Is Sengoku Dynasty BETTER Than Medieval Dynasty?

[@PinoyZo1]

But honestly the run smoother part is the biggest deal breaker in these type of games.

[@Lyzander911]

It's the skill points for me

[@NotHappening-b8t]

i mean honestly. game like this just cap ur cpu at 30-60 fps... for the game. anything more is just waste of power and burning up ur pc for nothing... the only games fps really matters in any meaningful way is fps games.... i sure dark souls style lol. but pve stuff honestly lol just run smooth drop the crazy fps. ur eyes can only see around 60-100 anyway slol why people run stuff over 100 is baffles me. as if they could tell the difference

[@johntoney810]

@Sir Jaywalker you also forgot to mention tho sengoku dynasty you can build multiple villages and name each one als if i am not mistaken sengoku last update added ability to marry and have heir and even send them to school or have them taught in the way of the warrior and if i am not mistaken i read you can now play as your heir

[@gloriasdaughter940]

I like this assessment. I have both games and have really enjoed the designing and customization in Medieval dynasty. ( I drop a lot of items to place everywhere) but even though I can't do that as easily in Sengoku I am a fan of the indoor customization more in that game. Really hoping MD catches up on that front

[@FreeReel1]

I agree with the spiritualism point. I feel like something is missing in Medieval Dynasty without it. As a fan of Kingdom Come Deliverance, I hope they add something. Maybe just having a small monestary or perish would be enough.

[@TetraDax]

Just a church in general. What medieval village is complete without a church?

[@deblaria9740]

Since the game is based mostly on western slavic settlements I think it would be so cool to have christianity with slavic pagan elements, picturing times of early christianisation of slavic pagans, where people are a little bit confused, and pray to christian god, but also participate in old slavic traditions (for example burning or drowning marzanna doll by the children during spring equinox, it's a purely slavic tradition that has nothing to do with christianity, and the church wanted to get rid of that throughout the centuries, though people still celebrate it to this day in Poland)

[@dra6o0n]

I feel like they could have improved spirituality with a character 'morality' and 'ethic' system, where your actions hampers your stats if you do things that are considered bad in Japanese culture, like over harvesting the nature, committing too many murders, or such. The idea is that your 'spirit' declines, which may impact the character's courage, honor, or valor of sorts? And how it impacts you gameplay wise, is that it may reduce the damage you do in combat, or impact the damage you take in combat, or your hunger rate, how it refills, as well as your stamina regen and consumption. For instance normally attacks in a simplistic melee based rpg would do fixed damage, but if you want more complexity, offer a range of damage, like a knife that does 1-4 damage with a weight value of 1. Low weight means you do more lower end average damage, but costs less stamina to swing it constantly. High weight means you will more likely hit higher numbers, but cost a bit more stamina to manage it. So if your spirituality is bad, it may impact these values, making you do better or worse with light or heavy weapons. It might even impose a 'RNG' luck effect on you. Currently you level up a skill that enables more loot when you loot enemies or stashes, or level up a skill that nets you access to animal parts... But we could based that on 'spirit' and 'luck' as well?

[@ATrainGames]

Fantastic and thorough analysis, @SirJay. I agree with many of your points, and feel like that Dev team on MD has gone the wrong direction with the forthcoming update, based on what seems to be the majority of players' desire (don't really increase the combat aspect of the game). I completely agree that MD could improve their Skill development tree which would increase specialization and stretch out the upgrade time (Production alone should have five distinct lines for Hand-Crafting, Woodworking, Cooking, Sewing, and Smithing - and some of those could have sub-categories.). Also, I think it's worth taking a look at other period games (Farthest Frontier) to improve realism aspects of the game and to provide purpose to under-utilized elements in MD (food spoilage being almost 2 years, for example. Meat along should perish after a couple of seasons - unless it's dried, smoked, or salted... And THUS there would be a REASON to gather salt from the mines). Plus I've long been an advocate for incorporating Filth, Disease, and Pestilence in MD like you see in FF. This would give more reason to staff the Herbalist's Hut and make potions, create the need for a village doctor/healer (and supporting structure - which is already IN the game with the Sick House on Oxbow), and job positions like nightsoil collector to scoop the poop and improve villager happiness/reduce pestilence/disease. Shared... and I hope a lot of people watch this! Great job!

[@Gr4cchus]

Excellent video. It would be so cool if both studios merged and made a new game together.

[@ChordRunner]

This is the content I've been looking for. When I thought that you have just convinced me to buy Sengoku, you gave so strong pros of MD that I don't know which one to buy again, and eventually I think I will just buy both. Now only waiting for some nice sale on Steam... I'd also gladly see shrines in MD. Well, I hope that MD will introduce all the good things that SD has and vice versa, so I won't have to buy both... without these changes and without a solid discount, I won't buy neither probably.

[@aesirgaming1014]

I think both games are fun in their current state, but both would also benefit from major improvements. I love these types of games and one day it'd be really nice to see all of these small devs bands together and make one large, complete game. Too much to hope for, I know, but a guy can dream.

