I never got to play Hawaii because of the difficult unlock requirement so I'm a bit bummed. On one level I understand the rebalancing but I'm generally not so keen on nerfing as the main approach (but I don't play multiplayer). This time, like the last time, I'm a bit disappointed to not see a...

Bummer, I had hoped there would be a technical section for PC. My game have been much more stable playing in Vulcan rather than DX12, but it did look nicer with DX12.

I'm actually fond of Russia, but I have just played a few games of Sovereign and mostly Viceroy. I like their UI and funneling so much food from towns to cities. But as to the thread topic, yeah maybe a bit weak in comparison with the others.

I like the UIs actually, although with the Great Wall as a particular exception. I like that you can have unique improvements in all settlements in contrast to the unique quarters. Maybe equally much to make civ heritage noticeable across all settlements, not just because of their yields.

Oh my, there was a way to tell but hidden away like that... thanks! :crazyeye:

I'd like to know how many turns I've been in my celebration and when it ends.

I've yet to play Hatshepsut, but she looks underwhelming to me. 1 culture per imported resource, compared to so many other bonuses being 1x per age? In the late game, I'm usually limited by the number of resource slots in my settlements, that simply 1 culture in the Modern age seems very weak...

I've played so much these last few days, but unfortunately I've started to encounter crashes. I've made a report to Firaxis about my latest one, happening on a Age transition. Unfortunately it's game breaking at the moment, since the error replicates every time. The other day I had trouble...

My city flipped to my only friend and ally through the antiquity and exploration age, so I "couldn't" even do that :lol:

Played through the Antiquity and Exploration age yesterday, some impressions: - Had by biggest and best city (not my capital) rebel during the Antiquity age crisis. I reloaded an earlier autosave but couldn't find any way to prevent it happening. Maybe I could have researched a tech with more...

I had time to play 40 something turns this morning before going to work and now I'm just counting down the minutes until I can go home lol. My civilization didn't really have time to become an empire, 3 settlements (Ibn-Battuta with Aksum).

Congratulations! :)

Although governors are gone, the Army commander has that light blue promotion tree that gives bonuses to a settlement it is in. I think I'm okay with that, but I haven't seen any streamer pick promotions in that tree.

I can't decide and I think I'll go with my feeling on release. The strongest contender is: Ashoka World Renouncer Maurya - Chola - Mughals (unless i really dislike their design) But I might try to go with: Rome - Normans - Mexico with Lafayette, putting in as many traditions as possible or...

Tbh I think Germany in civ6 was first and foremost industrious and could translate that into nearly everything. And civ 5 Germany eventually was a production civ too (though the militaristic impression was still there with Barbarossa/uboat and Bismarck/panzer respectively, but all civs had a...
