  1. I love the idea on swapping compost as well as a compost bed. Corner stairs and cobblestone walls which allow grass to grow underneath are welcome too, those would be nice additions. I also think an agricultural trader is needed with so many plants. I started in a temperate spawn travelled 30k blocks to get to the tropics for tropical plants like soybeans, bamboo, papyrus, kapok, etc. Having a trader who can circumvent that would be great albeit the cost of items would be expensive. Lastly, I agree on hoes, you build and forget them. Having a continued use would be great if its not a micromanaging chore. 

  2. I agree with Saricane that your better off exploring. I did the same thing as you, going to put to specifically search for it but never found it until I did regular exploring and came across it. Now I have more than I need. Medium fertility soil is not bad, you may use that until you run across it. Also, it’s definitely spawnable in a temperate or even dry area, because that’s where I found mine, not in the tropics.

  3. Here are some:

    HUD - displays season, temperature and time. Personally, I think this is a must have.

    VSprospector info - this mod saves prospecting pickaxe reading for the area you’ve used it in via an transparent intrusive overlay on the map. Normally you have to write it down, remember somehow or use the pick multiple times. This is a must have.

    Volumetric Shaders mod - I highly recommend this you can run it, it makes the game more atmospheric.

    Braziers - this adds a cheap lighting solution which can be built from metal scraps which otherwise don’t have a use in game right now

    Craft clothing - you may expect you can make your own cloths but you can’t so pick up this mod. Clothing is very important for cold winters if you’re playing in a temperate or northern area.

    Reduced grind

    Stackable - increases stack sizes and makes item management easier

  4. I choose homesteading because I like collecting stuff like the crops, flowers and animals it’d bring so it’s an obvious choice for me. I just hope the new stuff will be interesting and purposeful towards gameplay and not for the save of collecting. Additionally, I’m really hoping that we’ll see mounts to ease the burden of travelling far distances given the new incentive of more stuff to collect and explore new frontiers.
     

    A nice touch would be to be able to set your mount to follow path blocks in your road network or a marked location on your map. That be more immersive than just fast travel. I’d also like to see more hostile animals like bears, leopards and lions. I prefer those over stuff like drifters for realism.
     

    My second option would be the lovecraftian stuff given it’d have more stuff to collect, though, better terrain in regains to river and oceans would be nice. 

  5. Hey folks. I’ve started a silent play through of Vintage Story. Why silent? Well I want to do something unique in that I focus on showcasing gameplay through the various  tech ages and to immerse the viewer in the game world without it chatter. Moreover, I couldn’t do commentary now because I don’t have a decent mic. 
     

    Gameplay is paced to flesh out the various concepts in game with the addition of some quality of life mods without deviating from the vanilla experience. Also, I’ve included the seed which is great in my opinion. It was created in 1.14 and has every resource you’d need in the immediate area around spawn and a nice view. If you’d like the seed check out the video description. Alternatively, I’ve saved a game world which you may download and add to your save folder to play it.
     

    Feel free to pop in and join the experience. If you’ve got ideas as to what I should do feel free to comment.
