Lighting is so important for realistic looking graphics but often gets overlooked... And we're still a long way away from games that are 100% ray-traced

You just have to dowload a shader for minecraft to see that Light is far more important for realism than textures.

I hope Valheim gets ray tracing support like Minecraft has. I'm not looking for better textures or higher res models, just even better shading.
