I'm late to the game and just saw it on sale and bought it, having never played any Civ games. This tutorial was SO helpful, as I was completely lost in the beginning. thank you!

So far 7 minutes into the video and I already learned more about the game than during the entire in-game tutorial.

Seriously, why has such an awesome video like this one not have much more views and likes

If you aren't a teacher irl your talents are being wasted! Such clarity and conciseness. Cheers mate!

[erikhendrickson]

There are very few activities I find more relaxing than sitting around and playing Civ 6 all day on rainy Saturday afternoon.

Three years late to this one but it's still the best tutorial I've found. Just picked civ 6 up on summer sale and allready loving it

I just bought this one on a whim, having played AoE many years ago. I was completely overwhelmed and not having a good time at first, and I nearly put the game down after an hour. Your tutorials have made this game so much more enjoyable, I can’t even tell you what a difference it has made. I’m starting to get obsessed with it, so THANK YOU for making such fantastically helpful videos.

I remember that I was looking forward to playing Civilization 6 when it came out, and then promptly getting my my ass kicked on Settler difficulty, no less! I tried a few more times and gave up on the game, preferring to go back to the more familiar Civilization 5. I credit your videos with giving me the confidence to go back and try Civ 6 again. I'm having a great time now with the game and look forward to seeing your intermediate level tutorials!

Just picked up the game, first Civ game and first time playing anything in this genre. So I was so lost😂 I wanna say thank you for this beginners tutorial, it was a genuine relief and I really started having fun after watching it.

As a math teacher, I want to commend you on your ability to clearly explain a new, complicated topic to a wide audience. I was just given this game by a friend for Christmas, and I really had no idea what was going on in the one game I played. You did an amazing job of defining your audience, and then proceeding to patiently describe each new aspect of the game without going too slowly. You didn't dwell on the small repetitive details, and you strongly emphasized each major point. It sounded like I was listening to you read off a well-constructed slideshow presentation while showing game footage. You also made it clear that there is more than one way to play the game, saying that there isn't necessarily a "correct" sequence of events the player needs to complete. Well done, keep it up! I'm excited to watch the next video in this series!

Best tutorial for any game I have ever seen. So well spoken, well edited (cutting all the boring things out in turns, and nice transitions). Every 10 minutes I felt like playing the game just to try the things you have recommended. GG.

My dad introduced me to Civilization Revolution and I loved it. Saw Civ 6 on sale and realized how complex it is compared to Rev lol, can't wait to get back into the game

[donloughney]

Just received the game for Christmas and without this video, I was lost. Great job explaining the basics. Really appreciate it.

[MegaIronica]

That was a great tutorial. I watched a few ones until now but this is the first one that explained effectively some basics. I played hours in my first game and didnt realize yet that the science/culture/faith points in the top left corner are what determine how many turns a certain development takes. It clarifies so much things and it's only in your video that I understood that. Thanks a lot.

Getting back into Civ after like 8 years. Glad this was available.

Now that I've had my first win, I came back here to give a comment and my thanks. I watched all your beginner videos and I have to say that they are the best out of all beginner videos I've watched. I was able to understand what you told even though I had just played around with two leaders beforehand and you answered all my questions AND helped with the troubles I had (I was so bad at fighting and now I've conquered all the other civs' capitals after my cultural victory). Now I actually know what I'm doing! I recommend everyone to watch also the rest of these beginner videos!

[Thasolodolo.]

Played the game when it first came out for about 30 hours and haven’t touched it since but wanted to get back into it, Thank you for this, super concise yet detailed and the use of the vanilla format is greatly appreciated

[sparkylp]

Bought the game last year on sale (switch version) and tried playing it without any knowledge about Civ whatsoever. Today on the 5th of February 2023 I'm watching your tutorial which amazingly teaches me how to play the game I got myself more than a year ago. Thank you so much

[jerrymcbroom]

Used to play civ 2 on pc years ago. Best game ever. Just started civ 6 on ps4 and was very frustrated. This will help enormously. Thank you

[immaculatesquid]

The youtube algorithm needs to take a hint and boost your channel already. I'm sure there are plenty of Civ Niche youtubers and you seem very capable.

[Nicole-dkcn]

THANK YOU. I splurged on this during the summer sale and it is so different from civ 5. It was genuinely so distressing that I almost gave up in my first game and went back. I'm going to binge all of your videos now.
