I Tried A Bloodborne Inspired Soulslike... (Lies of P) 

Definitely meant to be more of a block and parry kind of souls like than a dodge, especially with the health regain mechanic from blocking. I like it a lot, but the difficulty curve in the demo is pretty insane, the final boss is crazy hard

I agree that the quick steps and rolling need some work. It always felt slightly laggy. Other than that , the game felt really solid.

For those complaining about the dodge, try going under 30% equip load, it changes everything. It makes the dodge go farther and more responsive, even makes you sprint like 30% faster. Trust me, try this and come back to me.

I really enjoyed the demo. Needs a bit of work with the dodge and parry timing but it looks really cool. Loved the atmosphere.

Sekiborne is looking pretty sweet!

The dodge feels fine, I had no problems with it

This video was incredible!! I played the demo and love it, and actually enjoyed watching you playing it!! Was funny! But had the same feeling too, it’s so hard because enemy’s delays attack a lot 😂😂

Can't wait for possible future stream or other videos on this game

It’s like Bloodborne style atmosphere with a bioshock spin. Mechanics inspired from every single souls game from miyazaki. And with the difficulty of what feels like playing an actual souls game for the first time. While it is a demo, so it’s not directly how the early experience will be I feel like it’s pretty well made and has an insane amount of potential

It really anoys me when people don't want to read the damn game but then complain about stuff that the game tried to tell them

Lies of P looks Incredible!!

I'm currently on NG++ and I'll say that it isn't perfect, but it's easily the best soulslike, and even ranks higher than some of the FromSoft games for me. My biggest problem with it is the massive delays in attacks; especially on the fury attacks later in the game. 3 playthroughs in and they finally unlock the ability to normal block a fury attack in the P-Organ. Also really weird that they put roll recovery in the P-Organ

I refuse to believe this guy completed Sekiro with those parrying skills 💀💀

I love how RU-vid considered Lues of P as Bloodborne (check the description of this vid)

So happy i could make it to this stream

Lol idk if you noticed the in game message, but they tell you that red attacks cannot be roll dodged, but they can be parried

Yes, it’s very good

It seems like the game wants you to block & perfect Block instead of dodging because it's so cool that you can break enemies weapons & posture BUT however I hope they also make the dodges have more distance I know for the fact you can upgrade dodges distance but it could be way better the starting dodges have slightly more distance than Demo offer so overall I just can't wait for this game releases

idk if its bb2 but it definitely shows how good a sequel could look, and thats very exciting

Overall I enjoyed it. Needs bit of “tightening” with dodging but I think it’s a good showing so far.

Played this Chalamet-Borne demo and loved it for what it is, brother. It felt a bit heavy in places, but I'm not sure if that's just because I expected Bloodborne speed, and that was reinforced in me due to the game's aesthetic. I guess time will tell. Definitely struggled a little with parry timing and dodges.

I've enjoyed the demo a lot. It took longer than it should have for it to click for me to stop trying to dodge so much. Dodging is very clumsy and slow, so I think they really, really want players parrying attacks. I get more of a Sekiro vibe in that regard just for the gameplay. I went with a saber quality build on my first run. I think I might try strength for my second run since dodging and quick hits seems less effective than parrying. The first boss took me 4 or 5 tries to beat, but once I stopped trying to just dodge around him and focused on parrying the attacks it went much easier and faster. The run back to him was easy since enemies are, for now, pretty slow. Yeah, the aesthetics are a mix of Bloodborne and BioShock Infinite (all the luggage about and such, especially), but the combat is very different than Bloodborne. I'm trying to not compare it to FromSoftware Soulsborne games, but it's difficult not to do that. I love the visuals. I like that repairs are free and done on the go, even if the weapon degradation seems a bit quick to me. The stats and the ergo being basically the same as Soulsborne games makes it an easy switch. Out of habit I've held onto the first boss' ergo to see if I could do anything with it, lol. Oh, I like that if we die on our way back to get our dropped ergo we don't lose it all. The amount just decreases a bit. That's very generous of them.

