So, to be honest. I didn't really like the game within the first about 10 hours. Only because I chose to never look up anything on the wikis, since there really wasn't any specifically for Valhiem, which was inconveniently a bummer. But that's not the point. After a while right after I figured out how to create new items from leveling up the workstation to level 2-3, everything started making so much more sense! Then immediately the game was becoming very enjoyable as my friend and I wander around and unlock new items and things to do.
Hardcore grinding is very necessary when it comes to wood, ores, ect. So, if you do enjoy that kind of game as well as me, then highly recommend!
If I have any cons about this game: World saves cause incredible frame lags ; also random frame lags in general happen often no matter how nice your PC is.
Needing to make a roof for a workstation or forge gets very repulsive. It can be such a hassle to get it right at times, and honestly feels pretty stupid. Especially when it gives me that "Workstation is too exposed" notification, nothing gets me more frustrated.
- Key points -
If you are stupid like me and don't look things on the wiki:
-When you defeat the bosses, you can hand their heads on the stones at your spawn and it gives you different power ups
-In the hammer, anything that has a star next to it, it will upgrade the workstation, forge, ect. to the next level
-When making ore runs, since they weigh so much, I highly suggest making bronze nails as soon as possible to craft a cart. It will make your life 10x easier.
-Turn off camera shake, it gives it a fake and headachey feeling to me imo. It's not a game that really needs shake.

I'd play it again.
