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?
Friends:
Should you have any questions, please do let me know.

I mean, maybe it's the type of content you're watching? The way it's presented? Or maybe it's the subject matter in general?
I get what you mean when it comes to length though. I've watched/listened to some very lengthy videos - think like in the 2-4h range - which I've had to pick at over the course of several days. It was nice entertainment during the time listening to the audio, but I've barely retained anything, I've recently realised. I still look back fondly to some of the videos, but ultimately, I didn't "grow intellectually" from listening to them, if that makes sense. Then again, if it entertained me at the time, it served its purpose, right?
I'm just wondering: what's your post got to do with soulslikes? Unless I'm missing something here :D
"but I've barely retained anything"
Yeah, and I feel that the impact isn't the same, but maybe I'm just getting old...
