There are no winners when we play games with Vale, only losers.
I don't know the shire and its mind flower at least got a victory screen
Vale not every time plays with you and he gets ad revenue. So there is a winner
There are no winners when you play Beyond Earth, only losers, Valefisk has nothing to do with it in this case.
The game is torturous on it's own... Vale has nothing on this game.
@@livedandletdie sadism is a win by itself
I was about to say the viewers win, but no
*Ok now try speed running the game.*
I hear the speedruning community of beyond earth is great this time of year
The spiffing brit comments with no reply ?
Speedrunning, or marathon with a five second turn timer?
Only four comments now?
You may said… they are “beyond earth”
The sixth comment is made. Hail Yorkshire tea.
I think what makes this experience even more painful is how much of the tech tree went unused, tons of units and buildings non of us made because we didn't want to be there and the victory condition is easily rushable
the first time playing the game, i was super confused on the victory conditions, got super bored, and just quit.
@@cybersaiyan9596 Yeah, i actually played it first time multiplayer
We got bored really quick, quit, and never returned.
Tech webs and multiple tech trees always seem cool on paper but never work.
@@AvishaiGreenstein i mean, the culture tree works.
you are not supposed to get the full tree...that is the entire point of it. To mix it up between games.

I've tried to make videos on this game many times and tbh it is always too painful to get through, god speed.
You should do a multiplayer game of this. The suffering would be delicious. Also, surely it can't be as painful as the Canadian Desert game you did?
I... I actually like this game.
There are some great mods for it you could try out to make it easier

