It's a conscious design decision and actually almost all people with a dedicated GPU can run this game regardless on how much VRAM they have. Of course it will run better if you have at least something that is not older than, say five to six years.
If you have at least four GBs of VRAM you can even use the Willybach textures. I've tried it and it worked fine.
Edit: Any MY opinion is that default Valheim looks gorgeous. And now? It's your opinion vs. mine. Nobody's right. It's a matter of taste.
My opinion is that default Valheim looks great in many apsects (lighting, etc) but the minecraft texture just kill it for me. The foliage looking square and blocky, and the lack of textures on trees, rocks, etc. just looks bad to me in vr. I should have mentioned that I play in vr because the graphics matter so much more than on flatscreen if that makes sense. I wish everybody could see this game with willybach's hd textures (high settings) in vr; It is so beautiful and immersive that it blows my mind.
