- Hello Vikings! So excided to share this new build with you all! I worked on this project through the month of October, so I definitely leaned into some Spooky season themes. Not the most pleasant Valheim Town to visit, but still a beautifully (and dreadfully) crafted story that I think you all will like! Enjoy!

This guy should be hired for level design.
But devs don’t hire people with imagination or a shred of originality anymore … they just want money for low effort 😅. Just watching this makes me want to play it again. ..
absolutely
Agreed, I see some good potential here. :)
100% was what im about to comment.
Would be way more fun than my day job! Lol. Honestly this comment means a lot. Thank you so much for the support!
Coffee Stain needs to hire you to add more POIs in this game! This would be amazing to find randomly in the game. That is one of the main things missing in this game.
Great job.
exactly what i thought
i came to comment this, it’s insane he really should be making pois
Yeah the existing ruins you find are pretty basic and pitiful.
Coffee Stain is just the publisher, Irongate is the developer. Hiring would be the later, not the former.
@@reyhaz *pushes up glasses* "Ehm, actually"... It doesn't really matter dude, he's just saying whoever is in charge of hiring should do it.
if iron gate would employ smitty just to build random stuff and make the game look less unpopulated, maybe do some side story around this places.... damn it would be a great improvement for valheim
If that's a job that needs filling, then sign me up! Would be way more fun than what I do now! lol
I want a whole expansion in this vibe.
The people have spoken! They want spooky builds
@@smittysurvivalspooky builds are the best builds!
I want the word "vibe", erased from our collective languages.
@@godbelow You're giving off kind of a cringe vibe
Imagine a premade map with two dozen locations like those scattered throughout the biomes.. That would elevate the gameplay experience so much. Now let the modding scene grow, add unique bosses/elite enemies in there, prevent players from building anything (Beside maybe beds, camp fires and crafting station) and we pretty much turned Valheim from a survival game to an actual RPG. I'd love to play something like that ngl.
Seriously this would be the ultimate game!
Honestly i think it might be a good idea to reach out the devs, this is awesome
I love finding old ruins in games like this, cleaning them of monsters, tidying them up and repairing them again so that I can use them as a base, especially when you're not that far into the game and you've patched up the stone structures with wood it's really brilliant. I wish places like this could be found everywhere in Valheim.
Would be such a great addition! Hopefully in the future!
Yep, I would definitely NOT want to live there. This actually really feels like Tristram. I could just imagine a group of Dungeon raiders discovering a hidden stairwell behind the Church altar only to find King Leorics undead minions waiting for them below. You really nailed the bleak feeling of desolation. Beautiful in a horrid way 😁
Totally has Tristram vibes! Glad you liked this one and appreciate the support as always :)
Smitty when have I not liked any of your work ? 🙃but this one is a notch better than some. @@smittysurvival
This build is absolutely fantastic, and truly fitting for October. Thank you so much for adding what mods you use - I keep forgetting to get them until I see another video from you XD Headed to the Nexus now.
Thank you so much! So happy you enjoyed this one - Yes I use some mods, but it's very light, and mostly for convenience than outright game-changing. Everything utilized in the map is still standard game assets. Appreciate the support!
this is INCREDIBLE. by far my favorite build you've ever done. thank you for taking the time to do this, and to show us your amazing work!!!
Oh wow thank you so much! Comments like this really make the work that goes into these worth it :) Appreciate the support!
talking about stopping and staring is so real to me. I do the same thing when im working on a big build in minecraft all the time.
Indeed it's a curse that all builders are afflicted with, no matter what game lol
As an older person I stumbled onto this video and found it surprisingly creative, I enjoyed every minute of it along with your narrative reasoning behind each of the structures. I hope you find a way to turn this creative pursuit into a real way to make a living, you definitely have a talent.
Holy crap this is very well done! 16:32 even added the raven there and made the cinematic even better!, i am glad i found this trending in youtube lol, subscribed.
Thank you! Honestly I don't even know how that Raven go there - the game just knew it was a perfect spot lol. So happy you enjoyed this! Appreciate the support!
