Soulslike - Discussion, News, Memes

782 readers

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?

My first Fromsoft game I ever completed and only the second souls like I ever played. My emotions are all over the place.

No, this was my first attempt. But the two golden bros almost had me walk away :p

Neat! Me, it took three attempts at picking up the game from scratch to make it through the whole thing. It's the biggest criticism I have, the barrier to entry is massive.

It is really is. I also felt really lost arriving at Firelink with the only instructions being go up or down...
