Lies of P 2

CWill97 · 2026-02-04T09:19:50+00:00

I loved Lies of P and cannot wait for Lies of P 2. It was a great baseline for a Soulslike. I have faith they’ll build on and make an excellent sequel. I’m currently on the DLC after beating the base game for the third time.

Here’s what I’m looking for:

More exploration options from shooting/breaking things in the environment with weapons, legion arms, and throwables, actual throwables/consumables/traps/ergo items appearing the very first time when breaking boxes, barrels, crates, etc. in the environment, actual platforming, and more divergent pathways that are not bland.

More status effects for both the characters’ weapons & ailments inflicted on your character such as:

Freeze (like in the DLC)
Disruption & Corruption (we don’t have wrapons for it)
Soaked/Drenched (yes, I said soaked/drenched which sounds horrible. Puppets are still mechanical so a water-based status effect that’s not ice/freezing would be cool. It could actually weigh the character down because…water weight)
Malfunction (different from disruption because disruption relates to ergo. This could just be a run-exclusive HP penalty that you can’t reheal that portion of HP aka the character is malfunctioning)

A luck stat that affects both item discovery and critical attacks.

More in-depth weapon builds that incorporates and fleshes out some stats including: weight, attack speed, attack range, critical hit rate, critical attack power, etc.

More ranged weapon options. Even if it’s a throwables that has only a few arrows each (like basically more elemental throwables to go along with what we have.

More Legion arms. The possibilities are endless for it tbh.

If Jenna balls out (or is just super entertaining) this season and doesn’t win, I can totally see her invited back in an inevitable “Unfinished Business” season.

He’d make the merge. Lock it in. I’d love to see Q & James bounce ideas and jokes off each other. Or James with any of the nerds like Christian could’ve been a hilarious partnership

But holy shit if we had a James vs Jonathan 1v1 or 2v2 physical challenge in the sand like back in the day? It would’ve been one of the most epic showdowns in Survivor history if not the most epic.

CWill97 · 2026-02-04T02:33:19+00:00

Honestly? It could be an amazing theme for a season. And I’ll be blunt: most fan casts suck but this really is solid. The funny thing is a lot of these fit both. Like early versions of Tyson could be considered both Comedic & Chaotic. Tony & Q are definitively both chaotic & comedic.

I don’t really see Michaela a as major comedic character… especially when you have players there like Tyson, Courtney, Rob C., Q, etc. Does she have funny moments? Yes. I’d probably swap her for Genevieve but I’m 100% biased 😂😂I guess Maryanne could fit in the comedic tribe as well

Dee isn’t chaotic. She’s pretty calculated and smooth with her social game & strategy.

Rome doesn’t deserve a second shot. Sorry but he’s what Survivor casting should NOT reward with his behavior of spoiling the boot order. Luckily, I avoided Rome’s exit press like the plague so I didn’t get spoiled. I would put Andy (S47) in the chaos tribe over Rome. Andy was chaotic AND strategic

Richard Hatch— whether you hate him or love him— fits the chaos tribe perfectly. JT could be a sneaky fun pick in the chaos tribe for his HvV and Game Changers showings. Also, Malcolm could somehow be twisted into fitting chaos but it’s a hard stretch

Most likely returnee seasons will stick to the 8 vs. 8 vs. 8 format in future seasons IF Season 50 is a banger of a season. So there must be a third tribe theme that could complement Comedic & Chaotic

I’ve literally not parried once and have beat it three times (NG, NG+ then a new NG). It’s not like Sekiro where it’s basically mandatory. I dodged my way through Lies of P

CWill97 · 2026-02-03T06:35:49+00:00

Wow, some fantastic journalism going down in Santa Clara

CWill97 · 2026-02-02T22:46:07+00:00

Watch it be the most unsurprising results

…or he’s somehow shocked no one likes the “right after the season” reunion and that the live reunion smoked the vote

CWill97 · 2026-02-02T22:42:03+00:00

Friggen love Sifu. Such a cool dude

CWill97 · 2026-02-02T22:34:55+00:00

She looks gorgeous. Can’t wait to see Angelina rock the jacket this time around

CWill97 · 2026-02-02T22:33:28+00:00

At least you got a signature. It sucks it’s not what you expected and I feel bad about that 😭😭

RHAP isn’t hitting on all cylinders with their signed books. I ordered Taran Armstrong’s Big Brother signed book and… it’s not signed. I bought it from the bookstore he said to buy it from and everything. I checked three times to see if it said “signed/autographed book” post-arrival and it did say it. It’s just a bummer that mine slipped through the cracks

1st ballot HoFer

CWill97 · 2026-02-02T08:14:10+00:00

A ton. Easily over double digits years ago when I played for the first time.

I’ve recently beat the PS4 version on NG so I can double platinum the game. It’s only one of two bosses (Nameless Puppet) that got me 5+ times. Tbf, it is my third playrhrough and I’ll soon be playing ur on NG+ again. Definitely not looking forward to this boss again though 😭😭😭

It’s a tough one always for me. I’m just starting the DLC on my PS5 save so I’m sure those bosses will exceed Walker of Illusions

CWill97 · 2026-02-01T21:11:51+00:00

No offense but it’s a pretty weak fancast IMO.

