I'm usually not a huge fan of these multiplayer open-world survival craft games, but Valheim manages to scratch a certain itch. PvE is actually a huge focus unlike most other games of this type, and while some may call the grind "excessive", I love it. Maybe I have something wrong with me, but I love that feeling of having a goal, and of working hard to get to it. It makes it all the more sweeter when you actually do manage to make your first bronze weapon, or boat, or whatever.

I still have a lot more to see, but I am thoroughly enjoying the game and looking forward to what comes.
