Let's Play: Farthest Frontier - Early Access! - ep 1

[@iamso211]

the entire lead up to this game ive just been thinking "man i really hope quill plays this" so hype for this series

[@IsThisRight]

It's been awhile since I've wanted Quill to play something, I'm hyped for this series. Hopefully it doesn't end up like Medieval Frontier.

[@Zilla12]

Quill is the one who got me into banished, so it's only right he plays this game.

[@ChadRhat]

But this game looks like a piece of shit…

[@samuelalexandermarkovnikov891]

I am very suspicious of someone who has a smokehouse next to a cemetary.

[@PowerRanger83]

Thank you for the series! I love the game already just being half way through the first episode. I would really like to see Farthest Frontier regularly on you channel! Thank you for creating content for it!

[@arevolvingdoor3836]

Anyone else first watch quill in 2013 when he was playing banished?

[@dinoj2082]

The year one necessities of any town: Housing, Food, Firewood and a Cemetery - very much like Banished!

[@tyghe_bright]

To move a building, it's the yellow button in the upper right corner. Fishing always works through the winter, and lakes always freeze. (I guess they cut a hole in the ice.)

[@franzfanz]

A root cellar right next to the graveyard... Oh Quill, never change.

[@goosegod6]

Was just about to say this :D

[@tempest82027]

underground people storage right next to underground vegetable storage, makes perfect sense!

[@Pixelkvist]

Watching Quill play this takes me back to right before Banished first came out and I was completely addicted to watching your videos of the game! :D

[@_i_a_n_]

Commenting for engagement so hopefully quill will continue this series 🤞

[@OrrgunUK]

I’ve played this game for several hours and had no idea you could change the work area! That makes so much more sense

[@LutorAlx]

the moving building is next to the recycle buton uper right

[@smada36]

I bought Banished after watching you play it. I may have to buy this as well. Looks good.

[@dioarturo4328]

I love watching these types of games 👌🏻 please keep them coming 🙂

[@SteelGod_BUL]

This game deserves a lot of attention. Happy to see you enjoying it!

[@grooviegroves4683]

Can't wait for the rest of this series, was on the fence about this game but it seems quite enticing. Stop hurting my wallet quill 😉

[@JoeMadds0]

Sweet! I've been waiting to see your play this. Thanks Quil!

[@BlackShadow1991]

I am contemplating buying this, so thanks for doing a let's play :D This is looking pretty solid.

[@kongfeet81]

I’ve had my eye on this game for awhile now, glad to see it getting attention

[@DeadHawk23]

Pretty sure the move building icon he's looking for is in the top right.

[@joelhowe]

Super excited for this series! Hopefully the game is sufficiently optimized to let you grow your city to a reasonable size. I look forward to watching!

[@ForbiddenFollyFollower]

Quill was the guy who got me into TW Warhammer.

[@billn.1318]

This game looks like a mix of Grand Ages Rome and Imperium Romanum but the setting takes place in some medieval-esque layout. Can't wait for Manor Lords to come out though.

[@mercster]

Hey man, I really like your videos. I've watched a bunch of your EU4 videos to try to wrap my head around the game. But I still can't play it... it's not for want of trying and I do what everyone says ("Just watch tutorials man.") But I can't figure it out. I'm a relatively intelligent 45 year old guy, I'm well read, I know how to work with computer interfaces at all levels... You said something around the 2:24 mark of this video that made me think. You said something like "OK before the video I've played a couple games of about two hours each so far, just to try to learn the early phase, try to figure out a little bit of an optimal way to get started." Maybe that's what I need to see? Everyone posts these "tutorials" that do the following: a) Go over (sometimes excessively) the UI and basic concepts. That's great. b) Then they kind of like... effortlessly and with no friction, slide into late early game/early mid-game. Do you know what I mean? There's not enough failure, false starts, disasters in early game. Then I could watch someone else fail, instead of seeing them have an easy early game and then tackle these more complicated mid-game issues that are way out of my current pay grade. Maybe that's how I learn, failure. 😂 It's certainly how I bumble through many technical issues in life (shell scripting/tooling, etc.) So hey man, maybe you know some other channels. I probably know of all the big common "EU4 tutorial" channels, and my Google-fu is strong. Maybe you know some "Let's learn to not be horrible at this game together" videos or something. And buddy, this is NOT a criticism of you... this is entirely my fault, and I'm asking someone I respect for help. Anyway this game looks cool, I have a friend who is playing it a lot. Cheers mate.

[@Whitakerguy]

Always great to see you playing the same game I am Quill! I wish you well on your settlement adventures. Don’t pet the bears.

[@6Planet]

I lagged my way up to a large city with 600 population... lag started around 200 pop. When raiders attack it's like 125 at a time and my framerate drops to unplayable levels. It might be fun to play again with a focus on defense and avoiding growth because you can grow till the lag is unbearable.

