The exploration is starting to drag a bit. I keep finding interesting areas and after navigating through them i'm treated to another forest longbow or apprentice wand from like a shiny golden chest. It feels like Skyrim where most chests or dungeon rewards are usually shite and you're there just because of a quest really.

So my friend and I played a second session and I'm worried about the difficulty. At first, when we bumped into Rookmore and the first Elixir Well, the level 3 enemies were an insurmountable difficulty increase and we died repeatedly. Good, working as intended; we got some better gear, gained a level or two, and went back with a better grasp of the mechanics. That was all in the first session; we played again last night and there was a troubling lack of increasing difficulty; we did another settler vault and explored a lot of the area past Rookmore, and the combat wasn't really putting up either new challenges or bigger numbers. I hope we find something that Dark Souls us into the ground next game, or it's going to get pretty boring.

That was a complaint I had about the game, huge lack of enemy variety and enemy animation variety and a good chunk of the enemies are taken up by the blue tutorial zombies that take 2 years to swing their weapon and get stunlocked easily. My advice is just keep pushing forward into higher level areas until something scary shows up and upping the flame altar level to get rid of deadly fog.

KingKapalone posted:I heard about the server side progression. How annoying is that? If some of us play one day and then a new person joins in the next, are they going to be pretty annoyed missing out on the early part of the game experience? Will they be lost since I assume the initial quests are guiding you in what to do? - Items aren't soulbound and have no level requirements so anything that high-level players find can be used by new players - Same goes for buff foods/elixirs so new players can be buffed to the gills - Shroud roots in Elixir Wells and elsewhere respawn so new players can still chop them down for skill points - Power leveling is a thing and if someone is running a healer build then areas 10+ levels higher can be quite survivable even for melee (though we had like 2-3 whizzards/archers nuking things and drawing aggro) There are still personal quests to do and places to reveal on your map for XP so it's not like everything is locked out.

I do not like the fog areas with the ugly creatures. Is kind of the point of the game, but I enjoy more when I am trekking through a fantasy land digging ruins, than when the game is Fallout Fantasy. I would enjoy the game more if there where a human faction and some politics going on or other alternates to just the fog.

I found out you can extend roads using the rake and get the movement bonus around your base. This is nice if you like having your crafters in their own buildings, you can pave a path between them to make it quicker to get around. It's a bit wonky to get it to spread roads instead of the surrounding terrain, seems like you have to swing the rake a few times to build up road underneath before pushing it forward.

idiotsavant posted:Make a rake at the workshop first to flatten things out. place your farm soil a little high, too or you’ll end up with a bunch of poo poo sticking out and it’s impossible to clean up and unbuilding it starts putting giant craters in your new farm and makes the whole thing a mess. Building could definitely use some fine-tuning, and probably some rough tuning too I hope they fix the rake bug soon. I didn't know I needed to make one before level 5 so now I can't make one at all. So if I want lots of farm soil I need to make lots of farm soil and I can't level stuff. Eh.. oh well!

One mechanic which intrigues me is taking over an abandoned village like I've seen from some pictures and basically refurbishing it. How viable is this? Can you have enough space for the NPC's to drop a crafting table in, even if you don't build full-on houses for them? I would just love taking an abandoned building as my base of operations and grow my empire of NPC's.

Your available building area is dependent on the strength of your altar, not where you place it, per se.

bird food bathtub posted:What bug is this? I think I got level 5 last night... The first rake recipe disappears after level 5 (not sure if that means you have to craft BEFORE level 5 or before level 6). Later you get a better recipe (scrappy rake I think) but part of that recipe is the basic rake. Since the basic rake recipe no longer exists, you can't craft the more advanced one either if you don't already have a rake. Edit: I just logged in and checked, and I have the rake recipe in my workbench now. Either the patch fixed it, or me loading the game onto a different computer did. Either way, I have a rake now!

If you want to move your base, do you pull up your upgraded flame and get all the mats back, or do you pretty much need to leave your original flame down, place a new one and then go back and upgrade that original one as needed?

Moving your base, or even moving the flame around, will make you cry quickly if you don't do it right. Pull up your flame without a plan, and in 30 seconds EVERYTHING in radius is destroyed forever, with no material refunds. So the hot setup is to put down a new flame where you want it, upgrade it to the proper radius, and only take down the original flame once you're 100% certain nothing in its radius matters any more, and anything you do want to keep is in the radius of a flame you're keeping.

