Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 0.29/day in the week to Sep 1 → 0.57/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 25 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 10 places towards #1, and the 2,413 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

This game is terrible, and I love it. Don't buy it! Life Is Feudal is a game for the nichest of niche playerbases, and even so was an utter failure in delivering on its promises around its hayday. Today, it stands as nothing but sheer abandonware, seeing no updates since around 2017 - at which time the developers attempted to make it into an MMO, and then promptly demolished that version of the game, leaving behind only this one. Modding and a closely-knit, small community are what have kept any playerbase at all within the game's few servers. The gameplay is grueling, grindy to an absurd degree even, and is *not* for the usual player to enjoy in the least. It's survival mechanics and cooperative gameplay taken to an extreme, and while some would argue it's "hardcore" - in reality it's just kind of tedious. The reason I've played it so much is because the game scratches some *very* particular itch for me at the moment. It was on sale for 3€ when I got it, which is not a terrible price tag at all for something like this. It could be argued the game's hardly worth that much, but in my case it was well worth the few bucks. In good conscience however, I cannot recommend it to anyone else at all. The game fundamentally is not a good one, and I recognize that - I simply have a knack for acquired tastes, and this is definitely one. Again, don't buy it!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_tjerqL7Na8 [b]I bought this game with hope so bright, Medieval dreams — what a cool sight! But what I found was pure despair, A broken mess beyond repair. The devs have left, the servers dead, No updates left, just bugs instead. The graphics look like 2002, And controls? Just pure voodoo! "Life is Feudal: Your Own" Don't buy! This terrible game is not worth paying for! "Life is Feudal: Your Own" Must Die! Let it rest in the manure, I will say nothing more The mechanics make no sense at all, Why does farming feel like a wall? The learning curve? A mountain steep, No one plays—just bots that sleep. Glitches galore, they'll never fix, A sinking ship of broken bricks. Alone it's dull, with friends? A dream, This game’s a scam, a failed meme. "Life is Feudal: Your Own" Don't buy! This terrible game is not worth paying for! "Life is Feudal: Your Own" Must Die! Let it rest in the manure, I will say nothing more I tried to love it, gave it time, But every step felt like a crime. So take my warning, hear me well— This game belongs in gaming hell! "Life is Feudal: Your Own" Don't buy! This terrible game is not worth paying for! "Life is Feudal: Your Own" Must Die! Let it rot where pigs do lie — goodbye, feudal lie! [/b]
A German translation you will find after the english text. Life is Feudal: Forest Villag = FV Life is Feudal: Your Own = YO Life is Feudal: MMO = MMO A word to the negative reviews you can see here on Steam : I think the biggest mistake the devs/publisher has made is that they advertise this game YO like the MMO. If you see the shop page of YO it looks like a inhabited world with towns and villages , NPC and huge battles. This is not what you get. You get a game for YOUR OWN - if you play this game as single player you are the only human on the island. You will never find a town or even a single NPC. You will not find a loot box what give you a cool armor or weapon. This things simple did not exists in this game . You have what you can craft - that is. So the player pay for this game and did not get what they have seen or what they expect. So they give a negative review. If you want to play battles or do quests or with a world full of NPC or expect your own kingdom after a day or two this game is NOT for you. About the game : YO is about finding your own story in medieval world. You start on an island with nothing than a peace of bread. The only goal is to survive. Find something to eat , search for useful things , craft your own tools and start your life. The game is not really helpful for this - the UI is not intuitive. The best you can do is to hit all button and see what happen. Right Click on everything you can or use [Q]. And learn about what you can do with this item. The key [Q] is your only friend - point on an item and click it. Check out the skill tree ( [L] by default). Click on the skills and its progress number 30 , 60 ... and see what skills and reciped you get from this. For example you can build a furnace to smelt the ore early on - but you also need to learn how to use it. This is only possible with a better skill. But the game will not tell you this. The game progress is slow - really slow. To get a town like you see on the image of the shop page it will take weeks or possible month of playtime. If you start the game the first time you need to setup your own server for it. If you