I like to build in the swamp. Typically, I find an existing structure (such as a crypt) and build around it. I haven't thought to construct ruins - typically, I construct buildings for me to use when I'm in the area. It might be fun to fill an island or two with ruined structures and villages, all connected by overgrown paths. A world filled with structures like this could be shared so that others who want a world that looks more lived-in can explore its secrets. Unfortunately, anything like this will become out of date whenever a major update comes along.
I couldn’t agree more with all those saying your work needs to be brought to the Big Time! This is such an incredibly immersive and expressive creation! 100/10. I love the background music as well! If anyone knows what it might please do tell!
background music - ruclips.net/video/cmLeG3JsJGE/видео.html
People that make stuff like this blows my mind, i always see things like this and think "i can do that no problem" then vuild my basic ass box house, mad props man keep up the awesome work
LOL! We all have to start somewhere!
This is brilliant, you have some serious talent as a world builder with great understanding of lore ideas to create compelling environments too.
I've never played this game, but this looks so incredibly awesome. This would be such a cool area to stumble into in any game, and its crazy that this was made by a player. Good job dude, it looks so cool!
If you ever get the chance to try it out, would definitely recommend! Valheim surprised me in many ways! Glad you liked it and appreciate the support!
WOW! This is a f****ng amazing masterpiece of artwork! The atmosphere is captured so fantastically and the story that the village tells makes your blood run cold. My favorite place is the gallows. The consistency with which you approached this project is simply incredible!
This is one of the best build videos I've ever seen.
Wow thank you so much! So happy you liked it!
The fact that you instilled so much time and focus on details on this is really impressive. You are one of those who would be perfect in level design of games. Kudos!
Thank you so much! Indeed a ton of time and focus go into these projects, so thank you for noticing! Lol maybe I'll take some level design classes and change careers ;)
glad to see you're starting to get more attention, you deserve it dude. not only are the builds always immaculate and beautiful, the storytelling / presentation of the video is really artistic and excellently done, getting better and better. good shit!
Thank you! Yeah channel has been steadily growing as of recent! Very grateful to be able to share my hobby with a community that appreciates it! :) Makes all the work worth it!
Bro this is hauntingly good. I love the care and planning that goes into these builds. You're awesome at storying through design.
Thank you so much! Yes, so much work goes into this stuff but it's always nice to hear when people appreciate the result :) Thank you for the support!
This is amazing and gorgeous. Honestly it's digital art. Well done!
Thank you so much! It does feel like a niche form of art at times! Appreciate the support!
Thank you, it was really interesting for me to watch this😊
Thank you! So glad you liked it and appreciate the support!
Dreadful build, horrifying presentation, ghastly video. Loved every second, 10/10 :D Story elements were really well done, really brought the whole thing to life... or death?
You put a lot of love and care into these builds and they're very beautiful. This is basically art in a video game amazing job. I wish you the best and most creative builds in the future
Thank you so much! Yes a lot of work does go into these projects. Just glad I can share it with people who can appreciate the creativity :)
This earned you a new sub and follower. I love dark and gloomy designs like this. The lighting is incredible, and adding in remnants of battle torn spots is phenomenal. Good job and keep builds like this coming!
Thank you so much! Welcome to the channel and appreciate the support!
Resident Evil: Valheim is amazing! Your attention to story details is second to none. My favorite build to-date.
Thank you so much! Lol totally does have some Resident Evil vibes!
Хотела написать, что нужно добавить это место в официальную игру для какого-то веста, но - это уже написали раньше меня 😅. Поэтому просто благодарю за атмосферу, за впечатления и за мои фантазии и истории, которые появились в моей голове, когда я смотрела ваше видео. ❤ Хочу поиграть в этом сохранении, в этой локации) ❤❤❤
This is way too cool, congrats on another amazing build :P Always happy to see your videos come out!
Thank you! So cool to hear when people continually look forward to the content :) Appreciate the support!
This is one of your best builds yet. So much atmosphere and story telling.
Thank you so much! I agree the atmosphere and thematic integrity of this one is super strong!
absolutely phenomenal build. Wish we could run across poi's like this in game.
Thank you! Yes I agree, would make the world feel so much better!
The environmental storytelling of this build is so breathtaking! Imagine if IronGate Studios hired this guy to make structures like this that can be generated into the real biomes of the game.
Truly it's all about environmental storytelling! Would be incredible to work for IronGate!
