Squidward Reacts to Roguelike Soulslike Game

New game announced. Good price. Good graphics. Roguelike. Soulslike.

A two-panel meme featuring Squidward Tentacles from SpongeBob SquarePants. In the top panel, Squidward happily carries a blue beach chair with accompanying text describing excitement about a new game with good price and graphics. In the bottom panel, Squidward appears dejected while still carrying the chair, with text revealing the game is both roguelike and soulslike, referencing the challenging nature of these game genres that often frustrate players expecting a more casual experience.

This meme uses edited screenshots from the SpongeBob SquarePants animated television series with added text to create a reaction format about video game genres. The original scenes likely come from episodes featuring Squidward with beach furniture, repurposed here to comment on the common gaming disappointment when promising new games reveal themselves to be in the difficult roguelike or soulslike categories.
