This game is so good. I love the charged heavy to stun mechanic. And how you can swap weapon parts around to change your moveset. Such an innovative soulslike
Are you going to be releasing a vid on it Zanny? Here's hoping, I'm still yet to play it but can't wait. (Because we're clearly never getting Bloodborne on PC 😢)
One cool thing about the Laxasia fight: If you use the summon, that throw move she does, where she impales you, holds you up, and then yeets you? Yeah, she throws the summon at you. Or vice versa. She is her. You try and make it a two vs one, and she just gets another ranged weapon.
More bosses should be able to do this For example, let's give this mechanic to the Horah Loux fight from Elden Ring The more spirit summons you bring, the more ammunition he has for his grab/throw attacks
"You can take tha Miyazaki out of your souls game, but you can't take the... swamp... can't take the... You can take the Miyazaki... look you can do a souls, you can take the souls out of Miyazaki but you can't take the swamp... out of Miyazaki's... ass" - Indeimaus peak comedy
When you hear "Pinocchio Bloodborne" you laugh and imagine the jankiness to come, but you can tell so much passion and talent into making this amazing game.
@@gyrozeppeli00 I've played DS 1-3, BB, ER, Sekiro and this. The only game that I like more than LoP from Fromsoft is Sekiro but that is one of my favourite games of all time along with LoP.
@@plosonen you are entitled to your opinion. Imo LOP is not very fine tuned, understandable for a small studio first Souls rodeo. The parrying window is very tight, but you don't actually get that much out of perfectly parrying as you'd expect, from straight up blocking. The stamina loss from parrying prevents the Sekiro standing your ground trading blows playstyle, not to mention the slow stamina regain speed, combined and you have a very slow character fighting arguably the fastest and most aggressive souls bosses line up yet. It feels awful attempting to deflect everything and realizing you don't have enough stamina left for attack. And the classic summersault and poking is serviceable but not ideal. The game identity is so diluted, it has no satisfying play style. Yes you can bloodborne it, yes you can sekiro it, but the game will never feel truly fine tuned to the desired play style. I would even put Dark souls 3 over it, but it's already high praising because this is their first time trying to make a souls like.
Good choice. I wish more people would do that. I got it on ps5 and then on pc. I really hope Microsoft paid them a ton because they likely would have made at least 100 million just on Xbox
Good man! I bought the deluxe edition right off the bat after I had played through the demo thrice. I could tell something magical was awaiting us, definitely wanted to support the devs to the fullest
You really went hard on the editing. A sight to behold. Also, pointing out Dorothy clicking them red heels there at the end. Which makes me wonder if our P will be the tin man in search of a heart that was within him all along.
Here’s a crazy idea so I agree that P would be our tin man, but what if we’re slowly assembling a team and eventually we will get from this company our first multiplayer souls like you can either play solo and switch between Dorothy P and whoever else or you can get like four friends and each one of them can get a controller
@GnatGames lame dude.. I think it's Souls fans would rather keep our single player narrative driven game; you can have the battle pass, micro transaction lousy mess with the next Call of Booty
holds blade up to forearm OmG so cooooooooooool. It looks silly AF and is an annoying mechanic that punishes you for playing the game properly. Weapon durability in souls likes is never a good thing it slows the game down and adds straight up BS difficulty. Having my weapon break twice in a boss fight fking SUCKS and made me quit the game. Especially when bosses regain health having to stop attacking seems super counter intuitive. That paired with the fact that you can't actually dodge until 10 hours in makes the early game a complete slog to replay. It's like they kept the worst 2 things from DS2 weapon durability and adaptability. (you have to level up you dodge)
@@dochallah1721 You could've used items, sharpen your weapon after a stun or use a secondary weapon. Also wdym "can't dodge until 10 hours in"? You mean Fury attacks?
Agreed. My personal favourite is Someday. Love the ones with the piano accordions, too. I forget what exactly it's called, I think Why. Memories of Beach, too. So lovingly crafted, and specifically for the game, too!
I concur with you. I felt like LoP demands you play defensively. I prefer to evade and strike, but I adapted somewhat. Great game through and through, and it will not soon be forgotten.
