Valheim already has elements of magic and potions. So why not add something that does what MC did?

See I think what the devs did wrong was make all these different "crafting stations" and added limitations to them. In MC you can make a "station" make what you need and go off. But in valheim EVERY station needs to be near you to do thing pertaining to said material.
Adding an "enchantment station" would just be ANOTHER thing you need to clutter up an area and move with you.

I think the nearby statioin upgrades thing makes a fun little basebuilding puzzle which I think the game wants to and should try to motivate players to do.

For an Enchanter's Table, we already have it: The Alchemist's Table. it just needs the recipes and it's good to go!

Yeah but I havent even heard of that table until now.. thats a really late game item. All the hours I have in the game are from one world, and i've just gotten to the mountains. In MC the enchantment table can be made fairly quickly (the ore progression isnt gated by bosses/biomes).

Now that im thinking of it, I think my main gripe is that the game is linear. Im so used to survival games being so free and open, that when Ive got on Valheim im just expecting that. But I dont mind it, and its definitely why so many stop at the BF
