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.

Ah too bad. I would have got my 15 minutes of fame, if only it had been to explain it with Sonic the Hedgehog.
Go on...
Well, it all starts with Sonic and Knuckles having a quick one behind the shed after the episode where they get the stuff back in the thingamabob. Tails, we thought, was a happy bitailed fox, but somehow we also knew he dreamed to become a hedgehog one day. Or at least a porcupine or a pig with bad hair. Witnessing the scene broke something in him and he fully realised that he could not be happy and make another spiky animal happy with his physique (which was not necessarily true!)
