how is this game compared to valheim

[Yagi]

hello I played valheim and enjoyed it a lot, I wanted to know what Enshrouded worths compared to Valheim, I didnt check videos of it since I dont want to spoil the game in case I buy it, asking cause my internet connection suxx as f (1mo/s at best) and game is 60go at least 3 days of downloading just to test it out :(

I enjoy both games, but prefer Valheim. Prefer the combat in Enshrouded, and definitely prefer the visuals (only play Valheim with 4K texture packs). But the immersion and fun factor goes to Valheim. Had much more fun building bases there too.

This game does not have a procedural map, so that may get boring. Does have a pretty good skill perk system, which lends itself to some replayability. I like the shroud system, which forces efficient exploration in the beginning (less of an issue later on). Only applicable in some areas of the map. Glider is fun.

Both games have pros and cons, but Enshrouded is pretty far up there as far as the 29 survival games I own on Steam goes. Maybe top 5 (Valheim is number 1).

I have not played this in a year just when it came out and I found the world lonely w/o life your home feels lonely too no pets / mounts and maps pain in the butt to get around on and NO mini map to help

Should maybe play it since fairly recent updates. Not only are there WAY more possible survivors in your town, they can also roam around and give you little side quests. There's pets and livestock as well.

I would suggest keeping the shop NPCs static, though I let the other survivors roam all they want.

Enshrouded is by far better at building. Worse at everything else.

World system makes velheim better for me. Game has potential but not sure if its ever going to reach it.

[The Big Brzezinski]

It's a lot more approachable, but much thinner overall. Valheim's combat is leagues ahead.

This game beats valheim in every aspect imo. Valheim combat is the stupidest I have ever seen if you are not on the exact same level you cant hit them. This world while not procedural is much more alive there are things going on everywhere. Your bases are living as there are npcs wandering and pets and livestock etc. Tons more content and barely a year old. Graphics and beauty is far far beyond valheim. Valheim is hype without substance, they have had how many years now and the content is lacking and lackluster at best. Enshrouded beats valheim hands down.

I couldn't have said it better than this.

Valheim's combat isn't flashy, but it's rock solid at its core. Enshrouded's combat boils down to dodge rolling and spamming the same mandatory-autoaimed attacks at damage sponge enemies.

Except if I am standing on an anthill I cant hit or be hit by the monster inches above or below me but yeah "ROCK SOLID" lol I do not use auto aim it can be toggled and if you vary the timing on your attacks you get different moves and attacks. Again Valheim combat is NOT very good just the different level thing which has been since day one is soooooo stupid

Clearly you exaggerate, but I just saw someone complaining about the same thing in this game as well, It's a limitation in this game, Valheim, and every other game to one extent or another. The point of any game is learning your limits and learning how to adapt to those limits.

That said, they're two totally different types of combat. Valheim combat tends to be slow and deliberate. You have limited mobility, and have to manage stamina in long combats. In this game, even as a tank with the heaviest armor and no dexterity bonuses, I can jump around for a jackrabbit and hardly ever have to deal with stamina.

I enjoy both, but they are two very different types of gameplay.

This.

Have fun!

[Spirit Wave]

To me they are basically equal. Enshrouded feels more like a straight up RPG and it does not have much "survival". What Valheim has that enshrouded lacks is an ocean you can sail in. Valheim is updates slow as hell though so I would not be surprised if in a year enshrouded completely surpasses it.

I wish i was exaggerating more but fight on any slight incline in valheim and you miss they miss and you have to move yourself to the "same level" in order to do damage with a club sword etc. Its been the bane of the valheim combat system and complained about since day 2. As for enshrouded I have not had the same issues and played over 50 hrs. I havent seen that issue here personally so no idea but I can go into valheim and replicate that problem in the first combat encounter. Anyway I own both played both. Where valheim can be made playable though is the mods as for updates ugh to long and to little mistlands ended it for me after i beat it I uninstalled havent looked back. Not saying its horrible or such just I got my fun from it and moved on.

Each to his own though personally though between the 2 if I could only have one it would be enshrouded.

I have over 4000 hours in Valheim, and that is an exaggeration. The vertical arc is smaller in Valheim, and some weapons are worse than others, but you can fight on a slope. You can't aim a melee weapon up or down, same as in Enshrouded. The vertical arc is determined by the game, not by your swing.

In Enshrouded, it shows up mostly with flying creatures, but someone was complaining about bugs and rats, which I haven't had much of an issue with.
