[@explodingwolfgaming8024]

I shall!!!

[@crazysc0tsman]

Me too!

[@markjones952]

I have an idea for the Rambler's videos: Have a big strong shirtless guy stand behind Alex looking menacing. It projects power...a lot of these trolls need to know what's coming if they don't show the proper respect. Thank you for your time.

[@spaggotyee5466]

Alex has trolls?

[@legrosroger]

​​@@spaggotyee5466 dude is very mentally unstable nowadays, I hope he's getting the help he needs

Alex:my city isnt growing that quickly also Alex my city does not need more food

[@HenryGK]

In know it's kind of a Civ clone, but there are quite a few little improvements that really add up.

[@oaw117]

That combat animation was really bad.

[@tequt]

it looks like a mobile game ad its so funny.

[@permarkusrisman6471]

The graphics are absolut shit. Like it’s one of the worst. But after playing the demo the game is actually great. If you can get over the graphics and enjoy 4x games you’ll enjoy this one.

[@oaw117]

@@permarkusrisman6471 that's how I felt after watching the rest of the video. The production chains seem really neat.

[@watercannonscollaboration2281]

Maybe this would be a little bit more noob friendly than Civ? My friends brought me on to play Civ 5 and by the end when everyone declared war on each other one of them was so far up in tech I was like “how badly did you rig this game???” while laughing

[@Razzlion]

I played the demo for a full night.. i havent pulled an all nighter in YEARS. This game is really good, so many different ways to progress and customize as you play. You never loose a game on turn 1 as you do in CIV if you happen to not spawn in the perfect place etc. i love the way this game handles how you progress the eras and how you tailor your bonuses and focus throughout a game!

[@RobbieEl]

I played one game and was bored shitless. Aside from the fantasy ages element, it's an extremely generic and bland 4X offering little new to the genre.

[@Razzlion]

@@RobbieEl So you don't like 4x games, why are you even here then? If this game "bored you shitless" then you must HATE Civ etc. so why even bother looking at 4x games?

[@RobbieEl]

@Razzlion I love 4X games and have been playing them since I first loaded Civ 1 in DOS. That's over 30 years of playing 4X games. Like I said, this game is generic and offers little new to the formula.

[@Fyrd_Productions]

It does just look like a poor civ knock off. One of the many paradox games that will probably never take off

[@Razzlion]

@@RobbieEl So you are just jaded and sour then? This game is doing a ton of new things and if you can't absorb that then i don't know what you are on. You must hate every 4x game that has been made in the last 25 years i guess since they are all based on creating towns, building them up and winning the game. So generic and boring.

[@svenrio8521]

The UK's starting city is Belfast??? Um, excuse me based alert!? 😳 But seriously, why, though? London was around since Roman times.

[@Lex_Araden]

I think there is a list of potential first Capital names not one that is used every time.

[@g.a.b.k4521]

Cool vid! Good to know about some upcoming games

Dear god

WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN SENDING IT?!?!!??

[@ondrejrichtr6835]

I love the mechanics of the game, hope you enjoyed it.

[@hadenmontgomery5888]

would love to see you play more of this

[@Speederzzz]

I've been really interested in this game, so I'm happy to see you play it!

[@crazysc0tsman]

More please! Loving to coverage on this game.

[@sfrog4683]

Thanks for the preview. Seems like a title worth following up on, although I’m not crazy about the combat animations

[@B_men_apo]

Wouldn’t zuko have known that the avatar cycle would end when killed in the avatar state and shared this info with his father.

[@Sergeant.Arch.Dornan.]

this looks cool!

[@willisplaysgames]

Please play more! Really enjoyed the video and the game seems really fun!

[@michaelmcnamara3190]

31:12 nice work Alex; you were like the sea people, who historical devastated ancient civilizations! Also FWIW it would be good idea for future runs to build up your cities and uses those engineering points to build up iron mines (for military) and housing and food resources to get stronger. Cheers mate 🥂

[@Crunchifyable2]

It's a smart idea since I haven't been able to stomach anything called civ since civ 4. But so far...it doesn't seem like worth playing.

[@Taddhaus]

+1 Comment for my mate!

[@jonathanloera5598]

This game looks really fun, thanks alex for showing it to us

[@shloidain]

very cool!

