Maybe pixelart adjacent? The textures are clearly chunky as is the foliage and many other transparencies. It’s a 3D world but so is Prodeus and Dead Cells. Both use pixel art masking (not sure what it’s actually called) to make it pixel like. Dead Cells is more pixel art than Prodeus but they both bend the rules of pure pixels compared to Terraria. And I like that!
Pixels or not, valheim is so beautifully atmospheric! It’s like morrowind and studio ghibli had a baby and named it Baldur. I have a home in each biome that I rotate through just to experience their unique beauties.
Completely agreed!
Dead Cells, Terraria, Valheim, Prodeus, and so many more, gorgeous because of–not in spite of–their pixel graphics!
Valheim is decidedly not pixel art.

That’s awesome! I gave up after the swamp. I died way way too often. And the sea monster hunting me down out of the blue was the end for me.
