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.
Immediately upon booting up the game for the first time, I thought to myself: "This game needs a swamp area or I'll sell the game." I was not disappointed :]
Fortunately, it wasn't super long, although tedious because of enemy density, and the boss was manageable for once.
Really funny to see how much FS's design choices permeate and sculpt the genre
Every soulslike needs a poison swamp, some bare feet, and at least one femboy
