A VR specialist in the film industry used Photoshop and busts of Roman emperors to create photorealistic portraits of them; perhaps Firaxis could look at these as inspiration for forthcoming Roman leaders, whether in Civ VI DLC or Civ VII? (Notably, see the differences in the portrayal of Trajan...

Polygon released a feature article today titled "The 70 best video game characters of the decade". Guess who made the list, alongside such greats as Jane Shepard from Mass Effect, Nathan Drake from Uncharted, Tracer from Overwatch and the Traveler from Journey? Article here...

This thread collates scholarly history discussion of how the Civ VI leaders and/or civs are portrayed vis-a-vis history (with some fun historical facts thrown in), and with scholarly links, relevant YouTube links for music, etc. Hyperlinks lead to posts in this thread analyzing the historicity...

In light of several elimination games we have had in this forum involving world wonders, I figured we could as a community collect some concrete ideas (including numbers) for world wonders we might want to add in the game (not natural wonders; though someone could make a separate thread for...

Kitsune Hawk, a YouTuber, interviewed Geoff Knorr, and they spoke about Civ V, VI, Beyond Earth music, and other incidentals (how Geoff got involved with Civilization, etc). The full interview is 51 minutes and 29 seconds and includes music from the Civilization series (including my personal...

Great Work created! Door Monster on YouTube has plenty on Civ VI (and V as well, including a hilarious roundtable of world leaders discussing how to deal with Gandhi's nuclear power). Here's their most recent video on "Breaking News" (you know, the little notifications on the right of the...

This thread was created by moving a number of related posts from this thread to a new thread in the Ideas & Suggestions forum. Good work! Hadrian is an interesting leader. I did expect the model to have curlier hair per his bust. As a historical side I think it's worth noting that both...

Please feel free to post your own ideas! We have seen that some civs in Civ V were inspired by civs suggested in the forums (I think in the case of the Polynesians, several ideas which ended up in the game originated in the Civ V 2K forums, for example, if memory serves). Whether they influence...

Ladies and gents, after a rousing and culturally enlightening language-sharing exercise translating the leader lines of Civ V I have returned to begin the process for Civ VI. Contributions are welcome! All leader lines may be heard here, though the in-game lines can only be found in the XML...

What the title says. I'm trying to get saves for each AI's Peace and Declare War lines, so that I can have a YouTube compilation made (or maybe I will pass them off to someone else so he can make that video). Can you act in the game in such a way that Pocatello or Enrico Dandolo declares war on...

What the title says. I find that taking screenshots of leaderscreens doesn't cause the crash, but taking screenshots of City Management, or even the Tourism/Culture screen, do cause the crash. The crash isn't instant--usually what happens after I press F12 (take screenshot) is that the mouse...

Marble increases wonder production in the city that has it by 15% for the Ancient/Classical eras. As far as I know, this is the only luxury resource with a "special bonus" beyond the tile +1 and the unlocking certain buildings (Stone Works/Mint/etc). Why not have bonuses for all the other...

How does one get this achievement without causing the empire to revolt? You would need to found over 25 cities to get to it as the Celts, which makes me think maybe playing as Attila against Boudica only would be a faster way to get it. Thoughts?

Having seen many of the leader intros from DLC, Gods and Kings, and more recently, Casimir of Poland in Brave New World, why do the leader screens not talk about the nation, and instead focus entirely on the leader? I liked hearing about the nations themselves. :(

Anyone tried this on Emperor, Immortal or Diety post-patch? I can never kill off the civs fast enough. :(

I've gotten slightly better at Civ IV, but not much in the past 3 years we played. Often I find myself locked by enemy AI expanding on my borders. In a recent game I popped lots of settlers and archers (with walls) to protect an aggressive expansionist push. But then the AI declare war on me. I...

Suppose I want to keep the Peace/War themes in the game, but also add tracks to the regional areas. For example, if I play as America/Aztecs/Mayans/Inca in Civ V, and want to hear some Civilization Colonization music, how would I go about making it play in the game without me having to window...

Ok, so several things. Sweden is one of the amalgamation civs, it seems, by which I mean the leader, UA and UUs are generally from different time periods (except the Caroleans). Has anyone found the Nobel Prize UA to be useful, and where is it indicated in city screens? I don't see why I would...

As everyone knows, naval military units can now stack with embarked land units at sea. But you know what else I noticed? Ranged units now occasionally stack with melee units! It might have been a bug though, as I haven't been able to replicate it...a melee warrior was able to stack with a...

The music in Gods and Kings is divine, as expected. Below you'll find links to some of the in-game songs and the original songs they are based on. I'd encourage you all to share your thoughts on the music in this thread! Feel free to provide more info/insight about the songs when you come across...
