Does anyone else think its wierd there no bears in the game?
(Please note this is not a suggestion, just an observation.) So I've been playing for a while, just before the home update awhile back. Typically I play with friends as one does and maybe that was what made it take so long to register, but as me and a friend noticed in the game a week ago, theres no bears? It's just odd that in a game about the Nordic worlds, that bears, a creature of huge importance in the culture, would be looked over and not applied.
Of course, theres always the fun idea that it was on purpose. we see messages on rune stones every so often about how the gods have forsaken the land, and it was a common belief that Odin and Thor would visit the land as bears, maybe there are no bears because the gods haven't visited recently. But hey, what do you guys think of the thought of missing bears?

Actually they go in the belly of what ever hunted them. As far as squirrel souls go I've never been a squirrel so I'm not an authority on the subject.The revered bears go to heaven when they die (Valhalla). You were a naughty Viking and went to Valheim when you died. That's why there are no bears in Valheim.
Oooohhh. "Father? Where do squirrels go when they die?" "Nowhere, they have no souls."

This! If I was a betting man, I'd put my money on bears inhabiting the Far North, once they get around to it.
But as the OP says: Yeah weird there not in the game from Meadows onwards. With extra special Polar Necro Killa Bears in the North...

Wouldn't mind some angry, oversized polar bear to tame.

I wouldn't mind polar bears in the Deep North, but that's a pipe dream that's a long ways off.

Several times some sounds made me think there´s a bear around the corner, yes. I´m missing these intelligent creatures but also understand they don´t want to show up and live so close to a human who destroys all nature, so they hide pretty well.

If you really think about it, in general the game's fauna is very lacking. How many animals do we have (not including monsters here): Deer, Boar, Wolf... some fish and couple of breeds of birds. That's all...
we can add lox here with some stretch, because it kinda acts like a huge animal alright, but I refuse to add deathquittos or seekers or gjalls as animals. They're more of a monsters...
So what do we have here, 3 maximum 4 land animals in all the bioms together.
UPDATE: Ok, let's add those weird hares here too. So, 5

There is a mod that you can use to add bears to the game. But unfortunately mods tend to break when they do patches and updates (like now), I personally find the game boring without the mods.

I wouldn't call it wierd, I mean seems like a hard npc to implement. I think bears shouldn't be easy enemies but they also should be the hardest and where would they even fit in the game?
Maybe instead of deer in the blackforest?
Maybe they could be an extra npc in the mountains? Maybe as the introductory neutral character instead of dverger being the first neutral npcs you come across.
Maybe the could populate the mountain crags in mistlands?
Maybe they'll be in far north? Along with seals, penguins and a slew of magical beings needing their heads bashed in.
