Enshrouded or this?

[JUBATiC]

I feel like Enshrouded have lot more content to play and more complete game while runescape is still early in development

Well yeah, Enshrouded has been in early access for over a year now

Gotta be honest. After playing this game for 17 hours, I can confidently say it does not offer anything unique to the genre, the content feels like 90% of it is missing, and there is nothing to hold your attention long-term. I only have as many hours in as I do because I wasted several hours building a house that serves no purpose.

Honestly, there really isn't much to do in the game. It feels like a tech demo that has nothing groundbreaking to show off. It's a skill grind with no compelling reason to do so. If it were an MMO like its predecessor, it would at least hold some social value, but the world is tiny, combat is clunky, only a handful of shallow quests, no NPC towns, not much to interact with... Need I go on.

Give this game at least a year and check back. If you want a game to play now, then Enshrouded is undeniably a better buy.

Both, either, neither. Just personal preference.

Its still early. Its only base game and the magic system isnt even really in yet.

This is more of a EA where you test it and make suggestions. But ya I expect a lot more to come out.

[Jackhammer (Wholf)]

Enshrouded. Much more to offer.

[The laziest]

This game wins over Enshrouded for me due to two reasons:
1 - Magic mechanic. Instead of just basic "I cast fireball" there are utility magic that helps you with your daily routine, such as cutting trees or getting ores. This enhances your gameplay by a lot, and keeping that in mind helps generally completing your tasks.
2 - Unlike in Enshrouded, where melee fighting way too fast, here it's slow and cautious. You cannot just mash attack button and expect enemies to be dead before they will hit you (however, stunlocking the enemies here feels far more rewarding), but you have to play carefully and manage both your stamina and your attacks in order to avoid incoming attacks or block/parry them.

However, I cannot say that this game is *BETTER* than Enshrouded per se. Both games presents something unique in their own ways, and both games deserves to look after.

absolutely enshrouded. no competition.

Short king survival simulator or Runescape survival simulator, go figure.
