Rust vs The Forest
Rust
Rust is hardcore survival game where the only aim for every player in the game is to survive. Being a survival game, your character will have needs that you'll need to fulfill or risk getting ill or worse... dying from it. There are tons of recipes for you to craft a wide variety of items from as long as you've got the resources you need, and you can also hunt and built a shelter.As fun as this game may sound, the community in this game can be a bit toxic. Most players have a kill-on-sight policy (even if you're naked and literally have nothing with you) and this means playing alone can be very frustrating. If you're planning to play this game, you might want to get a larger group of friends - maybe somewhere around 5 or more players - or you'll quickly realize you want your money back now.
The Forest
The Forest is a survival horror game where you play as the lone survivor of a plane crash only to find yourself in a mysterious jungle infested with man-eating mutants. To survive, you'll need to build a shelter, explore the forest to seek out vital resources and defend yourself from any mutants you come across. There is a pretty in-depth crafting system to help you survive in the wilderness that The Forest brings. You can even play the game through a stealthier approach, opting to avoid any enemies rather than engaging them head-on.You can even play cooperatively with up to 7 of your friends or head over to the multiplayer server and try surviving against other possibly hostile survivors as well. So, do you think you can make a living for yourself in The Forest and possibly find a way to escape from it? Play The Forest now and find out!
