As though life in Valheim‘s viking purgatory isn’t already fraught enough, one player is filling his server with Dollar General stores and chain restaurants, to the exasperation of his friends. Just like in real life, the dreary, fluorescent-lit box stores started with just a single location, and have since spread to multiple biomes across the server.
The saga started when X user Greg the Sorcerer, as picked up by PC Gamer, posted a screenshot of a Dollar General store lovingly recreated in Valheim, saying he was “pissing off my friends in Valheim by building Dollar Generals.” The attention to detail in the store is pretty impressive, with an eye-catching glowing sign on the front facade and fluorescent lighting in the interior.

Greg’s friends started popping up soon after, with user Paladin Posting sharing a screenshot of the same building with the caption: “WTF is a Dollar General. Why is it in my Valheim server.” Another user, Woman Mage, also shared a view of the building from a different angle with the caption “this is just absurd.”
