Is manor lords gonna save the rts genre single handedly? I can't believe it bros we're gonna be so back soon. Just one more month and rts is back.
>>1706091manor lords is a sim with rts aspects. it's literally banished with syx combat.
>>1706097This. People keep comparing it to an RTS or even a Total War game when that's just a minor element of the game. It's a colony survival sim first and foremost, yeah it has combat elements but it's hardly the first in the genre to do something like that, and it certainly doesn't make the game an RTS.
I just want something like that phone version of stronghold minus the p2w shit, so a 3D gameworld and rts are just a bonus
>>1706110any games likes manor lords?
>>1706110>PeopleI dunno if I'd call OP people with a post like that.
>>1706097Even if it's disappointing (probably will be) it can at least not be compared to Banished because it has actual depth
>>1706196lords of the realm
>solo dev>no experience>looks luckluster>ue5to many red flags, no idea why so many people are waiting for it
>>1706332Because we played the demo.
>>1706342>weNot buying your game, also buy an ad.
>>1706332It was started by a solo dev but he hired a crew when the game got picked up by Hooded Horse.Also how does it look lackluster? I can't think of any comparable game that looks better. The simple fact that it's not on a square grid alone makes it look way more soulful than most competing games like Farthest Frontier for example.
>>1706110>Peopleretards*
>>1706276>because it has actual depthYeah, building a medieval village in a village survival sim is soooo fucking deep
>>1706399>but he hired a crewHaving a team of 4 people is still not enough for what this game is pretending to be trying to achieve
>>1706091Very curious.Will see you guys in 2 years when there's a 50% sale for it.
>>1706680>Manor lordsFiefdom management, diplomacy, real time battles just off the top of my head>BanishedTurn off your brain and just keep spamming houses and farms till the game breaks or you get bored. Latter more likelyDoesn't seem like the two are comparable.
>>1706699Banished fucking lacked... in everything. Barely a game.
>>1706361What are you talking about? I'm not making any game.
>>1706196Farthest Frontiervery comfy
>>1706699>Game with bare-bones village sim features is ebic, because I made up shit that's not implemented and never will be>Game with bare-bones village sim features is bad, because it's badWhen in 2035 Manor Lords will eventually be shipped to stores, it's going to be derided as empty, bare-bones Banished clone and you know it. So why already coping about it?
>>1706697Anon, in 2 years, they aren't going to have anything done yet
>>1706681All you need is one or two good programmers and some artists to make assets. It's how all the best games were made. It's sad to see that zoomers are so addicted to AAA slop that they believe a small team can't make a good game.
>>1707532
>>1706091not bad for a mobile game
>>1706091This game is full of trans and gay, it's the new paradrone game for faggots or wehraboos/retards that like to be a king spastic. I heard that they will put some moors or niggers in the streets if they smell bad and they will attack you every time there is a martin looter king protest, congoloids will assault you like the finnish. Faggots, they will put faggots in this game, like you faggots like you. Discords and redditor want this game to be a fucking garbage and your stupid game will be a fucking shit
>>1707531>>1708542The amount of delusional seething one unreleased indie game creates is unreal.
>>1708542Are there really trannies and fags in the game?
>>1708806I don't think so, but there are faggots in their discord, but who know
>>1708873>discordirrelevant. no sane person goes there to have a civil conversation anyways.
>>1708542>martin looter kingAlso I piss on all the delusional autists who think this vaporware is going to be the second coming of Christ.
>>1708542>Discords and redditor want this game to be a fucking garbageIn that case I am desperate for it to succeed. Thanks for the info, schizo-bro.
>>1708785It's less of a seething and more of annoyance. Ever since Banished came out, every single village sim is going to be "destroyer of Banished" and all it does is being just shameless clone with some minor gimmick. Like Farthest Frontier, which was Banished, but your food can rot. Or Ostriv, which is Banished in Ukraine
>>1707531I'll try to remember to reply to your post in April, you can keep seething in the meantime
>>1709871>April>Early AccessI'll continue laughing at you
>>1709871I've got two words for you, about something you already managed to forgot about:Farthest Frontier
>>1706091>Banished clone>RTS genre>Saving>Single handedlyJust buy an ad already, Pawel
>>1710176I have never heard of Banished.
>>1710905It's a ahitty game like this one
>>1710948How do you know if you haven't played Manor Lords yet?
>>1710950Nor i have played banished, i have super powers i can feel how is playing with a game
>>1710905Friendly reminder you must be at least 18 to use this site
>>1710953Ok ESL.
The combat looks shit, unfortunately
250k people are going to be severely disappointed in about 3 weeks
>Fart Lords
I fucking hate games that don't list their price for the game.
>it will be dropping on PC Game Pass "day one" via game preview on 26th April 2024....So its not even coming out finished? kek fuck off
>>1718889Nah, quarter of them will buy at best, the rest already forgot they have it on their wishlistI just hope it goes quick through /vst/, like Farthest Frontier did - bunch of shitposting for 3 weeks and then everyone forgot the game even existed. Last thing I need is another shitposting in tune of Bannerlord's "is good?" or Old World's "what could have been, bros"
I can't believe everyone is just skipping over this being an early access game sold as complete... without a price yet.
Not going to buy an unfinished game in the hopes they will deliver the promised product later, slavs have been pulling this shit for 20 years. The next stage of the scam is then hyping up a half-baked carbon copy sequel to "fix" the unfinished first game and then going bankrupt and disappearing with the money to thailand.
>>1718915What Anon you expect a full game after 5 years?Reminds me of Ostranauts where I followed the game from news blogs for Neo Scavenger. It looked good and I was ready to buy it day 1. Then saw it was EA and noped the fuck out.Why would I pay you money and wait for you to finish your banished clone when I can buy a finished banished clone right now?
>>1719876At least Neo Scavenger was good so I'd give a bit more room, still understand the apprehension. I just read through the thread and everyone is talking about it but seem to just... leave it out that its unfinished and has NO PRICE on steam or its website still. Less than a month from release.
I definitely enjoyed the demo, but I can tell that there will be many bugs and some performance issues (performance was actually decent in the demo), so I'll wait a bit longer for them to be ironed out.
>>1706276Just from what i've seen in the demo, i'm can pretty confidently say that it's gonna be a good village building game at the very least.
>>1719869>to thailand.No, you just stay in Poland. Harder to find this wayOther than that, you're correct
>>1706091we're so close. i'm more hype for this than any game for years.
All it has to be is a good town builder. If the combat element is fun enough to engage with so it provides an extra layer of why you build a town, and not some anno afterthought, it will be a good game.
But does it work on Win7?
>>1724207No.Which is a weird thing for a game done by a Pole
Streamers are allowed to stream the game since today, whats the verdict so far?
>>1727324Looking good so far Building mechanic is similar to banished and the likeThe smallest worker unit is a household, meaning both wife, husband and their kids will do the same job given to their familyyou have to upgrade peasant households to artisans so they could produce higher tier goods instead of having more types of production buildings The family with abundant goods (usually the thing they produce) will need to sell their shit in a market Not sure about money or tradingMilitary looking good so far, three types of unit, levies (have to arm them), mercenaries (pay with money), retinue (higher tier so i haven seen any in action) Control is like total war There are activities on the map like bandit camp, other armies moving, town to invade etcThe graphic is as beautiful as usual
>>1727352>tfw you zoom in and see flock of birds flying afarholy kino
>>1727352whats the limit, how many soldiers can you recruit from a fully upgraded village?
>>1727324I hate this shit so much. I understand why it's a thing but I've already seen tons of videos pop up on YouTube with shit like 'how to survive first winter' and other shit. Why would people watch this and spoil themselves the fun of exploring a new game?Fucking content creators should wait their turn like everyone else.
>>1727550Because their shitters.
>>1727542https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5yvYR1jUCokhere is a big battle will all 3 unit tiers, obviously not as big as total war but there are a few hundreds on each side
>>1727324Solid start, everything looks good, combat looks better than expected from previous videos. Only issues so far seems to be early access looks extremely limited so it may be a good while before the game gets good replayability depending on how quickly they add new maps or get AI settlement building working.
