Do you prefer or have monsters roaming around your ioa or none? (Or more generally elsewhere such as building in the story towns that have monsters vs buildertopias that have none).

I’ve always been split between the two. Some element of tower defense makes the game feel alive. But ghosts killing livestock is a no go for me

Furrowfield is the first town you can build up in DQB2.

Just curious how did you approach building it during the story and post game?

The builder bell is several blocks (3 or 4?) higher the surrounding terrain. The base area itself is of varying elevation as well. Did you try to flatten it all out by raising the town up?

Unlike the other islands where monsters are funneled into one direction, Furrowfield monsters can go all around the town, although the ones in the battle tend to come from the north.

There's lots of material available as well. From the wood material you learn, the stone that can be harvested from the windmill or church. Which ones did you end up using?

did you keep that small hill in the corner (I dont think it could be destroyed during the story).

For me personally, I've built it differently several times in my play throughs. I did one big building with everyone inside, and angled roofs in order to prevent the spores from spawning there. Then i did a normal town with many smaller buildings which looked better. At one point I thought of just building everything underground and avoid the spores entirely.

I havent done a post game build yet for my story towns.

I've been thinking of doing a floating build (either a flying airship/spaceship/sky town) or an underwater city.

But I was wondering how NPCs would behave. Would they wander off and just jump off something floating? or open the door in an underwater city and float up to the surface?
already on my land builds, I find NPCs in weird areas.

Every time I sail somewhere and come back to IoA, I automatically receive a key.

what is it for?

There's probably around 15-20 different types of kitchens you can build in this game. Do you have a favorite one?

I usually end up making a simple kitchen and Dining room in order to get the restaurant icon.

Does any specific type of kitchen lead to residents cooking more?

When trying to access different floors, do you prefer to build stairs? Elevators using push and pull magnets? Ladders or vines where you need to climb? Or even springs?
