How crazy that I was just imagining a mod in Civ to allow the player to play a formless civ that got it's bonuses based on your decisions then low and behold here is Humankind! Toss in a better battle system and I'm sold already! EU4 so far has been my antidote for a more complex civ game. Once you get over it's steep learning curve, going back to Civilization feels like going back to grade school lol

@@beastminer147 The same reason anyone would play any paradox or 4x game that takes place with a historical setting. No one would want to play a Paradox game where everything happens exactly how it did in history everytime. The whole point is to take a setting that is known, and allow the player to create a divergent timeline/series of events. "Just go become president" is almost not even worth responding to lol, thats like telling someone who likes to play military shooters to "go join the military". People like experiencing a taste of the parts of an experience that are enjoyable, without the full experience in its real world entirety, and without commiting their entire life path to such a position in the world.

While Civ6 can feel more overall complete, keep in mind that that's a basegame plus several DLC, totaling to over $100USD easy. Humankind is only $60USD at most for the deluxe edition which includes its optional DLC. Even so, it's still more complete and in-depth as a base-game that just came out, compared to one with half its value in DLC alone that has spent years in development and improvement post-release.

I hope they add more resources overall so more territories at least have something. I haven't touched CIV 6 since I've got the hang of Humankind (for me personally, I'm a huge combat guy and that REALLY makes me lean towards Humankind for me)

Really enjoying your content. I started a new game of Civ 5 last night for the first time in years. I will say that one of the odd things about Civ in general is how there are the mini wonders requiring all cities to have a building that make it hard to want to expand late in the game due to the AI being so poor at building in their cities. And the state of the game where so many turns pass just hitting next turn if you aren't going for a domination victory. It is fun to see tile output climb of course. And opportunistic wars to take down your closest rival makes sense. One issue is that units are only really very viable for a short period of time in the game before they are outmoded by new ones and I find myself even delaying wars till the better units arrive. The hopeful thing about Humankind is the continued choices to be made along the way that Civ can be lacking in at times. Curious what people think about those thoughts 🤔

Am I right that if we struggle to the point of choice, other choices might be already taken? 3. I was never good in domination (diplomacy was alwas my thing) that's why I'm kinda worried about that new combat system in Humankind. I wish diplomacy was also tweaked.

They get to ransack and kill my armies taking territory without declaring war?? If i cross their border it requires war declaration. Still interesting and the tutorial does not use the expansion packs so gonna try a full game.I hope the diplomacy is better with expansion packs. So used to civ competing with each other trying to get you to join wars, It really feels different. The city cap with non growing outposts is frustrating.

i think civ games should have changed the logic long ago. they dont make something new, they are publishing the same game everytime. they did really good job in alpha centauri, changing unit weapons, abilities, add ons, creating unit templates was a great option. they now give me 1-2 unit in for entire age now. publishing the same game with better graphic and animations is not enough. simcity did that mistake too, then cities skylines knocked it with epic spartan kick. moreover civilization has a bit lame logic. i choose the civilization before i choose where i start on the map. so if i start as russians on a tropical island, say farewell to all bonuses. if you look at history of civilizations, geography decides your culture. mesopotamia and other earlier river side nations florished as they had access to easy farming. meanwhile turks and mongols didnt choose to be nomads, they had no option to survive on the stepps.

I’ve got a video coming out soon about it, but generally it’s not terrible. However it is extreme at the edges - rather bad at picking fights sometimes, but very very good at scouting and claiming territories.

4X toddlers are still patting themselves on the shoulder for the 1-unit-tile system because it lessens "doomstacks" that are somehow a problem, but that was the point, strategy was the point. 1ut gives you no, absolutely zero strategy, and only child-appropriate tactical gameplay like checkers. HINT: attrition? That's the mechanic you were looking for. Us warners have long moved on to things like EU4 or Hearts of Iron.

@@Sharpie_17 Nah, you don't know how the Paradox model works. EU4 from 8 years ago is nothing like EU4 now, because Paradox releases major expansions and overhauls every single year. It's more like an MMO in this regard. But I just used it as an example because it's the most famous Paradox game. I actually find EU4 kinda trash. I just mean Paradox in general. The best 4X strategy offering is Stellaris. Every Civ player would like it, even if you don't like other Paradoxes. I don't game anymore, anyway, and my comment was a bit cringe.
@jyutzler2 жыл бұрын
This, but the opposite. The strategy required to manage 1UPT is far greater than the strategy required to just put together a doomstack and mop the map with it. Stellaris is a real-time game, a completely different genre.

Humankind isn't bad, but it's not great either. Feels a lot slower than Civ 6, but not necessarily more complicated. The manual combat could have been left out, it's a lame mini game that doesn't make a lot of sense. Doubt I'll play much more just due to time required per game, Civ 6 games feel faster even while managing twice as many cites.

while human cultures definitely did develop and evolve dramatically during eras, they definitely didn't shift as they do in Humankind. Egyptians didn't jump into Japanese culture, Celts didn't turn into Chinese, Romans didn't transform into Polish, etc etc. Humankind has the opposite problem as Civ 6 when it comes to civilizations and cultures; human culture might have dramatically shifted in history, but they sure as hell didn't do a complete 180.
@Eralo763 жыл бұрын
I admit I prefer Civilization, that's because it is really just a complex board game with the addition of really good story-making, but not with the ambition of being accurate. I didn't played Humankind but it looks like a weird mix between civilization and more complex and realistic games.

I dunno about this game, for me that locked borders is a massive red flag and possibility of a deal breaker. Also regarding the combat, from the plays i seen in humankind it is very much same as the civ games, units got atk/def value and you right click on them to do dmg nothing fancy strategy besides letting your ranged units go first.
@JumboPixel3 жыл бұрын
The combat operates in a seperate field/ zone over three rounds (per battle). It’s also more complicated than civ because the battles have significant impacts on war support and war score, which determines outcomes of conflicts like vassalage, sanctions, etc.

@@JumboPixel It must be said that it's great to see the civilization series given some stiff competition. One of the issues with combat in civ 6 is that it lacks variability as to the conditions thus maneuvers during combat don't really require as much forethought. One solution is that there exists a sub hexagonal lattices. The combining of so many scales (three I believe) mapped to simply one scale is quite elegant and works reasonably well but both city building and combat feels cramped. My solution would be a sub hexagonal lattice for combat and city building with larger hexagonal lattices used for city placement, quick movement, road and rail connections etc. The larger lattices could have an attribute whereby their sub lattice would have a default position for the things represented in the larger lattice (like wonders or roads) while the placement of buildings, potentially farm land, and districts could take up a number of sub lattice hexagons.
@thomasullmann74473 жыл бұрын
just to add, the sub lattice would have to be triangular :D

I would’ve actually agreed with you as that’s initially one of the reasons why I didn’t want to play endless legend but after playing it I think if that mechanic is what’s putting you off the game than maybe reconsider. I don’t think it’s actually that bad once you get used to it and it makes it fairly interesting. This is just my opinion though and if others things have you worried than fair enough.

After 6 hours with Humankind I was extremely dissatisfied. Combat is dull and clunky. Claiming wonders takes the suspense out of building them. Coming across Edgar Allen Poe as leader of the Maya feels off and takes the heart out of the civilization for me. Also crusty old White dudes leading civilizations that were wiped out by crusty old White dudes feel wrong. As a Native American I sure would not want to see Andrew Jackson leading a Native nation. The whole thing feels off and wrong. The voice acting, music and graphics are amazing. But every thing else is just not for me.
