*Sentient deity mode activated* Edit: the video is sentient potato mode. Edit2: potato vs deity? Potato deity? Potara fusion? Veggie potato? Vegato? Vegato made a video. Hooray!
No. Still just one city. Raze their empire to the ground, surround their capital with units so they can't settle, and let them sit and stew. :P The AI needs to understand what they did. :P
Since the question was asked in the video: The meta for one-city challenge (and tall play in general) is aggressive city-state suzerainty and a religion with either Cross-Cultural Dialogue or World Church. Because both provide a means to scale that doesn't depend on your own number of cities. It's usually good to also go for Divine Inspiration + Apadana, but that one depends on if your starting location RNG gives you enough room.
Or of course, cheesing it with Ethiopia in Apocalypse mode with the Great Bath, although that's even more start dependent it means you still scale exponentially.
I know it's a year later, but the actual meta for tall (as far as I can tell) is to give loans to the other players, which constantly makes them like you for giving them a good deal, then constructing world peace and winning diplomatic victory with your wonders + emergency wins. Some people may consider loans an exploit, but I think they are sensible emergent gameplay.
My favourite part was when you remembered settlers have extra sight. I feel like you just added to the ultimate combo. Now itll be great general, bombard, balloon, AND settler.
Honestly, I really love those kinds of games where you struggle all the way through to scrap a victory, it feels like every optimal play and strats you show us really show their importance, and the suspense is even more present :)
I've noticed in my OCC endeavors that it helps a ton to chop features in the 4th/5th/etc ring. They still feed yields to your city and since they're not workable, they it's all profit. On the rare occasion that there's no aluminum and you can't get it from the AI, power generating improvements out in those rings count towards total power as well.
FYI - you can chop stone and other features and resources in the 4th & 5th rings and get the food and production from them. Seeing those unchopped stone tiles sit there all game was incredibly infuriating haha
I just noticed that the world congress logo is just the irl UN logo based on earth's continents. It would be cook if there was some way for the game to make the in-game continents into the world congress logo.
I'd love to see a preserve run as the Maori! The massive yields you get from the preserve in combination with their special building their forest bonus and earth Goddess. And being able to settle about wherever you want it's just. Perfection
Isn’t it crazy how the guy who’s entire schtick is hating warmongering is a huge warmonger himself? I feel like he should share the same ability of Canada not being able to declare surprise wars.
I've noticed the AI refusing to take peace or asking for absurd peace deals even when they're clearly losing. Don't know if this something that changed in an update. The AI always seems to get stuck at nanotechnology/Mars colony. I don't know why, but they take forever to get past this point and this makes it easy to catch up with science if you're behind.
At leas tin this case, I think it is just because Diety AI doesn't actually feel punished by war weariness or low combat power. They literally only care if they think you might take a city.
I suggest you just call him Judy. Yongle is the name of the period when he reigned, then it becomes a sort of title. His family name is Zhu, first name Di, which really sounds like Judy😂
Really liked how essential the political/diplo manoeuvring had to be. I haven't played much 1 city challenge, but cannot recommend a Portugal 1-city build enough: insanely OP and so much fun.
Didn't you do a one city challenge with Ethiopia for the release of secret societies involving the Great Bath and the Voidsingers? Or am I missremembering?
@@PotatoMcWhiskey yeah it was just for the meme i understand everyone wants you to do some funny challenges. Btw we all wait your react to rulers of Sahara leaders !
I will continue to advocate that civ 7 needs actual trains as a unit, a trader on railroads, maybe a wonder I don’t know l, and traders should be able to sail up rivers
I got nice bloke vibes from your Civ 7 videos which is how I found the channel. A pet rabbit in the background going beast mode on a bit of cardboard just confirms it. House rabbits are class
Thanks to your videos I beat my second ever Emperor difficulty game on a shuffle map with a domination win! I could've tried for culture but that was my first, i came so close to losing to eleanor of England with her diplo victory too (19 out of 20 points!) Before your videos I never thought I'd get to higher than king
Hi Potato! Seeing your graphs at the end of your video made me realize why I quit playing civ. I used to play on PS5 and loved looking at all of those in the Hall of Fame records. For some reason, the game keeps deleting all of that info. My save files are fine, it just wipes the HOF and I cant tell who I had beaten the game with. Super frustrating to deal with the crashes on bigger maps and all, but having ALL of your games history just wiped for no reason is just brutal. Happened a few times and I was just done after that.
In addition to chopping in the 4th and 5th rings you can also plant forests for appeal and to reduce the the chance of tornados, add farms of mines for adjacency etc
There really should some mid to late game techs which make mountains useful in some ways. The fact that we can't ever mine mountains makes no sense to me. The fact we can't build mountain bunkers for our military units doesn't make sense. The best we can do is really ski resorts?
