  • Manor Lords is so cinematic I can scarcely believe it, but in this video, I've collected my jaw from the floor, collected the most awesome battle scenes I could create in this stunningly cinematic game. The battles of Manor Lords might not be the most important part of this, but it's certainly the most epic, on THAT I will NOT cede ground!
    A massive thanks goes out to @Strat-Guides for lending me his save containing that first opening 900+ man battle, a truly great achievement! So make sure to check out his channel and subscribe if you want more.
    Let me know what you think of the look of Manor Lords' battles in the comments, and make sure to leave a like on the video and subscribe to the channel if you enjoy what I do! :)

    I love the fact that the different soldiers in a unit aren't completely uniform. They have different helmets, shields, even different amount of armour. I have the biggest respect for the developer, he really did his homework when it comes to weapons and armour from that time (which I guess is around the 13th century).
    And despite the huge visual differences, you can easily tell what type of unit it is at a glance, that takes some skill.

    • @surtofgods8265
      @surtofgods8265 Před měsícem +1

      So currently you have bandits on the map, and then when you make a claim or contest a claim of the enemy baron then he sends an army. Which will often have Retinue and mercs. I believe the plan will be to eventually have the AI factions build up towns but as it stands currently you only trade with the off the map King or noble.

    Great video, well put together with good soundtrack, You presented the battles really well with great atmosphere. However I think a lot of people are going to be disappointed if they buy this game just for the battles and/or because they are pissed at CA. I see so many "stick it to the man(CA)" comments on these sorts of videos, on the steam discussion page and even sometimes on the Manorlords subreddit. I like a wide range of games and have played lots of TW, Stellaris, RPG, FPS MMO and builder games over the years. I will be buying Manorlords but I know that the game as it currently stands is 90% build 1450 Franconian villages in beautiful scenery with some depth to the builder aspects and 10% small scale footmen battles and its in EA so there will be bugs and stuff not implemented yet. I have been following the game for a while, done a bit of research, watched probably too many creator videos :) in the last few weeks. I know what I will be buying. There appear to be many folks who have only just heard about the game especially in the last two weeks with all the creator content who have not done much research apart from what their favourite creator is telling them. All the folks who think this is a replacement to scratch their TW ME3 itch or more generally TW games in general given CA's missteps are going to be disappointed and I hope they do not end up giving the developer and publisher endless grief about it because it was not what they thought it was even though the dev and publisher have been very clear for ages what sort of game this is. Anyway, we will have to see how it all pans out :)
