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 made it through tomb of the giants without much issue.

Fuck new Londo though. And that one specific archer into anor Londo. You know which one I mean.

Blighttown: the one place so mean that they made some of the enemies not respawn

No way
Just get the sad dad hat and Tomb is no big deal

Where were you in 2013-ish when I was stumbling around in the dark and cursing life?

[–] caseyweederman@lemmy.ca 4 points 4 days ago (1 children)

I was using the bonfire at the bottom of the Great Hollow before getting the Lordvessel.

That happened to me RECENTLY. I've done multiple playthroughs too and just wasn't paying attention. Whoops.

Oh no! That climb is harsh.

The worst enemy in blighttown was the framerate.

My stupid ass spent two hours running through Tomb in the pitch black memorizing everything in the dark before a chatter finally told me to use the torch.

Absolutely loved my first play through.

Guys? Are you sure it's the dark's fault and you can't just? See?

BlightTown, Anor London, and Sens Fortress were almost a breeze. I was more afraid than I needed to be. Yet I still haven't been able to get through the Tomb...
