Will this be solo offline friendly ?

[Warlander]

I always liked the idea of survival games, but whenever ive tried them they suck in practice. pvp, people interfering etc, not interested. But i would love the ability to play by myself and explore the world and build what i want when and where i want etc.

Yes, you can play solo or with up to 16 players.

Maybe i should add " will it be optimized for solo play ? " because a lot of survival games claim that, and then you cant actually do a lot of the stuff like bosses etc , and then the grind becomes impossible for things like materials etc. If it takes 16 people a month to make a castle, will i be able to make a castle solo in the same time ?

In most of those games, you can select world settings before playing and reduce the amount of grinding.

I've the exact same question because for example Atlas is not solo friendly but Valheim yes

As long as the world settings can be altered, you could make it single player friendly.

The main 4 settings for single player that it would need are:

1. XP gain rate (to speed up leveling)
2. Resource drop multiplier (to reduce grind)
3. Carry capacity multiplier (so you can carry more resources around)
4. Enemy strength/scaling (makes it balanced for solo players to kill mobs and bosses)

The best way to play these games is to host your own private Dedicated server and have all your friends play with you. You guys can build a large community together and with it being dedicated every player in your group can hop on and leave as they wish so sometimes you're with a lot of them, sometimes only 1 person, sometimes you're all alone.
It really is far more fun that way over just solo offline.

Only if you cant transfer the same chars from a world to another

I agree with the OP. In most games, I find I'm more effective when playing alone. When I die in Valheim, it's always when trying to rescue team mates or following their daft plans. I don't mind if solo is more difficult, so long as it's playable.

I have ZERO friends.
can I still play this solo?

However, is the game completely playable offline in single player? As without any internet connection?

Depends how you play, I would love to play with friends, but my friends dont game, at least not the same types of games I do at teh same times. I wake up at 3am every day play for a few hours and go to work. Dont play in the evenings etc , thats time with the wife. So Im hoping this is solo friendly cause looks solid.

will you be able to solo and still build a castle? yes. will it take LONGER than 16 players working together to make the same castle? OF COURSE. just like valheim for example which is probaly the closest to this game from the looks of it.

Difficulty scales up with player count, so the game can be played solo. Of course, having a party to support you with spells and heals would make it easier, but if for any reason whatsoever you're on your own, then yes, you can take on the world of Enshrouded solo.
