    I am an Elden Ring noob that just over leveled and had friends for tough bosses. So, Lies of P was a wakeup call for me I am actually having to learn the game and for me makes it amazing and unique in its own right, that being said I never tried BB I am a pc gamer and have no way to do so, but man love this game.

      If you like this game you are going to be in love with Bloodborne. You need to buy a PS4 which shouldn't be to expensive and the game is like $10, $15 with dlc which i highly recommend. Bloodborne is the best fromsoftware/soulslike game ever made and my top game ever played

    Legit the best non-FROM Soulsborne I played. Really strong sense of identity to itself. Devs are very keen on not making the difficulty bullshit either. Coming from things like Nioh or even Thymesia, it was very easy to get BTFO by a boss in just a few hits. Meanwhile here you have enough health and defense that even a failed run on a boss will give you a lot of opportunities to practice parry and dodge timing.

    Honestly the only thing I consider bad about this game is that they lock some essential moves to the skill tree such as rising dodge and and doubke roll behind the skill tree, its like if you were playing wolfenstein and locked the ability to walk to an ability. Its. Not nessicarly bad it just sucks that you have to get to a bare minumum behind skill trees. I honestly think they should add double dodge as normal and then add new skill tree personalization

    For those wondering, you can pretty much max all stats because after a certain amount of upgrades the cost to level up only increases by 1 ergo.

      At a point it's 16k ergo per upgrade only increasing by a singular ergo, but after 20 or so more levels it'll rise up by hundreds again. I'm at 20k ergo rn at lvl 150 or so. 40 in HP, 40 in vigor, 41 in capacity, 42 in motiv and technique, and default 18 advance. Started with great sword but idk the base stats before upgrades.

    I always had the heaviest armour the game gave to me because I actually leveled capacity. Never had problems with stamina and had around 200 stamina total when I beat the game with below 60% weight. I think people are just allergic to leveling something that isn't just HP/damage from playing the other souls games.

    • @TheWatermelonLion
      @TheWatermelonLion 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +9

      Right? And respeccing helps tremendously with being able to put in stats in other places like capacity you would've liked to have known were useful when starting out. There's not much excuse to say the stamina and weight is bad when the game gives you many ways to properly level them up, and with certain p Organ upgrades lowering stamina consumption makes stamina not much of a problem

    • @ainulvr9808

    All I can say is that from everything I've seen online, and one NG+ boss experience, this game is DEFINITELY NOT harder than Sekiro IF you use the Specter. It will take aggro for the whole fight and you can just safely charge heavies until the boss is dead. It's baffling to me that they barely increase the bosses health for bringing in Spencer.

    I find it really interesting hearing about the issues you ran into, because all I did was just level health to 30, level technique to 30, then just keep leveling capacity for the rest of the game until I can use all the heaviest gear, and all I used was the starting rapier, and after unlocking it I switched to the Etiquette and just kept using that, I love them because they use basically no stamina and attack really fast, and make no mistake, it is not lacking in damage at all, 30 technique and S scaling on the Etiquette never fell off, didn't have issues with stamina or capacity, but clearly that is simply due to my weapon choice, the Etiquette is light, has amazing single stat scaling and uses extremely little stamina.

    • @AlbanianThrash
      @AlbanianThrash 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      and that attacks & dodging cost stamina. what made sekiro fun was that as long as you could parry, you could just constantly stay in a boss' face and apply pressure. in this game you have to constantly manage the manage the stamina bar between several priorities and it's kind of a bitch when you're constantly swapping between looking at the bar and look at the animation frames of the enemy. as i'm writing this down it's dawning on my why they probably made that choice in sekiro. they want you looking at the enemy so you can read their movement. the posture bar is placed smack dab under all the action and it's huge so you can always see it in your periphery but never have to divert attention from watching the enemy.
      true you get guard regain from perfect parries in LOP but you still sometimes have to dodge and reposition to punish so you're wasting that tasty stamina on footing.
      I love this game but i think they should've stuck to either sekiro or bloodborne as the main influence. sekiro combat is very different and doesn't really mesh all that well with the slower and more methodical approach of soulsborne combat. it demands relentless pressure

  • @goomyman23
    @goomyman23 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    I agree that its actually harder than sekiro because the parrying is more difficult. I wish they gave you another 10 milliseconds to parry or hell introduce perfect parries. I love that they gave you options but parry became less and less of an option as you got further in, until that fing Green Monster caused me to learn to parry for real for 2 hours. Sekiro is 100% parry, Dark Souls doesnt need parry at all, Bloodborne parry is weird where parries require consumable bullets and the timing is uhh different, Lies of P got it right i think where straight block, parry, or dodge roll are all viable. But bosses are insane bullet sponges without parry - it becomes very necessary and its just too punishing with the timing IMO. Bosses regain health when you hit them ( unless you stagger them ) so playing it slow and steady is very time consuming and difficult, but playing up close and personal isnt viable without parry.

