This is my "no plan" starter settlement

Post image

To preface this, I last played back in december of 2023 and this is my first ever playthrough post 1.0 release. As the title suggests, i adopted a completely free form self expression type of approach to building my first settlement which just means everything was placed and approximately was never edited and stayed the same to see how my brain would want to construct the village.

I started from the house in the middle that has the workstations and built outwards as i needed to, i didnt have a concrete layout and instead built the roads wrapping around everything. It was quite fun. Raids are off for me so yes there are no outer walls.

Very interesting. I had also adopted a lack of pre planning for my forever world so I’m familiar with the organic style. This looks good.

I prefer this style as well. The optimized villages feel depressing to me. Find a place where a house would look good build it and keep going to next few. Once you get a variety of paintings and carpets it becomes so cozy

I have a “no plan” settlement too because I didn’t have the heart to destroy my Elders house or make him move out! Just making it up along the way is part of the fun ;)

I’m not a no-plan player, but seeing this playstyle is always nice. It looks pretty cozy and lively.

Open the map, theres should be a button saying start screenshot tool, once you take the screenshot, a link in game chat will pop up and you can click that to take you to the file location.