[@ondrejrichtr6835]

Yess

[@GrantelHerbert]

I'm really looking forward for this game. I think I will wait for a few patches, knowing Paradox and then I will get it.

[@Kris-qn4bn]

The game has a lot of potential. Maybe they can change a few things, but it looks good.

[@shadowrulsful]

Yet another twist on the base model of Civilization, this one seems to lean more towards the Old World kind of variant, minus the rp family and diplomatic relations.

[@Hadyan.]

I've clicked! I like this type of game. It reminds me of ci

[@schmoodleberg1237]

Alex the RAMMMMMMBLEERRRRR🎉🎉🎉🎉 what a guy what a legend

[@rosabenson7833]

First one to watch it! great vid!

[@sarahlynn7807]

Thanks for the video. Not my kind of game. Nice to know before I buy. But you made this video fun.

[@michaelmcnamara3190]

Archers OP 😅

[@Meister_Mogul]

I support Rambler!

[@MH-tr4kn]

love the game

[@user-oi8gk2si3n]

All hail emporor alex

[@Willarenz-kk6hg]

It’s alot like civ 6

[@abelzatyko1513]

Civ 5 if it had disgusting UI.

[@jimthesoundman8641]

Yeah, it's sad that all these game studios just keep recycling ideas that some other game had a decade or more ago. When's the last time someone came up with a truly original game? I can't remember.

[@KittyOfBorg]

I quite like the look of this civ clone tbh, the combat video needs work though.

[@seanreilly8717]

So it's civ?

[@karlfranz9235]

Its an Alpha or Beta ?

[@Zephmir]

Alpha if I remember correctly

[@emadhassan1193]

Uppppppp for algorithm

I kove me some 4x games.

I don't really have hope for Millenia, I just came to support Alex because he's a great guy :)

[@rosabenson7833]

Great video alex! I think I am the first one here!

[@guzydibs8068]

If they got rid of that goofy combat animation, i would be pretty solid in my opinion but man does that really take you out of the game

[@KimFareseed]

4X game?

[@TheCentristChad]

Seems cool. A nice Civilization alternative. They better fix the animations

[@Mxdsleazy]

Bruh it's just side miers civ. I'm probably gonna wait until paradox polishes this game

[@Deathshead419]

14 years and game devs are still regurgitating Civilization 5. Except for the overly cumbersome battle UI, there's nothing here I've not seen for the last decade. What a pathetic waste...

[@GundamGokuTV]

Why does the animation on the combat look so bad?

[@Jean-SebastienLefebvreOfficiel]

That's just a cheap version of Civ6

[@eenis1281]

This game looks awful

[@Razzlion]

In what way? Please do explain.

[@Deathshead419]

@@Razzlion It looks like a cheap knockoff of Civilizations 5 & 6, with the only addition being that needlessly cumbersome looking combat screen. I can't see anything here to recommend the game over ones I bought years ago.

[@Razzlion]

@@Deathshead419 Then you must be blind my guy. This game has a TON of systems, functions and alterations that make it much better than Civ. The only "downside" is the combat screen, in regards to that they could have just stuck to something similar to civ and just had the models smash togeather instead. But i get that they wanted to show how the different types of units work in a visual way. But its not like the combat screen itself matters at all. Like it has no bearing on ANYTHING.

[@ianhernandez901]

Yep, same shit as Civ but worse💀

[@flashink6437]

@@Razzlion it may have cool systems but look at the graphics. Compare that to humankind and civ6. This new game looks like shit

[@patrickward8983]

So civ but worse

[@JustMe-wo6rv]

jesus christ, this game looks so much like a mobile game, it's disgustingly ugly....

[@Sam-kf9to]

Honestly the game could be good but the combat animations are absolute dogshit

[@MrCreeperAstley]

Alex I think taking the non-hoi4 sponsorships is just accelerating the death spiral. I know the short term payday is worth it but you gotta think long term if it’s killing ur analytics

[@Vetiyx]

No I think it's quite fun to see him play other games. If you only want to watch hoi4 videos, then only watch his hoi4 videos....

[@Spongy656]

First video I've watched in a while. I don't think these videos are bad.
