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!

[DS1] Anyone struggling with the gargoyles?

[Discussion] Which Soulslike will you be playing this weekend and do you ever play Soulslikes with mouse & keyboard? (lemmy.zip)

The first Dark Souls PC port is notorious for being borderline unplayable with a mouse and keyboard unless you tweak the settings or use plug ins, most just used controllers for ease of use. With later versions of the game, m&k controls seem to have gotten better. Fast forward to today, most PC versions of modern soulslikes allow for both control configurations while still usually suggesting a controller.

Which do you prefer? Have you tried playing with m&k?

Salt and Sacrifice, and absolutely not.
