I tried OSRS as someone that’s never played RuneScape before and I gotta say, the pretty polygons are one of the main reasons I kept playing and had fun. pretty world doesn’t have to be 100GB
Maybe pixelart adjacent? The textures are clearly chunky as is the foliage and many other transparencies. It’s a 3D world but so is Prodeus and Dead Cells. Both use pixel art masking (not sure what it’s actually called) to make it pixel like. Dead Cells is more pixel art than Prodeus but they both bend the rules of pure pixels compared to Terraria. And I like that!
Pixels or not, valheim is so beautifully atmospheric! It’s like morrowind and studio ghibli had a baby and named it Baldur. I have a home in each biome that I rotate through just to experience their unique beauties.
You should should absolutely go back and try it again, the Mistlands and Ashlands are so well designed. I find the swamp is easiest if you take it slow and use the hoe to build roads through the muck. Serpents can’t catch the iron tier boat unless you fight the wind and they’re not really worth the hassle to hunt unless you really want their head for decor, normally if I see one I just detour to wherever the wind takes me until they lose interest.
