    [BTS] What are some of the basics of winning a Cultural victory? I've never won one

    Is it about building buildings that give culture as soon as they become available and getting Great Artists? I feel stupid when I say i've well over 1000 hours in Civ IV but i've never won a culture victory, I just never looked into how it is done.

    [GS] How come I am getting a free Governor promotion for no reason? (picture included)

    I am 2 turns away from completing Mercenaries when I get a free Governor promotion, it doesn't look like I got one from a tribal village. I got no notification for that and I don't remember sending my scouts to go for one. In the first photo you can see the free Governor promotion when i'm...

    [BNW] I'm getting screen tearing in Civ V on my UHDTV plus the game crashes when the map loads

    I'm using a laptop and it's connected to my UHDTV via a HDMI cable. I can play Civ VI no problem with the set up but with Civ V I get what is screen tearing. Well TBH i'm not sure if that is the right term, there is a scrambled sound the same times the screen looks like it's tearing. The screen...

    I haven't play Civ VI since April, has the AI improved much since then?

    I heard about a couple of updates since then. Is the game more challenging? I played on Immortal and didn't get much of a difficult time.

    [GS] Is there a way to turn off "Rock band music" when other Civs use a Rock band?

    I'm fine with listening to the music when I use a Rock band, though I skip it most of the time. But it's annoying when other Civs do it, especially multiple times in a single turn. For me listening to Civ VI's OST is a big part of the game and it's annoying when it is interrupted. I get a text...

    [GS] Can Diety be difficult if you aren't a warmonger?

    I'm thinking of playing on Deity since I win on Immortal easily. I am not a warmonger and I like to found my own cities. I certainly don't like to archer rush a nearby civ in the Ancient era, take that civ out and snowball hard from there. Can Diety be challenging with these conditions? As I...

    I used to win in BNW at up to Immortal level, what difficulty should I play at in Vox Populi?

    I played Civ V with the BNW expansion (without Vox Populi) up to before Civ VI released but I haven't played Civ V since that got released, so that is around 2.5 years. I heard it is wise to move down 2 difficulty levels, at least according to the streamer Marbozir. Plus with the AI being...

    [BTS] Tried out a game on Noble difficulty, I got conquered in the Reneissance era

    I pissed off Genghis Khan, who had a big army and the Inca, Japan, Egypt and Aztecs (who were my next door neighbours) as vassal states. I had a lot of Musketmen and Crossbowmen plus Longbowmen, I also had some Pikemen and Macemen. But when Genghis attacked my first city he brought a lot of...

    [BTS] Is this game challenging without an AI mod?

    After being disappointed with Gathering Storm i'm moving back to Civ IV again. I've only played at Prince level in IV before but i'm willing to give it another go. In Civ V you had Vox Populi which really improved the AI, in Civ VI the DLL source hasn't been released so there is no AI mods...

    [GS] Which Civ is the best choice for your first game at Deity?

    I thought Korea before GS due to the immensely powerful Seowon but now i'm thinking Canada due to the AI not being able to declare Surprise Wars on you.

    [GS] What happens if you Request Aid at the World Congress after you are hit with a Natural Disaster?

    Does you get any benefits or is it just a chance for an opponent to win a Diplomatic Victory point?

    [GS] What are the downsides to your cities not being powered?

    The only negative I can think of is decreased yields from Tier 3 buildings in districts. Are they are other negatives?

    [GS] How can you tell how many foreign trade routes are passing through a city of yours?

    In GS Reyna's very first ability (which you don't need to Governor promotion to get) is +3 Gold per turn from each foreign trade route passing through a city of yours. However from my time with R&F I don't know how to tell where this occurs, which of your cities have foreign trade routes passing...

    [GS] When should we start getting Lets Plays of GS on YouTube?

    From big streamers such as Marbozir, quill18, etc? 2 weeks before release?

    [R&F] What's the earliest you've ever seen the AI build a spaceport on Deity?

    I was watching TheGameMechanic on twitch and I can remember seeing Nubia having a Spaceport built turn 191 on standard speed, that was pretty early IMO. She had 270 Science at the time.

    [GS] Hungary: First Listen

    Geoff Knorr has posted the Ancient, Medieval, Industrial and Atomic era variations of the Hungarian music in Civ VI on YouTube. I'm really liking the Ancient and Medieval era ones.

    [GS] Is Ed Beach the lead designer of Gathering Storm?

    PC Games N had an interview with Ed Beach and Dennis Shirk. They refer to Ed Beach as the lead designer and Dennis Shirk as lead producer. However i'm wondering whether they misinterpreted Ed Beach being the lead designer of vanilla Civ VI, Anton Strenger was the lead designer of R&F so Ed...

    I feel like getting over 10 thousand gold at the start of a Golden Age is OP

    I was watching Marbozir play Vox Populi, the video is dated from August 8th of this year. When he began a Golden Age with Brazil he went from 16,983 gold up to 27,547 gold. This was during an Industrial Era war with Montezuma (turn 424, Epic speed) and he was able to purchase Field Gun's...

    Is Progress the Social Tree to start with always?

    I've yet to fire up Vox Populi but i'm watching Marbozir play on YouTube. On the social policy screen, it says "Progress is best for Civilizations which desire robust infrastructure and scientific advancement." Science in Civ games is always very important. It lets you get more advanced troops...
