One really cool thing about this game is when you beat it and start NG+, you can understand the language some of the puppets were speaking during the boss fights

[@Dan-re2et]

Got a friend who was able to read what the bosses said on pt1 i had beat the game twice at that point so i was stunned

[@Hail_Hydreigon]

​@@Dan-re2et I realized that the puppet speech was just extremely stylized text when I was still figuring out King's first stage. Blew my mind, such a cool moment for me.

[@kneau]

Aye, the text can always be read if you really squint - yet doing that will get you killed. That said, you receive the cipher well before NG+ from Vaninni.

[@madmike171]

I was wondering if that would be the case, like in nier automata.

IF you progressing the quests from Venigni.. if not im afraid you still can't hear what they say..

[@CowKirbo]

Tbh black rabbit 2 is actually a really good example of a gank fight because they take turns and only attack at once if you get close to the inactive ones.

[@catwiffhat4274]

also the other brothers will say a quote when they're about to gank you (unless you get too close to them like you said), even when you can't them you still know how to respond. It's a great gank fight but people in general don't like those fights so they just write it off. I'd say it's basically Shadows of Yharnam but better.

[@couchpotato5657]

Did you not get hit by their throwing items? I hated their rematch since every time I was focusing on one of them the other would chuck knives, or grapple me to the other side of the arena. Was that changed after launch or something

[@sirensoulegaming4158]

​​@@couchpotato5657 they do still use the throwing items, but the thing is, like in black rabbit brotherhood fight 1, if you focus only on the guy going super aggro on you, the others tend to play quite passively. It's far better to deal with throwing items or the odd grappling hook than all 3 wailing on you. I don't think BRB 2 is an amazing fight (tbh I think it's the most disappointing boss battle in the entire game, save for maybe corrupted parade master) but it's also a very fair fight. You get the "oh s***" moment initially that you're 1v3 but nothing in that fight is really all that bad. Romeos fire combo and Laxasia's everything are way harder to deal with. Honestly the most annoying thing about black rabbit brotherhood round 2 is the rrun leading up to the fight. Edit for clarity: the reason why the fight is disappointing is because it never lives up to the "oh s***" moment. Particularly when the eldest revives, i was expecting a really difficult fight. Was super disappointed when it was just a rehash of chapter 5 eldest, except with like 2 new attacks and his weapon already broken. Very disappointing climax, and doesn't appropriately hype you up for what the alchemists are capable of.

[@gerardray1232]

This. They're not as frustrating as some of Souls and Elden Ring gank bosses.

[@dirac_dydx1830]

@@catwiffhat4274 I think Shadows of Yharnam is a "better" fight because their movesets are perfectly designed to complement one another so they can all aggro on you without it feeling unfair, which is really a great technical achievement on FromSoft's part, but I really do love the BRB fights. I find them way more fun than the Shadows, or most gank fights apart from O&S. But I have to give credit where credit is due; Shadows are amazingly well-designed.

Extremely entertaining

[@ferretyluv]

Unfortunately, the Koreans who made this didn’t quite understand the cultural context of Pinocchio in the modern day and in all versions of it, which is the fact that when he lies his nose grows. Except in this game, he CAN lie. Which is stupid.

[@Ligmaballin]

@@ferretyluv Your missing the whole point then. the devs are aware of this and made the whole goal of the game aimed at humanity. P is a puppet, and puppets can't lie because they're not humans, they're programmed. P is one of the few puppets who have free will and his journey is to become human and feel emotions, lying is a big part of it. Also the more he lies the more his nose grows which is valid, but i won't spoil in which way it is depicted in the game.

[@xironheadx-4590]

​@ferretyluv even tho pinnocio isn't supposed to lie. I do think it makes sense here cause every other puppet can't lie and that's what makes it different from pinnocio cause he's more like half human half puppet

[@zacharyjackson1829]

the way i see it, it takes the best attributes of souls but adds just enough spin to it to make it unique enough they cant be sued but where they really go ham is just taking an existing character, creating an overall simple theme, and performing well based on that theme. The story is good enough that if a show came out with the same basic premise i wouldn't mind watching it. I'd say narratively it certainly isn't the most amazing story but it didn't need to be.

For me it didn't click, which was a shame :/ the original concept was solid but all that "zombies" part felt generic, Also the combat always felt a little janky...dunno, can't place my finger on it but it never felt natural to me, I was wrestling P all the time. After around 16hours I had to put it down, was, unfortunately. not having fun. Guess it was not made for me, still kudos to the devs!

[@archmagiste]

It was such a beautiful game. I hate Soulslike games and this was still such an enjoyable experience for me. Glad you liked it! Kinda wish it got more recognition at the game awards AND in general

way worse game

[@Jackraiden500]

oh look, the 3000th time i've heard A piece of media called A "masterpiece" in the last month... nothing against lies of P but people really need to have higher standards for calling something A masterpiece.

[@LuM4rex]

I can understand you buddy. Recently, the label “masterpiece” has been attached to any product that is at least a little high quality and does not violate expectations. I just think that by so often calling games masterpieces, we devalue the meaning of this word.

@@LuM4rex well said m8 i was gonna say something similar but you said it better than i was going to +3 from me brother mane

[@kneau]

An individual masterpiece is a measure of one's personal catalogue of work. For this developer, it is not an overstatement to call it their masterpiece.

