Once all the existing Valheim’s content is completely explored, there’re very few things left to do other than to show off exceptional skills. For instance, catching a fish while riding a deer. It is quite understandable that players use all the opportunities to entertain themselves while waiting for the next content update to come out.
This exhausting wait for new official content in Valheim has been brilliantly captured by a simple yet expressive meme. Based on the popular “Sad, Lonely Man” template, the image hilariously depicts all the activities that players get engaged in once the game is explored far and wide. Basically, they do nothing, which is the core idea of the meme. In reality, however, the majority of gamers invest their time into the endless building of new projects. Installing game-changing mods is another solution, which can expand the game’s longevity even more.
A real testimony to one’s skillful performance should be a proper demonstration of exceptional ingenuity, and that’s exactly what a Valheim fan named Th3R3alZero did to show off. As demonstrated in a video on Reddit, this Valheim player managed to catch a fish while intentionally riding a deer in the water. Th3R3alZero was gloating about it via the video’s title, suggesting that other players would hardly ever achieve the same level of coolness. Riding the deer, however, was no easy feat.According to the player, if a deer gets scared near a water reservoir, there’s a good chance that the animal might try swimming away from the danger. If the timing is right, any agile player can jump on the deer’s spine and ride it to glory. The only requirement left is to have a fishing rod in one’s inventory to repeat Th3R3alZero’s trick.
Players have discovered other unconventional methods of catching fish in Valheim. One crafty player came up with a brilliant fish trap design, which doesn’t even require possessing a rod. On top of that, the smart structure allows for catching seafood in huge quantities. Basically, the simple trap consists of a narrow ramp and a set of doors, which help to push the fish towards players’ greedy hands.
It feels like the longer Valheim players are waiting for new content, the sillier their in-game activities are getting. Even such a weird achievement like catching a fish while riding a deer can find widespread approval among fans. That’s definitely a sign that developers should come up with new options to make the endgame portion of Valheim a more diverse experience, and they should do so as soon as possible.
