I’ve played almost all of FromSoftware’s Souls games, from Demon’s Souls to Elden Ring, but have bounced off them hard.
Outside of those games, I occasionally find one I enjoy on the indie scene, like Another Crab’s Treasure, but even then, those both had downsides that prevented me from saying I’ve ever truly loved a Soulslike. That’s finally changing with Void Sols , a self-prescribed “minimalist Soulslike.”
Recommended Videos Going minimalist Void Sols begins with me breaking out of their prison cell. I fight my way out of that and then through the surrounding forest, village, mountain, mine, and more. Combat is stamina-based, so methodically dodging enemy attacks before striking with a flurry of my own is critical to staying alive. I obtain “Sols” after killing enemies but drop them when I die.
Simply put, I’m not very good at combat in most Soulslike games. I prefer action to be faster, so I play series like Bayonetta, Devil May Cry, or Yakuza a lot more. That’s probably why Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice is my favorite FromSoftware game. Seeing combat from a new perspective and worrying less about the surrounding environment, a frustrating camera, or oddly telegraphed attacks makes Void Sols much more enjoyable for me than your typical Soulslikes.
Enemies test my skills in different ways, while bosses are significantly tougher challenges that require me to find and “solve” their weaknesses. As for leveling up and customizing my character, Void Sols keeps things simple with four primary stats. I have the ability to set up loadouts for different playstyles; I used the basic sword and scythe the most.
