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 am currently playing Nioh.
They gave me something Fromsoft never did: a kunai and chain weapon. And it fucking rocks! ๐
I'm also still working on Nioh, although Doom: The Dark Ages seems to be taking over for the weekend until my coop partner returns.
Now I sort of want to try the other weapons, in classical Souls fashion I went for the biggest sword straight away.
Are you playing DOOM on PC or console?
PC. On the last chapter right now.
I got both 1&2 a few months ago and have been thinking about trying the first one since I don't have anything to play right now. How do you like it so far?
It's frustrating lol
The stamina system takes getting used to and it is very mean about how much actions cost and with how being hit also drains your stamina. It took me way too damn long to get through the first level trying to get used to the Ki system.
It also is less about doging and more about blocking, which coming from Fromsoft's games is the exact opposite playstyle I am used to ๐คฃ
