending were Romeo is there for the final boss as a friendly AI

[@Izak_Klark]

The whole chapter was tragic. We could have reunited Adelina and Patricia. We could have listened to Romeo.

[@SuperNerdSteve]

Always hope for the DLC, tho!

[@Jellyfishlady]

@@Izak_Klark i agree with everything but Adelina, she can get petrification disease and die.(oh wait, she did)

[@Izak_Klark]

@@Jellyfishlady Yeah, I made that comment before understanding that she poisoned Patricia for her own personal gain

[@deviljhodenzel5818]

Easily my favorite boss fight in lies of p the music of the boss fight really captures the sadness of the fact that romeo is trying to save pinnochio who inevitably ends up killing the king On top of that finding out that romeo was carlos best friend A truly tragic boss fight

[@Hikaru0kamiki]

Soundtrack is a mix between nier/bloodborne, but first time i got here i had a weird feeling as if it was trying to show me something and GAWD DAMN HE WAS RIGHT, felt bad fighting him, he legit started going apeshit in the fight knowing we rejected his offer.

[@Rraaaaain]

Favorite thing about this boss is beating it on my second try on my first playthrough nyehhehe

[@ztsquid3000]

Obviously, this is the cutscene that we're seeing right now is Romeo Trying to warn Carlo about Geppetto's plan. Thought I point that out. 🤷‍♂️

[@EscritordelaMuerte.]

[@mot5919]

You made him sad :(

[@shadowman5412]

in every souls game lore you must be a villain in order to move on and achieve any goal... but holy hell did lies of p make a sad as hell twist with romeo trying to save his friend even in a puppet form and resisting geppetos grand covenant just to help a friend

[@Davsand14]

I wish there was a route were you can join the puppet king, it would be interesting haha I love this song, the OST is amazing . . They spoiled one of the endings to introduce a boss

[@Drag0nk1ngmark]

Honestly i was hoping with the decoder it would affect the NG+ and beyond. Like first playthrough you probably can grab the real boy and rise of P endings, second playthrough you can get the second ending, but third you could maybe grab a new ending, like what Armored Core 6 does with its playthroughs, by the third time you can get the third ending. I was hoping the game would do that, third time you join romeo and take the alchemists down with him then double team the Nameless Puppet with Romeo as a ally during the second phase

[@Lupercalia-6319]

Can anyone help me out what is the song that plays when the puppet king reveals himself and extends his hand out for a shake

[@ogabrielsabadin]

dont know still needs it, but is "King Of Puppets (Battle Intro)"

[@thatlittlemonstrosity]

why did we reject the offer in ng+? We literally have the decoder and can understand what he says. Why is there no option to join him? At least in Ng+ it would be a cool alt ending

[@KoreanSpy1997]

Technically "P" gets a decoder AFTER this boss fight story wise, this is just for players to understand the story

[@maxxinymanhaes9388]

"Stage of Grief" fits the 2nd phase of the battle better, imo

[@conniefan123]

Although it fits romeo as a character, i do think the phase 2 theme definitely matches the pace and intensity of the fight perfectly

[@maxxinymanhaes9388]

@@conniefan123 Of course. But storywise, phase 2 theme would fit the King of Puppets, the enemy we believe him to be. Stage of Grief as Romeo's reveal theme feels more emotional and tragic. But that's my opinion.

[@doot7730]

The phase 2 fight theme is actually a reference to snow white...instead being burnt white...I think this is either a tie to the fact white and gold seems to be the color of nobility. As Romeos suit in the second phase is gold and yellow. Or It could reference how Romeos body was 'asleep' in the king.and the fire woke him

[@mello998]

I'll bet Ten Quadrillion Ergo that no lore master can explain why Rome is a puppet. Romeo and Carlo were both human children when they met. The "Carlo" that you play as is a puppet designed after Carlo (Gepetto's dead son) meant to absorb Ergo, and eventually used so Geppeto can revive the real human Carlo. BUT. My question is....: Why is Romeo a puppet?

[@gahdamnbru]

it's really simple actually. Carlo had already perished from the petrification desease, and, on his deathbed, Romeo wanted to help as much people as possible, so he turned to Geppetto, asking him to turn him into a puppet, not aware of the fact the he would become the king.
