[GS] [VidLP] Darwin Plays - Matthias of Hungary - Emperor

[Darwin420]

Hello and welcome to Darwin Plays Video Games!

This is my second Video Let's Play of Civilization 6: Gathering Storm. In this game, we will be playing as Matthias Corvinus of Hungary. Because of Hungary's city-state specific abilities, the goal is to become suzerain of as many city-states as possible. We will then lead all those wonderful armies to glorious victory.

Game Setup:
- Standard map and settings
- Max city-states
- Random opponents
- Emperor difficulty

All videos will also be posted on my YouTube Channel: Darwin Plays Video Games
The complete playlist will be posted here: Civ 6 - Gathering Storm - Matthias Corvinus

Not sure where to find the save file in the Steam folders.. will happily post the Turn 0 save if I can find it!

Feel free to drop a line and let me know what you think, either on here or on YouTube. Even though I've been playing Civilization since the first one, I make mistakes and I am most definitely not a min/max player. If there's a handy tip or trick you'd like to share, I would love to know!

Thank you so much in advance!

[Archaelicos]

I've started games as Hungary and in almost every one of them, I'm very isolated, with no CS and no AI nearby. Interesting that this game started out the same way.

 

[Darwin420]

It did put a downer on the first part of the game, although it quickly became a bonus!