So, for real, this game was actually a lot of fun and had so much potential. It's actually such a shame that it was abandoned by the developers so suddenly, because with some work, this had the potential to be one of the best civ games made in a long time.
well when everyons reaction 'REEEEEEEEEEEEE I HATE IT" no matter what they do what else did ya expect.
i wish people gave it chance and played as its own game instead expecting alpha centaur remake or a civ game with a sci fi skin.
its geuinely a great game but its good for the roleplay and choice and events.
@@housewilma4904 as someone who gave it a chance, a minor 179 hours, i love beyond earth and i kinda prefer it over civ 6.
@@ecogreen123 same hear.
though civ 6 is still my third favourite with its plague and red death and other similar unique modes.
@@housewilma4904 that's understandable. civ 6 is just ranked #2 for me personally.
@@ecogreen123 alpha centauri is my number 1 its technially not a civ series game on that note i recommed age of wonders planet fall.
its alot like beyond earth but faster and its new empire mode lets you connect your past saves and build a "empire" which is quite cool.
I don't think Beyond Earth was bad, but it's very different and is quite a departure from Civ 5 and Alpha Centauri so I understand why it didn't get much attention. Kind of a shame cause with a second expansion and some performance fixes it could have been a really fun, unique Civ experience.
It's "Characters" aren't. They simply are not the equal to Alpha Centauri's Leader Cast, which is why people like that game still, along with the diplomacy and unit design.
@@Jsay18 I haven't played Alpha Centauri to be honest but I can definitely see how the leaders in this game are pretty lackluster, even in comparison to 5 or 6. Diplomacy is also really weird but I do like the unit system in this game.
@@Jsay18 Nothing can compare to the glorious
schizophrenia of Alpha Centarui's leaders.
I agree it's not bad... it's just that Alpha Centauri itself was a very poor thing to market i as a comparison to. Alpha Centauri was a lot more engaging with everything from how the tech unfolded to how the victory conditions formed up (Hell my first victory in it was cornering the global energy market).
It's not that Beyond Earth is bad... it's just bad in comparison. And I think it kind of suffered from the meme status of everyone crapping on it at first and that's all that anyone really remembers of it. Particularly because of the hype and expectations of a "better" Alpha-Centauri. Kind of the same trap that games from No Man's Sky to Mass Effect 3 fell into of highly unrealistic expectations.
Beyond Earth has issues. I dislike for example the lack of "build a unit" style stuff from Alpha Centauri. I do like that Psychic Combat was dropped (and how stupidly OP it was in Alpha Centauri). I dislike how... random that the Victory conditions feel. I don't really feel like I'm building up towards things until I just get an update saying "You can win via...". As opposed to Alpha Centauri where the victory conditions were built up over the game. With the techs you learned having their little bits talking about and teasing the paths. Like the awakening of psychic potential and harmony with the planet's hivemind or discovering practical immortality and a new age of insanely wealthy oligarchs that would make the robber barons of the 19th century blush in shame at their opulence.
But the game itself? I found it "okay". I liked some concepts that could have been done better. I liked some of the struggles and progression from "holy shit aliens run!" to being able to handle them (Much better than say the Barbarians in Civ 5 which start as something easily handled and basically disappear entirely as a threat by the midgame). It wasn't horrible like it's played up... it however was nowhere near what people expected from Alpha-Centauri "spiritual successor".
@@skipperxiv9401 Look up MandaloreGaming's Video on Alpha Centauri for a ROUGH examination.
As Beyond Earth was my first ever Civ, I didn't have any expectations going into it and actually quite enjoy it. The affinity system resulting in diverging tech trees is really neat.
The affinity system is perhaps one of the few elements of this game I actually enjoy and perhaps think the mainstream civ games might benefit from.
Same here.
It had some fantastic ideas. Also the AI was much better than other civs (eveb civ 6)
It's actually quite sad that many don't like Beyond Earth because for me it was the opposite. I remember wanting to play this game so bad when I first discovered it in 2016 and last year I finally had my chance to play it. Also, it was Rising Tide which made the game more interesting unit wise because instead of only three affinities you now have six, not to mention, their designs are cool as well. However, when I compare CivB to Civ5, Civ B is a bit plain and boring. Especially in the early stages of the game, you have to go into the middle stages for things to get interesting. But in my case I did not care as much because all I wanted is to play the hybrid units and go to war as soon as possible. I had a fun time until I had to delete it because it gave my computer a virus of some sort. Hehe.
@@go-away-5555 Agreed. My first "retire" in the game was because two of the AI was about to fuck me up so good because I did not have the minimum military to be considered threatening.
I still think elements like the Orbital Layer, Ocean Cities (from the DLC), the dynamic interactions with aliens, and the quest system should have made it into Civ VI. There were really cool ideas here that never got to reach their full potential since Firaxis scrapped everything.
The quest system was also in Civ IV. I don't know why they removed it for V. But BE had so many innovative ideas and - frankly - had better execution than 6.
@@Nukestarmaster they unnecessarily removed quite a few perfectly working mechanics from Civ IV in Civ V. Never understood it and honestly made me never want to play the game again and just stuck to IV to this day. Don't get why people take a popular franchise, then change it so much that the elements on which its build on and make it worse.
Yea the orbital layer is so cool
Orbital and ocean layers were awesome in the Civ Call to Power series.
This entire video is enlightening.
I enjoyed Beyond Earth, and would have happily played it multiplayer.
agreed
Same I was like I thought it was a good game
Same here.
THANK YOU Vale was out here gaslighting me into thinking I was the only person who enjoyed BE
@@alicestolze8327 let me tell ya, it's pretty mixed 59% positive reviews overall and 79% positive reviews recently. so generally it's mixed but recently it's a bit more positive.

