Copy and paste of the first forest game

[Venom]

I just feel like every mechanic of (The Forest 1) has been copied and pasted to the new Sons of the forest,even though there are some changes the game is basically the exact same as the first one.Give me your opinions on this subject.(PS this account doesn't have the game but i have played it if you're wondering.

It definitely feels like a copy and paste for the most part. There's clearly just some game simps here who don't want to admit it for some reason, as if they have stock in the company.

So true, i learned today that a sequel is the same game but with lesser features.

the building looks much more innovative and immersive with you actually setting stuff up on the ground. new animations look great and all the new toys to play with. also excited to continue the story as "the forest" i thought had one of the greatest singleplayer experiences up there with subnautica

totally understand if not peoples cup of tea but man i think its done some cool things

Early access that why, did you know the game will always be about the forest so you wont expect anything else also.

Yes but i thought that they could add some new things to build and they also used the same buildable things from the first game that's a bit lazy don't you think?

No way you said they should add more things to build??? the entire game has a custom building feature like what more can u ask???

Do you know what a sequel is good sir?

If you have played you see therer's alot of different stuff, not what you just posted.

Ya we all know what a sequel is... Tell me, what are the "different stuff"? Kelvin or whatever his name is, is a nice addition, but I feel like that is it... They basically had five or so years to make a new game, and this is what we have? It's pretty lame right now.

Tf are the new things you wanted?? lightsabers?

they did add a fair number of new things including an upgraded building system and being able to split the logs is also not something i remember being able to do in the first Forest game

Wow - 5 years of development on splitting logs!

You have no clue how game development works. especially for a small indie company holy ♥♥♥♥

how is it less? harder to survive, mobs are harder, custom building, more crafting, bigger map, more detail, different story. tf u mean

The game is definitely without any doubt very similar understandably as its a sequel, but i don't think there is enough innovation to warrant purchasing this game even as someone who enjoyed the original, the biggest thing they added was a the companion feature other than that everything else is small in comparison,

Slight graphic improvement - still not amazing graphics by any means though.

Slightly improved building - maybe? maybe not.

Slightly more weapons - not really necessary best thing ive seen is a shotgun but again not exactly game changing

Similar story premise - Very lazy

Similar AI - nothing game changing here

New mutant enemies - but they removed some of the original enemies why?

Bigger map - doesn't really change anything i felt the OG map was big enough

Better animations and crafting animations - looks nice but its not game changing

That said i think if you have never played the original forest then this is probably a good buy.

Slight? lol I dont know what game you're playing but the graphics are MUCH better then forest.

And clearly you have no ide how different the AI is either, so no, I dont think you have seen aything SOTF offers

[Gigadesu!]

The best way I can describe this game atm is the first game but built on a new foundation.
We aren't missing many old features and I could see them and new ones making a return in the future. Some ♥♥♥♥ still seems very dumbed down such as us no longer needing to boil water and the game letting me eat raw meat without a need to cook. I'm still uncertain of if our character can even get sick from blood or has any use for the herbs we can collect.

You haven't even played the game lol, Everything hes saying is true, the game is a SLIGHTLY graphically improved Forest with seasons and a bigger map. Story is the same, enemies the same, they say the behavior changed but it hasn't, they just attack you based on what key items you have unlocked, none of this ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ learning ai has been happening, we even tried to NOT execute or kill any enemies all game and no change, still the same raids.

Better AI, better crafting, different story, new map, better graphics, more items, friendly NPCs.
Are you delusional?

You did something wrong then.
Several days in-game and my group has had no violent encounters with the cannibal camps. They fought off the ferals with us.

Anyone who says the AI isn't any different is either a murderhobo or not paying attention.

I wouldn't say better AI lol

[Arnie Rimsy BSc.SSc.]

It's fine so far. Runs well, looks modern, I like it. In saying that, my Forest 1 experience was PS4, unplayable and empty laggy servers with 1-2 other people and not really enjoyable. The creepy feel of being tracked and attacked at any time is good though.

Idk, I think it'll end up really good when it comes out of EA.

Yes. Better AI. I'm not being flooded by ferals day one who can't help but ONLY attack me. They're more complex. They wait for their moment, they steal my food, they get scared off by shows of aggression. Meanwhile the civil cannibals are practically just friendly neighbors to my group, and have literally fought ferals alongside us before wandering back home.
Played a whole lot of the previous game and this game has much better cannibal AI.
