I just love the fact that instead of playing a game the normal way, which often results in viewers feeling like they no longer need to go play the games themselves in order to experience it, you play it specifically the "wrong" way, which not only makes for insanely entertaining content but doesn't detract from the urge to go play it myself, but rather inspires me to get it and see how it would be to play it the "normal" way.
Josh is cut from a different cloth. He's far more different than any other youtuber and has been the only youtuber ever to make me laugh as hard as I do at his videos. He doesn't have to try hard and can effortlessly make a bad looking game into a fun one. Or make a 20 minute video seem like 2 or 3 minutes. Or make an ad into genius sarcasm. He's by far my favorite channel. I feel like other channels are just try hard funny and the editing is usually nice but there's no substance. Just rips off memes or whatever happens to be funny at that moment in time.
It's actually really refreshing and makes me appreciate Josh. We're getting advertised to constantly (Reddit for example is rife with astroturfing) but no one is being transparent about it. SEGA was smart for this, they just let Josh do his thing.
I've finally done it. From the first video ever on this channel until now, I've watched my way through the whole catalog. Through Anthony, to the birth of Grace, past googly eyes and conveyor belts. It's been a journey.
Hey, I think I know what one condition for this sponsorship was. By the way, did you know that you can explore more than 60 different culltures in this game?
Was expecting a "Many, many, many hours later..." intermission followed by the world becoming a green-glowing, uninhabitable radioactive blob filled with ruins with fun and tasteful names such as "Josh's Funland", "Grace's Asylum" and "MMMMMMMMMMMMtopia"
Me too! I was hyped when I read "Rendering the world unfit for human life" as an end-of-game condition. -- But then he did not choose the industry based Egyptians. What a disappointment :) -- Oh well, the game seems decently complex enough. So I doubt that one could figure out how to efficiently ruin the planet the first time around.
You had me at MMMMMMMMMtopia. Them: "Are you sure? I mean, the leader is a psychopath hellbent on world destruction, ridiculous taxation and driving someone named Grace absolutely insane."

Josh making it extra obvious when the sponsored lines were reminded me of that one dating show cody ko reviewed where the host made clearly ironic "hosty" lines because the network clearly made her
I feel like there was a part in the contract saying he's not allowed to break the game *too* much. Also, can anyone remind me again how many historical cultures are combined in this game? I must have missed it, dang.
Had to watch the video 4 more times to get the correct number, but I think it combines up to 60 historical cultures so you can lead your people from the Ancient to Modern Age!
Eh, I was expecting some sort of crazy mayhem or a completely broken absurd mess of a game. Just normal gameplay/promotion feels like I got bamboozled this time.
I didn’t know it was possible! I *hope* this is a new standard, but I’m sure we will all understand if it isn’t. We love you Josh, don’t hurt yourself by being you so hard.
Sega just publishes it. It's made by Amplitude, who made Endless Space/Legend. Judging by their other games this one is probably very different from civ mechanically, even if it looks similar on the surface.
I usually come to a Josh vid to enjoy chaos and surprising events, but I have to say, seeing that the Stadia still exists was the biggest shock I've had in a while.
@@CheetoChannelCity I just got my first PC and yeah stadia is just Google's try at a big name console designed to """crush""" PS and XBOX with the power of a PC Actual PC's are much better in every way and google failed miserably seeing as how even with a crystal clear internet connection people had crashes and lag out the wazoo
IT is weird indeed. Everywhere I comment, people tell me how much they love me and my content. Sometimes IT is annoying. But right now, IT would be okay. So say something nice about my content, dear q
@UCWTgYlza_NGzR1UbMooxHdw stop spamming and talking about yourself plus your not even appreciative of that fact because you say it’s annoying if you want people to like you work for it
It definitely feels like part of the ad deal included a line something like "Please dont break the game like you do with all the others." But dang Im excited about being able to play up to 60 historical cultures! Dang!
And I’m just here wondering how many historical cultures you can combine as you lead your people from the Ancient to Modern Age. Did he even mention that?
I love how subtly the scripted parts of the advertisement contract are inserted in the video. It feels almost natural if we don't know what they are. Or not.
TBH, it felt like Josh was more or less _emphasizing_ how on-the-rails Sega left him here. Which is hilarious, because I have zero inclination to check out a company that's afraid of actual honest gameplay and has to railroad sponsorships.
SUBTLY? If anything he's trying to show people what a hot garbage this game actually is by emphasizing them, that it forces the people it sponsors to spout meaningless buzzwords instead of showing the gameplay, like the comment above says. Its "marketing strategy" is no different from that of a mobile -tax evasion ploy- game.
@@JohnSmith-kb4re You don't seem to get how sponsorships work. There are things that Josh must include in the video to fulfill his part. What kind of business would give good money to someone they don't know will do their job? By the way there was 15 minutes of gameplay.