Love being at your stream

More of this please

100% agree about rolling and quick step… hopefully they fix that before release

Lies of P is the best! Everything is good. Played it through twice and upgrated my character and weapons as much as possible. After mastering Lies of P's bosses other souls games feels like piece of cake.

Damn bro really never gave us a part 2 with the end game

I think the reason the dodging is a bit janky is that they want you focus on parrying more.

I’m enjoying it so far, I haven’t played much beat the first boss pretty cool so far

I found it like a combination of Wo Long and Bloodborne, except without the annoying scaling of the former and the dumb healing system of the latter

Thimothee Chalamet : da game

Was a fun Stream ^^

The full game dropped the other day. It’s really fun. I started posting some content of it on my channel. I like that it gives a similar vibe of Bloodborne, with a few elements of Bioshock. The puppets are honestly really creepy, it’s the way they move. The combat is very similar to Bloodborne, though the trick weapons are cooler. The weapons are nice though.

Puppet string is basically Nero’s arm in dmc4

I was there to witness the stream

This game feels so ass when you play it like a souls game, but so good if you play it like Sekiro with the parry focused gameplay.

Calling the dodge to be "atrocious" feels like an over-exaggeration. It could use a little work, but it really isn't that bad. The parry timing felt good to me, though.

if we dont get a bloodborne port or something this year ima freak. I WANT 60 FPS SO BAD

I absolutely loved it. Best soulslike in a while

It's like they mixed every souls game including sekiro and Eldon ring in bloodbirne setting

One of these days we'll get a female NPC without a breathy voice in a soulslike

What do u steam on?

Oh, quick hint for the big guy you were struggling with at the end. I don't know if you've beaten him yet, but there's a Stargazer (lantern/site of grace thing) right behind him. You can ignore him, run past the Stargazer until he stops chasing you, and then activate the Stargazer so you can have a checkpoint right next to his ass~

Is this the Dark Souls of the Lies of P franchise?

Bro this game is nothing like bloodborne more like a bioshock rpg

My favorite games are Soulslike, and one of my favorite games is Nier Automata...OF COURSE IM GONNA PLAY IT, its basically a dream come true

The music is the game's music?

If I was there

The dodge is like fallen order, it looks so bad. But the rest look pretty good.

Don’t even have to watch a minute in lies of p is a valid game.

I liked it but the gimmicks were really dumb, and the 3rd boss was stupidly hard and it’s kind of annoying how you can’t really get around the bosses like you can in the souls games, it’s like Sekiro meets Bloodborne basically.

The only problem that I would say I have with the game would be that the sidestep and roll are to slow and clunky

I played a bit of it but it kinda sucks badly for me personally 😅 my favorite souls likes are from Gunfire games the likes of Remnant from the ashes, Cronos and Remnant 2 that just released are the best souls like games that I’ve ever played outside of Fromsoftwares classics and they are also very different and unique and incorporate much more than just souls formula but rather a bit of resident evil, a bit of gears of war and a lot of guns in the remnant series for amazing ranged combat. I feel like Lords of the fallen is gonna be a true banger.

We all gonna ignore that there is literally two attack animations

I dont really see much of bloodborne in it but I still think it looks VERY solid. They just need to patch the doge and it's all good to go

Bro you be complaining way too much just try to enjoy it the dodge is a bit weird but it still has the same s and stuff just different animation

Best souls borne RU-vidr

Your not meant to be fucking playing it like a souls game and dodge all the time you’re supposed to parry

LMAO no boss could compare to me!