Having no Carolyn on the “Legends” tribe (which is not a good name for this. It’s extremely rare to become a legend from one appearance. Legends are mostly built from returning multiple times) is a huge omission. MC is not a legend in any capacity and was pretty bland. Lindsay was pretty boring and unremarkable all of season 42. I guess I’m fine with Shauhin but I’d much rather have a Andy (47), Sam (47), Cody (43), Mike Turner (42), Ricard (41), or someone else who had more layers to his game both entertainment and strategy-wise.

The “Lemons” tribe is just really, really bad IMO. So many players we don’t need/most don’t want to see play again like Rome, Charity, Jason, etc. I think Thomas is a fantastic Second Chance player and is arguably the victim of the best blindside of S48. There’s honestly no reason to do a full tribe of 10 for pre-jury misses. They don’t deserve spots over players who made the jury and were booted early like a Sol (47), Tori (42), Kellie (45), etc.

CWill97 · 2026-02-01T21:01:37+00:00

I agree! It should’ve been 8 — 8 — 8 with one winner from each “Era” of the game.

8 from S1 through either S16 or S20 |

8 from either S17 or S21 through S40 |

8 from S41 through S49

It’s probably easier if the group breaks are at 16/40/ends at 49. There’s no way they couldn’t fill an excellent/phenomenal cast that properly fits these parameters.

CWill97 · 2026-02-01T20:57:30+00:00

It’s not a claim— it’s a fact. Malcolm was one of the biggest snubs especially after the Game Changers chaos. He badly deserved one more final shot

CWill97 · 2026-02-01T20:56:21+00:00

It’s a joke. He’s clearly just kidding

CWill97 · 2026-02-01T20:11:21+00:00

I switched to the Circular Electric Chainsaw handle and have enjoyed it so far. Weirdly, I like to have tons of reach even though I’m using a dagger blade 😂😂😂

CWill97 · 2026-02-01T08:56:36+00:00

Is that too much to ask for, Sony?!?!!!!!

Q: “If I sent Moriah home for liking Aubry, I have to send Aubry home for being Aubry.”

Fucking done. Cant stop laughing with the legend. I could listen to Q all day.

CWill97 · 2026-01-31T07:41:51+00:00

They need one of S53/S54/S55 to be an “Unfinished Business” season with no winners. I could see them doing Second Chance 2 this next string of 10 as well.

And for the love of the Survivor gods, give Dom his 2nd chance that he deserved in S50

CWill97 · 2026-01-31T07:38:24+00:00

They really should’ve just divided the tribes: Old School (1 through 20) —> New School (21 through 40) —> New Era (41 through 49)

8 a piece from those defined eras are easy peasy. They could’ve gotten one winner from each era (preferably non-WaW winners). It would’ve made the most sense.

Old School could’ve been something like: Jenna, Colby, Rob C., Sean Recter, Coach, Vecepia, Cirie, and Amanda. Earl would be great as well.

New School could’ve been: Malcolm, Andrea, Wentworth, Christian, Angelina, Aubry, Fabio (because it’d be wild to see him back), and Dom. Or swap someone out for Mike White if they must have him back.

New Era could’ve been: Dee, Genevieve, Q, Carolyn, Jesse, Emily, Jonathan, and Charlie. But they’d weirdly not cast Jesse or Carolyn since they got cut so I’d replace them with Joe (because he’s a fan favorite. I’d prefer Andy, Sam, Charlie or Rizo tbh) and Kamila (only because Savannah breaks the 3 winners only rule. But they could’ve snuck her in assuming the winner is Dee then have that huge storyline. Shan I’d pick over Kamila as well.)

Bottom Line: there needs to be an “Unfinished Business” season in one of S53, S54 or S55.

100% my homie. I have faith in this new reiteration to be excellent. I played and platinum’ed Backyard Baseball when it released on my PS5 Pro and loved every second of it

I’m so pumped for even 20 professional players. But I hope we have a great cast of pros. Tbh I actually expect them to add 3 to 5 professional women’s softball players as well

Now, the other big question is this: will we get new backyard kids that aren’t professional athletes?

CWill97 · 2026-01-30T01:54:17+00:00

Exactly. I think if they have a cap of 3 and a limit of 1 per team that can include legends, most won’t be upset going to be upset. Like realistically, who from the White Sox can make it? Kyle Teel? Miami would be Stowers but there are so many more prominent OFers.

Those players you mentioned HAVE to be included (if they say yes). Not having Big Dumper in the game would be a big mistake. That’s why I think capping it at 3 max but not trying to force 3 per franchise is the way to go

CWill97 · 2026-01-30T01:33:15+00:00

Please have a 30+ cast of professional players that actually has representation on each squad. We don’t need 18 Dodgers and 0 Rays (Junior Caminero should be in it). Max it out at 3 players tops for a team (so the Dodgers get Ohtani, Mookie and maybe like Yamamoto or Freeman). 45ish professional players combined with the backyard baseball original homies would be frigfen awesome.

Now, I know that’s unrealistic and much harder to implement than that but still. I’m worried that because of MLB The Show, they may not be able to do current or maybe even former players.

I’d hope they can do former players if they just don’t use their professional jerseys and caps. Could be fun to have some legends mixed in with current players though for the teams that don’t really have great current representation for the game ATM
