I'm Fairly Certain One of Civ 7's Gathering Storm sized DLC that Shakes up the Game Will be Focused on Adding a Final Age

But either way, I would prefer the devs exhaust all of their design space in the three eras we have. No medieval or future age is worth losing out on potential civs like Muisca, Bulgaria, or Morocco, or whatever fits into the current grand design.

Exactly. It just makes more sense to fill out the eras we do have now before we start looking to the future, a la Beyond Earth. A wider base of civs in the first three eras will help civ switching feel more natural, then and only then should Firaxis worry about a fourth era.

The game is long enough already.

The game is long enough already.

I think that’s a strange take for a game with a “one more turn” mythos, but what do you mean by that?
