Return to Moria Starter Base Building (Part 1)

[@Louey7]

This is *very* different than my other videos, so let me know what you think and if you'd like to see more! (Part 2 is now up! kzbin.info/www/bejne/d5KkcnWNqcd6btE )

[@jisboncasckett5191]

I havent watched yet but i am excited. Would love to see more!

[@David-r7t1t]

The whole cavern, built on stone supports, with arrow notches for sniping hobbies below. They may attack the columns though... would be a unique build.😊

[@kingofgames908]

I'm having trouble dismantling the whole house. Pieces are floating and can't be destroyed

[@gingerbilly1396]

Would love to see more episodes

[@Mauditduparadis]

8:26 I think the stair is in the way or count as the grounds for those two floor panel

[@VampireCatLegacy]

Harth. Har-th. not Herth... that is my only peeve of a really epic vid. but hey a comment is a comment.

[@LemonMan91]

The fact that you can't do slight rotations is ridiculous in a survival game with construction. And the fact that the pre-built structures can be at angles that you can't build with is also a really poor design choice.

[@christopherpoet458]

The impression I am getting is the build function may be a more of an after thought and was not an upfront mechanic they were focused on from the start. It feels like it was added in later in development. Which, I am not going to complain about as long as they update it. So far they have with the addition of stairs to the 1st build tier. So, fingers crossed this gets some love through future patches and updates. EDIT: Just to elaborate a little, I assumed for now that the primary objective was the progression and story of the game and sub systems like building were more or less luxury additions so to speak. Again, as long as they continue to be willing to update it, I won't complain. But it needs updates.

[@vviiddeeoo]

I'm really enjoying this game but I wish you could rotate smoothly like every degree or something or even just 45 degrees would be bettter

[@christopherpoet458]

Considering in their first update they added stairs, I would not be surprised if we get additional content updates to the build system. Even edits to how it functions. Right now I am getting quite annoyed with how "fragile" buildings are. One wrong landing with a pic and half the structure dissolves. Break one wall and it acts like the rest of the supports stop existing.

[@ciroluxom6615]

​@@christopherpoet458exactly man! I'm having an existential crisis right now cuz I'm having to rebuild my base multiple times to the game forgetting the ground was a thing

[@spongebob423]

@26:10 try balconies instead of filling with half wall?

[@Louey7]

That's a good idea! I'll try next episode I record (part 3)

[@MrZurbagiu]

looking forward to more!

[@Nopsi1300]

Your cat earned you a sub :)

[@estebk]

I'm really liking the variety of different games, I think you should go for it. This game looks kinda cool, although I'm not one for playing survival stuff myself.

[@notsure6182]

it is not a good game really. it is cheaply done. seems like a console game

[@belrog905]

Looking forward to a part 2!

[@edwardmeade]

D'Artagnan does the music!!!! I might actually have to buy this just for the soundtrack. 👍👍

[@neurofusion]

Also... holding 'E' will grab everything on the ground within reach.

[@88MYTHMAN88]

Long press E to pickup everything around you :)

[@notsure6182]

why build here rather then down at the Balins camp?

[@jisboncasckett5191]

I didnt know it was possible to not have enemies in your base. Is it because of multiple hearths? I always have them raid my base and even spawn inside it sometimes. if they turned down the enemy spawns and let you spawnproof like in minecraft, this game would be inifintely better

[@JayJoStanAccount]

I found a bigger Durin's statue to repair pretty early on when exploring and it said that it doesnt allow "Shadow" to creep into the area anymore and I feel like my starter base stopped getting raided after that. Not sure if that was actually what happened but its worth looking into finding.

[@jisboncasckett5191]

you have a good point! I noticed as I advance further and further into Moria, the older areas don't get raided as much or sometimes even at all. Once I go to a new area setting a stone hearth down basically guarantees a raid@@JayJoStanAccount

[@notsure6182]

@@JayJoStanAccount what area was that?

[@JayJoStanAccount]

@notsure6182 I think everyone's map is different so it's hard to say. But it was like right before I found the elven area.

[@notsure6182]

@@JayJoStanAccount the map differs a bit, but the general gist of it stays

You're not allowed to use your left button because it's mine. It belongs to me ;)

[@BradyRay_333]

This game was released prematurely, or is simply not worth playing. The combat is bad, the building mechanics are awkward and erratic, and the level design shows constant evidence to a lack of attention to detail. I regret buying it but I'm holding out hope that it will be improved through updates. I strongly recommend if anyone is interested in this game to wait.

[@DjinnGazoo]

the build system in this game is horrible. i like the game itself.. but building houses cost me hours to fix so much shit

[@tectonpro8507]

A lot of empty chatter. The entire video could fit in 10 minutes.

[@Jedittee]

Worst survival i've ever played.

[@vviiddeeoo]

which are better? I'm not familiar with the genre

[@Jedittee]

@@vviiddeeoo i would recommend 7 days to die, but with friends. Solo suck like every survival. Terraria is good too, more viable for solo.

[@pinoygabbz]

​@@vviiddeeooValheim is good survival game too.

[@jesfest]

@@vviiddeeoo ignore the guy who says 7dtd is a good survival game. game's been in early access for 10 years and still has chickens walk underwater. Valheim is my favorite, progression is based around hunting bosses. the first boss is needed to get into the metal age for example. Has my favorite building system, and has similar combat but better than this, I find. Conan Exiles is not my jam, but I have a lot of friends who enjoy it. building system is similar to this, but works better. EXP/Level based progression with animal/people taming. Vintage Story is the most sandbox of the ones I mentioned. It's mostly like minecraft but more involved, and has a nice chunk of realism. For example, you need to melt the metals, pour them into ingot molds, let them cool, reheat them in a furnace to then shape into objects using a hammer and anvil, where you actually need to hit them in the right places. Of course I don't think Moria is terrible, its just that combat needs more punch, and the building is cancer. Took me about 60 hours to beat, not accounting for any breaks or times I left it running on the main menu. If you did want this, I would say to wait for a deep sale, or if they start adding content like they've previously mentioned they would. to put it another way, valheim is half the cost and damn good, like an 8/10. This is okay, maybe a 6 or 7/10. 7dtd is a 3 lmao. Edit: Forgot to mention project zomboid. well, its quality, but im really waiting for the next patch that overhauls the crafting. I think it will be one of my favorites at that point
