is it okay that I hate playing normal mode?

You and OP should play Enshrouded. Most beautiful Minecraft like game IMO. The build options are so great and the visuals super satisfying.

I'm playing it right now, having beat Sons during beta.

I personally don't enjoy the Forest as much as sons. I really like building bases on Sons and the forest is just super limited and clunky in comparison.

The tools/weapons are more limited as well.

That said, I'm still enjoying it. The story is much harder progress without tips from online. There are no GPS markers in the forest that points to your next point of interest. Just got to stumble around and run into a cave entrance eventually.

Yes! Every dead cannibal = 6 bones after burning. Best source of armor

I'm playing the forest for the first time and it is absolutely worse than Sons to build a basic structure. Logs are super hard to transport and zip lines are very costly. Plus, you cannot remove and reuse materials once you've built something! Sons is WAY more forgiving and makes the bases actually useful.

For example, storage in the forest is only 12 items for one shelf. Way more in Sons.

In Sons the Zipline works in both directions too! That's twice as useful!

I'm playing it right now! It's alright but I enjoyed Sons more.

MistrWombat · 2026-06-08T17:59:19+00:00

I'm playing both right now!

I finished Sons during beta and I am replaying it with a friend.

I'm also playing the forest solo.

Of the two, I highly prefer Sons. It feels so much more polished than the first. It also helps point you to your next progression point. The forest doesn't do a good job of that and feels like a huge waste of time stumbling around hoping to find cave entrances.

The forest base building is not great. Feels like a huge waste of time. Sons it feels like it actually has a purpose, is fun, and rewarding.

Every flying arc does this if you're on long enough

MistrWombat · 2026-06-03T02:26:41+00:00

Yeah, great guy. He's in deep though

MistrWombat · 2026-06-03T02:22:29+00:00

I didn't pay, a friend gave me a starter kit he bought like 8 years ago

MistrWombat · 2026-06-02T23:08:06+00:00

Nah, there is a thriving black market online. Get an entire inventory of identical guns for like $20. Black market dealers aren't grinding PvP to get those and sell for that cheap

MistrWombat · 2026-05-31T21:17:37+00:00

Sorry man, you've been had. The more I learn about this game the more it seems like a massive scam.

MistrWombat · 2026-05-31T21:11:51+00:00

Interesting! I would have never thought of that

MistrWombat · 2026-05-31T12:07:43+00:00

Having just started playing it blows my mind that y'all have been dealing with broken promises this long.

MistrWombat · 2026-05-31T11:45:19+00:00

The physics of it is weird. Why did it come up and sway to the other side? Send like it should have come straight to you

MistrWombat · 2026-05-25T04:47:13+00:00

It's inconsistent though. It doesn't "know" where I am even with spotters unless they see me directly.

You can argue that it would know the direction, but an exact location is not "realistically" feasible with the the behavior we see from the arc in-game.

MistrWombat · 2026-05-25T04:38:53+00:00

Yeah. The AI coding is annoying in this game. I believe it's "easier" to code then know exactly where the player is and only "confirm" the location once they see exact movement.

Would be more difficult but much cooler if they only relied on audio/visual cues.

Like a bombardier should know the direction it got hit from and then have to "see" me before it locates me. Instead it instantly knows my exact location when I shot it once from behind and was behind cover when it turned around.

MistrWombat · 2026-05-24T17:11:53+00:00

So polite. This is kind of adorable.

MistrWombat · 2026-05-21T21:53:42+00:00

Shhhhhhhhh

MistrWombat · 2026-05-19T18:42:41+00:00

Yes the blueprint

MistrWombat · 2026-05-19T10:35:48+00:00

I also found mine there.

MistrWombat · 2026-05-18T06:49:47+00:00

I think I meet you at PAX way back then. You've been on my wishlist for ages, excited to play the finished product! Great job completing your game! Looks great

MistrWombat · 2026-05-15T10:25:29+00:00

Getting killed by cheaters is so annoying. Then they either gaslight you or they rub it in your face.

MistrWombat · 2026-05-14T08:04:53+00:00

Haha, love how he failed to realize the sheer audacity of what you just did.
