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.

What? DS2 was way more finished and polished than DS1 on release. There's not a single area in DS2 that is even half as bad as Lost Izalith, and even the Kiln of the First Flame is clearly an incomplete work. And let me not even start talking about Anor Londor giant empty spaces with zero substance and stupid ass areas that make no sense. DS2 was a finished game on release, they even changed stuff up for the NG+. You don't do that unless your vision is pretty much done.
