Sid Meier on "Rise and Fall" in 2010

Posted: 07 Feb 2018 02:23 AM PST

I coincidentally was watching this Sid Meier GDC talk from 2010 this evening, and came across this remarkably timely passage (time-coded link).

Another bad thing that I did in the original Civilization design was to include this idea of "rise and fall". You know, wouldn't it be cool if you built this cool civilization, and then you had this set-back, and it started to crumble, and just before it disappeared, you rescued it and came back to win even more strong and powerfully than you did before? You know, wouldn't that be an awesome experience? Um, no, not really.

What we found was that just at the cusp of the crumble, most players would reload a save game, and they would never experience the glorious re-rise that we had in mind for them. So Civilization is basically a game about progress. A game about rise, rise and more rise. And not so much the fall.

Uh, oops? On the one hand, it's interesting that he literally calls the core concept (and name!) of the upcoming Civ expansion a mistake, 8 years earlier.

On the other hand, it shows that the idea of "Rise and Fall" has been kicking around at least in Sid's head since the beginning. Maybe the implementation in Civ VI will work because when you "fall", it doesn't just feel like bad things are happening and it will never get better. The "Dark Age" has an explicit goal and a promise that if you meet that goal, you'll rise again. So maybe Anton Strenger finally managed to design out of Sid's hole.

Honestly, I'm getting sick of "rise, rise and more rise" after countless Civ games that started off difficult, and then I snowballed out of control and the last 15 hours were about mopping up rather than competing. I'm looking forward to being put back in line, without just being arbitrarily punished by the game for being ahead. Here's hoping!

Please change the colour schemes of the blue/white civs!

Posted: 07 Feb 2018 03:02 PM PST

Currently France, Pericles's Greece, Scotland, and the Mapuche all use a white/blue colour scheme. While this is very fitting for say Scotland and France it is nearly impossible to tell the difference between them at a glance. The blue's vary only slightly. America has also been pointed out to have this scheme although their blue is relatively distinct in comparison.

I am proposing firaxis change the civ border colors in this fashion;

France- Main colour royal blue, secondary colour golden yellow. This is to represent their historical Fleur-de-lis.

Scotland; Remaining as is with the blue and white.

Greece; Remains as is- this is because we are used to it although swapping the primary and secondary colors of scotland and greece would maybe fit better as greece has more white in their flag and it would be a homage to marble- while scotland has much more blue in their flag.

Mapuche; Their flag has bands of blue, green, and red. Their flag's central emblem uses yellow as a primary and burgundy as a border- this would go well to give them a south american feel and directly contrast their historical enemy- spain's red primary and yellow secondary.

Thats all and I hope you guys agree! If any of you have better ideas for colour schemes I would love to hear it and include it into the post as alternatives- but I think we can all agree the current colors do not work.

CQUI Status Update from Author

Posted: 07 Feb 2018 03:20 PM PST

Azurency:

I will work on updating the mod, for now I don't know how much time it'll take (and this update is not Rise and Fall, so there will be two updates in fact, I think). I'll start working on it this weekend, and you'll be able to follow the progress of the update on the GitHub repo.

Just in case anyone was wondering. Good to know it will be coming down the pipeline soon, thanks for making such an amazing mod!

As a mid 30s adult with responsibilities is this really the wrong game for me?

Posted: 07 Feb 2018 04:04 PM PST

Damn I wish I'd discovered this game 10 years ago!

It's just, there's so much. Even trying to watch the most basic guide is a time suck, and I just want to get into it enough to enjoy playing. Is this a pipe dream?

GreenManGaming CD Key tonight?

Posted: 07 Feb 2018 04:59 PM PST

Hey guys,

I took someone's advice here regarding purchasing of R&F through GMG. They have not announced anything yet - it's my first time pre-ordering with them. Can I expect a CD Key in 3 hours when game get released? Thanks!

Looking for a Civ 6 multiplayer series to binge

Posted: 07 Feb 2018 09:48 AM PST

Similar to how the Yogscast has done, but with competent players. Is there a series or channel that does multiplayer games?

A thank you to r/civ

Posted: 07 Feb 2018 11:29 AM PST

I got no response from the mods on wether am I allowed to post this or not, so I am sorry if I can't.
I'll try to keep this as short as possible. Exactly one year ago, I uploaded a video I have made to this subreddit.
Honestly, I didn't expect nothing to come out of it. I thought some people would check it out and I would get a few upvotes. I thought nothing much about it. I went to sleep and was surprised to receive so much attention. I got 10K views on YouTube and 2K upvotes on Reddit that night. To those of you who are too lazy to view it - it is basically a shitpost which covers the problems of Civilization VI in a humorous way. People here liked my video, I got a lot of support, it got me really motivated, so I continued doing videos. Fast forward to now, and I have 7 videos about Civilization VI in a nutshell. Recently my videos were criticised - to the point where I decided to take the link here down. And I can understand why. Is this format old and unoriginal? Probably. Should I come up with something new? Probably, but I don't have ideas right now.

Despite this, I am still really thankful to every one of you who was there that day and gave me hope and motivation. Even though this channel is just a collection of shitposts - for me it means a lot. It means I can entertain multiple people, and even make them laugh at once without interacting with them in real life. Today I have 6K subscribers and in total 1.6M+ views. And it is all because of this sub.

Wether I succeed or fail in the future - I will be forever grateful to this subreddit for the opportunity it gave me. Thank you.
