:)īars makes several good points, I generally agree with him. In many respects it's an entirely different game, it can be quite confusing.

Spent all my free time on it since release, and I still haven't really wrapped my head around it. I hope they'll add more leaders and balance them out to a certain extent. Some other leaders are too lategame oriented without anything to make them interesting in the earlygame. Good luck having a competent human Scythia or Babylon player as a neighbour, you'll get crushed in earlygame - especially now that cities are extremely vulnerable initially. Leaders: They are too few, many old friends from previous civ games are lacking and they seem as imbalanced as ever.

Same shit as civ 5 - the AI is dumb as fuck but turbocharged in higher difficulties, so to beat it you have to abuse it instead of playing in a more balanced and flexible manner as you would against a human. This doesn't make sense from an immersion standpoint, since we all know the ancient world had armies and military structure, and it makes earlygame wars fucking tedious, just as before.ĪI: the single most glaring negative. I don't know why the ability to form armies is pushed so late into the game. This is perhaps as important as the district system although it's more like a part of it.Īrmy stacking: They've made a step in the right direction from Civ 5 but there's more to be desired. This is perhaps the single most important, noticeable and IMO good change in Civ 6.īuilder system: no more mind-numbing midgame road and improvement network management, that's great. A bit overwhelming at first, but I like it a great deal. Diplomacy has also received an upgrade.Ĭity planning: The districts system makes me stare at the screen for what seems like hours, trying to plan my tile placement from early to endgame. Religion is now a legitimate path to victory. Culture is almost like a second science tree but it retains its unique feel. Strategic depth: They've made cultural progress and religion much more potent mechanics than before, I like this.

So, these are just initial impressions:Ĭomplexity: It is more complex than civ 5, which will make it uninviting and overwhelming to players new to the series - it's still a bit too much even for me and I've played every civ game from 1 to 5. I've only played in earlygame until now since I'm a compulsive restarter when I think I've fucked up - and with all these new mechanics it's easy to fuck up.
