Jon: "I've literally got too much money"
Proceeds to pass by every spot to spend money on
You don't always want to spend money on everything. For example the first upgrade of farm the peasant go back to the town center or an other farmer shack at night, while the upgraded version they start staying there, thus generate more money, as they have to spend less time travelling, but make them vulnerable to attack and thus getting their tool stolen, if you cannot hold a defensive line further ahead.
Even tower can be problematic if you upgrade too much, as if there is no wall, the enemy will just zip by the tower, while a mobile archer can defend where the wall limit is and generate money if they have some forest within the wall or at the edge.
Jon this game isnt just like thronefall, it isnt about expanding your walls as far as possible, its about building up and recruiting and surviving. You gotta explore and clear land yeah but the more you spread out the harder it is to defend. Its better to have 2 walls and be stone rather then 5 stage 1. Usually once a wall falls the horde kills whats behind it. Then your defenseless
So that thing you threw a gem into next to the dock in order to get a gem back for a coin? Yeah that's a bank. You put your gems in there, and they are held safe so that you don't lose them to the Greed like you did a good way through the game, and so you have more space in your bag for more coins.
As someone who has spent many hours in this game; this is such a Jon video. Simultaneously frustrating, and entertaining. Never change
But you definitely need to do a livestream so that Claire can yell at you
He simultaneously did soo many game ending things wrong and yet didnt die and in fact had way more income then i probably could if i tried... amazing
The fact his first choice out of the tutorial was getting rid of the camp XD
as John talks at the end you can faintly hear the screams of the people in island 1
The second Jon deleted the recruitment camp I actually headdesked. I remember back when I would make that mistake, and it is so painful. It damns your entire game and you can make that mistake the second it starts.
not anymore, they added the breeding house you see
The only saving grace is that since the release of Norse Lands you can upgrade them into houses. Although that's only worth doing when you have a massive amount of archers and a farmer heavy economy.
@@martinprince8253
Camps spawn a vagrant every 2 minutes. Recruit for 1 coin. Cost nothing to build.
Houses spawn a citizen every 3 minutes. Hire for 5 coins. Costs coins to build house.
It is significantly cheaper to build AROUND the camps than it is to destroy them.
Jon expanded WAY to quickly.
then he goes and destroys the trader hut as well
A recent (by which I mean several months old) update to allows you to replace destroyed camps with houses which produce hireable peasants at a slow rate, so you're not entirely screwed if you tear down the last camp.
Did you notice that the tutorial messages are reflected in the river? Absolutely beautiful detail!
I love how this game just makes you explore and figure things out. It actually feels like a journey you go through when you find new things and figure out how they work. Just so, so enjoyable.
It would be fine if it didn't have waves of enemies after time
I loved this game, the different versions each give a nice flavour and twist and its surprisingly deep at times once you learn all the mechanics.
The mounts are a fun touch, the stag is fastest in wooded areas, gryphon has a special move if you hit I think space?
The vikings stuff is fantastic change and the chest is a safe keeping thing. The reason you couldnt march the other way is because you didn't have anyone to take the shields and become the knights to march that way after you lost the first one. Gotta keep bribing peasants and making hordes of archers!
Gryphon can feed anywhere, not just on grass, which is quite usefull.
that too!@@The66Hammer
The art style in this game is so gorgeous, I love it!
I love how Jon keeps telling people to stop giving him money and how it keeps spilling out of the bag.
Jon, have you ever considered just... not picking it up?
After checking out Thronefall I'm very glad to see Jon learn about the original game that inspired it. Beautiful pixel graphics and amazing atmosphere.
I'm very into the idea of a maximum amount of money the elite class is allowed to have.
This game has one of my favorite soundtracks of any games I've played, almost purely because it all has such a wonderfully calming and chill vibe while the game itself is incredibly stressful and overwhelming.
Oh god i wish he knew he needs like 100 archers to survive
Given that this is a coop game, any chance we can get a multiplayer stream in the future?
Edit: Tips for the future!
You can herd deer toward your hunters.
If you stop on the grass for a bit, your horse will bend down to eat, giving it extra stamina for a while.
