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.

Glad you killed that defenseless old man.

Now off to Drainglaic with you the emerald heralds toesies ain't gonna suck themselves.

Gwyn ? He didn't seem so defenseless with his fire and his sword and whatnot. But I am not sure I did anyone a favor by killing him and his cronies.

Well, he's quite parryable. I would say he's the single easiest enemy to parry in the entire game.

So if you avoid his lil grab you can confidently no hit kill him without even rolling.

BUT THATS NOT IMPORTANT; THIS IS

Yeah okay, didn't even try to parry him. I just blocked my way through him in the end. Which was way easier than trying to dodge him.
