Hey there, and welcome to my channel! I enjoy playing a variety of games (Mostly FPS, survival, and horror games). I enjoy recording and streaming Overwatch when I have the time. I mostly post random clips I find interesting. Hope you enjoy :)
Wonderful. The end view of the castle was epic. If I lived there, the library was beautiful. I'd spend my time there with a bit of whiskey, a pipe, any a book.
Built my castle in the same spot as yours and I'm around lvl 65. When I kill all the V bloods, I will definitely be using this video for some inspiration, awesome base dude!
Only seen the outside so far, and it looks amazing. Very much looking forward to starting on a proper build, like this. I just started my first castle for function, so I could progress. I do like the plot (probably my favourite one in the first area, as it's one of the only plots that still has two tiers) so I will likely re design it. I have started to do a bit of architecture on the second tier (I've built up 3 floors on top of that now, so technically 4) but the first house will need remodelling (at the moment I have the first tier and second tier only connected by an exterior staircase, but will likely enclose that at some point, if possible) I might even use the first tier for mostly gardens, with a grand entrance, and maybe some storage and stuff off to the sides. At the moment I'm using the first tier for workshops, and I'm building upper tier as my Vampires house. Are the plots generally bigger, in the end game zones?
Thanks! I'm glad you liked the outside of my castle :) Smart strategy with your functional castle. Good to beat most of the game and then do a lot of decorating, since you have more resources and decorative options then. I like the idea of your first tier mostly being gardens (especially if your plot has a lot of beautiful natural features), but I'm also pretty biased since I love the gardens in this game ;) A nice/grand entrance is always nice and very important. As for the plots, I would say a lot of the very large and easy-to-use plots are outside of Farbane. There are still some large ones in Farbane with some cool features, but most of the ones I used in the past have been split up and don't look as nice now... Additionally, I'd also argue that the other zones (excluding Gloomrot South, unless you like yellow mutated rivers and pyros setting everything on fire...) have nicer natural features in or near their plots. That's just my personal taste though, and of course different designs can work better in different zones.
I really liked the idea how you eliminated the issues that come from building a huge building with elevation changes in the terrain. Thn again, I kinda didn't like the sheer fact that the build was purely aesthetic, with no function whatsoever. (no workshop, no forge, no alchemy lab, no tailor, no jeweler, nothing that'd give function to a base outside of the throne and the followers. This could only make sense for someone who already has full legendary gear in every slot. Full armor, and every weapon type, with really good rolls. Even after that, unless you use "creative mode", you'd need those to get resources for your decorative builds. Alternatively, I can easily imagine you have multiple bases, one of which has all the functional stuff, while this is for aesthetic purposes only.
Hey! Thanks for the input :) This castle is supposed to be purely aesthetic, and was sort of a challenge I set for myself to see if I could make a really beautiful castle in V-Rising. I had a functional castle (with all of those workshops, forges, etc.) in Farbane where I farmed all of the materials for this castle. I probably could have made some rooms look "functional", but only for decorative purposes as I did all of my crafting in my Farbane base. I have some extra context in the video description. If you're interested in seeing my productive/functional castle, I can do a quick recording of it and link it as an unlisted video, although it really is nothing spectacular.
This took me about 3-4 weeks to build. I did go on vacation for a week, which slowed my building a bit. Not sure if that’s short or long for a castle to be honest… most of the castles I built were before they added 2 story castles, and those took about a week max for the larger ones.
Great build, Loved everything expect the royal rooms and the throne room. The layout of the wall and the floor was fine but rooms them self needed work, The new throne that came out with Dracula death gives a needed spice, and the royal rooms need a total rework, way too much stuff it was crazy messy, and it felt like it didn't know what to do with the space.
Thanks for the advice! I totally agree. To be honest, I didn’t know what to do with those top floor rooms. Just too much space for a bedroom, but I didn’t want to section it into smaller rooms. I also wanted to try something… different and crazy. Didnt quite work. I also just wanted to finish the building at that point lol. For the dracula throne, I really wanted to use it but it kept clipping through the wall a little bit and looked a bit too big for the room… I want to use it in a castle though, since it’s such a beautiful and grand throne
Good luck with your solo run; I hope you enjoy it! Progressing through the game was really fun, and designing/building a decorative castle was a fun way to enjoy the endgame.
