What action RPGs do you like /v/?
I'm very fond of FROM Software games, so between my favorites are Dark Souls I-II-III, Bloodborne and Sekiro.

My computer is too shit to run any of the ones you listed, especially through WINE. Are there any Soulslikes or something similar that are old enough to run on an aging rig via Loonix?

Sunless sea, but it's shit webgame made into unity game. Then maybe titan souls, hard to say when you didn't specify what aging rig means. I play on my consumer-tier laptop from 2011 stellaris.

>Sunless Sea
Exploration with roguelike elements, not aRPG
>Titan Souls
Looks neat
>Stellaris
not aRPG

As for the rig, let's say any game past 2009-2010 may have issues.

You asked for soulslike and first two or at least the second one fit the already vague soulslike criteria. If you meant strictly likes of the nioh and so you should have said so. soulslike≠arpg

Souls games have lot of soul u_U
Just the art design and the world building are crazy good, and the swordfighting gameplay is top-tier.

FROM Software is well known to suck at optimization and PC ports, although with time they are getting better, i'm not an expert on playing on Linux cause usually i play on Windows(literally the only thing i use Windows for), a couple of souls-like 2D light games that i know are Salt and Sanctuary https://ska-studios.com/games/salt-and-sanctuary/ and Blasphemous http://blasphemousgame.com/ i really like the first, still didn't play the second, don't know if they work on WINE.

Thread is about ARPGs in general, anyway i think that the difference between a normal ARPG and a souls-like is the death and rebirth mechanic, where you can lose or recover your souls(or whatever other in-game score), Sekiro is not a soulslike for example cause the double life mechanic is proprietary only to that title, actually maybe Sekiro is not even a ARPG but more like an action-adventure game, my mistake for putting it into the OP.
