  1. given you can buy buildings outright, I think the nubians might be very strong for early on in the game. also, being able to get faith early could be a big deal…

    there is an infrastructure building that does a lot to help keep your cities stabilized. even without administrators (which play an important part in stability as well), you can build a lot of cities. the other big thing that helps I think is trade… you get bonuses per copy of resource you're trading for, so luxury goods can give a lot of stability in all cities if I remember right. yet another reason why gold is a strong resource imo. losing stability could be caused by losing access to those resources…

    food, basically anything in between 10 and 50 is the same (and over 50 doesn't do anything unless you're a food civ charging up your ability). there are other thresholds as well (I presume 0 is one, for example). more food helps but only if you're going over one of the thresholds, as I understand it.

    one more thing… most of the special districts you can build (in your case, those pyramids) can be placed anywhere in the lands a city controls. you can then frequently build other districts off of that. so instead of building a maker's district in that second city, you could build pyramids next to a good location for a maker's district, and then build off of the pyramids. I'm not 100% sure that's true for every special building, but I think that's how it works.

  2. Super excited to see you play this game! Cant wait for the full release and to see you traverse it. Ive seen a few gameplay were they fight the dear with 1 party, I think you should definitely do that in the beginning if you can find it to get the food resource, but much to learn! Excited for the next episode!

  3. I saw Humankind already on another channel, but your explanations are much better. Good job! 🙂 BTW there seem to be some pretty nice city locations in the general area where you killed the second mammoth.

  4. Little question: Why didn't you place your second outpost in the "province" of the Great Barrier Reef to gain all the bonuses? And there was a very good starting location on that 4 production tile next to the Wonder…

  5. Nice showcase of this game! I love the artwork for the different cultures.

    Do you know if culture bonuses stay for the next era or if you then only ha e the bonuses of the new culture you choose? And are the cultures exclusive for one player? Can an AI be egyptian after you selected that?
