Enshrouded - Combat Gameplay

[@umbrellacorporation8932]

The most interesting thing in this game is the construction mode, if it is correct that it comes with construction in voxels that puts this game in a very high top, I look forward to its release

[@maxpower8549]

I would like to see free build but also something like blueprints like in dragon quest builders

[@beizelby5867]

This looks amazing! A HUGE congratulations to the Devs!

[@dominicrocchi2770]

This has quickly overtaken several other games on my radar. My biggest gripe with Valheim is how janky the combat is, so this looking pretty responsive (albeit with some rigid looking animations at times) is super exciting!

[@gw8871]

Janky? Thought Valheim did a pretty great job. Especially modded. Definitely gonna keep this game high on the radar list though

[@KYLExHAEVN]

Combat does look stiff but responsive like you said, something they can update over time. The base building and terraforming is what's really catching my eye right now. Looking forward to this one 👍

[@cristi724]

Valheim having janky combat is the understatement of the year. The combat in Valheim feels like your internet just went down and your bluetooth mouse is running out of battery.

[@indospartan]

If you like this game, try Grounded. I'm So impressed with that game and it's base building, combat etc. It plays like a dream.

[@BenjiPOTF]

​@@indospartanyea grounded is great, but from what I understand it's only PC and Xbox exclusive no? Or did they announce more platforms? Regardless that game is even better with friends.

[@Dondingo4]

Loving everything I'm seeing guys! The only gripe I have is that I hope you improve the animations for a lot of things. It looks a little rigid and clunky, but I know it's still early. I'm super excited!

[@itspappy]

This looks incredible! Great work. Looking forward to trying it out.

[@devilnigiri]

you peeps should add the a pick up body mechanic. That way if someone is playing stealth they can hide the bodies so that patrolling enemies don't find their fallen comrades and get alerted. Just food for thought. Btw I absolutely love everything being shown with the game. I haven't been paying this close attention to any news or updates about a game in a while. Keep doing an awesome job

[@dokuujin1851]

I'm really looking forward to this game, dude. Not gonna lie, the combat system could use a little more "weight" to it, the lack of impact behind attacks make it look like it'll feel clunky, but no any worse than valheim. Still though, even with a bit of clunk the combat looks pretty damn fun, and the exploration and voxels are incredible.

[@zbigniewzaraza3571]

Looks interesting: + building options + leveling and skills tree + crafting + combat options We're waiting for open beta :)

[@MattheusLondero]

Looks really cool so far. My only concern is the enemy barely showing a reaction to being riposted after a parry.

[@rhoarke]

My concern was the enemy showing no reaction to the guy smashing through the roof directly behind him.

[@entelin]

It's obviously pretty rough at this stage. Hopefully it will get better fleshed out, the building looks good, but the combat looks very stiff and uninteresting. I would also point out to the devs that the path of exile node style progression is really not a good system. It's visually unintuitive and inevitably difficult to balance and evolve over time. You're better off making well thought through and polished classes, it's far easier to make a compelling coop experience this way, look to ffxiv for an example of great class design. If you want a more free system, then look to Nioh or Elden Ring, but that inevitably will not work as well for coop. Combat is one area I really feel that the survival genre has never done well, it's always very basic and uninteresting. You have a great building system, but if that's the only thing that distinguishes you then it's still mostly going to be an L. I'd love to see a game that combines a coop version of nioh & eldenring like bosses, with a great class system like ffxiv, and the exploration/survival aspects of valheim/et all. Make sure to always be focusing on the gameplay, at the end of the day building systems in many other survival games, while simple, and often janky are "good enough". What keeps most players in the game is the gameplay & progression, above all, that's what you need to get right. Fully destructible environments also provide numerous opportunities for AI problems, boss cheese & jank, so it's not obvious to me that allowing that everywhere all the time is automatically a good idea.

[@tall1oN]

@@entelin why balance its a game about fun, who cares if you put in 20 hours to grind levels and get a one shot build you should be able to play it, if you dont want to use it because its to op and you dont have fun use another build. its a coop game not an esports pvp game.

