Both are 29.99 on Steam right now, have 30.00 in my budget.

Which do I buy, and what do I do with my penny?

I have played Sekiro a little when it first came out, but got frustrated and gave it away with my Xbox One, now I feel like with better hardware (good PC) I might enjoy the game more (less frustrating parry timing).

I have played Elden Ring a decent bit, somehow never quite beat it, but enjoyed it.

I have also played / beaten DS 3 XXX times, and Bloodborne XXXXXXXXXXXXX times, beaten Demon Souls remake, and Dark Souls remaster, Dark Souls 2 as well.

Which one do I buy /Soulslike?

the game learning curve is steeper because of limited time for a run, and some "training" solo runs and explanation videos helped me to improve (i avoid guides in regular soulslikes, but the only alternative here is investing tremendous amounts of time to learn even basics). then when you already understand what to do, its better even with randos imo. most of my regular "story" runs were fun and positive. i know people are salty in "ranked" mode, but i haven't tried it and probably won't without a proper squad

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?
