Bought Lies of P last night and made it just past the first boss. I know some folks are comparing it to Bloodborne and I can see why they think that (damn chimney sweeps). I do like the game although I wish the dodge was better. Bloodborne had a sick dodge system and this one isn’t quite there.

Also, quite thrilled to have bought a game on PC that actually works. No major bugs, crashes, etc. which is really how it should be.

Anyone have any thoughts, opinions on the game in general?

    I’ve bought collectors edition of all fromsoft souls-games and initially I really like this, it’s pretty cool so far, although I’ve only just arrived at the hotel.

      I almost bought the deluxe edition on Steam but didn’t (being cheap I guess).

    I was really interested, but heard that they added Denuvo after the review window, which is somewhat offputting.

    Hold the parry button rather than clicking it quickly. When you first hold the parry button is when the window starts, and it lasts a few frames while held. This works for perfect guard as well.

    You’ll still need to time it properly, but holding it longer should have a noticeable improvement in the consistency of your parries.
