Reminds me of Arumba's EU4 Tutorial haha

it's a tutorial for complete beginners
Good thing A.I. are patient players. Lol.
When the first turn takes 20 minutes to explain, you already know there's alot to learn
I’ve never seen a pfp match a comment better
Lol that's what I'm thinking as well.
Why or play this game?

That's because xbox gave us this game 2023

Please watch the rest of this series, the tutorial is excellent for beginners and worth watching. He does an amazing job explaining everything in a concise and clear way without digressing or repeating information (a few times, but it is organic and helpful too)! He goes all the way to turn 92 by the end of the tutorial series, but jumps from time to time to speed things up.
I was about to say that repeating things isn't necessarily a bad thing, unless the thing being repeated is wrong, unfortunately a LOT of wrong stuff is put out there nowadays!
Hell, people even STILL claim that in Minecraft sugar cane grows faster on sand, Mojang(the creators of the game) have said this is FALSE as have many, many, many streamers! I don't understand why people seem to grasp to false information even when the truth is slapping them in the face!
Who else is here because the tutorial in game sucks hard?
Ayyyy
I somehow broke the tutorial.
I built the library before it wanted me to build it and I got hardlocked into a loop of it telling me BUILD A LIBRARY, that I couldnt build cause it was already there.
what tutorial? i didn't get one and i have never played any of these games.
tutorial was okay, but sometimes it was like "lol do this 'cause it's cool", like the monument, I was told to make it just as an example of a building to make, but it didn't explain how it gives me culture and what culture does.
I didn't really listen to the tutorial I just played the game
Protip: Had you settled your city on the diamond, you'd immediately have access to that luxury resource without having to improve the tile. This is very smart, and worth taking the time to get to that tile to do, if it's one turn away.
Thx, I always thought the resource just vanishes lol
wow great tip!
He probably didnt do it because of this video being a tutorial
And by crossing a river(into a rainforest hex no less) your settler ends it's turn
Skipping the first turn to found your first city,and all the delays that entails, is a bold move...

This video legitimately felt like a college lecture lol. I’m definitely going to check out the other videos. I’m starting to understand this game better.
It is so slow 🐌
I was thinking the same thing 😂 I came here to procrastinate my study and to play game but I feel like I am studying again- just different subject. 😂
I am gonna love this series. Got my butt whipped in a war on my first ever play through. They had planes and I was using musket men so I clear was doing something very wrong lol.
I just love playing on huge maps and being the fence sitter then taking over the world
@@johnfulcher8448 but how tho? Like I just played on prince and out of nowhere every single country attacked me and I legit got my entire civilization shut down and the game ended lol. I don't understand what I did wrong.
@@caveresch Work hard to update all tiles and establish trade routes internally to connecting as many of your own cities together as possible to help your military move through efficiently. Establish a religion and spread it like the coronavirus, establish a Theocracy government and set up to where you can use your faith to purchase military units and some government buildings. That will free up your cash to spend on tiles to expand your borders and give you some breathing room. Try to get your Capitol close to a mountain range, keep it central to your other cities, set it up like a spider web with each road going out to every city from the Capitol.
@@johnfulcher8448 that's just some sick strategy man! But it is effective, just like in real world 😆
@@caveresch gandi will get ya'
A few months ago I got Civ6 and had never played any Civ game or similar before, so I was the noobest noob you can be. This tutorial was just PERFECT for me! Thanks to this I really got into the game and understood how it works! Since then I did many playthroughs and am still addicted to this game. XD
Thank you so much for making these tutorial videos!!
This game will be free on May 21st 2020 on epic games store mark my words.
You were right
damn you were right

Today is my first day on Civ, and after slowly trudging through the read-heavy tutorials, these videos are saving my eyesight for the day. Extremely informative and full of great tips, I'm brand new to the franchise and this is exactly what I needed, perfect introduction to the series.
4 years later, still serves it's purpose. Today is my first day playing Civ, this is exactly what I needed.

I hope it is similar to ck3 (i just learned ck3 last month).
Ok off to the video!
@@GlobalEl1te I’ve heard that Crusader kings is more complicated hoi4 which is also more complicated than civ. If it really hard from your experience? Want to try dinner ne strategy games than
Wtf with my keyboard, i mean is it really hard from your experience? I want to try some new strategy games
@@bas8792 It was very entretaining the first 3 matches. It got old really fast. However, I'm not a big fan of board-like games. If you are into that, this is a game for you definitely.
This game just came out on the Nintendo switches. This tutorial is awesome and a life saver.
I got it for my switch too. I was so lost when I started the game. Never been this lost in my entire life
Alyona Bondareva SAME
That's exactly why I'm here lol
Same. Got it for free do to a Christmas giftcard along with Xcom 2 to try out because I've heard about both begin good before. The tutorial is booty. I quit after turn 16 and just went to RUclips because I figured somebody on here can do a much better job, and I was right unsurprisingly. I really want to give this game a fair shot.

