Thank you, I shared this video on Twitter. This was exactly what I was looking for. I play a lot of survival games on the console and heard about small land but wasn't sure about it.

I'm a little confused, in Smalland wood is easy to get - you get plenty of wood just lying on the ground in the starting area near the elder and it respawns every day. For stone there is a quarry full of it right next to Kalev, one of the first NPCs you get a mission to talk to.

In this video I had only just started and although there are lots of twigs, I was confused why you could not utilise and tools for harvesting from plants. It is a different method than I am used to. I now have a pickaxe so I can mine stone as well but I had to find a bull ant and again they are not overly common initially. I am a cautious player by nature so running off without being prepared does not come naturally to me lol

In all honesty they are not great games. I have done another couple of videos on Smalland since basically saying how I was wrong in most of what I said in this video. Smalland to me does feel like it has a smaller budget but at the same time, now, after playing for close to 200 hours, feels like a better game. It's weird

You can play Grounded in 3rd person as well. There's a hotkey (U I think if playing on PC)

In terms of the door in grounded, make sure you scan a weed stem in the science machine, you will be able to make a decent door from that out of weeds

Grounded is much more unique but man that game did a number on me. Something about the combat just never clicked, every spider was a boss battle. In Smalland once I got a decent tame it made things manageable, not trivial, but doable. If I recall correctly, Grounded doesn't (or didn't when I played) scale for solo play? So maybe it assumes you're in a party of 4? Maybe I should try again.
@DiceandDualsenses12 күн бұрын
Yeah, it doesn't scale for definite lol. Spiders etc are boss battles until you get high tier weapons (Like spicy imbued) Smalland is without a more traditional game (just shrunk) but you can tell the budget was a lot lower.

12:00 the grass and rocks do actually respawn if you completely remove them they just take several in game days so you do need to place foundations to permanently clear an area

One of my favourite things about Grounded is the customization choices, you can play however you want. I haven't played Smalland so I'm not sure game customization is even available
@DiceandDualsenses3 ай бұрын
There is basically customisation when setting up a world, such as friendly fire off etc. I will be doing some more videos on both in the future so hopefully they will give you more of an idea what is available

Played and beat Smalland and started playing Grounded on PS5 recently... Smalland seems very generic compared to Grounded... Grounded has given me some serious jump scares....

You can actually build with nothing in your inventory on ark. The materials just have to be in a dedicated tek Storage
