47:51 that moment you realize that that black bar shows the limit of your healing while in combat. You also go immune when you feed on a V Blood.
🤣🤣 I had no idea!!
@@GwentheShieldmaiden yep, good reason to limit how much you are hit and why leech can be good when combined with shields.
Bellwright npc are stupid...and combat system dont realy exist
Missed it by 3 hours. Better than 3 weeks, I guess.
Oh no! I just finished streaming half an hour ago. Luckily the VOD is there to catch up on :)
Of course, I don't even know if you're still playing Bellwright. 😅
Sequence for liberation: Talk to elder, rebel, lay down foundation for belltower, build belltower.
Thanks for the tip! We figured it out in the following sessions - turns out we did the sequence wrong and built the belltower BEFORE talking to the Elder which messed everything up and locked us out of the town for a while... but we're back on track now after having done some work off-stream and in our next instalment (maybe next week?) we should be able and ready to liberate (FINALLY!!).... it's been a journey 😅
Be Boudica, not Scarlett O'Hara
Awesome video 🙏🏽
rooting for you Gwen!
I love Medieval Dynasty due to the almost complete lack of fighting. <3
Yeah it's a nice chill game for building and exploring without fear of mobs or raids :)
June 30th
Ive been depressed for as long as i can remember, anxiety ridden, heartbroken and cheated on etc. recently found sanctum in Christ. I wont tell you what to believe. But, I am inclined to say that Jesus Is Real. There is unlimited proof on the internet. Either way I’ll be watching for as long as i can.
A real video with a hint of laughs, perfect. You deserve a huge platform
Hahahah nah theres no way you just said the building in bellwright is better😂 i dont even play but ik 1 from 2
Note that I made this video before EA release, based on a few hours of gameplay. If you watch my actual streamed playthrough from after release, you'll see my updated opinion on the building system. The TL;DR is: I like that recruited NPCs help out, because building the stuff manually is even more tedious than in MD.
@@GwentheShieldmaiden fair enough, just the whole thing seemed a lil fishy as if you were idk wanting to be on the devs good side for whatever reason? Not sure but thankyou for proving me wrong. God bless
What an unfair video? Sounds bias.. nearly like a dev bias. Or at least a glazer bias
How is it unfair?
@@GwentheShieldmaiden the constant praise of bellwright, but then not mentioning medevil dynasty’s benefits. And also the devs might abandon the game which i hope they don’t
I tried to focus more on sharing the key differences between the two games for those who don't know Bellwright and want to benchmark it against a more established game, and concluded that which one might prefer is really down to preferred playstyle. MD has less action (as of now and before their next Combat update) and is a lot more chill to play, but also has a more enjoyable settlement building/decoration element to it. I found that in MD once you max out all the tech and progression, it can get a bit stale. But I still really enjoyed it which is why I started playing Sengoku Dynasty next. Bellwright felt like it had a lot going on from the get-go, it feels like it has a lot of content from the start which makes it pretty exciting early game. But I hit a bit of a wall with the progression which made it a bit frustrating (but probably more user's fault tbf). And some parts of the settlement management and UI aren't as intuitive, but the Devs have been continuously improving on those bits since EA release so hopefully that will get better too. And it's still an EA game, so it comes with some bugs and improvements needed ofc. Overall I do think both have their merits, it really depends what you want to get out of your gaming experience, what kind of progression you enjoy, and even your mood imo :)
@@GwentheShieldmaiden Wow all facts.. idk how tf you how articulately explained both sides of the argument in a non bias way, THROUGH TEXT!? But you did. That’s really quite impressive, i went from being more sceptical about your channel to an eager subscriber who is waiting to hear your outlook on future topics!
@@PashaOCEThank you for taking the time to watch, comment and have a constructive discussion, that's really appreciated! :) Hope you enjoy the rest of the videos 😊
😂😂😂
I have played Bellwright over 120 hours. Its a great game. It does need some work and polish here and there, such as, *using fences* to farm and kill bandits is OP and needs tweaking. The leveling of skills takes too long as well. Other than that I have thoroughly enjoyed it. Medieval Dynasty is garbage. With the ability being able to modify how easy the enemies are to kill, the game is super easy, and lacks any challenge. They shouldn't allow you to massively lower enemy health at all. Its like a built-in cheat code. Even if the Dev's drop Bellwright and never develop it again its already more fun and challenging then MD was.
Dang it! Stupid work got in the way. I'll have to watch this when I have some time.
🙏
ON POINT REVIEW! Thank you!! SUbbed!!
I think MD has slowed a lot, they went the path of co op and other platforms over more content being released first, it's their game but they chose to get more money over a better game.
you are not alone. you are enough. and you matter!
Thank you Sarah 🤗
MD was getting boring to me. Adding a few buildings like shops and piers is good but not too exciting. I was hoping to get military buildings to turn peasants into soldiers then attack bandit camps etc. Do bandits attack your village btw as i never experienced it. Can't wait for BW to come to ps5
Yes MD does feel a bit finite once you unlocked all the technologies and stuff. I still enjoy decorating but in co-op it feels a bit limited in end game. Military buildings and bandit raids would be so cool if added to the game! I don't believe currently they do in MD, bandits only spawn in their bandit camp locations around the map
right well i didnt expect ta bawl my eyes out while watching youtube vid. lol.. i guess there is alot to relate to.. ... dam you.. makin me cry lol.. - you are amazing. you are enough. - that shield is awsomes. love it. xx big loves.
jajaja me ha pasado.
