Hope you keep making Old World content. I've been really enjoying this game and the devs should get more love and attention for how good it is. Keep it up!
I really like how the cities seem to have way more character than a city in the civ series. I think it helps that each city contributes to a global pool of resources, so there's more substance to the idea of specializing your cities
Huh? What do you mean? Cities in Civ series also have 'character' - capital city / petra city / my only costal city / my only mountain city / super river city etc. etc. "I think it helps that each city contributes to a global pool of resources" - gold / science / culture / faith in Civ 5 - am I a joke to you? "so there's more substance to the idea of specializing your cities" - guild cities in Civ 5 - am I a joke to you?
Loving the series, caught a bit of the initial live stream, and have been watching you play this run since. Picked up the game because it seemed awesome! Thanks for the amazing content Potato and happy belated birthday, I missed the birthday stream sadly!
I found a scientist lady in an event at the start of my game, then I promptly married her. After that my science game was phenomenal! We are also churning out little nerd children that she tutors, in order to secure the gains.
I had a leader who was a 12/10/1/4 Diplomat with Rome. 78 global science + another 31 as governor of capitol; 112 global civics + 16 as gov. It was a sad day when he died.
Potato, I only know about this game and want to buy it because of you and your channel. Do you have an Epic creator tag or something that I can do to help out?
I would like to see you do at least one or two more series on this game before you go back to Civ 6 content. I also really hope this game comes to steam because I would really appreciate it and buy it in an instant being epic store exclusive sucks. (Though the game looks tougher then Civ and I would say is a bit weirdly balanced compared. It is cool of having the different types of production for each branch of actions, and then goes into a national stockpile when not used. The only improvement I say could work out is maybe being able to be able to do two sets of the three categories at once but with maybe a 20% hit in the points gained by two or maybe all production types. It could even be a 50% penalty or more if you wanted to have three productions at once. Penalties maybe being more or less if you believe it should be more or less penalizing doing a more OP flexibility with creation of your empire. Just watching the gameplay, it really seems you are limited and messed up by not being able to contently put down discontent without harming other goals that should be equally important, like settle, or bolster your Amry.) Also could you do a Civ 6 game with sukritact's resources, sukritact's ocean resources, on monopoly mode, with the EPS mod. I have been personally doing that and been having a lot of fun (even though my fun usually is me just taking at most 50 turns most games, making a misclick or something, and then restartarting. Though not a lot of progress is made still fun just doing the city planning and optimizing future plans for the city [FYI I just play on King difficultly since I don't like the AI getting unfair buffs when in reality they should be better at city, wonder, and district placement according to their buffs they have, along with managing other tile improvements. It would also be nice if they would be a little more aggressive settling new cities. What are they running City projects a lot? They seem to always have less production then me the player. /Currently also using AI+ mod. Not seeing any difference in AI behavior but I would like to see if you think the AI is improved with it on or not/]). P.S. Sorry for all the text but these were just all the ideas that came to me while watching parts of the video, that probably took maybe 30 mins to type it all out on my phone.
Depends on how far along you are in the game and how far you push abusing the mechanics. Lategame, you can have half a dozen courtiers who can tutor your heir 3 times each before s/he reaches adulthood (yes, if you start the tutor mission the child gets the benefit even if they reach adulthood before the 3 years of the mission are over) That's +18(ish) in raw stats before the heir even gets the chance to level. In addition, you can assassinate your child to get the grandchild to inherit. That way you have very young rulers on the throne who you can develop for quite some time. So yes, 8-10 cumulative stats is extremely low for later rulers. Earlygame, you have neither the courtiers nor the money to spend on tutoring your heir, so the ruler will be much worse stats-wise, and you can't assassinate anyone so your rulers have low stats when they claim the throne and they're already old when they do so. That means you have neither time to develop them nor the incentive to chose additional stats over immediate benefits during events, which lowers their stats gains even further.
Wish I could play this game, it constantly crashes my GPU (artifact full screen) and the GPU is fine, I stress tested it and I play hours on end on other games with 99% usage on it, this game even on Low with barely 40% crashes on me, not sure if driver issue or game issue but its specific to this game only, sad times, waste of money for me, seems fun.
May be worth speaking to the developers if possible. Do check your drivers etc too, naturally. I run on a 970gtx, let's face it, fairl old now, but it runs absolutely fine. 👍
@@MrMolova I actually still got my old 970 lmao might switch to test, but i did reinstall drivers everything of course, yet this is the only game that does it so its strange. I sent a message on discord see if they say anything
My insane Alexander imprisoned his son in law and someone else in the family because he thought they were ploting to kill him. I had to re marry my future queen because of this. Insane trait sukkkkks.
Nice potateety!! I don't get 99% of what you'r saying or talking about, I guess I need to read the manual first, just as the good old days... oh, looks at your twitter also...
Hope you keep making Old World content. I've been really enjoying this game and the devs should get more love and attention for how good it is. Keep it up!
Potato playing Rome: "Christianity has been founded in...one of my cities ? I don't really want Christianity in my city..."
Oh no...
watching his insane military income bounce off of the 2000 cap every turn lmao
i guess that a mechanic/cap he did not know about so could not teach about.
Potato: "oh, it's a trojan horse."
Potato: "... let it in to the city"
I love this new game Potato! I really hope we'll see more of it! Awesome series - loads of love from Denmark
I really like how the cities seem to have way more character than a city in the civ series. I think it helps that each city contributes to a global pool of resources, so there's more substance to the idea of specializing your cities

