Glad to see there are other people who has hope and passion for this game. I like this game to bits but it really needs a lot of polish. But with how much commitment and passion hexworks has shown so far, I do have the confidence they will pull through.
I'm so happy you decided to do a video on this game's PVP, you're the perfect person to show off its high highs and low, low, Mariana Trench lows: the host-based, borderline occult netcode; the parry spam that makes Bloodborne blush in embarrassment; radiant builds; the lack of matchmaking; and the multiplayer "scaling" which produces invaders who feel like Elden Ring password phantoms on their 3rd Tren cycle. Coming off of Elden Ring, I'd forgotten what if feels like to crystal / sever out of invasions because it would be ethically indefensible to kill the host. But despite all that, you can occasionally catch a glimpse of LotF PVP's potential, whether you're parrying and riposting your third dual Pieta's sword invader of the day (who only takes 40 damage from your attacks because of "scaling") or having an honest 1v1 between 2 melee characters. I'd love to see a world where more of that potential shines through.
@@AZAELinvadedPlease return!! I think you'll be pleasantly surprised with the state of online play now. We need this kind of charming editing now that the game is playable online lol
Man it's so good to see another upload from you! This video is so funny and had me dead because every time I seen that time rewind I can't help but remember when I did a drop attack that teleported me back onto the wooden plank before putting me in the middle of the room to die. I love how you make the PvP look so good and fun while not ignoring the glaring problems. Also wanted to ask before I leave if you decided on a video to send to jjjacksfilms? I'm curious about what your own personal choice is as a favourite if not one of them at least. Also the way he shows them are randomised so you aren't in a long waiting list and have as good of a chance as someone like me who sent a vid on the first day.
Heyyyy thanks man! I wanted to do at least a video on LotF, because I’m really enjoying the game, a great PvE experience. And yes, the PvP could have been so much better… btw, to answer your question, I decided to send my second Crimson Dragon video, the sequel. I decided mostly on how I did the editing for that video and because it doesn't have copyrighted songs, which I know it could be an issue on streaming.
@@AZAELinvaded Ayyy that's great man I'm glad you are enjoying pve at least, my friend keep on jumping between other games I need him to help me dup in LotF. And it's really good you sent one in, I can't wait to see it on stream because I know people will love the video style and jack will have good things to say but yeah I'll check it out myself it's been a while since I watched crimson dragon. Btw I rewatched, great video choice it's amazing and I am sure people on stream will love the video and jack will have good things to say.
seeing this makes me feel like i oughta give this game's content another shot. lots of cool weapons and spells here i didnt get to see, and if theyre improving the game it might be worth another playthrough
The PvE is just awesome, honestly. No need to hold back for that one, maybe only on Series S I know about some hard performance issues. Ps5 is not perfect, but it’s playable for sure.
I just had PTSD flashbacks to every single invasion I've done and they are exactly the same even that crazy framerate hell You are dead set on making me miss my hammer 🔨 lol
i hope level based matchmaking comes pretty soon, i am tired of invading and being invaded by some super high level player that takes less than 10 damage regardless of what hits them
Some of the footage I saw made me think it was literally unplayable but I suppose it depends on the platform. Said footage was probably from PC *sigh* but then again, streamers like Oro were on PS5 so I don't know. Don't have the game myself yet but I'm glad at least some people can have some fun out of it. Devs' attitude seems promising from what I can tell though, hope it gets better.
It could have been so MUCH better man, such a shame. It's criminal that they released a game with a multiplayer in this state. The PvE is fun as hell and the game itself has a lot of replayability, lots of builds, top tier fashion a fun mechanics. I love it.
Exactly mate. When it works! I got invasions every two or three days. When I get though, the phantom hits rule 😂 What is more, could u tell me if the meta lvl was determined?
Thanks! I put a lot of effort to show (the very real) both sides of this PvP. It could have been SO MUCH better than this. But unfortunately it has some glaring issues that just destroy any attempt. I still sinked 200 hours in this game tho, I love it.
great video, as usual. thanks for covering Lord of the Fallen. I haven't played myself (potato PC can't handle it), but I have heard pretty much everywhere that its a fun game with great ideas, but the PvP experience is severely lacking - and that's on top of massive connection issues. I hope the devs can pull a bit of a No Man's Sky and fix this game, cause it seems it could be a nice alternative to Elden Ring otherwise.
Oh man…what a shame. The game is SUPER fun. Lots of great ideas, the Umbral world is very cool and functional for exploration. The world itself is very reminiscent of how Lordran works, with a big emphasis on interconnections between areas. The best map of a Souls like, for sure. Pulse, armor designs, weapons and spells variety….awesome.
Yeah. Pretty much. So much missed potential. When it works we get a tiny view of great gameplay that rivals Elden Ring. When it doesn't work you become the pinball.
@@AZAELinvaded For sure. I would still be playing it if the connection was better. I'll probably go back to play some pve, but the pvp is keeping me from going deep like with Elden Ring.
I’m just getting constant auto save stutter at moment which is ruining game .. the pvp would be great if they fix online play rather than focusing on buffing and nerfing items
Yeah, autosave stutter is horrible on PS5, never experienced something like it. Apparently the PvP connection issues are tied up to how Unreal Engine 5 works, so…I don't about any real fixes on that front.
meanwhile onlywaifu is trashtalking elden ring because of its pvp, these youtubers talking about "fixing" elden ring dont pick other games for comparison before spam disinformation
@@AZAELinvaded for sure It needs, but makes me Sad hear from onlywaifu things like "i dont know How this game Win Goty" only because of "latency" or "unbalanced weapon". The game isnt even PvP focused, Its obvious some weapons are better than others, and you cant Control the conection of your opponent. Fromsoftware made lots of patchs that ballance the game
Oh, that's true. FromSoft put a lot of effort to balance the game pvp experience, more than any other past games, for sure. Also, with the expansion we'll see finally a "complete" product and only after that we'll be able to judge it for its entirety. @@joaoaugustonunes6591
bringing me back to when I stumbled upon dark souls 2 pvp videos pre souls-addiction and had no fucking clue what was going on
I have no clue either lol
Representing tarnished with raging wolf set + bastard/iron roundshield combo like a promotional material is great
It was a no brainer
‘Tis Elden John
Fingers crossed the devs can improve the online play; I’m a huge fan of this game and would love a chance for stable coop with friends. 🤞
For real…it's such a shame they release a game with a multiplayer system in this state.
is there some ranking or something like tha some presistence in this pvp stuff?
everyethign else is single player?
Glad to see there are other people who has hope and passion for this game. I like this game to bits but it really needs a lot of polish. But with how much commitment and passion hexworks has shown so far, I do have the confidence they will pull through.
They finally released an autosave stutter fix on PS5. God bless…