>>1727601i hope the dev eventually makes a total war like when he is done with manor lords. he would instantly become a billionaire, especially with the reputation he would have if he handles manor lords well.
>>1727601Kino
>>1727324Streamers are subhumans and they all should be executed.
Seems like a sudden release schedule date, a bit worrying if its not early access.Been trying to watch streamers playing to see the advance stuff , but they seem to just get to the part I've done playing the demo last time before I get tired of watching. >>1727601 this looks cool though.
>check streams >its mostly germanslol
What if this game sucks bros?
Im sick of the banished clonesand all ive seen from this one is that is has higher marketing budget than the rest
>>1727971You must be blind again then
>>1727941We played it. It's already good.Only thing that remains to be seen is whether it'll be a game i can play tor 40 hours or 300 hours.
>>1727974where are you from sirhow much are you paid to do SMM for them?
TOTAL STREAMER DEAD
>>1724127Village building seemed fine. The trading is awful. The combat felt basic. The economy is basic overall with little info. It's gonna depend on what kind of updates they do to the game. I'll prolly pirate it once it's six or twelve months in to check on it.
>>1727601>ai just sends archers without any infantry support close by >could have just charged his archers with his infantry >instead sets up the battle like a 12 year old desperately trying to make the game look appealing. Lmao i knew all these "streamers" are just shilling like the little whores they are.
>>1728062Anon... that's not them being shills, see>>1727933. That's them being autist which are hyper focussed on playing with their little toy soldiers.Fucker probably didn't even notice that the AI fucked up.
>>1706681A goalpost just flew over my village
Kek, streamers are already talking shit about it. I guess it was a smart move to give them the game TWO WEEKS before everyone else gets it.
>>1728172shit like what?
>>1728172desu just the fact that its not unity slop and shit runs well at high pop means that its better than 90% games like this, it would be impossible to make this on unity >>1727601Retards forget that unreal engine 4 got 12 year of constant full support, so for games like this is completely shits on unreal engine 5 or unity just like end of cycle windows 7 was the best OS, i fucking dread the day these retards force me to go away from end of cycle w10 because its looking grim in the same way unreal engine 4 to 5 transition is completely shit and every game recently require frame gen and high end pcs even when they look like shit.
I'm going to pirate it on release without watching any streamer/youtuber before and then decide whether it's worth buying.
>>1728172Do you have examples or just dreams and visions?
>>1727978are we allowed to talk about video games on a board dedicated for video games?
>>1728369based
>>1728006tryhard post
>>1728369No anon, you have to let some sperg on 4chan convince you to never play the game but hate it anyway
>>1728471only if the interest in them seems naturalif its the same shit as before in 100 other games then its marketing
>shazamtroon kvetching reaches as far as /vst/I hate brownoids having internet access
>>1728172I've checked youtube and everyone is chocking on its cock, what are you talking about?
>>1728970damn cozy
>>1729169Honestly any city builder set in germany, switzerland, or austria would be ludo.
watched a german streamer for 2 days. Game looks really good although i do feel that it may get boring 10 hours in.
>>1728970>tfw we will never go back
will it have gunpowder units in it?
>>1729329I don't think so. The devs have said they're planning to add more unit types later on, like cavalry, but afaik they haven't mentioned anything about gunpowder.
>>1729333dang.
>>1728960It's one of the most unique games to be released in years tho. Maybe learn something about it before being a faglord
>>1729380good evening sir
>>1729329the time when the normies will learn that the middle ages had guns has not yet come
>>1729333Wait, does the base game have no cavalry?
>>1729435It's early access release
I want this to be as good as it can be, to shit upon the faces of AAA developers everywhere, to show what talent and drive and a vision can actually accomplish vs millions of marketing bucks.
>>1729494Based take (because it's also mine)
>>1728960>>1729421game looks comfy, kill yourself retard
>>1729663game looks like a more shallow clone of ostriv but since your favorite eceleb got paid to play it it must be the best
>>1728970look at how the properties shapes appear to align with the curves of the roads. this shits on square 'tists
>>1729676>you can only like one game and must defend its honour with your life while shittalking other games in the same genreYour brain on trooncord
>>1729676>ostrivliterally never heard of this until now>18th century ukrainian town>only a management game, no diplomacy, no adversities>"released" in 2020, still in early accessyeah imma skip out on your game broski, try again
it looks so pretty
>>1706091>"Early access" that you can't buy>Nobody can prove they've played this>Only shills make videos about it, using the same clips over and over>"Review embargo">Somehow most wishlisted game on SteamThis game does not exist. It's another dumbass scam like that zombie game. You'd think people would learn, but goysloppers are drawn to goyslop as soon as that Unreal Engine logo appears.
>>1706091i went to check this out but it's not even out yet! looks cool but i'll be holding off buying probably for quite some time past the EA release to see how it shapes up.
>>1729329I vaguely remember the dev saying he's going to add handcannons and cannons latter down the line, but they won't be there on release
>>1729794Retard
>>1729494The problem is this won't teach AAA devs anything, as they know they put out sloppy work but they're slaves to executives and shareholders who only want line to go up.
>>1729818cool, i'll have to check back in a couple years if it gets out of EA.
>>1729897>hundreds of articles on how helldivers stuck it to big AAA publushers.>ubisoft casually dropping star wars outlaws $100 preorderHelldivers did nothing so manorlords certainly won't. The only thing that will stop the trash heaps like ubi and ea is total collapse and the AAA market is too full of sloppers to allow that to happen.
>>1729794>"E>N>O>"R>St. phoneposting shazamcord subhuman
>>1729945Ubisoft is a bad example, it's literally a dying company. It may not last the next few years, which is too bad because I want to play more Anno. Rest of the company deserves it. Maybe Anno will find a new home.
>>1729973People have been saying that for over ten years now, mate.
>>1729720marketing is the most important part of the game budget
I played it and the city building is not as good as I thought it would be. As someone else said, it's a worse version of Ostriv. The battles are fine though. Way too overhyped.
>>1729958Nice argument, shill. Why are slavs such pajeet-tier scammers when it comes to video games? The day before was also a slavshit scam game.
>>1730233whys every1 a shill in your book? what are we allowed to play? name 5 games
>>1730284
>>1729494>vs millions of marketing bucks.I wonder how much it has cost to send the game to ever influencers with over 10 viewers.
>>1730291>6 games total in 3 months>one of them is the out of flavor normie FOTMshazamtrannies confirmed for not playing videogames lol
>Takes 7 years to make>Still releasing as early accessGregg is swindling you all.
>>1730318take your meds
>>1730198Factorio had like 0 marketing until it was already well established and got around by word of mouth, this Ostriv game obviously ain't all that interesting to be shared around while Manorlord is something many people have wanted for yearsYou got totalwarfags, stongholdfags, banishedfags all waiting and hoping this shit is good
>>1730291Paradoxdrones' opinion on anything is invalid by default
>>1730284>What are we allowed to playNot Manor Lords because it doesn't exist. I wish it did, but it doesn't. If you're not a shill you'll see the overwhelming evidence and agree. There isn't an iota of proof of this game existing beyond dev-released game footage and bullshots.
>>1729973retards have been saying it hoping it was true while the market was expanding, now the market is reaching capacity and economical issues in the outside world are worseningWage stagnation, money inflation, prices inflation (some due to the former, some due to greediness)Most people play shit that is over 6 years old, how often have you heard lately of triple As bombing to shit, and the tech layoffs? The industry is contracting and if some of these companies keep doing what they're doing they're gonna either have to further cannibalize themselves, change course or die the first option is most likely
>>1730351meant for>>1729975
>>1730349Jesus Christ, what level of contrarian brainrot do you have to be to spout such an inane sequence of sentences
>>1730347all good games, cope
>>1730357The subhuman shill has no argument yet again. Nobody has played this "game" other than assorted shill influencers who claim it's the second coming of Christ. Supposed millions of wishlists for an extremely niche genre? Sure, since wishlisting is free and slavs can just bot that shit.It's nearing release and there has been no access to this game even though it's labelled as currently being in Early Access. This is exactly the same shit as The Day Before, probably the same slavtards just rebranded. Enjoy getting scammed again, Unreal Engine goyslopper.

