sort of like treating world two as a private dimension just for storage. Nice idea and practicle for those players who don't use mods. I've seen something conceptually similar in another game Iused to play.

Only thing the player has to do is allow the use of the second world in their head cannon for Valheim. Something like Odin gave them a sanctuary world they can use as a base while they deal with the trouble makers on the 10th World. So explore the 1st world, but store/build all your stuff in the 2nd.

You are just rationalizing a way to cheat/exploit the game mechanics.

I've always said that if an unmodified game allows you to do something then it's not cheating. Simply because the game allows it then the devs didn't think it adversly effected the game.

If I force the game to do something it didn't allow then that would be cheating right? But sometimes that is OK. I have three mods that do things the game's programming doesn't allow, so from your position I am ceating right?

Now what if I tell you the first mod adds a quickconnect menu to the main screen so I can connect to saved servers with one click, even handles the password.

The second mod enlarges the area revealed in world map to about the area of the minimap so what gets reveled is a little closer to what I see on my screen.

And the last mod lets me pause the game with the esc key when I'm in single player.

All of those mods make the game do something it wan't originally programmed to do but add features the devs will propably add at some point because players want them.

So, am I still cheating?

Just for the record I wouldn't use the 2 world trick, i think it is more fun to load up a longship with everything needed to build the upgraded crafting stations then smelt and craft at a forward base.. But I have a lot of free time to explore like that. Other players don't so the2 world trick would solve their issue using mechanics currently allowed by the game. Its just a mater of will they allow themselves to use the trick.

And don't knock rationalizations, i don't know anyone who can get through he day without two or three juicy rationalizations. They're more important than sex.

WHats that? nothings more important than sex?

Ever gone a week without a rationalzation?
