Lies Of P fills the void Bloodborne left behind 

Those soulsborne reflexes just won't quit.

When the Dark Souls player finds out he's secretly playing Sekiro without knowing.

The souls blood in our veins

Also ignored all tutorials

I feel like he’s got that old gen console For Honor mentality. Spam dodge and RB and hope your hyper armor carries when you aren’t dodging

Here's me saying block

Dark soul syndrome

Arin Hanson disorder

Asmongold syndrome

Illiterate syndrome

Lmfao

TRUUUE!

my thought exactly, well put.

Can't blame him, the only souls born game to prioritize parra over dodge was sekiro I defeated the first miniboss without blocking (almost died, was also indignated with the dodge), just started to Block after some time playing

@@IIKafka but if he just read the tutorial like he was supposed to it wouldn't have happened

@@IIKafka I get using past knowledge for current games to get an edge, but we really shouldn't play every soulslike (or any game) like it's the same exact game. Otherwise, why don't we just play Dark Souls again?

@@_zealos_8213 exactly

its not tho, people complaining saying "the game tries to be like sekiro but the parry isnt strong and you cant act quick enough after..." but the game is literally about using both, but dodge is better most of the time, mostly in 1st playtrough Edit: This is a post full game came out comment, If I remember correctly the demo had a weaker dodge and parry

Yeah I got so mad that he wasn’t even trying to parry 😂

And he said theres no dodge attacks, as hes dodge atacking...

yeah, that really takes it out of the gameplay. These games tell you few things, we should read them.

What I loved about LOP was the emphasis on combos.

I think there is an upgrade that improves your dodging ability, but I don’t know if that will be in the final game

i got to the first boss and only dodged 3 times until i noticed that its a fucking waste of a button input. why put something in the game that does nothing? you might aswell add a button that turns of the game, at least that serves a purpose.

@@Moffatttbecause you upgrade the dodging mechanic. He’s a puppet so he still has puppet like motions. The way attacks etc are all in stiff motions.

@@kuro5041 why should i need to upgrade something like that? its like you playing a game as a bird and you have to upgrade your bird to be able to use your left wing so you can fly properly. tbh this game looks fucking amazing but the gameplay is SO bad. the arm attacks are a big waste of time as you have to be inside enemies to hit, weapons only have 2hit combos making combat boring af at best, the fact that you need to repair DURING COMBAT is even worse as not a single enemy gives you time to repair. not only that but most enemies up to the first boss is just faster than the player in their animation, so the big guys who dont stagger are nigh impossible to beat. a game should be both cool and enjoyable to play otherwise its just a bad game

@@Moffattt alright so hear me out: what if we make the harder mechanic stronger and the easier one less rewarding ? parry is the optimal defensive mechanic because if it weren't, then the game would become a rollfest same as souls (im not saying that souls are easy or bad but the fact is that a lot of new players are spamming dodge) so the dodge is made situational. the 2 hit combos are quite bad i agree but you do not have time for more anyways repairing during combat is unique but i agree it's kinda annoying, the thing is: it never comes up unless you're fighting a boss, and bosses give a little breather from time to time the basic arm attack is useless but later you get a nice stun and a grab which is honestly a lifesaver sometimes

So it s more like jedi survivor . Parry instead of dodging

@@ShadwRavn sekiro

@@yesno5688 yeah . Even better.

It also has health regen like bloodborne. Blocked damage can regen by dealing damage after, as long as you don't take an unblocked hit

I actually finished the game while only using the parry for the red attacks that have a wide area to it and i can not escape it, and the final boss (i had to change my whole build to beat him😅) And i actually enjoyed dodging more than parrying (I did the same when i played bloodborn, never used the parry)

I seriously doubt even 10% of this community knows what DSP is 😂

@@TheCynicalJay good... he shouldn't be known.

Yeah, the game writes it clear as day on the screen LITTERALY while the enemy is staggered and not doing anything. But no, I guess Zanny decided to be illiterate that day or something.

@@pedroportela6476 yea he suffers a bit from wanting to play it like dark souls and not accepting that its meant to be playing slightly different which i like

Tbh the game isn't easy at all but you don't have to use parries. I played through the entire demo and i didn't use parrying once

its harder than most souls games but not in a good way its just the mechanics arent as polished as fromsofts games but they got the closest

@@Eauxz ??? they are pretty dang polished, whole game is polished to chrome, its honestly just parry window is a slight bit too small

@@tommyllama4558 heavy weapons not viable, 20 parrys to get a stun that you need to heavy for. Bad parry and overtuned health on enemies. They decided not to copy the combat which leaves me dumbfounded since the whole game is a copy why not go full sekiro combat or full bloodborne combat but instead took one piece of each and it doesn't play out as smoothly. Either way 9/10 game I hope they learn since they're the closest anyone has gotten to a fromsoft game

@@Eauxz You do bring up very valid points, 2nd game made and 1st time in this style, imo technically flawless in terms of bugs and glitches, and optimizations, i do wish they went full combat one way or another, but honestly most flaws can be fixed in a few patches, I am very much looking forward to the future of this studio and will be keeping an eye on the next game, which looks to be very interesting just based off the small clip we get at the end of Lies of P.

I mean that's how these games are usually played...

@@enol1466 except the game literally tells you parrying is the thing here

@@enol1466 except they're not, Sekiro already proved that that's not the only way Stop trying to force every Souls-like to follow the same damn formula, that's how genres stagnate

@@blinkachu5275 i mean then maybe they should make a different kind of game if they don't want people to play it similarly lmao

ikr? i thought i was bad but watching this really cheered me up

In other words. If you feel that you’re shit at Lies if P, don’t worry, cause Zanny exists

Yeah he’s got that For Honor player mindset of only pressing RB

He did the same thing with monster Hunter, refused to read what his Longsword did and kept doing the basic moves.

You could argue that the game then is doing a poor job of communicating the game's systems without coming off as tedious busy work, short or otherwise, but that's different topic.

@@leithaziz2716bro he literally skips the unmissable tutorial pop ups. Clearly a skill issue at this point

@@leithaziz2716reading ”press rb to parry” when it appears on the screen is tedious now??

My roommate is playing through it right now and it looks like so much fun lol. Figured it'd be right up Zanny's aisle, but since he didn't read the prompts about parrying over dodges he made the game wayyy more difficult than it actually is lol

he completely ignored the tutorials so i doubt he even knows it exists

Mr electro ass is there too

Yeah because he skipped every tutorial for some reason

It was the worst out of the 3

I went with the balance one cause it does decent damage and is also fast

More Lies of P should be coming down the pipeline eventually 🤔

@@thirdzanny I can't wait 🙌🙌❤️❤️❤️❤️