>>1730385What does this prove exactly? Steam thought The Day Before existed before it was revealed as a scam, correct?
>>1730351ubisoft is working on like 6 mega valuable IPs, they dont care about whats going on in the industry, people will buy their products because they're desirable, layoffs or whatever inconsequential industry shifts don't really matter until they stop making valuable products

>>1730363awww he didn't get invited to play manor lords. sadge!
>>1706091I got hyped when I heard that it's releasing soon, then I found out it's EA.meh
>>1730390The day before did exist though. The scam part was it was a simple extraction shooter with barely functional mechanics rather than some huge open world mmo. There was a big hubub over steam allowing refunds if you played it more than 2 hours. Not something they'd do for a game that didn't exist in the first place.
>>1730390are you so desperate for this game to fail that youre alluding that its similar in scam levels to the Day Before? get a grip and get off the internet.
>>1730363kek, based pole dev broke this buck
Looks nice, watched some jewtube vids with gameplay. Would maby buy in couple of months/years.
It's Stronghold but without the castles.
>>1729720Ostriv is actually good. Biggest complaint is that the maps are just flat and featureless.
>>1730363
I've been looking forward to this game for a while.I just want Stronghold but with diplomacy and a presistent map. That's all. I don't care if the combat is garbage, the combat in stronghold is certainly worse. I just hope they add horses and fortifications.
>>1706361>demo>buyretard
>the Devs are already trying to curb expectationsLuhmayo, literally The Day Before.
How much will it be?
>>1731246bout three fiddy I reckon
>>1731246$70
>>1731245Sorry but you can watch one of the hundreds of videos out already and see exactly what's in the game right now. If you can't manage your own expectations based on easily viewable evidence you deserve what you get.
>>1731543Don't care, Ivan, not getting scammed by your nonexistent game. The fact that you had to redefine what the game is so close to release speaks of how barebones it's going to be.
>>1731562>early access game is bare bonesWOW
>nonexistent game What did he mean by this?
>>1731635Never existed.
>>1731654So you're just a schizo, got it
>>1731654like your cognitive skills WOAAAAAAH NIGGA
I just want a new Lords of the Realm (II). I hope this fills that void
>>1706091Ok serious question i watched some gameplay is this basically just medieval tropico with light rts combat elements?Not even saying that’s bad but that’s basically the crux of it right?
>>1706091How did only one guy do all of this!? Is it all AI
>>1731714more like banished or foundation
>>1731723did ppl in banished age?
>>1706091It's not an RTS it's a city builder.
>>1731755it's not an city builder it's a RTS
>>1731732Yea it was a huge problem actually when you could die off just by not building enough houses for the young to start a family until they become too old and then its too late.
why both songs of syx and this game decided to add total war gameplay in to city building at the same time
>>1731773sounds realistic lol
>>1731773The problem is death waves, if too many people get old at the same time you suddenly have a massive crisis when they all die at once and your economy collapses due to lack of labour. The solution is just not building houses in chunks, you need to build them gradually, 1 or 2 a year so you have steady growth.

>>1706196once manor lords win GOTY, then we would get tons of lordslike from EA, Ubisoft, From Software, etc.
>>1731898Dude, I am not buying your game with cherry picked "reviews"
>>1731562>redefineWhat are you talking about the creator never said it a RTS or grand strategy game. You can find find fourm posts from 2014, it was always a medieval village builder simulator
>>1728970This is a fake screenshot. Marketplace effective radius is microscopic and there's only 1 marketplace in the screenshot.Also why doesnt he just have roads that form naturally over time as pops trod paths? Ostriv had that in its kikestarter early access like years and years ago and that 1 hohol churns out semi-regular updates in between dodging the draft and getting kalibrated.Ostriv also had nicer construction animations and showed you family trees of all your netizens.This is just another hooded horse scam, but not as big of a scam as espiocracy.
>>1731919don't buy it then.
>>1731984>Ostriv had thatAnd it sucks.

>>1706091Looks generic as fuck. There must be a lot of money in the marketing though because every shill on the internet seems to be talking about it. No non-shills though so it can't be very good.

imagine consuming banished clones for 10 years and still applauding yet another one
>>1732333banished clones live rent free in you are head
Banished was the worst thing to happen only because it seems to be the first game ever. Retards everywhere can only compare other games to it.
Watching some of these streamers play is just painful.>start of the game>first thing he does before even erecting his first building is preemptively lay out all of his roads in a neat grid pattern
if you refer to settlers no zoomer will understand what you mean and it doesnt make sense anyway. Companies copy whats popular that has always been the case.
>>1732437Boss Baby syndrome.
>>1732454Settlers wasn't even the first.Part of what made for banished's perceived difficulty curve was it flipped two established mainstays of colony building games.Rather than big initial growth to get more workers you wanted slow but consistent growth. And farming early was a trap. Settlers was even a different type of colony game.

>>1706097>manor lords is a sim with rts aspects.That's the best kind. There's nothing I want more than to see my skilled artisans and essential labor force get massacred on a muddy field.
>>1733056what's up with the reddit spacing my man?
I like how organic the villages look in this game. That's my biggest pet peave in a city builder, when they the cities don't look realistic or nice. I think that's my biggest problem with Anno. It looks pretty, but the cities dont look very organic.
good morning sars please don't play the game and buy new Total War Game instead. Thank you very muchi sars
>>1733527Yeah I've been playing Farthest Frontier recently and while I generally like the game (outside of some annoying balance issues), the way you're forced to build everything on a grid does make everything look worse.
>>1733339I'll defer to your extensive experience on reddit for that one.
>>1732000What a waste of good digits. Ostriv is comfy and evolving your town from shitty vatnigger village to a proper town is satisfying. Village houses automatically have their own gardens and its one of the only ways for you to get a number of vegetables, honey, etc. It would be better if they would trade them themselves rather than you having to buy it first then to sell it back to your citizens. Ostriv also has livestock automatically using fallow fields, and has hay as its own production chain and a vital resource. Does your shitty scamor lords have it? No.The best thing manor lords has going for it is the scale. In theory i think you can make proper medieval cities/towns instead of shitty little villages but that is yet to be seen. I bet you this dev has built a hard cap of citizens as otherwise the engine would shit itself. I also doubt it will have proper enough stratification between peasants and burghers. You'll have farm workers living in your town apartments just wait and see.
>your livestock don't breedDay 1 dropped
>>1733639It gets better anon>your citizens don't breed or age eitherThis is a tranny simulator. The dev can screech about how this is a city builder first and foremost until the cows come home, and the cop out that it is "gameplay first, reality second" might as well be taken to its logical conclusion of press X to win. Sheep *only* produce wool, chickens *only* produce eggs, theres no animal fodder so your livestock won't starve, nor will they breed. The *only* way to get livestock is to trade. Your citizens don't breed or age so the *only* way to grow your colo- i mean, CITY is through migration. Apparently this alternate medieval europe has the same fertility policy of modern europe, in that nobody breeds and you just import people. This polack dev has just made a screenshot simulator he'll charge you £50 for.Hooded Hoax at it again with another banger!!I'll be going back to ostriv thanks.
>>1733645Ok cya
>>1733647You'll get some great screenshots to post on your favourite subreddit and discord for about 2 weeks and you'll be poorer for it.
does he seriously spend his whole day posting the same shit over and over on fucking /vst/ of all boards?
>>1733651Oh no.
>>1733653Yes. The question is how far back it goes since people have been making shit up about the game being a farm to collect government incentives for years.
>discord trannies raiding /vst/ to frantically cover up the failure that scammer lords isSorry but /vst/ is for critical thinkers not discord groomer fanboys
Cant believe this schizo still shows up to shitpost. Every one knows this is GOTY total war killer
>>1731984>Also why doesnt he just have roads that form naturally over time as pops trod paths?While this is neat it also can look very retarded
>>1733696This.It's kind of ok in foundation because you can deny areas to get decent looking roads, but without that you have to go super autism to get a non spaghetti road network.
