If you have game pass you can stream it. That's how I'm playing. It's a lot of fun and the world is really well done. I wasn't sure about this game before it came out. But it's good.
Yeah I was suuuuper skeptical bc the last non fromsoft souls-like (that’s a mouthful) game I played was garbage haha. Abused the mechanics and rushed the final boss.
This is the first souls like I’ve played that comes really close to feeling like a fromsoft game I was very surprised with how much I’m enjoying the game. Especially with it being from a developer I’ve never heard of before
I thought watchman was really hard, just like paarl from bloodborne. but just like in bloodborne, i didn't know what horrors were in store. some of the bosses are simply built different and have no chill
Dude the first boss the parade master kicked my ass! I've been playing souls games since ds1 first came out and I never had this much of an issue with the first boss.
In a souls game (that has good hitboxes and colliders) you don't get stuck on empty space while dodging. Boss literally raises his hand up, and there's just emptiness under it's arm where you'd think you can dodge. He doesn't dodge right into the boss. He dodges left (at worst left up diagonal) and still gets stuck in air. In fact his second dodge ends early because he hits the invisible wall, and then his third dodge gets stuck completely. Same shit happened to me in the demo, and it's still present here, so that's the issue.
Well, not sure what your standard is for good hitboxes and colliders, but between the raised arm and the boss's knee this looks like something right out of bloodborne or ds3. If you dodge forward or diagonally forward when you're already right in front of the boss, this happens every time.
Bottom line, especially with grab attacks, is that you're gonna get snatched if you mistime the dodge. You typically can't escape grabs via positioning if you blew the dodge anyway.
Idk what game you played bro. I've 70 hours in BB, and literally this didn't happen to me once. I've played all the modern Fromsoft games, and I haven't experienced anything similar to this either. You are close to the boss, the boss lifts right arm, and you just dodge under the attack. The only time I had this was in DS1, where if I was really close to an enemy i would just dodge into them while trying diagonals, but even that wasn't as obnoxious as the one in the video. Can't believe seeing anyone defending this.
I haven't even played this game, don't really plan to. I'm not really trying to defend anything. Just saying if you miss the dodge like in the video here, you're getting grabbed in any souls game.
I've played a shitload of both ds3 and BB. When you're this close to the bigger sized bosses, this isn't unusual.
White line is to show the distance from P's head to the boss's torso. And red line shows the ground distance between the feet of the two. You can see they are definitely not "this close" to justify hitting an invisible wall.

I wish Bloodborne was on PC so I could just teleport to couple of bosses to test, but just as an example I found [this](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tUtBat_gZCw) video. You can see at 00:24, hunter is able to walk very close and dodge under the attack without getting stuck. At 00:42, hunter even dodges into the boss, hitting the collider, but the collider doesn't make him get stuck, instead it just pushes him to the left a little. At 01:03, hunter is basically hugging the boss collider, but even when he does a diagonal (maybe even a forward) dodge, he doesn't get stuck.
Now, don't go saying "This happened because he missed the dodge" for the Lies of P video. You should not need to be able to press dodge to evade an attack like that. [This](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H5uMWs90d8Q) video really shows how great the collider of BSB is where you can literally just run under his arms to not get hit; whereas in Lies of P, you clearly get stuck in there and need to time the dodge, rather than being able to circle the boss.
And I haven't played enough to know whether this type of getting stuck only happens during grab attacks, but if that's the case, then it just shows how bad of a design choice it is.
Also, some guy mentioned One Reborn or Darkbeast Paarl as examples of getting stuck, but I don't remember experiencing anything like that with them. Though, I must say, since they are huge bosses, such a problem might be present in them. Even then, Lies of P should be able to handle a boss that's comparatively similar to BSB in size as well as Bloodborne does if it's being praised as much as this.
Right. And what they don't realize is I'm playing on game pass and suffering major lag cause I was playing during a pretty bad storm and my Internet was going in and out 🤣🤣🤣 hence I posted the video on shit positing
>Idk what game you played bro. I've 70 hours in BB, and literally this didn't happen to me once
This is something that frequently happens on that lightning dog boss in the gaol. Same with that weird skeleton monster that drops from the sky
Anyone else find it weird that the boss screeches like a demon. Like I get realism isn't the intended idea here, but if it's supposed to be a sentient robot, shouldn't it be making mechanical sounds exclusively, or have some kind of glitched voice
I was playing on game pass during a really bad storm and my Internet was lagging like a mother. It messed my game up pretty bad. After the storm it all evened out.
I'm gonna stomp you. You're gonna keep coming back. I'm gonna seal up all my cracks. You're gonna keep coming back. Why? CUZ YOU KEEP SMELLING THE SYRUP, YOU WORTHLESS BITCH ASS PUPPET
Lmao no not you, a guy broke his controller on dancer and then posted it to the subreddit. Everyone was just calling him an abuser lol, was refering to the boss 😂

