A really strong video card wont help you here.

The game is very CPU intensive.

Hopefully they they can squeeze more performance out of Unity down the road but just the nature of the game itself having a dynamic environment with the sheer amount of individual things happening will eat up your CPU cores.

A lot of the GPU driven stuff wont even make your card "sweat" probably at all.


With Valheim popularity and whatnot, its possible that Unity Technologies will actually go out of their way to try and help them optimize it more. Valheim success using Unity reflects on them too, at least a little.
