Key notes
Unfortunately, screen shaking is a problem in most survival games and Valheim is no exception.
If you look at the positive side, the camera shake adds a little bit of thrill to the game when a boss comes to play butfor some users, this effect is too much:
Some games have a way to disable/reduce screen shake. I get awful headaches playing survival games where the screen shakes every time I harvest a resource.
Is there a way to reduce this in the game yet? I saw nothing obvious but sometimes people have some easy hacks like changing a value on an INI or something and I was hoping someone had advice for me?
The problem is that screen shaking can also occur for regular activities in the game like harvesting resources as the gamer above complains.
Fortunately, there is a simple solution for this and we are going to share it with you in this article.
How can I reduce the screen/camera shake in Valheim?
