12 Things to Know as a Beginner | Easy Guide to Medieval Dynasty

[@jackiepaper1817]

You can move the door. You have to replace the door with a wall, so the house no longer has a door. Then you can change any single wall to the new door and the house will rearrange itself to match the new door position.

[@SparkyMamaGames]

Thanks, will give that a try. Worth it if you want to rotate the house.

[@allarian8726]

Im 60hrs in and I didnt know that until now, nice tip! I did try moving the door location before, just didnt know I had to replace current door with a wall. Will definitely use to have a little more variety with my buildings.

[@SideShowKidd]

Yeah it works. I found that out on my 5th house.

[@danielkrucekjr.4439]

I am so thankful for the internet.

[@mexymus7066]

The rigor mortis joke at 10:40 had me laughing haha, loved the video!

[@SparkyMamaGames]

Funny thing is, I didn't realise there was a bug until then. Surprised me.

[@howlingthrottle2465]

Very witty and funny indeed! Great video and well spoken

For your first resource storage, it can fill up fast, rather than build a second one you can just leave heavier items on the floor. Though your people cannot access them you can, so items like sticks, stones, logs, planks etc. if you have a ton you can place 75+% on the floor giving you more room to store things your people need and still keeping the things you need for future upgrades available. Spoilage, nah, build a composter or two right away, put excess cabbage and meat etc in there, go grab a ton of un-ripened berries, or regular berries and fill up the composter, even mushrooms you name it. That makes real cheap fertilizer free from the Rot fast and you get a task you can assign a barn worker in winter, or you can take the skill points yourself. Early on I take the first winter and pile up sticks and stones near my house, easier to find then. I can use them for new builds or I can dump sticks in each house's storage and they will use them for fires if the firewood runs low, sort of a safety valve.

[@SparkyMamaGames]

Nice addition. Yes, a great way to use unripened berrys. Stockpiling in winter is good, maintaining fuel and preparing for spring building.

[@brisapremia1658]

I put infinite weight and infinite stoma after playing the game for two days. I just don’t got that kind of time to be standing around building of Stima and then constantly transferring weight

[@SparkyMamaGames]

I totally get it. 😮‍💨 I've done the same after playing for hours. It cuts down the grind and makes your play more productive. More enjoyable.

[@ClownPrince8]

Another tip for building is that you can fully build a wattle house and then upgrade it - equip hammer, right click and select upgrade.

[@SparkyMamaGames]

Good tip. 😊 Some players go all out on wattle house before they realize they can change the materials.

[@wastedwatts]

Looting game NPCs/villagers is risky since at some point your avatar will be seen stealing and could get banned from the realm. Game over. I thought the standing dead bandits thing got fixed? I tend to place additional food and resource storage a bit from the main settlement on the way into the capital. Makes it easier to grab stuff to trade, or sell on the way into the main settlement with all the merchants. Good briefing for new players, but they will have to play for a while to understand all the good points and details of what you have provided.

[@SparkyMamaGames]

If you stick to chests inside buildings, and no-ones inside, you'll be fine. The bandit bug got fixed earlier this year. It was an older recording. Mentioned in video. Yes. For me, these are points that I figured out far too late. It could have made my time playing easier.

[@wastedwatts]

@@SparkyMamaGames Indeed, there are a lot of things we learn in game and wish we had already knew what the deal was and saved making a few dozen early game mistakes.

[@kaddy7622]

Please keep up the great work and I'll keep smashing like buttons! Your ability to explain things simply and decisively are needed in this community and as for me, much appreciated!

[@SparkyMamaGames]

That's the goal. I try to keep in simple, but concise if I can. 😄 Thanks for watching.

[@EighmyLupin]

I really wish they had a happy medium option for the stamina and weight, instead of only and on and off setting. I'd like to be able to carry more than default but not all and I'd like to use stamina half as much.

[@SparkyMamaGames]

Would be nice to have adjustment. I would consider not turning off myself. 😁 But easy from a programming perspective just to toggle.

[@Jlibby63]

Thanks so much, very helpful❤

[@SparkyMamaGames]

Thanks for watching.

[@Silmerano]

In real life if I'm going to build a house I'm going to bring all the materials to the site. It's a silly design philosophy to make it where a player has to constantly go back and forth get more material.

[@SparkyMamaGames]

True. Some games do have people putting resources at site before something is built. Banished, Forest Village, and other top down games generally do. I believe Bellwright has something like a stockpile built in the building site.

[@ZookeeperJim]

You can drop them on the ground, just like in real life.

[@SparkyMamaGames]

@@ZookeeperJim 😁🤔 I don't know... Sounds too realistic. 😉

[@ColtForteyFive]

@@SparkyMamaGamesI’m not to far into the game is there such things as wagons that you can load materials into in order to gather materials in bulk?

