So the first Day Sir Lance popped into existence, procured all the money from the local dynasties by proposing alliances, upset one of the dynasties, leased all of the public properties, bought himself a suit of armor and a Longsword, a horse, married a woman, and sent his serfs to kill the new rival dynasty. All in one day.
@@drantil People joke about Bards seducing everything but.... they REALLY don't understand how broken that is lol. Belle Delphine was more battle ready than some countries actual military generals. Think about that for a minute lol. Charisma builds are always beyond broken lol.
I loved the feud side story. As Spiff is monopolizing and destroying the economy, he's also making time to pursue a personal vendetta against the family who threw a fit after he robbed them blind in exchange for an alliance and then broke the alliance. I'm not sure they could have gotten off easier by just accepting the new alliance, but their doom might have involved less punching.
Spiff on killing his wife: "I think it's a little bit evil." Me: What's this? Has Spiff gone soft!? Spiff five seconds later: "We're going to kill a woman." Me: I will never doubt you again Spiff.
sometimes when you play bitlife your wife gets kidnapped and you get demands for money or you might never see her again....sometimes that is a godsend because you and your wife have no children, she's too old to have them and you're too old to adopt them XD if I say no and she disappears forever I just get to have a new wife (also getting divorced can screw you over financially if you don't have a pre nuptial agreement)
My favorite thing to do in this game is to run both a doctor/herbalist business and a criminal business, that way when my robbers beat the shit out of someone (or get beat the shit out of) they come to my hospitals. Its like printing my own money.
I appreciate though, that the game does actually seem to fight back and trip you up multiple times in response to exploits, thats at least a good sign of good game
Dijon is known for one more thing here in the netherlands: the midway stop because your parents cant drive anymore for the day while on your way to the south. It is why there are many hotels and motels there
Careful everyone, we have an impostor spreading fake news here. If Dijon were a spot for tourists from the Netherlands, they wouldn't need any hotels or motels but camping sites and parking opportunities for caravans. Always be critical of what you read on the internet!
Honestly, Yorkshire tea should finally sponsor you. I just paid 20€ for the standard and gold version because I wanted to taste it but they don't sell that stuff in Germany. I would not have done that if not because of you.
They did a while back as far as I know. You bought that stuff from Amazon? I'm from Germany too but it's pretty expensive so please tell me if those hot leaf soup is worth it.
I'm happy to see that The Guild 3 is finally at a state in development where it's fun! I LOVED The Guild 2, but man Guild 3 had a really rough first few years
I don't think there's even a "they" at this point. Rights holder went bankrupt in 2011. New owner gave the sequel project to a new studio in Canada and switched to a studio in Austria when the Canadian studio didn't finish the game quickly enough. Game ended up decent, but that was after a few years of fixing things, so ratings are still pretty dismal everywhere.
the send her to the monestry start and the build wells on every available plot of land in the city cuased an actuall argument in my friend group and a few weeks of not talking to each other, it was wonderful, we call it wellgate, 10/10 would destroy my friend group again
That woman stands in the middle of the public randomly harassing people then suddenly makes a beeline to make an offspring while a group of people are chasing to kill her. She clearly has her priorities straight.
I chuckled quite a bit whenever Spiff got a bit too exited, while pronouncing thousand. In my ears it sounded like a mix between Owen Wilson and Arnold Schwarzenegger 😅
Funnily enough, with Arthurian myth being written by the French and them absolutely loving courtly love (adultery), naming your character Lance A-lot means you are universally loved by the French nobility. Congratulations.
I remember in guild 2, if you murder the plaintiff on the way to court, you can get a summary dismissal of any charges. You can also sue your rival in a second town, knock him unconcious on the way to court, have him declared renegade and kill him as public service. The game was very broken, glad to see you are having fun.
I completely forgot this game existed. This just brought back so many memories. Me and my friends used to partake in the library club in school just so we could play The Guild 3 on the library computer during breaks.
It's useful, but nothing is as important than profiting off of a glitch at the very start of the game that allows you to start with the cumulation of capital that was originally intended for dozens of families.
Great job Spiff! Lots of interesting exploits with good explanations of how they work, an interesting narrative along the way, and solid editing. Your videos are as good as ever. To many more! 🍻
Thank all that is holy you posted this video and it came into my subscriber recommendations. I’ve been typing “medieval dynasty game” into google and RUclips for days trying to find this game because I forgot the name. As always, you’ve saved my bacon. I’ll drink to that (tea of course😮💨).
I'm pretty sure this is how Julius Caesar came into power. He borrowed money from all of the landowners in Italy, they basically became his allies because they wanted him to be successful in war and politics and get a good return on their investment, and so pretty quickly he became the richest and most popular politician in Rome just by asking other Romans to give him their money. Real life is also just that fair and balanced.
In this video, Spiff leverages the power of monopolies and arbitrages to entirely ruin the French city of Dijon and possibly kickstart the French Revolution a few centuries earlier.
But Spiff, the pigs?? What happened to the pigs you bought at the market? I'm on the edge of my seat here... You can't leave me like this. What happened to them, Spiff? SPIFF??
With the announcement of Dragon's Dogma 2, you should go break the first game. People who don't know about Dragon's Dogma need to see the beauty of High Maelstrom.
Spiff is always such the optimist. Wife dies? Great opportunity to get a new one with more inventory. Accidentally starts a feud? Great opportunity to murder a woman. Your worker is accused of attempted murder? Eh, not that big of a deal.
Would be cool, but I don't think risking legal with Nintendo is a great idea...unless the idea is beating Nintendo through Pokémon? Spiff battling Nintendo with Pokémon lol
I recently played where I only produced buckets of water. Managed buy the highest title bucketing water for money, and filling office seats for influence.
As a french person, i have to say i do not know anything that come from Dijon, exept their mustard witch is delicius, aside the fact you have to shearch hard to find one that is REALLY from dijon
Donald Trump would have been a more fitting name, the art of the deal has truly been mastered. “Ser I shall buy your entire stock of torches for a whopping 105 gold each! Oh! Looks like you are out of torches. Well, you can buy mine for a measly 116 gold each!” Masterful.
If you want to exploit the game, the best one I've found are the distant markets. Once you've unlocked them, just wait for those events where certain places are in need of specific goods. Then just buy and sell. Since you can use the same dock to buy from multiple locations, you don't even have to go back to the various marketplaces on your map. Just buy gear from the places that don't need the specific good, and you're good to go. Even better, sometimes one of them have a sale on the very stuff the other one need. When I first found it, it took me like 15 minutes to have more gold then I could ever spend in the game. Though in truth, at that point the game became utterly boring. So use the exploit at your own risk. It truly does break the game for me at least. An hour or two of game play, just enough to open up those distant markets and that's it. Now you just need to wait for the first "This place is experiencing a severe lack of these goods". And you can make enough money in 15 minutes to buy anything you want.

So in other words, he's a medieval lord/king.

"Used to be called Lance, a lot" very very good. 11/10 pun. Officially endorsed and approved by a member of the English Dad's society.
I could expect no less of such a cheesy person. Epic service as always.
I suppose then it’s no surprise that spiff chose a French map as his cheesiness is almost as famous as Frances cheese.

Yeah those early years were very janky. Still needs some polish but it is at least a very fun game
Oh i see, in real life we call trade efficiency exploit - "corruption in government procurement". What a marvelous and educational game indeed.
