I can't believe the devs are still alive

I figured the game was abandoned, to be honest. Their updates have been unreasonably slow and what little they did release was insultingly barebones. With how much money they made during their unexpected COVID success, you'd think your first order of business would be hiring a top notch PM and experienced devs to keep your development on track.

Edit: I want to add that Enshrouded, in my opinion, seems like what I had hoped Valheim would develop into with more time.

I love valheim but there are things that keep me from putting serious time into it that i just cant figure out. Its probably a bunch of little nitpicky things. Mods help for sure with that. Saying that i have about 70 hours in enshrouded and am about 2/3 “complete”. And am loving every minute. Its gets out of its own way and pretty much lets you do what you want. Im an old fart gamer and prefer a slower casual pace in this genre. Enshrouded ticks that for me

It’s a matter of taste. I got bored of Enshrouded after 20 hours (which is decent, and worth its money), but Valheim is easily one of my all time favourites. I find it a lot more rewarding.

I played solo deep into mistlands and now I’m rediscovering it together with a friend.

I love Enshrouded but I do love Valheim more.

I still have hope with valheim. My son just got it so im sure itll be more fun with him. I dont hate it at all.
