Don't forget you're actually dead so "food" isn't for sustenance but for a sort of magical buff.

OP's minor mistake aside, I think Valheim has one of (f not THE) the most ingenious food systems of any survival crafty game. It serves double duty as both a resource pressure (A mechanic that keeps the player venturing out into the world to collect resources), and as a parallel character progression system along with the skill system. These survival mechanics often feel like novelties, but Valheim's feel integral to every dimension of the game. From how you build your base to how you engage with combat.

where do people even get "survival" from in this game ?
its not like youll die from starvation, dehydration, hypothermia/hyperthermia, infections, virus/diseases, food poisoning or anything

Your character is already dead, it can't die any further.

i dont know what term i should use when i become deadn't by something in game

Can't find a pot to boil water...sounds like The Forest to me. Look for abandoned campsites, but you're right, the pots are hard to find without looking up the map.

Can't die of starvation or thirst in Valheim though, although you can easily die from getting hit by anything if you haven't eaten.

Might even be Green Hell? :p

My Guess Fallout 4 by OP's Avatar/Logo @ Zep Tepi I misread your post and thought it read
"... although you can easily die by getting hit from anything you havent eaten"

he he
Ive been Watching too much of Last of Us episode 3 or Prepper shows :-)

I think you're in the wrong forums.

Sounds fun, what game is that? I wanna play it. :-)

I was hoping to see thirst, hunger, digestibility/absorption fats/fiber/carbs/protein intake when i saw people talking about survival in this game too but saw none of it, not even laceration dots, infections or anything of the sort

maybe next year ?

Valheim has a set food level, and the food and drink are used to enhance stats.
so think you have the wrong game.

sounds like 7 Days to Die. Wrong forum.
