Soulslike - Discussion, News, Memes

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?

A WARNING: Tunic is extremely spoiler-sensitive, and it's also very good. I recommend not reading much about it if you're interested.

Anyway, Tunic. Cool game that I played a couple of years ago. I was surprised to see several near-explicit Dark Souls references in it (the tearstone rings and bells of awakening, particularly) beyond just the more obvious gameplay similarities. Anyone else here tried it out?

Tunic is an amazing game. Definitely go in blind as much of the fun is discovering all of the secrets in the game, many of which are hidden in plain sight. The use of the old school game manual is chef's kiss for both creativity and nostalgia and remains a constantly important tool. I don't think i technically 100%'d all of the hidden stuff but I was really close.

I'm just now discovering it!
