This is me!  e: I invaded the black forest and set up in an abandoned tower with multiple stories, not realizing there was a graydwarf nest within arrowshot. I wasn't too bothered at first by all the fighting, but once I managed to thin out their numbers and destroy the nest a troll showed up...and started breaking walls and floors on my second story converted fortress

caleb posted:I had a troll take out the wall I had placed all of my chests against in one of my first worlds right after I had moved into a bigger place and had just finished organizing everything. I absolutely hate organizing storage in crafting games so picking stuff up off of the lawn to do it for a second time was soul crushing. Once you know how to deal with them they are pretty fun to fight and can even help you out. I thought I could hide and he would go away, like I’d done with the greydwarves. I went upstairs and crouched, then suddenly there was a LOT of shaking. He didn’t forget

Wow, the skeletons got rude. I was inside my newly-built house building some inside stuff and thought I heard a few bow shots outside. By the time I got out there and found out who was shooting, a skeleton archer had shot 2 of my tamed boars. I guess it took the nearest valid target since it couldn’t get line of sight to me? Dick move either way

johnny park posted:I'd like to see them add currents to ocean water as just another way to engage with the actual sailing mechanics, which IMO is one of the most fun parts of the game. But other than that yeah, more points of interest and more enemies would be cool I just set sail for the first time, it’s a ton of fun! Surprised they even considered tacking, let alone added it in.

Ravenfood posted:Dumb question but it's my first time playing a patched game with mods on: do I need to re-download and reinstall V+ after the patch? Check for an update, but you don’t necessarily need to re-download the mod. Sometimes they announce it wherever you downloaded it from, sometimes your mod manager (if you’re using one) will let you know. This is my first patch after mods too, it’s nice when they don’t utterly break your entire mod list (looking at you two, Subnautica and 7Daystodie  )

The ocean waves in this game during a storm are obscenely cool, what the gently caress. They’re actually reminding me of being on a cruise ship and seeing 20-30ft monster waves off the sides. Also, my longship got caught in a trough between 2 wave crests, and I’m pretty sure it took damage as the waves tried to fold it in half. I’m not entirely sure, because trying to sail through a storm is a fool’s errand and I’m the perfect fool for it

Adding to that: I use the iron one to fight Loxes and come out ahead. Dodge->2 stabs, rinse/repeat until you’re collecting a hide. It also does well against trolls, at least for me so far.

Watching one of them aggro a greydwarf and get pulled further into a Meadows biome on a rampage that even Odin himself would call “a bit much” is hilarious, and also a good way to collect wood if you don’t want to cut it yourself

I’m on a plains/meadows/Black Forest border. Hogs and deer nearby, lox if I’m feeling froggy, copper/tin if I need it, and barley won’t grow outside of the plains. Just had an “you’re being hunted” event where the wolves killed me, broke down the door to my base, and slaughtered all my hogs/piggies

Moonshine Rhyme posted:Thanks for the responses! I think based on the way we play and what I'm hearing, the ideal would be an intersection of some of the biomes. Personally I really want to be able to build a safe harbor for the aesthetic. Something like a walled village with a harbor at the center. A couple of the guys in the group are very much builders in the way they play these games and I didn't want them to feel like they wasted their time if we should have built our main hub in a later biome. The biome intersections are also hilarious places to watch creatures from each biome aggro the hell out of each other. Watching a lox rampage through greylings and greydwarves is good clean fun

Yea I loved the frost caves, they’re just a pain to look for. I stumbled into my first one and used a map seed viewer to find more after I ran through some mountains looking for silver most everywhere and didn’t find any of them.

WoodrowSkillson posted:dope. There’s a (currently) missed opportunity lurking in here somewhere for a portal upgrade that lets you teleport ore/ingots, but only after you actually walk it back once. The same way you have to walk/sail/somehow get to a place to set down your initial portal, but then travel is free back and forth. You’d still have the initial trip there/back, but afterwards it’d be an easy trip. I disliked having to go back for copper/tin when I was going through the plains, but that would make it less of a pain in the rear end.

Oxyclean posted:On the other hand, modding communities have gotten comically toxic and petty even without money involved with stuff like people stealing work or purposefully breaking compatibility with other mods over design opinion differences that money becoming involved won't create a bigger mess or just lead to like 1000 paid mods of big tiddy anime lady model rips. God, you’re reminding of the kerbal space program modder that literally put spyware in one of his mods that you had to dig around in the menus to go opt out of, and even among that pool of crazy dude managed to get driven out. It wasn’t even his own mod, he had just taken over the main fork when the original dev abandoned it for a while iirc.

We dug a trash pit in a game with friends, and threw all sorts of stuff down in it. A friend of mine fell in when some greydwarfs attacked us in the night, and one of the party got the idea to spartan-kick a greydwarf into the trash-pit with my poor friend who’d fallen in. My friend was freshly respawned and didn’t even have a weapon, so he got to sit down there and try to punch out a greydwarf that couldn’t run away, and the slope was too steep for him to climb. The cursing stopped suddenly with “welp, I’m loving dead again, thanks assholes”. We didn’t kill the greydwarf, but sooner or later it had to have despawned and our trash guardian was gone

I love how apocalyptic the boss fights sound. “Cracked open a mountain and shattered some castle ruins, but the beast is down!” The boss music in this game is absolutely perfect. Eikthyr’s and Yagluth’s themes in particular would make some dangerously good workout music.

The Karve is slightly slower at full sail than the longship (7 m/sec vs 9.4 m/sec, according to the Valheim wiki). Like you noticed, it does turn a bit better.

Outright beating Bonemass to death is possibly one of my most satisfying moments in any game. Just pure “gently caress you, here’s a goddamned mace to the face that’s going to repeat until you stop breathing” energy.
