That's quite historically correct. Perhaps a bit late, actually.

Except that by workers he also means architects. They not only build but design the whole thing up. Do they even study or get tutoring? How do they know what to build? "This water tower looks suspiciously like the average house...". Check out this article describing an in-game water tower built by an uneducated 11 year old worker-architect: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/House_in_the_Clouds

Lucky there's no combat. If you asked them to build a Fort they'd loot all the houses for furniture, cushions and bed sheets to build it.

One thing i must say i'm encouraged about is the 10's of thousands of views Banished vids are getting on YT, i hope this bodes well for sales for all the hard work the dev has put into it and will encourage him after release. And this is before it's hit the big names(afaik) like TotalBuscuit etc, although i think TB may have done coverage on it at one point. I'm just itching to see how it turns out at the mo!

I've been enjoying the let's plays but wondering about the motivation to play once you have one of everything.
Megavillages, I guess, but...we'll see how long that lasts.

poor endgame content maybe? I mean, there's more to building a city than surviving after a while, right?

Two days to go ... well, actually one-and-a-half.

I am so looking forward to this game.   :D

Minecraft UI is very simple. There's only so many ways you can implement "simple" without copying something. We also gonna complain that it uses WASD?

It's still looking good, but I'm a bit worried about whether there is anything interesting to do if you get through the initial surviving.

I'm sure you could engineer a catsplosion, for old time's sake.  ;)

It seems worth keeping an eye on, but I'm with greatorder; let it be weighed and measured first.

PTW, I saw this in steam earlier and was curious if it was going to turn into something interesting.