Its great seeing Josh get the opportunities to amazingly promote games as he has been lately. Though I think the thing that made me laugh hardest was him saying it was available on Stadia
My life is hard right now, don't even want to watch movies/videos or anything. The only thing that gets me out of my head and gives me 15 minutes of happiness right now is your videos. Thank you and keep up the great work!
When you’re crying of laughter like a minute into the video you can see why so many people love this channel. Always great for a pick-me-up Thanks Josh!
@@moonaddict Thats not the limit I'm referrring to. I was referring to the game ending once you reach 300 turns. The previous games Josh has played he would be able to stretch the game to its utmost limit after so many hours that ends up lagging the game.
Frame rate is not usually that big a deal in these kinds of games. There bulk of the processing happens in between turns, which is pretty noticeable in late Game, but that is probably edited out of the video.
@@Ragnarok2kx Yeah, this is a type of game that isn't very likely to ever run into that issue in the first place, unless it's running on a to weak machine. Turn wait may get excessive in large games, though, especially if you're dealing with one that insists on visibly moving everything and you can see the entire map.
it would be cool if this game had some sort of sandbox mode where you play with infinite turns, but it's significantly more difficult and there's more eras you can go into
you can choose game length when you start. 300 is default, you can choose longer. (600 max). also, you can keep playing after the 300 turn "win" condition. theres difficulty settings. not sure which he picked. can also pick number of A.I. enemies. he reduced it. and world size.
dang, this is one of the few times that "end all life on the planet" was one of the intended conclusions of the game and he didn't manage to pull it off. Maybe next time.
I started the game for the first time yesterday and while creating a new character, I was thinking how hilarious it would be if Josh plays this game. Guess my wish came true
Two LGIO videos a week apart!? Is it the golden days? A gift from the gods? Or is Josh even more psychotic than normal? P.S I want a video collage of just torturing grace, with like In The Halls of The Mountain King or something playing in the background
I appreciate you using music and showing when you have to say something because of the ad. It makes it seem less forced, more interesting and I respect you more for it
Although this feels like a ton of this was basically taken from Civilization 6 ( which was the only one I played ) I’m glad that they chose to be more historically accurate because that’s one aspect of that game that I kind of really wanted.
Ah yes my favorite past time, seeing Josh torturing -Grace- NPCs Humankind, but we all know that Josh is not *KIND* enough to not torture the NPCs xD *_"Never trust other civilization, they're evil"_*_ -Mahatma Nuke Gandhi_
Hey Josh, I've also heard that you can combine up to 60 historical cultures as you lead your people from the Ancient to Modern Age. Why didn't you mention this?
I bet a week from today if someone where to ask me about this game I'd probably say "something something 60 different cultures".... so mission accomplished
Thanks again to HUMANKIND for sponsoring this video! Click the linkie for more info: bit.ly/LGIOxHumankind_
Okay
Josh, please stay safe.
Yeeees
Yes
Will try
I love how extremely phoned-in the contract-required lines are. It's fantastic.
The whole video is passive aggressive, barely an advertisement
daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaang
its just a copy of the Civilization Series. Seach of Civ 6, and tell me how similar these games look.
@@stutterpunk9573 I love how these companies are so faceless that they'll just walk right in to setups like this.
@@dallisbrockway8329 You act like this isn't the best ad you could hope for.
"Listen Josh, you got to tell them that they can explore 60 different cultures in total!"
"Say no more!"
I mean, he's not wrong though, they signed up for it so they should expect it from the start, it's the fine print after all
My favorite thing about this is that he's super sarcastic about the contract required lines but, at the same time, his gameplay kind of makes me want to get this game.
The game is fun, but at this moment it's quite buggy due to launch and stuff is being ironed out, I'd suggest buying it next time it goes on sale
It's good. I'm a big fan of their previous games. Maybe wait a little bit while it goes through some bug fixes and balance patches.
If you have game pass ultimate and a PC it’s free. I got it that way and have played for around 6 hours. “ I’m on turn 85 of the first game”
dont waste 40 bucks on it. Its extremly shallow. ideas looked good on paper, but are poorly implemented
I totally agree
I just love the fact that instead of playing a game the normal way, which often results in viewers feeling like they no longer need to go play the games themselves in order to experience it, you play it specifically the "wrong" way, which not only makes for insanely entertaining content but doesn't detract from the urge to go play it myself, but rather inspires me to get it and see how it would be to play it the "normal" way.
It's basically a mind game, like if you see video with a title "don't click this" you click it and got rick roll

“You didn’t say anything about inflection”
I can't believe how sarcastic this video is while still being a perfectly well done advertisement.
Josh is hilarious even through an ad
I think it's one of the strenghts of this channel, I think it's responsible of all my last games purcheses and at least half of my games wishlist XD

Oh god can you imagine if youtube added this a 15 minute ad that you couldn't skip
@@j4ck_zz That'd be great! Finally a decent ad
Most of the games he plays are ads/sponsors. There is just so much you can do in 4x games compared to the other games he usually plays.
Honestly I’d like to see him play it more too. With how he plays games you know it’ll be entertaining.
It is a legal requirement for sponsored videos to be unambiguously marked as such.

