Soulslike - Discussion, News, Memes

1205 readers

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?

The comment in the image is about the Lamenter from SOTE which, I have to say, was NOT my favorite horrible little man boss.

Personally I liked Onze since I just didn't expect the boss to be a tiny demihuman, nor did I expect said tiny demihuman to kick my ass. Plus his sword and lore are pretty cool.

Does the first phase of Midra count? That’s one of my all time favourite bosses (though definitely because of phase two, which at that point isn’t really a horrible little man but it counts).

A cursed fragile looking self flagellating corpse that eventually beheads itself? Yeah I think that counts as a horrible little man even if phase two is a literal god lol

I’m glad you agree.
