PALWORLD vs ENSHROUDED - Direct Comparison

the survival genre has gotten two new gems over the past few weeks power world a game where you ens slay you knockoff Pokémon to do your bidding and and shrouded a more grounded Survival game with its roots planted in deep fantasy and World building so in this video guys I'm going to be comparing the new Survival game power world to the other new Survival game in shoud and see how they stack up against one another when it comes to the attention to detail between these two games and I know these games are quite different from one another but they are both survival games so I thought it'd be fun to compare them and I do whatever the hell I want on this channel anyway so here we are odish beginning with some plant physics as you can see here in pal World whenever you harvest a plant the plant itself poofs into a cloud of dirt and then the leaves rain down until they disappear while an then shrouded the plant itself explodes and the twigs and leaves gently blow away in the breeze a't that cool and while we're on the subject of plant physics and power world your character can't interact with the grass or bushes as they walk through them as the plants do not interact with the character's movement at all while this isn't the case with en shrouded as the grass moves as you walk through it and the branches of the bushes twist and bend as you interact with them now let's move on to player combat between the two games now melee combat in power world is pretty interesting because instead of just gently trying to capture these Pals you instead beat them down with bats and bows until you can catch them or harvest them when they have this little KO symbol going over their eyes though I do have a feeling that those eyes don't mean that they're koed because I just harvested meat off this dude while I can only describe a shouted melee combat as being a bit more souls esque where you can change the tide of paddle with a well-placed Parry or combat rooll but I did notice a cool feature where if you defeat an enemy in the grass the grass around the enemy kind of dies and goes away but then once the enemy disappears the grass grows back it's a pretty cool Effect one thing I found a little interesting is that whenever you're harvesting wood in pow World whenever you chop down the tree the tree itself falls through the ground and all the leaves and twigs and branches break off and fall through the ground as well it doesn't look too bad but what I find interesting is that it in shrouded it basically does the exact same thing I just find that interesting I also wanted to show a quick comparison to the bow hunting between the two games as you can see here in power world whenever you aim the bow the camera Zooms in really close to the character it's a really stylistic point of view of you aiming your bow whereas in in shrouded whenever you aim your bow it's not as impressive the camera kind of centers on your character and I'm not saying and shrouded looks bad but it's not nearly as stylistic or as impressive as power world I also want to show a comparison of how the Shadows work between the two games and as you can see here in power world this campfire that I'm sitting next to does not cause my character model to cast a shadow whereas the Sun in the sky box does cause my character to cast a shadow and what I find interesting about this is that just like the tree models being the same between the two games the Shadows are the same as well as you can see here in in shrouded the campfire does not cause my character model to cast a shadow while the sun and the Sky Box does two survival games GES made by two completely different teams sharing things like this I've always find interesting and since these are survival games I wanted to see if there was any interesting cooking animations between the two games and there are as you can see here in power whenever you cook something over a campfire there's a cool animation of you frying the food in a frying pan and it reminds me a lot of breath of the wild and shouted has unique cooking animations as well and I'm just glad that the days are long guard in survival games where like Arc you had to cook your food by putting the food in the campfires inventory and it just magically appeared cook this is much better and since we're playing with fire I wanted to compare what would happen whenever you stand in your campfire between the two games and as you can see here in power world there's a pretty decent animation of flames being rendered all over your character it looks pretty good whereas it ens shrouded there's no flames that catch on to your character your character just starts like poofing smoke and taking away damage I mean it doesn't look super bad but power world in its anime style looks better and more stylistic I also wanted to talk about one of my most requested features in survival games and I'm happy to say that both of these games have it the ability to sleep in a bed and and go from night to day and as you can see here in power world whenever you sleep in a bed the camera Fades to Black and then poof it's Sunrise whereas it is shrouded it handles it a bit differently whereas when you sleep in a bed it fasts forwards time so that it reaches the dawn more quickly and now the last thing I wanted to compare in this video is the water physics between the two games and I searched high and low all over and shrouded just to find out that there's actually no lakes or rivers or oceans in in shrouded and I would have just throw this comparison out but I was so impressed with how stylistic and Anime like the power world water animations are whenever you Splash it looks great and I love when you climb out of the water you can actually see the little droplets of water bouncing all over your character onto the ground I know that in shoud it doesn't have water so it's not really comparison but I want to show this part of power world off because it looks so great well guys this has been my direct comparison of Po World versus in shrouded both of these games I feel are fantastic survival games they like I said at the beginning of the video they are very different from one another they focus on very different things but they each do their own things very well I love catching Pals in pal world and using them to battle to catch bigger Pals and also it a shrouded I love like the environmental storytelling that world actually feels really handcrafted I I enjoy both of these games for their own reasons and I as I always say when it comes to these direct comparison videos I'm not trying to say that either of these games is better than the other I've really enjoyed my time with both of them and I hope you guys do as well but guys let me know down in the comments what do you guys think are you guys playing in Tred are you guys playing power world which do you prefer let me know down in the comments but guys that's all I have for this video and I'll catch you guys on the next one see [Music] [Music] you oh
