How effective are the changes in the Lies of P update?

Although the bug fixes and resolution of PS4 and PS5 controller issues are great to see in their own right, the balance changes to monster encounters and especially boss fights will likely be the most welcome.
In the original release of the game, as stated in our own Lies of P review, the sharp difficulty spikes to the boss battles stated above were one of its greatest issues – due to it feeling like Lies of P was going back on its appeal of greater accessibility for new Soulslike players.
In this writer’s opinion, who personally struggled for hours trying to get past the Fallen Archbishop Andreus boss, balance changes like the nerf to its HP and that of other bosses should make Lies of P altogether a much more fun experience for all.
That’s everything you need to know about the Lies of P patch notes and everything in update version 1.2.0.0.
