I didn’t really “get” soulslikes until I beat my third one.

DeS was my first with the PS5 launch. It was hard, I cheesed everything I could, used the magic build and when I beat it was kind of just happy I got through it.

Next was Elden Ring. Incredible gaming experience and in my top 3 games all time. Still though I didn’t get what a souls game is about. I used build guide off fextra and 100%ed every area before moving on, so I was always over levelled.

Then came Lies of P. This is when I finally started learning bosses, learning parry timing, and then that feeling of satisfaction after finally beating that tough fight. Loved everything about that game.

Now I’m about 50 hours into Nioh 3. Just beat Kunimatsu after like 40 try’s I’m sure. The combat in this game has me hooked like crack. I am now officially a soulslike fiend.

Love these games!