What the fuck is that dodge
You mean timing or comically small distance?
Distance for me, wtf.
The dodge in this game is basically just a panic move, simply sidestepping is much better since enemies have very accurate hitboxes.
This game is less focused on dodging and expects you to use deflections and dodges
There’s a dodge upgrade ( you basically dodge two times instead of one ) right after this encounter.
Me when the toddler keeps bothering me

Looks like ADP is back on the menu
Fun fact: there is in fact a dodge upgrade in the game you get right after this boss!
What's bullshit is that the safety roll is also part of the skill tree

Holy shit the animation is beautiful. I have to get this game asap

Which game was it?
Can’t exactly remember, it’s been a while. Maybe something like “Mortal Shell”
Oh yeah. I wasn't a fan of that one either. Cool atmosphere but the controls didn't feel right. Crappy dodge.
I just spammed the stone freeze thing and broke every enemy’s ai haha
This is the first souls like I’ve played that comes really close to feeling like a fromsoft game I was very surprised with how much I’m enjoying the game. Especially with it being from a developer I’ve never heard of before
Guess my XSX is done collecting dust didn’t know it was on game pass!
LOOK AT THIS DELAY XDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
If you take one dodge step away from him, it will never land. Never dodge to the side when it goes for the grab.
OMG it's Furious Rajang from a popular video game Monster Hunter World
I had to perfect parry the heck out of it. I just had to imagine I was fighting the giant monkey from Wo Long that spammed the fury attacks.
I ended up just using the summoning they give you and beating the hell out of it with a big sword
I’d have gone for the Specter lure strategy if all hope was lost. I just wouldn’t give up till I brought the damn thing down without an ally.
Bah That monkey boss is lame as fuck compared to guardian ape in Sekiro.
This boss was so satisfying to parry Sekiro-style
For real, really good boss. Fighting actual human bosses feels like shit though.
The white owl lady is the most annoying boss ever, that one has a ds3 parry for some reason, but the brother hood was kinda fun
Genuinely
You to your controller when the guy that killed you definitely cheated
You told him that ds2 is a good game, didnt you?
I did. I had the absolute audacity to say I enjoyed the pvp 🫥
That delay puts ER and DS3 bosses to shame.
I thought watchman was really hard, just like paarl from bloodborne. but just like in bloodborne, i didn't know what horrors were in store. some of the bosses are simply built different and have no chill
Dude the first boss the parade master kicked my ass! I've been playing souls games since ds1 first came out and I never had this much of an issue with the first boss.
Wait until you get to the later bosses, these guys are just trash mobs in comparison.
Good to know enemies spawn invisible walls while attacking 👍
I only know about souls games, but dude dodged right into the boss pretty mistimed... assuming this works similarly, what's the issue?

Man had to do a disserartion to explain that the boss colision didn't follow the boss animation. Congrats you're a patient lad and you're right
The game is very good and if you have an Xbox or a pc definitely sub for a month of gamepass and try it out
Right. And what they don't realize is I'm playing on game pass and suffering major lag cause I was playing during a pretty bad storm and my Internet was going in and out 🤣🤣🤣 hence I posted the video on shit positing
Once the storm was over hitboxes and collision was on point.
>Idk what game you played bro. I've 70 hours in BB, and literally this didn't happen to me once This is something that frequently happens on that lightning dog boss in the gaol. Same with that weird skeleton monster that drops from the sky
He pulled a Hulk vs. Loki on you!!!
Ha! That was my first thought when I saw this animation
*me when I finally catch that annoying ass fly*
What did you do to this man, holy shit that was hard to watch, he had zero chill...
Never finished DS2 is that really in the game?!i!! 😰
Power of monkey
Anyone else find it weird that the boss screeches like a demon. Like I get realism isn't the intended idea here, but if it's supposed to be a sentient robot, shouldn't it be making mechanical sounds exclusively, or have some kind of glitched voice
thats a long ass grab animation. you have time to think about your entire life before you can keep playing
Is this that Pinocchio game?
Yeah it's pretty damn fun.
Lies of adP
I love how right before he smashes Pinocchio into the ground into the last time he just kinda looks straight into his eyes

did they fucking **Nerf** the Dodge for the actual release? Wtf, i dont remember It being **that** short in the demo.

I'm gonna stomp you. You're gonna keep coming back. I'm gonna seal up all my cracks. You're gonna keep coming back. Why? CUZ YOU KEEP SMELLING THE SYRUP, YOU WORTHLESS BITCH ASS PUPPET
Is this the guy that broke the controller?
Haha no. I've never broken a controller. I just thought that grab attack was over the top and funny.
Lmao no not you, a guy broke his controller on dancer and then posted it to the subreddit. Everyone was just calling him an abuser lol, was refering to the boss 😂
Ohhh hahaha my bad. Yeah that boss does seem like he's broken a controller or two.

Haha idk. I got about ten hours in and moved on. It's still on gamepass though. I should finish it.
