People wouldn't quit a bugged ridden game if they really liked it in the first place. It's not everyone's cup of tea.

I've used a fair share of mods and they also bug out even more. Hasn't stopped me from enjoying the game play.

Or maybe for you, what do you think the chances are of losing everything the next time? In my view it's not going to happen, but there's no guarantee I'm willing to give you.:steamhappy:

Did it do that thing where you log in and get rolled back to a previous save state or have you just lost the location of the grave?

Was just running around exploring the biomes, had an upgraded bow and all leather equipped, as I was climbing some mountains, I fell into a pit sorrounded by high stone and couldn't get out of there. My options: Drown myself and respawn. Well, lost all my items and had to kill the boars again to get a bow, luckily it was at the start and not now that I'm full geared with bronze items, but still a pain, my only way to get a bow was to kill boars melee again until I got the scraps for it, lost about 2 hours of gameplay
So you went into the mountains without a pickaxe?

There aren't mountains in the Meadows, so not sure what you are talking about.

Wait, is the problem just that your grave is surrounded by standing stones and you can't reach it without mining equipment?

So just a really unfortunate first death location - you could have used the building and terraforming tools to deal with that or maybe just jumped in and out with more familiarity with the movement, but didn't have time to learn that before it happened.

Did it take two hours to get back to the same stage second time around?

The pit had a big height, I was really unlucky, I fall downhill and right into this kind of pond between stone, I had a upgraded crude bow and leather (yeah its not much but it's till an annoyance) and to get a bow again I had to fight the boars melee again. It was impossible to get through it by jumping since it was too high, as I said, very unlucky situation and this didn't happened in my first playthrough, I could get back and get the corpse after getting a pickaxe but it wouldn't be worth the hassle since it was beginning gear

One way would to cheat the things back with the spawn command.

Another would be to find the gravestone, you should be able to see a mark on the map where you died.
If you cant see the mark/gravestone (depending on why and where you died) remaking or spawing is all you can do.

I wouldn't say it is cheating to use the dev commands when recovering your equipment from a bug. The game is EA, there is a reason we have access to the dev commands, this is a good example.

here it is:
start Valheim.exe -console
Open F5 and then type devcommands. And help for possible commands.
For ingame days there is a command to step back at that say, maybe you will recover.

Use cheats to spawn it all back in. That's about all you can do
