Valheim is literally a flat planet. You can drive a boat or swim off the edge.

Oh I must've got it confused with some other game then, I could swear the world map was presented as a globe.

[–] Tathas@programming.dev 2 points 11 months ago

It looks kinda like one but the East and West sides are waterfalls.

Haha wow seriously? I played that game a lot but never actually bothered to sail to the edges of the map…

[–] Thrift3499@lemm.ee 2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Yeah, the sailing in Valheim's kind of a slog.

Yup. I remember messing around with some mod once that let you find gear with a bunch of cool, random enchantments on them. I ended up finding some pants that let you walk on water… was pretty silly just running across oceans, but it actually led me to explore more of the world then I would have bothered to do otherwise.
