The worst timeline | Civ 5: Seas of Doom #3

[@hecticscone]

I just want to say that whoever edits these nowadays does probably the best job editing specifically Civ out of any past editor. It makes it so much easier to keep track of what's happening IMO

[@tri1937]

funny listening to them talk about “how would my life be different if i made that one random choice different” since a lot of the original guys are only here because they decided to join that random wow guild back in 2004

[@Ben.Pickett3]

The worst timeline is the one where we never find out if father Braeburn got his golden record back...

[@Ben.Pickett3]

If you're reading this Lewis, gold in Civ 5 is just a number, it's only when you get completely bankrupt it's a problem. You shouldn't avoid building good buildings because your GPT is negative, you can just build a trade route if you're concerned about it.

[@twelvecatsinatrenchcoat]

I'm so happy they're making Civ V videos again. I never even tried to play Civ 6. Something about it always looked... really messy to me. It feels like it's just this assault of information and clutter in the UI and even the map itself.

[@Spyro5500]

Civ 6 is fantastic if you actually know how to play it, most Yogs just never bothered to learn

[@AcceptTheNull]

I have the opposite issue but with V. It is mostly just a checklist in your cities. Then the other UIs are also just checklist/boxes. It's like how the cards in VI allow infinite customization while the civics in V are built like old WoW talent trees.

[@twelvecatsinatrenchcoat]

@@AcceptTheNull You and I play these games very very very differently.

[@sheildingepicness]

@@AcceptTheNull a checklist? What are you talking about lol. But to respond to the original post, civ 6 definitely has the most noise and becomes much too micromanagey the longer you get into the game. Many of the cards for example are completely useless and only need to be changed every so often

[@danielr3587]

Lewis has 6 happiness and his biggest citys is on aviod growth

[@colossaldonut5190]

He forgot to put it off of avoid growth once he got happiness to spare. Hopefully he remembers sooner rather than 20 turns from now.

[@NotChickenspy]

I found it surprising that Lewis didn’t even consider the piety tree with all the religion he is going for

[@colossaldonut5190]

There's not really any room to put down holy sites. Although I am always open to see the war Pope runback.

[@JM.....]

Probably bc he played it last game

Robert Pattinson's Batman was pretty good.

[@replicasex]

He's probably my favorite.

[@Half_Finis]

Yea he's good but like Rythian says he had the chance to actually be an actor compared to Affleck who shows up in big fight movies

[@Einomar]

Yeah but Pat Robertson's batman really sucked! 😂 (let's see how many people get that one)

[@BlueMatter_]

Very nice Red Dwarf reference, JD (11:14) 😂

[@Sieben2703]

Subtle Red Dwarf reference from Rythian. Love it

[@mizigoth7864]

None acknowledged it :(

[@deandrew1767]

Whales for gold, on an island map? Yogs Civ history repeats itself

[@colossaldonut5190]

Too bad there's no oranges on that island of Duncan's.

[@jorbdan6305]

Rather than deciding how many settlers he wants, shouldn't Lewis be deciding how many worthwhile settle locations he can see?

[@sersmiles1635]

numbers are better. exploration tree filled and all the trash Islands are now gods

[@DoABarrelRol1l]

Cum Piñata is what they called me in college. I will not elaborate

[@OnceandFutureSoph]

Having stacks of happiness gives such a bonus towards golden ages, it's always best to crank it as hard as possible. It's probably too early in the game for these guys to be thinking about more than keeping it barely positive, but getting huge amounts is soooo gooooooodddddd ❤

[@IcepersonYT]

Sorry to necro an old comment but honestly happiness management is something Yogs are bafflingly bad at. As someone who recently got back into the game and used to do one city turtle challenges because I hated the micro-management and happiness issues that come with big empires it just really isn't that hard to avoid being unhappy. You basically just have to stagger out your settlements when you need happiness, always settle on a unique luxury and have a plan in place for how you are going to get that luxury as soon as possible. A winning strat for me is save up some money beforehand to just buy a worker in the new city. I think part of their issues is that they try to get out all of the expansions back to back instead of choosing a good time to settle. The fact that Lewis has felt compelled to avoid growth in his cities at all shows that it's a part of the game he's really weak at.

[@BeeBeeBeeLol]

I used to watch ur guys' civ 5 videos about 6-7 years ago religiously. Civ 6 is really not the entry I thought it was going to be and it left me quite disappointed. I am absolutely thrilled you guys are doing Civ 5 playthroughs with the spice of mods now. It's been incredibly enjoyable.

[@willswenson3169]

When it comes to unit maintenance, I'm pretty certain that it increases over time. So ten warriors would cost the same as ten X-COM.

[@fishpop]

11:15 Red Dwarf reference, nice.

[@anononomous]

Being able to do a spot on impression of the food dispenser from Red Dwarf is a niche but highly admirable skill 11:15

[@mizigoth7864]

Chicken soup?

