Es hora de volver al juego después de acabarme toda la historia disponible en el Early Access. Bueno, de hecho sigue en EA.
Vuelta a empezar desde cero (decisión propia), confirmo que este juego con amigos es de lo mejor, es muy entretenido y consigue que hasta simplemente buscar piedras sea divertido, se te pueden ir muy fácil las horas.
Aunque en el menú (y alguna imagen de carga) la primera impresión visual no es la mejor, luego el juego es muy, muy bonito, con una gran atmósfera.
El sistema de "lo que usas es lo que mejoras" me gusta, el sistema de construcción es muy flexible, el reto está bien balanceado, hay siempre cosas para hacer...
Un gran juego, muy recomendable.
Y, para mi sorpresa, hecho en Unity.

450 heures passées sur les îles de Valheim en compagnie de mes meilleurs camarades.
Un jeu a faire en coop.
Style graphique unique et très joli, mais qui manque toujours d'optimisation.
Un gameplay de petit farm très agréable, le build est cool et de plus en plus intéressant grâce au mises a jours.
Merci au devs pour le temps passé !

This game without mods is kind of boring. This game is still clearly being put together to have a full vanilla experience. I suspect that at the end of content rollout, probably won't hit as satisfactorily what you can get out of these mother fucking mods.

The mods in Valheim make Valheim worth talking about, because without them to curate finely-tuned server experiences you really have a nothing sandwich when it comes to fresh survival genre experiences.

I'm running this game in steam on the open beta playtest version of the game that allows this and that mods to make this run fuckin SICK.

Right now I'm playing in a private server with 15 other people with ValheimPlus and like the other 4 top downloaded mods you can find on rmodman2. It is extraordinarily fun to run through a relatively normie experience with so many quality of life features I cannot list them here; with a buncha guys who love base building, farming mats, and making a wolf breeding pit to create dozens of wolf dogs that destroy everything that wanders close to our fully moated castle town called Piss Village.

I'm so into Valheim I'm going to do a hardcore combat run where the map is turned off, leaving the server players have to craft physical waypoints to what location you need to go to. It's gonna be insane.

So yeah, vanilla Valheim? Aight.

Modded Valheim? It's now the best survival game.

Valheim is an amazing open world survival game with some QoL hiccups that can be easily remedied with mods.

In addition to most of your actions having XP and Levels, Valheim has the classic loop of: Gather materials > Upgrade your Gear > Fight Boss > Gather better materials with upgraded gear, rinse and repeat. A very addicting dopamine cycle that feels rewarding.

And for those who want to unwind, the game also provides the player with simple yet effective landscaping tools and a surprisingly complex building system. You can't just place blocks anywhere willy nilly, everything has to have a foundation or support to stay where it is placed. This turns building a large/tall structure into a bit of a puzzle, trying to turn your vision into an actually stable building. There's also farming and animal husbandry that goes hand in hand with landscaping and building to create some visually stunning AND functional bases.

The combat in the game is also fairly good, but has some issues that make it frustrating from time to time. The balance of using stamina for both attacking AND running makes it hard to kite enemies effectively, which makes some fights very exciting. And when you've got a shield, this lets you do one of my favourite moves in video games, parrying! If you time a block right before an enemy attack lands, you parry their attack which stuns them for a short duration. During this stun, your attacks do critical damage as the reward in addition to the enemy being unable to attack during the stun.
The issues that make fighting more annoying are height difference, where if you're fighting on a hill and the enemy is either below or above you, your attacks will very rarely land. There's also surrounding objects, since nearly everything in Valheim takes damage, including buildings, walls, the ground, bushes etc. and doing damage to multiple targets in one attack spreads your damage out, this leads to combat in tight corridors or small buildings a lot slower since your damage is being spread out to random walls or trees.

With Valheim having such a huge open world, it uses portals to aid with long distance back and forth travel. This is incredibly useful to save some time and make the game less of a walking simulator. But for some reason, some of the most important materials that you spend a lot of your time gathering from far away locations are excluded. You cannot bring ores or smelted bars through the portals with you. I can't think of a great reason for this decision other than encouraging multiple bases near some more dangerous areas, but the people that don't wish to do that will simply just build a boat to fill and use that to transport the metals to their home base. And depending on the wind, that trip might take anywhere from 5 to 20 minutes of doing barely anything. Thankfully this is easily addressed with mods that make metals transportable through portals, but I wish the vanilla game had at least a command or world setting where it allows you to choose what can go through a portal.

Overall an awesome game with some very minor issues.
