This is what I wanted from this channel. I won't sit through 3 hours, but I still want the k ni knowledge nuggets out of the content. Thank you for this.🙏👊

Please continue this, I really think this is the best format for civ videos and not enough people are making content like this. Great video, keep it up Saxy!

I recently started Civ, never played any game of the series before. I must say your channel is probably the best guide channel for pretty much any game I have ever played, thanks for this!

The reasons for you making this type of series is exactly why I rarely finish a game. Once I get to the point where I can play on auto pilot, I just exit out, because it's super boring at that point.

1st I really like long lets play series as I tend to watch them while at work. That being said. I really enjoy what you are doing here. Short and sweet with a great way of explaining your strategy before hand and during game play. I do the same with starts. I take what I am given and go from there.

This is exactly the Civ content I’ve wanted!! Keep it up, bite sized strategy is the best way to keep my watching

This series deserves a sub!

Because you have shortened your complete game to one video, it was a deserving subscription to your videos leaving me to still watch others I subscribe to for gameplays. Thanks.

This idea is very great just around 30min video with full of information about everything really liking it keep it up!

Really liked this video and concept - I often enjoy being able to watch the whole series because I get to see all the little decisions that culminate into a winning move, but I ended up enjoying this much more - and the time commitment (for me anyways) was much more palatable for my work/life balance haha. One suggestion I would have for you would be to include the victory/loss turn at the end and maybe some discussion on what decisions you made that sped up or slowed down achieving your victory condition.

I like this idea alot! Plz do Australia next

This type of Series is assume, I just purchased Civ 6 and tried playing it for the first time…..OMG this game is overwhelming, I have spent more time on KZfaq researching the game then actually playing the game so far, so please keep this type series going….and by the way I would support your full walkthrough showing step by step guide…keep up the great content mate

Wow, subscribed. This is PERFECT content. With taking care of a growing family I don't have time for a multiepisode let's play but I can watch this while cooking dinner or whatever and learn some strategy. Perfect!

I really liked this presentation. It helped me win as Nubia in Diety for the first time :) Thank you

"Legend of Saxy Civilization"... Very very good fun this one man! I enjoyed it a lot.

I enjoyed this quite a bit. You approach the game as a series of inflection points and describe how you adapted at the time. I enjoy turn-by-turn breakdowns in the early game, since that's when the experts show off the higher level stuff that can take down Deity AIs. That's sort of what you did here, since you basically won the game with your early game tactics. Can't wait to see which civ/scenario/win condition you take on next!

Good luck in 2020, this format is better. I watched pretty much all education stuff you've uploaded about districts, city-states etc. Try to mention that understanding most of what you say is directly linked to those tutorials, gotta boost views on across all of those as well.

great idea of a series for 2020, saxy. i like the comprimized style. great that you showed how to plan a multiple districts grid near your capital with the map tacks in early game. hud ribbon = on during the complete video would be great, so that we viewers can see how far behind / in front (science, culture, military strength etc) you are compared to the ki players during your walkthrough :-)

Really like this format a lot more then a full game play!

nice i stopped watching lets plays and this series made it fun again. thank you

Great video ! I would slow down a bit in the early phase and give maybe a few more informations on policies and cities placement, but that's indeed much more enjoyable when a full game is compressed to less than an hour. Could you maybe also add the ribbon where we see every civ's faith, science and culture ?

Great idea! I always find I watch the first hour or so of a lets play, cause those are relatively interesting!

Love the format.

Thanks man. This might be just the kind of stuff i needed. I am a beginner who enjoys the game very much but because of lack of knowledge what strategy to follow (and how to implentate) i get confused and bored after the early game. Seeing how the mindset of a veteran works will help a lot.

I like this new series idea, the edited content is where you really appeal to me the most. Hope it sustains.

To each their own, I definitely enjoyed this but I have also loved putting Potato McWhiskey's 8+hr let's plays on my 2nd monitor while working.

Love this format!

Looking forward to some losses to be explained, that would round up a great new format!

This feels like it has a high, unrealized potential. You still looked at things move by move, when you could have detail some of the large-scale strategies that you were using (choice of districts, important techs to aim for, key policies, important components of the war (think "Gorgo then got catapults, which I dealt with in x way" or "I focused fire to gain control of x strategic position"), government types...). I’d recommend you create some supporting materials to help you presentation be clearer. Make maps, make point-by-point lists of your developement plans, make a list of the changes to your strategy that your geography brings, list your diplomatic goals... Your video lacked visuals. Accelerated gameplay actually isn’t very interesting, and since your aren’t making a let’s play, you aren’t forced to show the game at all times. Most of the micro decisions aren’t important enough for this format. Look at the large scale of things, because that’s the entire concept of such shorter videos: a civ game, summed up, with key strategic decisions explained. Let’s plays are boring because we have to sit through so much micro decisions, which aren’t meaningful compared to the macro decisions that are made, such as long term strategies

Best series on this channel

This is amazing, going through a multi-hour playthrough can be quite boring but this is premium content Keep doing this and I will probably watch all the videos from start to finish :P

I like this format! Keep em rolling 😊

very nice format. this breaks all the important content down to a reasonable amount of playtime for viewers. thank you. pls do culture victory on kupe next.

Love the this video idea! Can you do a culture victory next?

I’m early on in a “Huge” “Marathon” game with this lovely young lady. This is a pleasant break let alone some great angles/advise! Great content and Thank You!. edit: just to add, my biggest challenge is planning for each of my cities to have a ‘Nubian Pyramid’ and be close enough to each other to be practical. The pyramid is too powerful to not employ especially in a 1500 turn game.

