Manor Lords: Building My ULTIMATE City!

Today, we're finishing a multi-video journey on which we will be building historically accurate and authentic city designs in Manor lords, a highly anticipated city-building game! I will explain how the game works as I play and explain some historical details as we go!

Manor Lords on Steam: store.steampowered.com/app/13...
Manor Lords is a strategy game that allows you to experience the life of a medieval lord. Grow your starting village into a bustling city, manage resources and production chains, and expand your lands through conquest.
Inspired by the art and architecture of late 14th century Franconia, Manor Lords prioritizes historical accuracy wherever possible, using it to inform gameplay mechanics and visuals alike. Common medieval tropes are avoided in favor of historical accuracy, in order to make the world feel more authentic, colorful, and believable.

And so - it's over! I really love how this city came out and am looking forward to future content! Thank you for watching!

[@miracletortoise6224]

Congrats on the 100k, my man. You must be one proud Bavarian.

[@granola661]

How do I get the old patch with the ability to make multiple garrison towers?

[@NicNac723]

Yeah, massive congratulations to you man! Its a very well deserved achievement :) I hope you revisit Manor Lords once they introduce more features like actual castle construction, new maps, and maybe even other cultures!

[@JJMB27]

I am so sad this is over.

That part where you came out of the main gate and looked down the valley was just wonderful. Well done on the town - and what an amazing game!

[@OneProudBavarian]

Yeah, I was really happy when i saw how the valley sits before the town!

[@HenrySkalitz1403]

I hope they'll add a map editor in the future. I would love to recreate the entire map of KCD in this game.

Dude, the video is in English, do it's pretty rude of you to just start speaking german out of the blue.

[@dessieangel1021]

@@SucculentSpaz bro, people can speak whatever language they want. That’s why theres a google translation under comments of other languages. It’s not hard

[@YaBoiGibbons]

@@SucculentSpazHow dare you attempt to shame someone for speaking their native language. Considering the content creator liked the comment in German, seems like he doesn’t care if he gets comments in German. Try to use your critical thinking skills before you leave these stupid comments.

Im so into your videos my gf started beeing jealous of you 😅

[@jimcrookers9628]

Imagine when sieges become implemented. Seeing another army come to attack your castle/city or going to attack a castle or city would be epic

[@spamfilter32]

What a wonderful series. Can't wait to see what you build when tier 3 churches and tier 2/3 castles/walls are implemented.

[@fletaun]

let imagine that the wide road was built in anticipation of royal visit from Louis the German in his effort to strengthen his position in East Francia as he style himself King of Bavaria

[@MrTalis]

Bro dropper this banger out of nowhere

[@p.bckman2997]

The very early alfa version of the game had city walls, a larger manor and a cathedral of sorts. When Slavig Magic igets to implement them in the game, cites like these will be amazing beautiful!

[@JustHereForCatVideos]

I was thinking, would it be possible in a future campaign to build an area that only contains a monastery? Could be fortified, too.

[@kaades_]

You could possibly jank out a monastery-like building but rn I dont think its doable Would be really fun to do a monastery region tho, I personally love the way they look and their logical designs

[@OneProudBavarian]

The problem really just is a lack of building variety - we'll have to wait for more variations to make it into the game, because at that point we can probably assemble something that feels like a monastery even if that were to not actually be a building in the game!

[@ashlandky62]

Well done! 100k! Don't stop this series!

[@vale214]

I was just watching your manor lords series, this is amazing!! I hope you continue making content of this game the more updates come, you are actually so goated at this

[@sicknarty9457]

Congrats on 100k best Manor Lord's playthrough out there ( there's a lot of them )

[@martinpetersen2888]

Plz don´t let this be the last of Manor Lords on your channel. It has been magical to watch you ! So plz keep on playing - I will miss watching your videos every evening. Grüsse aus Dänemark :)

Manor Lords as it is needs a lot more content. I'm sure it will get there, tho, as the foundation that is there is already plently satisfying. I hope you will come back when gets some big updates OPB! I loved learning about history with your content! It was by far what made your content superior to everyone else's.

[@ImTerasHD]

Congrats on 100k! :D Found your channel through this series, bit sad it's over but I'm excited to see what will fill the slot ^^

I've learned so much with this series; thank you so much for doing it. With this you've earned a special place amongst my favorite content creators on this platform. I keep recommending you to my friends; such knowledge and beautiful city planning in one series is truly unique.

