![]() People at Valheim also kind of foresaw that thing happening and took a similar course.” Valhalla even did it, there's Thor movies, there is the Loki series now. “We saw things like Overwatch being PvP but with a lot more collaboration and cooperation.And then the Vikings, yeah, everywhere. “Those three trends in the end, almost four years later, kind of materialized,” Maroda said.
