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?

Are rumors fair to share in this community?

The translated excerpt from the leaker, previously known to leak Elden Ring details before it's announcement:

“From what I know, The Duskbloods was greenlit even earlier than the marketing period for Sekiro’s release. It is the FromSoftware title that has spent the longest time purely on gameplay prototyping and validation among all of their games so far. Although it’s PVE and PVP, it reportedly contains many innovative elements the team themselves are very proud of.”

I still hate that it's a Switch 2 exclusive, even though I have a Switch 2 from pure chance.

I don’t really want a Switch 2 but my love for Fromsoft eclipses my distaste for exclusives

I own a switch 2, partly for work obligations but also was kind of sold on DKB in combination with my mild curiosity for duskbloods, especially after being pleasantly surprised with nightreign.

I do hope they fix their networking stack a bit as match making was definitely the most annoying part of ER: Nightreign.