“These aliens seem easy to kill” - Vale, completely clueless about the Aliens aggression system in the game
I genuinely cannot believe this. I've been watching this man the WHOLE DAY, my stomach HURTS from laughing and when I'm finally done he uploads! Literally trying to kill me with all these videos, man.
This kind of makes me want to see you guys play Alpha Centauri, but through Play by Email where everyone has to scrutinize what changed between turns
fuck that to the greatest degree
Oh god
ah, the nostalgia of play-by-post
I remember grinding out (almost) all achievements in this game, the only one I never got was PLAY A MULTIPLAYER GAME
No, the harmony soldier upgrade that does flat percentage damage to those around it is just broken against any other affinity, production and affinity upgrades are pretty unbalanced and not something you can deal with if you're slightly behind
Yeah. I used to think Supremacy stackable bonus is stronger but somehow the Harmony units just plough through them like nothing even when it's just a single tank and soldiers cause too much damage before going down.
Yeah lol, to say this game has balance issues would be to implying this game is more balanced than it is. Nothing mods can't fix I'm sure though.
Generally my purity soldiers are buzzsawing through the enemy. When are you just standing next to somebody?
@@robertblume2951 Not sure what you mean, the harmony soldier have an upgrade which does percentage damage regardless of power, and the soldiers can just suicide into your units. The issue is if behind in production for whatever reason whether it be skill issue or a bad spawn, a harmony player at late game can just win by production in most of my experiences.
🤓
There's a lot of really cool aspects in Beyond Earth, but absolutely nothing feels fleshed out. I really liked the ocean and building mechanics, as well as being able to choose how you interacted with the alien life (being xenophobic, friendly, or neutral) via techs and culture. If they took another year or two on this game I think it would be absolutely fantastic.
I played it a while ago and it was cool as hell, but yeah lacking a lot. I didn’t know they scrapped it, shame
Good ideas, poor execution.
Like the beginning of Skyrim 😂
In middle school I was deep in the civ byeond earth hype train. I counted down everyday until its release, starting at least 50 days before. The last class of everyday was just me dreaming about playing the game, and annoying my friends as we walked back from school by updating them on the countdown.
When the game came out and I was at least 10 hours in, it finally sunk in that it was just an incomplete civ v with a wacky paintjob, and that this was the payoff for my multi-week countdown.
Civ Beyond Earth was so traumatically underwhelming that I have never been able to get on a game hype train ever again.
Have you considered trying Alpha Centauri? If you can placate the oddness of dated graphics and interface, the depth of the game still holds up!
Okay I wrote this before starting the video, I'm sorry. xD I grew up with it thanks to my dad and it's very dear to my heart.
On the plus side, it taught you a valuable lesson in avoiding hype trains.
@@ArcNine9Angel I did try Alpha Centauri about a year ago. Yeah, it is a lot more difficult to get into but a great joy when it pays off and the world changes and reacts to your decisions. All the wonders, technologies, leaders, even the planet itself, are so much more interesting in Alpha Centauri. I just have to get used to the controls and unit stacking.
Damn, I got scarred by trying Civ V on release (I've heard it's now good, but after the bad experience from launch day I never really want to try it again... so I never moved past Civ IV), so can't imagine what an incomplete version must be like. But yeah, seems Civ V was the same to me as Beyond Earth seems to be to you. I got hyped for it before and it was thoroughly underwhelming. This and Heroes of Might and Magic VI killed all my hype for games, until this day lol. Barely even try new ones. I just wanted to say I understand this feeling of being really let down by a game you were very hyped for, and since it's worse than Civ V in your description, your experience must have been even worse.
All who hop aboard the hype train inevitably get dropkicked off. Where you get kicked off and into what varies but we all feel your pain… and still some broken ribs
The most painful part of this experience is finding out Vale is the only one who saw Starship Troopers
The Codex mod for this game actually makes it one of my fav civ games. If you've never tried it you should check it out.
I loved that mod, but I think the quests break after a while. Also in my game I think the ai had trouble with the new resource system.
Ah, another Chad Codex enjoyer
BE was my first Civ game and i thoroughly enjoyed it - the DLC definitely makes it better.
Yup same here as well. Got to play it during a free weekend & thought it was fun so I bought Civ5 but I never looked back at Beyond Earth
Oceans actually being interesting+ hybrid affinities are fun
When your game has gotten to the point where Valefisk can just...play it straight.
Terrifying
Civ BE is a tragic tale of missed potential.
They had so many good ideas but just couldn't execute them properly and then abandoned it for Civ VI.
This game just makes me sad.
Vale was the real hero here, defending the rest against the hordes of bugs. Literally the starship trooper.
As someone who has lived near Jimboomba seeing it in a video game is like a fever dream. I dont think words can express what this feels like. It's such an irrelevant place, it's like naming your child after your postman's cousin.
Same I live near Jimboomba. It's so weird hearing it in a game.

