So you know the drill: open world, crafting, survival game. THIS TIME; pirate themed.
And hug me; it's good.
Souls lite combat, sailing and naval combat, factions to work with, ruins to loot and undead to kill... wait, what? Yup, they managed to work zombies into the game. I have exactly zero complaints.
Story is... there. Edward Teach is on a tear, made a deal with the devil to control the dead, and is sieging tortuga, and fighting everyone who opposes his rule. YOU were just a dude trying to slip your ship and crew through the blockade around tortuga, when you were attacked and boarded by blackbeards forces. They stole... SOMETHING, from your ship. You manage to reclaim it before blackbeards lieutenant shoots you dead.
Your corpse is tossed overboard, the ship set ablaze, and the adventure begins with you waking up on a deserted isle.
It's another early access title, there's plenty more planned, but also quite a bit already implemented. Three biomes, three factions (not counting the enemies.) sailing, fighting, exploring, crafting, fishing...
I'm just getting ready to roll the local boss: but I'm also farming resources to get the "pikeman" set of armor which complements my play style. Bonus damage to two handed weapons, and 160 extra points of health with a full set. Also going to need to start farming boars: need the hides to upgrade the armor I intend to make... *Sigh* barely got a deck under my feet and I've already got a "to-do" list...
It's another valheim folks, and it's damned good.