I had my suspicions before but at this point I'm certain the trooncord shitposter here is the same as the pajeet from /ddg/.Every post is a 1:1 copy, same tactics, same posting pattern. The only thing he hasn't done is go full indian nationalist but that's just because nobody has outed him for being indian yet.
>>1733757If it's the same guy then he'll inevitably admit to it in a post-release meltdown, otherwise I just think it's just someone from the same discord server or w/e
>>1733780Yeah that one samefag from discord that shows up to defend this tripe might just kill himself after "release" (early access).I can't wait for when the dev runs away after collecting his złoty post release and abandons this screenshot simulator
>>1732453post 3
>>1733639the game is full of eastern europeans, the females animals just don't get a chance.
Going by my YouTube homepage did they just hand out a preview copy to every strategy or city building streamer with more than 10 viewers?
Why does every board always have some faggot that only exists just to shit it up?
>>1733645wait is this true lol
>>1734162Yep, go onto the discord or the steam forums. There are specific threads on the steam forums about how limited animal husbandry is (apparently its to "balance" livestock) and theres another thread about citizens aging. Apparently your peasants dont age and have families because this isnt crusader kings. Children just dont apparently exist in the middle ages and every "family" was 3 people.The cope is real, even shitty skylines 2 which is an unmitigated abortion models natural population growth
>>1734333Oh theres also no rivers or lakes on any maps, apparently they arent relevant and werent a major factor in middle ages town planning.The more youtube streams gou watch and the more you read the shallower this screenshot simulator becomes
how are people excited about this? after 20 minutes of splattercat i can already tell this is a shallow as fuck lords of the realm roguelite with MAYBE 10 hours of content. simulation city builder, lol, lmao even
>>1731562Take your meds
Schizo-kun, what does screenshot simulator even mean? And I thought it didn't exist, yet now you're saying it has 10 hours worth of content. I see we are already entering the backpedaling phase.
>>1734161Probably some Anno, Banished or Farthest Frontier dev mad that their grid based shit games will be btfo forever by 1 single dude
good evening sars. Please do not play this banchood scam basterd game. This scam is very bad according to my boss review. I am going to work for my wife's Saree and Red Sindhi. Thank you very much sars
>>1734420Thank you sir for informing me of this scam, I almost preordered but then I read this post and it made me see how the game is a fraud with CGI prerecorded footage being shown on the Youtube. Kind regards.
I get the sense that the schizo simply doesn't comprehend early access. If you don't want to buy early access games that's fine, in fact that's what I would suggest anyway unless for some reason you really want to play a game before it's finished. But looking at an early access game and claiming that it's the worst thing ever because it's missing features is just a clear sign of mental retardation.
>>1733664>THE paraslop and campaign puzzle board is for critical thinkersdelusional
>>1734581I would personally tell people to pirate just because of it being EA and the dev time it had. Still wouldn't sperg out about people just trying to discuss the game. I'm starting to believe that Shazam posters just want to maintain the status quo in the industry seeing as how all the games they lash out at are ones that can potentially cause a shakeup, regardless of whether or not it will.
I can't go on youtube without seeing 50 recommendations of Manor Lords and I can't wait to play it but I don't want to watch anything and these faggots want to spoil the entire game ffs
>>1734581It is a fundamentally empty gane with superficial mechanics. Early access wont change that when the dev has said that this is all by design. This is gonna be another flawless win for shazzamlads
>>1735281I assume you have as much proof for this as for the "fact" that all streamers playing the game are paid shills who are showing prerendered footage?
Oceania had always been at war with Eurasia

>>1735525kek imagine an indie medieval banished clone from a literally who dev somehow managed to buckbreak this poor schizo nigga
>>1735652>spends that much moneyGiving keys to random e-celebs costs nothing.
>>1735674yea pretty sure legendoftotalwar said they didnt pay him, they just shipped keys to random streamers and since game is wish listed so much many streamed it cause its a good occasion to gain new viewers.
>>1735674>>1735678>he doesn't know larger streamers charge devs to play their gamelol, lmao even. yeah man sacriel and other 8k+ viewer streamers are just playing manor lords out of the goodness of their hearts and genuine interest. kek.
>>1735652>going to twitch in the first placetranny
>some random faggot crying this hard about Manor LordsJesus this place is worse than /v/..
>>1735690They're playing it to cash in on the hype.
>>1734334It's over.
>>1735281Just go onto the steam forums or the discord or read the dev comments about how:- there are no bodies of water nor rivers - peasants dont age, breed etc- only way population grows is immigration- livestock don't breed- livestock only produce 1 resource Apparently its because this isnt ck, and realism is sacrificed for gameplay but this is still being marketed as "ultra-realistic"The expression breadth of an ocean depth of a puddle isnt adequate since its gameplay isnt that broad beyond the tacked on military system. Its just another Hoax Horse shovelware made by some polack
>>1735830Meant for>>1735286>>1735652>>1735674>>1735678>>1735690>>1735812Reminder that it is still review embargoed until after release so all these streamers who havent dropped it yet are just paid shills. Will be interesting to see what actual reviews are post release. Looking forward to seeing that "mostly negative"
>like 80% of posts by one guy seething about the gameMost mentally ill thread i've seen in a while.
Stop feeding the baiter. He loves it.
>>1735856I think this is legit how schizophrenia works
>>1735830>peasants dont age, breed etc>- only way population grows is magic>- livestock don't breed>- livestock only produce 1 resourceSounds like Anno lmao
I like ostriv so will likely pirate manor lords to try. It might be kinda shallow who knows. I really liked that flotsam game where you build on water. It's very simplistic but was comfy. I tried bulwark which is cool as a concept but it gets busy AF plus it feels dumbed down a lot. Farthest frontier is cool but again the whole area of influence I think holds it back.
>>1735830>- there are no bodies of water nor rivers>- peasants dont age, breed etc>- only way population grows is immigration>- livestock don't breed>- livestock only produce 1 resourceOuch
>>1736238To be honest shit with ages don't look so bad. We should have new generation per ~15 years, and game probably will ended before we reach this time.With livestock yes, it's just bad.
>>1736238there are rivers tho, crossing it gives you a debuff
I don't think this game is supposed to be a 'banished clone'. It's more a classic builder with rts elements, feels more like Stronghold with more focus on economy and settlements. There's not really a survival aspect like Banished has, like survival isn't meant to be a thing or a challenge.
Ostriv seems to be better still
The demoralization campaign (and lack of complete steam page) is effecting me bros...
>>1735830Thank you for sharing. Will probs hold off on buying in this case.
>>1736394This.The survival aspect comes from external threats rather than internal. I don't get the livestock complaints either as fully simulated livestock wasn't something I was expecting in the first place. Seems like a shazamtroon demoralization schizo op
>>1736740>external threats rather than internalive died to starvation 2 times in the 0.5 demo (thats on rutracker btw) before figuring out the basics, and then the game crashed with no save
>>1736001Anno with ground combat sounds rad but this game sounds a lot worse than that
>>1736785it had ground combat in 1404 although it was horrible, but at least you couldnt loose the whole island just by losing the port
>>1736291Then why cant you build bridges?
>>1736289Cope. By not having citizens age, make families and otherwise have their own "lives" theyre basically just abstractions that are shown on the map purely for your screenshots
>>1736989Retarded post.
>>1736701If you want to play a game that is similar by nature and actually has realistic citizen lives, livestock, and actually complex production chains, then go and play Ostriv. It'll also be cheaper than scammor lords.Cautions1. EA & dev lives in ukraine so he might get drafted one day and donked by an FPV2. Some resources still havent had complete chains3. No war system4. Not as graphically pleasing for your screenshots Mechanically, it is far better.
>>1736990Dev post
>>1736991>Ostriv is incredibly unfinished, and will never BE finished.
