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?

A movie where the main character works like how a videgame character works would probably be pretty interesting but someone probably made a horribly boring version of it already...

Yeah, there’s a couple. Few off the top of my head, I’m sure there’s more.

Hardcore Henry (2015)

Boss Level (2020)

Free Guy (2021)

Boss Level and Hardcore Henry are both definitely worth a watch, imho

It’s straight up bad game design.
