  1. Really sad you didn’t lock pope fish research. I thought you get the remains of a hero when you defeat them and can loot their items. Does it not apply to ancient wonders? Also Please do more AOW.

  2. Think you've made me decide to pick this up. And I honestly wouldn't mind if you pivoted to this more than civ, it makes a nice change from yet another chopping campaign

  3. I really needed a game right now whilst I wait for Tear of the kingdom. This looks fantastic from seeing you play it, you really should've been sponsored for this because I wouldn't've bought it otherwise

  4. I have one question about this game. To understand whether things that give me X per turn are really worthwhile, I really need to have an understanding on how a game of AoW4 would be? Say when I play civ, I know I can expect 200-300 turns, depending on what and how I play it. How long are those games in AoW4?

  5. Yes please do more AOW4 I'm laid up from extensive knee surgery (Im only 30 no less) and you're AOW vids are keeping me entertained through this recovery.
    I can't wait to be able to get my hands on this game myself.
    In the meantime thanks for your content!

  6. I can only assume this makes sense to players of AoW 1-3, because it sounds like MadLibs to me, or maybe a game invented by AI: not quite gibberish, but…

    Potato can go ten minutes at a time without repeating a single stat, just a stream of statements like, "I definitely want to get the Throne of Kendar, because that grants a 5% bonus to all frost, and my stability is high enough now that stone towers can be upgraded to crystal, which is great. I really need that crystal upgrade to reduce internal dissent by a straight 2 points per star mushroom production per turn, since my Nuffle population is demanding a second mana transmogrifier, which I need to satisfy in order to take full advantage of that 10-health slinger bonus when traveling on a north-south axis. That is absolutely huge, because I'm beginning to explore the Undercaves, which are a good source of thaumium if you have enough kobolds to use it. Now, you can already see how the mountains here are cutting into my elemental efficiency, which is why I'm going to give an elf stone to Morgatha, which frees up his holy lance, which is good, because I now can consume that for a ten-turn boost on coconuts of Quendor production in all hexes next to my capitol." Not his fault inasmuch as I expect it must make sense to someone. Just utterly impenetrable to the rest of us, a game built of accumulated special cases.

  7. I am enjoying this new game and series, but I am having a hard time keeping up with your fast-paced tempo.

    I also thinking cutting the battles or cutting the extra clicks confuses me, as I am trying to figure out how did you get to that certain page, but it just instantly appears due to your editing. Maybe something to take note of – I am still enjoying it, but it is a lot for me to digest in that quick pace you are at.

  8. Well done, I just spent money on a game for the first time all year X-D

    No, seriously, I hope you keep up with the AoW4 content – it seems to have a similar audience to Civ6, and it's just nice to watch you play a game you're so evidently having fun in.

    (And yes, this is mostly an inane comment so the algorithm knows it's a good video and suggests it more lol)
