I think it’s really interesting that the AI is clearly programmed to build a grid of 3x3s and then to fill them based on what they contain. It’s like one of those automated self expanding Factorio bases.
6:00 No definitely. The quarry animation was so neat, and the sound effects were very satisfying. Then the oxen to take it over to the stockpiles too. "More stone is needed, Sire" "The granary is FULL, Mi'lord"
Stronghold and Stronghold Crusader has such aesthetic sprite work it will literally never get old. Photorealism be damned I just want to see my woodcutters work
Having at least one youtuber I'm subscribed to for 'movie' content is nice. Every once in a while I'm in the mood to just watch something for a couple hours, and this perfectly scratches that itch.
So basically this is how each empire failed orange: crippled by a lack of stone purple: dead just dead probably killed by vikings green: did quite good for themselves but got killed by lathrix

This art style- and its 2d equivalent used in Rimworld and Prison Architect- is really nice for indie developers because we don't need to make a ton of character animations.
I went to subscribe until i realised i was already subbed for whatever reason, so i went through your channel to realize i used to watch your terratech videos 7 YEARS AGO. Clearly youve been making quality content for a long time now. Keep up the phenomenal work ❤
06:00 omg me too, its so much fun playing with overpowered AI as your allies and you just sit at the back building your own base and patrolling it with troops
I love the commentaries you make for this game. Can't seem to get into other channels, yet, but your Kingdoms and Castles longplays are wonderfully entertaining
Smiley kingdom: I like pork, we like pork! Do you like pork? Lathrix: uh...sure Smiley kingdom: excellent!**Leaves** Lathrix: wait why do I suddenly have so many homeless people. 😂
I think an interesting idea is since the vikings can eliminate the AI. Do a game where the goal is to be the last kingdom standing, via viking elimination. That idea might be interesting, I've never played, so i might be wrong.
Watching stronghold crusader npc's do their job's was something so simple and awesome.Honestly, better times, more enjoyable and happy times. If no one understands, I do. Getting old sucks :')
This is my first time watching one of your videos and it was the entirety of this 1 hour and 45 minutes video. Loved the gameplay! Love the accent (I'm American)
Hi Lathrix i have a suggestion for a future FTD challenge run; submarine only combined with melee and or flamethrowers only (not sure if flamethrower will even work underwater though), hope this can give you a proper challenge and lots of fun and crazy ideas :)
Of course there is always the people who wait for a video to come out just to say “first” like it makes them better than everybody else. They don’t even watch the video all the way through, and some of them just say “first” and don’t even watch the video. But besides that, I really enjoy watching you play this game!
I came back to this to finish it, as I didn't and I'm still sad about the fact that the friendliest n nicest ruler (purple) was just a ghost town at that point. Honestly the 100 gold birthday gift probably was worth more than the entire kingdom that's left
Lathland: I like the look of the ai kingdoms but it doesn’t seem reliable for the players because of buffs and boosts Lathland 2 min later: Alright big library go here and it’ll pretty beside it not boosting citizens much
When you mentioned stronghold watching them I was already thinking of me playing the stronghold games and just watching them cut blocks amazed me as a kid 😂
Well, 48 hours ago I didn't know about either this game or your channel... now I'm subscribed and have built my first Humble Kingdom in peaceful mode to get a feel for the game, and am starting on my second, this time with vikings and dragons.
6:10 i still think its awmesome how every production building in stronghold has neat production animations.. A woodchuck felling a tree Taking it back, making planks, bringing them home. A bowyer taking it, cuting away at the wood to make a bow... Its beautiful
Imagine finding the curseland, you discover this absolute desolate wasteland once called a kingdom ravaged by viking time and time again by forces disproportionate in every aspect, or in simpler terms. Got shat on
Hell yeah Lath 😎 Shit I ain't watched this game since the last time you posted it, I don't think. You are probably one of the only Tubers who makes great quality content across the board, no matter the game. Much love man
Yo lathrix i used your old into (Greetings, sirs and sirettes and welcome to another video with me, lathrix, and of course) in my oral presentation for school and everyone LOVED IT, i just wanna say thank you for being an epic youtuber, now and also in the past (you were like my childhood youtuber) thx 😊
Done watching the video, I can say that the revelation of the empty island was a shock. Concidering how well it went, maybe a challenge run would be more difficult
You should Play Avorion again. I recently just finished my second playthrough and the game is way different. Also, the developer has begun work on a Tycoon game so Avorion is basically in its final form and won't be getting any more major updates.
Ballista - Ballistae.... 1:30:19: Well, you wanted a clean-slate island, start anew......... That's mostly clean-slate. Got some roads though but they're easily swept away....
Okay youtube algorithm me and uou are gonna have some words. How am I nearly an entire week late to this video. I even checked my notifications the other day ! 😅 anyways movie time. Thanks for all you do lath
Ohh my God. It's been so long since I heard someone talk about stronghold crusader. I would love just building a huge castle watching every person at their specific job.
Since it seems like this is the year of going back to RTS games you've played in the past, might I suggest a They Are Billions playthrough? Also, this was a lot of fun to watch, thanks for the great content!
Round of applause for Peter, 90% of the kingdoms victories came from his hard work
So true.
Thank you kind stranger! Not sure I did much though.
@@Peter-SlashYou were the goat proven when you single handedly invaded 2 enemy kingdoms with nothing but a sword
I think it’s really interesting that the AI is clearly programmed to build a grid of 3x3s and then to fill them based on what they contain. It’s like one of those automated self expanding Factorio bases.
Factorio mentioned neurons activated
The amount of warcrimes committed within the very first attack he did is honestly impressive
Weirdly enough, he technically didn’t commit any
In a world with no international treaties to define what a war crime is, nothing is a war crime lol
Yep, precisely 0. Astounding that he managed to do only completely normal raiding with no undue cruelty.

