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 went into Ds1 expecting BlightTown to be tough and Sens Fortress to be the end of my playthrough. Neither were actually very bad. I feel like the difficulty of these areas has been memed up a bit.
I'm currently stuck on Nito. That area feels harder imo.
Yea, Blighttown's manageable if you're somewhat competent in the game. I feel like much of the difficulty primarily stems from the frustration the area's design itself brings: the darkness, enemy placement, poison, weird geometry. Objectively speaking, there are worse areas in these games.
Can't comment on Sen's fortress because I haven't gotten that far yet lol
