Valheim Mistlands: Building A Riverside Castle

[@ZomZeroBuilds]

Been waiting for this to drop, and I'm not disappointed, an absolute gem of a build mate, the intro was well put together, loved watching the timelapse, and the Talk Through during the tour was on key, overall mate a big 10/10 The interior you can see you put as much thought into it as you did with the build itself, Great stuff Thank you for this build.

[@TheBasicBuilder]

Thanks Zom!! Really appreciate it.

[@stevebreedlove9760]

You said form over function. But realistically few places are perfect canvasses. I think archeology shows we just kind of kept adapting and changing our built environment to accomodate new realities. Eg, the castle ceased to be worth the expense of societal energy once large cannons that could breach walls replaced pre-firearm siege machines.

[@ValheimEmpire]

Beautiful build my friend. I just uploaded my base and this gave me a few ideas to incorporate. Will take me a few month but well worth it. Thank you!

[@TheBasicBuilder]

Glad you enjoyed the build!!

[@zanemichaels3366]

One of the best builds I’ve ever seen. The attention to detail is just perfect!

[@TheBasicBuilder]

Thank you! 😊

And then, build some stairs up to the mountain top and build a monastery.

I didn't catch where the music is from? I loved listening to it will watching, very stimulating. Please share!

[@TheBasicBuilder]

I get all my music from Epidemic Sound

[@audreywinter6910]

Mind blown! Such a gorgeous build, I love it! The details on the many faces of the building bring it to life, every tiny window has it's own personality and purpose. Beautiful.

[@TheBasicBuilder]

Thank you!

[@garysearby9478]

You're anything but a "Basic Builder". Your creations are awesome.

[@TheBasicBuilder]

Thanks Gary!!

[@ulrichgamingandmusic]

Excellent build. I got chills at the intro. You upped your editing game, love to see it.

[@TheBasicBuilder]

Thank you!!

[@SkywalkerThor]

I really like the customized interior. Well thought out and hope to see more builds in the near future!

[@cherrylicious8772]

wow basic. this is awsome.. lovely.. so good.. one my fav things is that u used hanging brazier and the base for the chandy.. .. why i never thought of that i dont know. ive used them for other..creative things befor but not that.. very kool. loved it. x

[@TheBasicBuilder]

Thanks Cherry!!

[@demigawd8409]

Awesome job as always Basic. Beautiful cinematic intro as well. Keep up the great work friend.

[@TheBasicBuilder]

Thank you Demi!

[@Varjahn]

Very nice and creative build, I love both the exterior and interior. Keep up!

[@TheBasicBuilder]

Thank you!

[@VibeHeim]

extremely handsome build, sir. i'm a bit jealous of your organized mind, lol. my builds are often too free-flow and messy.

[@TheBasicBuilder]

Thank you very much!! I loved building this Castle and I am working on two more now.

[@reboooot]

Wow what a cool edit. if you put it at 2x speed, the first song still sounds great!

[@TheBasicBuilder]

Glad you like it!!

[@themoohawkman4067]

I wish hope they update the smoke at some point so you don’t have to use a whole wall section worth of space for proper ventilation

[@TheBasicBuilder]

That would be nice

[@TpowerTES]

prolly would wanna build my castle on top of the hill instead of right next to it for defensive reasons very pretty build tho

[@rcbonz64]

Big fan of your builds.... absolutely awesome.

[@TheBasicBuilder]

Thank you very much!

[@astingilbert582]

Man, This game has the best building system. I could probably spend hours just building in creative. Then realizing that I can't build shit, and close the game 10 minutes after thinking that I could build something.

[@TheBasicBuilder]

It really does have the best building system!!

[@trooper5987]

overall super nice build! the part above the entrance look abit flat tho and could have used abit more detail

[@missan66]

I love this build! Im new to valheim but i will try to build this :) Thankyou for the inspiration!

[@TheBasicBuilder]

Thank you and you’re welcome

[@missan66]

Do you have any tips on where to find an area like that to build on? I guess its hard with different seeds but i take a chance popping the question. :D @@TheBasicBuilder

[@TheBasicBuilder]

@@missan66 so I have my build worlds I use. My whole map is explored using console commands and I look for rivers on every island. Just be patient until you find the right location

you keep outdoing yourself basic, another great job. Are these build all on one world tho?

[@TheBasicBuilder]

My latest builds are on the same world. When I am done building here, I will put this world on my Patreon page.

[@marebbpc]

@@TheBasicBuilder yeah i was gonna say you should put the world or builds up "for sale"

[@schnellrauf]

this looks very cool! i just started playing the game a week ago but i stopped before the third boss and now im spending my time mostly building. im wondering one thing though: isnt wood falling apart when it rains on it? so would this roof not break after a while or is this build "only for the looks?"

[@TheBasicBuilder]

So the wood if exposed to rain, will only degrade to 50%. A lot of this is for looks but this build is fully functional as well. The roofs do not degrade. I hope this helps answer your question 😁

[@schnellrauf]

@@TheBasicBuilder Thanks for the reply! That helps!

[@Billy-bd2oe]

Looks fantastic. Could you do a video on how one installs mods, seems like a pain, you need to download a whole bunch of stuff just to be able to install the actual mods!

[@TheBasicBuilder]

Yea I can do that

[@Flyingdutchy33]

A general comment towards _all_ builders on youtube: Why do you not give the interior the same attention as the exterior?

[@TheBasicBuilder]

I can’t speak for everyone but I am horrible at interiors. I would love to make them better but interiors are hard for me.

[@Ulvehunden1970]

About stairs, i can see why you in limited space use the "ladder-stair", but will you tell me if you havent thought of the new spiralstairs ?, or if it is to keep the build down to a level, where most can follow ?

[@TheBasicBuilder]

I didn’t use the spiral stairs because that tower is used to get to the workshop area

[@corterri]

Some artistic shit happening here. Good job man, I'm envious. Did you use free build or did you go get the resources? Kinda looks like you were collecting things at some points. If so, that's some dedication!

I gotta know do you go into this with like something drawn out or do you just wing it, I don’t have the imagination to think of something cool then actually bring it to life in game

Lol Zave!! I chose that name because it was easy to remember. As I have played the game for over two years now, I have been able to develop my skills to be a better build. Love the feedback and keep practicing!!

Bro I'm looking for cool inspiration and this just too damn good. I could probably try and recreate this but my only problem is that I'm trying to make something in survival mode. This gonna take me months.
