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?

I will never forget the patch that nerfed lightning spears. One day I woke up, opened Reddit, and read "reduced lightning spear amount from 11 to 3". I did a triple take but it was real, they suddenly destroyed my build mid-playthrough.

I escaped that nerf in my first playthrough for playing a fully offline copy of the game in the 360. On my second playthrough (first time with dlcs) on my pc, I felt very disappointed when the massively powerful lighting spell I was hyped to get had been reduced to nothing.
