Keen Games thanks its many players with a new video that provides gaming tips and shares thoughts on the Early Access launch and the future of Enshrouded.
Now that Enshrouded has launched Early Access, developers Keen Games are excited to share some tips and tricks for the many players who have ventured into Embervale or plan to do so soon. The team is extremely grateful for all the player feedback and plans to soon reveal its Road Map for the coming months regarding Early Access. They also thank the community for allowing Enshrouded to reach the top 10 in the ranking of best sellers and most played games on Steam, as well as for having reached more than a million and a half players in the days that followed the launch of early access.
Beginner Tips from developers
With Enshrouded now available in Early Access, the dev team is sharing some of their favorite tips and tricks with players, to ensure they have the most engaging experience possible while exploring Embervale. The video outlines some of the many ways players can maximize their success. Abilities and skills can be added by spending skill points, earned with XP, whether through combat (by choice or accident), mining or expanding the map and allowing grinding to appear less monotonous. By befriending certain NPCs, you can upgrade your gear to suit your playstyle.
The team also shares environmental tips to make ingredients, such as resin, easier to find. Reminder: green = little resin, brown = lots of resin! Finally, the developers reveal a little more about the different types of Mist to ensure that players do not suffer the same fate as the creatures. Second-hand equipment may be useful for new players (and friends don't let friends go on an adventure ill-equipped.)