No definitely. The quarry animation was so neat, and the sound effects were very satisfying. Then the oxen to take it over to the stockpiles too.

First comment in yours
Stronghold and Stronghold Crusader has such aesthetic sprite work it will literally never get old. Photorealism be damned I just want to see my woodcutters work
The one kingdom he tolorates longest ends up being a literal ghost kingdom. Wow
I would like this… but funny number
oh curseland oh
I think it was the lack of stone on the island that was their demise. Some paved roads was seen but not even a well in sight.
Grab your popcorn, it’s movie time

Purple and orange: Weak
Green: Human together strong

1:30:06 Well with the first empire you asked for a clean slate. The game is simply obeying your request.
Thank you Peter for keeping the castle alive.
People like Peter is what stops islands from being cursed. He's the true hero of the kingdom.

If no one understands, I do.
Getting old sucks :')

Views are looking pretty lucious, my man. Glad your still makin bangers, and movies from what I see lol. Keep it up my man! Love the content.

@@hisupwassup omg good point
This reply is here only for engagement purposes, please disregard it. Thank you!
37:05 I mean, it's just embracing your english blood by attacking the tombs. I shall be unsatisfied if they are not posted up in a museum later.
Love kingdoms and castles playthroughs. Thank you Lathrix!
Good job Peter, your hard work brings honor to Lathland

Found this by accident, I usually only watch From The Depths and Terra tech but definitely watching more now that I know it exists. (Love your voice)
Lathland: I like the look of the ai kingdoms but it doesn’t seem reliable for the players because of buffs and boosts
Lathland 2 min later: Alright big library go here and it’ll pretty beside it not boosting citizens much
Always love it when Lathrix uploads
Great episode! Thank you for the entertainment!
When you mentioned stronghold watching them I was already thinking of me playing the stronghold games and just watching them cut blocks amazed me as a kid 😂
SAME BROO hahaha Simpler times
“We are now poor” 😂😂 I couldn’t help but bust out laughing
I love putting your vids on while drawing or studying :3
Haven't watched it yet, but very excited!
Well, 48 hours ago I didn't know about either this game or your channel... now I'm subscribed and have built my first Humble Kingdom in peaceful mode to get a feel for the game, and am starting on my second, this time with vikings and dragons.
Movie time with Lath! I would love to see more of this in the future!
6:10 i still think its awmesome how every production building in stronghold has neat production animations..
A woodchuck felling a tree
Taking it back, making planks, bringing them home. A bowyer taking it, cuting away at the wood to make a bow...
Its beautiful
Good job farming Peter!
"welcome you warmongering citizens" HEY THATS ME :D
Never heard of this game and have no idea what to expect but I'm here for it

