Yes.

Ostriv won't win any graphical awards but it's one of the most... It's just delightful. Soothing. Period appropriate. No fluff. No drama.

I personally love how long it takes to build everything. It makes you truly consider what you want to build and also forces you to think ahead. (E.g do you build the farm through winter for the next sowing season, or build a trade post and import food and export other items) The time it takes to build anything almost acts as a penalty for rushing and trying to do everything at once, basically, the game forces you to take it slow.

Houses with gardens also allow for people living in them to grow more than enough food and thus sell it back to you at markets, which increases their own personal wealth (assuming you don't tax the hell out of them).

This game seems really interesting, I would be all for this to be a series

I love this game, I've been playing it a few years now. The most efficient method i've found is to build the forestry, and than build 9 houses and 1 Thatchery. Do the Forestry first, 9 houses, Thatchery, and than the smithy and carpenter. If you are quick enough you can get through the start without losing anyone.

Thathery last. Smithy for nails and metal parts, carpentry to repair/build carts and finally cart parking so you get a 4th slot. None requires thatch. Thatechry last, set to women workers only and max out employment. Don't start work on the farm until the 4th cart is built so the thatchery has time to produce. If you timed everything right, you should have finished your last house in October/November (if you were really good, everything but the farm should be ready by November) and the farm should be ready by March which is the earliest you can start planting anyway. Alternatively, forestry, clay pit, farm, thachery, houses WITHOUT gardens, smithy, carpentry and cart parking. You can have the farm up and running the 1st year and still get all 9 houses before winter but you're totally relent on the farm for food since nobody has a garden.

Finally a somewhat brutal survival game. It doesn't joke around.

The dark souls of survival games, game journos would even say.

I believe you start with all the materials to make all 9 house, the tutorial at the top left is actually kinda of a guide to pass the first winter, it's not very clear until have made a few cities but if you do what is says, you shouldn't have much issues to begin with.

Yes you do start with all the materials you need to make the first 9 house, except for the wood.

The nutrients are likely Potassium, Phosphorus, and Nitrogen, not in that order but definitely the three key nutrients for plants.

good time to start this series. the big part of my country will never be the same. thank you for support even in this way.

Oh man, i bought this game on humble bundle ages ago and just found my old key, certainly has gotten a lot better over the years :D

The game looks interesting and the UI seems to be intuitive. Could be a nice city builder

I love how the first thing you did when you were managing the economy was massive pay cuts

I recommend to place some banks. This shortens the way the worker have to walk to rest

One of my favorite streamers playing one of my favorite games! Please make this a series

Ostriv means "island" in almost any Slavic language (Ostrov in Russian, Czech, Slovak, Bulgarian, etc., only Ukrainian has the "i") and you pronounce it very right.

Love the realism of this game, hope to see more. :)

ROUGH... ROUGH... You are joking right?!? This game is amazing and OFF THE GRID!!!

Oh, didn't know this is still around,👍😎 Hoping for best.

At 11:45, one of the tabs you opened on the trading dock let you select whether men, women, or both could work there. Do all of the buildings have that option? That might be one way around the gender roles built into the game.

@sorinrociu1583

Жыл бұрын

Yes, you have that option on all buildings, but if you look closely that option is for laborers only, not for workers. You do have the option to select men/women workers for certain buildings (chicken coop, farm, etc.) but not for the "hard jobs" like construction, iron mine, etc.

soil colors: potassium, nitrogen, and phosphorus. which is red, green, and blue: unknown

Ive been following ostriv for years and im ao glad youre playing it 🍾

I'd love a series, but only if you are enjoying it and have the time. Enjoy yourself, and enjoy the time with your family. Cheers!🍻

Historically, I agree, women could be in more trades then they are in the current state of this game. I’ve had this since it was first released to Early Access. I haven’t played it in a while, but I share that frustration of never having enough male laborers. I made the same expensive mistake with the livestock. Good to see a video on Ostriv.

Ostriv means Island.

Those three colors in the farm are soil types there are three different types of soil types like in actual farming

Too much spread resources are actually no problem in this game. Firstly, building for gathering stone and lime can be placed wherever you want. The workers will be able to go for the deposits over all map. And since further processing and usage of them is quite slow and not so often, there is usualy quite a lot time for workers to gather the resources from the second half of map. Second, materials like stone, lime and Iron require quite complicated building chains to be built, so they are more for mid and late game. Until then, you should be able to buy them comfortably. I think that this game just require different mindset than most of other building strategies. Your developement should not be rushed, but more slow, steady and sturdy. Your people really need just some basics for living (and they have good amount of their own food and staff when they move in) and your economy chains require a lot of people. So your first focus should be lot of buildings, that meet requiremenst for moving in (they have market stall nearby, etc. - you didn´t have that one for half of a video, so thus no one was moving in). And just after that you are able to make your economy more variabile. It helps to start with building mostly houses with garden, so families have their own basic food. But since they tend to produce just one thing in each garden, you should also build storehouse which could buy their personal crops. And then you can sell it in market to everyone else. Makes food more variabile, and city cash flows better. Also pay attention to balance taxes and wages. You have set it quite uneven, so the rents were higher than wages. That´s easy way to bancrupt your people (for example when one of the family is just occasional laborer). If Iunderstand it right, the only way to get more money in the city is by selling goods to other cities (abd money brought by new settlers). All taxes, wages and local market transactions are just money circulation between families and you. If you try to gain more money that way, you end up leaving your people poor.

some items in the video that are no longer right. A clay pit is no longer permanent you can delete it now. the only building that is now permanent is the Town Hall.

Confession, I love this game. So I do feel that you are being a bit harsh, on the other hand it did take me a couple of false starts. And as a result I now know the "unwritten" rules for starting a successful town. That, I would suggest, is probably true for most town or colony building games. In fact one of my complaints/comments is that the game is pretty kind to you. If people leave the town, they are replaced by new people, often with better stockpiles of goods, so the only penalty is time. The dev is still actively working on lots of improvements, but the organic growth of Ostriv towns is unsurpassed by any other town builder that I have tried.

Jeez they've been working on this game for years now.

Not every wooden joint requires nails. Nails were quite expensive back then and were used only where absolutely necessary. In Ukraine we have wooden churches which are told to be built without a single nail. For example this one: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holy_Trinity_Church,_Zhovkva

The work rules for what women can and cannot do are probably based on what was really allowed and not allowed in that time-period. Until very recently there were very clear sex demarcations on work. It looks like they are trying to create a very realistic game for the period.

Hi

This is just a comment to increase engagement

Seems simple? Oh no. It gets really brutal when you get to around 500 population or so. Loads of fun. Certainly not a sandbox game.

talking about how realistic the building is then complains how slow it is lol. yeah building a place takes a long time, so it's realistic
