It seems that every time someone doesn't like how this game is going, they default to "this game is slowly getting abandoned" or "it's dead". I remember when World of Warcraft, The Burning Crusade came out, tens of thousands of players bashed the expansion saying the game was dying. Yet, the game received a total of 8 expansions, 7 after TBC. If that's your idea of "dead" or "abandonment", I wonder what a game like Tabula Rasa is then? "Super Dead" "Super abandoned"?

Valheim is being worked on. Check the news and announcements. Current version is v0.206.5, with content being developed for the Mountain biome, and Mislands biome coming out later this year. The game has received 26 updates since February 2021: https://valheim.fandom.com/wiki/Version_History

Does this game require optimisation? Duh, it's early early access. It has been said many times in the past. It's not Rocket Science, let alone grade one science. However, you not getting more than 60FPS in Valheim is a personal problem. Some of my friends are getting 100 to 120 FPS for Valheim.
