Lets play Humankind – Lucy Open Dev
Finally I got my hands on the new Amplitude game: Humankind. We have until December 28th to lead humanity from the stone ages into an advanced civilization. There are all kinds of cultures and ideas to choose from, battles we can have and technologies to research. Please keep in mind, that the state of the game does not represent the final product. It is a Beta and is still under development. The open dev features the first 4 stages of humanities development and I will try to get through all of them. Let’s find out what Humandkind will be capable of if it was us writing its history!
To participate in the open dev Lucy you need to pre-purchase the game and follow the instructions here: https://www.games2gether.com/amplitude-studios/humankind/blogs/749-lucy-opendev-available-now.
I don’t have any partnership with amplitude or a key-store, so I wont provide a direct link to buy the game, nor will I compel you to do that. Just watch my content and decide for yourself if you want to invest.
If you like the game, support Amplitude Studios by buying this game. Such strategy game developing excellence should be rewarded!

You cannot ransack an outpost when a unit is sitting on it. And for some reason attack on the unit in the outpost requires war declaration… War declaration is also interesting topic 😊 It seems in this dev version you can declare basically anytime on anybody. However, if you do not have enough war desire you will be getting a traitor trait/badge. I suppose this influence the diplomacy with other civs, but it also gives bonus to ransacks etc.
I suppose you know that but clicking on this small magnifying glass icon in the notification, it will bring you directly to the diplo screen with the civ (player 2 whatever)…. But I am still not able to see immediately what effect is the notification informing about….
And last but not least I really enjoy the unique districts., but as unavoidable some are much better than the other. Egyptian pyramid is awesome, maybe too much 😊 You can build it anywhere which opens up a lot of opportunities for the other districts. In some territories this may save you long process of building lines of districts to get to some interesting place… Later on this is solved by (so far in my eyes) best district you get for all via technology (trying not to spoil much 😊).
So I hope you will be able to get to turn 150, there is some interesting stuff in medieval or early modern era 😊
You should disconnect your controller your mouse is flickering because of it.
For the rounding issue with the turns left they might have just used the wrong function, like Floor instead of Ceil or Trunc instead of Round. Some simple and usual programming brainfart which is probably long fixed 🙂
