Got to disagree with you IH.

I am not a fan of the art work but I am sure it will grow on me. I think it is because of my tendency to play games with high realism.

I didn't like it when I first saw it but it has grown on me, especially with the fog of war stylised like a LOTR map.

Yeah, I really like the fog of war/sketched map thing. It'll be interesting to see how it updates over time, as well.

But the unit size is nuts, how they represent a units of tanks.... with one big tank.

Didn't they always used to do that? I know they definitely did in 4. It changed to multiple tanks in 5, but it's not like going back to a single tank is a total departure for the series.

ah! you see, my only exposure to the CIV series was V... oh well.

I am sure there will be a mod.

I'm so excited! :toot:

Those builder bonuses, and the Great Wall as tile improvements, look really interesting. Definitely looking forward to giving China a go.

Not really liking the look of this at all, not sure exactly what it is but all these changes seem a bit too much.

I'm sure it'll be fine though as I felt that way about Civ V before I played it.

I think everything about it looks brilliant.

If Brazil have the bonus for building cities near rainforest tiles, I assume this probably means the starting location bias from 5 is still in there.

I assume building Brazilian cities near water tiles renders them unusable and makes your entire population fall ill.

I love how colourful the game looks and learning the unique elements of each Civilization has made me even more eager to try them all :toot:

PostRe: CIVILIZATION VI by **jiggles** » Wed Aug 03, 2016 3:22 pm

New game and first few turns with producer.

I really can't get enough of that fog/map effect.

PostRe: CIVILIZATION VI by **Qikz** » Wed Aug 03, 2016 3:52 pm

It... looks... beautiful!

PostRe: CIVILIZATION VI by **That** » Wed Aug 03, 2016 3:57 pm

Looks great! I'm excited! :toot:

I really love that tech boost system too. Killing an enemy with a sling makes your research of archery go faster. Meeting another civilisation gives you both a headstart on writing. Great way to link the tech tree to your actions, instead of simply being a bunch of things you passively unlock in an order you choose.

This really is looking amazing, and its out right around the time Ill have some time off from work. Technically that time off is to bond with my new born daughter but we can bond while I play Civ. Right?

PostRe: CIVILIZATION VI by **Ironhide** » Wed Aug 03, 2016 5:02 pm

I really hope that's early build footage, there'd best be more than 8 civs to choose from at launch otherwise I won't be buying it.
