The endgame tedium that's been in Civ since the beginning was always a UI issue. They need to introduce more ways to automate small decisions, have an ai governor take over cities that aren't important. The introduction of 1UPT made it much worse.

Thanks!

Thanks for this!

Bit of a long shot; wondering if anyone knows how to change the names of the ideologies from Democracy, Autocracy, Order to Capitalism, Fascism, Communism. It's only a text change for flavor. Thanks!

Pros Unit commanders remove a lot of the clicks from managing tons of units Removal of workers removes tons of unnecessary clicks but keeps strategic depth Independent people seem like a good addition City management seems fun and intuitive I appreciate the overall effort to remove the...

Hope they fill out the borders on that mini-map

A simple Hall of Fame and map replays is all I need after a game. Hope you can turn this feature off.

Is there a special way of doing that besides just installing the exe file?

Is there a way to get Vox Populi games into the hall of fame?

I really hope there's an option to turn the narrative events off. They're the opposite of fun.

The tedious late game, especially in Civ6 after turn ~100 was always a UI issue. There was never a way to automate things you didn't care about, or select multiple units and give orders all at once. I'm looking forward to the general unit mechanic. It's the feature I'm looking forward to the most.

Civ switching seems gimmicky to me. I hope they handle it well, but I just don't see the reasoning behind it. It's odd to have the Romans as your neighbor in the beginning and then have them switch over to the HRE for the middle age only to switch over to French in the third age. I don't...

I'm worried about a lot of these new mechanics. The event system and the scripted crises at the end of each age seem to be ways to force guardrails on the player. I'm not a fan. Let the player direct the gameplay. It seems like too much handholding. I prefer to play the game instead of the game...

None of the streamers Firaxis sent to their headquarters to play for three hours seemed excited about it. They almost seem defensive.