Not first, but third btw lol
@Ionic777 you bet I am, my son
big chungus 🥺🤪👨❤️💋👨😳👂🦴🦿✍️🤳

You’re actually 7th
When Josh uploads back to back, it’s like Christmas came early
ikr
Josh has invested the art of heckling his sponsors into giving him money.
Josh: “we have a lot of end conditions but we’ll pick make the world unfit for human life”
All other tribes “new objective: survive”
I like how the guy at the beginning is just self-confidently looking at the camera.
He has no idea what he's in for, does he.
Turns into a Fat Diplomatic Carrot Top.
Its great seeing Josh get the opportunities to amazingly promote games as he has been lately. Though I think the thing that made me laugh hardest was him saying it was available on Stadia
@Ivan Varela So did the people in charge of it!
My life is hard right now, don't even want to watch movies/videos or anything. The only thing that gets me out of my head and gives me 15 minutes of happiness right now is your videos. Thank you and keep up the great work!
When you’re crying of laughter like a minute into the video you can see why so many people love this channel.
Always great for a pick-me-up
Thanks Josh!
Your the best josh
Yeah Josh, you're so great. MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM
I cant believe a game has found a way of preventing Josh from creating the most mayhem before the frame rate drops, A turn limit until the game ends
it's because it's a paid review, notice how there are some white texts that appear on the screen that he must say due to the contract.
@@moonaddict Thats not the limit I'm referrring to. I was referring to the game ending once you reach 300 turns. The previous games Josh has played he would be able to stretch the game to its utmost limit after so many hours that ends up lagging the game.
Frame rate is not usually that big a deal in these kinds of games. There bulk of the processing happens in between turns, which is pretty noticeable in late Game, but that is probably edited out of the video.
@@Ragnarok2kx Yeah, this is a type of game that isn't very likely to ever run into that issue in the first place, unless it's running on a to weak machine. Turn wait may get excessive in large games, though, especially if you're dealing with one that insists on visibly moving everything and you can see the entire map.
@@moonaddict Let's be real here. What Josh is actually playing in this video is Review Simulator.
I won’t lie, the delivery of this ad actually makes me more interested in getting Humankind.
I like Civ so this game doesn’t feel too outlandish!
It is basically Civ tho… there are little to no differences. Just play civ
@@Thunder_God_Eneru but tiny Buffalo
@@runawaygemm5397 true, tiny Buffalo do be tiny
@Andrej a similar serie of videogames like that is total war, check them out!
"when the world needed him most....
he disappeared....lmao"
-grace
The similarities between your avatar and Call Me Kevin's I think proves that this is in fact the correct avatar to make for this game. Legendary.
LMAO I lost it when he was renaming the city and he just held down *"MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM"*
Microwave
lol I died every time the hype music came on and Josh began selling another talking point as a joke.
Josh is one of the best maniacs in history lagging his way to find any way to break a game epic vids
"I Ruined All of Humanity Instead of Saving it" sounds like real life.
it would be cool if this game had some sort of sandbox mode where you play with infinite turns, but it's significantly more difficult and there's more eras you can go into
you can choose game length when you start. 300 is default, you can choose longer. (600 max). also, you can keep playing after the 300 turn "win" condition. theres difficulty settings. not sure which he picked. can also pick number of A.I. enemies. he reduced it. and world size.
I have tought about that. It is difficult to invent new eras and new technology to play new eras.
Wow, this game has so much going on you didn't even get to do anything really crazy with it. They made a Josh-proof game
Nah, they just appeased Josh through entertainment so that he forgot that breaking things is what he does
DONT READ MY PROFILE PICTURE :))))))))))
No he was just paid to review the game and hit advertising key points. It's obvious this wasn't like a normal episode.
No game Is Josh-proof
pretty sure you can turn off the turn limit to create a nuclear wasteland, but that wouldnt fit with the sponsorship.
I sometimes use LGIO videos as background noise. It took me 9 minutes to realize it was an ad. That’s how amazing and consistent his inflection is.
I do too. I also rip the mp3 and listen in the car. Very relaxing.
"do I really need to spell out where I want this to go"
This sentence terrifies me
And yet it didn't, which is a fantastic bit of honesty snuck into an otherwise on-rails promo.
"Ok, Josh, at no point are you allowed to say the word 'Civilization' during this video."
"Dammit, got two in there."
Dangit*
"Hey, there It's Josh welcome back to let's game it out"
Game: *Screaming intensifies*
😏
Anthony?
I’m laughing harder than expected from this 🤣🤣🤣
Good one xD
Josh's PC: *commits seppuku*
That's a genuine laugh on your avatar. 😂He's lookin good.
I feel like he’s laying it on kinda thick, but **did you know that human kind combines up to 69 different historical cultures?**
Nice
it says "AD" in the title... also do you think you can explore more than 60 different culltures in this game?
The sass this ad has surprises me, interesting they’re okay with all of it lmao
I mean....I'd hope they watched...even one. Just one of his videos. They knew what they were getting
And that's why you never give up creative control of the ad, even if you could command a higher fee for it.
Josh is amazing at creating hilariously cursed characters.
dang, this is one of the few times that "end all life on the planet" was one of the intended conclusions of the game and he didn't manage to pull it off. Maybe next time.
I started the game for the first time yesterday and while creating a new character, I was thinking how hilarious it would be if Josh plays this game. Guess my wish came true
Two LGIO videos a week apart!? Is it the golden days? A gift from the gods? Or is Josh even more psychotic than normal?
P.S I want a video collage of just torturing grace, with like In The Halls of The Mountain King or something playing in the background
My soul needs this as well
@@nathant8660 It is the perfect gift, isn't it?
You know it's a good time when Josh uploads twice a week.
Hell yeah
On yea Le s go
E
I think, it’s first time I saw Stadia mentioned somewhere besides videos on how it failed miserably.
2:00
"Rendering the world unfit for human life"
Yeah the game knows who it's dealing with.
“I ruined all of humanity instead of saving it”
So basically a normal Tuesday on this channel?
What can be worse than that
The silence when he sees the 33 turns to build. I felt that.
WOW! I simply cannot believe there are over 60 historical cultures in this game!! how detailed!!
Josh quotes
“Make my life mean something”
“aww, I want to exterminate now”
Exterminate is so fun😂
Make my life mean something! Blllaaaggg
I love how developers are all:
“Yeah our shits tight as hell, no one will break or exploit this”
*Enter Josh*
Not quite the good video for this comment but it's a good one xD
Sometimes I think they give Josh a key because it's cheaper than beta testing. If anyone can exploit or break a game it's Josh.
I think their main man for finding exploits on this one was actually the spiffing brit
He could've went much farther into breaking this game, yet he probably couldn't while kissing Segas buttcheek
I never thought you would even think of saving a human, you just keep getting us excited josh
The disbelief in your voice when you said it's out on Stadia is just **chefskiss**
The Egyptians being focused on economy is pretty cool bc we know much about ancient Egyptian life _because_ of their extensive economic records
I appreciate you using music and showing when you have to say something because of the ad. It makes it seem less forced, more interesting and I respect you more for it
2 episodes in a week let's go

