Potato must have been one of those kids who had an absolute blast playing with their action figures and doing voices and sound effects for every little movement.
"He will be a broken man on a Halifax pier ..." - Potato McWhiskey, 2024 Awesome Stan Rodgers reference(s)!!!!!! In Civ VI, Potato McWhiskey has my vote for Emperor of Man (not IRL, though)! I laughed at the movie ideas so hard I cried! Also, Potato McWhiskey's riffing while playing while already having won is very entertaining!!
"In a world, of Giant Robots, Ice Hockey, and Maple Syrup, one country, known for it's politeness, will object to giant rampaging robots with the most polite weapons the world has ever seen. If you don't see this movie, you'll be sorey!"
NHL Professional Hockey is currently the only major professional sport that knows which bathroom to use, we see the relevance of that in this possible future.
@@Gronmin well if u manage to get golden age u can get your own gdr to fight those barb robots. I got a bit bored halfway through the challenge so by the end i eliminated all AI except korea cuz i didnt reach her in time
Thank you Potato for showcasing the grim reality of daily life for us Canadians. I myself live in Ottawa and had to fight off a giant death robot just to get to work today
Hi @PotatoMcWhiskey ! I just wanted to say thanks for creating funny and informative content. I have gone from King - Deity in the space of 3 games thanks to your advice and I'm getting so much more enjoyment out of the game as a consequence. Like you, I love thinking on my feet and strategising based on what happens early game. For example I'm playing Cyrus, started out with plans to go conquest / culture with a focus on trade, however I found 2 natural wonders with Religion adjacency so have now pivoted slightly and grabbed the penultimate religion, really excited to see where it goes. Have managed to steal 3 settlers and 3 builders with the surprise war mechanic, somehow i'm still friends with all my local civs and I'm only on turn 75. I wanted to share an interesting game I had with Canada recently: I got a religion and used the tundra adjacency, holy site adjacency generating production and then hermetic order to create super high adjacency holy sites which essentially double up as early game production zones, I was getting 15+ adjacency bonuses for religion and production early game. Unfortunately I didn't have as much tundra as I would have liked to settle, but imagine this strategy could be used for an insanely quick tourism victory. I would like to see what you could do with something similar
48:10 "just need a subtle Canadian anthem to start playing, which is probably god save the queen or something" How dare you. The Canadian people will neither forget nor forgive this insult. The moose hit squad has been deployed.
This was so incredibly entertaining to watch, I somehow scraped together both wins with about half the cities and was eager to see where the real trick of this was
Its like the Butlerian Jihad took place before humanity even left earth - without the laws against thinking machines being implemented yet. The last quarter of the game it seemed like you were now playing to become the Padisha Emperor. All hail the Emperor Potato the First!
You just love to hear potato going down the rabbit hole of absolute boredom going through the endless turns of a Civ game he has already won a long time ago. They say people speak the truth when drunk (and say a lot of nonsense) but that must be a close second.
Your action movie announcer voice hearkens back to Pablo Francisco stand-ups. If you havent heard of him, I recommend searching for some of his material.
Potato, I'd absolutely vote for you as emperor of the world. It would be a huge step up from the clowns and psychopaths that are currently running the world.
If you're looking for solid film making fun of Canadian stereotypes, and American stereotypes, you want Canadian Bacon. It stars the greatest of all Canadians, John Candy. Well, I guess Wayne Gretzky is the greatest Canadian, but John Candy is a close second.
i made settler after setler and let the robot grab one because he just sat there with it not attacking. After i settled my 4th city with encampments I started making units. I had top score by about turn 60. The easiest one so far - considering i failed on the one before to win at emporer I was happy
My man vibing to "The War To End All Wars" by Sabaton, but then completly misses not only the song, but even genre. I mean... we all make mistakes, but this, this is a travesty.
"A Canada based anime fighting giant robots in the tundra" - so basically the unwritten fall of Canada to China (before the US retakes it) in the FallOut universe?
