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 first played the Demon's Souls remake a couple of years after it had come out. All through the first couple of worlds I ran, I would often notice the same ghost player (based on their appearance) basically in lockstep with me, we seemed to be on the same schedule for when we played and progressing through the game at the same pace.
I've always wondered whether seeing a ghost player in Souls games means that they can also see you at the same time. I hope you can because it was just deeply satisfying to feel like I was in the same game as this stranger from who knows where, a silent companion exploring this deep, dark, dangerous world alongside me.