For me these videos where its close to losing are the best kind. Edge of my seat are we gonna win??? Compared to knowing 3 episodes in that its a win, love it
The AI is really really bad at winning science victories. I don't know if it's a bug or what, but I don't think I've ever lost a deity space race where the AI wasn't already actively launching their mars colony when I started my satellite, and even then I've clutched a few of those. As long as you're within two steps when you start prioritizing you can outpace them basically no matter what
I went for a one city Yongle build recently against two friends and Emperor difficulty AI. Half my city was mountains, but I managed to get over 250 science by the Industrial age. Then we had to restart because of desyncing and lost 100 turns of progress because the game didn’t save the game for some reason. Even the autosave a didn’t exist.
16:55 I hope they take a look at Civilization: Colonization. I really like how population works in that game. Humankind has a similar thing going on with how military units subtract from population as well.
19:46 I do OCC! The only optimizations I'd recommend at this point is using Magnus to locus everything before switching to Pingala and I question hanging gardens being the right play as a couple of farms accomplish the same thing and is less production without giving up a tile but I feel like that may just be my preference as I'm not a big fan of Hanging Gardens for tall builds. I personally love a religion with Work Ethic on a high adjacency holy site as Work Ethic is a low priority for the AI and means you can get a safe great prophet that doesn't cost a lot in working projects. Feed the World and Choral Music are powerful but very competitive beliefs that will eat up your early production us less you get stupid lucky. Jesuit Education can be good for tempo but it doesn't feel as impactful as other beliefs so I don't tend to get it. Finally Reliquaries is good for a culture victory if you have a way to spawn relics (Kandy is right beside you or Voidsingers). I could honestly talk for literal hours on strats and builds but one mechanic that I don't know how many people really know about for a culture victory is that you can utilize your 4-6th land rings for national parks all you need is to have one til on the national park within 3 tiles of your city to gain the full tourism benefits from it so you get this giant ring of woods around your empire full of nation parks. I really hope you'll try a OCC for a cultural victory soon! :D
I will add that I commonly lag behind the AI on science and culture for a majority of the game but if you play the inspiration and eureka game well you won't feel the lack of stats near as much as it may look. Growth and production are way more important to you that a competitive science or culture number as later stages are filled with projects that will play the catch up game for you.
Hai there! While not a frequent player (heck, I've only played 3 games thru, lol!), I have done OCC's twice. Heck, it's one of my favorite way to play! like you said, it means less maintenance, so you can devote more into what you wanna do. Both cases were done on water-dominant maps; while perhaps a bit cheap, it hampers most of your rivals... unless they're seafarers. In which case, makes diplomacy even more important. I like to pair my OCC's with the Owls of Minerva, which synergizes rly well with espionage. It also pairs pretty well with a coastal OCC, since the Gilded Vault gives you extra trade routes if you have a Harbour! Trade routes to City-States + Kilwa Kiwisani = Giga Yields for your city. Being a Prince enjoyer, I don't know how well my particular strategies would pan out in a Deity match. Either way, pursuing diplomatic ties, several suzerainties, and a small private army, are all plays that I'm sure you'll want to do regardless. I hope this proved insightful!
Ive never done a true one city challenge but I did do a loyalty only eleanor where you cannot build settlers or have your army leave your zone of control - btw loved your work for ages definetly made me a better civ player
I know it would become tilting to have better AI but the fact that AI can't stop one city from winning is sad LOL...How funny would it be if you got nuked 1 turn before winning hahaha
Fun Fact: you can tell if the space race mission being launched is the moon landing by looking at the rocket. Its a model of the Apollo mission rockets.
Would building ski resorts not have been a good idea for the amenities to provide a cushion against war weariness? One builder probably wouldn't have hurt your tempo.
So here I was, working away. Lord of the rings here on my side monitor and god damn it Potato I am programmed now! Boil em Mash em Put em in a Stew! And now I gotta watch civ6 videos. I love and hate you.
It wasn’t the war weariness that was screwing you up, it was the fact that Pingala was kicked out of your cap so you lost ll his benefits plus the housing and amenities.
You mentioned a preserve based game. The new Cleopatra could be a good idea for it. You have the sphinx for appeal and then the new floodplain mechanic. I'm going to try it.
you skipped in the video the stage that you place the Theatre Square on the wheat tile. I'm curious what you have done with it either chop it or just did you destroy it with the district? These small details are crucials for me as beginner to learn from your videos
I know this is super old now, but in response to you asking if people like to play one-city challenges: I LOVED doing them in Civ5, but haven't figured out how to make it work in this game yet.
