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.
Disregarding lack of time, that is. Is there any particular mechanic you were not fond of? Was a game too difficult for you? Was it the overall enjoyment of the game?
Pic totally unrelated :]
Lords of the Fallen (remake) just felt a little too floaty to me. I might have ended up liking the game if I gave it more of a shot, but the very first boss was enough for me already. Maybe I'll get back to it at some point, but I doubt it
Sekiro: I guess it's unfair to say that I started, it wouldn't run on my video card beyond the intro.
DS3: I beat it but I had just run through DS1 and 2 and was too burnt out by the time I got to the DLC.
Elden Ring: multiple save file corruptions. Probably would have pushed through anyway but my video card took the whole rig down and now it feels too daunting to start over from scratch.
Bloodborne: Rom, the Vacuous Spider. Enough said.
Oh, there's another:
Ashen: stopped being able to schedule game times with my co-op partner.
