Welcome @yataro79 !

Not exactly a newbie, I have been registered for years.. or was until I tried to visit today .. I guess the cleanup caught me, too.  Anyway, I am back for a visit to see what new mods are around.

I play Banished most every day and am always trying to make it harder to play as after 1941 hours in the game (which is, for anyone interested, one year younger than my birth year!  ) I pretty much have tried every scenario I can think up.

Good luck to the real newbies .. Banished is easy to learn but very hard to master.

@TuffDwarf you are truly player. 
What people give clues of their age, i have notice many "senior" players.
Dont now if you are the oldest on this forum.
Go on play till you are 100 years old. 

Welcome everyone!

Hi. I used to play Banished off and on for the last couple of years. Then Hurricane Micheal hit and I lost everything.  I've finally gotten another (new to me) computer and have been slowly getting back into my games.  I play mostly solo games as I hate it when other players change things on my bases. lol I have some other medical issues but since they won't kill me I'll just skip them. lol I started to really get into Banished again and found this forum.  I think it will really help me a lot.  I can't mod or do anything technical so i just read and play and sometimes use mods. I will try to donate to help out but I can only do it at the beginning of the month as I am on Social Security disability.  I am glad I found this forum.  Thank you for creating it.

Hello everyone!  I'm relatively new to Banished. I learned of it from watching youtube videos of Anno 1800. I liked the people doing them so much that I watched their Banished series(es) and got hooked. I also want to give a heartfelt THANK YOU to all the modders of Banished, they really opened things up and made it a fresh new game again.

Hello, fellow Banisheders!

I started playing Banished way back in October/November of 2015.  I was playing constantly all day long.  I used it as a distraction from pain due to a car accident a couple of years prior.  Also as a way to keep my brain active and thinking to help put the puzzle pieces back in order (though, I'm still working on both - memory and pain management, 6 years later - it's as good as it gets... lol).

I really loved Banished!  I would watch/read tutorials, search for good map seeds, and towards when I stopped playing, I had a fully developed map (I think large).  I'm usually not one to listen to the music and sounds from games, (I listen to my own music playlist) but, I really loved this one and I kept it playing.  Now, whenever I think back to my fond memories of the game, I hear the music in my head.  And it makes me want to play again!!!

So... I finally gave into the urges and started playing again a few days ago and am LOVING it!  But, I noticed there were some changes.  In fact, the saddest of all, my favorite map seed is no longer showing up the way it did before.  From what I've read, it had something to do with a game update.  So, I decided to look at mods to give me better maps (flat), playing conditions (easier survival), etc... On Steam's Workshop I found plenty of amazingly talented modders, even some on this forum (RedKetchup, Tom Sawyer, and Discrepancy) and am fangirling it a bit!    I found this forum through a link on one of the mods to download the new beta, so I'm off to download that!  Y'all (modders) are amazing!  Thank you so much for using your brilliant talent and sharing your creations with us!

Now to find the right combinations of mods to give me the fun game play I crave!  I have plenty of time to play and discover!

Cheers!
Dariyah =)

Hello friends !
I play Banished for many years and really love this type of game (Anno series, Dwarf Fortress, Black and White...).
I'm French, so, please, be tolerant with my very approximative grammar

Oh pour cela ne t'en fais pas... tu n'est pas tout seul

Bienvenue en tout cas
