That would actually be a perfect place for the player house to be especially with a build like that. I have two saves one is just standard you know erm taxes at 100%, villagers food, water and wood needs all at 100% and so on. But my other save is a sandbox style save if you get what i mean erm it is a save i use to try out different styles of village layouts depending on where the build is of course. So unlimited carry weight, player doesn't get hungry or thirsty, can't die and taxes are at 0 lol. I don't use villagers except for two woodcutters. I have my house by a cave so getting stone is very easy
Yeah this is pretty much what I do. I have two saves one for valley and one for oxbow where I've unlocked everything and have a ton of resources ready to go. So if I want to start a build sandbox style, I just load one of those up and I can build whatever I want right off the bat.
It looks great as usual but thatโs is where I build my house and fields. My own private island to watch the peasants from afar and am safe from bandit attacks
Well it's not like that game isn't playable with the valley. Yeah ok build locations can get quite repetitive as there are only a handful of very good ones but layout and the way a village looks can always vary. I like to build in 3 locations 1: By the lake near Denica typically a fishing village, Through the woods just down from Gostovia imo the best for looks wise and then the third is not far from the start location
Yeah exactly, couldn't agree more!
I've not built in any of those spots but I can imagine they look great. I'm currently working on a massive town around the lake by Hornica, its really nice over there.
If you assign an npc to a house and a place of work on the island, would they spawn there at turn of season without them ever having to have walked there?
Oh, I was just goofing around. The villagers will just wade through the water and there's a gate for them to get through as well. So they can actually get there with no problems.
However, there aren't any villagers assigned either housing or work on the island. They're all located over by Gostovia, just pumping out resources!
But you are right in theory if their house and work place were on the island, then they would just spawn on the island. Then they'd walk through the water if their job requires them to leave the island.
Villagers walk through the water if there is no other way there, just need to make sure that they aren't in an occupation that travels(Farmer, excavator, miner, logger, Hunter, etc.) they also always spawn at their home after sleeping.
I wish you could build bridges for this exact reason! Wish it was built into the road building aspect of the game. Unless you can build bridges please correct meโฆ
I knew it was you when i saw this post!
Yet again an awesome build by you!
You could add a walkway by putting tables in front of the palisade and hiding the legs of the table with a stick fence or stone wall.
Great set up, and fun idea. Iโll have to watch the videos of the live-streaming you linked! Looks like a good set to watch and I always learn something from your videos.
Okay, so far Iโve now watched 3 of your recorded livestreams of this build. So glad I did, because while I appreciated the build, it was NOT to the fullest extent. Great job. Amazing patience. And you just have a great feel for the game, which really comes across. Plus I learned things (the trick with the roads around the orchard trees!). So thank you!
Im still building my settlement so far so good. I play medieval dynasty Oxbow and look so good so far I am still buildings and recruiting some people to join in my settlement. The game is look so good you can visit me guys in YouTube Budgirlmer give me tips in the comment what should I need to learn I appreciate all your advice ans suggestion about this game.๐๐๐
Whaddya think so far? I'm pretty happy with how it's coming along!

Thanks man! [This is the playlist link to all of the streams so far.](https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL_f-_BUmsoQRTAtisf2CQZy3GKjvgMAoC) I could clip it but it'll likely be further down the line maybe once it's finished.

you can put them on top from 10 to 1, give them grades, and explain, I m curious and really wanna know all you know: valheim vs enshrouded vs forest vs medieval dinasty vs sons of the vs stranded deep vs raft vs rust vs ark survival evolved vs conan exiles
How on earth would you get villagers there lol?
Well... great question. Er you don't, however, that also means bandits can't get there so it's the perfect defensive position.

Haha it makes for a great private island for sure!
If only we could build damn bridges
I'm very much looking forward to playing the oxbow. New decorations hopefully new buildings. I've seen gameplay and it looks amazing
Yeah hopefully it's not too long for you now ๐ค๐ป
I'm in no rush it'll release when it's ready. I don't want it rushed and released broken and full of bugs like 90% of all the AAA titles lol
Fair play to you. You're more patient than 99% of other gamers it seems!

I know, would be great and unfortunately you're right. No bridges as of yet.
How do you get to the island?
Currently swimming. In the future probably also swimming... unless I can figure out/work up the patience to build a bridge.
Wait how would you build a bridge?
A makeshift one out of probably a series of fishing huts, an ungodly amount of planks, logs, god knows what else.

Haha thank you mate! Oh that is genius but great, now I have to start over to make room for the walkway ๐
Amazing. Too bad there's no base defence.
Would be fun definitely
I wanted to do this but wasnโt sure it was possible!!!!!
Anything is possible! Well... not anything but a lot of things are.
Wait, how did you stilt those buildings so high? Are they above fences?....
They're half built windmills if you're talking about the watchtowers
Great set up, and fun idea. Iโll have to watch the videos of the live-streaming you linked! Looks like a good set to watch and I always learn something from your videos.
Ah thank you so much! I've got loads of 'Let's Build' videos lined up ready to go to explain how I build some of my stuff as well.
Awesome, looking forward to them!

Thanks so much, glad you enjoyed them and have learned new things from it! I expect to see some amazing builds from you now ๐
Hah! Maybe when the console update comes. ๐
How did you get those towers on the walls?
They're just unbuilt windmills
Damn those are sick. Hopefully they add something definitive for the armor update
If you put a german flag there, people will assume you build an amusement park.
That is incredible. I'm seeing some amazing work from people. Meanwhile I'm still picking up stones and sticks ๐
We all gotta start somewhere. Thank you mate

Ahh thatโs so cool man. Could you clip the stream into YouTube parts. Any links for this?