Thanks for that. I wanted the video to be nice and relaxing, so I'm glad I achieved that. Not too sure I should be happy the video put you to sleep lol... but I'm glad it helped you take a relaxing nap
Thanks for the input! I did look at the cobblestone paths, and while they are very pretty, they looked a bit odd on their own. With trees they would look amazing though. I think cypress trees would look nice in the courtyard while still keeping that clean look I was going for...
Love the castle man, I'm trying building one too and I have a question. How do I let the floor open the way u did in the stairway at the entrance lobby? I CANNOT find a way to stop the roof from spawning there in the middle. Any tips? Again, Love the castle you build there, keep up the good work. =)
Thanks, I'm glad you liked the castle! :) To get the floor to open up, just use the "Invisible Foundation" in the Castle -> Foundation tab. Fill in the roof sections with this tile and they go away.
Thanks for watching! What was your favourite feature in the castle? Could be a room, garden, the whole design/layout etc. I personally loved the gardens and balconies scattered throughout the castle, as they give a nice break from the castle interior. Additionally, you can't go wrong with extra gardens in V-Rising. :)
Hey man, amazing castle!!!! I've been building a heavily inspired version on an online server. Is there anyway you could share the save of the world you've built this in? Would be an insanely big help. (if you don't know how, lmk!)
Thanks for watching :) What was your favourite (or least favourite) part of the castle? I personally loved the cypress garden and the dining hall the most, although the side garden with the waterfall was quite nice as well. That said, my least favourite would be the master bedroom. I tried something different and it just looks way too chaotic… I wish I redid the entire room and tried a few more designs or just made the room smaller.
Very well made castle. I really enjoy the PvE. Nice to see that it can go far in terms of creativity. Would love to see what you build after the update!
Thanks, glad you liked the castle! I also love the PvE in V Rising, which seems to have only gotten better after the update. I’ll be sure to take a video of my next castle once it’s finished!
@@Aether_Ray I only started after full launch to avoid losing my progress but videos like this one make me very excited about what I'm going to build. Your focus on aesthetics and the general feel of the environment is EXACTLY my type of content. Definitely subbed. Thank you!
Also yes, this was back when OW2 first released. Edited it a while back, but I could never figure out why the quality sucked so I never published it :(
I don't know why the download quality was so bad. I couldn't find the match replay so this will have to do :( Shame since it shows me playing at my absolute peak.
Jacek Stacher yeah lol. Anyway, I have another Total War episode that I recorded; however, no sound was recorded. Would you still like me to upload it or do you think I should skip that one and record the next episode?
@@Aether_Ray well if there is no sound it will be hard to watch, but fo what u want i still wanna see next episode but u already counquered almost half of the world so it coming close to the end ;d
@@jacekstacher6347 alright, I will just skip the episode and then record one later today. I got a new wifi adapter that is really good so I might be able to upload way later today, idk. And I do not have Atilla Total War. I will check it out to see if I would want to get it. I already have 4 Total War games so idk lol.
Just something that happened the other day. I thought it was cool so I posted it. Also, I had a Total War episode coming out to day but it looks as if no volume was saved! Would y'all still like me to upload it or nah? Also sorry for the lack of uploads once again.
What I was playing was a 3v3 gamemode in Overwatch, so yes it is like CS for kids in a way lol. Except, it still requires skill and some teamwork, but definitely not as much as the base gamemode, quick play, or other games. The base gamemode is a 6v6 on capture the point, king of the hill or push the payload types of maps. You get 2 tanks (characters who have a lot of health but are easy to hit), 2 supports (the healers) and 2 DPS (damage dealers), so it's cool since one person doesn't necessarily do every role, but have to rely on other people to help them and you have to do your role on the team to help your team (the most basic example being that a support shouldn't focus on damaging but rather healing and a less basic example being that a tank needs to create space for the team and not just try to deal damage or take damage). You do respawn in that one, and it's actually a lot of fun and takes a lot of teamwork and skill. I don't think I have any videos of the base game though, only ones of custom games where the settings are changed and therefore take a lot less skill/teamwork.
I found one that looks similar but not exactly the same. The only difference that I found was that both sides could have up to 3 people and it had a health bar at the top. Its code is N5YRP
