THIS! Guide the procedural generation algorithm to ensure there SOMETHING there, especially in this biome.

Well, there is, sealbreakers and royal jelly for example. Just because it isn't black cores doesn't mean it's not useful or valuable.

Or maybe they always spawn there but you (or someone else) missed them. I've always found at least one.

Yeah, all of these things are a bummer. The verticallity would be refreshing if enemies also had to pay respect to stamina or elevation.

Uh, most enemies cannot climb at all. Gjall are slow af and easy to avoid because you hear them a mile away. Seekers can fly, yes, but they cannot do that constantly. All the navigation conundrums melt away with proper food and feather fall.

It's a new, different biome for which you need to adapt. Valheim is a brutal exploration and survival game.

To you, yes. Sounds like ego talking. Not everyone plays this game for brutal exploration and survival. I like it because of its balance. But everyone has their different motivations. It's not about "hey I know all the answers you have to play like this"
