The only guide to Settling in Civ 6 a new player will ever need - Ancient Era - Civ 6 Rome Tutorial

[Mathmachine]

Rome may not have been built in a day, but it was settled in a turn.

Civ 6: came out 7 years ago.
Potato: here is how you start a new game.

Appreciate the continuing love on this game tho!

Game: Settle across this floodable river!
New Player: Ok! (Moves Settler over river and ends turn)
*1000 year flood*
*You have been defeated*

Potato; "People reroll to get really good starting areas"
Proceed to reroll for a crappier starting area

You should mention that barbarians cant destroy your capital city, but they can attack new settlements successfully.
I still feel the pain..

I introduced this game to my wife. She is interested so we are playing a chill game to get used to it, and immediately she said: Gotta catch them all. (Referring to wonders)

Amazing how despite playing this game for 7 years Potato still manages to teach me stuff I didn’t know.

Even as a veteran player I love watching beginner guide videos like this. it'd be really fun to watch you progressively move up in difficulty and introduce more advanced concepts

I'm so happy to see CIV overexplained again! This is how I learned how to play Civ, and since I'm getting my friends to play too, this is a great video for me to send to them. Thank you so much potato, and I'm very grateful for this! Keep doing you!

Playing Maya helped me understand how close should citys be, and how to play with strengths of a leader in mind, so I think Maya helps a lot with learning civ6

I remember playing Civ III about 20 years ago, knowing nothing about global strategy games, just enjoying to watch the little camels of the caravans moving across the map. I started playing Civ VI after almost 2 decades of not gaming strategy games around christmas last year and I got hooked again, but also pretty frustrated, because the game became so much more complex. I watched your series and many of your others vids and I’m really happy that you do this series. Yesterday I gave myself the “permission” to play Rome in Settler mode and I enjoyed having a really easy game where I achieved a science victory for the first time. Was it a bit too easy? maybe, but hearing you say in 22:10 that we play because it’s FUN really resonated with my experience. I don’t have to rush myself to higher modes when I’m not ready for them prove that I’m a “real” Civ gamer or that I do it “right”. By starting the game I AM all of these things and the fun should be the main thing. So thank you not only for your explanations but also for “life advice”, just wanted to let you know that you have a positive impact in more than just one way with these vids ☺️

Doesn't matter how long I've been playing this game. These are always my favorite. Always a good touch up on basic stuff that may have slipped my mind or learn something new

[mikecarpenter]

Big props and respect to potato for always preaching fun when playing games!! Too many people take games way to seriously nowadays

[caesarsalad]

Potato's the one that got me confident enough to win my first games at a difficulty greater than Chieftain. For that, I'll always recommend his tutorials!

In terms of scouting I usually have them follow rivers, to reveal the ideal areas to settle, it also can give tactical defensive advantage from barbs.

I've had this game for like a couple years but never played. I suddenly started playing it last week and already racked up a hundred hours. Game is VERY addicting. discovered your channel around the same time I started playing and this video helps a lot to get the more basic functions.

[louloulou]

potato gets salty when AI steals his colluseum, ... starts a prince game with the plan to build wonders for fun ;D Great video and well explained

[dylanvansill]

I’ve been watching your videos for about a year and playing for a few years. Still learning every video from you. Thanks for the great content

Shoutout to the Empire screen for showing the yield of districts. 19:24 This is really handy to help newer players understand just how powerful well placed districts really are.

I have many thousands of hours into the Civ franchise. I still don't consider myself an expert in any way, shape, or form. That depth is why we love this game, and I love these vids because the back to basics information is still good to hear, even for us old heads.
