Enjoying just crafting massive complex structures. Fuck the Lake. Fuck that place to hell and back. Most evil, awful place in the game.
Was thinking of making a base on the lake. No?Enjoying just crafting massive complex structures. Fuck the Lake. Fuck that place to hell and back. Most evil, awful place in the game.

Cohh seems to have finished the game after 80 hours and he’s saying it’s one the best game in the genre.
I've never understood the appeal of exploring a tiny world filled with giant bugs. I would never buy this game in a million years.
I'll try it out sometime though since there's a story mode. Not expecting a ton, but I've never played it.
Dang, I gotta try this sometime soonEven though me and my friend tried it a few times when it was in ea, we decided to start over with 1.0. We don’t get to play it too much - around 8-10 hours a week but I guess we are somewhere half-way through now.
I know it has tons of players but, damn, it isn’t been talked about enough. Just pure joy exploring all the corners of the backyard and caves below.
The art style creates an illusion that it is a kiddie game but it is anything but. Super challenging, unforgiving and does’t hold your hand at all - at the time when open world games pretty much tell you everything you need to go and point you in the right direction, Grounded let’s you figure it out on your own. For example, you find a chest but there is no key. Good luck with that! You just need to explore, find hidden areas and hopefully find a key hidden area somewhere relatively close by.
The story is way darker than what you would expect from a Honey, I shrunk the Kids inspired scenario and the combat has hours and hours of learning curve.
There is a sophisticated RPG progression system that rewards you if you just explore and find new stuff. It’s also ocassionally very funny in that somewhat cynical Obsidian kind of way.
For me it is kind of perfect and I would not hesitate to call it one of my favourite games ever.
Will you do single player or with friends? There is a certain charm playing alone and I do that when the friend can't make it, so I just upgrade our base and craft some stuff, but combat is a lot easier with a teammate as you can aggro while the other one attacks relentlessly from behind.Dang, I gotta try this sometime soon

The funny thing is that yesterday we were just goofing around, doing all kinds of non-essential things and I said to my friend that I'm so not in a hurry to finish it, because I simply enjoy it too much.Rolled the credits a few days ago. My first survival game.
Must say due to lack of hand holding, it was similarly satisfying as finishing your first Soulsborne game

Where did you build your base, if you don't mind me asking? We built one right at the beginning next to the strange machine on one of the more elevated spots, but I'm not sure if that is the best idea.
We built near Oak tree.
With a high structure to connect zip lines to all parts of map so we could farm resources faster.
Hopefully you can see in background.
Agree, we also took our time. It's a very relaxing game. Music, base building, exploration etc really is calming, I can spend hours just collecting resources and base building.
Probably single player. Multiplayer would be great but is difficult with my current lifestyle and living situation. I can play Splatoon 3 with randoms but thats probably it.Will you do single player or with friends?

I have no clue, to be honest. I know there are three difficulty settings. I guess the easiest one (Mild) would be more to your liking. I mean, you can't really progress in the game without killing stuff (well, you can find certain corpses here and there and loot them)can i turn off enemies and still earn achievements? the enemies are so annoying
