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?

Shit what did it used to be like? I've only played the Scholar of the First Sin version.

The spells used to be about 3 times faster and the aggro radius was nuts. It more bullet hell than souls like. You just had to book it straight through.

Deserved for using opera gx

Shrine of Amata isn't even as gnarly as people make it out to be. You can't dodge the biggest, brightest, slowest moving projectiles in the game?

It's not that hard but it is very annoying, especially if you struggle on the boss since iirc there is a single bonfire in the entire area ?

Maybe I've just been broken by the run up to Blue Smelter Demon. That is, hands down, the one I hate the most in any game.

I think that's a DLC I didn't do. Honestly ds2's dlcs broke me, most of the bosses had some annoying/hard mechanic for solo players. I should come back and finish it one day

I’m not saying I haven’t smashed a controller before but posting it online is kinda cringe

I can't afford to smash controllers :-<

Same. I could never understand how someone can be so out of themselves to break stuff they know costs quite a bit to replace. Just bang your head in the wall if you're that angry.
