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!
or
[DS1] Anyone struggling with the gargoyles?
Friends:
Should you have any questions, please do let me know.

And you need so much fuckin' poise to not be stunned out of everything in ER. If it's under 55, IIRC, you might as well not even bother.
51, but there's a substantial degree to which it depends on your weapon too. A lot of heavier weapon classes make you far harder to flinch when you wield with both hands and attack, and colossal weapons do it even one-handed, so those classes of weapons are the ones that allow you to trade hits most often
That's a big part of why I stopped playing, honestly. Waiting two years for a window to attack, just to use light attack once before waiting another two years- then if I get hit by the lightest tickle, I just fall to the ground and am instantly punished. So boring compared to DS imo.
