This depiction looks great for a Simon Bolivar of Nepal or Bulgaria, or any other Civ in the game, since we don't have anything close to Gran Colombia or Venezuela. He doesn't resemble the real Bolivar at all. Civ 6 one looks better. More reasons to be dissapointed with this instalment 😭😭

17.9 hours so far. I haven't finished my first game yet. Work and parenthood is not allowing me much time to play. I've been playing since Civ II. I've enjoyed every game since, while reading complaints from other players saying that they're gonna wait for the next iterarion because this one is...

I've been thinking that, at a certain point it makes sense that your Civ evolves into another depending of many factors. Let's say for example if you don't do well through the Crisis (not sure how that still works). But I would say that if you haven't met certain objectives by the end of an era...

Something I didn't get, or maybe it's still an unknown. Take Napoleon for example. Would you be able to start with him on Antiquity and it would be something like Gauls -> Franks -> French. or would you have to wait until the Modern Era to be able to pick Napoleon? Seemed to me all leaders are...

And now that we have 4... Of them all, I've only tried SS once. Maybe I'll try the shuffle one. Don't care about Apocalypse. The dramatic ages doesn't appeal to me either. I don't care much about optional content to toggle on and off to make the game harder or crazier. I'm up for permanent...

Not sure what other players normally do as I've never played multiplayer, so maybe that's #1 I avoid higher difficulties. I've won Emperor once in a tiny map and didn't enjoy the game so I'm fine in King. I'll only try Immortal and Deity to unlock the achievements if I find myself in the mood...

I feel pretty comfortable on King. I don't care for hard challenges right now. I like to play with objectives, but other than a victory type, Civ doesn't offer any, so I'm trying achievements, specially the "win with X leader" achievement. I still have 9 civs to go on this list. Oh, I don't do...

I'm from Caracas, which is not the capital in-game, but it's a capital nonetheless. Cuzco Berlin London Madrid Paris Rome Vatican City

As a Venezuelan I'm really happy and surprised they nailed it with Bolivar. When he was first announced I must confess I was afraid they will pull a Hollywood and give him a typical L.A. born Mexican or Puerto Rican accent that doesn't even know how to pronounce Spanish words properly, like...

Civ 6 Big Ben Colosseum Chichen Itza Eiffel Tower Machu Picchu Civ5 Notre Dame Sistine Chapel Brandenburg Gate Neuschwanstein I've been to Seven Sisters in Sussex, which are practically the same as the White Cliffs of Dover, except they are actually white, as the Dover ones are already covered...

Some Musica Llanera to those wondering who are the Llaneros of Venezuela and Colombia

1. Hungary (medieval standalone preferred over Austria-Hungary) 2. Goths 3. Bulgaria 4. Other: Timurid Empire 5. Hebrews 6. Kievan Rus 7. Phoenicians

I had no idea Tin was to perform on the festival. But I went on Saturday, and there was this youth choir from South Africa and they surprised me by performing the whole Lion King soundtrack followed by Baba Yetu. I just moved into the UK 4 months ago, and I feel this was somehow magical, like I...

Just received an email from Amazon!!! I logged into my Games libraries and got the full game and Aztec pack codes!!!!!! I'll start downloading right now (pre-ordered Digital)

Of all in-game tracks, my all time favorite is the EU Medieval theme from CIV III:
