AGE OF WONDERS 4 IS A PERFECTLY BALANCED GAME WITH NO EXPLOITS - Everything Is Broken

You wouldn't pay someone to break your game :_spiffKappa: Also yee can check out the game here: play.ageofwonders.com/SpiffingBrit

I like to think that Spiff is just the final stage of QA and testing before release.

I like Paradox. Other companies like to hide problems. Paradox pays the Spiffing Brit to break their game publicly.

I love at 7:40 the leader of the other land says "Salutations, Barry THE DESTROYER." And asks for him to respect their territory. Sure, that's going to happen.

I love it when game mechanics can be confused with exploits. Generally makes for a fun game!

"Its not a war crime if there are no survivors" -Spiff

1:06 - "remember kids, it's not a war crime if there's no survivors" I'm going to hang this sentence on my wall 🤔

I noticed something peculiar. In the info popup for Chosen Destroyers at 1:45, it says that you do start at war with everyone. However, 21:20, it says you only start with a 300 relations malus with everyone. I hypothesize that they had originally chosen the former, and changed it to the latter at some point further in development, but failed to update the tooltip popup to reflect that until Spiff informed them, which they fixed in the middle of this video's production. EDIT: Wow, 195 likes is by far the most I've ever had for a comment, I think!

I want to see a multiplayer game where each person takes one of these tactics and see which one wins.

Spiff is literally a bug finder for devs

Finally, a game that allows Spiff to power an entire society on the souls of the innocent.

zealots are summoned with mana, but their upkeep is gold you can see yourself gain ~40 gold per turn after winning the battle at 8:20 after a couple of zealots die. at least one part of the game isn't broken lol. you can also see your gold per turn go down by 8 at 6:05 when you summon your first zealot.

0:48 Oh god, he can't turn it off, he's began breaking everything on instinct alone, even the English language!

My god 16 seconds ago? Last time I was this early my gf said it was normal and it happens to every man at some point.

reminds me how on age of wonder 1 you could make your leader a literal God, didn't even need an army at the end of the game, perfectly balanced.

Spiff is the type of person to buy a hamster, exploit the worlds laws of physics to create a laser cannon, and put it up against a dragon

The spiffing brit cant be stopped he’s making the best content now

Perfectly balanced

For those wondering about the last custom army, the specs that matter are: Tome of Faith, Fast Recuperation, Overwhelm Tactics, Fuedal, Silvertongued and Bannerlords. He picked humans too, but, that's not necessarily a big deal if you pick another given that the traits can be changed.

the good thing is, Triumph Studios has a history of great support and communication after release. While even bugs in total war games will mostly never been patched you can expect the first update with balance fixes a few weeks after release or even shorter
