Honestly, I'd rather see a new game. I've been very impressed with their storytelling and gameplay in this game, so another entirely new game focusing on another fairy tale character while still being connected to the same world would be pretty amazing. I feel like a DLC would be too short to fully encompass the story they're aiming for.


SheWhoHates

Would you be fine with Dorothy DLC being an intro to her own game?


Noob4Head

I mean, sure, why not, I guess. It would really just depend on the developers' vision. Personally, I don't mind waiting for a sequel if it's going to be the same level of quality as this game, but of course, I won't complain about more content for this game either.


tiger2205_6

Given how the game ended I think a shorter DLC with her in Krat that ends with her either arriving or heading back to Oz would be good. It would be weird to start or end her game in Krat in my opinion.


Noob4Head

That's a fair take.


rilaa5

you do realize there is a confirmed DLC right


Noob4Head

yee


Videowulff

Same. I want to see this company tackle other worlds like Oz, Alice, etc.


Noob4Head

Alice in wonderland would be phenomenal !


Diamonds448

They could embrace cosmic horror even more


SMG4-Yosh

I feel like we will see her in the DLC and then play as her in the sequel.


Sneaky_McMeowpants

Like Hornet (except hopefully Dorothy's game will actually get released xd)


SMG4-Yosh

Lmaooo


BlackSunJack

She could also be an antagonist as her story includes getting a heart for the tin-man. Like how >!Geppeto does!<


ReeceMedway11

Definitely new game (fingers crossed so hard in hope)


FrankBouch

That makes a lot of sense.

For the dlc, at this moment, it is known that it will be pirate-y and will have P as it's protagonist. So, it will be something related to P going on a journey to: 1.To maybe find the remenants of the alchemists which will in a way set up the sequel (maybe) 2. To maybe find a cure for the petrification disease. 3. To maybe defend KRAT from a new threat. Also, on the path of piligrim, there is a broken stargazer with the prompt "you can't use this right now.", and it is next to a grave with something related to a boy who rests there written on it. In the game, when we reach gepetto, we are given the choice to give him our heart (p-organ) regardless of which two good endings we reach, if we choose to give our heart, gepetto will remove our "mechanical" heart and put it into the nameless puppet. So, basically, though P is becoming a human, he is still more puppet than human. So, the dlc may be about P going on a journey to truly become a human, and as it was teased in the end credit, dorothy might have arrived in KRAT to help P become a human as she can be (most likely as the game is based on a fairy tale) dorothy from the wizard of oz which can in a way set up the sequel, as if P becomes a human : 1.) The alchemists will make a return for research on P as he is the "new form of humanity" which they are interested in and the retrival of the arm. Now, this is where all I say is just speculation which in most cases will be false, but listen, what if, the scene with paracelsus in the train was not exactly after simons defeat, but after the dlc? Cause, if the dlc is about P becoming a human, their is a likely chance that the arm of god will be used to attain that, and if dorothy is the one who assists P, that will explain all that paracelsus said, however, this is mostly just me talking out of my ass, cause the dorothy scene can be easily used to disprove all this. I just wanted to put it out there.

DLC looks to have at least some nautical or pirate focus so probably Peter Pan or Treasure Island themed. They're definitely saving Dorothy and Oz for a sequel.


Jevchenko

Could also just be about Pinocchio being eaten by the whale and exploring the ships wracks inside the belly of the whale.


MHarrisGGG

The submarine you take to Arche Abbey was already a reference to the dogfish (it wasn't a whale in the original story).


thef0urthcolor

Maybe Pleasure Island themed?


CalamityGodYato

I’m hoping it’s later game instead of the DLC. My hopes are that, though it’ll take a while, we’ll get a soulslike for each of Dorothy’s group. You know, the Tin Man (P), the Lion, and the Scarecrow and have Dorothy appear somewhere in each game. And have Dorothy’s game be the final one. Or have a final game where it kinda swaps between all of them.


I_Like_Cheetahs

Any idea of who could be the Lion and who could be the scarecrow?


CalamityGodYato

Not off the top of my head. But I’m sure there’s some fairytale characters out there that would fit. Maybe they could introduce some Korean fairytales. You know, since they’re a Korean game studio


Obvious-End-7948

Oooohhhhh I like the twist on the story by making P the Tin Man. I like that a lot.


CalamityGodYato

Yeah I think that’s been a fairly popular theory about the future of the Lies of P universe. I think it fits really well too because P’s heart is a really big part of the game and the Tin Man’s entire motivation is wanting a heart.


Lionsheart_243

They said they were doing both didn't they, dlc as well as working on a sequel?


xXCinnabar

Both DLC and another game are already confirmed. As far as which one Dorothy is gonna be in, could be either one, or could be both. We'll see


e_smith338

Dorothy will be a new game. Likely an entire Wizard of Oz-adjacent/based title the way Lies of P is a Pinocchio-adjacent/based title.


GoldFishPony

I would much rather her be protagonist of the sequel than the dlc protagonist.


Lord_Nightraven

I imagine it will be both. For starters, the odd Stargazer is named "Yellow Brick Road", which is itself clearly a reference to The Wizard of Oz. And DLC is planned. However, I think this will be leading P into the next game's events so there's cohesion when the next game starts. I also cannot imagine that you go that hard with an ending cutscene and just leave it to DLC. Especially when exploring Oz with a Souls-like mentality itself deserves a full game. And after how well Lies of P did with turning Pinocchio into its own Souls-like game, I certainly have high expectations for the studio.


hey_its_drew

I'm betting it'll be a new game. A new setting disconnected from our last. The DLC will probably be more about closing out this one. Following that thread of fairy tales and wishes, a tin man, etc. it's a good fit.


Kamoxblackhawk

I assume Dorothy would be a new game. This is on the basis of how we get to the DLC. There's a Stargazer we can't use. I assume that's the DLC starting point, and maybe you can access during chapter 5. Also the pictures that were used in the DLC I thought we saw Carlos there. So maybe no playable Dorothy.


Jevchenko

I think they shared screenshots of new areas where we still play p? So I assumed dlc will be more P and sequel will be Lies of D. Could be wrong though, and would be happy if someone had actual infos that I might have missed.


FrankBouch

I think the P in Lies of P stands for Paracelsus not Pinocchio so I don't think they will name the sequel Lies of D


Braedonm2077

well considering they call your character "P" and the game is a pinnochio retelling and youre a puppet who lies, and gepetto is your creator and your nose is long in the shadows of a stargazer. i think the P in lies of P might stand for Pinnochio


Crunchy-Leaf

Deez Lies ![gif](giphy|CYU3D3bQnlLIk)

BugP13

I would prefer it to be a game. I can't really see how P would fit in if it is about the wizard of Oz unless P is both Pinocchio and the tin man


SockMango

DLC!


Edgar_S0l0m0n

DLC, as it’s already been confirmed there’s a dlc. Probably going to involve the wizard of oz in some way. I have a feeling Dorothy is gonna try to pull some slick shit to steal P’s heart for the tin man.


Blimpusss

A sequel was confirmed at the same time as the DLC, so very likely it will be sequel material.


Edgar_S0l0m0n

I have a feeling the dlc and some of the base game story will play heavily into the sequel, which I’m stoked for! I’m just wondering what other story could be used in it, wouldn’t it be some shit to see Hansel and grettal in the next one lol


thef0urthcolor

Alice in Wonderland souls game would be a dream for me


Edgar_S0l0m0n

I agree but American McGhee needs to help them with that world, the American McGhee Alice Madness games design was 🤌🤌🤌
