I'm not even 2 minutes in and I've already laughed out loud twice, because making jokes about depression is pretty much how my friends and I cope too. So, sorry about The Big Sad, but glad to hear you're feeling better! And kudos on a relatable and funny explanation. I know talking about it is often hard (especially on the internet) but I think you nailed it. We like your videos and don't mind waiting, so hang in there, bud.

[@EruditeGayming]

Boes is so good at Civ, he now places Huey like the AI does.

[@BarmiBenedek]

Most likely nobody really cares, but since it is the only Hungarian wonder here's a little history lesson on the "Országház" (it mirror translates to statehouse, but it should be obviously interpreted as "Parliament") it's built in neo-gothic style. Constructed on a very wet base the engineers had to construct an enormous concrete basin for it to sit in. Originally the facade was constructed with a malleable limestone which deteriorated by the early 2000s, they spent most of the mollenias first decade switching it to fresh and more resiliant limestone.

[@milosstojanovic4623]

Thats cool to know. Those older buildings from different time periods are always unique to see. If i was multi trilioner i would pay to rebuild or build from scratch some buildings from old world periods. It would be tourist attraction, with authentic style.

[@Speedy_Boi__]

Hey Boes, its really nice to see a video from you! I've rewatched your first success at this challenge several times, so thank you for remaking it! I had searched to see if people had done this challenge prior to your first release, but I couldn't find any on deity. I have a lot of experience with the big sad, and I'm really glad you took the time away to recuperate and stay with us. Please don't be afraid to do this sort of thing in the future, your wellbeing and life will always be much more valuable than what you can produce. You're an inspiration to us all.

[@JustSome462]

Happy to hear you feel better man, love your videos

[@HimitsuYami]

Since you already have mods like quick deals, I suggest World Wonder Reminders Enhanced. Will let you see all the wonders at once and who is building them, and estimated time to completion, and even will tell you like "unmet player" for the ones you haven't met. And if you've actually got vision of the construction site, you can even go right to it What other mods are you using, btw? I saw a button to the right of quick deals that i don't have in my game

[@boesthius]

Oh that mod is Sukritact's Tourism Overview Screen! It just gives a little better breakdown of where your tourism is coming from and how many tourists per turn you're getting from each civ~

[@justicethompson7518]

GLAD YOURE BACK AND FEELING BETTER❤

[@The_Riot]

New to the channel and I’m happy this is the first video I watched. Keep your head up man; The world is a better place with you in it.

[@samuelconnolly347]

Outstanding play! I was inspired to give this a go, though just on prince difficulty. Succeeded in 215 turns (I won the cultural victory quite a bit earlier) - could have done it faster, but I stopped min-maxxing and being as efficient as I could be when I was confident the AI wasn't going to catch up. The early game is hard! I made some silly mistakes that nearly cost me. For example I forgot Jebel Berkal needed to built on desert hills - I didn't have any. I found the one desert hills tile vaguely accessible (which was in England's territory, so I had to conquer her city), then stupidly put an envoy into a neighbouring city state so its borders expanded to to the desert hills, so I'm ashamed to say I did save scum there! I had no lakes anywhere nearby, so ended up having to do a risky settle in the middle of Greek territory (I eventually got a cultural alliance with them) just to annex the one lake tile I could find for Huey (fortunately, no one else had any lakes either, so no one was competing). I had a good map, but still had some limitations that made this harder. I decided to play the map when I saw my capital had stone and floodplains in it, but I think had I been on a higher difficulty I'd have lost because accessing the ocean was extremely difficult and I was slow to settle there. Had I been more organised, I'd have promoted Moksha with divine architect much earlier because I had so much faith and I reached a bit of a production bottleneck getting the prerequisite districts down in newly settled cities before I could start on the wonders. Five turns to move Magnus feels like forever in this challenge - I often had all my builders prepped and ready to chop out the wonder and it was agonising waiting. Otherwise, an enjoyable challenge (and it is a challenge even on prince difficulty - I was fairly confident of winning by the mid-medieval era, but up to that point I was often racing the AI, especially on those early naval wonders that I never build usually). Makes you realise just how many wonders are in the game. Keen to try this again on a higher difficulty and aim for sub-200.

[@_NotSoBunnyBoy_]

I’m glad your doing better, I’ve also got a problem with severe depression and god do I know how difficult it can be just to wake up some days.

For me it is consuming void (when it really hungry i physically feel it somewhere between heart and neck), draining wish to live and any good feelings. This shit is real, really can hurt you and really is illness, which somehow still unbelievable for many people. Im my country even for actual doctors. I hope you will eventually win yourself, but it really may take time. I keep fighting for 3 years and i think i will need not much than a couple more. Hopefully. Dont be mad on yourself if you sometimes think that you should be okay already. And again - i hope you will be alright. I believe you strong enough to not surrender when weak and keep fighting ehen strong - and eventually you will stop void from coming back.
