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?
Friends:
Should you have any questions, please do let me know.

i wasn't a big fan of SOTE
loved the story and lore but the gameplay was pretty poop
I really enjoyed SOTE but I'm just not a fan of how they did progression. Just finding items that increase your damage and defense was kind of boring compared to the main game where you made complex builds. It also made replaying the DLC kind of a nightmare because you have to run around collecting fragments before doing anything else.
But exploration was fun and so were the bosses IMO :)
some of the bosses were pretty dogshit though.
that guy on his boar, and the final boss were both awful
FWIW they did nerf the final DLC boss heavily over a month after release, he's now fair and you can dodge his previously undodgeable attacks.
Boar guy is ass, I'm with you on that one. Luckily he's totally optional at least.
gaius is basically a deflecting hardtear showcase. absolutely piss easy if you just play him like a sekiro boss.
i played all of sote in first person so i might be a bit biased
was mostly fun tho