>>1736993And yet its more feature complete now and at launch than scammor lords ever will be.... curious!
>>1736998Not the case at all>le cows only produce 1 resourceYou can't even explain why this is bad as opposed to just being a design choice. Everything you're saying is like this because you're not smart enough to think through something like that.>I-it's bad because roads don't form automaticallywhyIt's like >songs of syx is bad because you can't connect canals to riversIt's the /v/ style of argumentation where you take one random complaint, don't make an argument for why it's bad, and then act like the entire game is now garbage because of whatever random nitpicks you grabbed onto.
The Ostriv dev must be really desperate for sales if he comes in here to sperg out about a different game day in day out just to shill his own game.
>>1737011give 10 trillion dollars now
>>1736989In most of games citizens is not more than abstraction, so what your point?>CopeWhy you so retarded?
>>1736991>dev lives in ukraineI heard he's from puccia.
>>1736993>it's not finishedIt's arbitrary, it already has a lot of stuff as it is now
>>1737095>has a lot of stuffWere we playing different games? ML is a lackluster of a game.
so shizo is actually Ostriv shill/dev and Ukrainian, lmao
>>1737098Source?
>>1737095Not really. Maps look like a default flat plane.
>>1706097isn't Banished just Anno?
Schizos are just mad they won't become millionaires two days from now because they weren't skilled enough to make a good game lmao
>>1706196theyre just banished clones retard
>>1737097I was talking about Ostriv>>1737105I agree, they need to improve it.
>>1736991>Ostriv has been a community-driven project since its first playable alpha back in 2017No thanks lol

>>1737683No one ever called it hardcore though
>>1737686no it was marketed as a hardcore total war banished killer but in reality it's a CGI fake screenshot simulator with fraudulent gameplay peddled by content creators who are all being paid. I'm totally sane btw. Buy ostriv

stop giving you's to the schizo, that inbred mongoloid already moved goal posts and stopped saying the game doesnt exist, hope he finally ropes tomorrow when it releases.
>>1737706>but in reality it's a CGI fake screenshot simulator with fraudulent gameplay
tomorrow
is this game made by a russian or something? dunno why this faggot keeps shilling ostriv so hard in this thread otherwise
>>1738775false flagging zigger
>>1738793cope
>>1738184you're optimisticHe'll make vague allusions to how he was right because an early access game is bare bones and shift to shitposting some other game.
>>1736998Even the manor lords demo last year had more content than ostriv
>>1738793dont forget your insulin shot today, meme warrior
How much will it be for real? If this guy is smart it'll be $15-25 bucks and have a discount so he gets the publicity. If it's $40+ he can fuck off and I will pirate it and shill against it and call it abandoned.
>>1738978Xenonauts2 and Terra Invicta cost 40$, so i think there's will be the same.
>>1738978this, but I think it will be $20-30 w/ a launch discount based on the other games from the publisher when similar games launched into early access>>1738985if it's $40 then they fucked up, I doubt this game is anywhere near in-depth as either of those titles
>>1739100>anywhere near in-depth as either of those titlesI mean arguably those weren't very deep either. Pretty shit too desu.
>>1739159>relaxed experience.Oh no. Does this game even have a failure state?
>>1739166hehe, no
>>1739166i dieded in the demo in the first winter
>>1739197lmao what a shitter
>>1739159>dev waited till the week before his game launched to walk back all the hype he nurtured just to save some face when his screenshot simulator flops>wont even confirm his price before launch
>>1739202Retards get too overhyped over a early access city builder and then blame the dev
>>1739209>dev spent years and years pumping up his "battle system" as the main core of the game and showcased large scale battles and formations, milked all the hype, then at the last minute says his "game" is just a tech demo screenshot simulator
>>1739197there was no demo because there's no game, gaslighting shill.
>>1739209You can't really expect double digit IQ glue sniffers to form their own opinions and expectations.
>>1739220Sorry but its april 27th where i am and still no "game"
>>1739212Exactly and everyone is saying "people that thought it was gonna be total war are retarded" Despite it showing more combat than total trailers lmao no wonder nobdody knows what the game is days before launch after decade of development
>>1739212>>1739242>Having a full on conversation with yourselfYou know this is not even a strong narrative? I know exactly what the game is. It's always been clear.Don't care if some random redditor doesn't know.
>>1739273lmao ML fanboys on suicide watch. >having a full conversation with yourself You mean responding to a post someone else made on a forum? lmao. grasping at straws now are we? >hes the only one with that opinion, he has to be! kys
>>1739273>You know this is not even a strong narrative?Actually if you open steam's page, the first video is about battle, burned village etc.Also we can see on rest of video and pics cavalry, combat equipment, marching units.And now look on Anno1404 steam's page. No single image with army.Then look on TW Attila page where we can see also combat, units and burned buildings, and say that Manor Lords steam page look more like Anno than Attila.
>>1738985>Terra Invictayeah and I pirated it and never played that shit afterwards and the game has 0 audience
>>1706091>it never claimed to be total war or rts Huh thats odd.
As someone who has followed the game from the very beginning I can say and know that the majority of the stuff shown was from the building aspect and only some work in progress stuff for battles. The trailer with the release date was the first one to fully show battles in a serious way. Game has always been a medieval town builder with elements of total war combat.
>>1738978lmfao join the warband its going to be 39-49.99 and no discount and the dev confirmed it will be cheaper in "poorer" countries.
>>1739296>As someone who has followed the game from the very beginningas if that means anything nigger stfu. If you've been following the game for this long and havent come to the conclusion its a scam im sorry there is no fixing that kind of retardation.
>>1739300Cope and seethe, I can't wait to see you have a meltdown in 2 hours while I enjoy making my comfy village
>>17393021 hour 20 minutesthe game is way overhyped tho and will disappoint a lot of people
>>1739302stfu retard 12 year old idgaf I'm here to see this scam burn and everyone paying for this cgi screenshot simulator to rope
>>1739303If they got fooled by total war YouTubers and redditors then that's their own fault. This isn't a Shawn Murry situation where the developer overhyped and underdelivered. Only thing I'd say that isn't in the game is late stage medieval cities and a proper castle building system
>>1739287>total war is the only game with large scale tactical battles
>>1739166Having all your pops starve or killed by bandits is a failure state, but you have to really fuck up to accomplish that.
>>1739287It does have large scale tactical battles.
>>1739304Lmao this little nigger is gonna cry.
>>1739304>hello? Yeah based department? I would like to file a report
>>1739305>giving keys to the game months before EA launch to big name youtubers allowing them to basically run hog wild on what they "think" the game is textbook overhype via proxy
>>1739305>Only thing I'd say that isn't in the game is late stage medieval cities and a proper castle building systemProper walled cities and castles have at least been confirmed to be a future goal, even if they're not part of the EA release.

>>1739380yea it's a city builder with combat.
>>1739391i'm not saying it's good as I haven't tried it. It looks barebones though compared to fabledom ostriv farthest frontier etc. flotsam is another game I played for a bit and was entertained some. i never really got into banished when that was a thing. i did try new cycle and some other post apoc city survival builder like it and found them kind of bland.
>>1739382>source: my bleeding rectum
>>1739386It literally has less realism in those departments (among many others) than many predecessor games, but boy howdy are u gonna get some pretty screenshots
>>1739391dlc
>>1739381Battles are what mark it out the most. Other than that it seems like a very solid city builder with good mechanics and visuals, very nice freeform building with no grids.

>>1739466I just spent $210 on a car battery yesterday leave me alone. And am going on at trip this weekend, bunch a bunch of vinyl last week. I don't mind supporting my hobbies, I just need them to be worth it.
>>1739468The game had 2million wishlists! If it was $10 I imagine he'd get more sales and marketing for free. (maybe make it 20 and 15 on sale as an entry offer). These people are too greedy, nobody's going to buy a no-name game for $40. But $15 is nothing.
>>1739471You haven’t actually installed and played the game yet. It’s a cgi scam. None of the features work it just alternates between nice looking jpgs of medieval villages
>>1739476A lot of people are buying this game. Cope thirdy.