Developers should forget the "directional" combat thing, and never look back. It looks and feels somewhat complex, but damn, these are games... Its just bad.
Not really bellwright is more a RPG And Dynasty is more a survival management game The only thing you can compair is the city building element the rest is totaly different
Is that an alphabet flag in your profile pic 😂 looks like a huge red flag
🤔
Bellwright is for lazy players.. no food or water and you survive? in a 'survival' game? wtf... and you don't have to control them to do things? Lazy again... and you can't even build your own house without coming back and its built for you when you want to do it yourself? wtf is that about? the game is ridiculous for that alone.
There are a lot of custom settings you can use if you want to make it harder or adjust to your liking. As I mentioned in the video, the survival element isn't the main appeal of Bellwright. It's rather more focused on combat, raids and warfare, which some people enjoy :) If everyone had the same tastes and liked the same things, the world would be a boring place don't you think? My goal for this video is to help people make a choice if they're not sure if they want to buy the game. And it seems that it did comfort you that you would probably not like this game, so that's success to me! :)
Medieval Dynasty wins easily. So she likes NPC's doing stuff without controlling them.. LAZY.. why play if you don't want to control the game to some point. and the other game will never be completed, they never do with any of their games.
Everyone likes games for different reasons, it's all subjective anyway. I prefer exploring and doing quests rather than getting bogged down in micromanagement. That's why I don't play heavy sim games and prefer survival/crafting for example. Everyone has their own preferences 🤷🏻♀️
nice game
fantastic channel
Thank you ☺️
Gwen! I had no idea what you were going through... You are loved by many people including me! You are a strong shield maiden!
Thank you Michael 🤗🤗
I found it! 🌈
omg I just saw you put dos art at the start!!! looks soo cool
Yeeeesss I sent her the screenshot too :D I LOVE IT SO MUCH
Your shield is painted! 🌈
Yeees finally! :) Made a video about it too
I just missed the live stream. At least I can watch the recording 😁
Many of my guy friends in their 40's are going through major issues with depression and job issues. Nobody seems to be willing to make actual changes to do something about it, just keep slogging forward hoping it will get better, or find a new distraction. Sounds like you've made huge changes to make things better, helps to have long term goals and feel like you have a purpose, for me anyways.
I did that myself for years, slogging forward until I couldn't anymore. Thankfully I have great friends who encouraged me and supported me when I was ready to make the changes ❤️ Change is scary but it helps to have great and caring people in your corner. Thank you for your warm words, I hope the people in your life who are struggling will also find their path 🙏🙏
@@GwentheShieldmaiden I often find people, who are not happy, will sometimes tell you that change is impossible, try to dampen your dreams. If they have to be miserable, I guess everyone else should be as well! Keep slugging forward, its nice to have friends who support you! It seems into my 40's now I have less and less people who have much time! The Shield turned out great btw, very nice!
Congrats on the 1k !!! loving the shield!
Thank you so much Wombat! :) 10k for you soon!!!
Mental health is important, and with high-functioning or "masking" depression you still feel all the symptoms even though the people around you can't see it. Take care of yourself first, that is all too easy to forget. I did like you; found help way too late and had to take a break from everything when it had gone too far. ❤🩹 And yes - that shield is really gorgeous!
You're so right..! I think that's why I didn't realise something was wrong for such a long time, I just slipped into it gradually. Take care of yourself sis! ❤️
@@GwentheShieldmaiden 🥰
I'm so happy that you found the RAINBOWS! easteregg right at the beginning. Although kinda ignoring it, hahaha. I was kinda sure that no one would :D
You can count on me to find all the decorative easter eggs :P and I didn't ignore it!! I appreciated it in silence lol
Thank you for sharing and being vulnerable. It is never easy. From an interviewee to an interviewer, here is my question. Is that fear that you have causing your depression, stress, pressure, and anxiety? ‘As my therapist said to me that was a rhetorical question.’ Hope the best for you Gwen. -Leif
Thank you so much Leif 🙏 I hope you're well too!
Kia Kaha
Kia ora 🙏
Thank you so much for sharing. I am so grateful you are here in my life.
Also, I say keep all your content here. Nice and easy to keep track of (for me lol)
As am I of having you in my life, you beautiful human 💚 Thank you
Hey girl...I'm probably old enough to be your mom or at the very least an aunt....but no matter the age we all are ...it can happen to us all. The words you said spoke straight to my soul and could have been my exact words...it's hard to take a step back and admit that you need help ...especially when you're acting like a normal human being holding down jobs and the like. You hang in there, we all love you and love watching you do what you do. As a history buff myself, I'm sooo excited about these videos...cannot wait. <3
Thank you Rosie 🥹 it means a lot. We all need to be a little kinder to ourselves, as much as we are to others 💜
