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.

First playthrough I go through it blind because you only get to experience it for the first time once. Make mistakes, do what you want.
After that look up whatever you want because there is much less risk of spoilers, and stuff you will probably miss otherwise.
This is exactly my approach too. I love that these games will let you miss stuff; it makes what you do actually find after you go pull on threads all the more rewarding. After that, well I've had my exploration fun, if I liked the game enough to play it again then it's time to go see what I missed
Hey! Did any of the exquisite corpses got completed?
I think it was just the two of us, I'm afraid! However I have little else to do this evening and I want to see what you drew, so I think I'm gonna go in and finish some of them. I'll post them in this community and tag you once I do
Then I'll finish the rest and add them to the comments ;) I also want to see how they turned out! maybe other folks will get inspired :P
This is my approach as well. Unless I get the advice of doing so, like with thw DS1 dlc. I for sure wouldn't have found it.