Scammor lords won’t let me buy/install. Looks like schizo wasn’t so schizo after all
Does the game really come with a trojan? Why does Steam allow it?
>>1739476i think 40$ might be too much but current sale price would be fine for final product, not that it matters i never buy EA
Theres a crypto miner in the install files>theres a crypto miner in the install files
>>173948640 regular price seems a bit high imo
Is anyone else getting errors while trying to purchase this game on Steam?>>1739493prove it
>>1739493>>1739485I see the depths of your desperation has no limits schizoanon
>>1739497Yea the page got stuck but then i got an email saying it went through
>>1739502Mine finally went through as well. Downloading as we speak.
My steam is stella fucked up, I can't even log in the webbrowser, gives me a error lol. Literally Bannerlords moment.
>>1739512Too many people buying :)
>Game is even more polished than the demo was
How can this be happening schizobros
>>1739522>Polish developer>Gets polishedIndeed
>>1739512just keep trying. you'll probably get through eventually. i was getting errors for like the first 20 times i tried to purchase.
>>1739526I got it.
>>1739526>gets charged for all 8 times he attempts to buy this scamwareLiteral scammer lords moment
There is some next level schizo posting going on for this gameVery weird
>>1739530I'm already curious how much scam posting we'll get when Espiocracy releases. I wonder if it will exceed Manor Lords.
It's kino
>>1739555>using a script to shill your pathetic game that will be completely forgotten in a few weeks The absolute state
>>1739572bro did the dev fuck your gf or something
The combat actually feels great
>Sheep can actually reproducewhat else did the shitposter lie about?
>>1739581everything
>"you can't breed animals, only buy them!">breeding sheep is literally the first thing you unlock on the farming path
So where's the cracked version.
>>1739586It'll probably be up before the end of the day.
>>1739586why would you need crack, game released on gog
>>1739588nvm they released on gog hahahhahaha
>>1739528Nah that almost happened to me, but Steam literally blocks you from progressing when that happens by telling you that you can't start a new transaction before the previous one is resolved.
>>1739590yeah sorry I hadn't realized
Do I need to assign people to storage buildings for them to actually be used? I build a granary and a storehouse but these lazy niggers just leave all my resources lying on the ground to rot away.
>>1739599Yes
who said that animals dont reproduceturns out they do
well this is going well
>>1739609Don't worry, the rain will put it out for sure!
>>1739609Nothing wrong with a cozy fire on a rainy ray.
I need a Canadian to help me explain how to get mass immigration because I built like 15 extra houses and fucking nobody wants to move in.
>>1739618Satisfy needs and build a church.
>>1739618More oxen = your Indian attraction meter goes up = immigration modifier increases = more cheap labour to build your shoddy burgage plots>t. Canadian minister for immigration
>>1739627sars how i farm dung for attracting indian immigrant
You VILL eat ze berries and nothing else for the next 5 years
What’s everyone’s starting locations look like? Curious as to replayability. I know you can start randomly in any of the 9 regions but does resource locations/amounts on the map change?
>>1739636Hunting seems pretty good early on and it also gives you hides to help with your clothing needs. It probably doesn't scale well past the early game though since regular animal spawns deplete super fast, but if you start in a region with rich wildlife I think hunting might be strictly superior to picking berries.
>>1739637I'm not sure, but at first glance it seems like you always have access to all resource types (at least on default settings), while their exact location and how rich they are is randomized.
>>1739629In Farthest Frontier you can actually store dung and use it as fertilizer for your fields.
>>1739518*too many people getting scammed
>>1739478You do realize nobody is falling for your basic ass bait, Its ironic though because your too retarded to understand that a game engine lisence and pre made assets does not equate to gameplay. You prefer pretty colors I prefer actual core mechanics We are not the same.
>>1739639The Virgin 20 wild animals that you have to wait to replenish every other month vs the chad 400 berries that replenish quicker than you can pick them
>>1739673>Its ironic though because your too retarded to understand that a game engine lisence and pre made assets does not equate to gameplay.>your retarded>engine lisenceHello Saar I’m afraid I’m not doing the needful and buying your scam game just like I didn’t buy days gone
>>1739685Rich animal nodes have 40 animals which replenish fast enough not to be depleted as well. The regular nodes do deplete really fast, but they're still enough for the early game.
Why do you fags care so much if retards get scammed? Is it envy?
Manor lords is just this reskinned
>>1739646There's is dung in the resource tab in manor lords as well, it just doesn't seem to be actually implemented
>>1739685>400 berries that replenish quicker than you can pick themBullshit. I don't know what easymode you're playing on but even rich nodes only have 128 berries by default and they start to disappear as soon as winter set in.
Is there a credible download link out yet? Torrent?
>family requests more market area for their stallWtf does this mean.
So is the game real or not? The reviews look bottled
>>1739712Pretty self-explanatory. You either don't have a place for them to set up a market stall, or it's not big enough. Market stalls are how goods get distributed from the general pool to individual households so without it they're too dumb to feed themselves.
UH, ALL THE BANDITS OR NIGGERS AS I LIKE TO CALL THEM, STOP TELEPORTING FIREWOOD OUT OF MY STORAGE BECAUSE IT'S FOR WORKING FAMILIES ONLY
>>1739585did the sperg/autistic/anti-shill...lie to me?
>>1739717Thank you.
The fuck do tools do?
>>1706091Manorbro's...not like this..
>>1739732>you share a board with these retards
>>1739738So you don't know.
>>1739741I'm pretty sure he knows.
>>1739732In the earlier demo version you needed tools to upgrade buildings, now they don't seem to do anything directly, I think they just passively improve efficiency of workers
>>1739713Obviously not im watching my friend play it and hes literally on his phone the entire time, its the most god awful boring pile of dogshit to ever be hyped in gaming history. Literally no mans sky tier dog shit.
It's fun
>>1739732You need them for smithing.>>1739713Nah it's a fake game. I booted it up and it just shows me a jpeg of a medieval village.It's a pretty village though.
>>1739791>You need them for smithingActually I am retarded and can't read the help menu properly. Smithing is how you make them, but it doesn't require them.
>>1739706My rich berry node has 256 berries on default settings.Seethe more berrycel
I lost all the regions except one. You cant fool around on the normal difficulty it seems, you need to start collecting taxes pretty early
>>1739609fire danger marked as not in the early access
>>1739804Yeah I didn’t realise until a year in that the trading post would be important so I wasn’t able to upgrade my houses or anything and my rival is on 3 tiles, I have zero army and apparently I’m gonna be attacked in 6 months. It might be joever
buy OSTRIV instead
>>1739791OP here just wanted to say your a massive faggot, Im right, and everyone is realizing this game is massive pile of dogshit in realtime. W for Schizos
>>1739816No
>>1739817People don't seem to hate it. High rating on steam and only a few people here are bitching.
>>1739810trading post is only for the local budget, like in pharaoh, mercenaries and some other stuff are bought from your personal wealth that is collected through taxes from the mansion
>>1739822ok vatnik
>>1739817The game is a huge success and all your hours and hours of screeching were completely impotent. Lmao.
>>1739829>game is out for couple hours, already negative reviews complaining about pricing, lack of content, bugs, ect. If only what was in your head translated to reality. COPE.SEETHE.DILATE
>>1739826It’s even more over for me than I thought then because I was planning on spamming exports for 6 months to hire mercs
>>1739825Dude just stop coping and get real. The game is boring as shit, the entire premise is place buildings to generate magic mana "influence" and buy 7 other tiles. Thats it. oh and that will be 39.99 if you live in america, if you live in a shithole its 15 bucks or free on gaymepass.
>>1739834cry harder cucky
>>1739837ripyou can hire about 20 spearmen with the starting gear. And if you have metal you can starting making your own, its in the house upgrades
>>1739837You can beat the first raid with your 20 militia and a retinue, just get some stone and build your manor.
>>1739849>retinuebtw how do you hire more of them?