[@entelin]

@@tall1oN I said the node system "is difficult to balance", it is. I didn't give an evaluation of the relative importance of balance in a pve game. Obviously not as important as other things, but any game tries to be balanced to a degree regardless. This is one of several issues I mention with the node system.

[@hardbrocklife]

​@@entelinI dont disagree with your premise, though I dont have the same expectation as you. I agree there needs to be difficulty and some grind. Ppl who have aversions to those things are the same people that binge it with some cringey friend, get to end game in a weekend, and start complaining about content drought. I want something challenging, with a slower but purposeful progression, with VERY divided specializations. Its rewarding to progress and specialize a build, and if you play with a group, be an asset to that group. Too much low barrier to entry "friend meta" games out right now. Those ppl can go play Minecraft and be discord gigglers.

[@kennethsmith5383]

I like the look of this so far! Soulslike confirmed 😂 The enemies need to respond more to this hits because the dude going from glider to roll to hit had that enemy unphased.

[@matsug5704]

This looks very interesting to play with friends! already on wishlist !

[@radioactivegamer564]

Hi Keen Games, I'm really happy to see such a beautiful game and the awesome mechanics that you've put into it. However, I'm worried that the grenades seen between minute 1:15 and 1:20 are causing too much damage to the environment. Those holes are 2m deep, which doesn't make sense for a grenade. Please don't take my comment the wrong way; it's just my concern that it might destroy too much of the environment. Thank you for reading this, and I hope you consider this feedback. Thank you and your team for creating this game, and I will definitely play it when it comes out. Have a great day! 😊👍

[@booniversegaming]

I'm guessing there will be ways to additively manipulate the environment too. I'm sure we'll be able to fill in the holes.

[@martinmccarthy3675]

@@booniversegaming There are. They showed a clip of a dude who build a Sphinx using just terrain manipulation or most of it was.

[@maxpower8549]

They say it is zelda meets valheim, but i feel like there is also some inspiration from dark souls and dragon quest builders. I just love that you have a skilltree and "classes" or roles, that and the combat system is exactly the thing i miss in valheim

[@sammyshehole]

This looks amazing. More excited for this than just about anything else, AAA or otherwise.

[@anotherslowtown9601]

this game looks absolutely amazing. i feel like i've been waiting for this ever since fortnite survival mode let me down. i cannot wait to play this game. keep up the good work devs!

[@MariaPuchkova-p9q]

Looks cool, goes straight to my wishlist

[@paulkocherhans608]

I know it's still in development, hope they add some more animation/life/reactivity to the enemies. Some pacing/side to side bobbing or steps could be good to fill in the gaps between enemy attacks, so they don't feel too stiff or robotic between attacks. Overall excited to see how this goes :D

[@umbrellacorporation8932]

The more it looks like Valheim, the more I fall in love 😍🥰

[@CarecaPlayer]

This game became my favourite game right now! I can't wait to play! I'm so excited !!!

[@mefi100]

This looks so promising and awesome! Please devs do take your time and polish this before releasing, we can wait!

[@ThousandYearWinter]

The simple but unique UI of the game is awesome (Like in skill trees and inventory)

[@nanahaygen9301]

Enemies could use some more life/reactions but this looks amazing

[@zander]

Einfach nur geil! Ich freue mich sehr auf das Spiel und bin gespannt, was ihr noch alles abliefert!

[@Loveodor]

Would be cool if there was PVP to some capacity, makes me think about approaching the game like you would with minecraft with friends. Splitting up, building bases and fighting among each other. Would be a super cool concept.

[@matimusmaximus]

I used to love Landmark, this has so many similarities but so much better. I hope we can be fantasy races!

[@TheClassicMufasa]

From what I have seen base building looks super clean lets hope they polish the combat a bit. Very good base foundation but seems a bit lackluster.

[@SubFlow22]

Really enjoying this game so far, can't wait to see what the future holds for it.

