Soulslike - Discussion, News, Memes

465 readers
67 users here now

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?

Maybe Sony will use today to announce a remaster or PC port!

I'm not giving Sony $10 to do this even if you gave me the $10

You need PS+ to play online. 1 month of the lowest tier costs $10.

Oh yea that's fair. I'm not subscribed right now either, so I don't even have access to the game lol. Don't have my physical copy right now either

Hell yeah. Glad to see this make its way to lemmy. r/Bloodborne was the only thing I missed when moving over here a few years ago.

I made !bloodborne@lemmy.zip back when I migrated over two years ago but the community never took off as I wanted it to - same for !sekiro@lemmy.zip and !liesofp@lemmy.zip - so I just created this one to combine all the soulslikes and their discussion. I haven't gotten around to make any events yet, but given this special occasion, I thought I could give it a try.

(not like I did anything else than just copying the posts off the subreddit but yea)

Because of this event, I finally got in some MP. They were all invasions, but hey; that's what made me fall in love with the games anyway. And I have to say, the connectivity was the tightest of any other game they've done. DS1 and 2 were just 90% fishing for backstabs due to the latency, DS3 was decent, but still had some funk and I consider Elden Ring pretty much unplayable without modding (IE Seamless Co-Op), but Bloodborne's been fantasticly unlaggy. When I hit someone, they actually get hit. When I dodge something, I don't just take a hit the moment I come out of it. It's great 😃

Glad to see it finally working out for you!
