“We are definitely open to any sort of consideration in the future.”
“I’ve tried [Nightreign] and it was very refreshing and new,” he said.
Overture is the forthcoming expansion to Lies of P, revealed at Sony’s State of Play last month.
The expansion is the completion of that.
How, then, could the Soulslike genre grow and develop in future?
“That’s something we discussed internally quite a bit,” said Choi.
That was a fantastic array of experiences I had where I developed further respect for those wonderful games.
That became a very important pivotal point for my perspective.
Moreover, it’s providing a complete experience along with the base game.
“We never really saw the development of Overture as a separate entity,” said Choi.
We just couldn’t do that earlier on."
What, though, about difficulty?
FromSoftware typically develops DLC that raises the challenge level of its games - will Lies of P follow suit?
“So we made a game that satisfies both segments of customers.
Our prioritisation is more focused on the overall game experience.”