Beyond Earth was a disappointment cause the leaders are completely one dimensional, no personality, since they have to reflect you going towards any of the 3 paths. Alpha Centauri's characters had soul, the planet itself was an antagonist, even the leaders you could empathize with the least had a point or two that made a lot of sense, such as Sister Miriam's "we must dissent" point when you built the auto managing cities project.
skill issue
Didnt see anyone else making a better game at the time in the same theme, believe me I looked. The best one was Beyond Earth.
It's not like the leaders have much personality in other Civ games. In fact, I would say that BE has more personalities in its leaders than Civ V.
@@jaydenshepard7928
...ok? it's still worse than SMAC though so who cares
@@Graknorke Ok? So go play that old game then and stop crying about a newer game that never said it was trying to replace that one. SMAC isnt even a civilization game, two different franchises at work here. They were doing something like it, not making a direct sequel.
I think it says a lot about this game that I, who grew up playing Civ alongside a father who loved the Civ games, have literally never heard of it until this video showed up on my feed. Like fully I did not know this existed, and a sci-fi Civ game would have been right up our alleys.
Hey fellow Civ-enjoyer! My dad is the reason I learned Alpha Centauri and Civ, it really is a shame more wasn't done with BE....
it says that you stopped playing civ games for a while
@@montypython5521 nah. I wouldn't have heard of it if my wife didn't buy the game for me either. I never moved from 3 to 4 and 4 to 5 would just play mods like the Rod and Dragon for 3 or other things. And didn't follow game development. I still haven't played 6 and when I get a civ itch I just load up be or colonization. Frankly yalls dissing 6 makes me think 3 and be should be fine with me forever.
When I look at it, it could've honestly been a Civ 5 DLC scenario. I would've played that game, I would've spent money on that. Cuz when you get a science victory in Civ 5, it asks you if you want to "go beyond earth." Man I thought that was so so cool...
I’m a huge Sci-Fi nerd and feel in love with Civ BE ever since I saw the trailers at Gamescom. It was my first Civ and the only one to date I’ve ever played so I don’t see any issue so far lol. I’m scared of what happens when I play Civ 6 tho…
This video had the opposite effect of the intent; i actually redownloaded it because I enjoyed it a lot when I first played it. Thanks Vale!
BE actually might be one of my favorite Civ games. I guess that shows just how much of a sucker I am for sci-fi. I really hope they do make an attempt at some kind of BE 2.
I think the people at Firaxis were really crushed by the reception. While the writing around the factions and leaders was bland or underdeveloped, you can tell they put a lot of thought and effort into a lot of the writing and I think they were genuinely proud of what they made right up until the game launched.
Ultimately I think the game comes off wrong for a lot of the same reasons people don't find science fiction interesting. It's just too... Rationalist. There is all of this thought into the science and all the cool and elaborate machinery, but far too little of the messy, squishy, and eccentric human bits. This is why people compare BE unfavorably to Alpha Centauri, which is full of megalomaniacal supervillainy and mad scientists. In AC it just feels more like people are actually enjoying being alive.
Honestly, I feel like BE was never given a fair chance due to people obsessively comparing it to Alpha Centuri and not letting it be its own game.
I disagree that there was much thought put into it at all. The setting was bland and cookie cutter and all the factions were utterly generic and boring.
The static portraits of Alpha Centauri had 1000 times the personality of anything in Beyond Earth.
You had diamond tycoons investing their money into a tech giant. Amoral scientists. Religious zealots. Military hardliners. All with their own deep backgrounds and stories.
In Beyond Earth you had Africa but in space! Europe but in space! America but in space! It was so utterly, _utterly_ banal the only way I could stand playing it was by making a modded faction.
One example of how thoughtless, meandering and lazy the plot and setting was - one of the ways you "win" is by opening a portal to earth and getting more colonists in.
Colonists who don't join your cities. And how exactly getting a bunch of useless earthlings to cross over and take up land counts as any sort of victory is never explained.
Furthermore if they didn't want to be compared unfavourably to Alpha Centauri, they shouldn't have tried to make a spiritual successor to Alpha Centauri with less than half the effort.
@@Nukestarmaster If your game is marketed as a successor to a game, takes mechanics from that game or builds upon it, I think its very legitimate to compare. It can't "Be its own game" because its not its own game, its a successor to Alpha Centauri. Its like comparing the newer reboot XCOM games to the old ones, the overall gameplay is different, but it improved massively on the original hence very successful.
I hate games with outdated graphics, the only exemption I have ever had in my lifetime is Alpha Centauri, it is honestly that good.
I still remember many quotes from wonders, technologies and affinity upgrades...
@@zephyr8072 well, it is, you just never payed attention, in the game you left earth in the first place because it's becoming unihabitable, so some of the endings reflect just that, the ending you're talking about is the evacuation of Earth, the purity ending, you win because you did the objective of the mission in the first place, and since humans are the "pure stuff" them bringing everyone left on Earth is a good thing(like a promised land), there is another ending in which you invade earth because it's a faction that believes they achieved emancipation or whatever from the flesh, and it lacked on earth, and they were going to bring it back, there is some story, but I guess people never bothered to read/pay atention to it