Judaism, Christianity and Manichaeism are all monotheistic religions.
Potato McWhiskey: let's have them all and make polytheism

"Divorce my husband. Which would upset him." Oh really? Would it now.
Don't forget to appoint governors in your cities after you build a garrison to increase output. Also you have an unused luxuries
You can queue up improvements as well. Saves a lot of time to just queue up the improvement triangles
MY QUEEN! *click click click click click*
ah yes, the video i have been waiting for today
Hope this eventually comes to Steam because I don't want to touch EGS with a 20-foot pole.
I would certainly buy this game on steam, but unfortunately it seems like it's an EGS exclusive so it's a no for me sadly
I had a leader who was a 12/10/1/4 Diplomat with Rome. 78 global science + another 31 as governor of capitol; 112 global civics + 16 as gov. It was a sad day when he died.
Atia of the Julii! Rome HBO feels.
I think Potato imprisoned his child
Potatoe went down the same exact route Rome irl did with regards to Christianity
Chariots (and cavalry in general) have bonus dmg on flat open terrain.
Potato, I only know about this game and want to buy it because of you and your channel. Do you have an Epic creator tag or something that I can do to help out?
Religion in Old World: "Freedom of religion for all!"
Religion in Civ: "PURGE THE INFIDELS!"
Potato, I think if you look at all people you can free your player heir, who was one of the people you imprisoned.
This game is not on steam, is it?
EG exclusive. Bite the bullet and but, its worth it. 😍👍
I will eventually buy this game just for the joy of every reference to a tutor giving me an excuse to say "Tute on, son! Tute on!"
Potato, why don't you put governs into your cities? That helps a lot with the stats of your cities.
I would like to see you do at least one or two more series on this game before you go back to Civ 6 content.

Remember when Potato said that 8 to 10 cumulative stats was typically a great ruler in this game? I think he may have underestimated.

@@michaelkensbock661 then do the same in semester play instead of years... It can be good!

Damn I thought you were fucked when everyone died a few episodes ago. Her stats are rolling in though
Man I wish there was some other way to get this game w/out epic store. I've had such bad luck with epic store.
Hopefully it'll be released on Steam after the exclusive term ends.

Kids: Mom, can we have Civ 6?
Mom: We have Civ 6 at home!
*the Civ 6 we have at home*
My best leader so far had 19 points total.
Potato: Yea we’ll do Christian Rome. I know it isn’t exactly like history....
Emperor Constantine: 🥺 Am I a joke to you??
YAS QUEEN
My leaders all have similar stats total....
