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.

Even Stormveil was a cool first legacy dungeon. Choice of paths to take (albeit one of them just makes it harder and more boring), so many nooks and crannies to explore.
TBH, most legacy dungeons aren't that hard to just beeline it if one wanted to (Haligtree maybe being the one exception) but the fun comes from all of the extra stuff to see and do in there.
Stormveil is fantastic, yeah. I would say that the second half of it is a lot less linear too. Once you've beaten the grafted scion it gives you far more options. You can dodge the troll altogether and never meet Nepheli, and there's at least three ways to approach the main gate from the inside