I like the idea that REACH CITY would be written in capital letters in every written record in that universe
I love this game, i play with dlcs and i love how the ocean looks, the idea of floating cities, and above the tec tree i love how the cities and units evolve with your civ ideologi like supremacy or adapatation. I also apreciate the atention to detail in the farms, the microsubmarine when you do a subacuatic excavation, etc
Ah Valefisk, the living embodiment of “who’s more foolish? The fool or the one who follows him?”
36:11 I love how everybody’s laughs start looping on top of each other at the mere mention of “next time”
I like beyond earth.
I like the units and affinity trees
me too
Civ: BE isn't that bad. The big problem with it is that everyone was expecting Alpha Centuri, and BE is not Alpha Centuri.
It's pretty bad. The research system is a byzantine mess, the textures are muddy and bland, the aliens are total BS, and the factions all feel the same and are put to shame by the variety from the first civ 20 years prior. It's nowhere near as engaging as civ V was, and thats really saying something.
@@theinsanegamergeek The only thing I agree with you on is the textures.
I honestly don’t think civ beyond earth is bad. It’s just different from other civ games. Some of the concepts are good and I liked the different paths you could go.
I think the problem is actually it's too much like other Civ games (V specifically). it's the raw mechanics with the pseudohistorical flavor stripped away and that doesn't leave you with much compelling at all
i just realized that d&d or something similar would be a great way to torture your friends. i'd love to see your chaos unleashed in a combat lethal one shot or something like that.

@@jaydenshepard7928 not yet, but soon. i'm caught up on all of my favorites and the new ones i've found have been very hit or miss
Day 874
Another expedition left yesterday evening. They saw a gap in the xenos, thought they might make it through. We haven't heard back from them since they went over the horizon. Nobody had to ask what happened to them, we'd all seen it before. One time, two months ago, the colony vehicle barely made it a few meters from the fence before the Manticores were on it. We barely got the fence back up before they could get in.
That goddamn fence.
On the one hand, it's the only thing keeping the tide of xenos from eating REACH CITY alive. I guess we've got that to be grateful for. But on the other hand, I'd almost prefer that.
Those xenos, they're always wandering about just outside the fence, watching us with curious, or angry, or hungry eyes. Any breakout attempt ends up with hundreds dead and nothing to show for it. We're trapped in a little pen. Prisoners of this stupid godforsaken planet. I'm meant to guard this fence, but really, who's guarding who? Because I feel like a zoo animal in here.
Sometimes I wonder what's out there, beyond the horizon. Nobody's lived long enough to see most of the planet. Even our jets can only get so far beyond the fence before something swats them down. We have no idea what. I feel like there's gotta be somewhere nicer out there, somewhere with less xenos, and no fence. Sure, I'd die before I made it fifty meters out there. But I'd see something before I bit the dust. Something new, something exciting, maybe even something nicer. Maybe that would make it all worth it.

do another game of this with DLC its more fun that way.
Such a shame Beyond Earth fell so flat. It had such potential.

So am I the only person that actually enjoys Civ:Beyond? Ok so maybe it is just that I am a sucker for all things space, but I really enjoy it!
I liked it
I love the designs of soldiers, vehicles etc and the 3 ways u can evolve into
In my opinion it absolutely is. There's some great mods for it as well that make it really shine.
I used to love this back in the day.
Sad it fell so short.
6:43 no joke a post apocalyptic mod for this would be fun, have you find famous ruins and other stuff from dead civilizations
I would love to see a video on this concept done better with Offworld Trading Company, though no idea if it even holds up. If I recall it would be easily possible to have a skilled vs new gimmick to ruin the latter's experience, or have a secret alliance going into the game.
Man, I remember playing this game when I was 13 all those years ago. I loved it a lot as it was my first civ game. It was quite sad how it just faded away from popular memory.

