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.

I just started Lies of P so I nominate the Mad Clown Puppet on that burning street before the opera house.
He is a dick. This is one of the few occasions I would use throwables to whittle down his health as he approaches. If you're really desperate put the gun arm on and get the upgrade to slowly regen legion so you can shoot him and run away, wait and repeat. Otherwise you got to really learn his telegraphs, so you can parry most of his stuff but just circle around his belly bust to get a couple swipes in the back. Anything with electric damage helps too of course.
I hit him with 5 thermites and 5 of the electro throwables. Good night sweet miniboss
