I just played Humankind recently, and I quite like the fact that in Humankind we got to explore the world first before settling in Neolithic era. Of course technically we can still explore with our settler before settling in Civ 6, but the more time we spend finding a good settling location we kind of waste our time by not producing yield.

I found a simple but neat idea (at least I think it is) to make not immediately settling give some benefit to the players. Make Settlers have an experience point that they can accumulate, maybe in a similar way as recon unit or more complex than that. These experience points will give a buff to our city the more we get them, maybe make the city center produce more yields (either flat modifier or percentage increase) the more experience we get. Perhaps we could also make the Settlers able to level up and upgrade similar to Apostle or Rock Band, and the upgrades will affect the city center yields that they'll build.

What do you think? Feel free to share if you have suggestion to make my idea better! If anyone intersted to make this concept into a real mod, feel free to so as well!​
