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 am really bad at this game and never played a metroidvania before at all, I have died like 30 times to lace but managed to beat her. Everytime I need to buy something more expensive than a map (50 beads) I find my self farming the in the scummiest ways possible because I can never save up the beads for it from dying too much, every single boss fight with the exception of the first 2 have been extremely frustrating to me, I somehow really struggle to use the diagonal attacks at all in part because I am can't even get consistent at them (i miss about 10% of time) despite knowing exactly how to, the pogo sections on those pumpkin things are an absolute nightmare I spent 1.5+ hours to get from extremely bad at it to just very bad at these pogo sections
I feel the same way about everything, and I aced Lace. It's not about difficulty, it's about being frustrating.
Still enjoy the game though.
