  • Join me in my Let's Play & Beginner Guide series with Humankind, a turn-based 4X strategy game heavily inspired by the Civilization series. It's developed by Amplitude Studios, the creators of Endless Legend and the Endless Space games. This series will be a bit of a beginner guide or walkthrough tutorial for those brand new to the game, as I'll explain how mechanics work and my reasoning for each decision as I play.
    You can purchase the game on Steam

    "A Tribe's Legacy" triggers only if you reach 10 science in the Neolithic era (it's a permanent bonus to your people).

    Cool continent shape, relatively empty space so there's room for expansion, cool resources and awesome climate (since I'm from continental and I hate winters - I love tropical/savanna in games). Also you didn't pick Zhou like all streamers I've seen so far. Looking forward to next episode!

    The placement of outposts and cities is what really gives me fits. I have opened up the map a good bit yet still cant pick where I want to settle. Afraid I will just screw it all up

    • @PraetorianHiJynx
      @PraetorianHiJynx  3 роки тому +2

      Well keep in mind that the starting food and production is just what your city will get initially, eventually it can grow to get all of the resources of the entire territory, at which point your city location won't be that important. Though do consider the defensiveness of the location, as that can be helpful when attacked. Honestly, district placement is probably more important than city placement in order to maximize yields and adjacency bonuses.

    Thanks for posting the video. Also, thanks for explaining sanctuary; I've been playing the game for a little while, but I didn't understand what sanctuary was.
    Also, I would have thought players would try to build an outpost in multiple territories during the Neolithic era. It's not clear to me why you waited so long to build your first outpost.

      @@PraetorianHiJynx To be fair, I did attempt a play through in which I would build outposts in more territories. I found that it doesn't take that much influence to build your first outpost, but it takes a whole lot more to build your second, like around 60.
      I'm at turn 12, and still just one outpost (which has become a city). I'll have enough influence to build a new outpost in about two or three turns.

    kinda wish you had placed the pyramid district one more to the left for the aesthetic/look of it, can you imagine looking up a cliff face to see a pyramid with a shining gold top at the peak, or looking down on the world from the artificial mountain your people created.

    • @PraetorianHiJynx
      @PraetorianHiJynx  3 роки тому +2

      What would the disadvantages be? Keep in mind that you can't turn the outpost into a city until you leave the Neolithic age, and an outpost does nothing on its own. It needs to be a city before you start producing influence and science in it, and also can't construct buildings in an outpost.

      I haven't had any issues getting alliances with other countries, however they either have to be a friendlier leader (leader traits can be very important) or they can't see you as weak. Best way to start up a friendly relationship is signing a trading agreement and a non-aggression pact, but the AI won't care about that if they see you as an easy target ;)
