The idea is solid, the seed is prepared, I just need more players. I'm looking for 3-4 people to play 1-2 times a week (in addition to the 3-4 players I already have) if we can get people together often enough.
What are we doing you might ask? My buddy and I have set up a server with a fully functioning Grand Adventure Lodge. It has two NPC's, played by us. It has an NPC run shop, crafting tables, vehicles to rent or buy and even several bungalows to rent. There is a mercenary/bodyguard for hire (my buddy's NPC who also offers quests along with my character. There will be events for the in-game community to participate in (evil NPCs that will attack the lodge or other player built areas).
The idea was simple, what if we took a full server and let everyone make their own choices. No sharing map location and PVP on. Just an open world. Want to run off and do your own thing? Do it. Want to team up with others at the lodge? Do it. Want to become a farmer, how about a fisherman, a blacksmith, a pirate, or a thief? Go ahead. Talk to the NPCs and take a quest. Trade and barter with your fellow players who may be at different stages of the game.
I hope to run the server 2 ish times a week for about 2-4 hours at a time. No one will be allowed on between sessions to mess with anything. The server will be backed up after every session. I have 3-4 friends ready to become player characters, we need about that many more. Obviously I will take steps to make sure no one can ruin our fun, but in-game…anything goes.
Details –
Valheim Plus mod is required to be activated. I have a video to show people how to install that mod on my discord.
We have created a space on our discord for everything valheim.
Potential new players from this post will need to be interviewed by me before being allowed to join the group…this is simply to verify that people I bring in are:
NOT CHILDREN (the game is mature as will be the discussions had in the discord)
Not racist, sexist, etc.
We won't tolerate any sort of hateful speech or actions aimed at other players. This is a FUN experiment.
If anyone is interested, please post below with your discord name and #. I will reach out until I fill the ranks. Hopefully plenty of people respond, and if so I must apologize now, because I can't take everyone.
Got questions? Fire away!
Edit: central US location, your connection will probably be terrible if you're on the other side of the world….its not discrimination on my part, but there is a limit to the lag I will allow.
