I'm a guy who loves to play games. Mostly city building and Anno in particular. But other games, old, new, AAA or indie, if I like it, I play it. Feel free to leave a comment if you have any tips or suggestions for me!
So the new Anno 117 series will not be continuing, unfortunately. It just wasn’t performing as well as I had hoped.
Over the coming weeks I’ll be focusing more on OpenTTD content. I do want to experiment with some new ideas eventually, but I’m not exactly sure what yet.
If you have any suggestions, let me know in the comments below!
Ubisoft just dropped this trailer for the year 1 season pass. It’s very nicely done! Give it a watch and leave a like if you enjoyed it. I can’t wait to get my hands on the new content!
It’s one of those days… Everything was set to record a new episode of Anno 117, but near the end of what I thought was going to be a great one, I noticed I didn’t hit the “record” button.
So unfortunately, no new episode tonight. And due to all kinds of Christmas celebrations at work and school, the next one will be delayed until Saturday.
The wait is almost over! Anno 117 releases tomorrow, November 13th, and I’ll be diving straight into the campaign. I’ll also try to ramp up the upload schedule to scratch that new game hype itch.
We’ve finally reached the year 2050 and the end of this OpenTTD series. By the finish line, the company had:
- 347 trains - 490 road vehicles - 22 aircraft - 91 ships - 315 stations and over 4 billion euros in the bank!
It’s been an incredible journey building and managing this empire, and I hope you enjoyed watching it as much as I enjoyed playing. Don’t miss the final episode, you can watch it here
Stay tuned for more OpenTTD adventures coming soon!
We’re getting close to 100 subscribers, so I wanted to give you a quick channel update.
Right now, I’m running into some issues with DaVinci Resolve on my PC, so I’ll be switching to a new editing program. That means there might be some changes in how the videos look and it’ll take a bit of time to get used to the new software. The good news is that with school starting next week, I’ll have a bit more time to record and edit while my son is at school. Hopefully, that balances things out so I can still bring you at least two videos per week. Once the editing setup is sorted, I also plan to start some smaller side projects involving both Anno and OpenTTD, so stay tuned for those!
Thanks for the support, and I’ll see you in the next video!
Just a little sneak peek of the things I'm working on off camera. Most of it has been busy work, moving industry to the production island and setting up trade routes. But I found some time to do a tiny bit of beauty building in between.
Stay tuned for the next episode this weekend to see everything I’ve done!
Sad news, I was recording what was meant to be the final episode of my battle against the Hog in OpenTTD. Unfortunately, the AI kept crashing just 10 seconds after unpausing the game. I wasn’t able to fix it, and to make things worse, I accidentally overwrote my save due to a misclick.
So as sad as it is, there’s no real conclusion to that battle. But to be honest, I don't think I was going to win anyway.
If there’s a lesson to be learned here: always back up your save files! For now, the other series will continue as normal.
Sorry for the lack of Anno content lately. After a failed recording and some time off during my holidays, I didn't really feel motivated to continue. But good news: I’m planning to get the series going again soon!
It looks like Anno 117 won’t be coming out any time soon. The latest rumors point to a possible release date announcement during Gamescom 2025.
In any case, a new episode will be released before the end of the week, picking up right where we left off.
In the meantime, I’m also working on a video where I take on the best AI in OpenTTD, so keep an eye out for that one too!
Just a quick update: for the next two weeks I’ll be on holiday, spending some quality time in Italy with my wife and son. There will be one episode of OpenTTD coming out next Friday — so keep an eye out for that!
Unfortunately, the Anno episode I recorded turned out to be a bit of a disaster (technical stuff, you know how it goes), so I’ll have to redo it once I’m back.
Also — we’ve just hit 50 subscribers, and I’m incredibly grateful. Thank you all so much for the support!
