It's a YouTube Short. All Shorts are in this format. This is YouTube competing with TikTok.I don't know if I'm really that old or what, but why are those videos have to be in vertical.
Even when on my cell, I never watch any videos in this orientation.
Hurts my eyes - they are placed horizontally on my face.
Sorry for the rant.
Yes, I'm aware it's a YT Short.It's a YouTube Short. All Shorts are in this format. This is YouTube competing with TikTok.
Do people not like it? I think it's great, and makes so much sense in this iteration of Civ with the emphasis on layers.I know some of us don’t like the Archeology but I think it’s a nice mechanic
And especially the link with overbuilding adds a nice flavor.
They've done such things before--I hope they give cultural victory a once-over after the dust settles from the release. My first impression is that I'm not really going to like the apostle spam you're going to need to get one.Do people not like it?

My issue is only that there are no other great works, only the one type per Age, so the culture victory doesn't feel quite right yet. I think it will still be fun though!
You can still win a culture victory without going for a religion at allThey've done such things before--I hope they give cultural victory a once-over after the dust settles from the release. My first impression is that I'm not really going to like the apostle spam you're going to need to get one.
It's okay, Prussia is still there to steal your ancient wonder brick by indigo brick and reconstruct it in Berlin.The British can't steal all the artifacts if they're not in the game![]()
That could be fun. CV without much art to speak of still seems a bit off, though. I bet there's something coming.You can still win a culture victory without going for a religion at all
I will try that my first game
- get 7 wonders and get the golden age
- no religion and get the dark age
- use the dark age in modern to get me a cultural victory
I still believe in the 4th age theory : my guess is art and music will be added as part of thatThat could be fun. CV without much art to speak of still seems a bit off, though. I bet there's something coming.
Anyhow, this isn't meant to downtalk archaeology. Seems neat.
I would like to see movies in the 4th age.I still believe in the 4th age theory : my guess is art and music will be added as part of that
- Not to mention the statuette/bust of Nefertiti and a huge collection of Aztec and other Meso-American artifacts stashed away for decades in the Egyptian and Dahlem Museums. The British might have gotten the publicity, but German archeologists pirated away with the best of them . . .It's okay, Prussia is still there to steal your ancient wonder brick by indigo brick and reconstruct it in Berlin.![]()
Theming was annoying, but I do miss great works of art.Maybe theming was a mixed-bag feature but the variety was quite neat
Any contemporary art or music would be under copyright, which would mean paying a license fee, not to mention it would exclude centuries of great art because...reasons? Not to mention I don't associate the modern age with the collection of art. If anything, a contemporary culture victory should be about movies and pop music (and blue jeans...apparently). I'd still expect those to be generic because, again, license fees.I still believe in the 4th age theory : my guess is art and music will be added as part of that
