Sid Meier's Civilization **New guy walks up** "You know if the king's army conquers a coastal civilization we could *HAVE* whales." **Cut to original guy decked out in "We Love the King Day" Merchandise**
"Do you know what a whale is?" "No." That sounds so bloody familiar. It's weird how your cities start demanding some obscure luxury that is literally only found on one single tile on the entire map that you won't even discover until 5000 years later.
@@agirimeikawa944 City State: wants to see Machu Picchu. World: WE HAVE NO MOUNTAINS (I've actually played on a map with no mountains before. It's really weird).
Civ V will never stop being a beautiful fountain of comedy. Nor will it ever stop ruining History exams everywhere, because apparently "when Augustus Caesar nuked George Washington's capital city in 1873" is not a valid answer to "what event led to the beginning of World War I?"
+Sasquatch At His Computer "What caused the war between European and Native American empires in the colonial era?" "Montezuma is a colossal warmonger and a prick who settled a city on top of MY coal deposit." "A for effort." XD
The mechanic always chooses a luxury available in the world that you do not have. Therefore, it punishes people who collect luxuries. The secret is to trade away all the luxuries you can and only get the ones that people demand back for a little while. Makes total sense. Then everyone just demands cloves and Jakarta is stingy, so you're screwed for the rest of the game.
The biggest thing that grates me in Civ5, Citizens demanding whales. Meanwhile the great search for the mythical body of water called the ocean continues.
"Do you know what a whale is?" "...No..." That is so true...i had so many games where my cities would demand for luxuries that i haven't even discovered yet Its like "WE DEMAND COPPER !" Me:How the fuck do you know what copper is?
+starfire 23 Consider this. You're a dirt poor peasant, and someone says "Hey, they discovered some weird metal called copper." "What does it do?" "It can conduct electricity." "What's electricity?" "Fucking magic lightning." "That sounds COOL, why don't we get some copper?"
+Crick1952 Neither did I. But now we know. And knowing is half the battle! (The other half is red and blue lasers.) Also, since the idea is to make Mexico pay for the wall, it might count as you building the wonder, in which case it'd be immediately obsolete, right?
+Crick1952 It might still be worth it, he'd get a wall and the defensive bonuses it applies in the city of "Texas" (When playing on Earth I name my cities after the rough area they inhabit). And if the American Empire has the appropriate Aesthetics Social Policy then He'll get a culture bonus for building it.
lol Civ VI doesn't even have that many female leaders. Only 5/20 are female. And besides Catherine di Medici, they're all pretty important. I don't know why people think civ vi is trying to be pc.
Cool Dude I tried to go for a culture victory. I stayed to myself on my secluded island until one day, I got attacked by one of the ai out of no where. I successfully defended and they gave me one of their cities in exchange for peace (who could deny a free city) Hundred turns later they all denounced be because I was a blood thirsty "warmonger"
You guys suddenly just popped out of my recommendations. And now I'm subscribed and binge watching your videos. :) Keep it up. also, thanks RU-vid. sometimes you do give good recommendations.
+Anti-Brony Missionary Wales is a country, you clearly aren't from the UK. The U.K. Is a country of countries, 4, infact, England, WALES, Scotland and Northern Ireland, all 4 are countries.
I thought that they were just making stuff up with the whales and crabs, but then I played Civ 6 for the first time and found out that they're actual resources!
There are so many great little bits in these skits, they're just so thoughtful. And I love how that brave escaped worker is still fighting for the people!
I once had every single luxury on the map (I was Portugal, and used the unique tile upgrade on all the city states). Naturally all my cities started to demand silver. There was no silver in the planet. At all. But they still wanted it.
Super Beary have you ever even looked at trumps actual plan. He doesn't want "no foreigners" he wants no ILLEGAL immigrants, people who move to the USA without any permits or anything.
I've been rewatching most of your civ 5 and 6 videos and I gotta say, this one didn't use to be my favorite, but I think it is now. I mean, there are great things about every one. Hilarious things even! But the guy demanding whales ........ He's just too good. Perfectly captures the spirit of today's mindless sheep. Almost scary, actually, how you were able to demonstrate it. Now I wish he was in more of your skits - he was really good!
I like to believe that the whales guy originally wanted the country of wales, but he has an extremely low attention span so he changed it to whales and stepped outside his house, and the video ensued.
This is even funnier in german cause the german translation for "whales" and "elections" is very alike ("Wale" and "Wahlen"), so it seems like he's demanding elections instead of cheering the king even if he don't know what an election is XD
Historically speaking the term "King" was used as a term for the ruling monarch and was originally gender neutral despite being mostly used by males. There have been several instances of royal females taking on the title of King but as far as I know no male rulers called themselves Queens. Being a spouse of a ruler with royal blood doesn't give you the rights to the monarchy. A good example of this would be the British monarchy where Queen Elizabeth's husband who is still considered a "Prince" in his nineties is waaaaay down the line for royal succession.
