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
That's really what's been getting me. And now the Undead Merchant has stopped carrying Transient Curse so idk what I'm going to do lol
How are you routing to the boss right from firelink? If you opened the large gate to the valley of the drakes in New Londo, I recommend entering that way. You just run past Blighttown's exit. It really minimizes how much you have to interact with the ghosts.
There's an npc in new londo ruins that sells unlimited transient curses. You have to reach the top of the buiding that's across the second bridge, before you unlock the elevator to lower new londo ruins.
(If I also recall correctly the ghosts also drop a dagger or sword that can damage them without the need of a curse)
My instructions are shit sorry :P I'll try to get you a screenshot something.
