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?

For me, it's probably a toss up between Sekiro and Bloodborne. I've finished the games in their entirety probably around 4-6 times - either for their respective endings, just for fun, or trying to do a challenge run, like a BL4 Bloodborne run. Lies of P follows them closely at around 4 and soon 5 once the DLC rolls around.

Bloodborne and Sekiro were my first two soulslikes, and once it clicked, I was obsessed with both. I got platinums, watched video essays, listened to the OSTs all the time. They're very near and dear to me.

What is your most-played soulslike?

The story combined so well with the gameplay, I love it. So I've stayed away from Hades 2's early access so that I get the full experience the first time I play it.
