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?

No matter how you have beaten the boss as long as you have done it in a legal way.

I don't think killing people is legal

Being a cop shouldn't be legal

If the most compelling case for your position is that it's not illegal...

There's definitely elegant and cheesy ways to win a game.

In a souls game a win is a win. Unless you're outright cheating anything goes. You wanna poison a boss for ten minutes, go ahead. And when he still nails you at deaths door and make you repeat the process, even better
