Not sure what the hell Kenshi is about but this game is awesome, maybe check out a few Valheim gameplay videos for it before you think about a purchace. I recommend this though. Maybe ask someone on y..

Valheim doesn't need to load the map every five seconds, so it's more enjoyable than Kenshi on this aspect XD

I've played both games and like them equally. Kenshi has a lot more stuff to build, it's quite complex, it has NPCs to add to your warband and a tactical feel to it when trying to build reputation but..

No one knows when it will go gold. My best guess would be in 2 years from now. I doubt it would go much beyond that. Spring 2025 - book it!

the razor is tiered as an iron age weapon, so yes it is better than bronze... to make the best use of daggers in general one should probably utilize their high backstab multiplier though

I think the Razor is. You have to factor in everything. Speed, weight, stagger damage, backstab multiplier etc.
