** The fact that your invisible "Humanity" stat resets at the start of each New Game+ run is not too frustrating on its own. Unfortuantely it noticeably handicaps the secret InfinityPlusOneSword, the Golden Lie, as the weapon's strength and range are influenced by your Humanity stat and it cannot reach its full power until just before the end of the game.

While this does balance the weapon for new runs, it also prevents it from being viable in the New Game+ difficulty, as Humanity is rarely earned in comparison to standard upgrade materials for every other weapon.

** With Creator/FromSoftware's suite of games, including ''VideoGame/DarkSouls'', ''VideoGame/SekiroShadowsDieTwice'', ''VideoGame/EldenRing'' and, of course, ''VideoGame/{{Bloodborne}}''. ''Lies of P'' is considered one of the best SoulsLikeRPG games ever made, not only retaining the feel of much of Fromsoft's output but also matching it in quality (even ''exceeding'' some of it depending on who you ask).

As such, some people consider it an honorary member of the series despite not being developed by Fromsoft.

* FriendlyFandoms: With ''VideoGame/AmericanMcGeesAlice''. Both are dark [[FracturedFairyTale Fractured Fairy Tales]] action games, and since the latter franchise has been dead in the water for years now, fans happily welcomed this new attempt at a similar thing in the medium.

* SpiritualSuccessor: Appears to be one for Creator/FromSoftware's beloved ''VideoGame/{{Bloodborne}}'', drawing on the gloomy atmosphere, tight environments, quick gameplay, and minimalist HUD, along with other Soulslike staples like dropping all of your currency upon death. This is particularly the case for fans who think that Sony and [=FromSoftware=] have been negligent with such a beloved IP, as they have shown no plans for a sequel or even a port despite them being highly requested.

Also as Spiritual Adaptation of sorts...
** Centered around a fictional pseudo-European city of late 19th century, but incorporating both ThePlague of medieval era and futuristic SchizoTech powered by AppliedPhlebotinum, and mixing {{Steampunk}} with eldritch horror, the game's setting is pretty close to {{VideoGame/Dishonored}}. The P-Organ even looks similar to [=The Heart=].
** As a nightmarish FracturedFairyTale with creatively reimagined [[PublicDomainCharacter public domain characters]] and macabre, disturbing monster design, Lies of P is basically a cousin franchise to VideoGame/AmericanMcGeesAlice despite being more realistic in terms of setting, visuals and story.
** Being two of the darkest mainstream adaptations of Carlo Collodi's tale, Lies of P and WesternAnimation/GuillermoDelTorosPinocchio have more than a few similarities, from a rather gruesome interpretation of the Undertaker Rabbits to [[spoiler:Gepetto having a dead son named Carlo and making Pinocchio/P as a ReplacementGoldfish]].
