Anno 1404, known as Dawn of Discovery in North America, is a city-building and economic simulation game with real-time strategy elements, part of the Anno series. Released in 2009, it was developed by Related Designs, produced by Blue Byte, and published by Ubisoft.
Anno 1404 is the sequel to Anno 1701 and is followed by the futuristic sequel Anno 2070. Though the game centers on a series of fictional events, the overall concept of the storyline is based upon real life aspects of medieval and renaissance history such as the Crusades, advancements in gothic architecture, construction of cathedrals, and hanseatic trade involving the rise of patrician merchants and early forms of capitalism.
And if you're interested in more Anno - I've played all the other games in the series!

[@DaShikuXI]

Man I used to play this one ages ago. Never really understood the game back then. I knew literally nothing about RTS and managing settlements in these kind of games. Now so many years later, even though I don't play this game, I can understand it so much better just from having played other games. Might give this an install again.

[@yannickcalvo7383]

Possibly the second best anno for me. You should give it a try again.

[@danicule8671]

This is not a RTS please

[@alexanderupb4546]

you don't know what it is rts lol:) you sure don't know anything about rst,management and economic games... RTS game are like starcraft,warcraft,AoE,Empire Earth series,Rise of Nations,Stronghold,Comand and Conquer series, Cossack series etc..

I’ve got all variations and I’ve played them all but Anno 1800 is my absolute favourite. I’m looking forward to watching you play this version again with the enhanced mod. Let the show begin! 🍿🖥👏❤️

[@TheNeilee]

This one is still my favourite, even tho 1800 is amazing

[@dasoull7790]

This Anno looks awesome. Never played any Anno game but I'm very excited to see how this gameplay will turn out. I loved the last Anno 1800 Series so much, I'm a big fan and can't wait to watch more of you playing this !

[@Artsyp_anda]

Recently came across your channel (was looking up Farthest Frontier gameplay and found you and watched your playthrough) and fell in love with your content! I love more relaxed gaming vibes and city management games overall so I'm really happy to have found such an amazing creator!

[@abdullariyal]

just love your series man, watching over years now. just low your accent and gameplay. i was gonna watch the old 1404 series and boom here we are with a new one, thanks mate

[@suibora]

instead of normally right clicking, If you shift+rightclick it will queue the commands for your ship and move them to each location one after another

[@plumdutchess]

Seriously?! I've have been obsessed with this game since forever and I never knew this lifesaving feature. Thanks for the wisdom!

[@HubertCumberdaleful]

Nice to see a new Anno series! And with one of my favourites on top (:

[@jamesgraham2830]

Love too see you back with anno

[@JannemanVaarwater]

Always fine playing and watching ANNO 1404 ❤️ -with Nivarias as my Captain as well 😁

[@prototype102010]

Anno 1404 was my first experience with Anno back in... maybe 2017? I thought it was just a city builder, like Sim City but once I started playing I got very confused with the product chains and different worker levels. I kinda gave up with it until 1800 came out and I got super addicted to that game. Thanks so much for this series, I might just reinstall 1404 and see what all I missed!

[@mrt7201]

I love your gameplays, because they take away all the annoyances I would've had if I played the game myself on a difficulty like that. Need the second episode ASAP.

[@Nivarias]

Three episodes are out actually! Just have a look at the playlist! :)

[@mrt7201]

@@Nivarias My bad, saw it just this moment. Thought you uploaded this today and not 2 days ago haha.

YES! I love this one. Please keep it going till you reach your goals.

[@PizoCh1008]

Been watching your different LPs for awhile now. I lol'd at the part where you built the tavern next to the church. You know what they say, "In heaven, there's no beer." 😆

[@bagpuss121]

I Love The IAAM Mod As It Gives Us The Oriental Buildings That The Original Game Didnt Have , Like The Oriental Port & Harbour Build Set .

back to 1404 poggerss!!!! excited to tune in with this one

[@Artentus]

Oh hell yea, 1404! I wish they had patched blueprinting and moving buildings into the history edition.

[@Beninator-mt6nx]

This series looks great! I can’t wait to see how beautiful your city ends up being. I’m not as familiar with 1404 so this will be interesting

Lord it's been a while since I played this game. Still love it!

Would love to see a new series Anno 1800 with the new extreme mod you played before. But without the bugs. :)

Coming up next!

Stupid KZbin didn’t show this series in my feed :( time to binge it!!!

[@Nivarias]

Enjoy! :)

[@SilverAranda]

I love Anno 1404! one of my first rts and my first anno game! and that is why I AM STILL so SALTY about they removing the camping!!! AAAAAH I couldn't finish it back on the day.. still this is going to be very interesting to see let's have fun!

[@unbenanntunbekannt]

They didn’t remove the campaign. If you‘re a normal person you‘re either playing on uplay or steam (which still requires uplay) and in both you can choose between 1404 and 1404:Venice. 1404 = 6 Scenarios + Campaign. Venice = 18 Scenarios + No campaign.

[@omaarpoiriez]

My favourite Anno game, still looks great!

[@waiyanhein9612]

Might be grate series

[@maartenlauryssens7367]

Hey Nivarias Its about a half a year i was watching youre video's but im back to see a lot of good content. Keep going ❤❤👊👊

Glad you like it and welcome back!

