So I did get Civ IV on offer, but I haven't put more than an hour or so into yet. I need to find a guide, because there's no tutorial mode, and it's sufficiently different that one can't just cruise along.
Shame about the graphics. I did go back and play a game of Civ V to see how it held up - very well, in fact. The graphics are just so much better than Civ VI - the world doesn't look like it was made out of modelling clay. So rare for a new version of a game to be a backward step in graphic quality. Just compare, for instance, the ironclad model in both games. In Civ V it looks like a real ship; in Civ VI it's a little plastic box.
