Civ V Vox Populi Let's Play with a mix of Mod Review and AI Test
120:00 Game Setup
6:00 Gameplay begins
Ill have to be honest with you guys; I never thought I would play Civ 5 ever again. Not that I gave it much thought, but it wasn't even categorized on Steam. I have it with a bunch of other games I don't plan to play in a cat called "Tier 2 Games". Then I have a completely unnamed group of games I got for free like Crazy Taxi. At least it was not with those games.
Why am I playing it then? Well, I am always on the lookout for high quality, deep and complex or just straight up difficult strategy games. So when I saw a post on Reddit in r/4x asking for the best and hardest to beat AI I read that thread. Turns out many people were saying that the Vox Populi mod fits that description. When someone linked to another thread talking about something else and they were also bringing up the mod, I stopped playing Rome 2 with the DEI mod, which was going to be my first video series playthrough and downloaded Civ 5 again with the mod.
So what is this video series exactly? As the title says it is a mix of things. It's just me playing the mod. It is also me rating and talking about how good I think it is, as well as how hard I find it to be. In this first video there are not that many new features that come up so it's mostly be talking about my opening strategy in the base game compared to what it is in this game.
I think certain people will find my unique personality and playstyle interesting to watch and listen too. There is no "frat kid" vibe going on in my videos, I will never tell you to "smash that like button". If I did call the cops because I have been kidnapped and am crying out for help!
I am just a 41-year-old with over 30 years of video game experience playing games and saying the first thing that comes to me. Give it a show if you want a different kind of Lets play.
