Grounded is a survival and crafting game about kids that find themselves in a miniature backyard world, originally on PC/Xbox and now on PS5
DF investigates Grounded on PS5 and Switch - how does the game compare to the original Xbox release? And how does cross-play work?
360 to 720 p
what did they do lol even on the ps5 its horrendous looking
Obsidian Entertainment’s Grounded is a unique survival game that shrinks down to fit on the Switch, but is it a worthy experiment?
I liked the game so far. And it's the most polished early access title I've ever played. The only problem is that there is a lack of content, especially in terms of survival as there are not many threats or variable scenarios. Obviously that is something that will be addressed as they develop the game, being a early access and all. But if you went to it now, expecting Minecraft 1.5 levels of possibilities you are going to be disappointed.
And besides the game being actually soli, one of the best things about it is that it's being made by Obsidian. At this point most people know how solid of a developer they are as far as RPGs are concerned. So it's a nice change of pace to see they tackling a different genre and actually delivering.
Honestly this is the only game that I liked from th rmicrosoft showcase except for probably avowed, even though no real gameplay was shown of avowed.
Oh, man is this a trend we're noticing here with XGS pumping out CGIs and solid textured colred games? Where is the action-adventure gameplay and exclusives?
basically microsoft is lucky they bought obsidian, the only real people who know what they're doing out of all their studios besides the ones who do their forza racing games. maybe ninja theory too but they're getting typecast a little with hellblade
