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!

[DS1] Anyone struggling with the gargoyles?

[News] Hollow Knight: Silksong Difficulty to Be Toned Down Following Player Feedback (www.pushsquare.com)

However, some have criticised Silksong for being a bit too punishing, as its typically faster pace pushes you to be even more focused.

In particular, the title's tricky opening hours have been catching some players off guard, and that's what Team Cherry's looking to address via the game's upcoming patch.

It'll feature a "slight difficulty reduction in early game bosses Moorwing and Sister Splinter".

I haven't kept up with news about the game. Is the game that difficult compared to Hollow Knight?

I'm not far in enough to have more than a few tools and ~~crests~~ edit: items (I only have one crest so far), all I'm saying is that coming to Sekiro from DS3 felt deliberately limiting with the same basic idea as what I'm seeing so far.