Blood for the Blood God! Comments For The Algorithm! Love watching this game Lath!
Woooo! Almost 2 hours of binge time

Lathrix: I can't see if that's my blind spot.
That's how they are!
Love you lathland, been watching you since ftd season 2.
I used to watch your robocraft videos eight years ago and its amazing to see you still making content, miss the greetings sir and sirettes!
“If we lose, we lose beautifully” is so real
Thanks for the amazing laid back content, most enjoyable 😊
I believe the plural of Ballista is Ballistae.
Nice Game & Nice Playthrough, but tbh I expected max difficulty AI to be more challenging xD
Your kingdom looked beautiful btw
a lathrix upload makes any day a good
Always love to see your videos, have a good day.
Done watching the video, I can say that the revelation of the empty island was a shock. Concidering how well it went, maybe a challenge run would be more difficult
any day that lath uploads a video is a good day
6:02 I did literally the exact same thing, I adored that game when I was younger
The part about watching peasants in stronghold took me back to my childhood
*EPIC MUSIC in the background* I was easily impressed as a kid
Next time (if there will be one) he should use the mod that adds more buildings types. Really makes everything look better and more cohesive.
Thank you for this video!
I’m so bad at this game I managed to start a war with a medium AI on like my first couple talks with them, I didn’t even mean too. 😂
You should Play Avorion again. I recently just finished my second playthrough and the game is way different. Also, the developer has begun work on a Tycoon game so Avorion is basically in its final form and won't be getting any more major updates.
Love Lathrix long videos, watchem a few times fall asleep to them a hundred more
Still not convinced this isn't the spiffing Brit's second channel where he sounds slightly less posh
Moar comments for the almighty algorithm! Moar booms and clangs! Moar doom for the doom brothars!
Don't completely encompass your castle untill you absolutely have to
If the vikings don't have a clear path in, Ogres will be spawned earlier
Ballista - Ballistae....
1:30:19: Well, you wanted a clean-slate island, start anew......... That's mostly clean-slate. Got some roads though but they're easily swept away....
We want more Stellaris !!! Love whatever you play though ❤

wait my names peter
You did a wonderful job Peter!
I thoroughly enjoyed this movie-like video!
I hope we see more videos in Kingdoms and Castles
how did i miss this video for 5 days
time to sit back and relax with some tea
Hey, just asking for my own curiosity. Will you ever do more Airships videos? Those were probably my favorite videos
“Money please 😊”
“No 🗿”
“War.”
Where have you gone good sir. Your absence has brought great sorrow apon the land.
This game gets sooooo much better when you get mods for different houses. I’ve spent too much time playing this😂
Ohh my God. It's been so long since I heard someone talk about stronghold crusader. I would love just building a huge castle watching every person at their specific job.
Me when I see a Lathrix video:
“WHAT A WONDERFUL DAY!”
Since it seems like this is the year of going back to RTS games you've played in the past, might I suggest a They Are Billions playthrough?
Also, this was a lot of fun to watch, thanks for the great content!
i just saw it pop up in my feed no views posted 13 seconds ago lol😁
Spiffing Brit if he enjoyed coffee lol I love it
Needed this tonight
YES! Another Kingdoms and Castles playthrough!
Finally came home and can watch this now, perfect for winding down
47:47 Just like the AI in Anno "The island ends there? There is a river? A mountain? It doesn't matter we have to stick to our grid!
Love the vids as always
I recently re-watched the 1000 years survival, nice to see another video so soon
Thank you Peter!
I'm convinced every British person sounds the same, you sound just like the Spiffing Brit, W video, keep it up
