Do not call this game "Valheim but with Vampires" please.
It's a great game. Great combat, with very cool ideas and systems.

But trying to lure people in with the "Valheim" comparison is just silly.
Those who enjoy Valheim, mostly love it for the exploration, expensive sand box possibilities and the very robust base building. While some of these elements are in fact present in V Rising, it's very CLEARLY not it's strongest suit. And I'm pretty sure Valheim fans come into it will end up being disappointed.

The lack of procedural generation of world, limited and finite resources, and the basebuilding not allowing to create structures (not just customized interior) to express your creativity will turn them away.

The solid combat, PvP experience, and extensive craft system, along with other cool ideas, like the "Sun" being a factor etc... Are where V Rising shine.

Point being, be honest when it comes to what this game is and who its supposed to appeal to.

Valheim was minecraft with vikings. V rising is valheim with vampries in an isometric view. Is it a bad thing? No, but survival games don't change enough when their similarities are too numbered to.

Absolutely calling this game Vampire Valheim when describing it to friends. Dont be pedantic.
The traits the game has from valheim is:

1: Bosses that gives you perks (36 bosses iirc over valheim's 5)
2: Base building, albeit not as custom as you can with valheim
3: Teleportation, albeit preset locations
4: Grinding and gathering for materials for the base building/resources

Where it's better than valheim for us who felt like valheim was too difficult:

1: No stamina bar, you can easily get out of a tough situation as you run faster than the enemy, and your dashing can get you even further away.
2: No constant tresspassing by annoying enemies (at least so far after 1 boss done)
3: You don't need buffs to easily take on a harder enemy

Or maybe, just maybe, they could look into the game before buying it. Basic research would explain everything they need to know, and avoid any disappointment. Unless of course, they prefer to buy first, based on assumptions and hearsay.

And every shooter game is DOOM? Come on man this is such a stretch. Ofcourse games in the same genre will share similarities.