      In the last area you find Arlecchino, the best VA in the game and conclude his storyline. You find another man who talks about his experience regarding reading minds through ergo, wich is a painful experience. This makes alot of sense later on when you actually see Sophia and conclude her storyline. Its more impactful. You also conclude Vegnini's storyline with this area. The area has nice ambience music going on. The lower part is intricate with quite the pathways, where it doesnt feel linear. (upper part is very linear tho because the tower keeps getting thinner the more you climb up). You fight Laxasia in this area. You fight Manus in this area. And you fight Nameless puppet and conclude geppeto's storyline in this level. Oh and you also conclude the storyline with Black Cat and Red Fox. If you don't fight them, you will really understand what they are about. They are not as bad as you think. The rewards the level give you are also nice. Quartz, Upgrade Materials and a couple of new weapons.
      So I wonder, you really find Fromsoftware does it better? You thought Nightmare Mensis was better? Or just entering dead Altus Plateau to have a boss rush? Or Just getting teleported to a bonfire at the end of DS3 to fight Souls of Cinder? I mean..

Also, the people who designed fable art should pat themselves on the back for making some of the most satisfying thing ive felt in a long time. The only negative thing I have to say is about the scaling, but ONLY because they put it on gamepass. I enjoyed the challenge, but if ur gonna cater to a more casual audience u either gotta tone enemies down, tone us up, or add a difficulty modifier. There are hardly any souls likes on the gamepass, and doing this would create a lot more traction for this genre. Thats the only negative thing i have to say.

    @hisoka6272 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    That's a point I think should be talked about more. The stamina and the equip load. I think it really does detract from the enjoyment factor for me. I found myself kind of unable to level other stats because I constantly had to level equip load to be able to accommodate some of those boss charms (which I still don't understand why tf they were so damn heavy). Obviously the stamina is in the game so the player can't just keep spamming dodge, which would be much more effective in this game than in Sekiro where the enemy tracking is much stronger to force blocking and parrying. What arose of this is having to take breaks in between boss attacks where I just couldn't punish them because I had no stamina. You might be thinking what's so bad about having to take a step back from the boss to let your stamina regen, considering literally every other FromSoft game that isn't Sekiro has that going on, but I think this did actually negatively impact the flow of combat.
    In every normal souls game, the entire game is built around the stamina system. It takes stamina to dodge, to attack, to block or even parry. If you mess up your stamina management, you can't punish after rolling. If you get too greedy, you can't roll after attacking. In Sekiro, none of this applies. It's a constant face to face clash with the boss, and it even punishes you if you back off from the boss because they'll regain posture. That's why everyone loves to circlejerk Sekiro on how it's like a "rhythm game" or a dance, because there truly never is a break between you and the boss clashing. Lies of P has this weird thing going on where it's the Sekiro parry/posture break system, but the stamina bar is still there. What this basically results in is in the scenario where you just spent all your stamina punishing the boss, due to stamina recovering slower while you're guarding, after blocking/parrying the boss's next attack string, you're unable to punish. This is by no means a deal breaker for me, but it happens to me more than I'd like, and I notice it every time. This is of course a natural consequence to having an effective dodge in the game like Bloodborne. What this stamina/parrying mixed system resulted in was a game that I don't think plays nearly as satisfyingly and naturally as Sekiro, nor as smoothly as Bloodborne (where it's fully focused on dodging) due to the fury attacks, which either force you to parry or to run away. Granted, that's only if I nitpick on the bad points of the combat system and compare it to two other critically acclaimed games. It is by all means a fantastic game that has quite seamlessly managed to combine two of FromSoft's most beloved games. Okay, internet essay from a random internet shitter over. I'll get back to studying for finals.

      The door guardian is garbage because of its affect on stamina. When I started doing it I missed the checkpoint right in front of the area, so I had to walk all the way there. Luckily by my 5th attempt I found it lol. Regardless, killing those big scorpion enemies in front of the boss area would be useful as well, since they don’t spawn back.
      What you have to do is stagger him by hitting the smaller leg to your left (or his right). What I did was made a motivity and technique build with the wrench head and the police baton handle with a motivity crank (I also switched between using that and the katana with its hilt having a motivity crank in between deaths). I used the fire grindstone (since undead were weaker to that) and had used throwable items a lot ( I used thermite, cluster grenades, and shot puts).
      Also, I equipped the talismans regarding increased health, increased stamina recovery, and reduced damage taken (or I used the more equip load to put on more armor, both were effective, but idk which one I had when I finished it).
      I also used the gun arm thing as well. I still had to get up close at the start, but I mainly stayed at a distance after I got the first stagger was what I did (however I did go close up occasionally, like after that roll attack or when he stood still). Albeit by Ng+ I was able to do it normally with the katana with mainly dodging (some attacks you need to dodge towards him instead) and sometimes deflecting.
      I hope any of this helps, God bless.

      It's going to depend on the person and how you play the game. Sekiro is often cited as the hardest because cheesing it is a lot more difficult. Every other FromSoft game can easily be cheesed with co-op, summons, or broken weapons/spells.
      Sekiro is my favorite game of all time, and I can beat it in a few hours now, but on my first playthrough Sword Saint alone took me three hours (and I wasn't exactly new to FromSoft games having played everything else already). In Lies of P, I found a pretty broken weapon and the final "secret boss" took me maybe 20 minutes.

    I just wish this game wins GOTY, this will highly promote others to try something new instead of just ripping the same formula

      This is the definition of ripping the same formula lol. Does nothing but comine bloodborne, sekiro and dark souls and adds nothing new
