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!

[DS1] Anyone struggling with the gargoyles?

Theydies and gentlethems, it is with great pleasure that I can say I absolutely bodied Malenia last night. It's my first full playthrough of any Soulsborne. (lemmy.world)

Spent all weekend working on her and the Elden Beast. I was determined to beat her before the ending. Yesterday I got up a little early and grinded a few quick levels to use Black Flames Protection. After a long ass day, eventually I finally sat down, loaded in...

And whooped her on my first attempt.

With any luck I can figure out a way for me to deal with the Beast and then its on to Shadow of the Erdtree!

Thank yall for all the great advice here and on other forums, if it wasn't for the community it would've been a much different experience playing through. But goddamn im having fun.

It's all about what you like and your playstyle. Dual dex build is probably easier from equip load perspective you just wont hit as hard per single hit but you can still shred stuff as long as you know how long you have between attacks. Elden beast itself pauses for long periods. You just have to chase it and know how to avoid some of the more dangerous attacks

I'll tinker with it when I've got time for sure, thanks!
