Soulslike - Discussion, News, Memes

1324 readers
78 users here now

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?

[Meta] I've created a Discord Server AND a Matrix server for us to hang out on! (discord.gg)

I feel like we have a nice community on here that is quite lively and chatty, so I thought why not give an additional space for like-minded people to hang out and chat on!

I actually went through the trouble of making the server look somewhat decent, but this is the very first time I'm doing this, so do definitely let me know if I should do something differently and let me know if you have any tips.

I'd love to see you there, and I hope you'll enjoy your time!

Edit: Right around after I launched the server, Discord decided to shit the bed, so we're also offering a Matrix space as well. If you're not on Matrix yet, creating an account is similar to how you'd create your account for Lemmy: you choose your host but can interact with all the other hosts.

Join my space /c/Soulslike https://matrix.to/#/#soulslike:matrix.org

Both servers are active, so you're welcome to visit both!

Sorry I've only just seen this, I use both Stoat and Root mainly but there's Fluxer chat too, I'd look around see what's best for you

Hey, if you're still interested in joining, we've set up a Matrix server as well. We're still testing things, but it seems to be working quite well, a couple people have joined already. :)

Is there a bridge between the two servers or is it just one big headache of split conversations?

[–] v4ld1z@lemmy.zip 1 points 4 months ago (1 children)

We have a bridge set up between their individual General channels. Works quite well actually

Neat, good to know! Also I guess you've settled on Matrix now but fwiw there is also a Discord-Fluxer bridge now if you want other Discord alternatives for the future.

Honestly, Matrix has been working well for text but we can't figure out voice calls. Some Matrix programs allow for that right out of the box, others (like Element) don't regardless of mobile or desktop access - it's kind of a mess, really. Maybe checking out yet another platform might not be a bad idea. Although voice chat isn't the focus of the channel but being able to just chat to one another, it's definitely annoying

[–] Coelacanth@feddit.nu 2 points 4 months ago (1 children)

I know we're on the Fediverse and all but I never really saw Matrix as a real 1:1 Discord replacement. Maybe it'll get there one day though, who knows.

One can hope :)
