I'm glad you realized how busted the game modes are. As fun as fast wins are, things like Hercules and Voidsingers settler spam clearly let you speed ahead of the AI.

@hellcy7237 Год назад

I personally enjoy "Realistic" game modes- Barb Clans, Corps/Monopolies, MAYBE tech shuffle/dramatic ages (like the idea for these, not necessarily the implementation). That way it still feels like Civ without having Cthulu worshiping Hercules build your entire empire in 3 turns

@TheCheesedodo Год назад

@galgramax6713 Год назад

Totally, while it's nice to sometimes have games when you just abuse the hell out of voidsingers, when you do it every single game it gets a little stale. No matter what I always run barb clans because hell, that's just a fantastic addition for anyone, and I really love corporations, I just wish the AI could use them too.

@Tanghero123 Год назад

Agree I like a mix of game modes to keep it fresh

@shinydavidhowell Год назад

Definitely agree with a varied approach. Honestly, if the other societies got nerfed to Hermetic Order levels I'd say that mode would work as a staple along with Clans? Because the concept of effectively a secondary bonus set on top of your civ/leader bonus set is a cool one! But Owls and Voidsingers are just wildly OP and situationally so is Sanguine Pact (there may be no more broken unit in the entire game than the first Babylon Vampire).

@drjonritz Год назад

"Diety++" (Advanced AI?) is a good game mode. Anything that buffs the AI. Another one is Zombies, cause nobody does it, but one where you convert the zombies to your side. Maybe an Abe Lincoln/Zombies (for the memes)..versus all the warring civs

@skipperxiv9401 Год назад

ALSO Also: the pronunciation of "agoge" kind of depends on which dialect (and period) of Greek you are speaking. In Ancient Attic Greek (the variety of Ancient Greek typically taught in schools) it would be pronounced "AH-go-GEH" whereas in modern, contemporary Greek it would sound something like "ah-gho-YI." There are a dozen other dialects from various regions and time periods that I don't know well enough to elaborate on but I think either of the aforementioned would be acceptable.

@DavidSmith-mt7tb Год назад

I always hear it places the first way. I believe that is the pronunciation in Biblical Greek as well. I think the card is a reference to Spartan warrior training, which was called agoge, so a classical Greek pronunciation would probably be appropriate.

@torbjrnpreusschou9030 Год назад

BUT seeing as it would be Spartan (the term stemming from the military education they had) and thus Laconia, which according to Wiki probably was associated with West or Doric Greek (not Attic Greek), it was likely more toward the latter pronounciation - "ah-gho-yii" with accent on the latter syllable (ah like AH-lmond, gho as in GOne, yii as in YIN). Very much being a layman here though.

@mcihay246 Год назад

When showcasing a Civ's capabilities, I prefer no game modes. By not using game modes, it really makes you more reliant on the Civ's unique aspects. However, when showcasing certain interactions between mechanics (Eleanor+Voidsingers, Hungary+Himiko+Owls) or just having fun, that's where I think game modes are a great tool.

@shinydavidhowell Год назад

Oh my, Babylon + Sanguine Pact is an interaction to showcase. Considering Babylon's game is already built around having a small number of utterly broken units, effectively having an extra one for free is...

@Sephyrulz Год назад

23:17 Hi, Boes. It’s me. It’s Cascadia. The guy who does this to you annoyingly often, the language guy. The word, in Attic (Hellenistic) Greek, ἀγωγή, is pronounced: ah-gō-gĒ, like in tree or three. But Doric Greek speakers, like those of Sparta from which the concept stands from, (The word was used for the crazy training regiment the Spartans went through), say it with a soft ‘e’, so like an ‘a’; like trés or thread. So, uh… yeah! Pick one?~ Either works!

@trott3r4lif3 Год назад

No game modes forces you to think more about how to incorporate your Leader's kit into your strategies and counter-strategies to compete for a win condition. Playing with no game modes (maybe barb clans is the one exception) is definitely how Civ was intended to play.

@GetShitOnKid Год назад

I recently came to this conclusion, I much prefer clans mode over how obnoxious the vanilla game barbs are

@lambda3170 Год назад

Having a camp spawn right outside your borders on turn 15 and the scout appear 2 turns later was ridiculous. At least with clans they can be bribed off.

When I looked at the title calling him broken, I thought it meant he was omega good. Like, looking over the DLC civs so far, he feels like one of the weaker ones on paper. But then you explained he was literally broken, and that just kind of stuck him on par with all the stupidly good DLC civs we have gotten so far.

@jormunganir3517 Год назад

23:16 You asked for the correct pronunciation of agoge. A little fact about the card: 'Agoge' was the term for how Spartan boys were raised. From that, we can determine it is Old Greek and must be pronounced in such a way. We know Doric Greek was spoken in Sparta (more specifically Laconian Doric Proper). My best guess, from what I have learned, agoge (or αγωγα in Doric Greek) is pronounced 'AH-gho-ghy' or 'AH-gho-gha'. The gamma (γ) is pronounced like the G in 'good'. The omega (ω) is pronounced like a long 'o', like when you do 'oooooh'. Didn't intend to write such an article, my apologies. I hope it helped. Have a lovely day everyone! Edit: I elaborated a bit on the pronunciation after realizing it might be a little unclear for any casual reader.

@AyushGupta-wn6zd Год назад

So you mean it’s pronounced “aghoogha” .

@jormunganir3517 Год назад

@@AyushGupta-wn6zd No, that's the original Old Greek version of it, which is αγωγα. We anglicised it, making it 'αgoge/αγωγη' and that version is what I am mainly talking about in this comment, but yes, I also provided the pronunciation of the Old Greek original, which is your 'aghoogha'.

