Strife and Serenity - A Going Medieval Tale [FULL SERIES]

This is a single video containing every episode of the legendary(ish) critically acclaimed (I'm my own critic and think it's alright) series I put out during update 4 in Going Medieval. It's perfect for a rewatch or for new viewers. I redid some of the audio, especially during the first episode, and got rid of the intros and outros for a smoother viewing experience. Don't let the character focus make you think this wasn't a challenge run. This was done on max difficulty without pausing and with some mods to make the raids more persistent.
In total, the series took about 30 hours of playtime and more than 70 hours to write, edit, and release it all. Subscribing if you like the video helps me a ton!
0:00 Episode 1 - I gave my villagers backstories then regretted it
15:39 Episode 2 - Am I bad for making my villagers sad?
29:48 Episode 3 - Triumph and new challenges
41:17 Episode 4 - Everything was NOT fine
58:36 Episode 5 - Just one tiny little minor war crime
1:12:32 Episode 6 - Coming to a close

Dude I am so mad that this video isn't more popular. It's REALLY freakin good. The awesome script and narration made it feel like I was watching a movie, and I was on the edge of my seat for every second. On top of that, it also served as a great walkthrough for the game. My only regret is that I'm 3 months late to the party. AWESOME VIDEO! It also just made me buy Going Medieval!

Thanks so much! All those kind words put a huge smile on my face even though I'm stupid sick now. GM is such a great game, but it's still in early access, which means not as many people know about it yet, but it's got a stupid amount of potential.

This game looks more fun than just prebuilt buildings and walls you can make it complicated defence wall with out restrictions on how big you want your settlements or a simple one and you can make a custom compared with other games that are similar I wish people would jump and play more like this.

The storytelling was great there too, you were more self aware of it which sort of made me realize how much storytelling you are actually doing, which just increases the quality so much for me. It is almost like a visual novel/audiobook. You say it all so seamlessly that it sounds sort of like you are just winging it as things progress, but the quality is so high it sounds like you must have some sort of at least cliff notes for the recording... Whatever you are doing, it is great stuff. Thanks for the entertainment. Keep it up. I'll try and remember to throw some comments on the other vids for the algorithm. Good luck.....

I appreciate the message, but my view:sub ratio is actually pretty normal. 1.6M views to 14.4k subs is around 1:111, which is a pretty normal ratio for most to channels have. Doubly so because a lot of my views came from 2 vids that got pushed to a wider audience of gamers and not just people that already like/watch the game, which means a worse view:sub ratio. I don't have an upload schedule because this is a hobby, so if I don't want to work on making a video, I don't have to feel obligated to have one ready for next Friday or whatever the schedule would be.

Great show :) ! I wonder something, is there a reason why didn't you build your initial defenses on even higher ground for your archers ? this would give them longer range to shoot at these bad bad raiders :P ! Similarly, in the kill corridor, i'm used to include traps to slow them down, any reason why you don't include this early on when you reach the level 20 in construction :) ? Thank you very much for the entertainment !

@JustDontDie Жыл бұрын

Thanks! Archers get the same benefit from being 1 vs 4 levels up. After that, they lose the range bonus. I could have included traps, but slowing down enemies by a couple seconds doesn't matter that much when there's so many that they stream in regardless and when raids last hours anyways. At least to me, anyways. It'd definitely be a help, but I wasn't too worried about raids for most of the playthrough.

Good playthrough, but next time try making better use of land for defense. I used to build big walls, now I just cut off every path in except for 2-3. Then you just need 2-3 gatehouses which you can easily build 3-5 walls thick very quickly. And to be honest you wont need gatehouses till around the 7th-8th enemy raid. Simply using the chokepoints will fend off most attacks.