agreed with everything but parry "spam". That's a skill issue bozo
Thanks! It was important to show both sides honestly. It can be a great and fun experience and the worst PvP you’ll ever have lol
I really like the intro! Also the video is great!
hey man! thanks :D
I don't need mental health, i need a functional online system in this game
What a shame, I’m so sad
I hope you can give this game another go now, after all the patches that they did
I will at some point! I genuinely loved the game, both PvP and PvE, and I didn’t have the chance to try the latest updates
@@AZAELinvadedPlease return!! I think you'll be pleasantly surprised with the state of online play now. We need this kind of charming editing now that the game is playable online lol
It's about time you will upload
this is not my job, I upload whenever I can edit something meaningful and enjoyable
I really look forward to your videos. Every time there’s new AZAEL I know I can’t miss it.
Thank you for the support my friend 🫡
That rubberbanding makes fromsofts netcode look like a gift from the heavens sheeeeesh
We did not give enough credit to FromSoft
I will say as of present day of me posting this PVP is better than where it was plus new DRIP 💧
I heard that Oroboro was saying that they almost fixed the PvP entirely. I am kinda curious.
@@AZAELinvaded it far more consistent with stability and performance
Editing is wild man oh my god
Thanks 🙏
I had fun with it, I did some different stuff
Man it's so good to see another upload from you!

