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.

My least favorite was Resident Evil Village. I kept dying during one part because I hadn't played a console shooter in forever (and there was a glitch causing the game to be black and white but that's a totally different topic). The game asks "You wanna lower it to easy?" Sure. Why not. Lonakd behold, you can't bump the difficulty back up once you do and I didn't want to play through hours of content again. Horrible design in my opinion.
