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.

People be like "it needs an easy mode" but the easy mode is there if you want it
I mean yeah but also no, I'm not the target audience for an easy mode but I can imagine that they don't want to run out of their consumables and throwables and have to go grind for half an hour to have another boss attempt just so they can continue with this "easy mode"
"Easy mode" doesn't even make use of consumables. You just use the strongest, fastest weapon and overlevel your stats so you can just spam 1 button the whole time and win.
Fellas is it easy mode to use a strong weapon and engage with levelling up
Yes!
It's so easy a caveman can do it!
Unga bunga!
Personally I'm of the opinion that playing a game someone else made is easy mode. Especially if you're using hardware someone else made.
I think it's a tad more nuanced but I get the sentiment
