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 can't argue with that, although it's worth mentioning that this is my first and only character in ER:)) I kinda' knew what I wanted from the start because this is pretty much how I played through DS3 as well. Have a fondness for Greatsword Battlemages of sorts:))

Forewent the usage of a shield in DS3 as well!

I will say, though, I was not planning around the Bloodhound Greatsword! Its discovery was a game changer! Initially wanted to go for Faith for sustainability, but as soon as I read that Arcane boosted Bleed builds, I knew I was set in my ways:))