[@Johnnyluvschu]

I just love medieval Dynasty so much myself but I know others like Sengoku. Would like to see Churches and the like enter MD as that could be a neat way to section off some villages. (one of a religion and another of a different, or some social structure of sorts added. Some of the voice lines are goofy in MD but still a great game.

When they create new similar games, they should alwayd improve on what was bad, keep what was good and add what was missing. Battle should be a main focus and I agree on the bow part, should be hard in the beginning and get better. Having so little customisation is sad and not adding too the family part is a big miss.

[@MedleyOfGames]

Great video, full watch from me! I have both games and just started covering Sengoku myself on my channel again after the full release. I appreciate your comparisons between the two and agree on most accounts. The only thing I disagree on is I think the environment in Sengoku just looks beautiful, where as Medieval has more of a bland look. Just my opinion though!

[@SirJayWalker]

That's fair. I do think Sengoku is more colorful, but like I said, I'm biased 😆

the thing about the combat in medieval dynasty that i like is that 1 hit can kill you, i dont like those tanky games where if you mess up its just like -10 health

the only thing driven me to play Sengoku is the Priestess or Miko. how i have longed for the ability to court a Miko girl. but, turns out the only candidate was from your own villager and the quest never leads to you recruit a story npc that's a Miko. i was hoping for Chiime since she's alone with her mother... but that's also a no no. at least the only thing i'm hoping for is Gifting clothes to villagers resulting in them using it as their outfits. so at least i could assign my wife to a Shrine in my mansion and have her to be the Miko

[@drexpak5489]

Right now, i would say Sengoku Dynasty is better then Medieval Dynasty, but whit an update for Medieval Dynasty rjght around the corner, i think we have to wait to further comparision. But as always, good video SirJay Props from Portugal 🇵🇹🍻 PS: for some reason, i only saw your video now, KZbin algorithm at is finest...

[@Integroabysal]

Sengoky artstyle brings me flashbacks of bellwright , and that game looks like its made out of plastic and clay, Medieval Dynasty is just a ez win for me in terms of art style , however , the skill tree in Medieval is just borderline stupid (imho) I mean , some of the skills are just straight up killing a whole branch of mechanics like the temperature skill in the survival tree straight up deleting the need of better clothes in winter or in summer , and the stacking stamina consumption stuff where you have the skill for -30% stamina consumption and you have the beverages that have -80% total stamina consumption and you basically transform your character in to a marathon runner that has infinite stamina and the list can go on longer , but I still love Medieval Dynasty more than Sengoku , it might be that it runs smoother than Sengoku that's why I enjoy it more , or that I hated bellwright so much that it impacts Sengoku that has the same artstyle too :D

[@Jagger-Tyr_13]

I didn't even know you could fight like that in Sengoku Dynasty. That's crazy

[@AlpacalypseMew]

Sengoku is much newer. Medieval has a three year head start on Sengoku, and wasn't feature complete or fully polished on launch either. Sengoku isn't fully feature complete yet either, it's missing the "Dynasty" bit (have a kid, and take over the Dynasty through him) though it is planned to be in the game. Medieval is better, but that's largely because it's had more time to cook. I suspect Sengoku will make some progress on your frustrations over the next few years and that this comparison will be much closer in that time. EDIT:: HA, you made this point at the end of your video. Kudos.

[@SirJayWalker]

Medieval Dynasty released way before Bellwright, but I enjoy both games!

[@shyzunk]

I have to disagree with the progression system. In medieval, it made sense as you had to do the tasks that you were getting better at. In sengoku, you have to build a random bridge and suddenly that makes you able to make certain tools in iron , while others are still bronze but you have a steel weapon or two from other arbitrary unlocks. Its very gamey and makes no sense in the world.

[@SirJayWalker]

Agree to disagree. Doing the same tasks over and over to progress is not as fun as doing objectives. Doesn't really make sense that cooking food unlocks the ability to make iron tools or armor either. I think a blend of both crafting and objectives would be the best of both worlds and make the game more fun! If it's more fun and engaging, idrc if it makes sense or not. It makes no sense that kids cant work/contribute until they're 14 and that religion is non-existent in the game, (I could go on) but that's how it is.

[@shyzunk]

Sure, waiting for villagers to farm up ten million points to unlock the mill was nit the most engaging, but still the progression could be made more logical. Right now they slapped the liberation mechanic on existing quests and reshuffled the unlocks. What I think we need in sengoku is reimagine the liberation as quests tied to the production or expertise to be gained from people of that region. This would make it less arbitrary. It would also need to be rebalanced so when you unlock iron metallurgy, you wouldn't be randomly unable to make one set ot tools just because game says so.

[@artur39111]

What you mean "two devs"? I thought it's the same dev? So basically it's coming to sengoku dynasty have more of everything. Thus some problems. Though, I hope they'll be fixed. My few points is - dialogues. In SD You can talk to any npc on the map, everyone have some story. In MD it looks like you playing zombie game. Npc have 0 emotions, 0 anything. They just walking like zombies. But, environment is prettier, yes. MD doesn't feel alive at all. And that is my main complain. Together with absence of any actions on the map. It's perfect game if you have insomnia. Nothing ever happen there. In SD my best hope it's raiding system. They promised it, and I really hope it'll be implemented.
