Vintage Story Guide - 1.16 - Episode 53: Finishing the Foundry with Catwalks and Crucibles!

- In this episode, we start our second batch of steel in the cementation furnaces, and then we get down to business! These chisels aren't going to wear themselves down to nubs, and I have a feeling our foundry can help with that! The foundry needs a wall, some greenery, and an interior, so let's get to it!

The great thing about games with small communities is just how much soul they have compared to larger brands, and how much more personal related channels and content creators feel. It's a real nostalgia trip to the old days of RUclips.
Yeah it's pretty nice to be able to have conversations and not have a million of them! :D
I am glad Kurazarrh's plosives are not an anti tank mine anymore
Hehe. My solution isn't perfect, but it works for the most part!
Interesting take on the lore.
Personally, my working theory is that we're dealing with the aftermath of a medieval, alchemy-based AI project gone wrong, that messed with the flow of time and caused the rot or rather, the rust, by weakening the barrier between our world and the rust world.
But then again, you've probably read more lore than I have.
As usual, I am in awe of your talent for creating structures that feel real and lived in. I just cant match it.
Aww, thank you! Keep at it; I think you'll get a feel for building structures that you enjoy living in and being around! :)
I got into gardening in the summer of 2021 and even though ive enjoyed growing things for years, it never became serious until now. I then joined some FB groups that trade seeds and now I am coming up on 1000 varieties of seed. I've traded with 13 countries and almost 2/3rds of the US states. I guess you could say I love what I do.
That's pretty cool! I've started doing some gardening in a little patch I have out back. My family and neighbors almost always buy too many plants and seeds, so I end up with a mishmash of fun leftovers. It works pretty well! :D
Thank you.
I watch these videos between working, since my broke artist ass was working from home before it was cool. I want to say that this playthrough is exactly my kind of thing, and I'm glad I found it. I'm so used to either hyper-energetic creators appealing to young audiences, or long-winded, meandering playthroughs without much structure, or which take too long to get to the point. I subbed when I realized you make neither of those things, but also, because you're a builder like I am, have the kind of deadpan sense of humor I appreciate, and are very easy to listen to. It's a shame the videos so far do not reach more than 200 likes.
Edit: Also, you're just a really interesting person and it shocks me how often you randomly bring up something I know about that I assume is niche or forgotten, or at least something I'd never expect to hear come up in s series like this. (Ex: a Steins;Gate reference, haha.)
:D Thank you for such a kind comment! I'm really glad you're enjoying my creations here on the channel.
Your comment is also some great feedback on the way I designed the series--I explicitly wanted it to blend tutorial-style how-tos, as well as survival-oriented Let's Plays, and it sounds like I'm hitting the right notes. So, thanks for letting me know how I'm doing!
As for bringing up niche/forgotten things... I'm like... really old. I think I lost count of the years after I turned 250 or so. ;P Nah but seriously, I grew up with a SNES and generally got at least one console of each generation (though usually only one console of each generation), so a lot of that stuff is just baked into my life at this point!
@@Kurazarrh Pretty sure by this point we're around the same generation tbh, though I grew up with PC gaming until the playstation so most of my early knowledge is like, H.E. games, point and click games like LOOM and Toren's Passage, a bunch of edutainment games, Chip's Challenge, and those tonka sandbox/activity games haha.
But yes, I do enjoy this series a lot. Especially the fine chisel work that makes it apparent you care about authenticity. I can sort of imagine you get a lot of references for builds and the like, and I appreciate the attention to detail.
@@MidoriMushrooms Ah, yeah. I missed out on most of the point-and-click stuff, though I did have a few PC games. Thanks so much for watching and for such great compliments!
The p's and t's sounds good now!
Awesome! They sounded much better to me while editing, too.
@@Kurazarrh Yeah, it's a definite improvement! Not entirely perfect yet - I paid extra-special attention, and there were noticeably loud pops at 4:55, 11:50, 12:23, 14:20, 14:50, 15:54, and 15:57. But none of them as bad as in previous episodes, at least.
I'm not a creator myself, I know nothing about how to do good audio recordings. But hopefully those timestamps will help in some way...?
@@streetwind. The reality is, my setup isn't entirely ideal, and without major changes to my life outside of Vintage Story, I probably won't be able to eliminate them entirely (and you'd be surprised how many creators with orders of magnitude more subscribers than me still have tons of pops in their audio). I have to record with a headset, which puts the microphone barely more than an inch away from my mouth. I've been through a few headsets, and the one I'm using now (Sennheiser PC37X) is currently the best balance I've found between comfort and recording quality, without breaking the bank on professional-quality gear.
That's a very well looking industrial building. Slate rock is such a great material to get a cast iron look. Let's see how it looks when the trees will grow 🙂
Thanks! Yeah, slate just has so many great uses. I'm glad I live right on the edge of a huge slate layer of rock!