The UI, the hud, the game mechanics, the item description and lore resembles just a lot with "from software" games its not BB2 and one should not judge this game based on just the demo I am hopeful but don't know if this really lives upto that soulsbourne like games benchmark

I enjoyed it but quit once I got to the first boss. The perfect parry/block timing and dodge mechanic just aren't very good to me.

is that demo or how I can play it?

for me personally , its way too similar to bloodborne to me and im not sure why i would play this over bloodborne

Bro didn't make a full vid cus he couldn't beat it LELZ

I thought it was very very promising

Daddy Ember

pls play lies of p

nice

yay

the game looks cool, the protagonist though doesnt seems capable idk xD

its not just a bloodborne inspired souls like, its more of a soulsborne inspired souls like. hell the combat plays closer to souls than bb barring the dodge. the aesthetic is also a blend of dishonored and bloodborne, so not just bb, i would say the last faith is an actual bb inspired metroidvania, as in just bb and castlevania and nothing, most souls likes are inspired by dark souls and not really bloodborne, although im sure this is one of many reasons why bb fanboys have an inferiority complex regarding elden souls, mostly cuz its pretty irrelevant in comparison and is as just grey dark souls to most ppl.

Why is it called the lies of p?????? 😭😭😭💀💀💀

❤ you

This bloodborne pc port a lil funny tbh

I enjoyed it..... My biggest gripe is that it changes your roll to a dash when you're locked-on fighting. I want it to always be a roll

Who also thinks that Bloodborne is the best Souls Game

I would honestly never play this game

I get the hype but to me this feels like "just another cooler" souls-like. I'm gonna pass on it. Also, the dodges are awful. I get it that you're "meant" to parry (so lets just make the dodges as awful as possible) but imagine if sekiro did that. Yikes.

Calling this Bloodborne 2 is insulting.

LMAOO that last guy who u died to is so easy wtf I thought u were good at these games I guess not lol

My only 3 downsides of the demo were: 1. the world doesn’t feel as dynamic but it’s still pretty good leveldesign (not that much enemy variety when it comes to visual aspects, no enemies interacting with the world except that one robot coming out of the door) 2. the first boss was way too hard for a tutorial fight. Especially it’s speed was insane. 3. the dashing/dodgerolling. It’s quite a bit too short in distance resulting in unsatisfying dodges. It all feels way too precise. I really hope they touch at least one of these three aspects, especially the dodging. But even if not I’m hyped for this game. It’s the best non-official souls-like so far. It’s just really charming.

I was hyped for this but it looks like a janky Bloodborne I might give it a try still

They Lost Me with all the Subliminal Masonry shit and the Dodging is Clunky and slow (Souls/Elden Vet)

i completed the demo a few days ago. The combat system is not in a good state right now, the feedback of a parry feels like nothing and it's way easier to just block with my great sword and counter attack. The roll feels fine but the quick step makes me feel like i'm paralysed. The map and enemy design are solid, not very outstanding but not bad at all. I do have quite some hope for this game :)

More like blood bored.

I love the asthetic tho the puppet+circus type vibes are immaculate

"You can copy my homework but don't make it looks obvious" in whole new level 🔥

Somewhat sluggish gamplay but interesting idea I'v tried the demo and decided to skip this game on day one.

If they fix the roll and the parry system, this game could be one of the best soulslike. But, wow, that roll.

Imo it looks terrible and plays very meh. I won't be purchasing this and adding it to my collection

Dammit, I can't like the video, yet. I ain't gunna be the troglodyte that ruins the 69 likes. Edit: "I dunno what a puppet is". The box under you bed begs to differ?

Pee?

Not gonna lie. I really don't like your live commentary

Didn’t like it

I don't care, DS2 is better

Once again goes to show why games like wulong and lies of P will be forgotten eventually…fromsoft just does it right you can copy ideas and mechanics but on a technical level this game feels like ass 🤷🏽‍♂️ mid soulslike with 0 originality/creativity

Game demo was fantastic. Best souls like game to date. People crying about the dodging and timing just need to get better, it worked flawlessly once you learn the mechanics.

Enjoyable demo all around, definitley gonna give the full game a try
