r/soulslikes is a subreddit with 42k members. Its distinguishing qualities are that the community is large in size, and has high activity.
A place we can discuss, review, or ask for help with the Soulslike/lite genre or any FromSoftware title.
Defining a 'Soulslike' is hard, due to genres changing and evolving. Some identifiers to look out for are: combat with no animation cancelling, with a focus on dodging or parrying and managing your stamina, bonfire-style checkpoints, interconnected level designs, limited healing.
If you think the mods allowed/banned a game incorrectly, please use the modmail to tell us why.
