Lies of P, the popular fairytale spin on the Souls-like genre just got its newest update.
Lies of P’s latest game changes are making 4 bossfights more bearable.
The 1.02 patch was recently released, and it contained balance tweaks to Lies of P’s enemy mobs and stagger mechanics, as well as new controller features. But what stood out the most were the HP reductions done to some of its biggest encounters.
Counting both phases of the Simon Manus boss encounter, the new patch made 4 of its most notable bosses weaker by lowering their HP.
Numerous balance changes and other system changes have just hit the live version. On top of that, bugs and other known issues were addressed.