Top 10 Dangerous Sentences
Number 1: "Hey there, it's Josh!"
Although this feels like a ton of this was basically taken from Civilization 6 ( which was the only one I played ) I’m glad that they chose to be more historically accurate because that’s one aspect of that game that I kind of really wanted.
Ah yes my favorite past time, seeing Josh torturing -Grace- NPCs
Humankind, but we all know that Josh is not *KIND* enough to not torture the NPCs xD
*_"Never trust other civilization, they're evil"_*_ -Mahatma Nuke Gandhi_
this game seems challenging enough, hope to see more, especially the nuke part
Got a LOT of respect for how you do sponsored content, especially including it in the video title. Promotion with disclosure
Hey Josh, I've also heard that you can combine up to 60 historical cultures as you lead your people from the Ancient to Modern Age.
Why didn't you mention this?
Daaaaaaaaaang
Daaaang
Josh, you legend, you have a super rare ability to make dad jokes decently funny. Congrats, you have a great power.
you have a power
I'd actually love to see more of this game its absolutely hilarious
I have to pause your videos to take a drink of water because otherwise I will inhale it laughing and choke. I know this from experience. Thank you
The day has finally come where Josh has uploaded 2 videos in a one week span!
I bet a week from today if someone where to ask me about this game I'd probably say "something something 60 different cultures".... so mission accomplished
I don't know why but Hearing Josh "But I wanna Exterminate them now" makes my bones tickle
Literally cannot get enough of Josh.
can we have a moment and respect the effort and patience he puts in his videos they are absolutely epic and never fails to impress us
