Enshrouded is an open world survival RPG that can be played solo or with up to 16 other players in which you must build a base, rescue NPCs, farm resources out in the world and craft evermore powerful gear to clense the world of a corrupting mist called “The Shroud” by locating and chopping down “Shrout Roots” which in turn grants you with skill points to help you take on harder bosses, different biomes and other challenges.
In my previous video I covered Enshrouded in a first impressions format however in this video I finish all of the content currently available in the game in this stage of early access and give my full pros and cons list review at the end, and yes, my opinion is actually quite a bit different after 50 hours than it was at 15.
Previously we created a character that surprisingly looked a lot like me, we awoke from the cinder vault and immediately got to exploring what appeared to be a vast mysterious world full of interesting POIs to explore, I built a house and was instantly blown away by Enshrouded’s building system, I learned that attacking explosive barrels with melee weapons probably isn’t the smartest thing to do and I cleared multiple POIs, looted chests and found myself rather baffled at the games loot system.
We ended the first impressions at level 12 after getting about half way through the forest biome with a set of mid game gear, let’s see how my opinion on Enshrouded changes are we take on the end game.
What do you think about Enshrouded so far? do you think this new open world survival RPG has potential with future updates or is the game too easy, do you agree with my full review? let me know in the comments below!

I'm sure Josh Strife Hayes will be extremely excited about a new Luckcatchers game.
I wish this game would be individual progression on dedicated servers. Sigh... what a stupid idea to be shared
wow really stooped low there peon game is 50% mixed and less then 100 reviews yet toke there money anyway for this stupid ad?
@@reinierdash9020 Mans got to eat.
DPS of the ranger and the melee is about the same since you're doing 3:1 or higher hits in melee
in that final temple for the glider, i gave up trying to find the switches and threw a dozen bombs at the door till it broke. love that the game lets you just do that if you want
The fat ladies that guard the entrance to that temple ? We tossed bombs at them till they fell into a very very very , did I mention it was a very deep hole ?
It was a hoot cause our tank fell into the twins hole , along with 20 odd wolves, took some digging to get the drops from the battle .
brute force baby!!! hahahaha
It would be great if you could collapse the tower with the grenades. Bring the chest to you.
Bro the shroud looks like it's covering up very bad graphics and just bad bad. What a perfect name to cover up of how borring it is
@@iAmNothingnessim sorry the indie early access game doesnt meet your standards for graphics
The world design and map traversing difficulty is due to not following roads. Roads almost always lead you to where you need to go and more POIs. It's one of the very first tips from very early/tutorial part of the game.
or yknow, just pickaxe a little. realizes he can dig down, doesn't dig up
cmon bruh you dont expect anyone to actually read the tutorial tips do you
@@ZM-dm3jg why wouldn't you though? If you don't know how to do stuff you're more likely to stop playing the game
I love that you can completely rebuild a damaged structure if you want. I made the mage tower my base and repaired all of it
as always a very solid review. i agree with your cons. for me its the first survival game i really enjoy, the building voxel based system is awesome and i am very happy for the developers to get such a good feedback for early access
Tllgg
im new to the channel there is something strangly soothing about your voice that makes it really nice to watch and chill too
Mister editor, I just want to tell you that I truly appreciated the HUH after peon said guillotine, you a real one
i love ur profile pic
thanks peon love the content, would like to see a vlog maybe once again
Great review. Now that the roadmap is available, I think it's worth making a video about. Expecially since there will be instances and instance dungeons, which should resolve the broken chest farming as it is now.
I'll check it out, instances do seem like a pretty solid solution, excited for the future of this game.
Great review! Keep up the really solid work.
been waiting for this ever since you got addicted during your first impressions lol. such a good game, can't wait to see where it goes too!
Another great review, thanks man!
I hope the company sees your video cause it has mad potential and I think you nail what i felt trying to get into it
The game is already really good in its current state. The building system is the real highlight. They just need to fix a few issues and add some more features and it will be great.
Totally agree about the map. I've found it very addictive gameplay but sometimes the terrain was very annoying. I didn't realize I could just leave the game to get out of the shroud so thanks for that.
Your content is unreal. Seeing how far you come is such an incredible achievement and glad to have watched and learned from you brother .
Only a few hours ago they posted a roadmap on the official discord that looks very very promising.
This. A really SOLID mix of 'game play' and 'rp' stuff on the Road Map. The Devs DO seem to be Listening!
ur mom
@@Drothen- My man 😂😂😂
Very nice review, TY.
This and your previous video made me buy this game and give it a try. For context i rarily buy games from other person's impression but you always give a fair and picky review. That being said i felt you excitement and fun throughout the whole experience. I hope you will continue your journey just as i start mine. :)
Time to visit Last Epoch buddy! Eagerly waiting for that review
GGs to the editor, i dunno why but stacking the cams when he said we are stacked cracked me up
Will definitely have my eyes on the upcoming updates. I loved how smooth gliding was and wish it won't get changed
Solid review!