About 25 hours in, game has some great bones. I think my biggest complaint is the itemization is too RNG - I lucked out with a legendary axe at level 4 and didn't replace it until almost level 20. I think if POIs had more specific loot tables, there'd be a reason beyond quests to visit them.

Okay, let me rephrase my question. I knew I would need to move all my stuff first. Is the material used to upgrade the flame strength refunded when I destroy it, or does it all go poof like (AFAIK) the 5 stone for a base flame? Although I've never stuck around for the 30 second counter to finish.

 Game is good Things I hope they improve upon, in no particular order: 1. Like a lot of other people it really annoyed me and my friend that quest progress isn't unique per character, so one of us would play when the other wasn't and content would get eaten up. Funnily enough this isn't always true and somehow we were able to double up on most of the quests for crafting stations, getting two for free. 2. It started to bug me by the time I was done how the world almost fully resets every time you quit out. I can sort of see the logic for some things like being able to rechallenge bosses for better trophies (the last thing I might do in this game is go fight everything again until I can get iron trophies for each); some of what this allows, however, is really dumb, like being able to drop a flame right next to a gold chest somewhere and just reload the world over and over to collect free loot. I personally think things like shroud roots should be permanently gone and the skill point bonuses be the things connected to the world, or have everything on a 24 hour timer or something. Better yet, make this a scaling option in settings for people to pick and choose. 3. Game needs 1-2 more enemy factions and a little more enemy variety within factions in general. Honestly scavengers and shroud zombies at higher levels still work when a fight will put melee and ranged enemies at you at once, but the beastmen have the melee dude, the shaman dude, and the big boss dude, and that's it. Enemies in each biome in Valheim, for example, are completely different from one another and it helps differentiate the biomes from each other. 4. Boss design could be a bit more complex too, I was hoping they'd have another boss like the fellwyrm from the castle courtyard in the game before I ran out of EA content, but they don't. The kindlewaste boss is probably my least favorite of the available five for having only two attacks they spam with absurd tracking. It's ok for not every encounter with a health bar on screen to be a climactic challenge but having 3-4 more in the game would be welcome. 5. Getting into the weeds here a little but I hope they put some thought into how to evolve progression through biomes. Each biome is mechanically identical: find a new tree/2-3 new ores/5-6 new plants, do quests for your NPCs to unlock a new crafting station for everything, craft gear up, repeat. Every quest by those same NPCs is some variation on "go here, then here, then here, collect item, craft station". Those places they send you to are often interesting, certainly, but estimating how much of the map we can access right now we're like 1/3 of the way through the game. I have my doubts that the formula will last for the other 2/3 without some kind of variation, extra environmental challenges, a new NPC, something. Still even if this game turns out to be just more of what we've gotten in a year or two I'll be happy with the purchase. I kind of don't want to make this comparison because I can almost hear the eye rolling that's about to commence but the last time I got anything remotely like the sense of exploration and discovery I got in Enshrouded by just picking a direction and walking, I was playing Elden Ring. It's good company to be in.

I think the part they did very well on the game is the hand-crafted world and the "scavenger hunt for treasure chests in the ruins" is pretty fun, especially when it's voxel based and you can destroy chunks of those ruins to find secrets, it helps that the game is decently pretty too and the houses and cities are all fairly detailed and mostly aren't empty, with only a few houses I've come across that didn't make sense like no staircases to a empty second floor. Aside from that the game is still lacking a lot of game and might be worth checking back in a few years, and it really should get a zelda bloodmoon event to reset the treasure spawns instead of the degenerate "logout, loot, repeat" endgame progression it right now has.

I need to watch a farming tutorial or my game is bugged. I have farming ground in my inventory, but have not way to deploy it on the land. Even if I "equip" it. I trough it would appear has available block in the crafting table, or magically available has block to use with the hammer, landscaping. But nope. Is only a item in my inventory, not something I can put down in the world. I am going to need a lot of flax and stuff is going to be a problem soon. Also, if theres tomatoes, it mean America exist in this game, since tomatoes come from america.

So whichever patch was deployed apparently didn't definitively fix the issue. Big ol' bummer

If anyone has been, understandably, put off from going magic in the early game, be assured that it really improves by mid and late game. It really "just" needs some skill points and a few decent items. The mana regen ring (ring of rapacity, easy to get, plenty of guides) makes mana a non issue so the infinite staff charges become totally viable. I need to find out how to get the acid one as it it is hilariously OP. Now the ring is maybe busted, but who knows if/when it'll be changed. Same ring also makes it possible to spam the glider a stupid amount. It's definitely more involved of a type, but even I'm managing alright I'm pretty bad.