[@6Planet]

@@TheHuffmanator I don't really think that's the answer with this game... I see people with some of the best hardware you can get still having an issue with stuttering. The devs are going to have to fix the patfinding code or whatever is causing it.

[@falicito1710]

Looking really forward to this series :)

[@Ylmorko]

finally I have been waiting for this thank you quill

[@brucehilton1662]

Fresh meat cures scurvy. Note Amundson's run to the south pole. His crew ate his dogs on the way back. Scott, trying to compete with him, died just short of his last cache, likely because of scurvy.

[@acediasteffson7912]

Finally You Started This game 🙌 I will look forward to part 2 :)

[@jackielinde7568]

Boars and wolves and bears! Oh, my! Boars and wolves and bears!

[@marktisdale8058]

5 x5 is smallest farm, as you noted. 5 x6 is largest servicable by one person.

[@TNTNinja2]

This colony starting with a wild animal attack because quill didn’t know something is very on brand I feel

[@gnyrinn]

"Being the mayor of Dysenteria" is now my favourite not-really-euphemism for suffering intestinal distress.

[@jimkavanagh1293]

I've been curious about this game. Great that you've decided to take it for a test run.

[@wyvernliberatus8474]

Even meat has enough vitamin C. The is problem if food has reasonable amounts of glucose and low vitamin C, as glucose is very similar in structure to vitamin C and can block the vitamin C absorbers or somethin? Societies where people eat a lot of meat stuffs but little carbohydrate do not all get scurvy. The reason they had it in the navy was the diet of salted meat and low vitamin but glucose containing ships biscuit. In the gulag, they had very low nutrient gruel and very high glucose but low vitamin C bread, as well as being generally starved and not having enough of anything anyway. The is a section of Gulag Archipelago all about the symptoms of various deficiencies that they would develop.

[@DaDunge]

26:30 Fairly certain you need to eat vagule fresh fruits or vegtables. Meat and fish won't prevent scruvy.

[@Pixie1001.]

It's so weird the devs pivoted from Grim Dawn to a hardcore colony sim like this, but I'm definitely curious to see if they were able to pull it off :o

[@xgalarion8659]

The engine looks about the same. Maybe they just found another use for it.

[@fruitpasghetti4639]

love this game and would love to see your take on it, even in early access. Keep going perty please

[@Alius187]

was waiting for you to start a series^^ looking forward to many more episodes

[@AlexBergPlays]

Ok, I've liked, I've subscribed for more than a few years (since before I met you in Stockholm), now I've made a comment. I've sent a link to my best man. Can you publish the test now? 🙃 Great stuff quill18, looking forward to seeing the rest in due time.

[@delusional500]

I found quill when I needed help with Banished, so this is almost like going full circle.

[@witchfynder_finder]

I had a feeling this series was coming. Looking forward to this~

[@allastra347]

I'm concerned that you setup the root seller next to the graveyard... XD

[@Phillerb]

This game looks great! Can't wait to see it in its final form.

[@josephdurham4950]

i cant stop thinking bout this game, but havent played anything like it. im a little worried i might be to hard but ill keep watching stuff to find out

[@rachaelconners6496]

Is that clicking sound effect for roads and placement toggleable? It's quite unpleasant. Super excited to see you play this one Quil

[@MrAncientCulture]

Great to see that you are back to a banish style game. Did you let the map on random on purpose? Or are you not aware that you can pick from 4 map types?

[@AlleonoriCat]

Quill, you might want to look at early access game Foundation! It's a town builder without grid system where you can design your own buildings like town halls, inns, churches and castles (using parts, some of which are locked at the start and unlocked by playing). It was very relaxing and pretty-looking.

[@banana_cabana]

I'm pretty sure aKiss4Luck has played this, so he's probably aware of it.

[@TheSpecialJ11]

26:32 Maybe your villagers are ice fishers.

[@pterrok5495]

re your scurvy comment: Yeah, in particular, fresh red meat has Vitamin C and lots of times your villagers are eating that vs preserved/smoked meat, and should NOT be getting the scurvy warning, but they still might as the game doesn't know about it.

[@jonaslauritsen7326]

So a root cellar next to the graveyard? Seems like the two would compete for available earth to dig :D

[@swapsplat]

This just seems like an updated version of Banished. Which I love. I'll probably check it out.

[@chalor182]

Really stoked to watch this

[@1Slewfoot]

I'll look forward to this being continuance for a bit.

[@Tanty70]

Seriously, did Quill just put the Graveyard next to the Smokehouse. Reminds me of the film Good Morning Vietnam and joke about the restaurant next to the dog pound

[@brucehilton1662]

deer will definitely eat everything, food, flowers, etc. Bambi be Gone!