Quill - you are my first stop whenever learning a new strategy game like this. I have never tried a Civ game in all my years gaming (30+ years). Yeah, I know, I'm living under a rock. So my first Civ experience is Civ6. I just want to say THANKS for putting this content out on YT. As I consume this some 5 years later, the content is a godsend! Thanks quill!!
Even though I figured the game out on my own, I still watched this tutorial after and I must say I love it so much, it's very beginner friendly and Quill does an amazing job explaining things to someone who is completely new to the series. "It's more so it's probably better"- love it :D
I know it can feel very overwhelming at first but it's equally rewarding when you have played a few games.
Don't worry too much on what is best to research first in the beginning. You'll learn what suits your playstyle and your starting condition after a while.
I missed my research/productivity grind the first couple of games lmao
Never fun to be stuck with Crossbowmen and musketmen during the industrial age
You took the effort to make a tutorial! God bless you, sir.

@MR FREEZE-98 It's because James McComb said "God bless you," so Antony Khoury thinks he is an atheist.
Thank you so much for this. This is a much better "tutorial" than what the game gives us. I loved the concept of the game was getting so frustrated with not understanding things. The entire series you provided is excellent.
Fantastic video. Just bought my first Civ game on Steam, and I love how you're explaining everything and keeping it simple and straightforward.
following you for like 2 years now, always seeing you playing civ 5 and now 6, but never understand really what was happening. I'm so happy for tutorials man, thank you so much =)
LOL....
LOL....
LOL....
LOL....
.........'snorts in disbelief' BRUH!
This is extremely helpful. Believe it or not, this is my first Civ game that I've ever wanted to play and this tutorial puts things in the most plain terms possible. Thank you so much for this series!!!
I really like the speaker's vocal tone. Very welcoming, like a very knowledgeable friend taking you through the game in a logical fashion. Much better then the in-game Advisor and hidden game menues, that's for sure! Thank you for creating this. I'm looking forward to watching the rest of the series.
Thank you so much for taking the time to do this! I don't know how appreciated you often feel making videos but just wanted to let you know this mattered. Have a good one man!
First days into my first ever installment of the Civ series and happily plodding along with the tutorials as they unravel here. Thank you so much for making these tutorials, they are great!
Thanks Quill you did a great job through the 6 episodes . I enjoyed your commentary. You took a game that was a bit overwhelming and made it easy and fun to play.
This is so helpful! I have been trying to figure out how to play. I did the tutorial in game….but you still need a base level of understanding. I really appreciate how clear you are… and the explanation and recommendations on how to start. It really helps to understand the symbols and the terminology so you can make an informed decision. I wish I had found this at the beginning…can’t recommend enough! Thanks for taking the time…think I will love this game now I get more about how it works. Off to watch your other tutorials now!
Thanks for these tutorials mate, they are very clearly thought out, well presented and reflect the complexity of civ vi
This is so intricate it feels like an online lecture lol great tutorial! I'd also suggest that beginners pick Russia and get those extra starting tiles for better yields and save on early gold expenditure for tiles. Also, bear in mind with difficulty King and above, barbarians will have a go at you soon after you settle so have good defense if you don't want to rebuild your stuff
Tutorial was insanely helpful as someone brand new to the game. Thanks brother, VERY well done series!
I'm new to the series as a whole
I consider myself pretty intermediate at the Civilization games as I have several hundred hours in Civ 5 and Civ 6, so I'm not necessarily learning anything new from this series. I am, however, learning how to see the game from a beginner's perspective since I kinda forgot what it's like.
You are incredible at explaining every detail and mechanic that a player needs to know! You're very concise and informative and I don't feel like you don't linger on any one point longer than needed. I am definitely going to send this series to a friend that wants to play Civ with me (if I don't have the time to walk them through everything you did here).
I know this was made almost six years ago, but keep up the amazing work! I'm also interested in perusing your other content, so I'm excited to see what's in store for me!
Great video. First time trying a Sim game since Sim City a hundred years ago. After starting the game and staring at a screen for a few minutes, I went in search of a beginner's tutorial, none of which were for true beginners. All the game interface has changed in the last 5 years, this was immensely helpful.
I’m so excited (I don’t have a pc )
It’s coming to the switch next month I can’t wait I played it at my friends house and I loved it ...
This tutorial is great, I really enjoy your style. I like how you address a ton of things but do not overexplain. You saying "we don't know what that is, but it's more, so it's probably better" is great because it stresses that I do not need to understand many things yet :)
This vid bout to blow up. Game just went free on Epic and its the first to pop when you search civ6 guide.
What is this epic games? some company is just giving away free games now? Please explain
@@tastethejace epic store gives free games out once in a while.
90 seconds in and you've basically already covered my 'first ever Civ game' mistake. Learning happened - took for ever :D
Fantastic tutorial, man! I pretty much dove straight into getting my ass handed to me by AI after playing through the in-game tutorial but still watched this whole thing just to make sure I didn't miss anything, and wow, it's really clear you really took the time to think this through from the actual perspective of a new player, taking care not to overwhelm us with too much information at once. You make a great teacher!
100% agree. I wish more tutorials were like this. Doesn't matter the subject matter.
Your delivery and approach to teaching is actually very impressive. Very helpful video 🤙
Just got this on the switch and finding this very helpful !! Thank you !!
I hope to pick up Civ 6 for Christmas, so thanks for doing this. I can be better prepared when I start playing!
JRF2k :) You are going to have a wonderful christmas.
And a very short one ;).
I just did
I didn’t know it was possible to be this good at explaining something
I just got this game on switch and I'm literally so confused, I have no idea what to do
Do you still play?