I love this game. It's so simple and yet, because the tutorial is so short, you have to figure everything out for yourself, and the only way to do that is to do it, get it wrong, invite disaster, have everything fall to bits, curse god, start again, and try and do better.
The "bridges" that Jon builds are actually farms and allow the planting of crops nearby. Upgrading it allows more crops, and it can be wise to avoid building walls too close to allow more room for farming.
The vagrant camps only disband when you expand/cut down trees too close to them. It's a good idea to keep them up and running for a good few days at the start of the game for cheap and easy access to new villagers.
When your horse is tired, if you stop long enough to let it eat some grass it will regain it's stamina (just make sure you're actually standing over grass and not dirt).
If you're full on coins and in a dangerous situation, it can worthwhile to drop a handful of coins for the greed rather than let them overwhelm yourself or your villagers.
I love this game so much and have spent countless hours playing it's different modes. A fantastic game to play while chatting or while watching videos.
The shields you add to your castle are to upgrade villagers to knights. Whichever side you add the shield to is the side the knight will go to and lead an attack from. When a villager takes a shield, it's replaced by a banner.
Part of your problems with the game come down to, as always, your lack of perception. When you added those banners to the castle you could see when an unemployed person chose one and became a swordsman allowing you to then send forces on an attack, but only once someone chose it as a job thus only the right side continued to have an army but the left didn't. The catapult came from a building you built and if you had seen it you would have noticed that the catapult was built and pushed to the furthest available barricade. You are completely right that experimentation is key to this game, and I won't deny that there is a lot that goes unsaid like the different mounts or the odd structures you can find, but there are a few times where paying attention to what you were experimenting with would have answered your questions.
Also, you don't have to pick up the money people throw at you. You can leave it on the ground quite happily as they throw it at you and they will just pick it up again so if your bag is full just run back to town and buy all the things then go back and get the money from the people who grabbed it. You may still pick up anything in your path but if someone starts chucking coins at you and you don't want them you can just run away.
Jon, you should avoid expanding your walls and cutting the trees next to the hobo camps, until you have enough archers to bluescreen your computer, only then should you expand.
Edit: Only ever make build orders near the edge of your territory right in the morning so your builders have enough time. If your builders do get caught out at night, drop coins to feed the greed so they can get back safe.
Edit 2: Oh thank God!
I LOVE this game.
It gets really hard in the later stages.
I am crying out so hard.
Jon's perception is making the game so much harder for him.
Jon, Everything does have labels on it. The statue on island 1 is for empowering archers. island 2 farmers.
The edges of the kingdom have sign posts for which direction they are facing and expeditions only go that direction.
Those gems are lost forever, or atleast until you defeat the monsters on that island.
I'm not sure. I never lost the gems without losing the game.
This was a good... Stressful... Fun video. I look forward to you streaming it if you decide to.
I was extremely eager to see the moment Jon realises he can just bribe the goblins away, was'nt disappointed !
You still have a lot to figure out Jon, I'd love to see you play a bit more. I don't want to backseat, but yeah that's clearly the type of games where you can benefit having someone point out some tips !
Concerning your army to the left, it's just that the shields that you paid for on your castle's walls have'nt been taken by any citizen yet, so you don't have knights. No knight = no attack as you've seen they act like "mobile walls" when you try to take out a portal.
Also if you want another tip about knights, you might have noticed knights can take hits as long as they've got some pocket money.
Load them with cash before an attack and they'll fight longer (Chivalrous loyalty is not cheap it seems).
This is an intriguing game, and I'd enjoy seeing more of it.
Could you be interested in Stray Gods, a musical RPG about Greek mythology by David Gaider, writer for Knights of the Old Republic and Dragon Age
I'm hoping for this as well.
I could've sworn you played this already. Maybe it was Dan 😅
Yeah Dan streamed it a while ago
It's always confusing when Let's Players you follow play the same game, either simultaneously or years apart. I've watched a pretty good LP of this game already and am excited to see if Jon turns this into at least one livestream!
