Medieval sandbox sim Noble Legacy just got much more realistic, but it’s the new town pets I’m most excited about

A significant update for Noble Legacy has been released, introducing substantial changes to the medieval simulation game developed by Studio 369. The update enhances town management, allowing for larger player towns and improved villager behavior, including new factors like temperature and cleanliness. Players can recruit villagers, assign tasks, and create production chains while managing local issues and defending against bandit raids. Titled "Life, Death, and Industry," the update adds survival elements, improves villager AI with unique traits and dialogues, and emphasizes health management through warmth and hygiene. New facilities like bathhouses and apothecaries are introduced, along with a system of afflictions affecting villager performance. The population cap has increased from 50 to 70, and players can implement kingdom-wide policies through edicts. The update also features the first unique hero recruit, Hardwin the Hermit, and introduces two new scenarios along with dynamic quest generation systems. Bandit behavior has shifted to focus on resource targeting, and players can now keep town pets that assist during raids. New trading options for livestock and visual updates to buildings and armor sets have been added. A custom game mode for difficulty adjustments and a creative mode for unrestricted building are also included. The update is live and available at a discounted price until April 27.
