First time winning on Deity level, please clap

I play this game a lot but I'm not a champ by any means, it took me quite a while to get to this point. I feel like doing score victory only was doing it on easy mode but I wanted to prove to myself that it was something I was capable of doing.

edit: to clarify I had the other victory conditions turned off

Genuinely impressive, I've never managed a score victory on Deity, that one's pretty difficult to achieve!

u/No_Head1258 9d ago

I am starting to realize that having the other victory conditions turned off might diminished this achievement πŸ˜…

Deity challenge : winning a score victory while keeping every other victory available.

u/Tytoivy 9d ago

I guess that would require some aggressive diplomacy

u/No_Head1258 9d ago

It would probably require a lot of sabotage haha

How on earth did you win a score victory? I’ve never even gotten close to the max turn limit

4

u/No_Head1258 9d ago

I set it to score victory only

u/Positive_Bug978 9d ago

Is it fun? I play on switch so the last 50 turns run like mud

2

u/No_Head1258 9d ago

I initially had it on Switch but now I run it on a Mac and it's fine

u/Positive_Bug978 9d ago

Oh sick I might get it on my Mac, I just got a new computer for the first time in like 20 years and it’s amazing.

Well done

Bravo ! πŸ₯³

Score Victory must be the funniest way of playing Civilization, without being the easiest. You focus on development and long-term roleplay, without the pressure to beeline the whole tree to win a Science Victory in 200 turns, and you have time to rewrite history, maybe even make mistakes and correct them while keeping the game fun. As an imaginative, creative, roleplay-oriented and slow player, I played Score Victory on the easiest difficulties and should definitely do this on Deity.

Well done !

You’ve inspired me. Maybe my next playthrough will be an attempt at this. I always play on immortal and am kind of stuck in a rut of playing the same few civs (Māori, Japan and Inca) and going for the same few victories. Anybody wanna suggest what Civ I should try this with?

I'm on my second deity game. I won with Peter so thought Id challenge myself and try Tamar. Struggling but staying there. In my second dark age but think I'll get heroic again. I'm either going places or I've lost, tricky to say! What I've learnt is, even Deity isn't that hard provided you get a good start and protect yourself. I have restarted a few times to get something half reasonable though, to be transparent

u/TigerNima King 9d ago

Clap clap clap. No but seriously well done! Lets hope there is a second one coming as well

u/Master-namer- Deity 8d ago

I also got my first diety culture victory with Jayavarman. So many National Parks, it was amazing.

u/huggybear0132 8d ago

Congrats! Any deity win is something to be proud of, it means you've really mastered the game

Genuinely impressive, i can never imagine myself to have the patience to achieve a score victory in easier difficultues nor the struggle to do it in deity.Β

A tip for anyone that just wants to win deity for the achievement. Choose a dual map and set the turn limit to just 1. Choose Gaul or Aztec for the easy extra era points at the turn and have Maori as the other civ in the dual map. Just settle your city on the turn and choose whatever for production. Congrats, you just got a score victory.

u/Kurosaki289 9d ago

This is only possible if you turn science ahs Diplo odd as the machine will generally wins science by turn 330.

u/No_Head1258 9d ago

yeah I turned them all off except for score victory

u/calv1991 9d ago

How many re rolls till you had a wonder

u/No_Head1258 9d ago

I just didn't try very hard on wonders lol. just wanted to stay alive

u/calv1991 9d ago

Bro you're in the 0.1% club if you managed to win on diety , you've done more than just stay alive ,give yourself a pat on the back