Amazed it took John this long to find this gem of a game, it's been around for a good while
Man, I remember spending hours upon hours playing this building a kingdom and expanding it across the land only to move to a new plot and restarting. I wonder how they're doing now...
I would love you to play some more of this so people can explain it to you - it's a great game, but you probably need explanations or to look at the wiki to get very far.
"I mean it got a flag" How well British of you Jon!
Eddie Izzard would approve.
I played the crap out of this like 8 years ago! Glad you found it.
I think the reason the game seem so obtuse is because it is the third game in a serie but also can almost be seen as the second extension for the original Kingdom. It build a lot on the rules of the original game and expect the players to be familiar with at least one of the other games in the serie. It also work a lot by trial and error.
Claire and John are two People
Kingdom is called two Crowns
Livestream confirmed!!!
I just bought this game a few days ago. Weird coincidence. Having lots of fun with it tho
I could swear that Jon already played this game on his channel. I must have mixed it up with someone else, but it's funny how brain sometimes decides to edit the reality just like that.
Anyway, Jon, monsters seem to be content with just stealing stuff. If you drop coins they should grab one each and then run away. Bribing them to go away might be cheaper than sacrificing villagers and infrastructure. Edit: Ah, nvm, you figured it out.
I would love a full playthrough of this!!!
I hate games that tell you nothing. This isn't a "games that tell you nothing are bad" thing.
It's just I'm 40, I don't have that much time for gaming these days so I really appreciate the quest markers in modern games.
I've played games since the SpectrumZX, all I want now is to be told an entertaining story with some entertainment along the way.
So while this game is not something I want to play at all, it's definitely something I'd enjoy watching others play
I played this when it and its prequal game was released, i remember some of the hints i learned, if they've not been updated out.
1. dont cut last tree before neaerst camp as it will stay if theres one tree before it and it repopulates every few days.
2. the horse will recharge if it eats grass so when it tired rest on a little bit of grass and the horse will eat it.
3. you can sort of lead deer back towards your archers if you need money.
4. you can drop coins purposly to distract the gremlins
I do enjoy people discovering Kingdom even if sometimes it's like watching someone play a Stradivarius violin with a house brick.
I think John played this game before it a couple years ago it looks crazy familiar
I must admit to being very confused when I heard Jon compare this to Thronefall, when he'd played the sequel, Kingdom: Eighties so recently. Then I looked back through the channel to find that he *hadn't* played it, it must have been NerdCubed I was thinking of. Then I checked the NerdCubed channel, and it wasn't him, either. Turns out it was Angory Tom I was thinking of.
Winter is coming, and you know nothing Jon.
This should be fun
Imagine if Claire had been roped into this.
Thieving King just stole the Rabbit's college fund.
I totally though Jon had already played this original Kingdom years ago. I was convinced of it. But after half an hour of searching through his videos I see that I was wrong. (It was Jacksepticeye......)
Got this game months and the music is so relaxing and simple....time Flys when you play it
The army marches towards the side with the portal on.
It was not rabid taxation of the peasants, it was rabbit taxation of the forest.. :D
Yes plz Jon, finish this game, lets see how far you can take it..
I for one would VERY much like to see this as next Thursday’s live stream!!! Can I get some thumbs ups and whatnot to gain more support for this idea?
Its so fun watching these videos. Makes me want to see you run through Journey to the Savage Planet. The combo of you and that game would be fun to watch
I wish the Oblivion crisis was that easy to solve, by bribing everyone.
This also has some elements of Ratropolis.
I swear I saw Jon play this previously, but if not.... who did I watch? it's not listed in my watch history .... but I remember this game .... I watched someone play it....
Count Goldwine used to ride by Martin and throw septims at him. It's how Martin learned to stay patient to keep from going Hulk until it came time to battle Megatron.
It pains me so much to see the deforestation leading to loss of settlements and the trader! You don't always have to remove every tree. If you have a setpiece like a campsite or the really big campsite, which is where the trader lives, you want to leave one tree on each side of it so the set piece doesn't vanish! You lost the trader twice by doing that. And campsites keep spawning new people so you don't always have to pay five coins for ones from the house. That said, this game is all about learning and is SO MUCH fun but there are some things that you would probably never learn if someone didn't tell you. Also you can change your flag!
