What players think
The recurring themes across 199 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
One the biggest issues I've ran into is multiplayer when i save sometimes all my previous saves don't show up in the save menu and i have like one or 2 auto-saves only. when i save the game in this state and go back to the main menu to load then couple of saves just saw are not on the list to load and only the previous saves are on the list.
Valheim I can play with reasonably low lag, some serious bosses, solid graphics, massive world, safe multi-player, all out of the gate when it hit the market.
Character Progression: up to you if you want to be super strong and trounce those monsters, or heal fast so they can’t beat you down.

all they had to do was take the fairies out and put back pirates like the original and sort out multiplayer issues such as no mouse control after pressing escape and the inability to co-op .
Theme by theme
Every theme is scored by what reviewers actually said about it, not just whether they recommended the game.
Ranked by how many sampled reviews mention each topic. A topic sits in a column by what reviewers said about that topic; the percentage beside it is how many of them recommended the game anyway. One more theme was raised by fewer than 4 sampled reviews and is not shown.
