Rules:
- 1: No spam or advertising. This basically means no linking to your own content on blogs, YouTube, Twitch, etc.
- 2: No bigotry or gatekeeping. This should be obvious, but neither of those things will be tolerated. This goes for linked content too; if the site has some heavy "anti-woke" energy, you probably shouldn't be posting it here.
- 3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

In the whole EldenKingsSekiroSoulsBorne catalog? Or are we including similar games and expanding to EldenKingsSekiNiohLiesOfSoulsBorne catalog of games?
Seriously, I don't understand why we don't just refer to this genre similarly to games spawned by Rogue
Is that not what soulslike refers to?
It often feels like that label has been overused to the point where any game with dodging + slow combat movement is automatically a "soulslike", no matter whether it's like an actual Dark Souls inspired game, a visual novel or a racing game...
Time to introduce SoulsLite for those then.
I intended that as a joke, but I'm wondering whether that might be a viable idea now
Roguelike or roguelite?
(Sorry, had to 😂 )
