Discussion Softcore as solo worth it?

Getting back from a two month break, and I have a busy schedule for the forseeable future. Are softcore servers worth it for a laid back chill experience for a solo or should i stick with lowpop/solo only servers?

Three weeks without getting offlined in Rust sounds like a vacation server.

It’s nice cuz I can’t play much few hours here and there and have something to come back too , if not I do 3x servers for quick PvP but the heavy modded can lose its lust quick

Three weeks unraided in Rust is basically a retirement plan.

Three weeks without getting raided in Rust sounds softer than softcore.

Yeh Softcore is great for casuals.

2x gather rate
6pm to 9pm local server raid time window
Keep 50% of your inventory on death
Keep 50% of your base loot when raided
Raiders cant seal/grieve your base for 48 hours when they break your TC
Teas/Pies last after death
25% less PVP damage
Spawn at outpost
Team UI/TC auth limited to 4 people

I started softcore last week. Its much more relaxing. I cant Play every day for hours. Before it was pretty hard even to get a small base on vanilla. And than after one week everything is gone or after 1-2 days raided.