Crimson Oak in the bedroom wood look amazing in a planter, love the color pallets !
Ooh, yes! I should get back to trying to farm those seeds. I looked at the json files, and it turns out that they're so hard to propagate because they have half the drop rate of regular maples! @.@
Thank you! :D
If any of you fine people want to ask this chap a question that gets answered in the video, comment the question, followed by the hashtag: #20Kuestions
He'll confirm if he sees it, this is the same with all of his videos up to this point. Again the hashtag is #20Kuestions get thinking !
Your patience is next level, for chiselling, I get infuriated after doing one block, the details again, I can't get over your detailed eye, top notch once again.
#20 Kuestions, question would be, would you ever play on a Vintage Story SMP.
Thank you so much! I'll admit, it took me a long time to get comfortable with the chisel. I think at this point I probably have about 1,000 hours' experience with Vintage Story, but it wasn't until shortly before I started this series that I really wrapped my mind around chiseling. It helps to chisel simple patterns in bulk, and also to use the Workbench Extended mod whenever you can / whenever it makes sense!
Also, I've added your question to the list. Thanks again!
Always look forward to seeing what you have come up with for each new episode. The (almost) completed factory looks amazing. Very glad to hear you still have many months worth of ideas yet to come for this series even at a point (steel-age) that many would consider end-game.
:D Thank you! Yes, steel age is so often the point that Vintage Story games fall off a cliff, but in my opinion, access to steel opens up so many new opportunities for adventure and increases the scale you can build at in a given timeframe!
I'll be downloading this game! Looks badass!!
Awesome! I hope you have a great time with it!
Another FANTASTIC episode, I really love the inside of your foundry .. Maybe add an upper catwalk for workers to fix the hottest part of the chimneys as they crack away? to add immersion. and maybe some carts with ingots on them... just a suggestion! really enjoying your vids though, I am VERY glad to see your notifications come through!
Thank you so much! You always leave the nicest comments! Your ideas are great; maybe something for a later "editing pass" or "finishing" episode! ;)
Hey! New to your channel and was interested in this series, im really enjoying it so far! Keep up the good work :D
Hey, thanks so much for the kudos! I'm glad you're enjoying the series!
I came across your Vintage Story Guide today, And im Really enjoying it. Im at 5th episode. And you have a great calm Voice and im somewat Suprised this is the only game your doing a series for. I would love to see some Rimworld playthroughs like you did 5 years ago :) Anyways im not someone who subscribes to allot of youtube channels But you got my subscription
Would love to see more :P
Hey thank you so much! I'm glad you enjoy what I make! As for further content, I'm currently at 100% capacity with Vintage Story; it's a very time-consuming game. In the future whenever I put down Vintage Story, I may be able to explore more than one game at a time!
Thats ok and Thanks for responding, BTW im still wondering if i should buy the game. Its not about the money but i generaly like to play with friends then play on my own :)
@@Friskain It can be a bit lonely to play alone in this game! If you've got some friends interested in playing, I absolutely recommend playing together. There are also some community servers, including the official play test server, along with ones like Aura Fury. :)
A quick lore-speculation regarding comparison with Steins Gate and so forth
Have you seen the film Primer?
If you haven't, then, you must cancel your appointments and see it. It is not only a low-budget film (under 1 mil, I do believe) that became something like a sleeper hit, it was also filmed in my home town of Dallas, Texas (My actual home town is in the suburbs of Dallas, to be specific, but, later on I did have an apartment directly in Dallas itself) But also, the film does really work as a science fiction piece, and it has this very "Microsoft-era, geeks-in-the-basement" aesthetic. What impresses me the most about it is how carefully the story is told, with admittedly way too much dialogue and not enough "dramatic telling." but, when you are dealing with time travel, you can get away with more talk, as, it's really hard to "demonstrate" time-travel related shenaniganry.
I actually have not completed the visual novel Steins Gate (a game available to play), but I want to now that you mention it.
I've seen Primer maybe 4 times, typically to show it to someone. And I am someone who almost never watches a movie more than one time.
Anyway, so, check out Primer, especially if you like time travel stories. (p.s., it's around 10:50 where you talk about the game's lore)
Never heard of Primer before but it does sound similar to Steins;Gate! Sounds like an interesting watch!
An absolutely amazing gameplay as condiment on the chieseling artworks ! Enjoyed it ! Care to do a an ideal food storage build? Its an awesome mechanic of the game IMO
Thank you! What are you looking for in an "ideal" food storage area? In the episode where I built the basement, I included what I consider to be my favorite size & shape for a food cellar. Are there other features / configurations you prefer?
Спасибо Вам за ваши видео. Очень нравится Ваше архитектурное видение. А игре, на мой вкус, не хватает "стимпанка". Ещё раз спасибо!
