Civilization 7 - A Tutorial for Complete Beginners - Part 1

[@quill18]

Because of the pre-release nature of this content (kindly sponsored by Civ 7!), the next episode will be released next week. The full "review" embargo lifts on February 3rd, which lifts many content restrictions so you can expect a LOT more Civ 7 content starting then! What Leader / Civ are you most excited to see?

[@mathrabbit47]

I haven't looked that closely at the civs or leaders, so any of them!

[@JohnDBarcaFan]

Do you know if UI will be improved before the release? Because I'm genuinely considering refunding my founders edition...

[@jsbrads1]

Please Google pronunciation of Maius [Mai-yoos] which means Great (and the few other words we all don’t know) I would rather have that than the years of words like Limez 🤦‍♂️😂

[@jsbrads1]

Exerkitus, you young whippersnappers pronouncing the c as s upsetting the elders in Rome.

[@jsbrads1]

@@XouXin Quill recommending UI mods in a couple of sentences and three months later…

[@DailyCiv7News]

So that's why it's called Civ 7 - we get to see 7 turns per video

[@scatmanjohn15]

😂

[@mikes2106]

The 3rd can't come soon enough!

[@RubberDuck073]

Years ago, your videos helped me learn how to be a better Civ 5 player. Glad you're still here making great content!

[@quill18]

I'm here until Civ 18!

[@IKerensky]

Legatus settlement power is more related to the fact that veteran legionnaire were given a land when they ended their service and were usually used to colonize newly conquered area this way.

[@Zone1BC]

First play as always, Egypt or Rome. The quintessential classics. Quillessential one might say? Quillessentia may be going a bit far...

[@lhead85]

Always look forward to the tutorial type content from quill to get me going, excellent explanations. Looking forward to Civilization VII now!!

[@Trainer_Orange]

It feels like civ 7 has been 3 weeks away from release for a month already 😂. Cannot wait to play it myself.

[@ifyouaintfirstyourlast4801]

This is perfect! Exactly what I was looking for.

[@roberttipple8937]

Congrats on the sponsored tutorial! Way to represent Canuckistan! 🇨🇦

[@fenneko7]

As a civ 6 player, I wasn't really 'getting' Civ 7 until your video, you explain everything perfectly as always ♡

[@BAD_Development]

The dude is talented!

[@gigawide]

You're tutorial on civ6 was the reason I got interested in these types of games all together. Really excited for the civ7 videos, cheers!

[@quill18]

That's cool!

[@EthanGaming-xf8wr]

This is awesome! Been here since you switched from Civ IV to Civ V in that final play through as Rome.

[@mockduckcompanion]

Super helpful video. Thanks man 😊

[@Sukharno2121]

placing cities in desert with this new way to work tiles may end up better than in previous versions. I saw the other videos you made, if you can outsource food and gold from towns you can probably find some odd ways to make super science/culture/other focused cities more easily.

[@quill18]

That's a good point!

[@gmasterzach1592]

I keep going back and forth on that civ and leader for my first game

[@mohamed1208]

You've come a long way, since your first Civilization 4 play through, and today Sponsored by the GOATs

[@General12th]

Hi Martin! I'm looking forward to the next video. This might end up being your best series ever!

[@Grynjolf]

His name is Quill 😡

[@kachinaedgcumbe4411]

Thank you for this video ❤ I can't wait for it's release!

[@malachiteserpent7742]

Second! Also, can’t wait to play the game, I remember the first time I ever played a civ game was a free trial of Civ 6 on my iPad years ago and I instantly fell in love with the franchise.

[@ArcherPippin]

Nicely done … I do like your approach to these vids!

[@Zacht1980]

12:36 - Quill, wrong? Inconceivable!

[@testrunning]

Woah.. hopefully a ton of UI improvements on release. That gray is something else

[@Ares42]

Not working the city tile doesn't really change the dynamic of wanting to place the city on a hill, it just flips it. You now want to put your city on a bad tile if possible.

[@lotharen]

Excellent video Quill! I have played Civilizations from 4-6 and I never really stick to it. I end up with decision paralysis and have trouble keeping up with everything (side affect of ADHD unfortunately). I really like what I'm seeing with Civ 7 and this video was posted at the absolute best time. I hope you plan on continuing this beginner series. Love how Indepth you go with the 'why' when you make decisions. I do have one question, what keeps these games from just being a min/max paradise? Never really liked when a game devolved into that being the only good choice.

