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.

Sekiro's first mandatory boss teaching you how to dodge very near the start of the game
Sekiro players refusing to learn more than one mechanic:
I have a very short attention span - you can't make me focus on more than one thing at a time
Doesn’t help that the grab hit boxes are so big and last so long that dodging doesn’t work well either. If anything this boss teaches you to sprint away instead of dodging.
