Manor Lords - Gameplay Overview | Medieval RTS/Citybuilder

[@oerwout10]

holy crap i love how when you build buildings on a curved road that their properties still connect. and that you can freely draw the borders of farmland!

[@ManorLords]

Glad you noticed, that took a lot of work :)

[@merciah]

I totally agree, I can't tell you how many times I've played other games and been annoyed that I lost some territory because the road went somewhere my buildings couldn't just because of a curve.

"Indie" Looks better than RTS games of billion-dollar companies

[@79794]

Because billion-dollar companies only care how they can milk the most profit from players with the least efforts put in. Indie are true gamers at core. That's the difference.

[@ValahulDeLaRovine]

yes, it really does, but we have to see how much content they will have with first versions I think I will buy it even if the content will be low, I really like this paradigm of rts games, especially the training part of the units. I hope there will be some skill level in different areas that can be improved with training

This game looks utterly fascinating, and the concept of combining a village/town building aspect with an RTS game sounds very appealing and unique. The visuals, from the change in seasons, to the buildings and villages, and even the distant landscapes, not to mention the "animation" of the people is absolutely stunning!

Because it's a scam, slavic magic is the name of the publisher.. Should raise some alarms right off the bat, and it's being marketed in the same way as every other Eastern European "video game", wishlist on steam, failed "verified" youtubers praising it in the comments, some would even say it seems like most of the comments are paid. Unless enough kids add the game onto their steam wishlist it'll never see the light of day Granted, it does look a bit better than your average slavic scam but still nowhere near as good as people claiming in the comments.

[@athenaeum4030]

Congrats, this looks very promising. The key seems to be making a fluid transition between city building and real time battles. It would be cool to have an in-depth system for outfitting peasants and troops that ties in with buildings and natural resources (iron, leather). You could even have artisans, so if your local blacksmith is a master, then your soldiers can benefit from better weapons and armour. But also the opposite, so poor artisans means lower quality equipment. Stables and quality of horses are another mechanic that could be explored. If you have a devoted priest, then your troops will have higher morale - you could even have priests go into battle - warrior priests were a thing during this period. I think making a sort of feedback between these two systems - city building and battles - would make for really engaging gameplay. And I love the idea of mustering peasants, whoever is on hand, to defend the village. It reminds me of the defenders of Helms Deep, a rag tag group of boys and old men who manage to defeat an organised conquering force. More customisation of this home guard, based on the unique details of your settlement would be really interesting.

It's definitely an interesting change from games like total war that focus on a "Rock-Paper-Scissors" type of strategy. Instead of being limited to certain unit types, you can equip troops with the tools needed for the environment, weather, and terrain.

Ostriv has one of most unique settings out of all city builders, I love the atmosphere.

[@thomassutphin7904]

@@ManorLords His approach is amazing, the attention to detail, etc, I love it. What really caught my eye at first with Manor Lords was how realistic it looked. I honestly thought I was looking at a photo of a medieval village at first. Being a Medieval Historian, I love what I am seeing.

[@shelbyseelbach9568]

@@thomassutphin7904 being a medieval historian you HONESTLY thought you were looking at a PICTURE of a medieval village? You may need to look into the history of the camera a little bit.

@@shelbyseelbach9568 Wow, my apologies for complimenting a game developer. I'll know better next time :/

[@shelbyseelbach9568]

You could simply compliment them without insulting your own intelligence. Seems like it would make more sense. Although, I see you have a flair for being overdramatic, so probably not.

This game is proof of how important passion is before money and opportunity. Thank you so much for making the game that I have dreamed of since I was little. ♥

[@shotwaffel2642]

I would love to know how you started your journey in creating this absolute masterpiece. On first glance I can imagine the passion, man hours, & considerations to emersion that is put into the game. only from a few clips. I will be wish listing this on steam, liking, subscribing & leaving a comment. If you are reading this YOU SHOULD TOO.

[@ManorLords]

Wow thank you. You're way too kind! To answer your question, it was just a hobby for me, that got out of hand. Thanks for supporting!

@@ManorLords I hope this hobby of yours sells well and takes you wherever you’d like to go. I hope you maintain the freedom to create your vision - as you already know by the fans of your work, you’re not alone in your vision.

The scene of militia gathering on the spot looks fantastic and thrilling. No games have ever tried this type of military unit creation.

[@blessanabey8386]

Can't believe I've never heard of this game, this looks awesome good job.

[@ManorLords]

Thanks, glad you like it!

[@carny15]

I've spent 15 hours playing the demo. You sir managed to hook me like no other game in a very looooooong time. Hopefully we'll get to play this game sometime next year. I've been following the development for a long time now and was amazed how well the demo worked. Take your time, keep up the good work, you have created something very special that a lot of people have been asking for for years.

I didnt see it but I know just one thing, the hype is real and its consuming my soul! 😲😅

The like to dislike ratio is huge! Fantastic work!

[@ManorLords]

Thank you! People are so supportive, I'm very very grateful

[@billynugroho6328]

I never really liked medieval games, space sci-fi and steampunks are my thing. But this game looks like it might finally turn me into a believer: the ambience, the apparent simplicity, yet the scale of it... Please make this work!

[@joseeftindog7870]

I'm a simple man. I see medieval gameplay, I subscribed!

[@ManorLords]

Thanks for subbing!

[@neokhan9717]

Interesting Anno+Guild+Stronghold mix - Take my money!

[@justkris6461]

I take a week of work to play this. Concept sounds fantastic. Build up towns and have real battles. Is it possible to build castles and so in later stages? Keep up the good work

[@ManorLords]

Not yet, but it is planned. Thanks!

[@republicgalaxy4348]

Adding onto this game. What would be nice is that units or even mercenaries vary in stats and skills based upon the location or the kingdom or land they come from. For instance recruiting mercenaries from rural and isolated tribal lands, you get special bonuses. I dont know just an idea i had thought of when looking at the map and the unit types.

[@tylorianfan8873]

Perhaps militia or retinues from wealthier territories with blacksmiths have better armor, something like that?

[@julietatotoronavarro6704]

Suggest it! The game has a community feedback page ;)

[@Aphorism89]

Only learnt about it this year and I am looking forward to it. I will definitely get it when it comes out and spread the word :-) We need more games like this... or better said, developers!

[@teaser6089]

This is going to be so fricking EPIC!

[@gatehousegames8811]

Looks like a great strategy game is coming! Always nice to see this awesome era come to life. Keep up the good work⚔️

This seems like a solid and healthy approach on reviving the strategy genre into gaming industry. I am really excited and willing to pay a lot for this heavily realistic looking medieval experience.

Reviving? What rock have you been living under?

[@matthiuskoenig3378]

[@Ev3rmoving]

​@@matthiuskoenig3378 Oh yeah? Then explain how did TW: Three Kingdoms have 190k concurrent players on launch day? Strategy genre is not dead, solid games are selling better than ever. It's just that the genre is also filled incompetent studios that keep pumping out absolute duds, mostly due to entry barrier being lower than ever before.

[@SoundTrackJ]

So its basically medieval dynasty, AoE, Stronghold and Total war at the same time... I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@rinflame44]

The Settlers on steroids with extra historical accuracy!

[@bukvajzr]

total war + Knights and merchants + Simcity = banger game :D