play as single player dont use the defaults. Check out the hints for the settings and set everything what slow down the game to higher values . The multiplication for terraforming better set to max and the skill points multiplicator atleast to a much bigger number. You will find limited bugs. Not really important or gamebraking.. For example the rest animation. You can hit 9 ( by default ) to rest and get your max stamina back. Normally the character sit down on the ground for it. But sometimes not - the character simple freeze until you press 9 again and stop resting. Not a problem but still a bug. The build system is like the crafting system - you must find out how it works. If you have played FV than you will find it simple. It is more or less the same. Summary : If you want to life in a medieval worldand this game is for you. If you like to play for your own with out other player this game is for you. If you search for a really relaxing game - this is for you. You must be wiiling to find out things and simple let it go. This game will never force you to do something. If you dont like this - this game is not for you. Ein Wort zu den negativen Bewertungen, die Sie hier auf Steam sehen können: Ich denke, der größte Fehler der Entwickler/Herausgeber ist, dass sie dieses Spiel YO wie das MMO bewerben. Wenn Sie sich die Shop-Seite von YO ansehen, sieht es aus wie eine bewohnte Welt mit Städten und Dörfern, NPCs und riesigen Schlachten. Das ist nicht das, was Sie bekommen. Sie bekommen ein Spiel nur für sich selbstS – wenn Sie dieses Spiel als Einzelspieler spielen, sind Sie der einzige Mensch auf der Insel. Sie werden nie eine Stadt oder auch nur einen einzigen NPC finden. Sie werden keine Lootbox finden, die Ihnen eine coole Rüstung oder Waffe gibt. Diese Dinge gab es in diesem Spiel einfach nicht. Sie haben, was Sie herstellen können – sonst nichts. Der Spieler zahlt also für dieses Spiel und bekommt nicht, was er gesehen hat oder was er erwartet. Also geben viele leider eine negative Bewertung ab. Wenn Sie Schlachten spielen oder Quests machen wollen oder in einer Welt voller NPCs spielen oder nach ein oder zwei Tagen Ihr eigenes Königreich erwarten, ist dieses Spiel NICHT für Sie. Über das Spiel: Bei YO geht es darum, in einer mittelalterlichen Welt Ihre eigene Geschichte zu finden. Sie beginnen auf einer Insel mit nichts als einem Stück Brot. Das einzige Ziel ist zu überleben. Finden Sie etwas zu essen, suchen Sie nach nützlichen Dingen, stellen Sie Ihre eigenen Werkzeuge her und beginnen Sie Ihr Leben. Das Spiel ist dafür leider nicht wirklich hilfreich – die Benutzeroberfläche ist nicht intuitiv. Das Beste, was Sie tun können, ist, alle Tasten zu drücken und zu sehen, was passiert. Rechtsklicken Sie auf alles, was Sie können, oder verwenden Sie [Q]. Und erfahren Sie, was Sie mit diesem Gegenstand tun können. Die Taste [Q] ist Ihr einziger Freund – zeigen Sie auf einen Gegenstand und klicken Sie darauf. Schauen Sie sich den Fähigkeitsbaum an (standardmäßig [L]). Klicken Sie auf die Fähigkeiten und ihre Fortschrittsnummer 30, 60 … und sehen Sie, welche Fähigkeiten und Rezepte Sie dadurch erhalten. Sie können zum Beispiel schon früh einen Ofen bauen, um das Erz zu schmelzen – aber Sie müssen auch lernen, wie man ihn benutzt. Dies ist nur mit einer besseren Fähigkeit möglich. Aber das Spiel wird Ihnen das nicht sagen. Das Spiel läuft langsam ab – wirklich langsam. Um eine Stadt zu bekommen, wie Sie sie auf dem Bild der Shop-Seite sehen, wird es Wochen oder möglicherweise Monate an Spielzeit brauchen. Wenn Sie das Spiel zum ersten Mal starten, müssen Sie Ihren eigenen Server dafür einrichten. Wenn Sie als Einzelspieler spielen, verwenden Sie nicht die Standardeinstellungen. Sehen Sie sich die Hinweise zu den Einstellungen an und setzen Sie alles, was das Spiel verlangsamt, auf höhere Werte. Die Multiplikation für Terraforming sollte besser auf Maximum eingestellt werden und der Multiplikator für Fertigkeitspunkte zumindest auf eine viel größere Zahl. Sie werden einige Bugs finden. Nicht wirklich wichtig oder spielbeeinträchtigend. Zum Beispiel die Ruheanimation. Sie können 9 (standardmäßig) drücken, um sich auszuruhen und Ihre maximale Ausdauer wiederherzustellen. Normalerweise setzt sich der Charakter dafür auf den Boden. Aber manchmal nicht – der Charakter friert einfach ein, bis Sie erneut 9 drücken und aufhören, sich auszuruhen. Kein Problem, aber trotzdem ein Fehler. Das Bausystem ist wie das Handwerkssystem – Sie müssen herausfinden, wie es funktioniert. Wenn Sie FV gespielt haben, werden Sie es einfach finden. Es ist mehr oder weniger dasselbe. Zusammenfassung: Wenn Sie in einer mittelalterlichen Welt leben möchten, ist dieses Spiel für Sie. Wenn Sie gerne alleine ohne andere Spieler spielen, ist dieses Spiel für Sie. Wenn Sie nach einem wirklich entspannenden Spiel suchen, ist dies das Richtige für Sie. Sie müssen bereit sein, Dinge herauszufinden und einfach loszulassen. Dieses Spiel wird Sie nie zwingen, etwas zu tun. Wenn Ihnen das nicht gefällt, ist dieses Spiel nichts für Sie.