Man the best part about this game is definently the second loop when you get to feel just how much of a better player you are now. Honestly I can say the game really didn't click in general for me (in regards to personal skill and how I was supposed to play it) until Laxasia, who basically single handedly taught me the game. I love this game so much.
I used summons for nearly every boss in this game and it was still one of the hardest games I've ever played. My blood pressure must have gone through the roof during some of those fights.
The plot twist that you aren’t Pinocchio himself but in a sense, one half of him (having Carlo’s heart while Nameless Puppet is the body) is absolutely bad ass! Easily one of my favorite soulsgames including all of Fromsoft’s masterpieces! I’ve played every single one and am a huge Fromsoft fan but this game was too good!
Masterpiece of a video! Especially loved how it all came full circle with the "man with sword" from the checklist. And you honored Laxasia really well with that epic montage, such a good fight.
Desfinetly agree idk why but i think its sad that the Spider Puppet Ladys in the Theater dont get more attention theire are like no concept Art online of them
ohh! havint seen them since i cant play the game, i dont have a pc good enough to run an old gen game like dark souls 3 so this games still years beyond me, but its somehting to look forward to ^^.@@onlyacomentarynothingspeci2419
Lies of P for me has kind of earned the term "souls game" instead of "soulslike" since its actually better than some of my lower ranking Fromsoft entries. Looking at the combat system in isolation due to the inclusion of many elements and amount of active player involvement I like it the best across all souls games.
I think it's better than all but bloodborne and that is only number 1 due to nostalgia at this point. Mechanically this game is much better than even bb
@@Jesse__H The game feel gets alot better the further you get, I would still say Sekiro has a more "Satisfying" combat loop but I do think this game has over all better mechanics and more stuff to do
I haven't played this one so I'll just say from impression. This one must the most complete package of them all. But Dark Souls has that indescribable feeling as does Bloodborne (though a different feeling). I'd say, both of them is because of their world building and atmosphere.
I do have to thank you for covering this game. I knew you would eventually, but the way you do Souls-likes is super compelling to me, I always wait for your videos on any new ones because at this point I don't really enjoy anyone else's way of doing it.
Seeing everyone's playthroughs of this game actually makes me mad that I fought and beat puppet of the future before getting rid of the poison or even getting the shortcut
I was waiting for the piano bit, and ya didn't disappoint! Who says you can't run jokes into the ground? Six feet under is only scratching the surface! Love yer stuff dude!
I’m not a big soulsborne player but I’ve been intrigued by Lies of P since it was revealed years ago. Finally got around to playing it and I’m a few chapters in. Loving it so far. Luxasia really called on the Power of Greyskull. Also I really love the manus phase transition
Another banger from my man Indei. There is not a single video that I don't enjoy watching from you. I like all the edits especially all the old callbacks. Hope you're doing well and I look forward to what's next!
I've nearly finished my first playthrough. It's the first Soulslike that I feel like can stand on its own two feet and I didn't find myself comparing it to From Software titles. Glad you got around to playing it and looking forward to more projects from the team that made LoP!
Indeimaus, I've been a casual watcher here and there and I have to say: your thumbnails and humor are addictive. You've earned every sub and more! I hope you have a great day!
The video as a whole was fucking excellent, because this is Lies of P and Indeimaus we're talking about, but my favorite part was the Black Rabbit Brotherhood because that song that was playing during it was both fitting and an absolute banger.
@@MarioFanXXL I mean he doesn’t seem to have many attacks, but apparently if you get stuck in a corner he will just keep swinging his sword repeatedly.
Really pumped you played this one. As soon as I finished it I started looking for your play through of it, as I knew it would be challenging and entertaining to watch you go through it. Very funny to see what bosses you breezed through.
Lies of P, lets gooo I only got to try the demo, but it absolutely blew me away. It's the closest thing we're probably getting to Bloodborne 2, and this studio nailed it
I love watching your videos cause you pretty much play games that I will never play. Your editing and funny commentary lets me watch the scary games and your skill and persistence lets me watch the hard games. Thank you very much well done.
