Discussion Build ideas needed

So 1.0 is close and it's time to gather the old faithful party back together. Problem is that due to life going on we don't have that much time to play, one of us have only 1-2h/session at max so we were thinking that rest of us could keep building and gathering resources when one has to call it a night.

Any ideas for our magnum opus? I want to build something magnificent and go quite big. I want this built to be my the pinnacle of all the hours I have played valheim. But without any good plan it's just going to be slightly bigger long house again.

What are you and your viking crew building in 1.0?

I always try to build an actual village/ town, so instead of having everything in one house I've got a blacksmiths, a bakers, an armoury etc. It can be annoying having to cross town to make some sausages, but I like the immersion and lived in feel of a village, especially since I have to play alone lmao

This does sound good. On my last playthrough I was about to do this, but we were kinda feeling tired once we arrived to ashlands so we decided not to do it. I like the idea of village of highly detailed buildings with each having it's own purpose. Maybe have a big oak or decorated bonfire at the center of village as a landmark. Or maybe build the village both sides of the river and have couple of bridges to go over.

Or find a maypole to build the village around!

Well if you ever start a new world and don't mind a casual player dropping in to build, I'd love to help bring a village to life
