Less than 2 minutes in. "Here is a map, start wherever you want" No gimmicky restriction or forced start location, a good opener for sure.

"very stressed out people are not going to be producing children" I wish my parents would understand this logic.

Dude blowing through explaining this game at a million miles an hour the same way the professor casually explains calculus without taking a breath.

Banished is one my my favorite games of all time. If this is able to live up to the standard set by Banished, then this is definitely something I'm interested in.

Watched about 3 minutes an dimmediately bought the game on steam. After 870 hours of Banished, I seriously doubt that I will experience buyer's regret.

Looks like Banished with foundation Grafics. Looking forward to see more of this game.

Banished was good. Like REALLY good. But it was getting old. This truly is a game changer

It was Pravus, actually, that made me interested in Banished. :) This game is seriously a spiritual successor to Banished. It even has that colonial charter mod feel into it, with the technology, advanced resources. Oh yes. This is something I'll most likely pick up in the future.

Hm... Pravus making a series. About the successor of one of his most beloved games... I see this as a win :D

“2 peas are going to be good”. A minute later, “let’s pull back on the peas”.

Definitely getting this game to play over the holiday break. Its UI is so much more polished than Banished (which is understandable, given that Banished was the first successful game of this type, so they were bound to miss a few elements). I love the tech tree element, which - if memory serves - Banished did not have.

Banished will never be topped. I miss having 200k food and a few cities.

"sawmill and water sawmill also complete this task" You didn't want the chopping house. You didn't need it either.

I really love banished, have about 400 hours on steam. For me a deal breaker is always games that introduce currency. Banished is all trade and I really appreciate that about the game.

BANISHED SHALL NOT BE REPLACED NOR SURPASSED !!

Pravus playstyle is the exact opposite of Josh's playstyle when playing this game... Enjoyed both

Ohhhhhhh 2 new series in one day... now THATS what i wanted. PRAISE PRAVUS!

14:27 Pravus: I will set time to 10x, it's the only reasonable speed I think Also Pravus: This game does progress really fast! Love the channel so far, new subscriber here!

While the enjoyment of this game for me will for the most part come down to gameplay, I sure will miss the rustic cozy naturalistic graphic style of Banished.

You are not lying when you said it is so much more than Banished. In Banished, I feel stranded. In this one, I feel like exploring.

14:30 "The game does progress very fast." Dude. You've been at 10x speed the entire time. Sheesh.

Praise Pravus

Looks fun! Can't wait to see what it's about. Also, love all that African pine.

I love playing banished

Finally, the lord had answered us! Seriously, i have been waiting for your playthrough since the game first released.

This is fantastic! I loved the concept of Banished, but it felt so unfinished and I ended up feeling bored after 5 hours. I'm gonna give this a go now.

When I saw "The succesor to Banished" I knew this was my game

yeay new series😆😆🥳🥳

This is interesting because of all the games mentioned in the last few months/year or so, about which games are similar to Banished, I don't think I had ever heard of this one. And yet, just looking at it, along with menu options that each building does, it is even more similar to Banished than the other games that had been mentioned previously. It's almost literally like Banished except with new graphics and few more concepts added, which is typical of a sequel.

Happy to see you play this! Not going to lie though, I can't wait to see you do an extreme playthrough of this

You have a good voice and you presentation is excellent

I remember banished.. such an awsome game

he's on a rollacoaster ride its hard to keep up lmao.

Crazy how similar to banished this is, but with better UI, more vibrant graphics and seemingly much deeper. Looks great.

wow I just saw your video and I am amazed by your channel and the way you relate/report what is happening and what you will do in game :) appreciate this and you got a new subscriber for sure ^^

PLEASE make this a series!!!

Dear god the sheer number of options

Love the new series already! Still waiting on that in depth Planet Coaster series though...lol

*'Plays on speed 10'* "-That's not much time, the game kinda' does progress really fast"

What a lovely looking game for graphics, and seems to be a much better operational than Banished (there is nothing wrong with Banished at all, just saying.) Looking forward to more of this series.

the problem, for me, with these settlement/colony sim survival is the tedium after getting a large town/city. I wish there was a way to automate stuff after you have expanded

might wanna read the tasks more thoroughly when it required you to place down a chopping house further down it said a sawmill or water sawmill can also complete this task

Pravus, I'm proud of you and myself, my head isn't hurting listening to your FTL speed explanations. I guess I have to subscribe

I know that this is a bad place to leave a suggestion for a series as it's the 1st episode for a new series, but I would absolutely LOVE to see you play Anno 1800 again. You only did 1 episode, but I've been binge-watching another KZfaqr who has a lot of content on it and is going deep into the late game for it. I think that it would be really fun on your side as well. edit: all dlcs will be best for a series if u do play it

The technology tree is directly ripped from Frostpunk

I had a lot of fun with Banished. Was feeling empty after finishing all steam achievements. Got a new goal for this semester:) thanks for the gameplay videos. Cheers!

this game is the first game ive played of the genre and its soo fun

OMG! I hope your Hunter captures that Idle Baby Chicken! They cost Millions of Silver if you purchase from a Trader and they produce "Tears" for Special Buildings!!

