Soulslike - Discussion, News, Memes

218 readers

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 loved the game, but for the life of me could not beat Genishiro's lightning phase... I should try it again.

Is that the boss on the roof top? If so that's where I stopped. The counter system I still wasn't good with and you can't level grind to make it easier like most of the souls games.

As much as it's a meme, Genichiro is the part where most people "get" the game and its mechanics. It's a very tough fight when you're just starting out, but once you get a hang of things and a good feel for the combat, it gets really good later on
