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?

I dunno. The only wrong way to play Elden Ring is to not go find stuff

Oh man, i did using the rotting dragon glitch. Now I feel like starting again. Because I feel little over powered and miss struggling and excitment.

I need to replay it because that Seamless Co-Op mod I was harping on about broke the final NPC invasion fight. Guess we can both make another attempt with a new approach

Go into the DLC, no matter what level you are it WILL make you feel weak again when you start it