The dude who was the first to get injured seeing a graveyard being build just after a clinic: 😟

banished 2 is coming you are not ready boyz

this but military/combat elements would be a dream game

a banished successor you say, well im excited

The real succcessor to Banished is Ostriv.

Oh this looks lovely and I cannot wait to see more Pravus.

bro this is my first video of yours that I'm watching when I first heard your voice ngl i thought it was an A.I voice, awesome!

'The truly iconic city builder' yes sir yes it is

"Very stressed out people are not going to be producing children" damn tell me something I don't know

look forward to seeing more of this game.

need more of this whole series please!

you're right! this game is an improved version of Banished.

Guy: keeps building.. Ai workers: ( ˘︹˘ ) ...... just kill us

Couldn't help but notice at the start around the 8 min mark "gatherers will search the area for wild vegetables and tequila..." EH? 😂😂

The one thing I really miss in Banished is the lack of an economy or real trade that can lead to progression. After the first 70 or so citizens when everything stabilizes, it's just more of the same. Endless sprawl of wooden shacks, giant surplus of goods that I can't sell to actually advance my town. Sure I can trade some, but once you have all the seeds that's basically it. My town of 500 is sitting on a giant pile of iron, stone, wood, mutton and wool jackets which is absolutely worthless. Rich as hell, can't even build a 2-story home.

Huh...this is on my wishlist. Didn't even remember adding it. Looks good!

It's interesting that the game has an Easter Island scenario for it's hard mode that has decreased wood production. It's a nod to the fact that the inhabitants of the island, who called it Rapa Nui, caused the downfall of their civilization by cutting down their forests for ship-building and Moai construction. By the time they realized that they'd destroyed their ability to produce wood in meaningful amounts, it was too late, and by the time the West contacted the inhabitants there, there was only a handful of people left.

This looks like such a fun game!

Will keep an eye out for when it leaves early access.

5min in. I'm sold.

this lowkey feel like a more advanced age of empires lol!

That was..... heavily detailed tutorial.

Finally, a game that makes dried animal dung interesting!

Love the look of this game and can't wait to see some more!

You, sir, are a delightful watch.

More series for the god of series)

For these types of games, I need realistic graphics so banished still is nr.1

Thanks Pravus, I see a new black-hole for my time.. off to Steam and tell my fam goodbye.

Great video. Love your style and speed, would like to see this as a series :)

This looks and feels amazing!

This gives me a lot of rimworld and they are billions vibes. I like I like

Pravus please read the quests bro you could have placed a water sawmill to complete that chopping house one lmao

awesome pravus. you are the best gaming youtuber

"very stressed out people are not going to have children" If that doesn't sum up my generation's situation perfectly, I don't know what does.

I AM GLAD THAT YOU TRIED IT

A link to the game would have been a nice addition . . . but I found it on Steam - TY!

pretty aesthetic, some cottagecore people might like it :3

wow, i played this back in 2015 or something. The game has turned out freaking awesome :o

Oh man this dude biffed it two minutes in

dope as always prav

This game looks very interesting. Reminds me so much of Kingdoms Reborn.

Thanks to this video I just found this game and picked it up last week. I agree with a lot of your excitement in this video. I just wish the items highlighted in the help section were links. As in, if I am looking at the smelter and it mentions I can make steel using certain materials, I wish I could click steel and those other materials to learn more without having to go look for them individual in the other areas of the help guide.