Nice to have a valefisk video that I can watch in the morning
That civil 3 music in the beginning sent me back in time bro. Such a good game.
I like beyond earth tbh. It also has a very nice total overhaul mod called CODEX which is actually super fun.
look this is the first civ game i bought with my own money and i love it. might explain why i like ypur videos too. I unironically have 100 hours in this game.
This is like the seventh time I’ve tried to watch this video, I’ve been too high to remember what happens at all, love you vale
That Civ 3 song sent back so many memories
Im fairly certain I'm the only person in the world who enjoyed Beyond Earth despite its flaws.
Civ is fun because you advance through the eras. Going from sci-fi high tech to sci-fi high tech with some limited resources isn't very engaging
And yet ppl enjoyed alpha centauri
A small part of me hoped that the entire video would be the ten seconds at the start and then 42 minutes of outro music. But what we got is still good.
First 5 seconds were as exactly as I anticipated. I'm hooked.
Now you need to play with the DLC mentioned
I miss Mandy's review of this game. The Australian segment was brilliant.
Now we need to see the marathon version
i really like but REALLY LIKE the mechanic of depending of the decision you made your civilization change aesthetic and idiology during the game i think is pretty cool and very interesting mechanic
It's amazing that at this point, it's REALLY hard to tell a game that's almost TEN YEARS OLD
Halo 4 turns 11 soon, could’ve been release last week graphics wise
where can I get one of these estrogen pods?

I was expecting that intro before I even opened the video

HEY!
I actually like this game. 😺
Played this with my dad one time and stole a ruins site from him so he tried to embargo me, just surround my waters with frigates. I was way ahead of him in tech and I made one demand. "Do you want to move your ships or do you want me to move them to the bottom of the ocean?" I had to move his ships.
Is it weird that I would love to see more videos on this game ?
its funny watching this and him talk about starship troopers and no one knowing, while the helldiver craze is happening
I expected a civ3 video based on the music in last video's outro. Will there ever be a civ3 video? :D
Windows 10, breaks Civ3. I'm not sure if Windows 11 has that issue but it might
I genuinely loved this game when it came out and I was 14 years old.
I had no standards
Can't wait for Vale to finally make people play Civ III with him
You better get your friends to watch Starship troopers, because they are missing out.
Oh ye this existed I recall when the yogscast did this on their civ channel with sid meier himself when it just released
actually they didnt they never played it once they played a bootleg rip off of the game before it realsed then joined the "fkthis" bandwagon and never played this.
Same, it was so bad I didn’t get it lol
Beyond Earth is Alpha Centauri without the personality.
Or the imagination.
Or the fun.
Jeez, i havn't thought about this game in years. I'm probably gonna give it a play tomorrow now that you reminded me of its existance.
Oh, Betteridge's Law, you've done it again!
The answer definitely will not shock and surprise me.
Edit: Thanks for clearing that up in the first five seconds of the video lmao.
Great! Now make this into a shorts video and have it ACTUALLY end on "NO" (0:06) XD
Nice to see a video follow Betteridges law of headlines
best time of the month is when Vale uploads
As someone who thinks Civ Beyond Earth is tragically underrated, I'm so happy a larger youtuber is making a video on it. Its a great game if you don't consider the easily rushable win cons, somewhat poor tech tree, performance issues, and everything else about the game
So the game is great if you ignore the game.
Brilliant, Hod Toward would like to buy 5 installments of it.
@@wickederebus I'm glad you understand it's genius lmao

This is my fourth time rewatching! New favorite video W 💪
I had little to no idea what was going on. It was both enjoyable and painful to watch.
In any case, interesting session and band.
Btw, are there any other vods pertaining to the this game session perchance? Any other POV's available? Planning to watch as many POV's if ever.
I particularly am curious about the pov of the one that was constantly getting besieged by the xeno's and that of the one having problems with miasma.
I played Beyond Earth for over 35 hours but I don't know anything about the game anymore
Played for 150 or so
got a little over 179 hours
I think I have like 300-500 hours in beyond earth. I had no money and it was the only civ game I had.
Civ Beyond earth was my childhood, and is what got me into strategy games. Perhaps this is nostalgia talking but i remember loving that game and its multiple paths you could take. ;-;
The mods that let you build coral, and adjust coral stats, and work mountains along with marine domes and colonize water would be great for a mostly water world game.