Great concept and execution, now to get enough gameplay to make it last! Could make religious victories and passive culture more watchable!

Really enjoy this format and your channel

+1 for compressed playthroughs

god damn this series is exactly what i was looking for, thank you youtube recommendations! excellent video dude , please make more just like this :) btw do you also play endless space 2? would like something like this for that game too

What did you do for your Pantheon in this game? (By the way, I've loved this new series of yours! Like some people, I also was bored of watching endless let's play videos. This was encouraging enough for me to sign up for your channel and turn the bell on!!!! 😬👍)

I really like this new format. Maybe also do spin-off videos talking in more depth about a specific period in each game

Great idea for a new civ 6 series. Thank you so much and please keep going to create this kind of videos.

Great start of a very interesting format! Will definitely follow. For future episodes I’m really interested in a diplomatic victory. Read a lot of mixed opinions on this type of victory, but would love some of your insight & practical tips. Thanks!

This format is a GREAT IDEA!!! Thx

Dope series. Would appreciate focusing on techs and policies a little more. I get lost in the mid game a lot on what to prioritize

YES! Love this type of content.

I like this new approach.

Dude! This is awesome! Great improvement for the channel. Kudos

This is the kind of video that I like

Awesome format! Usually first 100 turns is what matters, after that it's just clicking your way to victory. For me the late game is very relaxing, but I agree that it can be boring to watch.

LOVE the new format! Great job! 👍

Great video! Loved this series

This is how "let's play" should be done. I always hate watching boring let's plays, a rundown and highlights and stuff is much better. I think the only part I would alter a little was the war part. Maybe speed up and slow down on certain focal moments of the war would have been interesting, so we could see exactly how it was won?

Like the format, subbed

I always lose during the mid game, unsure how to focus on one thing - would love some in-depth tips on the midgame

Great concept. Also like the no re-rolls

Oh Boi can't wait for the Georgia game

Excellent! Thank you.

This is good content. Hope you keep this series going.

You should make more of these, there great

I think the early aggression is extremely rng dependant. if a neighboring civ has an early uu, there's basically no chance to conquer your neighbor, because said unit will almost one shot the unique archer. otherwise, you have to hope that they don't build walls by turn 35 or something. also if you have no direct neighbor an early rush is basically impossible due to loyalty.

Really enjoyed the video! Great concept!

Something that would be helpful would be showing the victory progress screens each era or every other era. Would help to show how you decisions are affecting your progress vs the AI

Love this series ! Very informative !

Yeah love this, keep it up. Looking forward to more civs

Nubia is stupid good lol. Great video Saxy

great format for a game like civ.

I enjoyed this format. Isn't it terribly time consuming to post edit? A slight alternative to this you could try is playing until 100ish turns and if - like in this game - you judge the game basically won, you can tap out. But if it's fairly tight you can bring it all the way to the end. I liked how roughly 60-65% of the video was spent pre-rennesaince era. I feel it makes a lot of sense in terms of how important the early turns are. The only thing I'd recommend is for you to take a breath and allow some quiet and calm. A little goes a long way. A concrete example is that you didn't really need to comment the war after you took Sparta. You could just show it. Great job overall!

This type of video was super helpful! How would you alter your plan for a civ that doesn't have an early era unique unit?

Just some advice, you could have explored a little more once you had shipbuilding. You had a whole continent to yourself but had no idea what was happening in the rest of the map. Could have been useful to see if the AI were making any particular wonders. You could have just built a few harbours to trade with them and you could have been spying on them. Also you would have had a bit more era score to avoid a dark age. Obviously it didn't end up matering in the end because you had so much land to yourself but imo it's always worth it to keep an eye on the AI even if it's just so you can screw them over for your own entertainment.

Thanks for the great content! Just getting into Civ 6 via console release, and your channel has been a font of great info and entertainment, cheers

I just found this channel and i gotta say, this is really entertaining and interesting. Consider me subbed.

Love the series keep up the good work

Yeah this is great. Gonna watch!

Will there be more videos in this series? I would like to see some more domination or science games :)

Very nice! Thanks.

Excellent stuff.

like the idea, maybe do some challenges in this format, like one city challenge or no theater square culture victory

Whoop whoop, it‘s my favorite Civ.

For the most part I agree and against rerolling, but if you have no or few productive tiles for your 1st city on deity or immortal, you are dead in the water. To see what I mean, try Arabia on true earth start location :)

Can you dive into more detail on how many cities you normally grab? Thanks! Great video!

Looking forward to more!

Thanks for this. awesome video

Awesome idea!!!!

Good stuff. Can you bring this series back?

more pls , do also crazy combo or strategy for every civ . PLS

Love this idea :)

So, in this you start your build order with a warrior? Did you then immediate switch to spamming slingers, or did you also go for a worker? When did you build that settler?

HOW DID I MISS THIS HOLD UP

Great video!!

Kongo religious victory next please 🤣

Minute 21:30 : “... decide to build... “ what? I can understand what you say and I’m curious about the strategy.

188 production?! My best city for making space projects was only 115!

I like this 👍🏻

Yeaaaaaaa YEAAAAAAA love it

One time I was playing Germany and Arabia won a turn 200 religious victory. It was emporer

15:30 couldnt you have gone for the 3 industrial zones and 3 aquaducts between those 3 little cities?

Can we get a faith version of this? Not a lot of helpful practical faith play on KZfaq

Cool compression algorithm. Haha. Do you play alto?

Any particular reason you didn't explore a lot of the world? I understand early no scouts due to war spamming units but by 23:30 you haven't met anyone besides Gorgo who you killed and Harold.