>>1739851On the customization screen
>>1739710gog-games
>>1706091>made by 1 man You mean pre-made assets on unreal engine?
>>1739710>>1739882in the other thread some anon posted this fwiw
>>1739898>6 Gigs So what exactly does this game do that other games in its genre dont? Why would anyone pay 40$ for 6 gigs of content? Some of my mods are more than that...
>>1739903
>>1739903Feel free to not download it.
>>1739904>>1739911I mean im simply asking a question if you cant answer it then maybe someone else can?
>>1739817>everyone is realizing this game is massive pile of dogshitYeah I can see that lol.
after seeing the poor reviews and outrageous price I've decided to finally pick up Ostriv based on what many anons have said about it in this thread. SLAVA UKRAINI
>>1739943NEver heard of this one, but it looks like Banished, which I played trice and never touched again.But I hope you like it, Anon.
>>1706091played 1 hour of it.its not a RTS like age of empires or total war.its a mix of banished with stronghold, but more focused on survival and city building than combat.70% of the gameplay is building a city surviving the winter, tipical survival city sim stuff, if you expecting the same level of classic RTS i sorry thats not for you
The ai unironically crushed me.His army was huge.
>>1739997>surviving the winter what a joke i was watching my friend play and he had 50 berries and like 20 meat and his people were fine throughout the winter, plus no spoilage so food never goes bad
>>1739929>Half of those reviews are shills or people gifted the product for free No thats unheard of in the gaming industry!!11Manorfags on maximum copium.
maybe the retard is a lucky charm. Let's hope Espiocracy's launch is as good as Manor Lords.
>>1740029bot post. Jesus fucking christ what the hell is going on
>>1740039your life must be so hard.
I guess I can see the appeal in being a schizo shitposter. You can just spout whatever nonsense you imagine with absolute certainty, because literally anything that proves you wrong is automatically a streamer bot shill fake news cgi screenshot made in India and paid for by the developer.
>>1740030Yeah if you have 10 pop you can survive the winter with low food reserves but then you won’t have the manpower to raise an army strong enough to fight off bandits/the AI in the springYou spastic
>>174009720 berries and some meat is enough for 20 ppl to survive the winter? lmfao HISTORICALY ACCURATE! oh wait...i forgot duh...it never explicitly claimed to be historically accurate! Guess anyone who cant dump 500 hours into watching animation loops all day is a real big dummy, huh?
>>1740070I guess i can see the appeal in Manor Lords, You can just shut your brain off, give a pollack 40$ and watch animation cycles and see birds fly across the screen (kino) and anyone who says the game is bad we just attack so we protect our minds from any invasive thought that might shatter this illusion im under.
Genuinely how the fuck do I stand up to this AI? He takes territory so fast and just snowballs completely out of control before you can barely do anything.
>>1740122“20 berries” doesn’t literally represent 20 individual berries you fucking spastic. It takes days to gather “1 berry” because it is clearly a representation of an entire families consumption of berries for a month - hence the fact each family needs 1 unit of food and 1 unit of fuel to survive each month. You total schizo spastic
>>1740137I’m struggling with this too but I’m enjoying the fact it’s not a hand holding walk in the park where you can easily just blob the entire map with little resistance
Played for about 2.5 hours and the game so far, like the demo, is pure soul and comfy as fuck. First winter just started but I gotta go to bed. I hope the dev keeps ignoring the retarded masses and sticks to his vision because this is one of the best games of the past decade.
How about some actual, non-schizo criticism?>the AI gets way too much free shit. Most notably, it gets a significantly powerful free army and enough influence to rapidly claim new provinces, giving you no possible way to oppose them in the early game. Depending on your luck, by the time you're ready to start expanding into new provinces it's entirely possible that you're already cut off by the AI and since you most won't be able to conquer any provinces from them at that point, it's basically a game over.>Farms are either bugged or way underpowered. They produce way too little produce for how much work they require, but you kinda have to rely on them anyway because hunting and gathering doesn't get you far in the long run. For this reason, starting in a region with low fertility is a massive pain in the ass.>If a family loses their home (for example, because of a fire) they seem to become bugged and will stay permanently homeless even if you have empty houses available.The game is fun but it obviously needs a lot of work.
>>1740162Nr.1:Seems intentional to be intentional for that specific scenario. Issue being that it is the default scenario and the map is small enough that the AI can own more than half of the map before you know what's going on as a noob.Nr.2:Is probably intentional too, part of it is certainly the effect of crop rotation and to incentivize specializing your regions to lower the work required. Depending on the starting region you can have some mediocre fertility and need to rely on it earlier if berries and deer can't cut it.Nr.3:Yeah that sounds like an absolute dogshit bug which is close to game breaking.
>>1740162Yep with fertility actually fuck up.I 3 hours tried map with low fertility and this is just shit. Will reroll maps until get rich iron + good fertility.
>>1740205>need to rely on it earlier if berries and deerYou can't do that since you need ADDITIONAL typs or food and clothes. And good luck with spam goats everywhere just for keep leather on markets.
>Squash every bandit camp that pops up to farm up some money and pump up my retinue>Get an early territory claim using the influence>Enemy only has 3 territories>Tries to take another>I bring my retinue, 1 almost full militia (don't have the pop for more) + 2 mercenary companies>He has literally double my troops plus a full 36 man retinuewhat the fuck how are you supposed to do this.
>>1706091this game is so fucking boring. Half the features are missing and the ones that are there are so fucking dumb i might as well be playing Anno and actually have a understandable UI.
>>1706091Manorbros...we got too cocky..
>>1740224>Retards getting filtered.
>>1740226>he thinks this game is complex
>>1740231Too complex for you.
>>1739585>sheep dont mate unless you unlock a technologyWill your peasants losing their virginity be locked behind a tech as well? Is this game actually a simulation of the garden of eden before original sin?
>>1739929>all the paid shills with a giant tag "received for free" post positive reviews>thousands of other reviews posted by bot accounts with an ai-generated phrase and 0.1hrs played>negative reviews already startingIt'll be "mixed" by the end of the weekend and "mostly negative" by next week. Dev will not patch anything nor implement any "planned" features (reminder that he refuses to share a road map) as he's laughing all the way to Polska Bank to collect his złoty to go and buy an audi 400kkm over its service
>>1740284If the sales are from bots who received the game for free, how is the dev going to make bank?
>>1740284>negative reviews already starting>It'll be "mixed" by the end of the weekend and "mostly negative" by next week.It's trending upwards.Better start shopping for a short end of rope.
>You pretty much have to get your archers directly behind people and be shotgunning them in the back to do damage.
>>1740224>too much stuff>not enough stuff>3 hours playtime Kek. “Strategy” gamers got too comfortable with slop that holds your hand and walks you through step by step. Manor lords is the great filter
>>1740313Tell me 1 thing about the game that is strategy. There is no stratetgy, its literally just a mobile game with desktop graphics. You place down buildings for magic mana "influence" points and buy the rest of the 7 or so tiles around your starting pos. thats it...your just grinding for nothing. Thats strategy to you?
>>1740138i would "1 berry" my dick in ur mum LMAO
>>1740323God i hate retarded third worlders like you.
>>1740313>>not enough stuffOver half the things in the game are "wip not included"
>>1740162>AI cheats in a shitty indie tech demoWhat a shock
am i stupid? how do you build in the new regions?
>play slow>another lord ends up claiming all the other lands>even if I manage to get another influence to wage war I just get my shit pushed in by dozens of armiesWell shit.
>>1740382>anotherenough*I'm tired.
