The castles are player built
The game gives off vibes like a mixture of Conan Exiles meets Ark meets Mount and Blade, at least to me.
As for gameplay, Official PvP is there of course, but so is Official PvE, as well as hosting a game from within the game itself. Private servers are up and running, and some use boosted rates for those players who like that. There are NPC camps, animals to tame and breed, bases to build and, like Conan Exiles you can "tame" AI characters. The survival part of the game seems pretty balanced, as these things go. I played for around 6 or 7 hours last night and was very content with what I had achieved in the time.
Amusingly but gratifyingly, I tamed a horse doing everything wrong because I had no idea what I was doing.
CAVEAT: For some reason there are owners of the game with far better PCs than mine who cannot get the game to run, but they are working on a fix for that when they find the cause of it. Also, setting up a server from within the game requires tinkering with settings to set it up, and players who have never done this before are finding it tricky.
I hope they do well, and good luck to those of you who want that sort of game.

Are we talking Valheim quality or something much lower like Conan or Ark were when they first went into early access?

You dont ever have to go to a pvp server, so you can start on a pve server build your base, farm, fish and tame/breed horses. Also horses caught in the wild have different stats. You can initially tame 3 horses but if build a stable you can tame more or you can get a male and a female horse and breed them to get both parents stats.
If you start on a pve serverwhen you get to level 16 you can build a structure that allows you to go to a server that directly borders the one you are on and transfer stuff over and go back as long as someone doenst destroy the structure, if so you will need to rebuild it.
As far as pvp and offline raiding stuff, there is a banner you make that you feed with coins earned in game that gives you base up to 120 hours a week protection against being raided while offline.
For now thats all the info I have as it just released to EA yesterday and they added new stuff like elephants and other things that I dont know offhand.
It is EA though so expect it to be a beta state. I am enjoying alot more than Atlas as that game didnt release pve servers til long after the pvp servers at which point I had no interest in going back to it. Here I can stay on the pve and do my thing unmolested.
p.s. I forgot to mention you can also hire and level up npc's to work and fight for you.
I started yet again a couple of hours ago and just recruited a Vagrant NPC tonight, who functions rather like a Pet in other games. It's the same level as my new character, lvl 13, and will attack my targets and so on. At this stage that is all it is capable of, but he can carry the same amount of stuff as I can, so that's a considerable help. I'll have to tame two horses now, lol, one for him and one for me, for a truly massive total carrying capacity.
Combat feels a bit "floaty" and could be tightened up, but at least it is functional, and given the huge range of things to do in the game I don't mind combat not being 100%.

Gloria Victis has warband directional combat and it started out janky as well but they made it alot better now so hope the same for moe.
Dungeons and/or ruins?
Resource gathering, potions, etc.?
Exploration and discoveries?
I'm wondering from a fantasy type of game, how it compares, if that helps.
It's sounding pretty good with what you all are saying, I'm just looking for more.
