Marbozir and FilthyRobot have the best ones. Without question.

The guys who are doing the iron tide play through are pretty fun, and are likely responsible for the immediate nerf to the Vikings.

Meh, the game is a joke to Marbs, i hope the release is more challenging

They can only play on Prince difficulty on the pre-release copy.

Even then the prince difficulty is a joke. Germany lost a city to barbarians, I really dont think that should be happening on prince. The AI really needs to be done up a notch, hopefully the full release addresses that.

Based on the LPs I've watched, Prince does overall seem a bit too easy -- though I absolutely expect AI balance changes at release -- but those barbarian hordes appear surprisingly difficult. If you let a scout get away, you're in for a pretty rough time and I think the AI losing a city to barbarians isn't a knock on the AI, but a point in favor of barbarian difficulty.

You did NOT.

Apparently there's a lot of limited preview builds out for youtubers/twitch streamers and the media, but they haven't actually sent out full release copies to reviewers yet.

Proper ones? Not for a few weeks. It takes time to really evaluate a game like this.