[@Jayy8Bit]

Personally, this game seems like it hits all the right notes when it comes to combat, exploration, building, etc.. I can't wait to get my hands on this one.

[@marlon.aicomposer]

Oh gosh, I'm very satisfied with this game, please keep this fullcare atmosphere about the early access players feedbacks.

[@The_Fictionist]

This is a sleeper candidate for favorite game this year if it lands as fun as it looks. I don’t feel like it’s getting hyped like crazy but I’ll be shocked if it isn’t 10x more fun than a massive AAA game like D4 at this point.

[@digytl]

there was a preview with "punching" are there going to be any fist type weapons?

[@bridgetonowhere]

This game looks great, especially the building. However, I heard the devs also made Portal Knights which had a lot of save corruption issues that they never bothered fixing. I'll be waiting for reviews before I even consider purchasing Enshrouded because save corruption is my #1 dealbreaker.

[@FFeeLiT]

Stab animations for parry counter and sneak attack would be very impactful for the game.

[@BasedChadman]

No heavy / secondary attacks?

[@empire5235]

Has been on my wishlist for a while now.

[@oabeljoga]

This looks amazing! Congratulations with the great work!!

[@zacherycopeland7808]

this information is getting me pumped i cant wait to get into this world you guys are making

[@lstrange5808]

Excited to play this one day! Keep up the great work! 🦄

[@Karlin_Mana]

Thank you for this informative video. I was on the fence about buying this game because building seemed a lot of fun but not the combat. Now that I have watched this now I see clearly that the combat is more of a decoration to the game. It isn't thrilling, it isn't hectic, it doesn't require you to focus either.

[@ruorick]

This is shaping up to have something of everything I'd like in a co-op game.

[@utmastuh]

@@Enshroudedgame When's the building video dropping? Is there a way to sign up for alpha/beta or does everyone have to wait for early access?

[@artua7461]

I agree with other commenters, the grenades do too much terrain damage. That's my only real complaint lol, everything else is just nitpicks. Wishlisted this, really excited to see what's done here, awesome work!

[@ZcytheGaming]

Feel like they saw Everquest Next and said, "Fine I'll do it myself" but actually possible. This is no on my watchlist. Best of luck to your development.

[@esideras]

Looks really cool, no idea what's going on with the jerky rubberbanding when strafing while locked on but I'm assuming you're working on that. Everything else looks solid, might need some touching up on animations.

[@fireblade-cp8uw]

Damn. Looks so good. So where's the pugilist/fist fighting/weapons?? ...hello? .... Back to modded minecraft..

[@kuhn9570]

0:26 If we can block enemies attack with and without shield so player who use shield block an attack cost less stamina than without shield. Or player who use shield block an attack doesn't get damage and player without shield block an attack still get damage but less.

[@sentinel5020]

looks promising, one thing that I noticed is the main character stuttering while walking in nearly every shot. especially noticable at 0:16 . Seems like 2 or more systems fighting with each other.

[@MrBearMia]

Very convenient that the player encountered that deaf enemy and as a result was able to use a pickaxe on the floor above to break into the house without being heard! But joke aside, looks like a lot of fun.

[@Zelk360]

This looks a lot like another game that never came out on Steam. I had it on my wishlist for a very long time, but then all of a sudden the game was gone. It's not that the graphics looked the same, but certain parts of the map that look the same. That other game had some sort of tall rocky hill surrounded by forest with a cave/indent under the rocky hill, with a graveyard and some skeletons in it. It was also a survival crafting ARPG. I doubt this is the same game, finally coming to fruition, but if it is, that's awesome. This looks good. On my wishlist now! :)

[@Enshroudedgame]

It's probably not us or this game, but we hope Enshrouded scratches this itch for you!

[@Biesrot]

only suggestion is give the skill nodes in the skill trees a unique design for each skill / passive group as it would make it easier to navigate

[@Enshroudedgame]

That's actually been implemented last week! The work continues B)

[@leaf16nut]

[@DemonizedAlucard]

This game looks amazing, hopefully with time it will be ported to consoles as well!