A Steam review for anyone wanting to buy this game, just please consider this: "This game seems amazing at first, the graphics are nice, the music goes well, the load times aren't too crazy & the UI is pleasant to use But after about a good 3-5 hours, this is by far the most infuriating Colony sim/City builder i have played, and I hate that i kept thinking I could overcome this game's problems instead of immediately uninstalling & just spending my weekend on ANY other city builder. If you're gonna give this a try, be warned. You can't notice the faults in the first 2 hours of the refund period 1. LACK OF DESCRIPTION: This is a chinese game that's been translated. And as a result, the item description for LITERALLY everything in game is cut off. Like the in-game description starts off with "Peach: This is grown in Orchards, its a rough food so long term consumption results in-" The end. Like... you couldn't even find a way to squeeze in the proper description for each item? Or shrink the font size so it fits in? In mandarin i suppose the characters have the full length, but not in english for sure. On top of that the game's mechanics are VERY hidden/confusing, im not sure if this is a translating issue There's multiple difficulties but other than saying "the resources are harder to find", it doesn't say much else. Not the fact that winters are 3x longer, arrive sooner and there's lower temperatures. Nope. Each citizen has both health & Life. You'd think one of them indicates whether someone is alive or not. Absolutely not, i have had citizens that drop to 0 health & 0 life and still live. Other times, my 1 citizen dipped to 0 health but full life and instantly died 2. Impossible/Frustrating mechanics. A lot of reviews with in-depth time have mentioned this but this game's citizen carrying priorities are so screwed Let's say your tailor is producing clothes for the winter for your small town of 15 people. He will literally keep producing UNTIL HE HAS 40 CLOTHES. He won't ever drop it off and he'll start wandering around doing other things like chopping trees etc. Your entire town could be freezing to death, and he WON"T EVEN wear it either to save himself The game is hard-coded to drop off things ONLY when your citizen is full... just why? Take a clue from banished/rimworld/timberborne/LITEARLLY any other city builder jesus. There's no cart-person either that takes stuff from workshops and puts it into central storages either Speaking of storage, you cannot have your citizens prioritize a certain storage either Let's say you build 5 plots of farm land far away from the city. And you build a warehouse close to it for them to store Your citizens will IGNORE IT. And spend 10% of their time harvesting and 90% of the time walking to the warehouse that's 50 miles away, until that one is full Sure, you can "trick the game" by turning off that storage & turning it on later, but why? Why is there no "radius" for picking stuff to store in? Or choosing a storage manually? 3. Technology: This is literally the worst designed tech tree in the planet. You passively get resource points that become harder and harder to unlock as you get more I'm not even sure if its mathematically possible to unlock all the tech tree options no longer how long you play. And a lot of the tech trees aren't like "This would be nice to have, faster roads" No. They're tech options that literally decide whether or not you Live or DIE. Notice how most games scale up the technology tree? Beginner technology = 1 point, intermediate = 2, end-game technology =4? Its designed this way so that you don't have guns & missiles without knowing how to purify drinking water Except in settlement survival, all tech costs the same. And some technology trees have NO USE other than just... serving as a catalyst for others Research a clay pit? Great -> Wait another year to unlock water mill -> Wait another year after to unlock the loom to spin cloth -> Wait another year to unlock the tailor! Until then, most of the technology is pointless. While the tailor is considered almost critical to survive winter 4. RNG RNG RNG. Its one thing to have a tiny amount of healthy RNG, like different map types, different goods on a merchant ship Its another thing to have rng in POPULATION GROWTH. There are games where i literally have 80-20 gender split. Like seriously? I get a wave of immigrants and they're ALL WOMEN. Either implement polygame or fix this jesus RNG when it comes to unlocking certain seeds wouldn't be so bad, when some crops are blatanty overpowered (Hello beans & peas kingdom.) Also, so many other crops are pointless like cherries, lettuce etc. Like if you're planning to implement them in the future then sure, otherwise they're just a "Hah! You thought it was grapes, but it i was I the USELESS CHESTNUT Tree!!" Or at least put a food variety in the game RNG when it comes to unlocking cotton/flax for BASIC SURVIVAL is not how it should be. RNG when it comes to unlocking seeds for potatoes/agave for alcohol processing is just frustrating. Sure, you can get it from the merchant ship after paying off a truck load of money. But its meant for mid-game once you're established ( which btw, you lead a colony of drunkards. If they don't get alcohol, their happiness lowers and they're -20% efficiency, effectively killing your colony as everything else slows down) TLDR: Incomplete translations. Broken individual citizen game mechanics. Severely lacking optimization options for a veteran city builder. Buy this game maybe a full year later after they've patched it like crazy. Avoid it for now"

i love the games you play and your videos and your commentary

Make it a Series pls

Those fucking clouds drive me loco.

This popped up on my Google homepage Pravus!🙌🙌🙌

It didn't felt like someone playing the game for the first time, but more like a developer giving a demo of the game while explaining its features..

I really wish this kind of game really similar to banished release to mobile

Banished is becoming the new Dark Souls. Any new city builder is suddenly the next banished. wth

2 minutes in and it already reminds me of ECO

Looks more interesting and playable then both Banished, and Colonize, combined. Now if only the Graphics matched or exceeded those 2 games.
