21.4 hours but good building location?

[The Real GOW]

I've recently came back to this game after deleting my save to start fresh, is there a good building area? my last one was when you first enter the first town you see if you keep going through to the other end i was building there but it all went uphill and building stuff there was sooooo damn awkward but i thought building close to somewhere where i can trade to assist my travel problems

Might help if we knew what map you were playing.

Define "good building location". Some places might be good for me, but not good enough for others.

My usual places: north of Denica (south of the main river), south of Tutki (north of the main river), west of Tutki (west of the main river).

go to youtube search base locations medieval dynasty "map name" there are a few guides that show off various locations

If you are in Oxbow go across the short bridge immediately outside town. Cross the bridge. Head down the river away from town. Start a settlement just before the next bridge. Its relatively flat. There is clay on the other side of the river. No wild animal spawns if you don't build past that second bridge. Close to town. Near water and lots of wood. Lots of berries. Lots of straw in the river on the island. Good starter location. You want to be fairly central. You will go to town all the time. Pick a spot not too far from town on a river near woods. Those are the key criteria.

Keep in mind that all of your Resource Storages are linked, so no matter where you build anything, only a Resource Storage is needed near vendors.

Similarly, since you always wake up in your assigned house upon season change, you can also reassign yourself to any house anywhere and "teleport" there at the beginning of every season.

I like the coast north of Denica, mostly flat and the 3 towns for seeds and such in the neighborhood.

If you like your village organic build in the hills and mountains. Farms can be built on slopes. If your a little OCD and like everything in perfect rows pick flat land by the river. This is in the valley.

Yes, when the devs introduced co-op they released a new map called Oxbow that can be played co-op or single player. When you start a new game you will get to choose which map you play on.

Oh, i played waaaay back, there was no voice acting, no blood, only 1 map, little to no stuff to interact with so a lot has changed in that case

If you try out the Oxbow map, Ostoya is to the South East of the starting town. Just north of the lake is a crossroad and a huge area to build on. It's mostly flat for building, but that's not where it shines. Near to there you'll find a ton of deer, moose, pigs, and a spawn for bears. When you find the bears to the east at the crossroads, go across the bridge and up the rocky hill to find a cave that's perfect for mining.

Additionally, to the east of the area is another cave between the build location and the starting town. To the North East of the building location is a house to loot that has a longbow and some arrows to help get you started on hunting. This area also has a lake where you can get straw and fish.

Ostoya has 3 vendors, campfire, wagon for travel, and sells sheep (when you get farming to the point you can build a fold) for wool. West of Ostoya you can find wisent and other prey to hunt.
