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.

Definitely DS2, I didn't play Bloodborne(fuck you Sony) so I can't judge but with all the other soulslike DS2 has more replayability.
You have tons of routes from Majula to go, can skip some bosses/areas, fight the same boss multiple times with bonfire aesthetic to skip a good chunk of the game or use it to farm souls, with the alternatives form of healing you don't need to upgrade the estus flask so much. You had some bizarre mechanics like the spices to reduce spell/miracle requirements so you can use it even in a LVL1 Deprived build.
