On the one hand, yeah and if you're the kinda hardcore souls masochist who loves a bullshit challenge, this is why you typically want to play these games early. On the other hand, Lies of P was especially tortorous at later parts of the game. I myself dropped the game, and I know many others who love soulslikes who just couldn't stick with it as bosses became walls of HP.
People will stroke their e-peen over this just like I stroked mine over beating pre-nerf Radahn in Elden Ring on day one, and people will also agree in like 4 years time that the initial release had problems and needed this patch to fix them.
At what point does the difficulty spike? I only got this game last week and have just beaten Fallen Archbishop Andreus. So far the game has been pretty easy for me, compared to Elden Ring and Demon’s Souls which were the first souls games I played. I’m loving it so far but I was expecting a bigger challenge
