Lies of P: Overture will be shadowdropped today

If my last save was before final boss can I easily access this or do I need to replay from scratch?

How far into base game to access?

Is there tutorials to ease folks back into the game if I opt to load my old save?

It's been years idk how to play this anymore.
 
Anyone having issues with their PC completely shutting down? I entered the DLC area and when the enemies come towards me my pc shuts off. This will be the third game in about a year that has done this, after POE 2 and Spider-Man 2.

Soft or hard shut down? Is your PSU dying?

My PC completely shutdown twice while trying this game. I do think my PC hardware is fine (please.....), as usually when something like this happens I'm not the only one, especially like the other 2 games mentioned. I have uninstalled it, deleted everything left behind tied to the game, reinstalled, tried again, and it actually let me play. I could only play for like 10 minutes, but I'm hoping that helped.

I only posted here as I had seen other having issues and even different issues related to Unreal Engine 5 errors and was just looking for some of you folk's input. I'll probably play more soon and update this message.

Sounds like overcurrent protection tripping in the PSU if it's a complete shutdown.

Sounds like a possible power lead not fully operational or something loose. Try and get a new power plug and change socket.
 
I looked at the game yesterday because it's half off on Steam, but held off because I can just pick up a complete edition later after DLC and patches are done.
 
It looked like there was a bundle for 29.99 for Lies of P base with the DLC. I just got off from a 12 hour shift and drank a little bit.
I got the DLC, because I already got Lies of P and am close to beating it.
 
I can't justify paying that much money(base game+dlc) just to play the DLC of a game I previously played for "free" on gamepass. Removing it from gamepass right before the dlc release is an interesting strategy. I was actually willing to pay just for the dlc. Good luck neowiz.
 
That first zoo boss… are you serious game? The area was very doable playing fully maxed ng+ end game char but this? I am not lowering the difficulty

Edit: done. KILL WITH FIRE.

surprise ruined.
seriously. Leaks should be forbidden. Especially before an event
Click to expand...

Yeah. If you have a leak a few weeks to the event? That's fine, shows you've got skill and insider info.

Dropping a leak a day to the event? thats just being shitty
 
Oh I put that work in when this originally released lol

I'm amused by the new difficulty options, guess it's a win for those who can't git gud. About to dig into the DLC, hyped!

The entry is next to the first stargazer in ch5. Some new tutorials but it's a deep water dive, everything hits like a truck
 
I have but one question for the people already playing. Exploration? If it's another hallway I'm definitely going to wait.
 
Someone should have told his monkey ass that I'm King Kong up in this piece 🦍:



Love being back in this world but how is it that there still isn't a dynamic HUD option? Seriously Neowiz, get with the times, I don't want all that shit obscuring my screen outside of combat and blocking the beautiful environments.
 
Do I have start over to access dlc?

Edit: I'm in new game plus and now I have to make it back to chapter 10 just to play the DLC. I have to come back to it.
They should have just released the DLC as a seperate mode.

idiotic to release dlc so long after game released.... forcing to replay the main game.
So much time passed, it should be standalone

It's a souls game so it's the same as any Souls game entry and just like another recent Souls game,had the same release timeframe that Shadow of the Erdtree had...did you have the same energy with that as well?

Seems like you're searching for a game that is not Lies of P.

Well you are right.
I skipped shadow of the erdtree for the same reason.... even though I have endgame save for that.

With dark souls games, at least you looked at replaying 20 hours long games to get to the dlc, Getting to dlc in elden ring is a long time.
Lies of P is too difficult to just replay for me. It was traumatizing lol

I do agree,the runback to the ER dlc area is pretty brutal compared to other Souls games. Lies of P has an easy mode though so if it's too difficult you have that choice now.
 
Bow is lit:





A zoo is such a fantastic location, makes you wonder why more games don't use it, only other one I can think of is Army of Two and it was the best mission in the whole game. Kangaroo bro was like a god damn boss lol, what are they feeding the animals in Krat?

Hard shut downs shouldn't happen from a game like that, If I were you I'd "rent" a power supply from Amazon.
 
Alright, 2nd main boss is no joke, even with the help of [REDACTED], DLC continues to be god-tier 👌

Edit: figures that right after posting this I beat him 😂

90% it's the hardware problem. No software should be able to power off your pc.

You can play the DLC as long as the base game is still on Game Pass

Lies of P is no longer on Game Pass

No shit. The developers obviously purposely released the DLC after pulling it. So it forces millions of gamers to buy the base game and the dlc. It is scummy as hell. If I have the save file, I should be able to access the DLC. This is pure greed
 
With the weekend almost over, it managed to beat it launch CCU by 50%.

Although I had played it when it launched on Gamepass, I decided to play it again. So I got it on Steam.
And it's well worth it, as it's a great game.
 
How are the difficulty options? I played this on gamepass and enjoyed it but I could not get the hang of parrying - its my weakest point across all Souls games....well all games.

Does the difficulty impact the parrying windows or just damage and number of enemies?