See, and I love the traversing. I enjoy the highs and lows of the terrain, or having to pick out the correct path. Idk why, but it makes it fun to me.
Very lucid, thanks!
they just put out a roadmap and man I’m excited about it. It looks so good.
That wyvern you fought, it has strategy, when he is standing on two legs and charging if you fire rrow in his mouth, he gets stunned then then takes 3x or 4x damage from any source, so durability wasnt an issue there :D
I appreciate you taking the time to grind the game out and not pumping out a review week 1. Amazing video appreciate that a lot. Thank you
That Death Grips "yeah!" when you found the guillotine *chef's kiss*
Fair review mate. For me its a cracking time sink game even at this early stage but like you say it's still earlry access so hoping they can build more on the good start they've made. In their latest email to players the devs have given a idea of a road map for the year.
Coming this year items listed are;
Sharing and visiting bases
Create and share gameplay experiences
World events
Instanced dungeons
More biomes
Water
And for the rest of the roadmap there are mltiple things listed as coming, will list a few here;
Location improvements
Improved loot ui
Better stack splitting
Namable bases
Sitting on furniture
Townsfolk NPC's
Weather system
New enemies and bosses
Replayable world quests
Animal farming
Vanity system
So its looking pretty decent. You mentioned how good the mining is in the your review and i have to say i think its the best mining implementation ive used in any game, its outstanding.
Great video mate 👍
Yes! 30 minutes of anticipated entertainment! Very nice indeed
This is a really good revue, thanks. I am wondering if you plan on updating your review when major patches are released?
There's an upgraded well that is identical to the one at the ruined inn, and if you really need water in a pinch you can pick a well up and place it again to reset the timer.
Thank you for the content
That crit sword is fantastic for tanks with the battle heal skill
@@Badass4Life I saw a video on how mages just kill bosses in seconds, the poison spray. I prefer to play melee anyway in this game but after I saw that video I realized how broken it was.
i absolutely love your videos. youre fantastic
A roadmap was just posted in their discord, very promising updates for the alpha version of this game!
this game feels so much like new world visually
You can fast travel to the ancient spires and glide off them to travel around the map, instead of walking around.
Your videos have become my gold standard of whether or not I purchase a game, cheers man.
Ive found the battlemage and wizard with the fire damage and auras are amazing. Wand damage and an aura that deals damage to adds is op.
6:00, it's been discussed before but the general consensus is that the shroud is areas where there was once water so some of the odd map traversal stuff is expected as a result.
love your vids. always helpfull to know if the game is worthy to buy. Would you also do nightingale?
I'd imagine he will, but I've heard some rough things about that game in its current state.
Castle boss seems key to the game, I've beat him twice now but had to re-spec my stats to do it. Wands seem way OP and only need to carry a bow to hit the puzzle boxes in the spires. Future roadmap looks good, I'd like to see difficulty levels though.
Hope they add more elements to the Game like more Biomes, New Monsters, Finding more Survivers of Humanity and the Ancients, The Natives that aren't hostile to you, New Building Types, having the ability to clear the shrouded corrupted areas for good and etc.
That's part of their roadmap, it's very exciting!
I've put over 100 hours into this game so far and I agree with everything you've said here. The only reason I've stuck around is the base building, it's the best I've seen in a game like this and I can't wait to see where they go from here.
I played the demo before official release and it ran like ass on my system but that was before Xmas and haven't had my PC since so I can't say if it's better but when I get a new rig I'll probably get this just to build stuff lol
Man I lost myself in this like you did, prob 60 hrs, but I also agree with your cons, and pros. Well done
I really enjoyed your Valheim video! Since you last covered it it has had a lot of updates, you should check it out again!
Oh wow I was not expecting this game to be good. It look cozy game for chilling and hardcore adventuring if you want to and the theme magic and sword, my favorite.
Love the game. 130 hrs in before i eventually finished all the current content while also building a huge base. Worth every penny.
Great video ty.
Hey Peon!
Could we see a comparison between Enshrouded, Palworld and Valheim? ( maaaybe V-rising? )
I'd love to see some game key points compared such as loot / exploration / building system / combat / enemy types / gathering etc.
At the end, instead of pros and cons, seeing a top 3 for building and so on, having each building system having a grade let's say.
This can show where x game shines where the other gets shadowed etc, and showing which game would be best for one's needs.
Seems like a big project but it'd be a great piece of media. ( and you could say you've got the raw footage to compare it already, so maybe the work would be just getting it together and showing some text and thoughts on screen? )
Looking forward for your thoughts on this!
