A Quick Opinion...
I've seen a lot about how people hate the game, and a lot about how people like the game. I'm one of those who love it. The point of this little speech is to point out a few facts about it and why we should not yet complain about what has not been fixed. My first point; It's early access. They have yet to finish it completely, which is what the term early access means. and -respectfully, all this bellyaching has no point.
If you have a request for a change of how the game is played or used, i think one should politely do so, without the attitude.
My second point, the devs have lives outside game-making, as we all do. which is why they haven't been putting out much content: they have family gatherings, jobs, and friends that might want to hang out with them. they haven't simply run away with our well-spent money, and as they've shown, there are indeed plans for much more stuff. Just because they aren't putting it out fast enough for the 'Bellyachers" doesn't mean it's a scam. The game itself already is a masterpiece to rival Terraria, Raft or Minecraft.
And besides. Maybe they'll suprise us with something.
My third point, if you don't like the unforgivingness of the game, maybe it's just not the right game for you. It's supposed to be that way. The whole Viking/Norse Culture was indeed very hard to live in. I hope this has shed some light for some, and for others, I am not disrespecting your opinion, I'm simply pointing out that there's other things behind this. and besides, maybe you can learn coding and put all you want into your own, edited Valheim.
Cheers! -BloodPie

No I'm good. I can give you the emails and names of studios who really need to be reminded on this policy. Because I've heard enough and seen enough. Well if you don't think EA means anything. Maybe it does need explained to you...
I believe that Valheim developers will continue working on. And that they won't hire a team of koala bears in the near future. I mean no disrespect!
I even bought 5 copies of Valheim for my friends.

Sanki I know how you feel, I have a number of EA titles that went greedy, but for now IG are still on the level, so for now I am willing to trust them.
I hope IG realises that they should use the current games trust to build more trust, for the next project.

I'm always watching! PS: Threads like this one will escalate anyway. Opinions differ fundamentally these days, and both sides are nearly at the same level of ignorance (most of the times). [...] Plus, I think Munin would appreciate I don't escalate stuff.
Being able to weigh and consider all circumstances to form a proper and rather objective opinion is a rare skill nowadays, and definitely only very rarely seen on the forums internet.

Would you allow me to try to keep this thread respectful?

While I appreciate you wanting to help, please leave this task to the moderators. In general, (slightly, in a non-offensive manner) reminding someone to remain respectful is ok, everything else is backseat moderation. Would you allow me to try to keep this thread respectful?

I love Valheim too some may hate because of twitch streamers who enjoyed the game back when it was just released, now when people ask them to comeback and play it again they just don't want to.
For eg. CohhCarnage quoting "yea Valheim, here is a game, and developers are gone" which isn't true, but you can probably imagine what storm it caused in the chat...
And please can we finally move on from "It's early access" it's just a label that means nothing, there are many examples where after full release some developers are doing whatever they like to do.
I spent a decade in bug reporting for game I loved so so much but that ended nowhere.
So now I'm just gonna enjoy whatever it has to offer and patiently wait. Peace.
And to people who don't like being punished for their lack of experience,
go try Escape From Tarkov

I wrote a short point form essay, but decided instead of causing emotional damage to the people who believe Valheim to be abandoned, I'll just say I agree with the OP. Plus, I think Munin would appreciate I don't escalate stuff. ^_^

To say Early Access means nothing is, well, nevermind I will be nice today. I love Valheim too :g_heart: some may hate because of twitch streamers who enjoyed the game back when it was just released, now when people ask them to comeback and play it again they just don't want to.

Unless a game has no further plan, or unless the devs say so, a game is I love Valheim too :g_heart:
And please can we finally move on from "It's early access" it's just a label that means nothing,
still in early access. Valheim even has many future updates and until the devs say so, or until all said updates are accomplished, it is still indeed in early access.

speaking of which, d'you think Munin has a thought on this? I wrote a short point form essay, but decided instead of causing emotional damage to the people who believe Valheim to be abandoned, I'll just say I agree with the OP. Plus, I think Munin would appreciate I don't escalate stuff. ^_^
