If my count is correct you said happy 78 times

[@JumboPixel]

Get out! You are my absolute hero if you counted that 78 times hahaha 🤣

[@human-ft3wk]

@@JumboPixel if u click on transcript and ctrl-F for happiness you get 91 results. if u turn off transcript and ctrl-f for happiness you get 16. On my browser that means you said happiness 91-16 =75 times lol

[@feba33]

Thank you so much for these guides. They are really accessible, most civ V guides are like 3 hours long lmao

If you adopt order there is a bonus you can choose where every monument provides 2+ happiness. Helped me get over 60 happiness in level 6 Difficulty. Combine that with protecism that gives you 2+ happiness extra from every luxery resource and you’re golden

I went with autocracy because I was going for domination. Lets just say my population was not happy.😆

being ally with a city stat is a good tip, pretty easy happines to get

[@ProfShibe]

Thank you dude! Playing with some friends atm and my unhappiness is in the gutter rn haha. I'm definitely dead once we eventually turn on each other. Good civ videos brother

[@JumboPixel]

Cheers for the feedback bro! Happiness will absolutely screw you over hahah. Might be time to expand and get some more luxury resources under your control before your friends try the same trick on you.. ;)

The happy drinking game take a drink every time he says happy/happiness

[@Sofspot1]

Step 1) build army Step 2) declare war on neighbor, taking their cities and luxuries Step 3) be happier due to more luxuries

[@averagecatenjoyer8219]

Step 4) get stupid amounts of unhappiness from annexing cities that have way too much population

[@joelhuizingh9575]

@@averagecatenjoyer8219 Building courthouses will eliminate the unhappiness ;)

[@averagecatenjoyer8219]

@@joelhuizingh9575 but the amount of turns before I can build one. As someone who's shit at managing happiness last time I went on a large scale offensive half my cities went into rebellion

[@ericdavis1421]

​@@averagecatenjoyer8219 for anyone reading and having the same struggle.. Try to puppet conquered cities until you have the gold to buy a courthouse. Not cheap, but extremely friendly to the happiness budget (which overall is a great benefit).

[@linkenparis9562]

damn i'm playing with high unhapiness due to too many cities ... that may be the reason why i'm being other big civs

[@neuvocastezero1838]

I don't even know how to create "trade routes". Clicking on an empire allows me to strike a deal for a 30 turn trade, but clicking on city states offers no such option.

[@El_Presidente_5337]

I played Poland only once in CIV V and my game ended by me being constantly attacked by outside forces and barbarian revolutionaries. No matter what ideology I had x)

[@user-yp7nh7xj3v]

I was fucking negative 40 I'm dead

[@ivanvoloder8114]

Yesterday I was playing Rome and first time on Prince difficulty. The map was terrible and didnt have room to expand so I had to conqure other city states to expand. In short time my unhappines sky rocketed from -4 to minus -24 and rebellions started in my territory. First units rebelled then I lost one of my cities. By that time it was all over and I started a new game with Germany on Warlord difficulty and it's a whole different story. Better position and abudance of luxury resources. It looks like I'm not currently good enough to start a harder difficulty. Any advice would be great.

[@imhappyidance]

yeah i usually dont do anything aggro or annex any cities until i have courthouse or autocracy level 2 police state, which is mid game if you bee line it with science and culture and have like 1 production city churning out wonders i usually start setting up offensive positions outside of cities right before the tech drops then just go apeshit on 1 city and blitzkreig if the map allows it with choke holds, not that you have to play bad starts, but if its exceptionally bad imagine how your going to play mid game, from that position onward, i wouldnt restart if you just dont like the tiles because sometimes those games are fun. i had the same exact thing happen to me, thats why you use puppet states or raze if you can tank it, usually you dont want to do anything aggro once the ais start talking so they can denounce you, theres a sweet spot early game but i dont know it, what i do know is that bismark is pretty good late game and hun is better early game depending on what you want to do, bismark can afford bigger armies, hun has the faster raze and better earlygame units, not that he falls off he just doesnt have those bonuses that bismark has. i would read the different options you have when deciding on what to do with a city.

Good vid😊 Keep it up!👍

Thanks man! 🙂

[@jaystone7351]

If you have a lower level happiness generating building that is capped by the number of citizens yet will increase with their number why bother with something like the zoo if it effectively does the same thing?

[@JumboPixel]

I don’t quite understand your question but allow me to explain. Local happiness generating buildings (like a zoo) provide happiness less than or equal to your total population number. As a city grows (and population increases), unhappiness increases too. Buildings like Zoos help offset the happiness penalties of growth. Hope that helps! :)

[@ninjanape]

thank you!

[@GoodOldErin]

And now let's eat some Happy Hippoes and listen to Pharrell Williams. 😆

[@TKUltra971]

Do you have a video that talks about why when ideologies are adopted in the mid game your happiness suddenly turns to -39 on a dime without an explanation? Even when you have double or triple the culture of that civ?

[@PAJ_L2001]

Maybe they have significant tourism? Or maybe there's many civs with a different ideology, that is also bad for public opinion. Alternatively, if there's a world ideology that you're not following that could put you at a disadvantage.

[@dogmil9930]

I need one of these IRL (pls help meeeeeee)

[@blakeostrem8539]

Does apply outside of CIV 5?

[@JumboPixel]

Do you mean does it apply to Civ 6? In short, kind of.... Happiness and growth are tied to things like housing and amenities in Civ 6 though.

[@jessealexander9074]

i can barely hear your videos

[@jumbopixel131]

I'll watch this shortly

Dastardly!
