Or is that not a thing? I don’t recall seeing much in the way of party games in a self hosted environment.

    The wife and I has returned to Valheim on a selfhosted dedicated server during the holidays, not sure if an adventuring party is the party you were thinking about. I’ve been /dancing on the ship as she steers it over the ocean though.

    Most of the “party” games I have require no self hosting, it’s just split/shared screen co-op on the TV, Gang Beasts is a favourite and depending on what friends are over Genital Jousting can also be booted up for some laughs.

      My wife and I have also returned to Valheim during the holidays 😂

      We didn’t get far on our first playthrough, we barely got past the swamp, but this time we’re about to get to the mistlands!

        Nice!

        We always get to mountain, then run out of steam before restarting a few months later.
        Have fun!

        We’ve done our first crypt this playthrough then we got busy building rest stops and roads, farming and all that. Good job getting to the mistlands!

        First time meeting a monster can be a bit scary, especially the sea serpent on a stormy ocean, but you get used to them and soon enough they start to look like moving resource piñatas.

        Practice blocking and dodging and prioritize having a good shield and good food buffs and most things work themselves out.
