MODERATORS
Grounded was a sleeper hit, no question. Much better than anyone anticipated and the initial reviews weren't that great. But damn, it's been getting steadily more popular over time.
My only major complaint is it seems like the go into excessive detail for certain survival aspects of the game for realism but none of the actual bugs you fight make any sense. Like spiders living in packs and ORB WEAVERs walking around and attacking on the ground etc. I also feel the combat difficulty vs material progression is way unbalanced. Killing the stuff you need for better weapons and armor feels like a pretty monumental task if you aren't cheesing it.
Fair complaints.