Devotion Might best hammer in gaming
@@AZAELinvadedI put that on the ERDTREE
@@AZAELinvadedI need to make another comment thank you for summoning that dog it's so bad 😅
Azael starting his creepypasta ARG ark
i hope level based matchmaking comes pretty soon, i am tired of invading and being invaded by some super high level player that takes less than 10 damage regardless of what hits them
Yeah…a lot of times I just straight up one shot them or they oneshot me.
1:26 majestic sync
Thanks!!!!
It took a decent amount of tries to get it right :)
Nice music choice man :)
Thank you! I’m always happy when this video gets some views/comments. Lords of the Fallen PvP could have been a great experience.
If stability was possible, this games pvp is so good. The potential is immaculate
incredible potential, 100%
Online is more stable now!
What if the eochaid warrior apear

1:45 2:34 2:55 4:30 Some analogue ass horror 😭
I tried
Bro, you're the god of fashion
This game is INSANE for fashion souls, really one of the best EVEN compared to FromSoft
the king back at it again 🎉
2:28 what sword is that
Mine or opp?
Best LOTF PvP video I’ve seen yet 👏
Ayyyy thanks!
The rubber banding and latency make LotF pvp unplayable. Back to waiting for ER's DLC.
Unfortunately…yes, most of the times
Ngl the Flickering Flail with a certain armor set is entirely broken
It’s a shame this game handled the PvP connections they way it did…I loved it so much
Oof, haven't seen framerates like that since trying to play Crysis on the family computer. 😂
Exactly mate. When it works! I got invasions every two or three days. When I get though, the phantom hits rule 😂
What is more, could u tell me if the meta lvl was determined?
No, apparently they just match you with whatever and scale your character down. It does not use a level based matchmaking system like From games.
🙃
Have they fixed the balance now for pvp so those at lvl5000 can take damage, or are they still super tanky?
Yeah, level cap still doesn’t exist. I don’t know what they were thinking.
I’ve been saying it’s such a good time! World full of tarnished unwilling to give it an honest try. It’s buggy as hell but super fun.
The PvE is AMAZING. The game has super solid game mechanics and lots of original ideas.
The PvP is…well…a mess.
the editing nice job
is the pvp working...acceptable now? cuz thats 1 reason i stopped playing lol
It’s a mix bag…you could get a somewhat fun experience, or completely garbarge, as you can see. they are working on it, we just have to wait…
@@AZAELinvaded dam so I guess imma wait lol
Peak humor lol love the vid
Thanks :)
Are bows viable for pvp?
Honestly I don’t know! I didn’t played too much with those at the time, and now the game has gone through several patches and fixes.
My pvp connection is sht😑😑😑
Only AZAEL could make the PVP in this game. Look fun while also being honest about the PVP in this game.
Thanks! I put a lot of effort to show (the very real) both sides of this PvP. It could have been SO MUCH better than this. But unfortunately it has some glaring issues that just destroy any attempt.

I miss WKYK
Damn i'm tired of games getting released half made.
…yeah, me too.This game needed at least 6 months of polishing.
Yeah. Pretty much. So much missed potential. When it works we get a tiny view of great gameplay that rivals Elden Ring. When it doesn't work you become the pinball.
Such a shame that a very good pve game like this is dragged down by its lackluster multiplayer system. The game is so much fun.

Cool name
Funny editing, but I was really disappointed by PvP in this game
Thanks!
Yeah, such a shame
Great vid but I don't FEEL the fun 😢😮
That’s fair!
This rarely does PvP right unfortunately:(
So they hired riot games Balanced team for this game huh
It's a mess…yeah…

they wont be able to fix connection in multiplayer because unreal engine 5 is dogshit at netcode
Yeah…I’m afraid so. But I’m still hoping for a better online experience overall.
This game virtually looks like a shit version of of the souls games... This game is slow as fuck and the souls series is slow!
One of the problem of this game is that is unnaturally faster both in attack animations and running animations. What are you even talking about? 😂
the 2014 one is the slowest one
