It might take a while before Iron Gate releases the full version of Valheim, but there are still a lot of players who are investing time and effort to customize their bases on their respective servers. For Reddit user wanderous-boi, they built an impressive tavern with four floors, complete with a bar and kitchen, on a private Valheim server they run. In a comment, the player teased that they plan on building a bigger town around it, which will include a smith shop, a farm, a dock, and houses.

Many Valheim fans praised wanderous-boi and their tavern design, especially how they utilized the wood and stone to create the structure's accents. Some were particularly impressed by the tavern's kitchen, which has three stone ovens, a butcher table, and cooking tools displayed around the room. Meanwhile, others said they plan on replicating the tavern's design, which they could either do by scratch or install a Valheim mod to download it using BuildShare.

Valheim is one of the many sandbox games that lets players express their creativity, from character creation to building structures like castles. There's also no one way to play this game, as each run can offer different experiences and challenges, and players have to use their wits and skills to defend themselves from powerful boss monsters.

With Valheim still in early access, many players can still expect some bugs and glitches in their games. Fortunately, Iron Gate has made sure to roll out Valheim patch updates to address these issues, making sure that players have a smooth experience. Valheim's full version may not have a release date yet, but avid players are confident that the game will continue to grow in the coming months or years. It's also possible that Iron Gate will add new features, NPC battles, and game modes to Valheim in the future.
