Reviews say Grounded is far superior; I've played (and beat!) Grounded and it's amazing. This i haven't played, but it looks a lot jankier, from the videos I've seen. Has anyone else got direct experience with both to make a better comparison?
I've played both. Smallland is jankier, but supports more than 4 players. Boss fights in Smallland are easier.
The gliding in Smallland is pretty nice.
How do the quests and writing hold up? Smalland looks a lot more "WoW-like" in the quests to my eye; I was pretty impressed with the voice acting and writing of the quests in Grounded, and I liked how tightly the main storyline quests and progress were tied to character and gear progression. I was also super impressed with the level design in Grounded, lots of verticality and creative use of the "back yard" aesthetic in creating varied and interesting biomes and open-world dungeons to crawl.
I have to admit I'm just now realising I'm a bit of a Grounded stan 😂