>>1740371Thats not in this release itll be in a further update. The dev has not said when that update will be nor has he released a roadmap because thats just not party rockin
>>1740371Don't listen to this retard >>1740419. Go into contruction and go to the same place with the manor - built a settlers camp in the new region you own and you get the same as what you started the game with in the new region. It costs 250 of your own personal wealth.
the game is trash, there's not even a hint as to what to do beyond building a lumberjack camp, houses, and some storage. after that it's like what are you supposed to do? build a hunting camp where there's animals? a foragers camp where there are berries? stone/clay mines? firewood camps? who knows, but it doesn't matter anyways because new people never show up..
unfinished mobile game lmao>citizens don't sleep, eat, take breaks, talk to each other, go to church, they just work at their jobs 24 hours a day>enemy doesn't build anything, just spawns blobs of armies that roam around>can't breed animals>no interface to manage villager jobs or see what's being produced>super easy, then you get killed by the AI with 250 troops>no diplomacy, goals, castlesSo this is the state of gaming in 2024
>>1740508This game is trash but you're a fucking idiot, good thing you'd never be the one in charge of a village
>>1740514One of the first things you unlock is sheep breeding liar
>>1740330The retarded third worlder is whoever developed this game. Comptenency crisis is full fucking swing. Btw you're stupid, that's why you think this passes as a good game.
>>1740212Uninstall and play a better video game on your computer screen
>>1740152>this is one of the best games of the past decade.you won't be playing it by next weekend, lmao.
>refunds denied due to equity concerns, i.e to keep the price at $8.50 in africayou cant make the shit up lmaooo
>>1740525Link?
>>1740516>nature is locked behind a techDo you unlock peasants having time off with a tech? Is aging hidden behind a tech?
>>1740508>the game is trash, there's not even a hint as to what to do beyond building a lumberjack camp, houses, and some storage. That's because there's nothing more to do
>>1740525Yeah i tried to refund my €40 and got a written thing from steam saying that refunding is not available for NA, EU or Australian customers
>>1740544Post it.
>>1740508>the game is trash, there's not even a hint as to what to do beyond building a lumberjack camp, houses, and some storage. after that it's like what are you supposed to do? build a hunting camp where there's animals? a foragers camp where there are berries? stone/clay mines? firewood camps? who knows, but it doesn't matter anyways because new people never show up1. New people show up when there is available housing and you have positive approval2. Lmao you spastic the main economy buildings are artisan workshops which you need to upgrade your housing for and you clearly haven’t even unlocked those yet you spastic mong
>>1740547shill
>>1740508The game is only for people with a 3 digit IQ
>>1740515>>1740553Yikes.... if this is what the Manor Lords community is like, I guess I'll just stick to Ostriv. It's a better game anyways.
>>1740556Fair enough I've been wanting to try out Ostriv but I'm reluctant because it doesn't seem to make any progress
>>1740572The developer lives in a warzone and doesnt have a boomer publisher behind him, and yet his game is deeper and has more sovl than peepeepoopoo lords
Its amazing how much seethe this game generates..
It's like people have never played EA before
oh my science... this game is so immersive and historically accurate bit concerned about the lack of representation for medieval europe's BIPOC though
i wonder if you can keep hiring mercenaries if you can afford to pay them all
>>1740598this.. so much THIS!!!
>buttblasted vatniks trying so hard
game's like ok
>>1706091Scamorlord bro's...I dont feel so good...
>>1740572I tried ostriv before this came out and it does plots similar with gardens all that but more automated. The graphics are more basic however it does update frequently. Works well on 4k UI scaling etc.
>>1740694Thank you for fighting the good fight and sticking it to those evil indie devs! >>1740699The graphics seem a bit bland but what mostly put me off so far is there doesn't seem to be any goal or endgame to it all, and every screenshot looks samey
>>1740706Indie devs? Since when could indie devs gift dozens of big name youtubers presents? Since when did indie devs have 100s of youtubers shill his game? Since when did indie devs ban people for actual discussion? Since when did indie devs EVER behave like this? You got sold its okay, happens to the best of us, just learn you are gullible, Naive and foolish.
>>1740708>devs gift dozens of big name youtubers presentsWhat presents?
>>1740706Yea ostriv looks samey. Goal wise notuch of one but it does seem further along than say manor lords. Farthest frontier lots of updates has alot but again wish it had some ostriv or manor lords in it. I always end up in a grid type with it plus certain styles due to the various buildings have area of influence instead of street or open distance.
>>1740514>>citizens don't sleep, eat, take breaks, talk to each other, go to church, they just work at their jobs 24 hours a dayFalse. >enemy doesn't build anything, just spawns blobs of armies that roam aroundTrue.>can't breed animalsFalse, sheeps have tech.>no interface to manage villager jobs or see what's being producedFalse, you can see in their home.>super easy, then you get killed by the AI with 250 troopsFalse, if you killed by AI you didn't keep tempo.And it's hard to keep tempo on low fertility.>no diplomacy, goals, castlesFalse again - we have goals, diplomacy in wip, manor is sort of castle.Why you do this, anon?
Leaving aside all the things that can be considered lack of content due to early access, e.g. lack of policy and investment options, I have 2 actual grievances with the game. The roads and the "freeform" building plots>roads prefer to go straight>you have to go out of your way to make curved roads>you can only set 4 points for building plots>as a result you almost always end up with stretched rectangles
>>1740853>Aside from all the obvious blatant bs like charging full price for EA, 7 years development, ect my 2 ACTUAL grievances with the game are roadskys shill
>>1740783Who is paying you honestly? There isnt even AI in the game omg your so fucking retarded it hurts to even think something as retarded as you was given a life
>>1740750Like gift bags, medieval helmets, ect Just buttering them up before they review it.
>>1740863You just got that from Volound, known incel and not a great source overall
>>1740862>hurr durrI got you.
>>1740708>>1740863>dev gave youtubers presents to butter them up
>>1740857Seethe, cope and dial8 mate.
>>1740880https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vsRmu8IFrokThey got given stuff like metal helmets.
>>1740853>you can only set 4 points for building plots>as a result you almost always end up with stretched rectanglesPersonally what I do is place roads as a barrier to allow me buildings that aren't rectangles
>>1740886Fair enough.
>>1740853You can only set 4 points but if you don't put points on a vertex/corner it will go around and sort of give you an extra point
>>1740708>be solo dev, the very definition of indie >work on a game for many years and build up interest and a following because the game looks very interesting and soulful>interest grows and turns into hype>get picked up by a publisher to deal with marketing and all the organizational stuff so you can focus on developing >publisher does some marketing stuff>that means you're now a AAA dev and the definition of evilThis shit is getting a bit ridiculous mate, why are you so mad at this game?
why are chuddies itt seething over the game? post your chin before continuing btw
>>1740902>my heckin single deverino !!!11That has been determined to be false. He has a team, He has dozens of the most popular youtubers shilling his game 24/7 (find a negative review I dare you) If he is indie then im fucking santa claus lmao
>>1740906Nobody is seething just pointing out the obvious and shills are desperetly trying to come up with talking points about why the game isnt a massive pile of steaming dog shit. (which i predicted 5-6 years ago) feels good to be right
>>1740891I wasn't lying dude, This game sucks ass and only retarded zoomers who are comatose smoking dab pens actually enjoy it.
I think the game looks pretty and I like the sketch or your village that is draw when you zoom out it's incredibly barebones like how I thought it would be I'll probably mess around for a while more, this game will probably be good with a lot of content, just not right now
>>1740929>I THINK >it LOOKS>PROBABLY be good with alot of content >Just not right now
>>1740950yeah more or less, that's all I can really give you I'll be going back to syx soon
>>1740886>single dev >has money to throw at big youtubers gifting them expensive medieval knight replica helmets Still no walls or castle in the now "purely" city building game. Also that will be 39.99 plus tax (:no roadmap cause fuck you pay me
>>1740960>I'll be going back to syx soonas you should, and rejoice cause 1.0 is coming hopefully before the year is out
ahahahahahahahaHAHAHAHAHAHAHAahahahahaahahahahahahaHere's your saviour of the genre or something.
>>1740965I'm excited
>>1740921Ok, you're right in all points. Now fuck off
>>1740974okay fair enough. Consider /vst/ spared from my wrath...for now...
>>1739817kek actual op here, didn't read thread in a while, was funny to see it's still up. why the fuck are people larping as me i dont even have time to play the game
>Enemy Baron shits out 300 troops and claims all 8 tiles despite not even having a single building on the mapKek what a load of pointless shit
