Soulslike - Discussion, News, Memes

1182 readers
76 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?

I'd have to look it up, but I think we've had that before, actually

I don’t think we’ve actually had that topic in a weekly thread. I can’t remember it, and I’ve just used the search function. Unless nobody in the whole thread used the word 'cheese', we really haven’t had it before.

This is what I had in mind, posted by yourself even :D https://lemmy.zip/post/55625046

Ah, that post!

It was more broadly about glitches. But, yeah, we definitely discussed a lot of cheese and especially the many ways gravity kills Fromsoft Bosses.

Also wtf? That post was 6 months ago! How time flies…

I would still argue that it’s a good topic for a weekly discussion. Depending on your definition cheese doesn’t always involve glitches. Also, since it’s been so long, we have quite a few new regular posters. As a cheese connoisseur I now also have quite a few I haven’t mentioned yet ;)

And yea, time sure does fly. I still remember when I started this community with barely a clue how Lemmy even works, thinking that I'd still be better off with game-specific communities vs. one combined community for soulslikes in general. We've got a lot of regulars here now - you being one of them, thank you for continued contributions - which is awesome. :)