[@Jackraiden500]

@@kneau I disagree that eldenring is A "masterpiece" the original demons souls or ds1 perhaps, hell i'd even be willing to put bloodborne down as A contender. They put from on the map and or (in bloodbornes case) very well put together games that push that formula to new heights, and have been far more influential than elden ring has to date. Elden ring is A good, perhaps even great fromsoft game. It has not however, done anything new that hasn't been done A trillion times over at this point and has most certainly not elevated the fromsoft formula in any real way (we have A jump button now and can ride A mount everybody clap).

@@kneau we aren't being pedantic here we are talking about the word in its base meaning, not the minutia or minor details. stop it, get some help hahahahaha

[@susanna8612]

This game is so well made. Current AAA game making studios should learn from Lies of P team how to make whole, complete game which has Soul and everything works fine. This is one of the rare games I have played several (3) times through in a row and completed it 100%. First playthrough was challenging, 3rd was kind of easy already but still enjoyable and u could really play with different weapons and techniques.

[@pyroclown]

Could not agree more, this game deserves so much credit, it feels wonderful to play

[@clintfortune2026]

This was my first soulsgame that i actually invested time in, and gotta say, beating this prepatch was the hardest game ive ever completed, 10/10 tho

[@Syko1985]

Amazing game, but not a masterpiece, it's literally a clone of Bloodborne but in a new setting.

[@jojonta2119]

It has plenty of unique stuff to be it's own thing.

[@dafish5717]

Lies of p was my first souls game, and it was actually easier compared to sekiro and elden rings, i still haven't defeated that boss on the horse and sekiro is fucking difficult I would say the hardest part of lies of p is some if the bosses, the fodder, and the atmosphere more specifically the fear factor of it

[@kevinmiller5051]

Just watched Asmongold playing this, watching him you'd think parry wasn't a mechanic but Charlie seems to have figured it out KEKW

Whenever Laxasia goes into their second phase, they sound like lego yoda dying

[@antonverminck5953]

my guy finally realised the peak content that is lies of P, NL back at it again

[@corinnetheanime]

This game is my first Soulslike, and I fell in instant love. As of now, going through two different NG+ runs with the Two Dragons Sword to practice parrying. Absolutely amazing game that is also very challenging, devs actually listen to player feedback, and it’s getting both a DLC AND a sequel. Overall, GOTY for me.

[@Monyato]

You’ve never played any of the dark souls games? Man I’m envious, i’d love to be able to experience dark souls 1 and 3 for the first time again, do play those games and see the difference with lies of p. Maybe you’ll like them better maybe you won’t, but at least it’s worth a try

[@corinnetheanime]

@@Monyato yeah, since this game is my first Soulslike, I’m definitely interested in the genre. Can’t play Bloodborne tho, don’t have a PS for it. :( Might try out the others sometime this year!

[@TheRedhenProductions]

@@corinnetheanimehonestly the only game in the series worth skipping is Dark Souls 2. Sekiro, Elden Ring, Bloodborne, Dark Souls 1 + 3 and even Demons Souls are all masterpieces

[@Monyato]

@@corinnetheanime since you like this game you’ll probably like bloodborne, idk it’s difficult to say for bloodborne, a few people like me dislike bloodborne, I don’t really hate it because i love the aesthetic, but it’s just… very easy and boring. In dark souls i parry a lot, in bloodborne, i forgot there was a gun halfway through the game.

[@kabxksb]

​@@TheRedhenProductionswrong, Dark Souls 2 needs to be experienced as well lol It is my favourite of the Dark Souls games with the best DLC, and is only second to Bloodborne and its DLC. DS2 still has its issues but no more than the other games so Idk why it should be skipped

[@p.istvan8744]

Laxasia's big dive is not unreactable. You need to block when she is about half-way from you, so what you need to look at is not her but the arena.

[@Kaladin07]

And then you play Lords of the Fallen and wonder what the fuck those devs were thinking lol

[@roadking.118]

Ive been saying it for months now THIS GAME IS UNDER RATED!!!!!!!!!!! AND IT DESERVED MORE FROM GAME OF THE YEAR AWARDS

[@slothfacts9390]

I''m so glad Charlie came back to finish this

[@mauviestwand]

Absolutely delightful game. I didn't have high expectations because I heard a lot of soulslike gatekeepers saying it was bad. Then I watched Blanxz speedrun it for fun and I had to try it. I played it through NG+++ and loved every minute. The gameplay is addicting. So good to see you cover it 🎉

[@ModestKrab]

Right you are sir. I usually come across a game that I really love maybe once every 5 years. Lies of P was my last love. Great story, fun game play. Wish this was game of the year.

[@Jo_Wasabi]

Why did it sound like the Lego Yoda death sound at 1:13:02

[@ParadiseDecay]

looks even better in VR

[@gamenlift1726]

This game should have been nominated for GotY, dare I say win because of that fact that a lesser known developer came out with a game that rivales games from the creators of the souls genre. This game was insanely good and one of the best of the year.

[@whYLiE09]

Playing this game now. It's so addictive omfg I can't stop playing. Currently defeated the archbishop
