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'm currently finishing up Chapter 9 of Lies of P on my current run so I can go to the DLC again. Playing an Advance build, which I've never done before, and am looking forward to trying out the new Advance DLC weapons.
Silksong has been lain dormant for the past week. Didn't get much time to play because school started again and the stress kicked in full speed. :<
What are you playing? It's Spooktober and many are replaying Bloodborne right now. Are you?
I've recently started watching a let's play of Elden Ring from a few years ago by a guy who I watched play the Dark Souls games blind. It's made me want to jump back in. I'm playing using only fire incantations (and maybe dragon ones too for damage type coverage), the first couple of hours have been pretty fun, but I've only done a handful of minor dungeons and stuff, I haven't even made it to Stormveil yet. No idea how people manage this legit without hacking in infinite FP.
