Lies of P has become easier with an update that shrinks bosses’ health pools

The developers behind Lies of P have taken community feedback seriously and made some changes to the title to make it a bit easier than it was.

Lies of P has not ignored the criticism that pointed to the high difficulty of some of its big bosses, specifically those that have several phases in the same fight. The developers have since released an update that reduces the health of the most commented, among other corrections that outline a somewhat different experience from what players found at its launch.

In addition to what has been mentioned, the reduction of the star fragment item drop rate (the one used to summon an NPC ally in boss fights) is another welcomed change. Until now, its appearance was much too common when killing common enemies.
