Soulslike - Discussion, News, Memes

791 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?

Since I've never tried out randomisers or Nightreign, I'm curious to hear your thoughts on Nightreign now, because that sounds like you are basically describing the NR experience

i was a big fan of it around the first batch of everdarks, have since fallen off and intend to come back when it's content complete (and i can pick up a couple copies on sale for friends)

it's a vastly different solo experience but scratches a similar itch. the main difference is playing to a time limit vs just competing against your own performances. obviously can't really compare the team play.