[@SparkyMamaGames]

@@ColtForteyFive No Wagon, however buying the large Backpack and Large Pouch is the way to go to increase carry weight. 😗 BUT... If you don't mind doing so, enable unlimited carry weight in settings. Carry as much as you like. 😏

[@mozofoz]

Very useful :) ..... I need to do a restart.

[@SparkyMamaGames]

Thanks for watching!

[@danielmorris8111]

Thank you for the tips🤟

[@SparkyMamaGames]

You're welcome

[@tannern.6526]

This game combined with bannerlords would be op, best game of all time.. imagine being able to design castles and withstand 3 or 4 year long seiges.

[@SparkyMamaGames]

Interesting. A few people have mentioned that it would be good to see fortifications in MD. I love Medieval Dyanasty for the chill atmosphere, medieval village simulator vibe. I would welcome more aggression, raids, village take overs, but I'd prefer it as an option/customizable, rather than base game. We'll see what the new patch has in store for us.

[@andishawjfac]

You are looking for a game called Bellwright, it has Bannerlords style combat and Medieval Dynasty style building, crafting and survival.

[@vlogsandgameswiththegrassh4277]

Thank you so much i wondered how ppl had stone houses been playing about 60h with basic houses. Thought it was a tech thing because of you i can now build stone house hahaha

[@SparkyMamaGames]

😆 Glad you found it now, and not at end game. Higher tier houses will help with warmth, and mood.

[@TheCheekyhalfling]

You said anything found at abandoned buildings respawns, im in my third season and none of them have respawned loot?

[@SparkyMamaGames]

I may have misspoken regarding when. Try after 1 whole year. I've looted the same chest in Piastovia with 500 coin.

[@Subcide]

Always nice stumbling on a kiwi accent in the wild :)

[@SparkyMamaGames]

Rare specimen we are. 😂

[@OpoOnTheGo]

Map points for things would be helpful, the front of a generic building doesn't help me much when trying to find the house with 500 gold hahaha

[@SparkyMamaGames]

Sorry, didnt think of that. It's the fanciest house in Piastovia, on Oxbow Map. Castellan lives there. You'll be able to see it when exiting the market. 2 sets of stairs, deer skull.

[@qusayalaa9388]

u saved me i love u

[@SparkyMamaGames]

Glad to have helped. 😊

[@beardedlonewolf7695]

I like survival settings but I disabled stamina because apparently we're an overweight 80 years old 😂

[@SparkyMamaGames]

😄 very true. Barely jogs far and we're puffed. Surely in a survival setting the characters should be physically fit.

[@paullilly-b5o]

​@@SparkyMamaGames what kills me is that no matter how much healthy food you eat, and no matter how many miles you sprint when loaded with stuff, your fitness never increases.

[@SparkyMamaGames]

@@paullilly-b5o Yes, healthy food. Healthy physique 😏😅

[@grit30]

I like making the seasons really long 😅

[@SparkyMamaGames]

😊 I thought default was fine until I increased the number of days... 🤔 Then I discovered, longer seasons takes the pressure off. However, not enough side quests available in each season. 🫠

[@jawolfinger]

You named him "Big Daddy?" 😂😂😂

[@SparkyMamaGames]

His name ensures respect and fealty to his very being. People will visit from across the land.

[@jawolfinger]

@SparkyMamaGames I think all his name ensures is that he will own many of "working girls" 🤣

[@SparkyMamaGames]

Miro is the only girl for him 😆

[@koofdome]

“Things I wish I knew sooner” (proceeds to waste 7 minutes of our time explaining self explanatory settings in a pause menu that literally have what they are in the name) Really trying to grow that channel eh?

[@SparkyMamaGames]

I tend to start my games on default and skip settings. I wish I knew what was available sooner. There's a Medieval Dynasty wiki with majority of the information I talk about, but many people like to watch or listen to a video on KZbin instead. Each to their own. Thanks for watching 😊

[@Fleebuss]

Playing this game with a friend having a blast and didnt know what fast crafting and fast building did since i had just turned it on 2 seconds in the game. Had no idea you actually craft/build 1 at a time it sounds very tedious. So this part of the video educated me, just because it didn’t help you doesn’t mean you can be a ***hole in the comments grow up

[@PaladinPriest-n7j]

go away troll we dont need you or your stupid comments

[@Wran84]

@@SparkyMamaGames Helped me. Much appreciated!

[@onionstu-vf2sw]

I've only played default as well, good to see the other options. I'll tweak a few since the Xbox SX version is charmingly janky. Thanks for highlighting them!
