My kind of game

Minecraft meets, Breathe of the Wild, meets Elden Ring RPG survival game.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Eines der motivierendsten Survival-Spiele der letzten Jahre Enshrouded hat mich wirklich überrascht. Das Spiel schafft etwas, woran viele Survival-Games scheitern: Es motiviert ständig zum Weiterspielen, ohne dabei in lästigen Grind auszuarten. Man hat immer das Gefühl, dass sich jede Entdeckung und jede erledigte Quest lohnt. Das Spiel ist nicht einfach – und genau das macht einen großen Teil des Reizes aus. Neue Gebiete sind gefährlich, Gegner können fordern und man muss seine Ausrüstung und Fähigkeiten sinnvoll verbessern. Jeder Fortschritt fühlt sich dadurch verdient an. Besonders gelungen finde ich die riesige, wunderschön gestaltete Welt. Überall gibt es Höhlen, Ruinen, Geheimnisse und neue Orte zu entdecken. Die Atmosphäre ist hervorragend, die Musik passt perfekt zur Spielwelt und die Grafik sieht fantastisch aus. Auch das Bausystem und die Rollenspiel-Elemente sind hervorragend umgesetzt. Man kann seinen Charakter in verschiedene Richtungen entwickeln, wodurch jeder Spielstil anders wirkt. Für mich ist Enshrouded eines der wenigen Survival-Spiele, bei denen der Spielfluss nie verloren geht. Es verbindet Erkundung, Kämpfe, Crafting und Charakterentwicklung zu einem Gesamtpaket, das mich über viele Stunden hinweg begeistert hat. Für Fans von Fantasy-, Survival- und Rollenspielen ist es eine klare Empfehlung.

It is a game unlike any other! I am not exactly sure how to describe it because it feel familiar but so different at the same time. It has elements of a Bethesda game (Skyrim or FO4) where you can literally go anywhere you feel like and completely ignore the quests and main story. The map is HUGE and unfinished! There is base building and material collection like ARK or Rust in an open world PVE environment. So many different materials and decorations! You can build a base from scratch in your favorite location, or you can take over and repair existing structures! Something I also wanted to do in Skyrim! The combat is fairly decent! I have focused on a battlemage with a wand and staff, and tinkered with the bow and 1h sword and board. There is parry mechanics. There is blocking and dodging. It is not the most difficult on normal settings but it is not too tedious or boring either. There are settings to increase combat, not just numbers, but the AI of the enemies and the number of enemies. I have not tested these yet. The world exploration is a bit like Minecraft. You can dig a whole straight through a mountain if you want. There is a nice variety of biomes and enemies. There are neutral creatures you can tame as pets or livestock. The crafting system is a bit odd at first. There are your typical crafting stations but then they get paired with NPCs that you unlocked through the main quest. They live with at your base. Sometimes you need to craft by the menu of the NPC and sometimes you craft at the station. The stations are automated but slow by default for my preferences. This can be changed in the game settings. Unofficially, there are several mods available. I have not experimented with modding yet. The game runs extremely smooth! I have played single player and multiplayer hosting locally. I have not tried playing on a dedicated server. There are servers to join built into the game. You can spends hours just decoration your base and building things. You can spend hours mindlessly exploring and fighting. Exploration is fun as there is jumping off high points and gliding like Zelda Breath of the Wild. There is a double available early through the talent tree. Highly recommend it! You can literally double jump your way up mountains or out of the Enshrouded areas with ease. Oh, the talent tree! There are some fun and interesting options to build the character you want for the playstyle you want! You can mix and match archetypes as you desire.

It is a lot of fun, I played this game with my fiance and beat the game, about to start a second run, then when it comes out on console we are going to play it with his friends as well. We were able to go into our own skills that we enjoy and he was able to play a tank like character and I was able to play more range which was more comfortable for me. There are plenty of different characters you can go into that fits for you and that you can enjoy! I highly recommend it!
