In a way I'm glad to see pre-release preview players "break" a game this sophisticated since it means they've played it hard, noticed stuff going sideways and pass on their discoveries to the production team, so we get a cleaner product, hopefully with release fixes. Kudos.
I was going to comment some words of support towards what looked like a quality, yet small channel just starting out. But then I started thinking... how come this channel got Civ VII access before posting a single video? How come he's got the editing and presentation down already. And how come his voice is so... hang on a minute... that's Aussie Drongo! Lovely having you making content for this game as well Drongo!
These combinations really show the strength of the leader/civ disconnect. There’s so many other paths to find from the leader, Civ, civics, governments, stx
So nice to see a TH-camr that actually puts out interesting civ 7 content that pushes a specific strategy! I was planning on doing somthing very similar to you except instead of Confucius pick the Incan leader and use the specialists to actually get food from mountains to grow even more. I may use your strategy instead even though your strategy seems to want to actually use the specialists for you know winning instead of getting more food. Also very specific question but if you place a library next to a resource as the Mississippians to take advantage of the food adjacency from resources for all buildings then pick the scientific golden age legacy that makes it so library adjacency carries over does the library still have food adjacency? And if not what is the theoretical maximum yield and effects you could get from the golden age buildings. Also do great people bonuses like the one that gives science to a library carry over into the next age normally or only if it is on a golden age library or neither. Thanks!
I actually had exactly the same idea just from reading the game guides. Confucius + Khmer + Hanging Gardens is an epic combo. Looking forward to actually being able to try it myself. That bug is a bit concerning though.
Well, I was already planning on playing Confucius with Khmer my first game, so I guess I'll just have to watch out for producing too much food and breaking the game
A few of the people with early copies have noticed that the version they have seems poorly balanced making it easy to win. Generally, I think we all expect the launch copy to be more of a challenge.
I'm looking forward to playing as much as the next guy, but don't get your hopes up too much. Things won't be too much different, every Civ game is like this at release...
With the way that TH-cam algorithm works, it's best to let it do it's thing rather than funnel people from elsewhere that may not be interested in the video.
Civ 5 looked great, 6 looked terrible (only play with civ 5 visuals mod), 7 easily looks best yet! I do wish the scale of buildings was more similar to civ 5 though
They went with this style specifically because people bitched about 6. Honestly, 5 looked terrible for the time and 6 being so stylized was somewhat of an improvement. 7 looks extremely high detail and they're finally back to the black unexplored map so.... guess they finally decided to just listen and give the player what they wanted
Whats weird is the land when it’s uncovered looks amazing, but when it’s hidden it looks awful the paper map look from Civ 6 worked so much better then these weird dark black boxes
Wait I thought this was just a usual clickbaity title about breaking the game in gamer-lingo but it literally broke
"So I took that personally" - Spiff after watching this, probably
When I saw the title I thought it was Spiff 🤣
My thoughts exactly haha

I was expecting that to be clickbait, and almost didn't click it out of principle.
I'm so glad I did. That was a very fun watch!
Harriet Tubman leading the Normans is the Meta strat I dont know how people dont realize this yet.
Explain it please.
Thanks for the explanation
Explain it please.
Great video. Short, sweet, and no annoying face overlay blocking these gorgeous graphics

When you posted your first video on discord, I was delighted to see someone focusing more on the crunchy side of the game. Keep up the great work!
Such a nice video.. Love the editing and effort done on it.
I think you're going to be one of the most successful Civ 7 youtubers - great work, I'm here for it

Great video buddy. Loved the insights and how you built your strategy! Looking forward to plenty from you when embargos are fully lifted 🙌
Good to see an interesting Leader/Civ combo. I might try this one.
Hey! New Drongo channel? This content will be great, can't wait for more. ☺
I wanted to play this as one of my early civ and leader combinations. Hope this gets fixed :)
Here before this channel blows up. Seriously this is very high quality

This was my first game strategy I strategized. Cool to see it in action before I do it. Khmer + Confucius is goated.
great channel that youre growing, keep it up!
The Spiffing Brit will hear of your shenanigans!

- "oh wow found a new youtuber doing civ content"
- "dammit drongo!"
I recognise Aussie Drongo thumbnails regardless of game
Well, I was already planning on playing Confucius with Khmer my first game, so I guess I'll just have to watch out for producing too much food and breaking the game
Nice production value.
Aussie Drongo?!? Localized entirely in my civ 7 video?!?
So, Drongo, was it not enough for you to break AoE 4 that you had to come here to break Civ 7 before it even launches?
love to see my man drongo in civ7 too
brother im not sure where i heard ur voice before, do you have another youtube channel?
Same Drongo from BAR and Deadlock?
the Maurya the merrier?
If it's not the tip of the iceberg, what is it??

would civ7 be able have some decent multiplayer gameplay?

great video
I am like! thank you friend :)
Oh hello drongo my aoe 4 goat.
Why is every content creator for civ 7 saying mOmento? I thought it was just the yanks but now I'm thinking I might be going mad
What’s civ 7s new difficulty level called?
“Just one more turn” you lose automatically because you never sleep
I can see chatgpt a mile away, get out of here.
Aussie!! The AOE4 Legend :) Hi
Found you Aussie! Why don’t you give a shoutout to it on you main ?
With the way that TH-cam algorithm works, it's best to let it do it's thing rather than funnel people from elsewhere that may not be interested in the video.
@@JustOneMoreTurnI feel like the Venn diagram between AoE fans and Civ fans is a circle.
Why does bro have 2 videos and 500 followers? You sound familiar
I sacrifice a comment for the algorithm.
and then a crisis occurred and the population went to zero :) JK - great video
😊
Awesome. The game isn't even released yet and people are already ruining it lol 😂
This does not look good . The game is going to have so many of these little options to break it.
Civ5 looked okay. 6 and now 7 seem to have lost the style and the art
Civ 5 looked great, 6 looked terrible (only play with civ 5 visuals mod), 7 easily looks best yet!
I do wish the scale of buildings was more similar to civ 5 though

@@Rose-ew7bv It was a cool idea, but I wasn't crazy about civ 6's "paper" map - way too much brown on the screen all the time...
