Need some recommendations for similar games - I am almost finished with the campaign

I have really enjoyed this game and am sorry its getting close to the end. I have not used spoilers and don't know what's coming up but I feel like its the end. I am halfway through Barinzinbar. I am wondering 2 things I need help with;

  1. Is playing sandbox worth playing after completing the campaign
  2. What other games in this genre that are very good to play.

My House: Look At It.

I made a house and now I am showing it to you.

I only have the base game, so I'm a bit limited in terms of object choice, but I did the best I could with what I have.

It's in the Elven Workshops area of the Sandbox. Directly adjacent is the Narvi forge, visible from the front door. There's an empty map tile (square? segment?) next to it where hriwaras or bears sometimes spawn. I blocked off the other doors to my tile so my base doesn't get damaged by the goblin men who keep wandering around complaining about smelly elves and how much they hate Moria. I still keep hearing them though.

I made it without a ceiling because I really like the light in that area, and hey, it's not like my house will get rained in. I don't like making multiple rooms, multiple floors or complex layouts in my video game houses - I want to be able to quickly and easily access all of my stuff. The houses I've always made in Elder Scrolls editors, Minecraft etc. are all similar.

Public servers for Xbox

I’m planning on a rather large build to make in my free time after work everyday and would like to know if there are any servers open like durins warehouse was before it closed. I’m trying to find the speed boots and there was an invincibility armor that I once got from there but has since vanished from my inventory as well as needing recourses to build with. If any of our dwarven brethren knows of any servers that could assist me I’d be most appreciative.

Khazåd ingots

I. Can't. Find. Any. I was told to look for a ladder, I haven't found one. I am starting to lose it a bit with frustration. Here is my map, what am I missing?

My wife's expedition library.

My wife made this room for her expedition table. She made it while I was at work and surprised me with it when I got home. I think it looks amazing and I'm honestly slightly jealous she thought it up because I adore bookcase lined library type rooms. What do you guys think?

Filthy orcs and goblins .. It takes ages to get rid of their rubbish! Also .. Help please with Metal Fragments ..

Trying to prepare the area for a main base.

Question: Anyone knows a good reliable source of Metal Fragments?

I can't believe I'm saying this as I had more then half a chest full of it in the early couple hours of playing, but as I progress further it became more and more scarce ..

On top of that I have this habit of getting rid of trash/clutter in ruined homes and such and ever since, these random resources (wood/cloth/metal fragments) stopped respawning.

At the start of the game where you spawn upon world creation there's still some respawning, but it's only a few.

Till Durin wakes from sleep

Hello fellow dwarfs, my sister and I are restoring the halls of Moria, we have a lot of work done, but I think I will start sharing some of our monuments to you brothers.

Starting with my take on Durin's throne

How far away I'm from getting black diamonds for mapstones?

I just cleared the eleven quarters, started to explore the mines where I fell down to the bottom 😅 and found another camp like site with the basics like heart, forge, furnace (and some runestone/runetable, but have no elven wood on me rn to repair it)

Plus wandered a bit off since the pic .. Found some steam vents and spiders, idk if it's relevant or not to black diamonds but haven't found any yet.

Thing is I want to build an actual nice base instead of this .. Whatever I have now here and there, but want the mapstones as I have a TON of resources to move around. (Mainly at the very first camp site.)

I have been blessed by frying pans

Around my oldest delving, frying pans keep appearing.

I did not make these frying pans.

I don't know why they're there.

I have accumulated 6 frying pans.

I find this incredibly amusing.

I've decided I've been blessed by the frying pan gods.

I will make a shrine in their honor.

Any way to repair these planter boxes?

Sorry, I'm new.

I just idk what to do with it as I cannot repair it with a hammer so it seems useless if all it takes is one tap to be destroyed .. Even as I don't really hit it.

(Tried reloading multiple times and getting rid of the pots around it. So even now I just went for a reload so it's not lost, but ..)

Ironwood

Edit: Issue solved, leaving up for anybody else who had this issue

Hi, I've been playing this game for a little while and I just can't find ironwood. I forced my way through and killed the drake, so I've already fixed the eastern stairs. The upgrades are assuming I have it, and I don't.

Mithril mine shaft

I came across this by accident. Where my character is i found a mithril mine shaft. Full of mithril deposits and a creature called the nameless. It almost killed me with a single hit. I ended up leaving with 4 stacks of 30 mithril ore. If you are looking for where to get more its where my cursor is on the far left side

Whats over yonder?

"Beat" the game some time ago, am wondering. Since they (Free Range Games) are essentially done with this game, is that small tent "town" over there supposed to be extra content that was abandoned or what? I haven't really delved into expeditions yet or really done much after the end so wondering what that could be // could've been.

Server issues?

I have a server through gportal and have been playing for about a week now. I am suddenly getting an error that says I cannot join because I do not have the required expansion. Now, I did a little digging and found it is related to the Durin pack, but I didn't own it before and it was working fine. However, I did go into the server ini like and delete the optional DLC code, but it still isn't working.

The Shiny Rocks

Great Spiders? Not all that great. You know what is great, though? Those shiny rocks down in the Darkest Deeps areas in the campaign, the ones you can mine to get gems or sunstone. They're so pretty! I love the way they glitter in the dark. Wish there was some way to drag them back up to my base, they'd make great decorations. They're like huge impure fire opals.

Those are my favourite ones, but I also like the copper rocks and the mithril rocks. Which shiny rocks are your favourites?

I've gone through the whole Lower Deeps and can't find any way to the pilgrim library. Have I missed something?
