From what I've seen on the discord, this game is apparently going to be the dark souls of gay furry porn. Yeah right lol
I'd say it's more like "Fear and Hunger" but with literal gay furry porn.
People nowadays just braindead and stamp "soulslike" onto everything, it literally just a Buzzword now.
I don't think these people even know what that terms stands for anymore.
Not every dark fantasy is "dark souls", Not every Combat-Action RPG is "dark souls", Not every game with hard combat is "dark souls".
"Soul-like" refers to a very specific type of game that features highly punishing but down-to-earth "heavy feeling" combat, with amazing environmental story-telling. so you won't be distracted by plots when you're immersed in the brilliant gameplay, while still able to enjoy a great story as you progress.
Prowler as fun as many of its mechanic is, doesn't have any of the feature of a soulslike.
