33:59 - I feel like you really look like either classic Doomguy or William Blazkowicz here, lol. But on a more serious note, I'm watching your videos (thanks for posting them, btw!) and can't get rid of this thought that building is basically non-existent in this game in some serious capacity...
Yeah, I usually live stream games with music and comments in the background. Then I upload the games without the music so people can watch them at 1.5 or 1.75 speed if they want. I talk slowly. 😁
FOMOF - thank you so much for your videos! They are so insightful. Quick question, in the games I play I always try to maximize Popularity (Hearts). Not necessarily to hit 18, but at least to be above 13, as it seems that is how you get the most points. So I was very surprised when I heard you say in another one of your videos to always get the worker star. Whenever I have gotten the worker star it has been such a massive Heart-suck that I have never done well that way. But in this game I noticed you didn't pay any attention to your Popularity and ended in the lowest tier. I guess if you are rushing to end the game in the shortest turns then maybe it doesn't give other players the time to get high on the Popularity track, which perhaps mitigates the spread of points. But it still seems that having above 13 Popularity would be a chief way to get the most points. Do you have any comment about getting the worker star vs aiming to get above 13 in Popularity in order to maximize points?
You almost always want the worker star. It’s one extra turn past 5w for a star and gives you more spread ability. Get it on your last produce if you don’t want to spend pop to produce. It’s worth it.
I’ve been enjoying this game a ton, however I do feel like Rusviet and Crimea are too overpowered, if you get lucky, it feels like you’re playing at a completely different speed than the other factions.
Thank you so much Fomof!! I love learning more about this game with every video. 😁😁
You are very welcome. Thank you for watching!

It’s definitely difficult to make building effective it competitive games.
THNKS MAN I LEARN ALOT 😁
Thanks for continuing to release content! Was this live streamed or recorded? Edit: I’m seeing the comments about it being live lol, nvm

Bidding is the ultimate balance. Because you are right. At high levels of play Crimea and Rusviet are a cut above the rest.
