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?

Sekiro man, what a ride...Celebratory wine is blowing this way out of proportion though XD. buut, my past self didn't think I had it in me so... Yay.

Fucking great game, the difficulty needs some serious demystifying... It was not nearly as tough as I expected. That said, this felt sorta like a trial run...

Here's to the completed playthrough, and many more to come, cheers!

An additional note:

I bursted out laughing during final boss phase two, I seriously thought the

Tap for spoiler

"Glock Saint" moniker

was a community joke! XD

It's so gutsy and visceral

It certainly can be, a couple of times it felt like I was playing bloodborne! I'd say this game's worth a serious try. Get yourself properly set up, I'll be your personal cheerleader!

I did finally upgrade to a projector that does tolerable resolution and response rates, have been steadily chewing into my backlog ever since. Currently trying to finish AC6 after putting that on hold for a few years as well.

Bloodborne is even deeper in the queue, and I've been admiring it from afar for several years. Same issue, I've always been more facile with slower or more forgiving From titles.