Seeing this makes me super happy, because I hadnt realised how much of an advantage game modes give the player (specifically heroes and secret societies), i dont have the new frontiers pass. I had always been worried on the speed of my progress in terms of where im at by certain turns. Cheers for this vid. In regards to the content, I know youre now branching out away from civ vids but if you do produce them again, I think a 50 -50 split between game modes yes or no would give good variety. Since Ive only recently just subbed, Ive been binging your vids, and noticed you only have one vid (very short as well) playing as Australia. As an Aussie, Id like to see a full length Austrlia play through if ever thats possible. Cheers Boes, keep up the great work. :D

I think Game Modes are pretty good (some are really awesome!).. but sadly the AI cannot use them correctly, thus giving you, the human, an incredible advantage. Particularly : heroes, secret societies, etc. While others like barbarian mode are okay because not that relevant for a victory. There are also "one time" mods that mix particularly well with one particular civilization (and even custom civilizations, that's something I rarely see youtubers play!) and thus you could use them to make a "meme" game once in a while too.

@joaogomes9405 Год назад

Thank you for finally saying it, Boes. Nader Shah is so underrated. That +5 combat bonus and yields on domestic trade routes is so much better than Cyrus's +2 movement for 10 turns only when declaring surprise wars. I'd say it's even better than Magn Saladin's 15% bonus only in golden ages at the cost of not having Jannissaries.

@jgalt99 Год назад

Pingala is the right choice in vanilla at least 90% of the time. If you have some crazy Magnus start and your civ is dependent on an early religion or wonder then that's maybe 8%. 2% of the time Amani is the only way to secure a classical era golden age and that's probably worth it as well. With secret societies on it's Amani's time to shine since each first suz is a new hero and you can move her around every 5 turns to keep rolling for Herc/Himi/Sinbad.

@DavidSmith-mt7tb Год назад

Currency really is important. Playing Gaul RN. I did currency after I got oppidums. Executed a nice man at arms great general rush (vanilla Gaul with man at arms when you build oppidum). They actually declared on me before that when I settled next to them (was not a forward settle at all). Anyway, I had two iron mines and black marketeer, so I sold everything to get the gold for man at arms upgrades. Before I could start on those commercial hubs they declared a 30 turn emergency and I had to fight other people and couldn't peace out. The war has been going forever now. So needless to say I am in a 2 front war with man at arms and crossbowmen on like turn 80 and was in the negative gold range for a while. Finally fixed it with commercial hubs, which I'd loved to have built sooner.

@skipperxiv9401 Год назад

As for game modes, I like having game modes on cause they spice up the game but I also like having them off cause playing the game the same way every time gets boring.

@CayugaSwift Год назад

In reference to the question posed at around the 6minute mark; I typically play either solo or 2-player co-op rounds with my friends. We *usually* (but not always) turn on Secret Societies, Monopolies & Corporations as well as Barbarian Clans but consequently turn up the difficulty as well. If we don't have any of the additional game modes on, we leave the difficulty as is. I think watching games either using or not using them are both appealing and almost always wind up learning something new (which is why I find interest in watching them in the first place).

@TheTvnutty Год назад

I don’t mind game modes (although apocalypse mode with the meteors etc is a bit dumb). I normally play with mods, so if anything the more broken the better. I’d like to see you try the civilisations expanded mod which makes every civ ridiculously op and/or the conquer mode mod which allows you to pick up abilities from civs when you conquer their capital. Either way, playing without the game modes is fine too, although city state conversion is fun so maybe keep barbarian clans on?

@etienne8110 Год назад

Most games modes are just broken from the point of view of balance. The barbarians is the least broken one IMHO. You can still game a bit by chain plundering and recruiting units, but overall it just offer options rather than break balance. Monopolies, heroes and secret societies are just ridiculous. They are fun to play once in a while. But they just don't fit the "civ" thing IMHO (having vampires to conquer germany? )

@MouseDestruction Год назад

Pengala is only like 15% science and culture which isn't much when you are making 4.... But his next promotion gives a very large bonus to culture. Probably culture over the science one anyway, as it unlocks next promotion faster. So getting both promotions out early is more important than the one promotion. Magnus maybe 1 promotion, but even then chopping settlers is probably best use, so you want 2nd promotion again. Other option is the city state girl to get very fast city state. But then your looking at just delaying magnus or pengala.

I really like the whole early war breakdown with no game modes as it can be a general guide for early war regardless of civ. I personally only play with barb clans but even that is kind of easier for the human to exploit than the AI. As for the other modes especially heros and secret societies, they are fine but they dilute civ uniqueness and are much more about the game mode than the civ. It's much more of a "himiko/herc/sinbad/voidsingers" game/guide/series instead of a "Nader Shah Persia" game.

Just watched. I'm a none game mode guy. I'll do monopolies cause I don't feel like it breaks the game per-say. Love the content

Personally i prefer 0 game modes, but it’s your choice. I like your videos either way

Barbarians and Monopolies feel very much like parts of the game that should be in the base and it feels weird to not have them enabled imo

@boesthius Год назад

Yeah barbs especially, if monopolies didn't have the tourism part of it I would heavily agree

I do, my the fastest diety win ever was with him, 125 turns!

I think def no game modes (barb clans uber alles tho) because it gets very same-y. I think if you did random societies instead of op-picks that could be good.

I feel like everyone over chops. Lumber mills are so great and early enough that you give up so much late game.

Game modes are neat to break up normal gameplay, but I think each of them are broken in their own way, such that there’s some really overcentralizing strats depending on which ones you turn on.

G in greek, as a stand alone letter doesn't exist. To make a G sound you have to combine γ and κ. Agoge in greek is αγογή and γ makes a soft G sound, kinda like Y in yesterday. Same thing is Strategos -> Στρατηγός, G makes a soft g sound similar to Y
