    Lies of P - a Pinocchio-Inspired Souls-Like Game

    Yeah, Laxasia was the only boss in the game that I would like to fight again to get a better understanding of her moves. Of course it's your playthrough and your choice, but you may want to at least try dancing with her a bit in a second phase.

    Can't wait to read your reaction on another delicious gank fight later on :positive:

    Lies of P - a Pinocchio-Inspired Souls-Like Game

    I would steer towards 6,5-7/10 personally. It's like a mix between bloodborne and sekiro, while having neither bloodborne worldbuild/atmosphere nor sekiro combat qualities. I just didn't have very high expectations after playing demo and avoided listening/reading reviews before playing by...

    Atmosphere, character development, combat system/feeling as well

    Lies of P - a Pinocchio-Inspired Souls-Like Game

    Similarly to what other people said: enemies in the game, tend to use extended windups connected with superfast actual attack as well as tempo change of combo attacks. You also lack tools, like attack animation cancel and poise, so parry system relies on memorization more than reflexes and it...

    That would be racist :negative:

    From Software Elden Ring - From Software's new game with writing by GRRM

    Yeah, rolling between usable items is the most irritating part. In the previous games I was mostly drinking estus, so there was no issue, but here there are many items between which you switch and while focusing on enemy, you sometimes end up summoning horse instead of drinking potion. They...

    Mediocre RPGs are worse for the genre than outright trash

    Not really convinced. Mediocrity is like a part of natural order. If developers produce mediocre games with hope for benefit, they keep the genre living and provide information about what is not desired.

    Baldur's Gate Baldur's Gate 3 RELEASE THREAD

    Are the tieflings being that common and casual lizardmen in the city some feats of 5e or it's another larian shit? Maybe it's because of the tiefling refugee group from act 1, but I feel like I'm seeing more tieflings than dwarves in this world.

    It's being translated. Here's listed progress for ongoing projects, though the last update was in May: https://blog.mangagamer.org/project-status-2/

    Rance Series

    Now I saw, indeed there is. Thanks a lot for pointing that out.

    Rance Series

    I'd say Sengoku is more like a complete product and because of that I'd rate it as the best. Kichikuou had better history and denser, darker atmosphere, especially with some of the character outcomes. However mechanically it can be quite frustrating with for example saving only at a turn...

    Lies of P - a Pinocchio-Inspired Souls-Like Game

    Played the demo. The funny thing is that you can do rolls, but only when you don't have locked camera. When you're locked on, you have some awkward sidestep instead, which made me get stuck in enemy models a few times. It is especially bad, while encountering multiple enemies. Exploration...

    From Software Elden Ring - From Software's new game with writing by GRRM

    While it has some irritating enemies, Stormveil Castle is one of the best locations From has made. In Elden Ring only the Capital is similarly good.

    Incline Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty

    On the first boss second phase, I wasn't able to dodge thorugh the broad attacks with his tentacle. I saw somebody doing that in the video, but it still feels to me not that reliable, so yeah, parry seems to be the preferable option. Also completed the demo on KBM. Fortunately the camera wasn't...
