Lies of P is a fantastic video game (soulslike) that felt to me like a dark take on the Pinocchio story at first, but now maybe seems more in line with the original material. A lot of the references carry through.
- pawelduda 5mo agoThe game's way darker still but it doesn't feel overdone. You can tell a lot of soul was poured into it. Nice to know that it all somehow traces back to its source I remember hearing about "Pinnocchio soulslike" and just couldn't imagine how that'd work. Now it's one of my favourites - especially with the expansion.
- geophph 5mo agoAgreed Overture was fantastic! Looking forward to the sequel. And yeah, you’re right it’s wayyy darker ha.
- dugidugout 5mo agoI personally could not stomach the clocktower. I may just be bad at platforming, but the stage felt jarringly frustrating compared to the pleasant frustration I was having with the rest of the games challenges. After my 10th or so time getting blasted by a fireball while inching across a beam, I made my peace. It is a shame because I very much enjoyed the premise and world otherwise.
- pawelduda 5mo agoAbout every soulslike has to have this one anxiety-inducing platforming section. I saw a lot of players complain about this particular part but IMO it's wasn't the most frustrating one:D
- taeric 5mo agoI was curious on this when it came out. There are some really good youtube videos of folks taking a dive on this and it was a delight to watch them.
