Finished my second game. My first game i thought i did okay but i lost and i realized i was going to lose so i looked for ways to win and there were barely any. There wasnt that much fame i could get before the game ended. Despite having built like 10 wonders in the last 2 eras. The thing is that i was only getting era stars in 2 categories and thr other ones i wasnt even closr to get my first one. Which made me question if it was a good idea to go to the next era as soon as possible. I always waited in case i was just 2 or 3 turns away of getting an era star bht not more. The fame you lose by not getting era dtars when you go to the next era are lost forever.
So i played differently this time. I stayed longer in an era and tried zo have a more balanced ppaystyle and oh boy did it pay off. I won the game with more than twice ad much fame as the second person. That seems like the more optimal way to play and it also adresses the complaint that some have that eras fo by too fast. I felt a bit the same in the first game but that doesnt seem like the intended way to play. I would only go to the next era early if i really really eanted to get a specific culture. But doing it every time seems like a bad strategy.
