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?
Friends:
Should you have any questions, please do let me know.

(Ive only played fromsoft) Controversial take probably but elden ring. I just really didn't care for the massive map which ended up feeling pretty empty to me.
I'd probably have to go for Elden Ring too for similar reasons. I see the appeal of the game and I've liked lots of it, really, but the open world was just a huge turnoff. I do see myself liking the open world if I don't spoil the contents of it beforehand, but overall it's just not my cup of tea.
Maybe Demon's Souls, but at least that one was more of a classic soulslike and was the game to kick it all off
