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?

Would you play a soulslike set in the LOTR universe? Maybe using Talion from the Shadow of Mordor/War series would work well for that since he's kinda sorta immortal and keeps being revived

How about something like the The Surge 1&2? I haven't played either, but I think they're set in a dystopian post-apocalyptic world of sorts? Not sure it's exactly sci-fi but something along those lines
