Hello Pravus, I've been looking for my favourite genre games and after playing/watching your channel, I think colony sims are my favourite kinds of game. Im really thankful for your channel that showcase this genre of games which are not common on youtube. Keep up the amazing work.
Glad your having fun with AOD, I am part of the team that worked on it for the last couple of years. Recommend going custom difficulty, no pause, death night every night, Mortal coil (game ends when the hero dies), and untethered (elite nightmares not constrained to their spawn points) Bunch of new stuff on the way soon(ish)
I discovered your channel because the previous are of darkness serie and stayed because of tour awesome and fun commentary. Was a pleasure and thanks/congratulations for your work
Storehouses give a 30% boost to sawmills and all kinds of quarries including gold ones. Storehouses do not affect food buildings in AOD. (in TAB warehouses also affected food buildings.)
I wish games could throw in saves that auto delete after you load them, for YTbers or people who don’t have a lot of time on their hands. This would stop save scumming, which is why they give you a limited number of saves, but you don’t have to worry about needing a long session to preserve your saves. It would work a bit like an auto-save, in that you could only have 1, but it would have to be manual and would make you leave the current run.
there is the autosave function even in nightmare and nightmare 7.7(hardest difficulty with extra multipliers), with the autosaves you can still return to where you left off so I don't see how it would prevent a multiple session run. On top of that, the game sometimes crashes, especially on final death night if you haven't pushed out far enough in 7.7 some computers can't handle the amount of enemies at the same time on the map, or if you take resources dropped in nightmare difficulty it might crash too from the amount dropped after a death night.
It's a single player game man. It has no leaderboard system at all. Save "scumming" is actually benefitial for the same people you mentioned who don't have a lot of time on their hands. Imagine losing a 3-hour match because you messed up ONE day. I wouldn't come back, because I don't have that free time. And deleting saves is just dumb overrall. However, if it were an OPTION, then it would be fine. But trying to make it a staple just because you wish, is just not cool. It makes you sound entitled.
On my first few playthroughs I managed to survive 3 death knights, until i got the gist of it. Then i changed my strategies, and got to the final wave. Unfortunately didnt know that they will spawn at all of the previous dk sites at the same time.. But at that time i had buildings and light towers lighting up 75% of the map. Its expencive, but you compensate by having ALL stone, iron, gold on the map, + wood coverage and food + housing all over the place..
Only problem with volatist faction is once the units are emboldened they can no longer be Horrified. Which sucks because emboldened volatist units actually deal less damage than horrified ones.
I admit, i skipped the earlier series. But this looks quite interessing ... kinda a "They are billions" in a fantasy setting? (I will go and watch that other series now. ;-))
This faction is very fery gery mery speedy, but I still like the rebellion more. They can expand fast with almost no penalty. And aleis has pierce damage which means they can go against axemen no problem. Even tough they are the weakest, if you grasp the playstyle of it, it's very powerful.
Hey Pravus, look up an early access game named Show-runner. It’s a management game where you manage a TV studio. Just entered E.A Jan. 17th I’d love to watch you play it!
I can see this is an older video so hopefully you learned how the darkness works, the way you set up your base is wrong in this video. The enemies spawn in your base because of the shadows

Hardcore
The food huts look like burgers.

Praise Pravus

Just wanted to pop in and thank you for your content!
I love this content!! Keep it up pravus!
Just a quick reference, Storehouses do not increase food production. Just in case that helps you in this run or future runs. ^-^

The last spell does this I think.
This game looks so damn cool. I will probably pick it up this month when they release the campaign.
Metal as Phuk :D

I wonder if that Two for One perk stacks with the double cultist recruit thing.
Yea! New series!
Praise Gimli!
New Age of Darkness run. Here we go!
Oh, new episode, new hero. Good. Can you please look at New Cycle? So far there is a demo on Steam but please look at it.
The darkness begins again

Does anyone know what the third unit in the training hall was?
Pikemen

I’d love to watch you play it!
Please link to Steam
Why would you place your ballistas so far back they can't protect your walls from ranged units?
For the Algorithm.
Is there a way to remove the noise that plays when you pause?
Is this basically They are billions?
Can you play knight of honor 2
I enjoyed they are billions but it always felt like it was missing something (never could figure out what) does this game improve on the formula?
Ummm why does archers costs stone ?
Arrow tips?
❤️
So against the storm is finished ?
Have you done Edwin already?
Alot of similarities with They are Billions...
Algorithm comment. May the all knowing algo gods bless you with many views and likes
Pravus should play more democracy 4. i would love to see a hardest difficulty america run. day 125
HE ALREADY DID
Its so odd hearing dnd VA in other games where you least expect it.
what is this game? I like it :)
It's literally in the title lmao
I can see this is an older video so hopefully you learned how the darkness works, the way you set up your base is wrong in this video. The enemies spawn in your base because of the shadows
That’s only on the wave nights though. The ones he was talking about probably crept in somewhere
Hey Pravus, bring back the face cam loved the hats you always wore.
He can't fit it anywhere, it whould fill up either the resourses which people hate, or the time.
Early Gang
Congratulations 🎊 👏 💐 🥳 on having the first comment
Age of Darkness, just yet another copy of They are billions or such.
Your constant pausing is triggering...
