To those complaining about slow development, something to take note
I know things take a while, and people are complaining about the devs this and the devs that. And how the road map was taken down and this is a bad sign, but have any of you looked at that old road map, and see what is on it has been put into the game already?
Hearth and Home (done)
Cult of the wolf (the ice caves, cultists, Fenrir armor and claws anyone?)
Tar pits (in the plains)
They haven't done anything with the ships yet, but they are working on the Mistlands Biome which is the last thing on that initial road map. So about half of that Road Map (ish) has been done, with the Mistlands being a major thing they are adding. We all wish it were faster, but we'd all prefer quality over quantity. I'm sure those complaining about speed, would complain even more and harder if they did a half-baked the Mistlands update.

Uh, do you not see the 2021 at the top? We got 50% in spite of them selling 10 mill copies. It's not like they don't have the resources to expedite development. And in spite of failing their milestones they continued to take like 2 months off .. soooo
Yeah, anyway.
Yeah, anyway.

Okay. First off, Hearth & Home literally ruined the food system. Take a look at the old food stats and you will see how absolutely garbage they are in comparison. Not because they can't be as high as they used to be, but because the balance of Health and Stamina was nerfed into oblivion. If you want to mine, you're either spending an extra 30 minutes to do it, but you won't get one shotted, or you do it faster and get one shotted. Before hand you could easily do both, but now you need to wait till end game to get to that point, and even then it's still not as good.
Next, the Cult of the wolf stuff isn't even fully implemented yet, third though, the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ Tar Pits, they are absolutely garage. Who though giving a fast moving enemy, a RANGED attack, that it will NON STOP SPAM AT YOU, that not only poisons you, but SLOWS you? IMHO, I have no idea how something like that made its way past the concept phase.
Like, I don't care that it's taking this long to do stuff. I just wish they'd give us a little actual content that doesn't feel assed, like giving us a half baked reskin and acting like that's effort. If they actually gave us content that's worth playing, then sure, but what replay value does some flags and a hot tub have?

Road maps are not promises. There were no milestones. The road map did not say "Coming in 2021" It just said 2021.
They dated the roadmap, because they planned to revise it in the future and having a date of roadmap "publishing" would help differentiate between new maps.
But they had to scrap that entire method of communicating what is in the future for Valheim because of people like you who do not understand anything about development of any kind.
They also communicated with the community that bundling into huge updates, like the roadmap was suggesting, was new for them AND that they didn't like that way of updating when they scrapped the roadmap.
