Games are a diverse and interesting lot, but most of them evolved almost a century ago from a few particular groups. Today’s post is going to talk about the roots of gaming and about where we were, where we are, and where we could go.

Valheim has multiple levels of gearing up, with each related to defeating one of the Fallen. You start off with basically rag, wood, and stone, and end up with magical gear of all sorts. But what’s the best gear to use at the various “ages”?

Like our previous post, we’re talking about mead again. That’s right, that delicious beverage made from honey and fruit, which seems to be one of the earliest alcoholic drinks humans ever made. That mead. But we’re talking about it specifically in the context of Valheim. In Valheim, mead is the basis of the game’s potion system. Health potion? Actual mead. Damage resistance potion? Also mead. All is mead. To healy healy you gotta drinky the drinky.

You got the time? We got the games. Haptic is a place for games and even though we’re small and scrappy right now, we’re working our way up and out. Keep tuned in because we’re always working on something new for you guys. So, what’s today’s post about? That? No, that’s later. Today’s post is a summation of the games we have available now.
Leinfors was a paragon of virtue for the community. He was highly devoted to Terraria and ensuring it lived up to the standards of the players.

In Valheim, one of the very important aspects of the game is brewing potions that offer instant healing, resistance to certain types of damage, restoration of eitr (magic), and so on. What I think I find most interesting about Valheim's potion system is that it’s based on an alcoholic drink. In this case, mead.

Minecraft was something I didn’t get into early enough, I think. I don’t know why – it’s right up my alley. Maybe I thought it was boring. Maybe my tastes had just changed. Whatever it was I didn’t purchase a copy of the game until my birthday in 2018. A friend of mine was playing it online and they really wanted me to play with them, so I scrounged up some money from the couch cushions, bought a copy from Mojang, and got to it.
Playing games has evolved from the 80's to the modern.

Valheim has very little “back story” to it – and really, that’s okay, it’s a game about survival. That said, the creators did scatter some tidbits throughout the game. The opening crawl is particularly interesting, as it describes how Odin confined his enemies to a mysterious tenth world. So what of this world, and what of the other realms?

In Valheim, capes give you a slight boost for eating up an inventory slot early on, but later on become absolutely essential to have. We’re gonna talk about the game aspects of each cape…but we’re also going to talk about the real world attributes of such things, along with any historical or mythological standing they might have.