I feel like if you could create states from 2 cities or something the population mini game would be a lot more in depth. Like I know the Cities are more like city-states but the idea would be if two cities that touch borders could become a state and the population from 1 city could work the tiles of another city. There’s a buff to the second city in it’s workable tiles but you first city would suffer since it’s own tiles would suffer and the pop in the 2nd city won’t work as efficiently. But you could help a new city grow fast in production and pump out some districts/buildings
I'm still learning to play and I find too overwhelming settling too many cities, so tall games are good? (specially when not playing deity)? or just in very specific conditions? I watched a lot of civ videos and I never see people with just like 3 cities max
Yea, rabbits. My daughter wanted rabbits in HS. She got two. She went off to collage and I thought I was done with rabbits. Nope. Junior year she did semester abroad, I got to take care of the rabbits. It was a serious challenge not making rabbit stew.
How is this version of civilization different from the switch version? It was on sale and I bought it on impulse. There seem to be different systems like governors and such. Is it an updated version or is it an upgrade in one DLC pack I don't have?
In your Cleopatra game you're going to be starting soon can you try putting 3 neighborhoods and 3 holy sites or theater squares around your diplomatic quarter, to maximize appeal and protect great works.
For when you bought the settler for the sight, doesn't the observation balloon have 3 sight as well? I have always been able to see and hit a city when I have a siege unit with an obs balloon 3 tiles away
Youre so damn good at this game, i cant deal with it. I do have a question, though! Is it even possible to do a one city deity challenge with a domination victory? By burning down the other capitals? Or maybe if thats too hard by only being able to get more cities by taking over a capital? (Also im only part of the way through this, so if you do end up winning via domination, imma pop back into this comment and axe this last bit lol)
Pretty sure capitals can't be razed, and unless you take them all in the same turn and win, I don't think it would be a one-city challenge anymore, but that's just my personal view
I wish Civ 6 War Weariness was like Stellaris war weariness where the only thing it did was force a status quo peace after a war had been going on a long time
I love how you won the noble peace prize, then immediately proceeded to launch the world into a World War

There’s a buff to the second city in it’s workable tiles but you first city would suffer since it’s own tiles would suffer and the pop in the 2nd city won’t work as efficiently. But you could help a new city grow fast in production and pump out some districts/buildings
Imagine launching a Mars colony without lasers
I've had thousand year wars in Civ games.
I'm still learning to play and I find too overwhelming settling too many cities, so tall games are good? (specially when not playing deity)? or just in very specific conditions? I watched a lot of civ videos and I never see people with just like 3 cities max
41:31 "So let's let Tesla sleep" sounds like a lyric to a song sung by people with lots of acoustic guitars and hemp clothes
doing challenges is refreshing. Maybe again themed desert or all water maps (but this time with a non-trash civ for the given environment ).
Yea, rabbits. My daughter wanted rabbits in HS. She got two. She went off to collage and I thought I was done with rabbits. Nope. Junior year she did semester abroad, I got to take care of the rabbits. It was a serious challenge not making rabbit stew.
Question about the governor Reyna at 43:22...you promoted her, but she's unassigned to a city. How is she useful if she's unassigned?
Some people love a tall game, I love to see it. I unfortunately am a savage barbarian that will rush you with whatever makes sense.
How is this version of civilization different from the switch version? It was on sale and I bought it on impulse. There seem to be different systems like governors and such. Is it an updated version or is it an upgrade in one DLC pack I don't have?
very tight and interesting game! what about one city challenge with religious victory?
love the one-shot videos!
In your Cleopatra game you're going to be starting soon can you try putting 3 neighborhoods and 3 holy sites or theater squares around your diplomatic quarter, to maximize appeal and protect great works.
Please do this again... I dont know why but its so entertaining
Does going with a tall build embolden the AI to attack your perceived weakness?
I'm not sure, but I think civs like Rome under Trajan would be mad at you for controlling little territory
this is mostly speculation but it might be that since territory is important for score, the AI see's a lower score and thinks you are weak
The AI sure jumped all over him here, never seen Sweden be that aggressive but I've only hot 5 games under my belt in civ 6
For when you bought the settler for the sight, doesn't the observation balloon have 3 sight as well? I have always been able to see and hit a city when I have a siege unit with an obs balloon 3 tiles away
Love the videos so far but would you be able to post the seeds for the world's in the future so we can play along
Youre so damn good at this game, i cant deal with it.
I do have a question, though! Is it even possible to do a one city deity challenge with a domination victory? By burning down the other capitals? Or maybe if thats too hard by only being able to get more cities by taking over a capital?
(Also im only part of the way through this, so if you do end up winning via domination, imma pop back into this comment and axe this last bit lol)
Pretty sure capitals can't be razed, and unless you take them all in the same turn and win, I don't think it would be a one-city challenge anymore, but that's just my personal view
I wish Civ 6 War Weariness was like Stellaris war weariness where the only thing it did was force a status quo peace after a war had been going on a long time
