60 euros for a half game doesn't make sense though. Set the price to 30 euros, and then ye, add DLCs for 5 euros. Wake up community.

So expansions are fine, but mini-expansions are not? I don't get the logic there.

How is 19 civs "a half game"? 19 civs means 19 games before you can even have a win with every kind, let alone the four different win conditions, different map types, different map layouts, etc.
If you'd say it was a half game because the AI was utterly stupid and because techs went too fast and everything, yeah, you'd have a point then, but hey, that's all getting fixed (or has gotten fixed) in free patches.
There's a chance one or two of them will be included in the first expansion (IIRC for Civ 5 Spain was part of DLC and later included in Gods and Kings?). But by that point they probably would've been like $1 in a steam sale.
As long as they don't introduce another expansion for 60 euros, it's fine. If they decide to just grow the game with DLCs, then this might be the better way. But I doubt it, they will introduce both DLCs and expansions, so they can get in total around 300 euros per person.

Yes, it will be a 2 Civ pack. Price TBD (probably $7.50 in the States - and of course "free" if you bought the Deluxe Edition).
Obviously, you are one of the reasons companies follow this approach. I don't see a common line between us. If you like it like this, it's ok. I believe that Civ3 and 4 had more options to offer, than Civ6 has. It is my opinion and I don't expect everyone to feel ok with it. I just believe that companies lose customers like this, they don't gain more.

Important difference: Civ 3 and Civ 4 already have their expansions if you look back at them right now. We'll probably get a few expansions for Civ 6 too, which are probably much more your kind of stuff. This is also a way of differentiating between customers: Some want everything, some just buy the expansions and not the DLC's, or only the DLC's they want.

That would not be cool. Avoid making warriors.

60 euros full game... you just have to wait for the full game to finish development (I got Civ V, all expansions and DLC for 50$... I bought it when CivBE came out)
It would fit with their keeping upgrades constant in promotion trees
The other option is the pathway is
Warrior>Immortal>Musket
and the immortal gets the normal Heavy Melee promotions.

Cyrus is to be expected, though I was hoping for someone never represented in the Civ franchise before like a Sassanid leader. Seems like Persia is geared towards Warmongering now. I like the music, anyone familiar with Persian music can identify the theme?
I won't be excited about Macedonia as a Civ, that takes the spot from other civs I want. Or maybe it does not? Who knows. I still think Alexander is a Greek leader.

After thinking it over a bit, I think I'm pretty disappointed with their abilities. Not that they're weak, actually I think they'll probably be top tier for deity, just that they look boring, their flavour is basically just spam settlers until you meet someone, then spam immortals and rush the poor sucker. Where's the complexity, where's the fun, and most importantly, where's the xwedodah!?
