I get the feeling that we'll see the next patch only when the next DLC is ready.

I just found a little Barbarian enclave on the other continent. Place had 2 barb settlers and 2 workers. Good job, AI.

Good to see that they have their DLC planned out well before their patches.

I expected as much. The patching process for BE and XCOM2 were abysmal too.

Aztecs unlocked plus a patch that fixes pretty much nothing.

There are only two ways Civ6 will go: The Civ5 route, meaning it'll be somewhat good in a dozen or so patches released over the next years or it'll go the BE route and just end up dead. This is the case for any game, really. There have been A LOT of triple-A duds these recent years and they all...

The change is great and all, but HOW ABOUT A FRIKKIN MAP MODE so we can actually tell where the district effect reaches?

I still have a bad taste in my mouth when thinking about XCOM2 patch support. 3 DLCs, 3 patches and they're done. I know they won't do this with Civ 6 but it'll be a looong time until it's (just) on the level of Civ5

Sadly, playtesters are, in general, at best average at the games they test. There is no variety in skill levels, they don't use both new and experienced Civ players.

The system needs to be fine tuned. You should receive WM penalties on a per-Civ basis, not in general. So fighting a religious war against somebody of another religion should only create minor warmonger penalties with civs of your religion, reconquest should receive no or minor penalties with...

Keep in mind the average journalist isn't very good at games to begin with. How are they supposed to judge a game like Civ when only playing on Warlord?

At least it doesn't cause eye cancer. It's not great, but I've seen worse. Look at Endless Legend: https://anykeytostart.files.wordpress.com/2015/04/endless_legend_map_zoom_in.jpg Maybe it's me but that map causes me headaches just looking at it.

As I said in another thread, many quotes feel forced or "witty for the sake of wit", not appropriate for the tech or simply just inspiring. When I research something, when my civilization makes a great advancement (Since the tech tree is pretty small anyway so each tech is important) I want to...

It's always the same with AAA games. Has been for a decade. Hey guys, remember Beyond Earth? No? I wonder why.

Out of curiosity, how did the AI work in Civ5 exactly?
