Slavery, harvesting your slaves for leather and meat and dumping them in the mass graves? RimWorld - Finally! A worthy opponent! Our battle will be legendary!
Awesome update! I love how the building you construct show up on the world map!! Would be cool if enemy bases did too, it makes the world feel so alive Also really excited to see conquests and battles 😈
This is the first game in years that has me thinking about it if im not playing it and not using a cheat or mod to play, i have had 6 failed villages, each getting higher in pop. Last night i got raided for first time and fought that off then discovered that the map i use to pick where i start my village is actually something you play on with your army was not something i need to find out at 10pm before bed now i cant wait to get home. This game is moving to replace total war in my favorite list
Very interesting. I like games which implenting things like these. Sure, it's very rough and "evil". But it gave a nice aspect to the game. The "dark side". I am very excited to see the finished game. Bought it already and played a little bit. I like the way it goes. :-)
Ok the games is great truly love it, you have all our support, but its get a bit boring Please, tell us when can we attack other kingdoms ?When will the update for attacking/conquering other kingdoms come ?I wanna crush all the faction in massive bloody battles.
Hi I would like to inform you there is a bug when employing your workers in a bath house it causes the game to crash something about java point null exception might want to take a look at that problem great game btw :)
Was a pretty long time since I last played... and I had no issues getting around 300 citizens. The problem I had back then, was that raids were a hard counter, as they grew (seemingly) exponentially. ...and since I didn't see any way past that, I stopped playing. Now I've picked up Syx again - and I can not, for the life of me, see how I can bring the population up over 100. I'm starting to struggle even at 50. Songs of Syx has gone from a rewarding experience, to a complete grind. I - think - I'm somewhat bottlenecked by the iron I can generate - as I don't ever have more than 10 people to spare for coal+iron. So I'm just sitting there - watching the seasons tick by... turning into years... half asleep with my mouse pointer over the "accept immigrant" button ready to click to get those 1-2 extra people at a rate that barely exceeds mortality-rates. Getting clothes, monuments, lights, etc... doesn't seem to cause any major difference either... Only serving to bring me up from 50 to around 80-90. I'm playing Cretonians... perhaps this is what's causing the issue. I don't know. I might give things another go with another race - if I can muster some inspiration. Because I've sunk 2 full days trying to figure something out and I'm kind of pooped out at this point. Sorry for being all downy... Everything is looking great otherwise... I'm just missing the large scale of things - and feeling disappointed when I'm not seeing the numbers that I remember, while not understanding why immigration is grinding to a halt... Then again - perhaps this is the new design-direction of the game.. (which I really hope it isn't the case.)
You're going for the wrong things at the wrong time. There are a lot of mechanics you need to learn in order to progress, and it's a challenge I'm very proud of and personally think is fun. Gone are the days of simply putting down new buildings. Producing iron < 100 people can be done, but it's nothing I'd recommend. What's essential is trade. Focus on 1 resource that can be easily produced given your start location and race properties and buy price, and export it. Then import just what you need in order to grow while slowly replacing the imports with your own industries when you have the manpower. You need to transition from a filthy farming village into a city of splendour. Dormitories, lavatories, some roads, light, harmony and food is enough to give you 200 Cretonians. All just require stone and wood as building materials. Check the happiness screen for hints on what will give you the biggest bang for the buck. Large populations are still there, but require lots of effort, planning and knowledge. Grind, if you ask me, comes at 1000-3000, when you simply need to do everything over again, copy and paste. New mechanics and buildings will hopefully push that number up to 10 000 eventually. The ambition is to offer a great city builder. The huge population is a big bonus, but not the main selling point.
@@songsofsyxofficial9516 I do not mind starting over and over... ...but I do so only when I realize I can do something better. This game tells the user nothing... and without info - there are no strategical choices to be made with a restart. How about you add this exact-way-you-have-to-play-your-game... to the tutorial... which doesn't even touch on the trading station. To put it in perspective: Dwarf Fortress - is orders of magnitude less obscure than this mechanic of yours. The only problem I have with Dwarf fortress - is keeping my PC from suiciding past 400 dwarfs. I might check back on the game in 6 months or a year. As for now - I'm good. Sorry.
@@yammoyammamoto8323 Tried to help you both here and on the discord, like others, and be respectful to you. In the screenshot you posted there is a big button flashing in the centre of your screen telling you you have a deficit of 100 workers for your 60 population. If you have no workers, nothing will be built and no industries and services will work properly, which I think is pretty intuitive. But maybe DF handles it differently? Next to the workers, there's another big flashing button telling you how immigration works and how to get more people to join your city. I'm a tad surprised you didn't notice this information staring you in the face for 41h to be honest.
It's most probably in 2023, although this game is a never-ending story, I could work on it until my death, so the line between EA and release is blurry.
@@songsofsyxofficial9516 wow that is awesome, though my OCD likes my games out of early access to fully enjoy, as if the EA means like something is missing and is yet to be implemented, keep it up!
Slavery, harvesting your slaves for leather and meat and dumping them in the mass graves?
RimWorld - Finally! A worthy opponent! Our battle will be legendary!
8:16 OMG lol xD
Also, the future update sounds like EXACTLY what i have been wishing for.
Another great update. I just started getting into the game and I can't believe how much it changes for the better from update to update.
Just bought the game, and I'm already loving it! Was super glad to see that you have a channel here!
I'm super impressed with the progression of the game.
Well, well... slavery, cannibalism and mass graves - that escalated quickly XD
Great showcase of the newest features and of the things laying in the future. Can't wait to get dug in!

Great game, keep up the amazing work! Can't wait for the military update - How long do we need to wait? :~)
Still too hard to say. I don't know exactly how to tackle it all yet, ETA unknown.
Awesome!
do you mind giving us an estimate on how when the release of version 1 will happen? :D is it in 2022?

@@Lothaii Thank you. I must warn you that this game can be very dangerous if for OCD people. I suspect I have a mild form.
@@songsofsyxofficial9516 It will be fine I guess :D, awesome game

Haha this is great
