The dev statement that came out that basically said this isn't going to be Total War, or Crusader Kings, but Banished with some combat on the side, that made me happy. That's all I want. A modern successor to Banished. What a stellar city builder that was. And still is.

In just 10 hours, we can immerse ourselves in this long-awaited, amazing city builder game and truly appreciate all the time and effort poured into making this one-of-a-kind experience.
This game is Stronghold+Banished+Total War and I love all 3 of them and all 3 of them had something missing in them, and that was the other two games. Now someone made a fusion of all 3 games and it is awesome. Strongold lacked battle tactics and deeper survival aspects. Banished lacked anything military. Total War lacked anything city building and micro managing your town. I am very much ready for this game. 🙌
I'm not a city builder type of gaming. I mostly play RPG, story driven, single player games but Mr. Falcon explained it to me like I'm a 5 year old for this. I love it and now I'm gonna support the guy who made this awesome game. I love supporting small studios like this. Thank u Gameranx!

There was a decent line of city builders by Sierra and Impressions games that seem to function like this. Ceasar city builder, Zeus city builder probably being the best known ones. Big fan of those so really happy to see one come back into the games environment after mostly being an abandoned game type.
played the beta when it came out, its a really solid experience and the fact its made by a single guy is INSANE, hopefully he gets picked up by a studio who can assist him for future projects cause the mans clearly got talent
I can't wait to play Manor Lords tomorrow!!! I will have a blast!! Played it on Steam's Demo Fest long time ago, looked good and interesting and it was on my radar for a year and a half, so finally tomorrow is going to be the day! And there is so many great city builders coming, Frostpunk 2, Kaiserpunk... This is going to be a great year for city builders!

Proof of concept is there, but I’ll be waiting till 1.0 to play (which will probably take a while)
The more realistic version of this is your lord going to war and your troops being levied. Deal with raiders while meeting a quota of supplying and equipping so many men. Seems like a very in-depth and interesting game! Can’t wait to play it on console in three years
Your explanation reminds me a lot of the early 2000’s city builder Pharaoh. If Manor Lords is like that, then I’m totally in! I played a ton of Pharaoh back in the day.

Gonna be real, I’d love it if you had a game that was a mix of this and Medieval Dynasty, not only planning things out like this from topside, but also getting to go out and take part in the tasks themselves. I understand that’s not something a lord is typically shown to do, but it’s always nice to break the norm
I bought it, played it and it is great and I will continue to play it and wait for updates because it is really worth it, Manor Lords will be most likely the game that will be on par with Anno when it comes to city building enjoyment. Game kicks ass and with Kaiserpunk and Frostpunk 2 that will come in a couple of months time I will have a blast with city builder games this year!!
What do you mean medieval buildings were not elaborate? Compared to laying hollow brick over hollow brick in a straight line and few corners and what ever they do in USA with paper walls or whatever, medieval buildings had very nice looking wooden beams filled with dirt/wheat /clay mix and white washed with lime which decorate the house , overhanging walls, different shapes , different materials from foundation to the roof top .Also combat isn't just spice , you use your villagers which are used in the chain of production as soldiers meaning if any of them die will be like throwing a bunch of wrenches in a cog wheel
"Is that Jamie fooking Lannister?"
God bless Gamranx. I appreciate these reviews so much when I’m really interested in a game, but unsure if I want to commit.
Thanks for this! Looks like my kind of thing
that cape physics is fucking awesome!!!
Guess everyone else thinks the same thing about that thumbnail.
I only heard about this game about 2 years ago, articles kept calling it the “Total War Killer”, it’s not that. Now that I played 30 hours I’m realizing it feels more like the Age of Empires game I dreamed of as a kid. I loved AOE but I always wished it had a bit more city building to it. It’s really good and I can’t wait to see how the developer improves it further
.. Good Intel .. Thanks .. may wait for an update or three before pulling the trigger .. or I'll buy it and park it to help out the Dev on the front end as he seems to be "all-in" on making the game complete and (very) worthwhile .. and yeah (raising hand) I have been following this game and have it wish-listed .. lol ..

This game is great. I'm usually not a huge city builder fan, but I've been having a blast with this game. Very complex, but rewarding to learn.
What’s here is utterly fantastic and the dev should be SO proud. What worries me though is the same thing that makes all this impressive - it’s one guy. How long are we looking at until this is a full release? How long between patches since this is early access? It took 7 years to give us what’s here, how long for everything else? Very much looking forward to it, albeit a little apprehensively.
That Scottish land title sponsor should jump on advertising around this game...
So glad to see a review that clearly stipulates that this is a city builder first and foremost. Too many "influencers" focus on the combat. It is like the Caesar or Pharoah games; combat is there, but it is a tiny part.

I remember playing this as a demo during the Steam small developer event a while back and then emailing the developer to please let me be a beta tester because I loved it so much. I bought Farthest Frontier to kind of scratch that city builder itch but it just wasn't as much fun as this one, I am looking forward to pay day when I'll be able to buy this
Never pre-order.
i havent played "Manor Lords" yet, but the fact you mentioned how burdensome is to equip your units is actually a good flashback from the past for me. I played alot of "Knights and Merchants" and to build an army was so f* hard its kinda nostalgic
Thanks i made sure to buy it before the sale ends on may 10
This is so scenic and high-def even in 1st person mode, it could legit be a first-person game. Let's call the dev of this game ONE man army.
This game is stronghold for the new era but without the castle building. An individual villager can be seen going to storage and getting the raw material then refining it and the delivering it to its specific storage
This really reminds me of the Impressions era games like Caesar 3 and Lords of the Realm. This looks right up the alley for anyone who wants a cozy city builder with a little bit of combat. I'm super excited.

There are so many gameplay elements from Lords of the Realm II in this game. And that makes me so freaking happy. Every so often I install that game and how nothing else does it like that. And boy does this game scratch that itch.
This sounds like a super old school rts/city builder that I have never been able to find an equal to. It was a crazy obscure game made by JoWood called nations. Sometimes known as alien nations over seas.
from what i under stand this is the small portion, an i appreciate it
Have a friend waiting on this. Sending link to him now. Thanks guys for showing some gameplay, and first impressions.

id be very interested to see additional civilisations or themes I guess in forms of mods or official stuff. Think it's not a bad idea tbh. I think this game could be a platform for medieval city builders imo
Can you recommend a game with similar mechanics that's more centered on the army/ fighting aspect? thnks
This is pretty much exactly what I told my buddy. The game is barebones, but what is there is really awesome and the foundation is very very solid over most other early access games, with some pretty impressive technical performance. I’m excited to see it expand and follow its development closely

I bought it and played it for an hour and a half and then refunded it because in that hour and a half i felt like i experienced everything the game had to offer at the time and that's the curse of it being early access. I actually did enjoy what little of the game there was to play and now that I just found out it was made by one guy I'm thoroughly impressed. Was it worth the 45$ AUD i paid for it? At the time no. One day it will be and ill rebuy it then and it has a lot of potential
