Soulslike - Discussion, News, Memes

717 readers

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?

Anything new you're picking up? Any playthroughs you're finishing?

I got nothing right now, guys. Been busy playing Disco Elysium this past month or so and now I'm moving on to Planescape Torment and other PC games. Nothing souls-related, tho.

What about you?

Distro hopping. I have installed 4 distros in the last 24 hours. I am going insane but I cannot stop. I am typing this as a new OS is being downloaded.

This is pretty much how I feel while playing souls games. Beating my head against a wall, trying new things and failing each time. Eventually, I will find my dream distro.

Get a good thumb drive, install Ventoy on it, then load it up with different linux distros.

Ventoy is a tool that makes bootable thumb drives that support as many different images/isos as you can fit on the drive. When you boot to a Ventoy thumb drive, you’ll get a GUI that you lets you select which image you want to boot from.

This makes it simple to quickly test or install a bunch of different distros. Better yet, any distro with “live image” support can be run right off the thumb drive without needing to install it first.

Nah, i was asking by what rules the topic starter estimate and compare different distros. I'm fine with my Arch and don't want to change it