@@smittysurvival I wonder if they are hiring haha. All I know is that they use Unity Engine for this, so C# programming and know how with procedural generated terrain might be key.
Wow. I've seen a lot of builds throughout the years but this feels like the most organic one out of them all. I've worked on my own theme park world of sorts here and there but haven't touched the game in quite a while. This would definitely get me back into the game to recreate near the massive graveyard biome I had carved out if I weren't already playing through BG3 atm. Absolutely my favorite build of all-time.
One thing for sure, this game needs locations full of stories like this. You would make a great environment artist for this game or any game actually. Nice work!
Nice work! You would be a great game map designer :)
Thank you so much! I appreciate this comment a lot :)
It’s absolutely incredible! Dream big my friend you have a great talent that should be utilized. Showing all of your great creations here is very wise since now they are all immortalized!
Thank you so much! I'll keep dreaming! Appreciate the support!
Absolutely incredible. Thanks you for sharing your process with us - it makes you appreciate the end result so much more!
This is so creative and really inspiring. The church surroundings really put the whole build together for me.
Thank you! Yes the church and surrounding graveyard really set a dark tone for sure! Glad you liked it!
This is absolutely INCREDIBLE. The level of detail and storytelling is amazing and gives so much more depth to your builds. Truly so impressive
This build looks incredibly cool. Would definitely send a shiver down my spine exploring that place, especially considering how the swamps are already haunting. Great job!
I've never watched anything related to Valheim before, and I'm honestly so happy this is my first exposure to it! The town is so beautiful in such a haunting way, and the music you used added so much to the general vibe. Amazing video!!!
Dude this is incredible, I love that you keep it very simplistic in nature with no gimmicky placement of stuff, just great lighting and good placement of the buildings and walls makes it look so natural and apart of the world. I wish their were places like this in the game to explore. Great job dude
Love the design! Great job!
Dude I gotta say, I share the same enthusiasm as you when it comes to world building and environmental storytelling. I just LOVED to get to know your work and all the effort and attention you put into it, its wonderful, pieces of art even. Keep on with the great work, loved the video and how you put it together while explaining what you were trying to do, loved the cinematic at the end aswell. This, what you do here, is truly art.
I just gotta say I have been running some of your videos in the background and I have to say you have been a real inspiration for me in building. Course I don't build in creative so it takes me MUCH longer to build, but I get a lot of joy out of that. Looking at my castle I am working on I get a sense of pride knowing I went out and collected every log and stone type of thing. Regardless, you have helped me a lot in ideas to spruce it up! Look forward to more amazing builds!
Super cool man. First time viewer, keep it up!
This is incredible! Your building designs are so creative and way beyond what I thought was possible in Valheim. I definitely need to jump back in and mess around with the building mechanics again.
Amazing work! Finding this randomly in my travels through "just another swamp" would send chills up my spine and completely trigger my imagination and curiosity. All that's missing is a mini-boss to spawn from one of the two fissures and there is suddenly an epic tale to tell back at camp.
Amazing job dude! This is so cool
Tout simplement magnifique ! Quel talent. Un grand bravo !
Amazing build, i get a strong Diablo / Vermintide vibe watching this one. Not only you nailed the dark fantasy style but you also got the technical stuff with aged building, combat destructions, very well done sir!
That's some creative stuff dude, nice!
Epic!
Nice work yo!
Another excellent build! You're one of the few youtubers where I get excited when a new video drops.
Wow! Thank you so much! This comment actually means a lot to me :) Appreciate the support!
Of course bro, no problem! Just in case you haven't thought of it, Barad-Dur when the Ashland update comes out would be cool.
wow, this was awesome dude! good job!
This is so awesome! Haven't played Valheim in a long time, might have to get back into it! Thank you for sharing.
glorious! I know squat about Valheim, but I love the halloween aesthetic anywhere I can find it, and you did a fantastic job! really dig the environmental storytelling elements. makes me wanna work a town like this into my D&D games. 11/10, the vibes are immaculate.
Wow! 😮
Awsome design and build!
This was seriously impressive man! Great work:)
Such a good build, with your theming really standing out!
Thank you! I agree, the thematic integrity on this one is very strong!
my boi. this church is actually the dope sauce. way to go homie. great content!!!!
