I've been interested in picking up this game for a while now but the Souls-like reputation I kept seeing attached to it gave me pause every time.
However, it's now going to be one of the PS Plus August free games and I'm curious to read some opinions others in Offtopic who've played it may wish to share. So.........thoughts?

Lives up to the Soulslike feel that those types of games have. I prefer the gameplay (fighting-wise) of Lies of P over Souls games. Whereas Souls games feel like almost every battle has you at the disadvantage, Lies of P levels the playing field by giving you more options to counter (parrying, “FP” is gained by attacking, flasks recharge by attacking when you are out). The game works with you rather than against you to defeat bosses and progress.
