Valheim Player Rebuilds Skyrim's Riverwood, And It Only Took Three Days
Valheim's flexible building tools plus its adjustable difficulty settings let a player reproduce a recognizable Skyrim location in about three days, which is the kind of crossover players were already set up to make after the game's September 9 official release.
Reporting from 1 source: Automaton.
A Valheim player using the handle Naguta recreated Riverwood, the first village most players visit in The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, and posted a three-minute video of the build. Naguta told the outlet it took about three days, helped by a Valheim setting that removes material costs for building, with a friend handling the land flattening.
Naguta's video runs about three minutes and shows wooden houses along a cobblestone road, with interiors that include a smelter and smithing tools in the blacksmith's forge. Riverwood is the small village players reach after escaping Helgen at the start of Skyrim, home to the Sleeping Giant inn, the Riverwood Trader general store, a blacksmith's forge and a sawmill.
Naguta named the angle from the gate looking toward Alvor's blacksmith shop, Sven and Hilde's house and the Riverwood Trader as the part worth getting right. The reactions, Naguta said, leaned on lines from the village's NPCs.
