Valheim is an absolute slog at times. Difficulty spikes are brutal in each new biome, you’ll rarely get a moment of peace to gather resources, and you’ll almost certainly be ambushed by a sea serpent as you struggle against uncooperative winds. That sea serpent’s goal is to delete the hours you spent gathering ore and sink it to the briny depths.
Enshrouded gives you a wing suit and says, “let’s go flying weeeeeeee.” You’ll eventually unlock a grappling hook and there’s a double jump in the skill tree.
Enshrouded does have difficult parts, but the general vibe is a good fun time. Valheim’s vibe is an eternal struggle against an unfair and uncaring world.
Both games are good, but they’re good in very different ways.
I ragequit Valheim at one point because of the base attacks. I think it was the bats.
They flew in and killed all of my tamed 2-star boars. That was literal weeks worth of work to find, capture, feed, and domesticate … all deleted in an instant.
