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.

Pretty much. This is my favorite genre/game developer but it has 100% one of the most toxic fan bases. But I guess that helped cement for me that the game is it at its best when I'm not engaging with it in a way that involves letting people tell me how I should play. Also it gave me motivation to finally start invading people and do unspeakable things to people who play naked or follow build guides.
Hope you get to enjoy your playthrough though. There's so much more to these than just difficulty and I envy you getting to see it all for the first time
