Can we expect an update?
I'm pretty concerned. Outside of some unimportant bug fixes, Valheim has gotten almost no updates. At this point I'm beginning to feel like they went on a yacht cruise after their success and aren't coming back. It's been a long time for an early access game to not get content and the bug fix list isn't even complete yet.
Smaller dev teams are also capable of churning out content at a faster pace than big teams, so I just can't see the hold up other than they just aren't working on it.

This is the nature of Early access titles friend.
As far as Early Access titles this early on are concerned the devs have been stars making sure the base game is ready for the new content. You should be happy.
In future do not purchase an Early Access title unless you are prepared for it to be abandoned and/or have another game you're already playing so you're not obsessively checking in for details about updates and making posts like this.
It can be months between updates and with updates can come world wipes as most Early Access titles are working on skeleton crews so it takes time.
"prepared for it to be abandoned"
Truth; this guy gets it

They have been doing bug fixes about every 2 weeks or so, that's pretty fast. Especially for an EA game. Most early access games get little to no bug fixes or content. Regardless if you feel the bug fixes are important or not, they have been steadily working on the game.

Seriously... how the f do you figure that? More people working on content means you can get more done.. That's like saying you would get more cosmetics etc in games if they just fired most of their staff.
Have you ever actually worked on a game? Have you made game assets? I'm not talking about just random ♥♥♥♥ nobody will ever see. I'm talking about assets for games that at least make it to a alpha / beta phase, or coding for one?
I have, I can tell you it is not easy with a small team, especially when that team does not have a local office to work from etc.

This absolutely has to be bait and not serious, because no one is stupid enough to think a small team is more capable of faster paced development compared to a big team. That's just really ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ dumb, like failing basic math levels of dumb.
The only way for a small team to outpace a big team is if the small team works that much harder than the big team, and from what I remember it isn't good to overwork developers to the point of hospitalization. I don't know, maybe that's just me being way too empathetic and not wanting people to kill themselves over someone like OP, I'm kind of a softie like that.

11 updates since February is almost no updates to you? And unimportant bug fixes? They squashed pretty much all major bugs since launch including some game breaking bugs. Outside of some unimportant bug fixes, Valheim has gotten almost no updates.

from what i can see, it's just 2 people working on it. i didn't see any list of employees for iron gate AB. that said, if the product is good, the wait is always worth it.
