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.

Oof, On a fresh save? Whack! Sounds like it's scaled for after beating the main story? Or do you need to go back to the base game to beat the final boss? Anyway, you can do it, I believe in you! as you said, there's also the difficulty option to avoid the level grind.
Yea probably, sorta. If you want to access the DLC as soon as it's available, there's a pop-up notifying you about the potential high difficulty at the current stage of the playthrough. So maybe they want you to go into it on NG+, but even then there was the same pop-up. Maybe it's just always there?
In theory, you could play through the entire game up until NP and then go beat the DLC. As long as you do before finishing your playthrough, you can go there whenever.
Thanks :D I'll have to weigh my options. I think the enemies drop more ergo too - maybe I can find a farming spot there so at the very least I can stay in the DLC and don't have to travel back and forth.
Have you decided if you'll be buying it sometime soon?
Well, I do realIy want the dlc Hehe. Money has been tight but I'm going to be doing an artist alley thing next week, and if that goes well then I'll get it as a treat. Fingers crossed.
That sounds awesome. Best of luck!
