ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

if you don't have it already I highly recommend, probably one of the best survival crafters out there

I've played through the existing content probably four times as they released environments, I love this game so much and I hope you do too!

I do sort of wonder if they were purposefully waiting to release 1.0 when they could drop on other consoles. I have Valheim on Steam and it feels like the game stagnated in EA for a while.

Maybe stagnated is the wrong term, it just feels like the game overstayed its welcome as an Early Access title. Like it could have and should have released earlier but was intentionally kept in EA for some reason.

Yooooooo I remember back when this game was going viral and we talked about how empty the deep north was, damn I really gotta play this again I loved it

[–] Zahille7@lemmy.world 2 points 2 hours ago

I kinda liked how empty and barren the deep north was at the beginning. It felt truly lifeless, like the fimbulwinter thing from Witcher 3.

[–] LostWanderer@fedia.io 10 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

Yas! I've been watching the progress of Valheim and hoping it would go 1.0 before I invested too much time into it! This year, I'm going to be eating good with a wide selection of games to play.

[–] MissesAutumnRains@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

God, I can't agree more. These last few shows have had suuuuuch a good selection of games.

[–] LostWanderer@fedia.io 4 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

For me, I am talking mostly about the games that I already have bought while they were in early access and waited for them to mature! Fields of Mistria, Palworld, now Valheim too! As for the other new releases that are to be released, those I haven't decided fully on them yet. Clockwork Revolution, Metro 2039, and Magicians: The Devil's Deal also I find to be those with potential. Beyond that, there is not particularly much for me to be excited about, but that is just me. Not every game is going to be my cuppa, and that is also alright.

[–] Zahille7@lemmy.world 1 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

If you tried Going Medieval before it went to 1.0, it had its full release a couple months ago.

They're still adding stuff to it too.

[–] LostWanderer@fedia.io 1 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

I'm still uncertain about that game...It's one that I prefer watching others play rather than playing myself. It's not a bad game persay, just one that doesn't speak to me specifically.

[–] Zahille7@lemmy.world 1 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

That's fair. I've heard it equated to Rimworld which I've never played, but I love the different details. And I love building castles.

[–] LostWanderer@fedia.io 1 points 1 hour ago

I very much love Rimworld and get on with that pretty well...There is something about Going Medieval that doesn't speak to me and I can't tell you why. Confusing, as it does have those Rimworld aesthetics and style, yet there is something different about it.

How does crossplay between systems work?

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 6 points 5 hours ago (3 children)

I wonder if it will come with more control over spawns. The greydwarf spam is so, so, so annoying.

[–] Screen_Shatter@lemmy.world 1 points 17 minutes ago

Just put workbenches down, spawning is prevented wherever they are. You can bury them under floors, make walls arpund your base, put spikes up, make a trench, or all of the above.

[–] barkingspiders@infosec.pub 2 points 38 minutes ago

I love this game so much but after several playthroughs I now turn off the raids, I think they're the worst mechanic in the game

[–] Jarix@lemmy.world 3 points 3 hours ago

Couldn't agree more with this
