r/valheim

I found an old screens with bridge and wanted to share it.

I wanted to join a bridges flashmob, why not)

I'm playing after being away since launch, where I only (barely) made it to the swamp then.

So here I am in round two, taking my time. Once I got corewood, I of course had dreams of home expansion. More space, easier roofs... it will be spectacular!

I laid out the floor I wanted for one wing and after three different attempts at a roof, I got.... a barn. The beam you see coming out of the side will be for a perpendicular roof/wing. But wing one is definitely a barn.

But as I accepted my barnlife reality, I imagined that this was a very common "stage two/three" build attempt. I'm probably not the only one that set out to be fancy and ended up with something very similar to this hay shack.

Who else built an accidental barn?

• spherical

Obviously within the limits of the game, creating a perfect dome is impossible. There is no secret trick to this really, its just trial and error of free placing beams to create the illusion of a spherical dome.

The building is a work in progress obviously

Made this mod today and I put my face into my character

What's funny is there's an equally small patch of plains to the west where 3 lox spawned. I knew the mountain would be too small for silver but I took my wishbone just in case :^)

I did park it there

9 beds, plenty of storage, but compact enough you aren't running around too much. Plus an attic to discover full of coins and treasure. If you can't tell, I like symmetry haha.

I'm new so seeing one of these is still a little scary. Someday I will drag one of them to land and harvest the goodies.

I built another one longhouse, i love to build it)

My girlfriend is not a survival gamer by any means. She says that large sandbox games give you too much freedom and it can get overwhelming but I managed to convince her to try Valheim and she's been hooked ever since. She enjoys the play at your own pace nature of the game and how there are not soo many things to do that it gets overwhelming. I also think the armors we have on in this screenshot capture our personalities really well.

Just bought and played this game 3-4 days ago with my fiance because we were finding a good, high-quality, fun game to play together that will last for months and years to come.

And I stumbled Valheim. Love the game to bits (Don’t Starve Together being my favourite Survival genre). And although it is not as hard (99.99999% thanks to my fiance, cause she was the one with the creativity and built that awesome freakin stronghold behind our characters) compared to DST, it is a breath of super fresh air.

The game is sometimes too creepy and horrifying for us though. I thought we were supposed to be fallen gigachad warriors that died back on Earth, and was transported to Valheim (Basically purgatory) to kill off enemies that DONT EVEN scream evil (Eikthyr so far), just to please off Odin’s huge ego from my own personal discerning. And yet, I feel so weak, vulnerable, fragile in Valheim. Odin did not even bless the warriors of Valheim with holy weaponries or anything useful. He just seem to just chuck us in there for us to suffer, and build everything ourselves. We did not even end up in Vahalla for some reason.

We both are still learning, getting better and wiser in Valheim. I found out that certain types of enemies are weak to specific types of weapons, which was surprising to us cause usually in survival games, you just choose the “strongest, hardest to make weapon during that time“, and just go unga bunga. But the club still holds value cause that thing can like 2-3 shot a Skeleton soldier, while a Spear can’t do anything significant to them. The realistic-ish physics are also very interesting, since I sadly found out that I can’t just make a Sky-Fortress like in Minecraft lolz

And why there’s a creepy song that plays whenever I went into those abandoned buildings or weird rock formations? The raids traumatised me and her so much that we never stay up during nighttime anymore and immediately goto sleep cause that night theme melody is honestly creepy ash 😭😭😭
