staring with a passive and cultural plan for the game and then going for domination because of the IA annoyance.. classic potato

@tostrmofo668610 ай бұрын
Happens to me all the time. I have a nice plan, everything works out great, the AI decides to declare war between turn 30 and 50 and forces me to build military. So much time is wasted and after fending off the AI they don't have any military left, so why not just take a few of their cities. It's now turn 60-100 and as the snowball already started rolling, why not go domination and be done in like turn 200 or go back to the old strategy and end the game somewhere close to turn 300, which is annoying and also depending on the civs in the game you might have lost a culture or science victory by then, if you don't kill the AI in question anyways. Same with religion. Sometimes I want my religion to boost a science or culture victory. Annoying AI keeps converting my cities, so I get mad and drown them in apostles. Tbh those are some of the fastest victories, because a religion victory is as easy as it is annoying. I feel if you want to pull of your own gameplan instead of reacting to the AIs actions you have to get very lucky either with your spawn, your neighbours or both.

Small note on the sunk cost fallacy comment around 18 minutes in: the reason sunk cost is a *fallacy* is because it refers to a situation where there is more benefit in abandoning the current course of action than continuing it, and the course continues only because the person is now invested in it. It's not really the sunk cost *fallacy* if giving up the attempt on a religion leaves you seriously behind, having dedicated large parts of your early game to religion, and now unable to use most of your civ's abilities, while you still have a very good shot at getting a religion if you continue.
@bigfudge203110 ай бұрын
The point he is trying to make is, that he loses his city if he chooses to carry on with the religion play, but he has to commit to the religion at that point otherwise all the investment in holy sites was unnecessary. It is debatable which is more important because Babylon already took the religious belief he wanted anyway, so potentially it is more important to prioritise defending the city instead and just adopt Babylon's religion. (Khmer get their benefits from the religious buildings, they don't actually need their own religion)
@mbobzien110 ай бұрын
I'm really intrigued to see how you pull this one off. I rage quit a game today facing Babylon. Was hoping for a nice peaceful culture game, and then Babylon rolls in with trebuchets before I even have walls researched, let alone up. You're a better man than me for continuing on with the game.

I like that you took responsibility for the early loss of your city and recognized it as the kind of thing people learn from. you already know a ton, but it is helpful for viewers to not see someone just whine about the ai or something. there's usually something the player could have done differently.

You missed the +5 holy sight in the 2nd ring of your capitol. Its 1 hex to the right of your sheep and would've been an extra 2 adjacency (3 mountains and 1 river). I almost expected you to but the tile when you had the extra gold, but you made the decision to but the 1 food 2 production tile, which didn't really change the timing on settler #1. That spot is also adjacent to a +5 campus slot, which is also adjacent to the other +5 campus which you noted earlier in the video. Playing games on the internet is a really hard job, and its hard to notice every small efficiency, but I'm mentioning this here for (engagement) and also because newer players may just assume you've picked the best spot, without thinking about the map. In all that's 3 +5 adjacency spots near your capitol city (2 inside and 1 in the 4th ring) which makes this start above average in my opinion. Sure, you're lacking production, but you could plan ahead for high industrial zone adjacency. Alternatively, khmer don't really need a lot of product to be successful. Most of the key buildings can be purchased with money/faith, and they have linear scaling with pop growth, which means that you can play them fairly tall (5 cities with 20+ population each) and still win on Diety without much else going your way.

Babylon built those holy sites because they unlocked astrology turn 1 by spawning on top of Uluru. Babylon has a huge advantage in tech shuffle mode as they can mostly ignore the tech tree while everyone else has to figure out how to deal with the shuffled techs. Fortunately the ai isn't smart enough to focus tech boost but a lot of boost are for doing things that the ai would do during normal gameplay. Sometimes the ai will go from singers and wariors to crossbows and pike and shot in a few turns because they built a singer that managed to kill a random barb and then over the next couple of turns they immediately upgraded to archers and then immediately upgraded again to crossbows.

Something that I think would be really cool to watch is that since we have already seen you play a bunch of modded and op civs, why not play a game where you have a bad civ and all of the AIs have the op civs. Like the minecraft one or whatever. I feel like it also would be cool if you could somehow also have a game of 8 AIs with the only way to win being a military victory. Since we almost never see the AIs go for total domination, I feel like it would be really cool.

@resentfuldragon10 ай бұрын
Khmer is super strong, my first won civ 6 game had me start nearby and I ignored them without realizing how dangerous the civ is. Not long into the game they spammed out cities and kept trying to snake into my lands and convert my cities. It took a total of 3 wars at different times to cripple Khmer because I didn't understand much about how the game works, I let them build up too much, and didn't realize he can flip city states to join wars so I nearly lost the first 1 due to an unprotected border. Basically not killing them immediately is a bad move if you are next to them.

Hi I'm cambodian and khmer is our ancent name and ancestor 1000 years ago. Jayvaraman 7th is our greatest God king around 12th centuries of the khmer empire. I loved playing as khmer in civ 6. Domrey is just the khmer pronunciation of Elephant. Ancient khmer is known for its strong elephants troops of war. And prasat is khmer pronunciation of Temple. In present day Cambodia is filled with ancient ruined temples through out the country that was left from the ancient khmer empire and their believe in Hinduism and its gods. If u want to know more about the khmer empire u can hit me up and I will tell you more about my great ancestors history

People often misunderstand sunk cost and think it means you should ignore investment. That's not true, it's just that you must only think of investment in terms of likely future gains. To put it another way, that you've invested 20 turns into religion matters not at all to your decision, but that you only need *2 additional* turns to get a return on your religion matters hugely. It's unlikely that you can extract as much value from 2 turns any other way. The fallacy is when those 2 turns yields a worthless religion, so you're actually better off just starting something else, but you think "ah well I've put 20 turns in, what's two more?"
