The new Bloodborne-alike Lies of P is a nice-looking game, but it looks particularly impressive on AMD's latest GPU.
7 MILLION reasons to celebrate.
Thank you for being part of our journey.
this reminds me... I have to get back into this one. Really well made and I like the story.
Well deserved! I honestly feel this is the closest a Souls-like has gotten to emulating a FromSoft game to the point where I feel it was a FromSoft developed game.
It really has that classic Souls-like feel of the Bloodborne and earlier From Software titles. There's so much to love about the game, and easily one of the strongest first entries in a new franchise I've seen in a long time.
Some have criticised it for taking too much from the Soulsbourne games, but the additions and changes it makes are brilliant. It probably has the best health system of any game I've played in the genre.
I played it and it's awesome, but what does this mean. Do they count the players that started it on GP and played 5 mins in these numbers? Last I checked this game sold 1 mill (October).
It would be nice to have an actual established norm for "players count" as it can be anything.
A player could be someone who cumulates at least 30 min of playtime in the game.
Also, it would be nice to understand why a single-player-only game would need a player count to measure the success of a game.
For example, it would be understandable if each player counts for some monetization like Youtube that MS has to pay the studio.
Anyone who has booted up a game on Game Pass counts as a "player", which is why Microsoft and others have been using those kinds of buzzwords because they sound better than the lower "copies sold" number would be
I played this on GamePass, 1000G'd it, then bought it on the PS5 and Platinum'd it, all in the space of about a month or so. Was absolutely addicted to it and highly recommened it for any on the fence. Can't wait for either some DLC.
Lies of P's Steam version just got rid of the Denuvo anti-tamper DRM software, as noted by a recent edit in the game's changelog on SteamDB.
Lies of P Update 1.5.0.0 adds the previously announced Wo Long collaboration items alongside a bunch of bug fixes & more.
I love this game but how the hell have they not balanced the nameless puppet fight yet. And yes I beat it, I don’t need to “get gud” and I’m sure you all are gods who beat it first try. But that fight is unbalanced to a broken degree.
Lack of "native" makes me wonder which FSR setting theyre actually using.
Its borderline embarrassing seeing how far AMD/Nvidia are stretching the truth with their selective info benchmarks and marketing. Why bother, they just get slammed when the hands on analysis comes out.
How long before that card overheats?
They always miss that extra level of aesthetic polish that the souls borne genre is known for. It's like fromsoftware hand crafts each piece of terrain geometry in the most important places.
Bloodborne felt dirty, felt visceral, felt unique...the geometry in this game and other games like it that are not FromSoft feel generic and clinical, especially in the architecture.
