Comment on If video games actually determined our real world behavior, we wouldn't be violent we would be obsessed with powerwashing and all have CDLs.

  Whenever I play Civ I try to go for a peaceful victory. Then someone picks a fight with me and that escalates with me going for the world domination victory.

    I usually play as Victoria so I like to do themes. Like if there are a lot of other woman leaders I’ll do a Girl Power game and form alliances with them and kill all the men.

    Or if there are a lot of colonizer countries I’ll do a reverse colonization playthrough and conquer them with the help of colonized nations.

    Then there’s the genocides I’ve waged for the most sacred resource to the English: Tea.

    I feel like Civ always punished you too much for being too successful in repelling another civ’s attacks. Like, what do you mean they can take a couple of cities but when I do it it sours my relations with every single civilization on the map? Always pushes me to a domination victory when that happens. Sometimes I can manage it without gaining too much of a warmonger reputation, but it’s too much of a balancing act
