One of my favorite things about Enshrouded is the fact that we can clip items through walls and other objects. So many other games make the build items have massive collision boxes.

its actually the easiest way to build a home in this game. like being able to place down large blocks in the ground then instantly delete them allows you to dig out huge spaces really quickly.

Such a great building system. I love it. I watch these to inspire me because I suck at building. Then I go into my game, place a pillar and go “welp, there went all my creativity. Now, let’s go die a bunch”

Snacked up like a real fan! That's what I'm talking about! Glad you enjoyed!

the building is so intuitive in this game, im not as detail oriented as you, but i was able to do things that many other games dont allow, for example the fact that you can place a wall inside another wall to make more unique builds

When I playthrough this game, I'll definitely use this build as inspiration. I love making a cozy little hobbit hole. Excellent video as always Smitty :)

You are a true artist. A GOAT! I love this and cannot wait to create my own Shire in this game. I’m loving the game so far! I am also adjusting to the new building system, but so far am really happy with it. Thanks for sharing! ☺️

Can't wait to see more from you on this game!

I think its so important to have an idea in your head of what your end goal is, as it helps direct the build into a more natural looking final build. The way you tried to express the circle elements on the outside really helped sell the final vision, and I love how you pulled the earth back over the top, really helping it look built into the earth. Such a great video! I really gotta get this game, I love building and decorating houses in games!

It is quite solid for a co-op survival crafting game. And while it is meant to be played with friends, you can perfectly fine play it solo and it's not boring in the least. If you unlock everything in early access right now, you can build a ton of stuff already in a surprisingly big and varied game world with comparative ease. From a humble hut over large manors or even straight up castles, although it still lacks many decorative elements. A lot more easier if you use a trainer to spare yourself the tedious resource gathering for bigger builds. And you can build quite big, entire villages or massive castles with a flame altar upgraded to maximum diameter.

this video sold me on the game since one of my favorite parts in a survival game is building and wow does building have lots of depth. Nice video!

Thanks for the new video and for bringing a new game to my attention! It was a wonderful build.

What a wonderful build! I’m so thankful you included the interior design portion, as a fellow builder I got a lot of great tips for my current build. Thank you!

Love this game so much! What a cozy build!

THANK YOU for showcasing just how awesome this game really is

also great for renovating dilapidated homes. the building system allows you to fully repair any broken down building on the map so you can plop down a way point and get to work. theres a great spot near the first tower, its a big church with a farm next to it so lots of free soil. you can fully repair it and have a pretty sweet base thats actually part of the world. kinda limited by how many waypoint things you have but its a fun gameplay loop, getting all the right blocks, using the scaffolding to get the placement right, adding in features like wells or lighting....

Great work, it looks fantastic! Might have to check out this game..

im impressed by this game from your gameplay, never heard of it til this video

Okay, so I knew I absolutely adored this game after logging my first 6 hours, but seeing this just took my love for the game to the next level :-)

Really happy about the fact u start playing this specific game, hope for more interesting builds! Btw, i try to get inspiration from your valheim Edoras build and try to build same style colony in enshrouded. Slowly but steady progressing. for solo player with big ideas it's hard to progress fast lol... Anyway, peace buddy, will keep eye on your channel.

This looks so good! I should get back into Enshrouded.

thank you ! love it ! one of the best building games !

Had this video pop up into my feed and I have to say I am really glad it did, I am speechless. You have definitely earned a subscriber. Like you said, it's not a huge project, but it does a really good job of showing off the level of detail you are capable of achieving in this game. Still working on getting to that level myself, I've always been more of an efficiency over ascetics kind of guy when it comes to building in survival games but I have always wanted to build something that looks incredible like this. Unfortunately, habits are hard break, but this video definitely gives me some inspiration, so please keep up the great work.

I had no idea this game was even a thing and this one video sold it for me got to finish up some work and then will give it a try

Ok... this video has me convinced to buy this game, dang... So good!

This is so cool, I love how you have done this, great timelaspe kind of format. But still saying what you are doing.

really nice little place to live, l especially love the way you made the window, very clever use of the square frame, it gives it a sort of oriental theme but still works well

Great information! Thank you!

It seems this game was heavily inspired by Valheim. It's similar in a lot of aspects (for instance, it's not a hardcore survival, so food = buffs), you unlock recipes by finding the material (wood, rock, metal, etc). But it really builds on top of it. There's more traversal options, like a wingsuit and a grappling hook (although boats don't seem to be a thing, not sure yet, haven't been too far). There's much more lore, story and quests; building is better, you select the shape and material (already an improvement), but are not limited by the predefined shapes: you can do anything block by block if you wish, shaping it however you want. Building-wise, I think we'll see some crazy creations here as well...

@chloekaftan

4 ай бұрын

ehh... this game is far more casual than valheim is, in valheim you actually feel like you're in a survival game especially when you reach the plains biome, your base gets raided all the time and the raids get more intense once you start taking out the bosses, and you actually have a reason to turtle up and build defensive fortifications. whereas in enshrouded, the only real danger is from the shroud and even then it doesnt really feel dangerous since its not very populated. i'll definitely be spending a lot of time enjoying this game, but in the end i will still be going back to valheim.

@smittysurvival

Interesting Analysis of the two. I think that comparison of these games is at times overdone. Ensrhouded does borrow certain systems, but overall I'd say the two games just play completely differently. Enshrouded is more like a Survival-Fable, where-as Valheim feels more like a Survival-Soulslike. Preference of which is better is going go totally depend on the player, but I'd lean toward Valheim from an immersion standpoint.
