Manor Lords - Frequently Asked Questions!

hey everyone it's Luke here from LT gaming and welcome back to the channel today I'm going to follow up on our previous Manor Lords video and answer some of the most pressing questions about the upcoming game there's no denying that that last video was a massive hit for us so make sure to check it out if you haven't already and as a result of that success I wanted to respond to all the questions we got in the comments and to others that I've seen floating around online let's give you as much information about the game as we possibly can so first first up let's keep it super simple and outline exactly what Manor Lords is and what you can expect from the game Manor Lords is an upcoming medeval citybuilding realtime strategy game developed by Slavic magic it combines elements of city building strategy and realtime battles set in a medieval European inspired setting players take on the role of a lord task with building and managing their own medieval settlement including constructing buildings managing resources and overseeing the economy additionally players must recruit and command armies to defend their settlement from rival Lords and engage in strategic battles to expand their territory one of the notable features of Mana Lords is its emphasis on realism and we outlined that strongly in our first video the detail in both city building and combat aspects is Sublime the game aims to provide a realistic simulation of medieval life and warfare with intricate city building mechanics Dynamic weather systems and realistic combat tactics players must carefully manage their resources economy and military forces to thrive in the game world to round it all off Mana Lords has garnered attention for its impressive visuals detailed simulation mechanics and promising gameplay experience making it an anticipated title among fans of city building and strategy games now expanding on this from the last video many people got quite animated that I mentioned Total War but a lot appreciated that I made that comparison also of course the game is very different it's both focused on developing your Manner and fighting in smaller tactical skirmishes but many of the mechanics do cross over to Total War and I think the disappointment in the recent game although I'm enjoying Pharaoh has led people to put a lot of stock in manords to solve the total war problem and maybe that's the wrong comparison to make but overall I do think if you're a fan of Total War you're going to recognize a lot to like in this game so moving on let's ask when exactly does the game release and on what platforms Manor Lords will release into Early Access for PC on April 26 2024 via Steam geog and the Microsoft store now for those people saying in the last video oh it's early access look I said it very clearly there it releases into Early Access I said it in the last video and I've said it again it will also be available day one via PC game pass so that's an excellent option for those who subscribe to that service and an Xbox console and Game Pass version will come at a later date though I have no further information on when exactly that will be so there we go that's question number two under WPS make sure to comment below hey did you know it's going to be an early access because I didn't say it obviously I do of course justest LT Gamers let's roll on to question number three let's flesh out then what is planned for the initial Early Access build Early Access will have city building where you can develop your region from a tiny village to a dense town build Industries unlock development branches in the technology tree plan and upgrade your Manor it will also include Army management and battles you can draft villagers hire and upgrade your retinue and hire mercenaries to fight against Bandits and invading Lords there are also be a claim system where you can earn influence and lay claims to neighboring lands Early Access will feature a small selection of different modes and scenarios as well as initial versions of things like policies and the technology tree what engine is being used to develop this game and the answer is Unreal Engine 4 which is known for its powerful Graphics rendering capabilities Advanced physics system and flexibility making it a popular choice for many game developers at this current time there are no plans to upgrade to Unreal Engine 5 a quick intermission while I ask you to like the video leave a comment and subscribe to the channel hit that Bell for notification so you're always up to date on the things that we deliver here at LT gaming both me and Tom really appreciate it come and join the channel we're growing really quickly and we appreciate all of your support coming up next we ask how much will the game cost and the information I have for this goes back to Mid 2023 so it's subject to change but I have it in front of me that it will cost $2999 or $24.99 EO and there's going to be a discount at launch I think if this is what the game comes in at it's a very attractive price point for all the gamers out there who are excited about it however I must strongly state that recently another statement was made that the pricing won't be decided until release so let's treat this with a little bit of flexibility after all we hear about inflation every single day so let's not put it past games to inflate their price now with the discussion on Total War in the last video people asked are the battles on the same map and the answer is that in Manor Lords battles typically occur on the same map where the city building and management take place this integrated approach allows for a seamless transition between city building and Combat gameplay and of course differentiates it from Total War I am quite excited to learn that players will manage their City economy and military forces within the same environment where battles unfold this is extremely immersive this integration should provide a more cohesive gameplay experience as players must strategically plan and defend their City against enemy attacks while also managing its development and growth will the game have mult multiplayer manner Lords focuses strongly on the single player experience against an AI controlled opponent or scenario and I actually welcome this because I am a fan of single player games mainly now you know me and Tom have dabbled in Hell divers too and that's a fun experience also but when I play a game like this I do enjoy that single player experience however to expand on this the developer has stated it's possible it could be added later but that he wants to polish the single player first the fact that he wants to focus on a great single player experience first should be praised next up let's talk about the development studio and is he truly working alone on this game and the answer to this is although there is only one permanent member of the studio there is a lot of cooperation that goes on with Freelancers to make the game work it's also been stated that a number of assets have been bought to speed up development there is of course in the background the wonderful publisher hooded horse who takes care of the marketing and distribution in the last video there were a couple of hilariously aggressive comments accusing us of being sponsored and I can confirm a hooded horse didn't sponsor that video and they haven't sponsored this one so it's just me and Tom doing our thing next up will there be walls and fortifications will there be Naval battles and will Cavalry be included in the game now none of these will be available at the Early Access launch but the developer has stated a desire to add each of these features as the game develops and he solves problems with the base gameplay to be honest I was a little surprised to hear this about the naval aspect maybe he was referring to the walls and fortifications but if they eventually add Naval battles as well that will be interesting if slightly strange but I have to say the addition of walls and fortifications is going to be vital to this game's success and they need to get it right we then need to ask Will there be different cultures and is there a campaign well the Early Access launch version of the game is going to be a single faction and sandbox only however exploring different cultures and themes in the future is something that the developer has thought about a pressing question that many of us want to know is will there be mod support and yes I'm pleased to confirm that it is planned but it won't be implemented until at least 1.0 has been released the potential to mod this game is very exciting and I know we're going to see some absolutely amazing projects in the last video I did mention gunpowder and there were some questions in the comments so about guns well the developer has addressed this by saying if he does them they'll be one of the last features added to the game he doesn't want to turn off people who don't want guns to be in it I think that's interesting he's going to listen to player feedback and if it's not something that's necessary for the game they won't be added but there's always potential for stuff to happen what items are confirmed not to be in the game some of these were requested in player feedback and I did see some comments on them in the last video but there will be no Dynasty mechanics no heroes or leader units no single person units in general for now and no Town guard and finally to wrap up LT Gamers what is the meaning of life and it's been suggested that it could be to play manner Lords that was a funny question that I saw out there on the FAQ list that helped me put this video together however if you think I missed any stick some comments below and we can always follow up with a part two as always I've been Luke from LT gaming make sure to like comment and subscribe literally anything about Mana Lords are you hyped for the