[@demonac]

woo! Sevenlization!

[@ZalymBiscayn]

Alright! More Civ content to help pass some time :D

[@lt_rainbowslash58]

Looking forward to this game

[@woopsurwooped]

nice, looking forward to see you play

[@Surrealspanner]

Amazing, well done!

[@SeanSmith66]

Quill! Stop making me want to buy this game! (seriously though, thank you for the run through!)

[@joshthayer6728]

We love Quill!

[@conrad3066]

Dang, congrats on the sponsor.

[@thefailbender]

Just spent my day watching your original Civ VI tutorial series because I’m so rusty, played it for 4 hours, then on a whim went back to Civ V… man… all I need to know is if playing Tall is viable in Civ VII because DAMN I miss it. Civ V feels so nice :(

[@jsbrads1]

This is not a sci-fi game… except when we used to find a tribe before the end of the game and they would share Rocketry with you allowing you to start on the Apollo Project.

[@adesertsojourner8015]

When I clicked on the video I thought it was a potato mcwhiskey cameo, never realised how similar you both sound til now

[@HistoryTeacherSteve]

hey, how exciting!

[@eldonlol1623]

26:38 Have they said that populated tiles are self-sustaining and the yields are a bonus? Does this mean that the amount of food to grow each unit is flat? This is the first time I've heard someone say this, and I'm puzzling through the mechanics of it.

[@Khaim.m]

I don't think the food-to-grow is flat (it's never been flat previously). I do think normal pops no longer consume food or happiness.

[@kyledoran1671]

quill, I need more

[@tylercummings1458]

No lie Quill, I thought I accidentally thought it was a PotatoMcWhiskey video lol

[@dirtybaker]

This is giving me Age of Empires 2 vibes. I used to 1v5 people. How's the competitive aspect of this game? If the PvP is legit this may become my main game.

[@ChristopherDenneySeedy]

Wait, did he say Rome is Spinaltap? Because they can turn it up to 11?

[@nathanburg7571]

Londinium or London? What are you talking about? Are these some kind of mythical places? Maybe the capital of Belgium? Never heard of the place!

[@Amradorn]

Can you rename your cities?

[@parduke]

mmm play lets

[@justmac2327]

Idk why we are still getting videos in 1080p

[@OneCreator87]

Everyone picks Tool Making, I hope they do a better job balancing the game xD

[@dredge5551]

Wonderfuffle!

[@Parallacks]

some of it def feels undercooked. so the consequence of choosing a system of government is... a bonus during a "celebration"? that's it? map looks beautiful but menus/UI seem a bit sparse

[@tritan3900]

Cool

[@jsbrads1]

For the algo! 🕺

[@Hebwastaken]

Do you think the console version will be good? I don’t have a gaming pc but I have a ps5. Thanks for the video!

[@drow_Lilith9940]

more than one turn in video one shocking

[@zamba136]

While i am not 100% sure on how i'd do it yet, i would love to see a Ben Franklin Science / Prodiction rush, NOT starting as Greece or Rome.

[@Gorrebell]

ermygod!

[@Karthos1000]

I haven't been so excited for a new Civ game since Civ 4, and I was right about that one for sure! (I still have hundreds of hours in Civ V, so it's not like other Civ games haven't been fun.) I won't pay extra for early access, but I will definitely have it day one.

[@FluffiestWalrus]

I thought they said they were working on the UI? It still looks pretty awful to me

[@mathrabbit47]

First! Can't wait for the rest

[@danielpatterson9599]

Most people watching this video have played a Civ game or two before. Who is this video for?

[@RayofSunshine5519]

It’s for Quill18s pocketbook. He was paid to advertise and shine a positive light on this VERY expensive game. I’d imagine he’d have made the video either way but getting paid guarantees his positive opinions.

[@MercuryManProduction]

Most people who are subscribed to Quill have played civ before. Most people who will be searching youtube for "Civ 7 tutorial" in the coming months will not have played before. Quill always makes tutorials for new Civ games, and a lot of people find Quill specifically from his tutorials. I first found this channel after finding his Civ V tutorials way back in the day.