Thanks for all the great reliable information, as always!
pls play this more what a great game! could watch hours of this
Good video!
Man that con list is interesting. The game is awesome and yep it’s early access with only about a 1/4 released so far (according to devs). End game crafted gear is better than all looked gear I’ve found, maybe you don’t get as much health but the damage multipliers are worth it.
Thanks much Craig. It does seem to be a very fun game, but with some fundamental wonkiness. I'm not very far yet, and there's a new update coming soon...
yo, hope you are doin good mate. Just wondering what the status on "Life Is An MMORPG" pt.2 and pt.3 looks like (since the last one was 2 yrs ago). Are we going to get an update to that?
Did you hear about Andrew Gower's new MMO, "Brighter Shore"? I would love to hear from you about what kind of potential it has!
a solution for the shroud mechanic could be that once you enter a shroud the game will not save unless you exit again so even if you restart the game you always spawn before entering a shroud zone and before looting of course... and you can't teleport from inside a shroud.. (I did not play the game yet i don't know if the game does it already )
Some valid points. However you missed the construction / base building aspect of it, which allows everyone to be an architect or designer. It is extremely easy and fun, like a virtual Lego, and you can spend a lot of time playing just building houses, castles etc... Half of my play time was doing just that, including a tribute to Frank Lloyd Wright's Fallingwater house...
great video!!
do last epoch!!🙏🏽🙏🏽
After watching the entire video, I think I will definitely be picking up a copy of this game. Seems a chill way to spend some time and most of the cons seem more like early access growing pains to me.
i was doing 1500 to 2000 per wand attack. you just equip a wand and staff. hold q empty your mana and wand attack whilst hold Q (it will force wand attack when you dont have enough mana) was hilarious one shoting everything
You should do a revisit of conan exiles at some point if you're still craving that survival+rpg itch.
19:00 I don't think it was designed to make you restart to farm sparks. They respawn on their own too, so if you're playing 'normally' and gathering them as you come and go, you'll eventually farm all you need. The way the game handles 'logouts' is really weird, tho. Why not save the game state and reload from there? sounds kinda lazy, but I assume it'll get better.
Does that happen even when playing "offline"/solo?
@@aspectnato8077 I guess yes, because I play solo hah
So, without (mostly) using cheese mechanics. If you carry 4 scaffolds, and have 2 flame alters available, you can put an alter down at the base of a cliff. Climb the four scaffolds, cut away a section of wall, or build an outcropping, put your second alter down, dismantle your 4 scaffolds, and the 1st alter, port up to the remaining alter, rinse and repeat.
Yes it's a bit cheese, but it's faster than digging holes in the walls and climbing that way. You could also just bring a ton of the stone or wood blocks, and build stairs up the side of cliffs. Either way, building is your friend.
I went full battle mage and wizard with some trickster and it’s absolutely broken lol. Fire wand and ice/shock wand with infinite fireball staff to start off with
This game is going to be amazing in a year from now.
Love the Death Grips reference
Think about if we had a very big server with full PVP with mechanics to avoid huge lvl gaps between players. Would be the best PVP available
11:48 the "we are stacked" joke is incredibly stupid
I love it
Water is definitely a pain in the butt but you can pick up and place the well over and over for infinite water. Also there's so much loot in that tower break all the barrels also there are secrets you missed for silver and gold chests in those towers, and you can farm loot chests from other spots all day...
The difference in rating is expected as most new games are unknown and you get to explore. As you progress in any game the game becomes solved and at the end it just comes down to putting in the time to overcome the finals hurdles.
This is not bad by any means, just expected. All good games start off relatively easy and progress in difficulty until you have solved the systems, If a game starts off overly complicated or just flat out bad it loses most of its players before they can get hooked.
The extremely easy exploits for the gold chests and the shroud mechanic definitely need to be addressed.
Craig, just yesterday I saw the Ensrouded 2024 Roadmap which included community suggested and major items coming to Enshrouded this year. You might want to take a look, it probably got released just as you were uploading this video.
Maby the reset thing is a escale button for the prrogrammer...maby it was left by mistake...maby it was only meant to be sble to test the chests and shroud mechanics work xD
It’s one of my favorite games in years. Valhiem compared but the combat system is better in enshrouded.
Looking forward to more enemies, different character builds, and more difficulty.
9/10 for an early access game.
Good review pretty much matched my experience, world traversal frustrated me a couple of times. I did not use the quit exploit, so I found the loot sysyem not great, getting a blue sword that wasn't outclassed by legedaries in harder areas sucked. I would like to see more npc's, particularly in the world, with side quests and maybe more at the home base if you build housing for them. Npc's that could tend crops, wild stock, etc, not necessarily mission givers, other than build something or fetch quests. The main npc's should have companions, apprentices, maybe children, and family members in order to make bases more lived in, particularly when you have multiple bases and the few current npc's are spread thing. Other than that, it's pretty good for an early access title, considering some garbage triple titles. Oh and no water, rivers, lakes or sea???
