just some things I hope to see in the future

-ability to adjust diameter of the hoe effect for stone path and leveling
-in game method to eliminate raids (reward? optional?)
-dedicated inventory slots for armor
-way, WAY more trade. gold is virtually useless
-real incentives (beyond resources) for exploring far from home
-Flat roof options
-special portal type that can portal metals. I always felt that the "Yagluth thing" would be good for this. Like, you'd only be able to make one or two pair.

my only real gripe is that in most games of this type, the further on you get, the easier and more streamlined certain processes become (Smelting, mining, farming etc). this is unfortunately not the case in Valheim. i'm not trying to speed through the game, I just don't wanna spend hours grinding stone just to build a house.
