I would like to know what you're hoping for and what you'd guess the next Civ-game world be. Choose amongst Civ6, a third expansion pack for Civ5 or a spin-off game (like Alpha Centauri or Colonization).
What DID you click and what WANTED you to click in the pool?I want new a expansion pack, but I misclicked in the poll.
They'll most likely make a spin off, or a new game
What DID you click on and what WANTED you to click on?Hoping for Civ VI, and I'm guessing it will be next. Except I accidentally voted for the wrong option ...
I voted hope and guess Civ VI. The game + two expansions business model seems strong. I would suspect that only a third of people who buy the game buy the first expansion, and that only 2/3 of those who buy the first expansion buy the second. You're whittling down to your hardcore fans. You need a full-fledged new game every once in a while to create new buzz about the franchise, and again, get the big initial customer base.
Besides, the even numbered games are probably a little quicker to get to market. Civ VI will be able to use most of the same mechanics (hexes, 1upt) that CivV innovated. Naturally we all hope that they'll program the AI to fight better in those mechanics, but in any case, they're not designing them from scratch.
While the console market is a great opportunity for Civ, I daresay the tablet market is bigger.I reckon we'll get CivRev 2, designed to farm DLC sales on consoles.

If not, an Alpha Centauri sequel would be nice. It would be nice to get a fresh version to play with, as I lost my CD of the expansion for the original.