Many of the complaints about this game are just from extremely impatient people. The UI is not that complicated and doesn't take that long to figure out and those that seem to struggle with it just don't take the time to learn how it works or just don't know how to read. Yes the game is grindy IF you play it with the default settings. You are supposed to work with a decent size group of players. each player in your group is supposed to have a role to fill such as one player is a dedicated blacksmith and another player is dedicated to farming. If you try to do every job role by yourself with the default game settings then you are not gonna have fun and that is not the fault of the game that is the fault of the player trying to play the game incorrectly. Now you can play the game solo or with a smaller group of friends by creating a game world and changing the settings for your game such as increasing the interaction speed, or making progression of skills faster and increasing the max skill cap so that you can major in multiple fields. The game isn't hard at all if you take the time to read whats in front of you and explore the menus in the game. plus the wiki is also available if you don't understand something AND the community is filled with many great groups of people that are willing to help and teach you how to play. But in it's entirety it is a great game and has lots of content for you to enjoy and allows a lot of creativity. The game is not abandoned it is just finished. even with the hours that I have invested into the game i have only participated in about half of what the game has to offer. So don't take all those negative reviews to heart. Many of them are just from impatient people who were just not meant to play this game.
THIS IS A RUSSIAN GAME. By buying it (or even just adding it to your wish list), you support the terrorist state. [url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/290080/Life_is_Feudal_Your_Own/?curator_clanid=42985013]ЦЕ РОСІЙСЬКА ГРА. Купуючи її (чи навіть просто додавши до бажаного), ви підтримуєте ворогів нашої країни.[/url] Despite that, the servers are crap, empty & you're clipping through half of the assets.
This game could have been amazing and extremely popular but the devs decided that they would rather go for a quick cash grab but making a pay to play MMO instead of just developing this one, truly is a shame they couldnt see what their fan base did. Greedy devs in it for the money. Shame.
this game used to be the pinnacle of medieval sandbox pvp and pve experience, im a stark believer that the MMO's implementation killed this game outright and caused what could have been something really special to slip through the cracks. Heres to hoping another studio can do better by this hidden gem and revive its player base.
I think this version of the game should have some NPCS to interact with, whether enemies or small villages, because if the game allows the player to play solo there should be more things in the game world to engage the player.
Игра умерла в 2018. С тех пор никаких обновлений и фиксов багов. Багов много. В своё время игра хорошая, перспективная, но сейчас к покупке не рекомендую.
Okay, I've played over 400 hours of this game. I'm comfortable giving it an initial review. It's a little slow and grindy, with an exceptionally complex crafting system, and requires a relatively beefy computer to run it with a playable frame-rate. But in spite of those things, there's something oddly addictive about the game. I like that I can host a private server of my own and invite friends to play (I even bought a spare copy for a friend to test this). Honestly, it's a game that I feel many people would either love or hate. If you like the idea of minecraft with upgraded graphics, and far fewer hostile mobs, you might like it. Some of the game mechanics take a while to get used to. I was surprised to find that mine-shafts that have been reinforced will still cave in (eventually), combat isn't very intuitive (you have to be mindful of the "dangerous" part of the weapon and what part of your weapon that strikes your target), though these are elements added for realism and immersion, so they're not "bugs".
