Nobody care about base building in Elin.
Almost every base building games out in the market is more superior than Elin. Elona is known for top notch rpg gameplay, and Elin should expand on that. Playing Elin's base building is a big downgrade and it's boring. It's a waste of resources to focus on the base building part of Elin.

Colony management is a nice way to shake up the formula from straight Elona, and offers better Quality of Life and the feeling of character growth through custom townships and fellowships.

Which is also an aspect of RPG gameplay. If you really wanna get pedantic, Elona was primarily known for being a sandbox RPG-lite with combat elements.

Well the colony part of it is not fitting very well here imo. More trash bags, more poops please! Might as well throw in some piss puddles.

Build combustible and non-combustible waste boxes and set to shared, they'll store trash in there.

I agree that Elin base-building isn't all that worth it/fun, and could use a lot of improvement. It's an EA title that came out less than 2 weeks ago, tho, and the dev states in the EA roadmap in-game that colony management will be improved upon.

Thought the same until I discovered that tents exist and they act as buildings you can enter & store stuff inside. You don't have to build anything and the outside area doesn't look cluttered with millions of crates, crafting stations and other crap (you can just put them inside)

Just made it look like a basic camp and went adventuring, so there's no ugly ass leaf houses or anything similar. NPCs just hang around the campfire outside between the tents so it looks even better. You can also buy some carts and wagons so it'd resemble an actual camp even more.

I disagree. I am really having fun with the base building. All the other stuff is fun too!

Go play Elona then
All the magnificent and beautiful creations on the discord and twitter community, especially by Japanese players, would disagree with you.

dang aren't tents like 50+ gold bars? how are you decorating your base with multiple of them lol?

Don't do the base building then if you don't like it.

Stop telling other people how to play their single player game.

Small tent costs 14 gold or so (if i remember correctly), and its kinda better to buy two small ones than one big one size-wise. Two of them can prolly store almost everything a player might need in early-mid game if they don't wanna build stuff.

Tents are ok because it's portable. I m fine with not touching building mechanics. There are not many feedbacks on how great the building system is. If you disagreed with me then give reasons. How is it good compared with other games? The game is huge and awesome but it got to have focus and direction or it will get nowhere.

Base building is pretty much all I've done so far in this game...
