This summer, the highly acclaimed Pinocchio-themed soul-like game "Pinocchio's Lies" will launch its first large-scale DLC "overture".This DLC contains 25-30 hours of new plot content, new bosses, new areas, boss liu mode, and controversial difficulty settings.

This decision to "add simple difficulty options" is directly inconsistent with the game director's statement in 2023 - at that time he said without hesitation: "We think soul-like games should not have difficulty options." This change, coupled with the "self-abuse" game preferences of soul series players, has caused considerable controversy in the release of new features.

Historically, hardcore soul players have always opposed any changes that reduce the difficulty of the game.This attitude has continued from the beginning of the birth of the soul-like soul--even in "Eldon's Ring", some players still strongly oppose the use of the summoning mechanism.Now that "Pinocchio's Lies" has confirmed the difficulty option, the soul purists naturally objected and expressed dissatisfaction with this decision.

"I love soul games because they have achieved a perfect balance from the beginning. Players don't have to worry about the difficulty of choosing, the game itself is what it should be."

What was initially praised by Pinocchio's Lies was its balance—a subtle balance between difficulty and accessibility.Many players believe that the challenge of the game does not come from the enemy's exaggerated health, imba attacks or difficult action patterns, but from the level design itself, and the need for players to understand the environment and enemy attack prompts.There is a view in the community that the addition of the "simple mode" will undermine this core design and even "deviate from the original intention of the game."

Some players pointed out: "Many games have simple/normal modes that are often just right, but the hard mode is just 'normal mode + 3 times health', which will make the otherwise excellent game boring and slow pace."

Some people also said: "I love soul games because they have achieved a perfect balance from the beginning. Players don't need to worry about the difficulty of choosing, the game itself is what it should be."

Although some players expressed dissatisfaction on the grounds of "destruction of balance", some people hold different views.

Some players said: "I hate the difficulty option. I want developers to present the complete experience they envisioned - if you want the game to be relaxed and casual, I accept it; if you want it to be challenging, let it come over and show your creativity." Some people lamented that reducing the difficulty will make players lose that "heat-blooded moment of accomplishment" after defeating the key boss.

Anyway, as the old saying goes: you just need to focus on your own handle operation.Others choose simple difficulty and will not affect your gaming experience. It is better to see more people enjoy this one of the best games of 2023.