[@Arcill1]

Such a great series and what a worthy finale! It's been a daily highlight to follow and I very much look forward to see what you'll do once the game updates with more structures and mechanics such as castles, cathedrals, new maps and cavalry! Thank you very much for the entertainment!

[@madelinejameswrites]

Sad to see the series end but I've absolutely loved following along! I've learned so much and had a blast!

Gratz to 100k 🙌

[@baronvonschnellenstein2811]

Thank you @OPB for an entertaining and informative series. Really enjoyed all your historic + regional inspired builds and light RP. 🍻 (For me, the most "charming" / appealing build was the ahnendorf in the prior series, but I think that has a lot to do with the building assets being a "best match" for that size of town). Looking up the hill to the new city - the silhouette really "nails it", as well as the view at ground level up the main road to the market. The throngs of people doing their things really sells the bustle of a major town. From bird's eye view, the new town in Sitte looks more densely populated and you can see that within 50-100 years the twin towns in Sitte merging over the hill, and then by the end of the 19th century, Sitte and the new city merging into a metropolis as the valley between them becomes more heavily populated.

[@danieljames1510]

Some things I'd like to see implemented are: An upkeep cost for animals (Oxen/Mules etc) and Farms/Vegetable Gardens. Either in the Form of a Ressource, Seeds Food, or at least a monthly Yearly payment. It would also be great if Trade had a set amount for each resource. If you import something after X amount it could cost more, same if u sell something, after X amount it's worth less. All that could then play into different difficulty settings. At the moment it feels a little to easy to overproduce and the point of overproduction comes a little to fast. A lvl 3 House with a Backyard production could have the option to become a Shop instead of housing a second family, generating more wealth in the process. The ability to plant single trees, bushes fences for astetic reason of course. It's early access so only time will tell and patience is a virtue. Sorry for the long comment and thanks for the entertainment. 😂

[@HEKVT]

This is so beautiful, hope you'll return to this build if the dev adds more structures.

[@rensd12]

love the game so much i cant wait for futute updates

lovely build man.

[@Captain_U_]

I'm pretty sure you were allowed so many garrison towers because the game allows you one per every region you control and you had many "unspent" ones due to your recent conquests

[@Max-ju6be]

7:38 I found that if you place a marketplace along the skinny road, then delete the marketplace you can get the thicker road very easily.

[@sergiofasano92]

You hit it!!! 100k!!! I’m with you since you had 6k and always wanted to see this channel getting this far and beyond. You are truly charismatic and your content is so fun, informative, creative. What I call a perfect KZbinr! Well done my legend! ⬜️🟦⬜️🟦⬜️🟦⬜️🟦

[@Stranglehold138]

Re: Straßendörfer: IIRC you also find them along where the Roman roads went. There's a ton in Rheinland-Pfalz that I've seen.

[@blablubb4553]

On the steam forums someone claimed that they had cleared a bit of forest using the "deletion by field" method. Planting a field or pasture over the forest that contained the berries, in anticipation that the berries would be deleted as well, but the berry bushes remained. They were then able to build a road around the berry bushes and integrate them into the city they wanted to build there... Maybe worth an experiment in another video?

[@sandervanelslander9964]

It would be great to see an avenue road split in the middle with bushes or trees, some roundabouts, shrines. Could fit in the narrative as the roman's did things like that during their occupation.

[@duuk1597]

Happy 100k :)🎉

[@lucasgrangeiro4225]

Wow, this is great! Imagine when the dev release the city walls and siege weapons! This Town reminds me something of Kingdom Come Deliverance, idk maybe Rattay, but bigger? I just made a town inspired in Talmberg ahaha

[@OniBoy02]

Congratulations on 100k.

[@donaldmeulemans6458]

Das war echt klasse!

[@metalvox89]

I am very amused at the lord freely running around to admire the fighting and killing lol. I haven’t thought about running around in battle

[@diegojanoti]

MASTERPIECE

[@FrostRare]

The enemy lord is so bold as to join his men on the battlefield with neither sword nor shield, adorned in a flamboyant red cape! He is taking pleasure in the sight of our demise!!

[@SaibotNB]

Since this was going to be the super-mega-city video, I thought this video would be about 2 hours long... I was completely ready to watch the 2 hours 😂🤷‍♂

[@zesthok4548]

Impressive!

