King of Spades
Chieftain
Hi gang!
I got burned pretty badly when Civ V launched. As an avid Civ gamer since Civ II launched, I was in hype overdrive as the launch date of Civ V got closer and closer. I must have watched the 1 hour gameplay video that was released sometime before the launch more than 50 times.
Going from the finely refined Civ IV to what seemed like an unfinished Civ V, truly let me down. It took some time (and a lot of patches) before V turned good, though it never seemed to become as good or complete as IV. To me, it seemed like each patch released fixed what was broken, instead of improving what was already good.
Because of this, I’ve yet to buy Civ VI. But before I do, I turn to this forum of fanatics. So, how are Civ VI doing? Is it a great «finished» product, or are we going down the patchwork fix-what’s-broken road?