Yup I just bought it today on PS4
Just bought it last week on switch
Bro appreciate this so much ! Just now learning about this series, looking to pick it up on PS4 and the Switch.
Very well done! I've been playing Civilization since the first one - but HATE reading directions. Your video is perfect - I learned LOTS and I appreciate it.
My friend suggested this game to me but I struggled a lot with it, but with your help and a little motivation to keep playing, I'm not too bad at it now, so thank you!!
Thank you very much. I got this game a few days ago. I played the tutorial, and didn't understand the game at all. I was about to give up on it, but then i found your tutorial. Now i think this game is super fun.
I just picked this up on ps4 cuz of henry zebrowski kept talking about it on- last podcast on the left. An I’m loving it
Thank you for this video! I just got Civ 6 for the Switch and I felt really lost, but this video helped a lot. Can't wait to get to part 2.
😂😂😂I felt exactly the same
I actually feel the exact opposite is true for map size. The bigger the map, the easier it gets because the more likely it is for you get your own little corner of the map where no one bothers you. Just like how more AI civs means more allies and friends - weaker civs that have fallen behind are a lot more likely to ally with you.
Can't thank you enough for this. Even with the tutorial, there still so much to wrap my head around.
THANK YOU!
I’ve only ever played civilization revolution so this is a little overwhelming.
There is a lot more to take in
Man who you telling. I'm like how much different can it really be from civ rev?
Nigga 100 percent different 🤣🤣🤣
I'm still wrapping my head around this shit.
I just hope like in revolution I can just be neutral and build up my one base to be super op 😂
@@justinbrown327 let me find out 🤣🤣🤣
Amen brother
Thank you for this. I started on PS4, and this is my first Civ game. The in-game tutorial blows so much. The guide woman rarely speaks, and when she does, it's only to tell me what I just did. I basically blundered through my first game randomly figuring out how to do stuff. It took me fifteen turns just to figure out that I had to build my capital with my initial Settler.
As a console player, I’ve only ever played Civilisation Revolution and I loved that game! Looking forward to playing this game 😃
I still play civ rev. I love it and mastered it. Now for civ 6. 😁
Just started playing this game and man did I experience a lot of confusion and frustration. I have never played any of the previous games which added to the chaos. I learned so much watching from watching this video especially about the benefits of the tiles, settelment placement, etc. The video is still helpful 7 YEARS later!!
75% sale on steam on Black Friday, a couple of friends recommended Civ 6 and now im here
lel same my teacher recommended it to me
It's on sale again right now. Going to make my days go by faster as I'm "working from home"

I've always been curious about this game and decided to see what it was about. After watching you teach for about 5 minutes I knew I had to buy the game, and now I can't wait for it to finish downloading :)
Quill, is there any chance you could do a 1 episode "catch up" that goes over new things from the expansions?
I don't really need to watch this, but I'm doing it anyway because it's cozy :D
And its Quill. Quills tutorials are best tutorials. Like a warm fuzzy blanket.

