Hey @ChristopherOdd I was wondering if you'd ever play the game "Her story". It's a story driven game in which you try to discover the mystery of a murder. It's your kind of game and I would love to see an actual playthrough! Keep up the good work
No, no it doesn't. The pandemic isn't the manufactured flu. It's fentanyl, that shit can get you high if you are near someone smoking it. Smoke that shit on the train and everyone is fucked
@@DekkarJr look out for future mRNA treatments, they are gonna be the next pandemic. 2025 the production facilities that are being built are planned to be finished. We will have a lot safer health against all kinds of threats.
@@DekkarJr weird all of them from china you whould think India whould be in the desise making business there more populated and dense then china is right now
Well, yeah, the voice acting is widely regarded as cheesy. I can't find any information on who the voice actors _were,_ so my guess is that they were probably employees of Numantian games. Professional voice actors can be expensive.
Chris, it's not always a good idea to try to get the maximum amount of food from an area with the Hunter's Cottages/Fisherman's, you've got to be careful about placement too, since you can't build two Hunter's Cottages too close to each other. At the beginning, you got 16 food from 1 Hunter's cottage, whereas you may have been able to get 15+15 from two Hunter's Cottages placed far enough apart. 1 less than the highest output, but more overall!
You're right. As a fanatic player of the 'skirmish' mode on hardest difficulties it hurt seeing him place resource gathering points dead centre like that of both the wood and lake. Then again Chris bless his soul has never been the best at any of the games he plays lol it's the personality people enjoy thankfully. More coverage to the game is great! But yeah he definitely could do with watching a quick 10-20 minute tips and tricks video as some prep before he continues this because sure the tutorial is forgiving but I guarantee the rest won't be and resource management is literally the lifeblood of the colony. When he demonstrated fishing building range around 9:30 you can clearly see he could get 14+13 and instead gets a mere 16 relatively central. The cottages would be much the same.
Mr. Quintus Crane has some mad laughter. And good to see that even with the apocalypse happening and mankind being confined to one city - Mr. Emperor put most effort in his fancy throne room interior design...
Strangest thing about that entire aspect to me isn't the gawdy throne room but the fact he INTERVIEWS for the general position, lol. Like normally you'd think to pick the most qualified, not the guy who interviews well.
@@danielwordenremember he said this is around the 13th attempt, and all the previous generals are either dead or insane. He probably doesn’t have much choice anymore
And if you're attempt is any indication he waits several years between attempts (guess he's immortal), which should allow plenty of time for new "experienced somewhat" general recruits to become available.@@ntfoperative9432
The better character, or rather the one that can kite worth a damn...if u could use your hero on all missions then maybe Caelus would b good as a sort of trade off..but no such luck..Caelus is so slow his movement speed is equal to the fat zombies...u know the slow ones...yaaaahhh
The only reason the tutorial stopped popping up for a while was because you went and built things out of order. The tutorial asked you to build a Tesla Coil and a Mill and you went ahead and built Sawmills and Tesla Coils. It resumed once you built the previously unfulfilled requirement: a Mill.
I Like this guy. I think the emperor needs a little bit more zealous fury, but his rule is young still. He may have a lot to learn but hes on the right track. Soon he will mow down hordes of heretics guiding his people and spreading holy fires to reclaim this world. Let's just hope that bloodshed doesn't attract any other non believers hmm.
This was the map where I learned that my economy is made of eggshells. I failed to clear every zombie near the south rail tracks and had all of my military by the northwest chock point. Rows of houses quickly spawned dozens of infected before I even knew there was a problem.
2:22 all I can think while listening to him talk is “ wait a minute. Wasn’t this campaign your idea? Didn’t you just rile all those people up? Why aren’t you going out there?”
Awesome! Also, offtopic, something I always find funny about zombie apocalypse is that, no matter how "bad" you are at it, if you kill 2+ zombies (just that) during your lifestime, then you are already on a net positive situation and eventually zombies would run out and the apocalypse would end (ignoring those stranded ones rotting god knows where)
This is how all games should do it moving forward. Create the base game then cinematic for it... Right now the big companies do it in reverse... Cinematic then game misleading buyers into buying their crappy unfinished products... I've been having more luck with alpha and beta games on steam then anything mainstream
Woo! I first got They Are Billions because of watching you play! lol Then my mom got it from watching me play. This is so cool, I'm looking forward to trying out this campaign mode!
The Billions are back! I’m surprised, but also glad. The campaign seems like it will have some length to it, and I am definitely looking forward to where this series goes. *Plays Horde assault music theme to reminisce*
Been playing They are billions for a bit and love your videos since bioshock. Didn't know you were playing this and am pretty HYPED wanna see how much more proficient you are then me
This kind of game usually isn't my cup of tea, but when you're playing it, it's a good cup of tea. Can't wait for the next episode. Also, do you know when you'll be doing XCOM 2 again?
haha played for the first time today, put my first sawmill where you put yours, casually plodded about building things then all of a sudden zombies burst through my sawmill??? and wiped me out in seconds.
It was a roaming zombie from the north that attacked your Sawmill, then all the workers in that mill converted and attacked lol. Gotta set up walls or patrols!
I know its been a long time since you played this game but you should try out the Custom Campaign on steam work shop Called "28 Years Later" It is a FANTASTIC play through. I would love to see that on your channel.
ok so! i pronounced the name calliope the same way you did when i first read it, and i was on a vc and everyone i was talking to started dying immediately. also, uhhh, this game looks amazing and i've been like waiting impatiently for all the videos!! keep it up, mr odd!!
Voice actor isnt really that amazing.. His voice rises and falls at the wrong moments, like the whole "We will retake the world" speech, he put a lot of empathis in the middle of the sentence and by the end of the sentence he had gone back to just normal speech again. I've seen some people make the Red Alert comparison, yeah. Those cinematics were campy as fuck, and we loved it. But at least the actors knew where to apply pressure in their speeches. "We will conquer our enemies for the great MOTHERLAND!" instead of "We will conquer our ENEMIES FOR the great motherland."
to be honest you could just have 5 archers shooting and be kiting about 20+Z in a circle with 1 archer as bait so you farm exp at an insane amount of speed
Wooo, I'm so excited to play! You influenced me to pick it up, I'll be following your vids on the campaign and looking up tips and tricks this afternoon to get started. Can't wait! This is giving me Starcraft vibes. ❤
The question I have is this - How the hell did they build the train tracks in the first place, if this is the first time they are expanding into this particular location?
Hi, I am really enjoying your commentary and insights into the game. My plan is to watch your entire lets play and use that as my barometer on how the game feels :)
We're back!! Full campaign mode! I'm so hyped it's not even funny. Enjoy!

