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?

99 Arcane is my favorite. It's super fun and versatile. A fire Whirligig saw just wrecked beasts lol.

I cast "Summon: Glock"

I should really give bloodtinge and arcane a try. Only ever played traditional builds thus far over my handful of playthroughs

Same... I've only played through twice, years apart, and both times were basically the same Dex (Skill) build.

Yea same pretty much. Beasthunter Saif, Cane, Blades of Mercy were some of my runs, so all Skill thus far too :D

I think both times I wound up with Blades of Mercy and also dressed like Eileen the Crow. It just looks too cool to pass up...

Hell yea, that was my preferred look too. L Plus the BoM are just awesome to play with

full bloodtinge with the chikage is my favorite build for BB, it's pretty bonkers.
