The city park improvement is my favorite liang promotion
That was an incredible break down of the classic tier list video. I think breaking them down into wonder types then ranking them made the video really informative and well done. Good job!

Great tier list!! I pretty much agree with what you said, though am *slightly more tolerant of the desert wonders because if they're not dead in the center, you can settle on them and add 2food/1prod to them.
Overall a nice tierlist, and well presented. Something that might make for fun tierlists are greatpeople :)

Ok so i'm only at lakes, but imo something you 'overlook' here is that the ones that function as an actual lake (all besides Fountain, and Ik-Kil) benefit from the harbor, Auckland as well as Huey Teocalli. Besides that they also count as a feature, so they work with Reyna s forestry management, preserves, the Marae, and are the only lake tiles that can be part of a national park.
@Zondagskind.Gaming
Жыл бұрын
True. Most of those things also count for other wonders, however - Preserves especially. I also think that, if you're building a wonder to make a tile good, that tile isn't very good. The Harbour synergy is one I might have overlooked, since I do address it for Ocean Wonders.

@@Zondagskind.Gaming Most definitely, it's why i put overlook between apostrophe, since i didnt want it to sound as critique. I do however think it makes them fairly unique as a lake tile. Also it makes a lot more sense to adress it for Ocean wonders and not for lakes, since you do might have trouble finding a spot for an actual harbour :)

Well done on the 300 subs! Do you have any idea how wonders which give yields to adjacent tiles work if they are next to mountains and you are the Inca? I imagine a situation where combined with terrace farms, they would be sensational…
@Zondagskind.Gaming

IIRC they get the yields, just like with Preserves. TheGameMechanic might have a series online where he had Mount Everest as the Inca.

Religious effects tier list? Just all of them, pantheons included. Would probably be a really long video though. Maybe splitting Pantheon in their own category.

Definitely I'd split pantheons and religious effects into separate videos. Pantheons have been suggested before and I like the idea.

Honestly that could be a short series, since there are four categories of them.
Great Barrier Reef is imo way overrated here, and should be put down in the C or so. (Disclaimer: I'm judging wonders by their value assuming you settle them in the start of the game). You dont really want to work these tiles early in the game,because while you get good growth out of it, having production to start cranking out infrastructure or units is far more important in the early ancient era when you are behind the AI. Meanwhile getting tech faster will generally just bump up your district costs, without actually providing much of a real benefit anyway (since you need to produce stuff like settlers/units/builders pretty fast to catch up). And getting a +4 campus or holy site out of it is nice, but nothing that game breaking. Compare this to Roraima and especially Paititi, where settling near it early almost guarantees a win by default because of the absolute stupid yields you get for free. Also anything faith related I personally rate as a top wonder automatically deserving A (assuming you settle it in the early game as mentioned). This is because getting "free" faith early is tremendously important for getting the best pantheons early on, and it allows you to run Urban Planning over God King, which by itself is a very good choice as Urban Planning is a great policy card by itself in the early game due to how important production is for catching up to the AI.

Fair enough, I think with that frame of reference all the ocean wonders drop down considerably. I took more of a long-term approach on it, and I really rate that you can use the Great Barrier Reef to give adjacency on a district that doesn't get it from other natural wonders, so it's a bit more flexible than e.g. Ha Long Bay.

@@Zondagskind.Gaming Taking the approach of valuing over the whole game is fine, the reef is better in that case. That being said, I feel like most wonders are pretty inconsequential if you settle them in the mid game or later, simply because the impact on the game isn't there anymore. Zhangyie Dangxia (or however you spell it) is a good case. Super good on turn 1, but pretty meh in the mid game. My current game had me spawn near it, and so far it led me to getting one general and merchant for free in the ancient era, and another one of each early classical. Needless to say, having a great general for no effort makes an early rush many times easier on deity. I usually dont even bother settling near it in the mid game however, if it means passing up good terrain or a strategic location elsewhere. The only real exception to any evaluation of wonders are imo wonders like Fountain of Youth etc. I never really feel the need to settle Fountain of Youth early, but just having it in the game is great, almost regardless of when you discover it. Makes for a much easier domination game, whether that is in the ancient era or Renaissance. Matterhorn is still great just because of the adjacent yields it provides, while having an incredible ability bonus as well like Fountain does.
Love the Ranking, but i think you should reconsider Lysefjord. Before the buff it was certainly F Tier, but now with its 1 Production, it is sad to see it so low. In comparision to Mount Everest, it gives the same yields, but Production. To Piopiotahi, it gives "just one Gold less", but depending if you value culture or production more, still a very good yield. Afaik it has the same spawn mechanics. In comparison to the other production wonders, i think it's just slightly worse than Mato Tipila and Torres del Paine, but much better than Vesuvius. Honestly i think low B/strong C Tier should be the case.
@Zondagskind.Gaming
Жыл бұрын
Fair enough, maybe I'm too harsh. It just feels worse to have Lysefjord spawn in a place where you can't travel with a boat, than Everest in a place you can't travel with religious units. So my disappointments may weigh more than they should.

@@Zondagskind.Gaming The boat stuff, i would mostly skip, it's mostly a gimick, just like everest (normally, you got roads to other civs, or a road, even if not, it's not really something to consider using, if the civ to convert is on the other side). The 1 production on the other hand is very important and it's a 3 tile wonder just like Piopiotahi - 2 either amazing tiles or holy site spots. In case of production - 6 tiles with +1, 3 with +2 improving 12 - like 1 tile wonders with +2 as minor yields, in relation to Torres, surrounded with plains (no hills) would be 8 (and 8 food). But on the other hand, i do not remember, if Lysefjords base tile is allowed on tundra.

@be1gl true, and Cliffs of Dover also still has a bad reputation. Natural Wonders are harder to engineer games around than civs and wonders.
Pantanal is especially great if you get Charles Darwin.
You're playing a religious game. The dead sea should have been a lot higher, but otherwise, you have it right
