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!

[DS1] Anyone struggling with the gargoyles?

As an attempt to consolidate the few specific soulslike communities and to offer a general discussion space for people interested in this genre of games, I've created this community.

Feel free to stick around, post something, check out the other communities.

Recommendations for 2d soulslikes? (lemmy.world)

Preferably on the easier side, especially if 3D. I had a grand old time figuring out the openings in Deaths Door and am hopeful I can pick up Titan Souls soon. Is Another Crab's Treasure as decent for a warm up to soulslikes?

What I liked about Death's Door is that it was simple enough to figure out how to level up, maneuver, and time mechanics so that it didn't slow me down from discovering more of the world or progressing the plot. At first it felt too difficult, but lasting longer through the hard fights was actually fun. I felt a short sense of accomplishment getting through each major fight. And when I felt like I was hitting a brick wall, I had a way to enhance stats. I'm currently stuck practicing the boss fight on the umbrella challenge.

I've watched videos of Dark Souls, and I can tell it's not for me. In MHW, though it's not a soulslike, I'm forever stuck on Deviljho - I've never been able to solo it, only carried. @.@ 'just mentioning it for skill reference.