Classic and special with nivarias

[@schleimiomedio8434]

I just gotta say that I really enjoy your videos! What do you think about a series of ANNO 1404 where you obtain the golden ship? It might take a while tho :D The Sultans' Mosque within 5 hours has just broken me ;D

[@michelwolbink3089]

A gamer ‘red echo’ has a really nice gameplay for getting that achievement. Thanks to her and the unoffical patch, I got the golden ship. It took me half a year 🙈😂

Nice, go for it

[@lordfaladar6261]

yay anno

[@adastra753]

love it!

[@guypainter]

You don't need to establish relations with Al Zahir in order to settle southern islands. You lost some time there. Also you can establish an "Oriental" city even though you settled with an "Occidental" main warehouse. You can change it later if you prefer the look of the oriental warehouse, but the point is you can settle those southern islands as early as you want even if you haven't found the Grand Vizier's trading post yet.

[@stipepoljak1985]

Venice. Oh sweet memories.

[@Nossral]

Don't think i have ever seen 1404 so this will be cool

[@yeexuz1807]

I Love Anno so much… my Favorit always was 1701. Is there any Chance to bring back a Series of 1701??? Keep up the Great work! Much Love from Germany

[@Nivarias]

Glad you like the content! 1701 is kind of like a smaller version of 1404 with every system being a bit weaker so probably no 1701 content any time soon! Sorry :( More 1800 after this again though!

[@akkir6707]

leif settling next to you is kinda bummer XD. happened with me aswell before that's why after i settle in my main island i always bring some tools and wood when exploring the map with my flagship so i can settle in another island if needed. imagine if that's the kardinal LOL

[@Nivarias]

If it would have been the Kardinal we probably would have to reload :D

[@dexterroble6930]

We will watch your series with great interest Only if my KZbin notifications are not 1min late

[@someoneishere7205]

This game is better than 1800.

[@vitalyhrenyuk7472]

How do you change the view , I am trying too but I can only zoom in and out

[@Matteus2109]

Is this a new version? The Venice version I have doesn't do the 'cultivate' mechanic. Still uses plots for production goods. Is it any different?

[@Nivarias]

History Edition including Venice!

[@Zyo117]

As a Cities Skylines player, I spend a lot of time in first person (with mods) just watching my city. I feel like that would be a bad idea with the pace of Anno

[@xShinitai]

actually just finished the other extreme difficulty anno 1404 lets play, lets watch a new one then I guess ^^

[@TrySomeFentanyl]

Oh man, I cannot stop myself from getting stressed every new series when you spend half your starter money on your damn mega roads lol

[@Nivarias]

They are my everything!! 😅

[@Dwarfsayingwtf]

you could pull the road into the right click build menu; also F11 pulls up an additional menu for increasing speed and such

[@Nivarias]

Speed and such is put to hotkeys, less clicky but thanks for the input! :)

[@SpicyFiur]

Are you considering playing Anno 1503? It has always been my most favourite as you could build walls.

[@Nivarias]

Have two let's plays of that already! :)

[@SpicyFiur]

@@Nivarias maybe do some lets play togethers for some of the Anno titles. 1800 etc. But I guess sooner or later the content will dry up. Any idea if they will release another Anno?

[@SpicyFiur]

Also - you cant consider them ones. One is 3 years ago and the other one is unfinished. Maybe try to show the campaign. This game is famous for its military after all.

I remember I played that a long time ago. Not sure if it was on a 486 or maybe already a Pentium CPU...

[@alienmozart9902]

yeah Leif settling right next to you was an AI mistake I think. that weird little island he chose has cider and hemp, both starter island necessities. AI thought it was an actual first island lol. Probably his mistake will help you in the long run

[@Nivarias]

It is because he is getting smacked by his eastern neighbour :p

[@mr.englishlearner1032]

How you build multiple buildings at once?

Hi Nivarias Notice me ❤️ love your anno videos

[@mickeyrace873]

honestly though if only ubisoft isn't such a difficult platform to work with i would have love to give this gem a replay, but as it stands my 1404 doesn't even want to run in my new laptop and i have no idea why

[@ironmaidenfanish]

❤️❤️❤️

[@hugoschmitz8359]

I bought Anno 1800 because of you, dont make me buy this one too!

[@Nivarias]

You need to!!! It's only a couple of euros most of the time anyway 😁

[@bandaro1234]

I think restricting access to goods for your citizens had lost you money. You have stocked up cider so quickly you immedietely started selling it, which is less profitable than giving it to your citizens. The cider they didn't drink during the prohibition is a money lost, was painful to see especially as you were approaching bottom of your coffin. I can understand restricting access to a limited good like tools in Eden Burning from 1800, when you want to leapfrog citizens to next level and generally not give them said good, but what would be the reason behind restricting cider when you have ample supply of it? Even in the times of 50% coverage, the consumption rate and tax scales accordingly, so it's not like you are losing money when their bellies are half empty. You are only really losing when they are not consuming

[@TrySomeFentanyl]

How come you have never done a series on 1701, 1602, or 1503?? Are those just the duds of the Anno games?

It burned my PSU back in the days. Literally went up in smoke!

[@peterpobel4700]

Fun fact: Ashgabad is the capital of Turkmenistan IRL.

[@ElizabethDMadison]

This game looked right up my alley but i am dismayed it has a "Cardinal" character who seems to be portrayed much more negatively than the secular characters. Everyone should be disgusted by anti-Catholic bigotry.