8 mins in and the expanding to fast has already killed me 🤣😂🤣 I have spent a good few hrs on this game and expanding to fast is the fastest way to kill good progress especially clearing that recruit tent
I tough i knew this game but did not recognized the name, apparently the one i know is called "Kingdom classic" which is apparently a watered down version
It doesn't have quite the high-handed contempt of flicking a coin at a wandering peasant to make him work for you; but riding past to place an order with your brood proles seems even more problematic.
Now you gotta play the 80s kingdom 2 crowns version xD
Kinda surprised you played this older one when the new Kingdom Eighties game just came out like a month ago.
You are criminally undersubscribed, love ya Jon ❤
Ah, kingdom, the fantastic beautiful game
Jon, you keep calling them citizens, but surely in a kingdom they are subjects? Unless you’ve got a constitution…
It would be a great livestream
Kingdom 1 and 2 are fun games but yeah, get a bit frustrating with the difficulty and being able to shoot yourself in the foot with decisions you don't know are bad.
So my recommendation - try Kingdom Eighties, which is like Kingdom 1 and 2, but it's the 80s, the plot is 80s teen movie, and the game itself has a lot fewer "gotchas". That game you can actually finish without trying it 5 times over.
As for having too much money - you should be spending that excess money on hiring more people and making more archers (or building other things). You can't ever have too many archers!
HORRAY some kingdom two crowns
Rule 1 of this game, *never* chop down the camps to recruit people.
I've always loved this franchise
Oh man this just hit me with so much nostalgia, I should go for yet another stint with this game.
Also I made all of the same mistakes when I first started so that was also nostalgic haha
Why did I think Jon already did a video on this game, what fever dream did that come from
I thought this was Kingdom Come: Deliverance for a second… a game Jon needs to do a full play through of.
We’ve finally got Jon to play this game
I love these games and the recent one that was like 80s/ or 70s themed was amazing and it had a pretty decent storyline as far as I’m concerned
I think I have played this game a few decades ago on my C64.... 😁😁
please do a co-op game and try one of the other modes like Norse land, or shogun one it be a fun blast
Pay you knights.
I could have sworn I've seen you play this.
Add this game to your live stream list please
42:20 probably quantum mechanics.
Is it really a convoluted route if it is only one degree of separation? A circuitous route maybe.
I guess Jon u have never eaten rabbit. It is very good and is low in fat, As to rabbit fur it is soft and warm.
Now as to the game. someone knows how a horse runs all for hooves off the ground at the same time. This bods good for this game
I've had Classic and New Lands in my Steam library for years, not touched them.
Kinda wish for a Homeric version, I think it would suit the type of game better.
I wonder what John would think of the games 80s themed version
Bro please do the trilogy! , this is your type of game!
he lost all the gems he refused to spend lol
Huh this game has changed since I last played it.
This game seems like fun and it's available to me at no extra cost on PS4/PS5 since I have PS+
Appreciate you Jon for boosting my game library once more
Its the 10 year anniversary for fallout NV kill everything. Can we get a reboot in the future?
nice recruitment camp there. DELETED! Nice TRader. DELETED! All in the first 10 mins. :P
I still somehow manage to destroy the vagrant camps on occasion. Luckily they can be replaced with housing, more expensive and slower recruitment. But looks neater.
I got over 1500 hours in this and it's two predecessors and the 80's sequel. I rather like this series. :)
Add this to the list of games that Jon should play again but probably won't because views rip.
Do you need "gems"?
Or do you need... "Amethysts"!?!
Reinstalled.... 8 hours invested... THIS IS YOUR FAULT JON!!!!
5 minutes from posting? Excellent!
I caught this in the first 11 seconds!! That's some FRESH MATN content!!!!
Isn't there a similar game to this but in the metro with mutants?
"Until We Die"
31:20 🤦🏽♂️
The many, many cuts make it unpleasing to watch. :( 15:55 "we've got a boat...." CUT
Livestream please!
Fun game, better with 2 players