Благодарю!
So, I think there might be two TJ's lol... All good though, the other TJ got an awesome shout-out for being a third time offender XD
Ahh, seriously? I'm sorry about that! I didn't notice. ;(
... Would YOU like to go to jail instead? XD
@@Kurazarrh Hahahahaha yeah sure, toss me in jail as an Imposter! I demand a call out and jail cell in the basement wall of your Vintage Story Chateau xD
@@HerpDerply Consider it done. 🤣
Do you have any ideas on what you are gonna do with the wall paper you got today?
Not yet... I didn't get a ton of it, and I find it somewhat hard to use, since the other 5 faces of that block all show the aged wood. I might just hang onto it until I find more, or figure out a place to put it that would actually work with a build.
There are wallpaper "blocks" you can also buy from traders that can be attached to other blocks. They're horrendously expensive, though.
#20Kuestions Do you have any tips on laying out circular (ish) builds? I spent hours trying to chisel a spiral staircase that didn't look blocky before I finally gave up and just hid a ladder of shame in the closet ):
Thanks for your question submission! It's been added to the list!
Imagine, all the six and seven year olds pouring out of the foundry after their shift for their four hours worth of sleep, soot in their eyes and all and then they fall down the cliff. What a waste of workforce... Good idea with the fence to keep them safe!
The fall down the cliff is just to weed out the weak ones. Only the strongest of unethical workforces for MY foundry! XD
@@Kurazarrh C ya in hell! 😂
@@Robert-qr8co I'll save you a seat!
You said the stairs you made were a little wonky. Could you use the stone they are made of to make stairs and re-chisel them?
My soul shudders at the mere mention of "re-chisel." Hahaha. But no, due to the way I designed them, it wouldn't fix the issue. I'd have to figure something else out, but I won't be able to revisit that for a while, if at all.
@@Kurazarrh No worries. I also kind of had a thought about back packs. Can they work in a similar manner that shulker boxes do? If you take it off, the stuff inside remains. So if you take a few extra back packs, you could make a fair amount more inventory places. Especially with the carry more mod. If you need to collect mass resources, maybe it would be helpful?
@@skrepon13 Unfortunately, they don't work that way! If a backpack has ANY item in it, you cannot place it back in an inventory slot (not even a chest!), so you can't turn it into a bag of holding like that. 4 backpacks plus CarryCapacity mod are really the only way. I do have ExtraChests in this playthrough, I just haven't made any yet. I'm also pretty sure that the bigger chests from that mod also have a commensurately larger impact on speed/hunger/etc when wearing them on your back.
@@Kurazarrh Darn. Well hopefully the devs have a plan for improved storage in the near future. Seems to be a bottle neck that would be a QoL thing to change.
you could hang the lanterns off the big steal pillars. chisel a custom holder for them on each side.
I grow things too, what do you grow?
Ah, yeah, that would probably work pretty well!
As for growing, at the moment just a few tomatoes and peppers, plus a bunch of herbs. Been thinking about going full "food forest" and planting a bunch of native fruit trees, bushes, etc. Probably more work than I'd be bargaining for, but... hey, with food prices going the way they are right now, it might just become a necessity! @.@
@@Kurazarrh I grow tomatos, peppermint, mint, oregano, basil, tyme, parsley, two types of pea pods, peppers, chilli peppers and borage. If you want to do the wild thing, borage is great, it's self seeding, you can eat the whole plant, it tastes like cucumber, it works as a natural soil softener, a good mulch, its good next to Tommys because they need pollination and they attract bees, they attract ladybirds and they are a good evasive bug attracter too so it keeps the bad bugs off the other plants. Super good plant.
@@TheLewylew Very cool. I've heard of borage before, though to my knowledge, it's not cultivated very commonly where I live. Might be a neat plant to add to my food forest!
@@Kurazarrh there's places that sell seeds online, it's tall but so easy to grow. You'll do fine, keep me posted if you do decide to do it, hell I'd even ship you some of my seeds
@@Kurazarrh oh shit also Brussel sprouts and cucumber forgot about those. All in ground or in growing bags
Still waiting on a looooong episode, 21 minutes isn't enough :(
Aww. Well it's a good feeling to know you want to see more! :) Thanks!
I wonder if languages with unaspirated plosives have the same microphone issues?
I'm going to guess not this exact issue, but they might still want a pop filter to keep little spit droplets from plosives from impacting the mic mesh or its interior bits! But it's seriously just a guess...
#20Kuestions Have you ever tried Dwarf Fortress? Are you interested in the steam release? Have you ever seen Kruggsmash's youtube content (They're one of my fave creators on this website, I highly reccomend their stuff!)
Thanks for your question submission! I've added it to the list!
#20Kuestions Is there any one animal that you want to see come to the game what would it be?
Thanks for your question submission! It's been added to the list!
