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.
It's nice that they give the franchise another chance after the disaster of a launch the previous entry had. I really enjoyed it post-launch when most issues were fixed.
However, looking to "appeal to the mainstream" sounds like it might backfire and become a game for nobody. I'm cautiously optimistic for now.
Also, it's Epic exclusive so they can wake me up once it hits Steam or GOG for half the price.
Yea kind of a nothing-statement, I agree
Not exactly "new" news, but I thought I'd share nonetheless given LotF's recent 2.0 update. Will any of you be checking this out?
Once they fix the co-op issues I will, it looks interesting.
