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.

You know what works stupidly well? Get the biggest shield in the game, and a poke weapon.
You can poke through Malenia's self-heal. It takes a little longer than dodging, but it's far safer.
Consort Radahn with a big shield is a joke. Took 4 minutes, two tries. The first try failed because I didn't see where he was coming from when he did his nuclear sky bomb attack.
