Can anyone recommend mods to cut down on tedium and make the game easier for very casual players? My family and I are wrapping up Grounded and looking at Valheim next. Our skills levels range from heavy duty survival / fighter veterans to literally their second game ever.

Grounded was excellent. I don't have much stomach for building or survival mechanics, so I went into Grounded ready to hate it. But the exploration, plot, and combat was good enough to make even my grumpy rear end deal with survival / building. I kinda doubt Valheim will be as... able to overcome that (from the few hours I played back at launch).

god do I hate collecting a hundred pig iron or whatever

A basic game mechanic like fishing should not be gated by something like discovering the trader. Like the other poster said, it sucks to see fish but have no way to catch them because you haven't found the magical dwarf who unlocks the only way to engage with that food source.

Build a windmill or a suit of iron armor? Sure. Tie a string to a stick? Only the gods know how.

my friends and I have been playing for probably 30 hours and not found him. we're actually doing the thing where we're sailing around now trying to find new Black Forest continents. it sucks.

e: we did find Hildir tho. yayyyyy

Last time a biome was added, it didn't break saves. Any previously explored Mistlands areas on your map were messed up because the placeholder terrain was already written to the world and wouldn't be overwritten by going back there, but any unexplored Mistlands would populate as intended. I assume it will be the same way with the Ashlands here.

Thanks!
