You have an editor

Did the other one get fried?

@@poilboiler fried lulz

@@poilboiler I was doing a trial with a different editor.

I dont know what the editor could really do, since its somewhat educational. I do think that there are a bit many “ahh hmm” moments

This is so painfully true

I’ve skipped over emperor and went straight to deity but I still feel that 🤣

Mood

I feel like people overexaggerate when it comes to how hard deity is. I play on deity all the time and it's honestly not that bad. Worst thing that can happen, and it's pretty rare, is that one random barb camp that spawns endless horsemen on turn 2 lmao..

that's me on lowest difficulty.

That’s one of my favorite images of all time lmfao

@@thegreatestdane8978 I'd honestly just reroll why bother with a shitty start in a deity game

@@mehmeteray1907 Mostly because we like to see potato suffer!

The iron reveal murked Potato's initial production district placement.

@@alex2005z i would have moved 2 tiles to the left and gone for the production bonuses, then got a naval city set up for his second one, would be a slightly slower start but you'd catch up pretty quick with the extra gold to help early game

@@ryandaniels476 That's the tile I was looking at as well.

That's always something to be wary of. Following the leader....right off a cliff.

Honestly it looked pretty good to me (a noob). I mean there are hills so that's already a plus.

@@danshakuimo Seemed like my standard game start location.. maybe twice I have gotten a small abundance, like spawning right on a wonder with a tile next to it that had faith per turn and a lake with + science.. sadly I wasted the start trying to get a pacifist domination victory before I realized cultists have been completely nerfed and that strategy is hardly viable anymore.

Himiko is hands-down, my favourite hero, tho I'm also a HUGE Hippolyta simp. The double Siege weapon attack and her Anti-Cav stats make her a fantastic front line unit.

That's a weird way to spell Mulan

Are we seriously simping for fictional and historical character in civ now?

At least they won't go thirsty.

@@poilboiler Qin Shi Huang: Wait a minute, this isn't immortality potion

It’s the Irish PotatoMcWhiskey Famine

Hungary for yields...

Then again, in my games this would still count as a decent start. Whenever I play any European civs I tend to spawn on a tiny grassland area between a tundra and a desert and that's annoying as hell. Desert is nice to have for the one Petra city, of course, but those are often the size of 3-4 cities in these spawns

The great McWhiskey Famine

Sounds like a McDonald's Sport event promotional burger.

Tansi!

Potato needs to do more videos, so we can get more Cree words!

@@cooolbigguy is that thank you?

@@LAZERAK47V2 Hey hey, we invented and took care of America for centuries before the colonizers came, giving the world chocolate, tomatoes, potatoes, rubber, and a land in balance with massive cities and trade haha

Maybe he could swap it for "but that's not the end of the turn" in future just to confuse us.

Seems like Potato uncovered the Sour Grapes luxury resource.

You can teleport Sinbad to another coastal city if you have one

I dont this is possible on deity or even prince

Might be doable on settler

I think it would be pretty fun if you could get a lot of heroes as ethiopia and rehire them with the huge faith boosts from stave churches. Maybe not all of them, but a lot of them/the best ones. Go for the hanging gardens to get an increased lifespan for heroes. Does the oracle give discounts for faith purchasing heroes? I find that heros kinda fall off in power once you hit the industrial/ atomic era.

Correction heroes fall off when the AI reseaches Steel.

@@lordlordington4159 not all of them fall off as hard though. Himiko doesn't all off at all, and Oya and the Twins want to be fighting units not cities in the first place, so not so much for them either. Maui and Herc can still use their charges just as well in the late game and in the early game,though outside of that they do fall off. Sinbad also cares more about enemy boats/ barb camps than cities anyway, so him falling off depends more on the map and may become useless as soon as the Classical Era hits, or still be amazing in the Future Era. Beowulf, Mulan, Arthur and Hippolyta do fall off hard with enemy walls though, and Anansi falls off because his scaling is awful, and starting with the Modern Era all he does is double your science and culture output for 6 turns, which is definitely not worth the faith cost. And personally I find Sun Wukong lackluster all game long.

You will come back :D

Is he the Spirit of the Law of Civilisation?

Thanks!

It was sorta obvious he had a Strategic at the capitol, actually, given there was only 1 Luxury and 2 Bonus visible in 2 rings of in place location. Typically you have 2 Luxuries in that radius if you don't have a Strategic. The surprise was that it was Iron rather than Horses.

A clickbait title if there ever was any. I'd consider this quite the decent start myself, and this guy claiming it is "LITERALLY the worst start ever" is just annoying. I'm used to potato posting clickbait titles by now, but this one was especially so.

@@samuelhakansson6680 I suspect he meant it in a tongue-in-cheek way. It seems like not a great start at first but becomes quite good as the game progresses.

@@michaelharris2178 Might be tongue-in-cheek, but its neither a great nor bad start. Its a completely average start (I'd say slightly good medium term, due to his isolated spawn). Starts like these are very common for me, and something I'll happily play off of on Deity. Isolated snow islands, flat desert (and Desert Folklore taken), not so much. I was kind of expecting such a start when I saw the title, and if tongue-in-cheek, a whole lot better than this.

@Krisztián Tóth Is Pécs pronounced like "peach" (Őszibarack) or "peich" (as rhymes with the American English pronunciation of "H")?

@Krisztián Tóth I'm not Hungarian but I'm Georgian, kh dz ch ch sh ts p f(p is a different letter and f is our p)

@Krisztián Tóth so I get what ur saying

@Krisztián Tóth Thanks. I'm usually pretty good at guessing how languages (at least ones that use the Latin alphabet) are pronounced, but Hungarian and Polish tend to confuse me. And Irish...I don't even bother. They invented their language just to piss off and/or embarrass the English.

English: has a pretty easy alphabet Every other European country: lines and dots (ä, ö, ü, š, è, ě, é...)!

@@alex2005z if I remember when he originally got that start it wasn’t even for a game, but a teaching video. And then he used that start for a china builder/wonder let’s play or stream.

What's the difference between mines and quarries? I've been playing this game since it's been out and still don't know.

Mines you put on regular hill tiles. Quarries are put on stone, marble, salt and maybe copper tiles.

Might be worth trying early dom as Sumeria or mid dom as Byzantium. Those are the two civs I’ve had the most luck with before the late game.

Never use YOUR army as hungary, that's the trick. Only use city state troops. They're almost free to upgrade.

Levy levy levy

@@ZeteticPhilosopher Byzantium is literally broken OP

@@Eclipto14 True, but to me they have similar play styles to Hungary, in that they're domination oriented, but are best in the early to mid game. Hence good practice for OP without being as frustrating as Hungary.

Potato clickbaits a lot. This is a perfectly fine start for your average game. I'd be generally happy with this if I got it. Not perfect, but it has some upsides (good early production, placed in a corner so you dont have to worry about early Deity AI aggression from that side etc.).

Yeah, I always have starts with 2 to 3 enemies surrounding me, either no food or no production... If I want to do early domination or expand much, the enemies always attack me with crossbowmen way too early... Every domination win I've done was late game

All very good but aint got nothin on CivTrader6

Just play and plan to git gud

It’s all thanks to his new editor 🤭 the cut reel is full of swears and cussing 🤣

Well, he baited several of us into clicking, so I guess "mission accomplished" for potato there. Its just ridiculous that you can claim that this is "LITERALLY" your worst start ever.

And it is a great city for culture and science like in this game 😁

It is not difficult to make that city good, its already a pretty decent start despite the nonsense Potato claims here.
