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.

I would like DS2 a lot more if the directional movement hadn't been so badly downgraded.
Honestly, out of all of DS2's problems, fixing this one alone would make the game a lot more tolerable.
I see this complaint online a lot and never understood it. When I go back to DS1 the four directional rolling always bothers me and I often get hit because I try to roll diagonally and it doesn't let me. When I play DS2, it lets me roll in eight directions and feels much better to me. What am I missing here?
