Soulslike - Discussion, News, Memes
This is a community for discussion, news, and memes pertaining to the video game sub-genre "soulslike".
Given Lemmy's size, the definition of soulslike may be treated relatively loosely. While games like the numerous FromSoft titles, the recent Star Wars Jedi games, Lies of P, Nioh and similar games should be the focus, games that incorporate soulslike elements - like Hollow Knight and Blasphemous, for example - may also be discussed here.
Basic Lemmy-quette applies. Additionally, since flairs don't exist yet, please do make sure to include a marker to denote what game your post is about in square brackets for clarity's sake. An example could be:
[BB] This enemy is so difficult!
or
[DS1] Anyone struggling with the gargoyles?
Friends:
Should you have any questions, please do let me know.

Dancer of the Boreal Valley is one of my favourite bosses ever. Her introduction cutscene and overall design is just peak. Creepy and menacing, the veil and the slouchy walk. Badass dual swords. The spin attack.
On my first play through I went to the Dancer instead of Vordt and proceeded to face plant like 50x into the boss before beating it.
Then turned around and one shot Vordt
I love that the spin has a timing to it, so that you can't just spam roll.
