People say this is like Valheim. The only thing this shares with Valheim is the fact that you gather resources, use resources, build bases, and level up. V Rising is more like.. Tribes of Midgard without the waves and time crunch systems, replacing those with Open World Persistence, more akin to CryoFall.

The game can be fun, has PVE elements for exploration as well as character progression related to hunting "bounties" of special "boss" rank enemies, a research system using collectibles from killing a bunch of a certain type of enemy or finding tomes of knowledge that give specific researches, "Class" archetypes from feeding on enemies with a blood purity of a certain % and calibre
(the bonuses for eating rats are different from the bonuses of feeding on a brute/warrior/rogue/creature enemy and each can have randomized Quality %'s that determine what tier of bonus you get from what class of blood)

Base building is a bit basic, but for what it is, I've definitely seen worse and it's quite enjoyable IMO

The tutorial could be a bit better though.
