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.

I'm just mad at this point. This looks pretty much like Bloodborne 2 in terms of aesthetics. Not only did neither Sony nor FS even acknowledge its 10th anniversary, but they also release a game that's so similar to it that you could pass it off as BB2. I'm just pissed man. Plus gating it behind a new console is just annoying
It really makes me wonder what has been going on behind the scenes. Is Sony being uncooperative? Has Fromsoft been ghosting them for their new buddy Nintendo? Lol
Whatever it is, I suppose I'm picking up the Switch 2 now.
Does seem to be a 8-player PvP(vE) multiplayer game, so it doesn't seem to follow the traditional formula.
Lots of questions, yea. Seeing as this upcoming game looks pretty much finished, they've probably ironed out the deal with Nintendo a couple years back even before the talks of Kadokawa's acquisition by Sony were thrown around. Indeed interesting to think about why they didn't go to Sony again. It's not like they've had long-lasting ties to Nintendo unlike Sony who pretty much kickstarted their career via Demon's Souls
