Enshrouded has such a beautiful and immersive world. It’s a shame they restrict first person mode to building; it’d knock the socks off of every Bethesda game ever in terms of immersion if it wasn’t locked to third person 99% of the time.
It is gorgeous, but imo no game comes close to the immersion you get when playing a Bethesda game.
There’s no other game in history where you can walk into some random dude’s house, steal everything that isn’t nailed down (including useless plates and silverware), and sit on any of the furniture.
What I like about Enshrouded’s world is how every setpiece tells a story. Not just in the omnipresent side quests and lore notes, but in how every ruined house feels authentic. They’ll almost always have a kitchen, cellar, outhouse or latrine, bedrooms, etc, and many of them have tableaus suggesting what happened in their occupants’ final moments and/or what caused them to fall. It feels like a place people actually lived in.
I need to find friends to play this with …
I want to play this game but man is it grindy without friends to play with.
Even with the world settings jacked all the way up it takes a stupid long time to mine just about anything other than stone or dirt, even with a top tier pickaxe and the requisite perks. And I will say exploration is a little iffy too, especially in the desert with all the verticality.
I broke down and started visiting a multiplayer server where it’s basically just a big store full of everything currently in the game so I could just take what I needed/wanted.
