Soulslike - Discussion, News, Memes

740 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?

Sometimes people don't have a lot to be proud of, so if they beat a hard game at a handicap it feels big to them

And they feel that people who have a subjectively easier experience have taken an unfair shortcut to glory THEY rightfully won

It's a ridiculously toxic attitude and part of the reason the world is slipping into fascism

But you will just meme and sanewash as the world burns around you