I love how the game hints at something more, at first with Frankenstein's Monster appearing like a small reference (just cuz artificial creation=symbolism), only for that final twist that 'Lies of P' isn't actually about Pinocchio -but the Tin Man from 'Wiz of Oz.' Unleashing onto the player the potential of a whole gothic universe of games based on the Grim Brother's fairytales! (Beats waiting for 'The Wolf Among us S2')
You can't do this to me Indei, I was boutta play this myself! Sacrifices have to be made, and I have free time. Bless you brother for working hard for us!
Romeo is such a rad fight. He was the only boss I summoned help for since his first phase wears you down and his second is just overwhelming. His design is also great. I think half his body being scorched black is meant to mirror the theatre mask seen in the flyers advertising the plays.
I played this game expecting a good/decent but cheap souls like with clunky combat. What I got was a masterpiece with probably my favorite combat in any souls like.
Another detail i like is the little things they do to help players. Like how the ergo you drop in a boss fight is infront of the room, or how the number of it turns blue once you have enough for a level up. It just takes some tedium away Or how the 3 elements are effectiv against the 3 enemie types. Electric against puppets Fire against mutants Poison against humans
Im sure you might have figured this out by now, but each handle and blade has a damage type, either Slash or Stab. If you pair a handle that only does well with slashing attacks, and then put say a rapier on it, it will take a massive damage penalty. As well as vice versa. A reason your watchmen fight was so tough, (and maybe why a couple other bosses are gonne be tough for you; dunno havent finished the vid yet) was because you had the rapier blade on the baton handle. A handle that only does slashing attacks. Sorry if this seemed condesending, just something I figured out early on and some people completely miss it. Im not sure if its explained anywhere.
That's interesting to know; I had thought they would balance each other out, but it does make sense that it would provide a penalty rather than a benefit.
Huh. I didn’t pay attention to this… I paired the police baton handle with the wrench head cause I like the feel of it with the strength damage, but I didn’t pay attention to wether they were aligned or not
I would say the "slash" stat in the handles is a misdirection, cus blunt weapons are also paired with it. The more correct option would be "swing", cus it correlates only to what type of moveset it represents , and instead of "stab", "thrust" for the same reason.
Love this game, it makes me rage sometimes and I haven't felt that since the first time I played Dark Souls. Still love it, love that you can swap weapon blades and handles. Almost feels like Bloodborne and since I've come to terms with that never coming to PC I'm glad to have Lies of P. Great game.
I absolutely loved this game. Glad you had fun with it too. It had that perfect balance of tough but not unfairly so. That amazing feeling of finally getting a boss down was just great.
So happy to see you play this! Looove lies of p and everything about it. Also loved how you called the boss fights, when I saw you get to the puppet king I just went “ooooh your soo fucked” One of the best playthroughs I’ve seen of this game, keep it up ma man
Man this rocks so hard. Literally i wouldn't have the patience to play and beat this game, i have completed elden ring and even beaten malenia but lies of p hits mercilessly harder than most souls game's. I highly respect you for beating it brother
Indi, I subscribed to you a month ago & I absolutely love your channel. You're comedy is top tier, megalovania on piano always hits, & everytime there is a form of transportation involved the bumping rap music just kills it. You are truly a man of art & I'm so excited to see your next adventures.
Games you haven’t covered this year: Armored Core VI!! I never knew I would be into mech games, but god damn that game was such a cool detour from the usual Souls formula.
I finished this game a few months ago but man you make it look 100 times more cool keep up the sick work mate also the song is let's dance boys if anyone wants to know.
the animation for when pinocchio punches the gate open for parade master doesn't make me think I need to fight this boss, it makes me think This boss needs to fight ME
The end credits thing was Dorothy from Wizard of Oz no doubt. But I did honestly think for a split moment they were gonna mention Alice or Red Riding Hood. I think for the DLC, they're gonna focus on the legendary stalker, and for Dorothy, it'll be a full-blown sequel.
Here's a tip for romeo from a guy who has never played any soulslikes or from software games and decided that this will be my first soulslike: Go to the merchant in chapter V in the red lobster Inn (you'll need to unlock the shortcut first to get in) Buy 5 throwing cells, 5 thermites, 5 carcass body fluid bottles, and 3 shot puts. Go to the boss area, summon a specter, kill big guy with no throwables, and then finally use all of your throwables on romeo. It took me 2 tries to beat him because I didn't have any throwables on my first attempt.
