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
I hope this works because you just stopped me from going hollow if so
It does, yes. It's not a super obvious one to find, on your own, and it still takes almost a minute. But it's much better. Here: video guide.
Oh, that's a longer route than I did. The one I did, you don't have to fight anything. Let me see if I have a DS1 save with that area cleared..

I don't know where's a good place to upload anonymous video for free, but here's the route I usually take: https://www.viddler.com/UFko4q . Looks like they added some AI slop to the caption, heh.
It's a little sloppy because I haven't played in a few years, but thanks to steam's cloud saves I had this character ready to go.
You take a little falling damage, but I think there's a ring for that. You don't have to fight anything so long as you run past the ghosts.