[@rivox1009]

This looks like Roman Castrum, with its two main orthogonal roads, the Decumanus Maximus and the Cardo Maximus. It would be completely reasonable to have a Roman fort there, up on the hill, near a water stream, in the Bavaria/Swebia region to protect against the German incursions in the Empire. Lore-wise you could say this was build buy the emperor Augustus to fortify the limes, then fell into disrepair during the early medieval period and got rebuilt thanks to the flourishing trade passing through, as the high elevation and walls would be perfect to protect both citizens and merchants from any incursions or lords. Ragensburg would fit the build fairly well, as it was also a castrum part of the limes with a cardo and Decumanus, although I doubt we could compare that puny stream with the Danube. Augsburg was also another Roman fort/colony in the area, with a much smaller river passing through.

[@Ballin4Vengeance]

It would be nice if you could build even DENSER than this so you really get the feel of a packed city, house next to house

[@neobaggins3718]

The fact the main fat road wasn’t centered hurts me a little. But it still looks awesome.

[@Zzokker]

Lol, Selbitz is actually a neighbouring village where my grandmother lives.

[@dogukan127]

This is the way this game is meant to be played and I am not sure even the developer knew that his game was meant to be played this way

[@user-nn9wb9mp8h]

looks awsome! didint the makers say that they are in wip with the city wall?

[@Alexanderwilhelm1]

Danke für diese entzückende Serie, die auch wirklich mitreißend kommentiert wurde! Ich selbst versuche mich an einer richtig großen Stadt mit vielen kleinen und engen Gässchen, verschiedenen Vierteln, etc... Dieser "Schönbau"-Versuch fordert mich vor allem dadurch, weil ich möglichst verschieden aussehende Häuser haben möchte und es aber leider diese eine bevorzugte Hausfront gibt. Auch das Verhindern von sichtbaren Hinterhöfen ist nicht einfach. Ob ich diese wirklich netten breiten Straßen noch irgendwie einfügen kann? Wäre nett weitere Beiträge vor allem in diese Richtung zu sehen!

[@thedudeWG]

Manor Lords needs to include wider roads as an option. My military has such a difficult time passing through my regular town roads and always walks ALL THE WAY around it, usually arriving too late to deal with bandits or get to the battlefield in time to secure or defend territory claims.

[@TheSoxor123]

You need to plan ahead when considering roads. I, too, had a single road all around my town, but as soon as I added a secondary road, it made my towns more efficient.

[@bigsarge2085]

Manor Lords, we hardly knew ye!

[@Jakeurb8ty82]

I think once a city reaches a certain size where moving goods from production to use and sale locations would be prohibitive i imagine tanneries and such move into the city. somebody made a guide on steam that also talks about european prevailing winds and how that plays out with city design, basically people live on the west ish side and smelly 'industry' workshops and crafts on the east where the wind blows too.

[@aubreysong]

Yes! Finally upload! 🎉😂

[@markushuber214]

Die Stadtmauer hast Du gut hinbekommen, sieht super aus. Aber die Strassen baue ich nicht so breit, maximal auf die breite von 2 normalen Wegen, gerade das Gewusel und die Enge ist ja das, was mittelalterliche Städte ausmacht.

[@matheoaaslidhandstad3355]

When you build little villages isolated around in the same region, how do you control and balance the market with variety, for example, how do you get enough food variety when it is only 2 natural food sources? Just wondering since I want to do the same👍

[@lordsleepyhead]

Now fill up the rest of the landscape with fields, pastures and forests! Make the whole region super productive! Lol

[@Sk8mafia1995]

Hey there. looks awesome! Is the town (all of the houses) still accessable after building the walls around the town?

[@OneProudBavarian]

Yep!

[@Sk8mafia1995]

@@OneProudBavarian Ok nice. Was this patched or do i need to rebuild all of the buildings for it to work?

[@OneProudBavarian]

You have to do the following in this exact order (did this in this video also, but did not fully explain it) 1. Build your manor 2. Plan out the wall in the castle planner, but then just press "close" - do not press "commit" 3. build all of your buildings 4. Build the wall If you do it in this order, buildings inside of the wall will still remain clickable and accessible!

[@BiglerSakura]

Important question: Does the game allow to build a castle in multiple stages? At first, I built a manor building and 4 garrison towers (with a mod allowing that) without walls, just to secure a bigger retinue. But when after that I tried to connect the towers with walls, the Castle Planner charged me not only the number of planks for the added walls, but also all the construction materials that I had already spent to build the towers, as if I was going to rebuild the whole thing from scratch, though I didn't move the towers. Maybe it's a glitch caused by the mod?
