  • Palworld's 1.0 updates releases next month
  • Valheim gets its full release (including more consoles) in September
  • Enshrouded gets its official release in October

Many good games getting official releases this year. Looking forward to it!

Honestly I only bought this game because they were making their own engine. I was and still am pretty tired of anything remotely survival/crafter-like but they've done some good work here and I'm excited to check out 1.0

[–] CIA_chatbot@lemmy.world 9 points 3 days ago (1 children)

It’s a great game, they nailed dungeons for n my opinion, half tomb-raider/half Skyrim

[–] zod000@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Yeah, the game is pretty great though I really disliked the last boss fight (or at least it was the "last boss" last time I played through, big flying dragon). It was entirely unfun and brutal solo. Maybe they have tweaked it by now, and I thoroughly enjoyed most of the game so don't let this dissuade anyone from giving it a try.

[–] CIA_chatbot@lemmy.world 3 points 3 days ago (1 children)

They’ve made a bunch of changes, I think I’m going to start a fresh game since this thread reminded me of it :D

[–] zod000@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I'd be tempted to if I could get my friends to give it a proper shot. They all really didn't click with the game like they did with many of the others in the genre. Also, I'd be sad to give up my gigantic castle that I carved into the side of a mountain :)

[–] CIA_chatbot@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I honestly just played it solo, I kind of hate playing games like this with friends

[–] zod000@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 2 days ago

I enjoy these types of games with friends far more, but I always end up playing most of them solo because it can be hard to wrangle friends together at the same time when you're all adults with busy lives.

Survival crafting is such a boring genre. It's such a let down when I see an interesting game on the Steam Store Front and it turns out to be exact same dull gameplay loop.

[–] ampersandrew@lemmy.world 6 points 3 days ago

Different strokes for different folks. A handful of them added a twist on it that made the genre finally catch my eye, and this is one of them, but it's a relatively recent phenomenon for me, for the most part.

[–] TachyonTele@piefed.social 14 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

This game has me hooked. I highly recommend it to anyone even remotely interested in it.

I actually pirated it on a whim, and played 40 hours of it before buying it, and im glad i did. If you like anything about survival crafting youll love this game.

It's probably the best looking voxal game I've seen yet, and it runs butter smooth on the steam deck.

(Edit: for further reference, I uninstalled both Valheim and Windrose for this game. It's worth it.

Bought this when it hit EA. Super excited to see the numbers on the reviews, 40k last I saw, so that's like 4 million sales. Reviews are usually around 1-2% of total sales. So that's awesome. Very excited to get to 1.0 and play the hell out of Enshrouded. It's EXCELLENT.

[–] TachyonTele@piefed.social 5 points 3 days ago

The temples and dungeons are great, i love how detailed everything is for a voxal game

[–] BertramDitore@lemmy.zip 8 points 3 days ago

I played this for a while on early access, it’s actually the only pre-release game I’ve ever paid for, lots of fun. It was surprisingly polished when I last played back in August. Think I’ll come back to it and start a fresh run through, see what’s new.

Had me until I saw the sandbox builder

[–] terabyterex@lemmy.world 4 points 2 days ago (1 children)

if you dont like building then seriously create a cube for your bed and chest and then a cube for each npc (baclsmith, archerer, herbalist etc). and it heart, its dungeon diving

[–] clifmo@programming.dev 0 points 2 days ago

Perhaps the core game has something I'd like but I don't have time to create my bedroom to find out
