The dev statement that came out that basically said this isn't going to be Total War, or Crusader Kings, but Banished with some combat on the side, that made me happy. That's all I want. A modern successor to Banished. What a stellar city builder that was. And still is.

[@RachelMcCarn]

Yes! I've put hundreds of hours into banished, been playing since it's release. It's one of those games that I just pick up and can spend an entire evening playing just to relax. I never try and do crazy mod villages either.. but it's just so perfect for how I like to play games.

[@Liednard]

Amen to that! After Banished, all city builder/survival games just reused the very same systems with minimal improvement, changing the setting and production chains... Very hyped for this one :) I also hope it comes with a better AI than what we usually see

[@Livvvid]

I only played banished for the first time last year and couldn't get enough. Despite its popularity and many attempts, I feel like no other game came close. But I haven't tried manor lords yet.

I played this for first time today after having it on wishlist for a few years, and honestly I was amazed at it, spent hours the first day just messing with it, no bugs yet , very solid game, I cant wait to see what it turns into, like a peaceful city builder with some small skirmish tactics which really at the time period, it was nobles vs nobles and this was the majority of combats were small skirmishes amongst land owners, to me this game is already starting to scratch a long overdue itch, and the fact it was mainly one guy just shows how dedication and passion for a project can become amazing and these bigger companies should start focusing more on things like this than how fast they can release the "next" big title just for more money.

This game is Stronghold+Banished+Total War and I love all 3 of them and all 3 of them had something missing in them, and that was the other two games. Now someone made a fusion of all 3 games and it is awesome. Strongold lacked battle tactics and deeper survival aspects. Banished lacked anything military. Total War lacked anything city building and micro managing your town. I am very much ready for this game. 🙌

What do you mean medieval buildings were not elaborate? Compared to laying hollow brick over hollow brick in a straight line and few corners and what ever they do in USA with paper walls or whatever, medieval buildings had very nice looking wooden beams filled with dirt/wheat /clay mix and white washed with lime which decorate the house , overhanging walls, different shapes , different materials from foundation to the roof top .Also combat isn't just spice , you use your villagers which are used in the chain of production as soldiers meaning if any of them die will be like throwing a bunch of wrenches in a cog wheel
