A Surprising Manor Lords VR Mod Is Even Impressing the Game's Developer

With over one million copies sold and 173,178 peak concurrent players on Steam, Slavic Magic’s Manor Lords has received a new patch to address multiple issues. It’s available on Steam’s experimental branch, and though accessed in the Betas tab, players should back up their saves. Some balance changes are also “still experimental”, and there may be stability issues.

The first major patch for hit city builder Manor Lords, version 0.7.960, has been revealed by developer Slavic Magic and released for public testing.

Harken to me, serfs! There's a big new patch for Manor Lords now available in beta testing for all players. Developer Greg Styczeń has blogged about it in depth. Yes, this is one of those update changelogs, the one that keeps on scrolling with hypnotic insistence till at last you tear your eyes away and look around and oh hell, it's night and why am I standing over this altar, holding a skewered doll?

Manor Lords launched for PC players late last month, and it only took about a week for modders to add Shrek as a playable character.

Manor Lords solo developer Slavic Magic suspects some players aren't enjoying the city builder's farming element because they don't understand how it works at a fundamental level.

Since its launch into early access, Manor Lords has taken the simulation game scene by storm, with players absolutely relishing this new city-building experience.

One of the core resources you can get in is Influence, which can help you press Claims for more land and negotiate with other settlements through Diplomacy. Having high Influence gives you a better chance to expand and let your settlement grow. However, you need to gather enough of the right resources to raise this aspect of your community through specific locations.

Between Palworld, Helldivers 2, and now Manor Lords, it’s been a year of games coming out of left field and achieving runaway success.

Medieval city builder Manor Lords was Steam's most-wishlisted game prior to release, and has now managed the feat of transmuting that anticipation into broad enthusiasm and very healthy sales. Not too shabby, considering that it's mostly the work of just one person, Grzegorz Styczeń of Slavic Magic, who has hopefully found time to sleep now and then between fielding bug reports and preparing the game's first patches.

Having more people in your settlement can make future projects much easier to finish in , but you have to foster a strong community to increase its population. Keeping the families in your town safe will attract others to move in if you have the space. With a larger population, you can generate more revenue and invest in important expansions of your land that will let your city grow.

I don't have a lot of interest in VR these days, but I do have an interest in the beautifully realised miniature doings of your villagers in Manor Lords, the city builder that is currently rather popular on noted purveyor of ye finest interactive entertainments Steam - and which now has unofficial VR support care of Flat2VR and Praydog's UEVR.

The developer of Manor Lords has responded to crash complaints, explaining that most crashes are due to old drivers.
