    Thank you for playing this! I love the workshop extensions, its more historically accurate. And I know people complained about the "workers" being tied to families, but that's also more accurate. Families were central to labour and professional training; think of all those surnames today (Smith, Cooper, Tanner etc)

    • @powrich12
      @powrich12 Місяць тому +8

      Some people don't realize when they watch movies set in medieval times and people are like "my father was a blacksmith, as was his father before him" (says a blacksmith) that's because blacksmithing is the FAMILIES job (mostly the men ofc but yea)

    • @vaevictis6990
      @vaevictis6990 22 дні тому +1

      @powrich12 exactly. There were no schools and with ridged caste structure, your family was tied to a certain job for generations. I guess unless you a) became a priest or b) got an apprenticeship in another trade

    Hey there Darren. I used to watch your OG ANNO 1800 series and when I saw Manor Lords finally coming out on the various channels.. I just had to jump back to you and even signed up for a Membership to get all the goodies ASAP! Love your approach and energy in the videos, lots of love from the Czech Republic!

      Previously it was a limited demo, this is more scenario based sandbox, so I plan on finishing this one and then also tackling the other mode on a harder difficulty, and hopefully following the games updates too!

I technically am still in the middle of watching your Anno 1800 series (always get distracted by rebuilding my islands after getting inspiration from your play), but I really liked the short series you had on Manor Lords earlier.

    If the Dev adds Politics/Government System where you can assign valiant/intellectual villager to a certain position; have a General (commander) in a unit possibly 3 Generals in one Army unit; have the main Lord takes the Lead of the battle (the Lord himself is one the General in a unit); have your Lord a Family System where you can select a villager as your wife and have kids; have an Heir System just in case your Character dies in the battle where your son or daughter or wife takes over the throne; The Character(lord) must have a title or rankings based on achievements; AND LASTLY THE MOST IMPORTANT THING THAT THIS GAME SHOULD HAVE IS THE ABILITY TO CHANGE ALL VILLAGERS NAME FOR BETTER IMMERSION OF THE GAME. then this will be great alternative for TW3K

    It also made me cry and laught at the same time that you managed to make the most "modern" looking american style city (grid) ever when the game is crazy good helping you to make relaistic europian middle ages towns with the plot system able to curve. xD

    Hi Darren, hope you're doing well man.
    I have mixed feelings about this game, there's a lot of hype and it seems like it wants to be everything at once which is worrying also with the expectations on a Early Release.
    Furthermore, I don't know if its because of the game or another stage in your life but I don't feel the same spark from you that you had during the ANNO1800 series. I even remember you did this Christmas episode when you were moving.
    Great times and thanks for always giving us a nice and relaxing playthrough

    I hear the downside to two houses on a plot was when you're placing plots at the back. You'd be making two families work the plot at the back instead of one, if you had one plot. So apparently you should make one houses plots for your artisans.

    • @WhatDarrenPlays
      @WhatDarrenPlays  Місяць тому

      But this is actually a way of doubling the speed of production instead of making two blacksmiths or something. Maybe you never need two though.

    • @lukeallen8929
      @lukeallen8929 Місяць тому

      @WhatDarrenPlays double production is good sure but it would drain resources quicker than you can get them surely?

    Would it work better if you built your industrial building next to your store? That way everything is going to one place and all your industrial building just have to walk there?

    • @WhatDarrenPlays
      @WhatDarrenPlays  28 днів тому

      I guess it depends - Industry comes from something right, such as wood or iron or stone, or some animal products. Is it better to lump all industry together near a store, or have all industry near its needed raw resource? I'm not sure really.
      In future episodes I build logging industry all together in one place with their own storage. Food with its own granary, sheep near their sheep shearing and their own storage. All with a central market. I agree the goal is to cut down travel time, but in the early game I think being close to the resource is probably more important.

  • @AlessandroFilippiUX
    @AlessandroFilippiUX Місяць тому

    If you do not assign anyone to storage, things are not taken to the storage... also I believe you built the market in one of the few fertile areas you had.

    • @WhatDarrenPlays
      @WhatDarrenPlays  Місяць тому

      People do take things to storage actually, its just more efficient to have a store worker do it. And i dont plan on building farms in this region, so no problem!

    @joeblessed14 Місяць тому +1

    You could have more familys come if you that care of the ones you have. Meaning you used up all the berries, know you can't make dies latter on. You had animals for food. You could have waited on the church. Supplies are first with market and have every family with a farm. Veggies, chickens, and goats. The rating goes up first the most food you have. Am extra ox would have been good to move along. The longer the house plot is the more they provide. I would have liked you to make the second row of houses right behind the first set before going across the street. I have noticed in this game it is not the approval rating that brings families in first but supplys and more importantly food. If you do that first and water well. You can wait to do what the the other things the game suggested. Also for some reason families come faster when you have a trading post. Even if you are trading small at first. I watch several videos really enjoy this, but I seen a guy that ignored everything. Had almost 200 pop. Build up his industry first. Then houses with big yards and second house and every house had a place at market, veggies, chicken, goat. Approval went high without church or anything else, food and basic supplies, and trade bring the people.
