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?

There's lots of motivations to replay any game: the gameplay, the story, completionism, a feeling of home.

For me it's usually gameplay first but closely followed by completionism, actually. I adore the gameplay of Sekiro, Bloodborne, Lies of P and Khazan, and that was usually the driving factor for me to replay the game. However, I am a bit of a completionist, so it's also alluring to me to have a platinum trophy in my collection to be fully "done" with a game.

What about you?

Oh I see. Am I the only delinquent who talks about non-soulslikes in this community? Maybe I am, hah.

Also very relatable. The backlog is an ever growing obelisk that is starting to blott out the sun for me. This is my constant state of being:
