No. Not at the current build.
Death skill drain does not impact game play all that much. It is basically a deterrent designed to make one afraid of death.
If you only die every once in a great while, you will regain those skill levels. If you die say 3 times in 20 min while trying to recover your gear, no worries. there is a period of time after you die where you will not lose more skill levels.
I have learned by mistakes that lead to my demise, instead of repeating them.
If there were no consequences for death besides running to get your stuff, the game would be less challenging with out a deterrent from death.
This game was designed to waste your time. If you dislike the "puzzle" of figuring out the game mechanics and the frustration of learning how to effectively survive... this game might not be right for you.
BTW I'm 57 years old, and have over 2200 hours play time in Valheim. I like the game enough to waste copious amounts of my time.