[@florfernando346]

Looking good, I hope factions improve in quantity, and quality, for example, have collectors, nomads, merchants, mercenaries, etc. wandering about and having an effect in the world. Also, having the possibility to build a post at your base in order to interact with each faction and there being subsequent effects by doing so, some positive and negative in relation to rival or allied faction(s)

[@0nEOKS0ck]

Would love to see gauntlet/fists/hand to hand combat

[@zwippie92]

Looks good aside from a few minor things. Looking very much forward to play this, hopefully with some friends.

@@Enshroudedgame oh dont get me wrong im playing conan as we speak, but theres a lot of things wrong with conan, im just hoping enshrouded does conan but better!

[@Richard-pt9gi]

Looks like a dream game to me! Everything is amazin! Can we upgrade the wing suit to a soaring aircraft, like a hang glider? The wing suit in this gameplay and world context is the best.

[@AshWolfPath]

So this looks like THE game I have been waiting for. My future addiction

[@lukewhosback]

wow damn.. is this a dream? wishlisted immediately

[@irecordwithaphone1856]

This looks really good, but I think the UI could use some changes. The boss health bar at 2:50 is a good example, it looks very simple and blocky with that white gradient effect too. But I also see it's early access and I think overall it looks great It would be cool if when slashing an enemy, their health bar actually has segments come off like sliced chunks

[@Enshroudedgame]

The UI has already evolved a bit and will continue to! Thanks for your suggestions!

[@forest_hobo]

Can anyone tell me can you play as an assassin? And is there dual wield option? I know there is assassin skill tree but that alone doesn't nessecarily mean you can play sneaky snake

[@Acarinn]

Why is the player model so jittery when strafing?

[@jacobpalomino6388]

This game looks amazing already I just hope it runs smooth 🙏

[@rimurutempest117]

You know, this game reminds me of that Conquest lord of the ring game, it has the same vibe gameplay-wise.

[@tobiashagstrom4168]

Ah yes, to surprise my enemy, I shall sneakily pull out my pickaxe, and quietly smash up the ceiling of this house, so I can get behind him without him hearing me approach!

[@lolStopthetrolls]

Are Greatswords and maybe Spears or Pole axes/Halberds gonna be a things?

[@controlschemekeaton]

Definitely interested but that lock on strafe stuttering Definitely needs fixed. But hey looks great!

[@1000MilezAhead]

I'm sad to see the skill tree still includes what most people feel should be a part of base combat/movement, such as double jump and sneak attack etc. Not only does this make base combat feel worse than it has to, but it also makes leveling feel worse when you have to spend level ups on is basic functionality stuff. Still hoping they change this sooner rather than later. Otherwise, game looks so good and I'm not even that big a survival game fan, usually because the combat sucks and I'm not much for building. Can't wait to play full release.

[@Aetrion]

Sooo... this is Elden Ring + Everquest Next + Valheim. This might just be one of the best games ever conceived of.

[@gronkymug2590]

You can glide down to enemy camp giving you element of surprise... They did not look surprised, nor easy to kill while doing that :)

Looks great, just touch up those walking / strafing / gliding animations so it's not juttery. Also, add icons to the skill tree unlocks so we can tell what type of unlock it is. Really hope this comes to PS5!

No lo he jugado, pero ya amo este juego

[@LoganAlbertsChannel]

This looks hot! I'm excited. The UI that opened with the cauldron looks like Valheim's but with more room to breathe. So excited for the grappling hook and glider / wing suit. Are there any oceans/seas/lakes/rivers in your map?

[@booniversegaming]

That's a good point. I'd like to see how they've dealt with water physics in a voxel based game.

[@LoganAlbertsChannel]

@@booniversegaming I hadn't thought of that. My favorite thing to do in valheim is build next to water though

How will food be treated in this game Will it be just as a buff before fighting? Or constantly an issue as in Valhiem to have higher HP and stamina?

[@Enshroudedgame]

It will be closer to Valheim than, say, DayZ or Minecraft hardcore. Food = buffs
