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?

So, this game expected you to parry instead of dodging?

I've been playing it wrong lol. I see people keep calling it BB and I tried dodging primarily and it's so clunky.

Sekiro is my favorite Fromsoft.

The reward for parrying isn't as satisfied as Sekiro, though. The damn staggering window is so short.
