I mean I'm not going to engage with you about, you know, facts about the game, since you don't seem to know those very well, but I would say given the great deal of negativity surrounding this game that you are truly ignorant if you think saying "we all like" this game is a valid or justifiable generalization. A lot of Civ people, especially old-timers like myself, aren't the biggest fans of this game. And really I'm saying I just dislike one aspect of it - I'm not saying the game is complete trash.
I know I've said this before, but this gamer attitude about criticism of a game is holding this entire genre back. In every other genre, whether it be film, or literature, people who enjoy the thing they are engaging with also enjoy criticizing that thing. It is a truly adolescent type of fixation that not only doesn't appreciate this aspect of art, but outright rejects it like you are trying to do here.
Frankly, you've had a negative, pretentious, and kind of just mean attitude from the start. I'm tired of it, so this will be my last post to you.
1. I have no problem with criticizing a game, a movie, or anything else. I do it all the time. I'm sure that I've done it on this forum more than once. There are plenty of things to criticize about Civ VI. But criticizing something isn't the same as, "This art sucks, this game is for kids." That's useless criticism that does absolutely nothing to advance the game, genre, or industry. When it comes to aesthetics, you can't please everyone. The vast majority of players are OK with or even like the current aesthetics. So, deal with it. If you have actual criticisms about how the game actually plays, then that's a different situation. But so far, you've just been complaining about the cartoons and maple syrup and then reducing the entire game to "childish" and "puerile". It's a waste of time.
2. Of course, not everyone likes this game. Are you going to read every word for its literal meaning, or are you going to be reasonable? Most of the people posting in the Civ VI forum actually, you know, like Civ VI. We don't like everything about it, but we do like the game. That's why we're here. And since this game has sold far more copies than any previous game, I guess we're not alone.
3. No, I haven't memorized every single delegation offering in the game. Who does that? I just click them away and get back to playing. I'm sure that they were all fun the first time, but that was forever ago in the case of Laurier. But hey, if you want to use this is proof that I don't know anything about the game, then you do you. Have fun.
This nonsense is all off topic, now. I'm done with it.