Wow, that is incredible! That is the best Valheim build I've seen yet, and that's saying a lot. Nice work!
Amazing work!
You have an exceptional talent 💪
Thank you so much! So happy you liked it
Toss a skeleton spawner in the fissures so they actually come out of there. Awesome build btw
That would be sick. Though the fissure would need some sort of ramp built into it, so the skeletons can escape from it.
@thestorminmormin1442 oh yeah that's true. They were pretty deep. Either way its a sweet spooky season build
Totally thought about this! But yes as mentioned in the other comments they'd just get stuck without some kind of ramp lol
This is a gorgeous build. I don't even leave comments on videos. But I had to make sure you know how awesome I think this build is. Well executed, creative, and unique. I watch a lot of Vallheim build inspo videos and have not yet seen anything like this.
Wow thank you so much! Appreciate you stopping in and leaving a comment :) Glad you liked it!
I had a lot of fun with this game at launch, but haven't played it since. That being said, this is bloody awesome, mate. Well done!
So mesmerizing, so captivating! One could even say... fang-tastic! It's so awesome that even I couldn't resist taking a break from bloodsucking to watch it!
LOL! Could be a fitting home for CountBane ;) Thanks for stopping in!
@@smittysurvival Yes that church looks like a perfect place for a Midnight Mass! One question if u dont mind.. How do u record ur character from another perspective while building?
Looks awesome my dude!
this is beautful, i love how much thought and care went into every last piece!
Excellent work, very cool! 😃
man this is so cool! the little details that you came up with are awesome, and the church looks so good looming over the rest of the settlement. Love the effect of the guck in the water and making the church seem like a place where skeletons were emerging from was a awesome idea, i think it came out really cool. Thanks for sharing!! i wish there was a mod that could allow you to place all the things you placed without it putting you into creative mode tho haha, i just wanna have all the in game files / peaceable items available on my regular hammer cuz i love building things in the base game without devcommands/flying around
smitty has done it again! showing great versatility and creativity
Thank you so much! Yeah this project was really a great creative challenge and I think is a great example of how Valheim's build system enables creative expression!
Really great village man. Very creative and cool! :)
This is looks crazy good! Much better design then most MMO have or even had. XD
Great job, i love the design and the ascetic, it well fit together IMHO.
amazing work!!! itd be even more creepy (and more taxing on your system) with the HD textures
Lol my PC would be on fire with HD textures
Amazing work! Awesome!!!
Thank you so much!
This looks fantastic! your work is amazing, man. I don't event play Valheim anymore but I'm subbing, seeing these works of art are sure worth it :)
Keep it up! greetings from Argentina
Smitty mate this is a work of art. Very well done!
that's awesome.. swamps looks so cool. great job
Thank you! I agree - Swams have a wonderfully dark feeling to them. Glad you liked it!
This looks absolutely amazing!
What a masterpiece man, you are extremely creative. Pleasure to watch!
Looks like the haunted towns in new world. Awesome work man!
I've never played new world! I'll have to check it out!
I've never played this game, but this town looks like something built for a Necromancer. Also looks like something from Witcher 3.
Totally fits the vibe!
I really enjoyed this video! Bravo!
Absolutely phenomenal! This is is very well done…and creepy as hell lol subbed. Great great job
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed and welcome to the channel!
Awesome work! The church and the fortress are just great. I agree that building in different biomes gives a very different vibe.
Really impressive, awesome job.
mesmerizing, what is this game never heard of it time to watch some valheim clips. I really like ur design!
this is SO SICK! i love it !
Great build, very ominous! It looks like this is a scourged village than has plagued by the undead & war for a long time. I love the vibes!
Amazing work!
Pardon the delay in watching yet another amazing video of yours. Even your dreadful towns are beautifully done!
Awesome job - your videos always impress! I'm trying really hard not to play Valheim until ashlands drops so I don't get burnt out, but watching your videos is a happy compromise.
This ish looks dope AF!!
Excellent work, man!
Thank you so much! Glad you liked it!
Superb. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for supporting!
Man, this is absolutely epic! I would love to be wandering through the swamps and stumble upon a ghost town like this. Fantastic work. 👌
This is some really great architectural storytelling. Well done!
Thank you so much! Glad you liked it!