[@ordinarypeople801]

I just discover this game about 3 days ago. It is a brilliant successor to Banished and a good game to spend some time until Manor Lords came up. :) Still needs lots of work. There are many thinks to be improved, but there's a potential. Cheers!

[@DeadHawk23]

I was a bit confused when I played the game. It seemed that the root cellar didn't actually keep food longer than the normal storehouse. Idk I played for like 2 hours.

[@Plague_Doc22]

I hope you play cult of the lamb..seems like the sillyness that is right up your alley.

[@ellaser93]

How does a lake being froze over prevent fishing? Asking as a Minnesotan.

[@BBoogieman]

Love your content! Great channel! 😀😀

[@JohnStro]

The others are fine, but Quill is the drug I needed!

[@WulfgarOpenthroat]

Oh wow, I bought Banished in 2015 and have been meaning to get around to playing it ever since. @.@

[@easykill2k16]

Been waiting for a Banished inspired game, this looks really promising

[@olemlund]

woop a qill video on a game i want to see XD sorry but last few games have not been for me, still though keep on doing good work. love moste of it XD

[@kirasmith7738]

oh yes Boars can be very agressive and deadly, just ask Robert Baratheon...

[@ArnulfoTAvina]

Any good pre built PC brand that you guys want to recommend me? Please enlighten me.

[@TehWhimsicalWhale]

Is this possibly the Age of Empires + City Skylines crossover I've been waiting ages for????????????

[@CrossBreedTacoHD]

When you and the boys have to jump out of your wagons to fist fight some boars.

[@lonergothonline]

green "upvote"? isn't that symbol usually referred to as a chevron?

[@unholycritter3448]

Thanks for the video enjoyed the information

[@mENTALdRIFTER]

'Luckily, nobody got rabies' Lmao, count your blessings

[@QALibrary]

This is the new banshed?

[@bradbarbee2393]

Casually places root cellar next to graveyard 🤔

[@mathias1877]

Please Mr Quill can we have some more?

[@pinkfishplays7493]

Plz!!!

[@kalyanbratakar7354]

Is this game multiplayer?

[@MichaelCaliri]

it needs a little map instead of scrolling all over

[@WulfgarOpenthroat]

Don't worry, Quill, even if you're eaten by the wildlife, you can still give *them* dysentery. 😛

[@jackielinde7568]

While I think this town's going to have some PR problem when it comes to tourism, It's better than Hepatitropolis.

[@devriesp9000]

This game really reminds me of Banished

[@kiffar]

Why does this UI remind me so much of Rift/LotRO

[@Robalogot]

I have played quite a bit of it and love a lot about this game, but boy it took me hours to generate a decent map. And I wasn't looking for the perfect map with every resource in abundance.

[@koolkiop]

Good stuff!

[@PyrusFlameborn]

Banished is old enough to have a spiritual successor? What?

[@Nexus804]

I'm only six minutes in but is this just banished but with goals?

[@danilooliveira6580]

the game is going to a great direction, but the amount of bugs is kinda annoying, the pops also tend to be extremely dumb sometimes, there are also some basic quality of life that the game is missing. hopefully the game will get a good support throughout the years and not be abandoned.

[@joerogers6043]

Should have built your village on top of the hill

[@invisiblec0la]

wooooooooooooooo was waiting for this!!!!

[@chicotski342]

do post more episodes, please!

[@KapitanPompa]

looks exactly like rise to ruins

[@Malins2000]

Hey Quill - Check out Capitan of Industry

[@rihards5067]

Sorry I didn't watch the full video, but after you said its successor to banished I just went to download and play it straight away xD

[@rickyricardo2006]

How did you like this game? is it worth it?

[@rihards5067]

@@rickyricardo2006 Feels there is some work that can be done on it for smoother experience. But its exactly what you expect however, it is very similar to Banished. You can select to play with enemies attacking you or just have a peaceful building. For me personally im looking forward as they improve it. Generally speaking if you liked banished you can enjoy this game.

[@andrefiremaster]

this game has a false advertisement name, because this frontier clearly isn't farther than space, the final frontier

[@juurika22]

i wish there was a button to make all resources infinite

[@rivzxxx3490]

You can tell this guy didn’t grow up playing Age of Empires.

[@Think666_]

This seems like Ostriv.

[@astraBinary]

walls?

[@ColinusGames]

um is anyone seeing pixelation on the video it's self hard to see

[@wyvernliberatus8474]

The game looks great but I can't get past the irritation of the fact that 'farthest' is not a real world. It is a corruption of 'furthest', based on the assumption that it should look and sound closer to 'far' for reasons. The sound and sight of this word grates on me.

[@rivzxxx3490]

“The boars are predators” 😑
