Let's Play! (first time)

[HominusPie]

Heya guys!

I’m a first time poster and thought I’d throw myself right into the fray; I’m a life-long gamer, fairly new to Civ 5 and I just started recording my own gameplay + commentary.

I'm playing Greece, King difficulty, standard size, continents.

I’d just love to get some feedback on my work (so far). So please, don’t be shy and let me know (if you can be buggered to watch some episodes) what you think. Good or bad? Love it or hate it? Shoot! Room for improvement (if so, what?) or am I better off tossing my mic out of the window?

Here’s a link to the playlist for my LP, starting with episode 1, ofcourse: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cjVLL28AENs&list=PLohts1mTMj_L0oLxGWILF2fzPVaazjt7y&feature=plcp

Watch some and lemme know wotcha think!

I just watched the first part.I'm no expert on Let's Plays or on Civ5 either, but it looks like you're getting off to a pretty good start.Good luck with the rest!

And welcome to the forums!

Btw, I know how it feels to have cats in the room when trying to play Civ.

Thanks for the welcome!

How did you mean being off to an easy start by the way? Resource/location wise or LP-quality wise?

And yeah, having cats around when gaming is a fun handicap at times!

I just meant your actual game seemed to be off to a pretty good start, but the video overall was pretty good, to me at least.

This are the believes you should pick if you are going for a diplo victory :

Founder believe: Papal Primacy
+15 to Influence resting point with City-States following this religion

Fallower believe: Holy Warriors
Summary:
Use Faith to purchase pre-Industrial land units

The fallower believe will help you to conquer attilla catapults and hoplites are verry cheap to buy with faith


If you are going to enchanche you're religion pick these believes :

Holy Order : Missionaries and Inquisitors cost 30% less Faith
Or Religious Unity : Religion spreads to friendly city-states at double rate
