To begin... Patron is *not* the same as Banished. It has notable differences, such as how citizens don't have to physically walk everywhere (letting larger towns exist without the game stuttering, but making it less realistic) to get goods, how houses by default have space for 6 people so populations aging up & dying is a nonissue, and how it has a research tree and a much more fleshed-out needs bar, on top of social classes.
That said, it's giving me real Banished vibes, especially in the music, the graphics-style, and the gameplay.
Anyone else playing it right now? What are your thoughts?
