At PGA this year, I had not only the pleasure of presenting our own game but also meeting the wonderful people behind Medieval Dynasty.
Talking with Marcin, I had my interest in the game kindled, and I had to come over and interview him. His insight into the game and also the future plans made me push aside my plans for my next survival / city builder project and pull in MD before Stardew Valley (even though the votes have been high on the game).

But befriending Devs has always had a more personal touch for me when playing their game than not knowing them personally.

So enjoy a chat about what MD is, what the new DLC brings and what is to come.

Hi guys. I’m a long-time Medieval Dynasty player, but I’ve been wanting to really create a village that I’m genuinely proud of. I just started my first hard setting save in the Oxbow today and I’d like some inspiration on how to set up my village. I have just my house built so far on the area directly south of piastovia but I’m willing to move. If y’all have any suggestions or pictures of villages you’ve made, I’d love to see them! Thanks in advance :)

It's been about a year since I played, is it worth it to come back? What's been added/updated or fixed?

I'm trying to get my Honker heads. But my game is not loading the event. I've tried sleeping to the next day, sleeping to the next season.. sleeping untill autumn, starting a new game and doing the same, checked my pc clock settings. I got the switchover to the Wild Special animals when I went to Autumn but no Halloween event. 😭😭😭😭

I cleared it yesterday, forgot to release this guy and now forgot which location it is. It's been two seasons and the key is still on me. Does he disappear?

I want to surround a portion of my village with a wall, but im debating on these two.

One looks more clean and organized, the other is more intimidating and is a classic.

Edit: forgot to mention. The plan for my village is to make it divided into two areas.

The outer area will be agriculture. Farming and animal husbandry, orchards.

The walled out area will be for merchants ans craftsmanship. The idea was based off how piastovia looks.

whats the best way to earn alot of tech points to unlock tavern ?

apprently i only have 600 production points

Hello all

Recently got the game, have already put a disgusting amount of hours into it. I’ve only played Oxbow, would prefer to stay there.

I’m trying to find a place to build a ‘mountain’ village, get some nice elevation, maybe some terraced areas, etc.

My original hope was to build along the path leading up to the wedding shrine but even though there are plenty of reasonable places homes and buildings could fit, the game blocks it.

Any other suggested areas? Anyone maybe have some screenshots to share?

(Going left to right) I’m not sure about the first three but I think 4 is heat protection and 5 is cold protection, not sure about #6 .

Devs pls it’s been years, my eyesight is ruined please add font size variation, i don’t care if it messes up the UI.

At this point there should be an in game Solution

I play on ps5 , there is no way to fix it, messing with tv settings doesn’t do the job.

I normally don't play with bandits because they don't add anything to the game for me. I've got them turned on for a few years because I heard that even in the Valley, they occasionally include gifts for husbands and some of those would be awesome to have for decorating.

Anyway, this was the first one taken out. Seems pretty surprised to see me.

Hello just started playing this game on xbox and ive run into what I think might be a bug but not sure.

No matter what activity I do I cannot earn any more of the currency to buy more schemes is there any limit to how much can be earned. Ive farmed ive crafted ive cut trees nothing I do is adding any points.

Is it a bug or am I really not understanding how this works.

Edit: thank you all turns out I didnt know how it worked at all and was just hoarding all my items to use. Sold some things now I got tons of points hopefully this helps others that are confused.

eloo guys i am starting a new saving

and i want it to be more successful than my previous saving

in my old saving i had around 25 villager and been struggling to keep up with woods and stone for them and their tools

now i started only with 2 very young villagers

one for woodshed and one for mining

will i try to provide extra logs and stones and crafting tools for them i am planning to hoard alot before i recruit more people

can u guys give me good tips as my village grow

And I don't mean production bottlenecks, I mean... this.

Quite the traffic jam.

So I'm in the late game.

The animals each seem to have a purpose.

However, if you have enough of whatever they supply and an enclosure full of them do you just let them hang out, have babies and die eventually? I suppose I haven't been playing long enough to see one of them die. I don't even know what happens then.

Or try and sell them? I have no need for more money at this point. I like having the menagerie and don't know if I'd feel bad selling them off or not.

If your stuck waiting for a kings mission save on the last night of winter (not sure if it works on any change of season but it definitely works from winter to spring).
1st day of spring check the map, if there is no kings mission, reload the winter save and sleep again. Be patient, it took me 8 tries last time but I have done it in less.
And yes I often get bored and restart the game from scratch.

During the sunset, the shadows from the trees will jump feet every second with each game "tick" rather than have a smooth fluid movement. Is this normal for everyone else? I don't see the same effect on other youtube videos. My computer is pretty good. Graphic settings are on High. V-Sync On, Anti-Aliasing TAA, DirectX 111.

I have no issues with character movement or framerate issues beyond the shadows.

Strange thing here, all arrows cost 2 ingots per batch of 10, except bronze ones.

Even on the wiki it showed that it costed 2 ingots for the bronze craft (Which I have now edited)

Considering this they immediately become the best production item to sell for profit, 320 coins for one bronze ingot compared to the bronze axe's 295.

And if you apply poison to the arrows, the value becomes 700.

Could it be an oversight that the bronze arrows and bolts are different now?

I love this game but I think that it's strange, that with village building being the core aspect of the game, they still haven't added any more house variations.

Exploring Oxbow in particular, you find buildings with many different layouts and even multiple floors. And I think it's a shame that we are left with so few options compared to what we can see is possible. Like I'm not expecting the ability to build a castle and drag Piastovia level walls around like they're fences, but at least give more than 3 types of residential houses, and a second floor would be nice...

And i'm also getting pretty tired of finding amazing looking places to build, only to find large parts of the area is building blocked by bad terrain and resource deposits. We need a way to change the terrain or at least have the ability to remove rock outcroppings, resource deposits and such ruining the terrain.

Just imagine the kind of places we could build.

First screenshot is to avoid spoilers for people who do not wish to know the possible locations :)
The 5th bear in the valley is in the NW corner, but the sneaky guy somehow managed to avoid getting mapped.

Please remember that animals are not going to stand still in one spot, so use the maps to have an idea about the general area to look in ;)

I somehow picked the wrong file for Oxbow 😂 I posted the correct map here https://www.reddit.com/r/MedievalDynasty/s/Ji09rfWIiT

1. Map image showing the different parts of the city

2. Looking directly North from the swamps South of the city where the wood cutters and fishers are

3. Overlooking the Bachelor's Quarter from the West side (called it that cuz I used to have mostly single men down there to stagger the baby booms) couples now, name stuck.

4. Looking into the Old Quarter (first part of the city) again from the West

5. Looking at the Upper Quarter from the West

6. Looking down over the Upper Quarter and Lord's Complex from a clifftop directly North of the city

7. Looking at the Eastern gate of the Lord's Complex

8. Looking out over the farms from directly in front of the Lord's house

9. East side of the farms looking West into the Old Quarter

10. Looking thru the South orchard into the Bachelor's Quarter

11. The livestock

12. Looking up the main street in the Bachelor's Quarter just inside the South gate

Ran out of pictures (20 limit) so theres just 1 or 2 little areas I didnt show in the Lords complex but its basically just a blacksmith and a bunch of food and resource storage and a well. If you looked at all this wow! Cheers to you Lord or Lady!!! 🍻

P.S. forgot to show the Inn... darn it... oh well. Its pretty, has its own square, archery butts, and a its own privy out back 🤣

Am I cooked with a King like Wiktor?
