I recently finally fastened my suspenders, donned a tophat, and went back to Lies of P to actually commit to a proper, honest-to-Asimov playthrough. I had a great time with Round 8 Studio and Neowiz's "puppet bloodborne"—not exceptional, but great.
Lies of P did a lot of things I liked, but showed its smaller scope on occasion, which is no crime. Overall, I found it to be a really solid entry into the genre: A couple of wobbles, a couple of great ideas, and basically congruent with our 74% review score. Then I played Overture, and buddy? I have been blown away: Flying backwards, ass-over teakettle, socks and shoes flung off my feet into the next block.