Swayam Deep Dash sure this is true. But for the first level in the game it’s hardly worth considering.
@@ChristopherOdd True, looks like you got through just fine in the next episode!

Love your channel, came for the XCOM stayed for the engaging-positive community and frequent content.
What he said :)
You can actually put gates right on the tracks, they will open for the trains and give you that extra feeling of security... :-)
Benjamin Witthoff And make something like Kabaneri if the Iron Fortress?
can you turn them?
@@SteviePeeOutDoorLife Press tab to rotate the gates.
omfg I didn't know what xd

I love the starcraft vibes from this game
This was the map where I learned that my economy is made of eggshells. I failed to clear every zombie near the south rail tracks and had all of my military by the northwest chock point. Rows of houses quickly spawned dozens of infected before I even knew there was a problem.
Why'd the zombies spawned there?
@@jackdanila9893 houses contain people in them, so when houses get infected they spawn zombies according to number of inhabitants
The voice actor for the Emperor is a little lackluster... meh.
Just what I was thinking bro
@@loliammyown4928 Yep
Same voice actor as the soldier unit in the game. I guess they couldve hired someone with a deeper voice or something to do it
Yeah, the story in general feels like an afterthought to gameplay. Which I'm perfectly fine with, given all the effort they put into gameplay.
Kabaneri of the Iron Fortress: The Game :D. This looks really good!
I appreciate how you still read the tutorials. First time seeing this game so it helped a lot 👍
Thumbs up from everyone who got the quote at 5:55! :D

2:22 all I can think while listening to him talk is “ wait a minute. Wasn’t this campaign your idea? Didn’t you just rile all those people up? Why aren’t you going out there?”
put gate on train tracks for defence, then you can wall up the rail road. The train can still go through by the gate.
Calliope
Kuh - Lie - Oh - Pee. Calliope :) Was the name of a greek goddess i think and was also the name of Kratos daughter in God of War
Hello friend, I just started watching your playlist. I just wanna ask, do you ever up the difficulty setting in later videos? Thanks!
Is it me or is this Mr. Quintus Crane Dude is giving off some major Immortan Joe vibes?

Welp, just got owned by the swarm on this map >_
Thing to keep in mind is that (unless this was charged) you can paus that game at any time with spacebar.
The sass from the rangers is hilarious.
Didn't expect this. Actually, I didn't think we'd see this game again. Nice.
The Billions are back! I’m surprised, but also glad. The campaign seems like it will have some length to it, and I am definitely looking forward to where this series goes.

So glad They are Billions is back on RUclips.
I been playing it a while now. its a good game. don't listen to the Crying Casual Players that can't get past easy mode.
as a casual, the game is easy, but overwhelming
Been playing They are billions for a bit and love your videos since bioshock. Didn't know you were playing this and am pretty HYPED wanna see how much more proficient you are then me
Love this. Good to see this series back.
There is this one sound which sounds like Micheal Jackson's "Hehe"
Pull N+200 colonists
Create N+50 tents, N+ 2 Hunter and fishermen cottages
where N = mission number
This kind of game usually isn't my cup of tea, but when you're playing it, it's a good cup of tea. Can't wait for the next episode.
Also, do you know when you'll be doing XCOM 2 again?
Aiming for July 1 start date
@@ChristopherOdd Should do an XCOM 1 playthrough
I believe it's pronounced "cuh LIE opy"
Yea...I knew that ;)
It's actually Latin. So should be pronounced "Cah-lee-oh-pe" (think Spanish "e" at the end)
I go overseas for a few months and return to this (both the video and the new update). A good welcome.
So this is Terrans/Protosses vs Zergs. With some mechanics from Warhammer 40k. Pretty neat
I was really into this game when it first came out. Haven't played in a long time. You've shown me that it's time to get back into it. Thanks!
love the hogans heroes reference
