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 fucking love discouraging new players from the things I like!

The way they won’t support any future versions that I might enjoy gets me so wet.

Letting my fandom erode and crumble, yisssssss.

No doubt no doubt. I guess everyone's been there to some extent at some point, but some people really make it their passion to hate people for not playing these games the way they think is right

Different game, sure, but people in Destiny 2 are so very much like this. PVP especially, and doubly so in Trials of Osiris. It's self sabotage. You beat me and want to really tell me how much I suck. So then people leave and never come back. Soon enough, the only people you have to play against are leagues better than you and you've become me. It's asinine.

It's just really surreal. I guess in a PVP setting, trash talking and gatekeeping "makes more sense" given that your performance actually matters and is more easily comparable than in a single-player game, but it's annoying all the same. You just get rid of people to play with, whom you might have common interests with. It's just silly.

I just gave up on Mindustry because of this.
