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 really wish the Nightrider glaive's blade was just a liiiiiittle bit smaller. It's a great design, but any time I use it I find myself distracted by how it looks just a bit mis-proportioned, too top-heavy. The swordspear just has that elegance to it
The one I'd really like to try is Loretta's glaive, but I've actually not done Str-Int yet. And also I have to go all the way to the Haligtree to get it. At least I really like the Loretta fight though!
~~also the (k)nightrider glaive should come with a little red light and a robot voice that talks to me~~
It's perfect
Upon checking: Loretta's war sickle scales slightly more with dex? Huh. Although it seems like it scales quite poorly overall. If only it worked as a catalyst
Loretta's War Sickle is probably the purest quality-int weapon that I can think of. You should get really good damage if you invest evenly between Str/Dex/Int and you get the same moveset as the Swordspear with longer range. The only disadvantage is that you only get the non-unique Loretta's Slash and you could just put the AoW Loretta's Slash on the Swordspear at the beginning of the game for more or less the same experience.
