  • Hello everyone! Today we're back in Enshrouded and taking a look at a recent build I did for Enshrouded's first ever build competition- Architects of Wonder! Unfortunately due to the time constraint of the submission, I wasn't able to capture the full build process like I normally do, but I thought it'd still be fun to cover the final result and talk through some of ideas and techniques I used!
    The build competition has closed, and while I was able to make the top 25 cut, we unfortunately missed the top 13 prize pool as it was a very stiff competition! Congrats to the winners and hope you enjoy this build!

    It's so hard to create an active dynamic scene in still, but you've nailed it! Need more builds like that that capture a period in time rather than making still builds.

      Thank you so much! Yes it is quite a difficult think to abstract into a scene, but it's such a cool way to elevate a build and tell a story! Glad you liked it!

      Yeah, I'm an official Smitty fan boy 😅 Snacks and drinks are always at the ready.
      My skills are nowhere near Smittys, but I thank you for your kind words. I saw you support quite a few builders (which is really awesome), so I am not surprised that our paths cross here 😊
      It's always a pleasure to talk with you. See you soon 😉

    Wow, this is amazing!!! The details! A true artist. Thanks for sharing this. Am hoping the next building contest will be better; so many great builders couldn't even compete because of the short warning, the small build window, the ambiguous rules weren't helpful. Would love to see a well thought through contest. Our community is so awesome, so many creative people.

      Thank you so much! Yeah the contest itself became quite the debacle at the end 😂 really too bad because I think some of drama began to overshadow some really excellent projects, but hopefully it will be better next time! Enshrouded has an incredibly talented/creative community around it so I'm sure this is just the beginning!

    That is one awesome and creative build! Congrats on placing top 25!!! Way to go!
    Enshrouded is such an amazing game, I really enjoy it!
    I love and hate this build system at the same time though. 😅
    I love all the different, beautiful building materials and the furniture and all the decorative items. But what I hate with a passion is the fact, that we cannot just build from the gathered materials directly, but instead have to craft blocks or furmiture beforehand and then have to either use the hammer, hit tab and then hit alt and mousewheel to access and navigate the build menu, or, for furniture, drag it onto the action bars and then place them. Why two different methods for both, and why so many steps!?! Makes it feel so unnessesarily complicated.
    Just let us build directly from the materials and from one build menu!
    The 90° grid is a little bit of a pity as well, due to the voxel system, but on the other hand it lets us cut out small increments from build pieces, which is great for custom shapes. Same for the terrain materials obviously, which makes for amazing terraforming options.
    Pro's and con's as always. 😊

      Yeah Enshrouded has been a pleasant surprise for me! Not a perfect game by any means but I think it's got a lot of potential, especially considering it's only early access.
      The build system is definitely love/hate for me as well, and it took my awhile to get used to it, particularly after playing so much Valheim. It's a little clunky for sure, and needs some refinement, but it is capable of some really cool results. I would LOVE if they added a creative mode though lol.

    • @smittysurvival
      @smittysurvival  3 місяці тому +1

      Thank you! Great question on the metal blocks! - I did consider it, and tried experimenting, however as you'll notice the chain that I created has some really organic shape to it, and this can only be achieved by placing/carving terrain blocks (in this case stone) as they behave much different than the structural blocks such as metal which are much more rigid in the isometric grid of the voxel system. The metal could work in some instances, but in this situation I valued flexibility over texture.

    I am truly envious of creative people and it is awesome what you can do with the building system used in Enshrouded. Unfortunately, for me, I find the build part of the game to be the most frustrating and unrewarding process. It was as if the developers had a meeting and said, "What's the most frustrating part of building things in Valheim? Let's see if we can up that ante and make our system even worse!" Honestly, if they want you to be at a certain distance, angle and facing just to snap a piece in the right place, then they should have implemented a build camera that would enable you to stand in place and move the build view as necessary. Can't tell you how many times I've fallen off things trying to get just the right distance! But, with that said, it's obvious that other people do not have the issues that I have with building.

    • @smittysurvival
      @smittysurvival  3 місяці тому

      I totally get where you coming from. I'd say right now, when it comes to building, while Enshrouded is capable of really great results, the path to get there is a real pain... The whole system isn't a little rough. Don't get me wrong there are good things about it too, but it's in need of some updates. I'm hopeful that it will improve moving forward.

  • @vhaelen326
    @vhaelen326 3 місяці тому +2

    honestly im on the fence about enshrouded's building, there are alot of things i like and some BIG things i despise, the biggest downside for me is that building is locked to a hard square grid... im sorry but that works for minecraft (and similiar) but not for anything like enshrouded, the fact that its a HARD lock(what i mean by that is that this grid spans the entire map, you could also be locked to a square grid but each building individually can be rotated so in other words you can chose where you start and from there on youre more or less locked in) makes things even worse, ofc there are things that are great, the building being done with relatively small blocks which you can place individually or as larger pre defined formations is great, i hope in the future they come up with a system to let us build in our own formations, like blueprints etc

    • @smittysurvival
      @smittysurvival  3 місяці тому +2

      Totally get it. There are definitely pluses and minuses to this game, but for me coming from a game like Valheim where you have much more freedom to build, Enshrouded can feel super limiting. There are some things I do like though such as HD textures and ability to create organics like this Dragon. Will be cool to see how this game evolves

      Good observation! You have to use terrain blocks and then place items on top of them. Some items will change their axis slightly depending on the angle of the terrain, and then once placed, you can remove the terrain blocks so its floating.
