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?

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

Oh, man. I've got to start cracking a bottle of wine when I roll credits on a game. What a wholesome idea! Good on you!

Congrats dude, not out of proportion you classy bastard.

This is still the best game of all time imo. It goes hard. If you think it wasn't hard enough, you now have gauntlents to try.

...Out of proportion? I would have a celebratory glass of wine just for having made time to try again with this game.

Every year or two I dip back in and get curved hard. It's so gutsy and visceral, I love it but I lose my nerve. Part of the problem was using a fuzzy weak projector and I couldn't read anything. But that's an excuse, it's mostly that I get flustered. Even I admit it's a game design masterpiece though!
