An ode to Valheim

Ode to Valheim…

Dead, by combat, death by the sword
I am on my way, to Odin my lord.
I have been held,
my fate withheld.

I am carried by wings,
No angelic song sings.
Over the top of the trees, I am dropped in a field
I am in a circle of stones, I refuse to yield.

A raven of Odin calls,
This is not Valhalla halls.
Valheim this land is called,
enemies of Odim must be falled.

My quest is thus that I must,
I need to down the enemies I trust.
Left with nought but shirt and fire,
I must win and face the enemy ire.

I earn my arms and mail,
I travel by road and sail.
I face my foe with mail and hoe,
I win the day, and lo.

I see the tree of all,
I see this while resting in my hall.
Mayhap I will finish the quest,
In Valhalla I plan to rest.

Since nothing is ever perfect, yes.

However, it's not bad at all and is pretty much 100% better than my never-started ode to Valheim. (although I was thinking more of an randy limerick :steamhappy:)

Yeah. Just like the game. Those updates are becoming a meme. Maybe the game is a meme. Balancing and reworking animations. Priorities I guess.

What a ray of sunshine and positivity! What is your Swamp address?

Not necessarily. Poetry is an acquired taste and might not appeal to most here.

Be not dismayed and keep writing :)

Poetry is about more than just making sure things rhyme. That's about all I have to add here.

Bruh, look around. All games have become a meme; the industry is sick. Be thankful that we have something as good as Valheim to get us through these troubled times. Would you rather be playing Cyberpunk? Or Fallout? Or Battlefield? Iron Gate have done very well by us compared to a lot of other developers lately.

I have plenty of games to play, thank you for your concern. And no this game is not on the list I want to play for quite some time. It's bare bones, for a long time now. And it looks like it's not going to change much either.