I used to play the very first Civilization I, I loved it, played it for hours with an old friend. Then I stop playing (life got in the way) and some years back got into Age of Empires because I liked the real-time aspect better. I was always meaning to get back to the Civilization franchise, and finally about 30 years later I bought Civilization VI, but it was just overwhelming to learn. This tutorial is exactly what I needed. So I just wanted to say THANK YOU for your time making this video. -OldTimerCivPlayer
Literally the exact same person. I absolutely loved the first one and would probably prefer it over this new one. Sometimes overly complicated is not more fun. I’m going through my first play thru right now and it’s incredibly frustrating and complicated therefore not fun.
And then I come here to learn but this guy’s mouth noises are so nasty that I think I’m just going to give up and go back to ghost of Tsushima new game plus.
Civ 4 is the only game in the series I have played and I am about to buy 6. I have forgotten everything I did know and you have taught me things I didn't know. Thanks!
I have to say that I'm surprised this wasn't actually a joke video about playing as Scythia and build lots of horses to crush your enemies and get loads of money.
that would be powergaming civ for beginners, no fun
As usual a very nice tutorial of quill. You have always been my guide of the civ games. Thanks
I am so glad to have come across this! I found you through your Beginner series for Rimworld which helped me alot with that game. I just picked up Civ 6 on my PS5 because it was on sale and I had been wanting to try a Civ game for awhile now
omg man, your work is amazing!! I just found you and I really liked everything on your video, really great explanations!!! Thank you!!
Dude, you're a natural teacher... This is one of the best tutorials I've seen, period.

(for those who don't get it, period means . so if you say "period.", it technically means "..")
@@duck3619 redundancy is key 😂
MUCH better than the in-game tutorial. Good job.
Thanks for this. I bought Civ VI years ago but never really got into it because I didn't really understand it all, so I've been sticking with Civ V. Thanks to your tutorials I'm now re-installing Civ VI and I'm going to give it another go.
Quill18 is great at explaining game mechanics. Very well made series!
Everyone Else: Got civ 6 for free
Me: Still has steam
Your energy and speech pattern feels a lot like Milo Thatch from Disney’s Atlantis and I’m living for it. It’s so appropriate for this highly historical game about ancient civilizations.
Always wanted to jump into Civ ever since was massive fan of some similar games when very young and have always appealed. Epic tipped me into it and this video sounds fantastic from the bits I have skimmed through. You present very well in your explanations and I will be returning to watch the full video once I install.
Thanks again, perhaps a new sub incoming :D
I'm completely new to the series and this video is very helpful. Thank you for this.
i'm way too overwhelmed by this game and the menus, i hope this will help!
You are not alone. I am there with you. Some of the stuff in the menus they don't even explain what it does. Still trying.
Been playing the game for years, my only advice is to NEVER trust Gandhi
@@skysix5733 Yeah, I just bought this game after playing Civ V for several months, and the Civ VI Civilopedia is a huge downgrade from V.
My History teacher let me play this on his laptop (in school; hes awesome that way) and I was immediately intrigued. I have always been a fan of ancient civilizations, especially greek and roman.
He taught me a few tips that he learned like using your territory to separate two other civilizations, and make them pay to cross for trading. Really cool game!
Shao Xun Leong Man I wish I could’ve played this in school
Just picked up the Anthology collection on sale over on Steam and I'm REALLY digging your tutorial. Great explanations!
So far one of the best tutorial series' I have seen on any game.
Very thankful to your tutorial. This is my first time paying Civilization, and I was totally lost, when I started the game. Your tutorial is a big help. The only issue is that I'm playing on Nintendo Switch and I think I'm getting confused with the controls, other than that, at least I'm starting to understand what the hell is going on on my screen lol 😂

Finally bought this game after YEARS of playing IV and V. Wow this game is different, there are so many different features to keep track on
I played Civ on the DSI it was super fun so for some reason i randomly remembered this franchise and wanted to play again and wow the game has changed super thankful for these guides you helped me a lot
Very informative, you'd make a good teacher.
Firaxis should pay Quill to do one of these once a year. I tried playing civ5 once, and got very confused. Then I saw a video like this on this channel. Ended up buying civ5 with all the expansions, beyond earth, and will surely buy civ6 as soon as I get some time to play it.
I am doing an assignment to optimize getting science victory in least turns possible. I started off with this video as I have never played this game before. Very helpful. Thanks !
Your tutorial videos have helped me a great lot figuring this game out. Thank You!
Just picked this up on a steam sale(80% off!!), honestly looks like the most complex game I’ve ever played. My plan is to play Russia, install communism, start up the Soviet Union and start amassing a nuclear arsenal 😂 Think I have a lot to learn before I get to that stage though 😂Great tutorial though, look forward to watching the rest of the series!
Thank you Quill. Bought Civ 6 a few weeks ago. Never played before. Jumped in and started a few games. Realised it was massive and needed help. Watched all 6 of your beginner tutorial AWESOME work man. Very well presented. Going to start my first big game before coming back and checking out your specialist tutorials
