Best User Review Ever - Valheim

[CountDeMoney]

I would let you guys on my server, if you promise not to trash my shit.  I've built quite the castle.  Also built a Gibraltar-style island, with a yuge bonfire signal light.

[Grey Fox]

I'm still tempted by the game. That would push me over the edge.

You have no time to play this game.

[Berkut]

Does anyone have a PC that could host? Mine seems to be crashing rather regularly....

[The Brain]

I think renting a 24/7 server is the best way.

Mean

But its got a big learning curve?
I took it as minecraft with vikings and minecraft is quite a drop in and out casual game.

[The Brain]

It's drop in and out friendly I would say. Obviously you might not keep up with the cool kids, but there's always stuff to do.

[Berkut]

That was what I was wondering about a shared server. How does it not just become whoever plays the most leaves everyone behind?

Yeah, it looks like about $14/month for ten slots. That's pretty cheap. And takes care of a lot of hassle.

Got a server for 30 days, see how it goes:

My experience is that it isn't a huge problem. Obviously things depend a bit on the personality and maturity of the players involved, but if someone is running off in one direction doing a lot of stuff it doesn't necessarily have a huge impact on other people's game. And if the guy with the most playing time is someone like me then he uses a lot of it to gather resources and stocking up supplies so the other guys get a flying start on their building projects etc when they do play.

Obviously you Berkut are God Emperor on your server, but maybe there should be some general rules of behavior? You could for instance say that killing a new boss for the first time will always be a group/server expedition done when the group/server thinks it's time. No rushing off and soloing new bosses. Once a boss has been killed the first time then it's free to kill for everyone whenever they want (the people who couldn't/didn't join in the first group kill for instance).

One more thing to consider: should everyone start with a new character on the server, or can those who have played before bring their geared up mofos? New characters would make sense I think.

I assume we're using the Languish Discord for voice?

[The Brain]

I popped in briefly on the server. New character, called Hjärna.

[Berkut]

I was not ever aware you could bring in an existing character!

Yes, definitely new characters for the new server.

And I like the basic plan of coordinating and agreeing on milestone activities....

I played a couple hours last night, got an initial house built. Even found some boars to tame!

[Darth Wagtaros]

Now I just need some time to play.  And buy the game.  

[Berkut]

DO we have a Languish discord server already?

Yes.
