I'm to the point where I am "hungry" for a new game, but I have no idea what would be a good choice. I've been playing a lot of Raft, and now I'm to the point where I'm reluctant to move further through the story because the POIs get more difficult. I mean, I can do them, but I'm not sure I'm up for the frustration of driving a snowmobile again. Not that I'm ready for Temperance yet. I recently did Tangeroa so Varuna Point is next, I think. With all the underwater stuff. I will eventually do it, but I am not excited.
Last night I went back into 7 Days to Die and did the Navezgane Hospital job. I was happy that I remembered to immediately retreat after triggering the mob on the roof - it's so much easier to tackle them solo when they have to jump down to your level and then cross the skylights to get to you. But I'm to the point in that game where it's feeling a little more like "chores" than enjoyment - turn in a quest, sell some stuff, get a new quest, try to buy books but the trader doesn't have them, craft a bunch of ammo, go do a new quest, repeat. Oh and don't forget to check the dew collectors, the beehive, and the crops that probably need to be harvested and replanted.
Maybe I should build a new base so I have somewhere closer to the jobs I'm being offered. I've done that in the past and I don't love it, but it can make getting through POIs easier.
I feel like I should point out that I mainly like 7 Days to Die for things other than the shooting. I do like some peril in my survival crafting games, but I don't like it to be too big a piece of the mix, if that makes sense.
Anyway - looking for a survival crafting game. I tried Valheim but it did not suit. I like my survival crafting games a little easier to survive. I also don't like games that are too "cute." I would say Planet Crafter was right on the edge of being too cute for me - the animals were almost too much. Aloft was about right, but some of the parkour was a little rough.
So what is out there that is similar to Raft, 7 Days to Die, Planet Crafter, and Aloft?