[@TheDeathShadoknights]

You guys need to play the superpower mod together. It’s so good. Think the dynamic of the overhaul would give a very rewarding play through.

[@fishpop]

5:10 I was not expecting a Gundam reference in a Yogscast video. But since Daltos said Wing specifically; i doubt he knows much more than surface level stuff.

[@linnadhiel2760]

Literally no one is going to read this, but there is a setting in civ5 for "workers don't replace improvements" it will literally solve the trade post problem instantly...

[@colossaldonut5190]

I mean it will still put trading posts everywhere. Just not on unimproved tiles.

[@linnadhiel2760]

@@colossaldonut5190 their complaint seems to be that the workers are replacing tile improvements, it was definitely what they were talking about during the last game.

[@Ancano]

1:18 Billionaire, Vicky, billionaire.

[@matheusGMN]

so who do you guys think is going to win? this game is going too wacky at the moment for me to be sure

[@cyrus9043]

well most likely Lewis if not Duncan but thats mostly just based of who normally wins

[@cyrus9043]

but i reckon lewis specifically cus exploration in lekmod is very powerful so he'll end up with some mega cities.

[@MyAquilo]

I don’t know who, but I reckon everyone will raise the alarm bells about a culture victory, and we’ll still get one!

[@Belteshazzar_]

Build a what, sorry Lewis? 18:39

[@iain-duncan]

Different units Def have maintenance differences in civ 6 but maybe not in 5? Also, workers spam trading posts because they're kinda OP

[@King-uj1lh]

Why would duncan not build petra in his cap?????

[@KombatJester]

He probably didn't read that it doesn't affect floodplains tiles and thought the other city had more "desert".

[@daddysempaichan]

Less affected tiles and would render leaving a big chunk of land rather useless, as he's going Tradition and want's to settle few high value cities. It's not that bad of a place to build Petra, either. Plenty of hills, and a couple of good food tiles to grow. I do agree that he should've built it in his Capital. You don't need to get the max value out of Petra, just having like, 10 tiles buffed by it is more than good enough, imo. What he did was greedy and someone could've probably sniped it from Duncan, by have more food tiles, thus bigger cities and more production, but no one did, probably because they only see Petra worth building if they can get close to the maximum value out of it. You know, Single Player mentaity. But hey, we don't watch the Yogs for their high level, big brain gameplay, so it's nothing to rip your dick over.

[@colossaldonut5190]

​@@daddysempaichan Rythian definitely could have gotten value from it, but also it's Rythian and I doubt he would want to start any conflict at any point in the game, that said the idea of stealing Petra probably didn't even cross his mind. There's almost 0 benefit to building it for anybody else who can even build the wonder (it requires a desert on the settled tile or adjacent to the city) and I doubt anybody could have contested it before Duncan got it. It will be interesting to see who gets Althing between JD and Daltos since both have a lot of Tundra that would benefit from it.

[@justarams4562]

Ben Affleck was a great batman and the Zack Snyder movies were fucking awesome. RIP Zack's adopted daughter who committed suicide while he was making them.

[@redgaarden8101]

Could have just deleted the scienctist

[@BooBooBlueBerry]

Dalto's joke at 12:55 is super under rated.

[@dethmin173]

cool

[@archdukepc102]

Why tf didn’t Duncan build Petra in his capital

[@Nikolai572]

The city placement will always make me cringe. They settle like AI's

[@colonelturmeric558]

Batman is supposed to be a man at the absolute peak of human physical performance, of course he should be big. Daltos with a customarily wack take

[@strelokhunter7689]

He does chat some mad shit sometimes

[@Kicksticks]

Yea think he blanked out a little there. Though understandable when a ton of the live action portrayals have made batman relatively small. One of the reasons i love Batfleck sm if cos of his bulkyness

[@BalthorYT]

Yes, but actually no. Go look at the original Batman comics: he's buff, but not huge. Which makes sense, as _acrobatics_ is a huge part of his style and skillset as a superhero. He's not super tall or super hench, but at his size and without overcommitting to brute strength, he _is_ at his peak.

[@FindTheFun]

Gay deez nuts amirite?

[@EpyonRules]

16:57 showing the advice to put a camp on some deer. That give food and production. And can be upgraded to give gold. Next to a capital city. Duncan apparently being as bad at improving tiles as the AI civs.

[@EpyonRules]

Sure, upgrading the deer at this point in time isn't as crucial, since he has the Whales, which are better. But the deer should have been the first tiles he upgraded, given his start and the lack of innate embarkation for workers.

[@bl8976]

Nice trash fish

[@BlueSunHiredGun]

Worse than trash, it's literally a poop-eating fish. If there's a scummy drainage ditch in Hawaii, you can bet there's probably more tilapia than water in it.

[@craziedzombie]

Ben Affleck has been the best Batman just from a physical standpoint. Especially since he has entirely based of the frank miller Batman. More brutal and big.
