      if it's the Hub tower they don't really care if you walk around inside the tower, just don't do anything that isn't *strictly* walking around. you can sit on the chairs at least.

      have you ever tried to stealth-kill a Holy nation slave master at his own slave shop (the one in cloth standing behind the counter), quickly wearing their clothes as disguise & then proceed to lockpick and carry the prisoners one at a time to the far outskirts of town to free & recruit them?
      They may not be as skilled but at the same time, they don't have all that much of an upkeep in terms of cats so it's practically infinite recruitment.

      @@muffinman2546 I do a slightly (fine drastically) more complicated recruitment method. Step 1, find someone with a bounty claimable at a slave city. If none are easily findable, make one. You can do this by kidnapping say a holy nation person and dropping them off in a UC city, they will hostile, and get a bounty, so then it's just pick them up and you have someone with a bounty. Step 2, put them in a cage to turn in that bounty. Do not turn them in, put them in a cage directly so you control which cage they go in, you still get the bounty money. Step 3 break them out of prison (this is why you choose the cage, makes step 3 easier) and take them out of town to trigger step 4. Step 4, get them past the point where they choose to join, or more often run off. If they join, you are done. If not, proceed to step 5. Step 5. beat the crap out of them, recapture them and toss them back in the cage now for even more money since the bounty grew from the escape attempt. Go back to step 2.
      While mine is more involved, I make money doing it my way.

    Something about this game reminds me of Project Zomboid. I've never played Kenshi, so I might be completely mistaken, but there's just a sense I have. Kenshi seems like the kind of game that's just an open-ended survival sandbox, which is exactly what PZ is. PZ has so many exceptionally deep systems and mechanics though. Also, PZ has Steam Workshop, which I just realized Kenshi also has.
    Damn, I love Project Zomboid, and I also love games where you can make open-ended quests while dressed as some kind of samurai. I think I need to get Kenshi.
    Also, the setting of Kenshi reminds me of Atom RPG, if somewhat lower quality (which doesn't matter at all.) Atom RPG is one of my favorite games of all time, as someone who loves Fallout 1/2-type CRPG's but prefers more recent games to Fallout 1/2.

      Not a bad comparison, both require a lot of patience and sometimes tedious play, and both can be brutal especially if you're new and don't really know what's going on. I guess the main difference though is that you can have a large squad of people in Kenshi, and the presence of all sorts of different NPC both hostile and not.

      sure you won't get the buy value back selling the map anyway but money is too easy to come by anyway in kenshi... they should have added increasing salary for each squad member you get like your first few like 3 or maybe 5 are free but everyone on top of that costs more with each new recruit or even better salary depending on the sum of all skills
      so it would actually make sense to have some really weak low level characters only for farming and labour etc. and only a few strong fighters

    Tip if you need money, buy hash in Shark and Mud Town and take it to Mourn and Flats Lagoon and sell it. You then wanna buy skelly repair kits in those towns take it back to shark and make big profit. Can easily make over 100k cats from 2 runs with 2 characters that have backpacks. If you can get a pack animal or 2 this profit can sky rocket even more and set you up for the rest of the game.

      DON'T GET THIS GAME!
      It's a crappy game. I fell for the fake reviews on steam and hypes. First, you can't look around using your mouse. You have to hold shift to look around or holding the w and e key. That alone completely ruined the game for a simple sand box game.
      Second, there is no quest. I get it, the game want you to created your own adventure. Guess I want to do first? Stealing. Got caught with nobody around. So stupid mechanic lol.
      Third, graphic looks like poop. This explain why we can't tell between a rock and ore. I came from Atomic Heart. Playing this game downgrade my enjoyment. It's created stress instead by figuring why it's so hard to look around using the mouse.
      Update
      The no quest part is either lazy on the developer part or they want us all to become criminals.
      This game is the only game that make me feel depressed. I'm trap in an empty town that have nothing to do.
      Stealing get you beat up. Going out to a vast world of emptiness.

      but I also don't want to spend dozens of hours training my fighters or cheese the mechanics and even using prisoners as training dummies is kind of a cheese to be fair
      my current playthrough I started playing solo for as long as possible cheesing a bit to get combat skills started but also just picking easy enemies and having high athletics to outrun everyone and for this main character I reached very good skill levels naturally but I wouldn't want to train every fighter like that nor use extensive ranged fighters because that's just overpowered

    I get myself really encumbered past 70%. I'll spend a long time running back and forth from one end to the other end of town in sneak mode to train athletics, stealth and strength. I don't keep the bookbag on but I put it on the character's inventory to make her even more encumbered.

    Get like this 10.000caps and when waiting for another raid just max out your sneaking and athletics.
    Pay 10.000 to the closest thieves guild and then max out your assasination and pick locking.
    The grind take about 7 - 10 in game days to have decent stats.

    That *_REALLY works_* and is OP. All the guards & citizens are chill because they won't even look twice at you seeing a slave master carrying his/her "merchandise" to the outside of town.
    And the real kicker is that they don't have all that much of an upkeep in terms of cats.

    dude, i looked down was expecting you to have 50k subscribers or something. Your video is amazing. Keep up the great work. I ll check your stuff out more in future.
    Kenshi looks like a great game, but it looks overwhelming to even start.

      Wow, that's very kind of you to say. I hope you enjoy what I put out in the future.
      By the way, if you want to help the channel get those 50k subscribers, share the videos. It helps way more than you'd think, and I appreciate any help people are willing to give.

    I don’t know if I should play it or not, I have 56 min on steam, so I can still refund the game, but that 56 min was me having no idea how to play. I don’t know if I will like the game or not and I don’t know if I should risk playing again and losing my chance to refund.

      being confused and not knowing whats going on is apart of the game. I don't want to tell you about the game or how to start because it would steal your experience. Just play. Don't save scum unless you die. Just keep playing. You will not run out of things to do or places to explore. There is always more.

      This is the main issue about these types of games; they offer little to no tutorials and objectives are practically non-existent because it's a "do whatever you want" type of game, which is fine, Mount and Blade is almost exactly the same way and I personally have over 500 hours on warband alone but at least in that game, it teaches you how to actually play it.
      In Kenshi, there's no such thing apart from the base building mechanic. You create a character and you start in a village not know what the hell you're suppose to do. I know it sounds like I'm harping on this game but it really is a critical flaw that scares off newcomers.

    I made tons of money scavenging the battlefields of Bast. It's a great way to make money while levelling your stats (since everyone's attacking you because you just robbed their wounded buddies). That's how I got the starting capital to build my massive alcohol-producing slave compound and become a millionaire!
