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?
Friends:
Should you have any questions, please do let me know.

Mages bother me because they have to worry about FP. I’m more of a bonk guy because you only have to worry about bonk.
What if FP replenished like stamina but at a slower rate maybe. It would get rid of the need of needing potions, and you would get people to try casting more. Maybe add some sort of restriction like cooldowns so the range isn't abused all too much
FP regenerates in some of the games, with the right equipment. But it's kind of too slow to rely on.
There are other systems that could make it interesting. Like, maybe casting spells builds up "heat", and if it gets too high something bad happens.