Any idea if they will be wiping your progress when the game comes out of early access?
100% spot on
Pretty much agree as well, 240 plus hours here. Though the exploration as rather tedious as it can be, was really a joy. Added things would be , why is it a survival title? You do not have to eat anything, buffs are nice but not needed and if you wish, you only have to craft whats needed for quest and crafting progress. Only survival aspect would be shroud time. Also things like the farming soil and such, minus time, there is no real benefit. I just find myself planting in a big open field and running off to do quest or gather materials ect. Come back harvest and rinse. Great base game still needs some tweaking and it was a rather good experience til it wasnt if you know what I mean.
I would love an MMORPG that looks like this game.
Check out Nightingale next, it's similar
@Doogie Powers yes it is, it has a lot of the same mechanics but the setting is different, and maybe it addresses Peon's concerns about Enshrouded. I'd like like to see
Honestly I dont even know how you made it that far. After I cleared the first biome and saw the second was basically the exact same thing, I checked out. The map traversal is so painful I couldn't keep going. Taking over a pre-built farm was one of the highlights, for sure. Good pros/cons list. Didn't try wand/staff, if I play this again I'll give that a shot.
are you going for last epoch review again?
Glad the loot was mentioned as I think not enough are talking about it. The loot perks and stat values are all RNG but you only get like 1 or 2 rolls per hour unless you cheese it. It's like playing Division 2 or Destiny 2 and only getting one item per mission. If the loot is RNG we should be getting way more loot so we can have more rolls, otherwise make the loot static so there's planned progression.
I hope you end up doing a simmular video on granblue fantasy relink in the future, might not be your cup of tea though :)
I love that most people do not understand they are playing an upgraded Portal knights 😊
the building in this game is way above average for the genre and i really really hope they expand on that and add mod support.
pro tip smash the vases and everything gives you mad loot, iron bars, copper bars, ect...
Its an interesting game for sure
Agree with the pros and cons. I do enjoy exploring, but I found it extremely tedious and chore-like to have to traverse the shroud.
Thank you
Good job and fair review. IMO combat is one dimensional and clunky, fall damage should be removed entirely and stack size for items is way to small. But I enjoyed playing with friend very much. Immersion, graphics, lore, freedom to explore, glider and building mechanics are what make this game worth playing.
Will the progress reset on release?
Hey hope you see this comment. New to pc games and I was thinking of buying enshrouded but idk if this should be my first adventure rpg. Would this be a good first rpg game?
ABOUT THE WELL THAT YOU FORGET
WELLS WATER STACK RESPAWN IN TICKS, THINK A WELL CAN HOLD 3 STACKS AND EACH STACK HAVE 4 WATER
JUST BUILD MORE
New roadmap shows they are listening and looks like it could be a great fun game in the end.
For the most part, I agree quite a bit with your overall critiques and rating at the end. I would far prefer if the loot chests were not only just one reload away from new loot, and being able to reset flame alters made find new ones the most pointless endeavor. I slogged through the game with melee only, and it hurts to see just how much it underperforms compared to the the other options... yet somehow I kind of expected as much.
The biggest aspect I think I disagree with in regards to your notes at the end it is the talent tree being on the pros list. It has some nice nodes sure, and being the branching circle is interesting I guess, but I find it far too shallow for me to really sink my teeth into it by end game. There are nodes i want but have to waste many points on multiple costly expensive nodes I have no care for to get to. Want the barbarian trait for my 1H build? waste of points to get there. It might have just been because I was playing melee as well, but the stat nodes felt hardly impactful. The combat of course could improve as a whole as well, but you do say by decent by survival rpg standards I guess.
Perhaps it might just be because I feel so spoiled with customization with Last Epoch lately, it's hard to say in the end. Even thinking about say Skyrim Elder Scrolls V talent trees though makes me think they have more interesting choices on offer and those are old and somewhat simple as well.
But yeah, this was a great watch and it's nice to see you being real about your opinion of the game. There is quite a few who seem to be praising enshrouded a bit too heavily, though I am not implying it is a bad game by any means. :)
Ah, and that one moment you dug down to the shroud root! I just so happen to do exactly that as well because I could not be bothered to find the entrance and it was great to have that freedom!
14:38 close call, Peon
Short answer... Yes!, Long answer... Hell yes!:)
I played this game w/ one other person and we never backed out to reset things, instead everything just resets on timers. You just found an exploit around it :P. Playing as a tank and a ranger this game was MUCH slower paced than you've done it. Spent half the time just gathering mats to help make arrows.
