Went in expecting a probably underwhelming Soulslike experience, but Neowiz understood the homework. The most competent non FromSoft Soulslike I've played.
Visually evokes Bloodborne, mechanically evokes Sekiro. A compelling story and world with well-considered quality of life improvements over even FromSoft's efforts that work to encourage gameplay experimentation without punishing the player.
The final boss has now supplanted Orphan of Kos as the hardest Souls boss I've fought. Took me 4-5 hours of slow mastery to overcome.
I weirdly never clicked with Sekiro but I'm interested to return to it after playing Lies of P - maybe now it'll finally click.
