I think it's time we apologize to Civ 6.We were too harsh on this game.
>>736158753civ6 is better than civ5civ5 has the much better soundtrack and visual style tho

>>736158890>>736158753Oh god the music the art style is so boring the it puts me to sleep sometimes I dont know why but it does
>districts
>>736158890The art style is debatable, although a cartoony art style like Civ 6 is more likely to age wellCiv 4 leaders were also kind of cartoony and it aged well tooThe same cannot be said about 5, the leaders there look too low-detail by today's standards, because of that semi-realistic approachAs for soundtrack I prefer 6 because of how each Civ has its own track that evolves trough erasAlso Civ 6's theme is a whole load better and grandiose than 5's, which was putting me to sleep after a whilehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WQYN2P3E06sBut it's not surprising, considering it was made by Christopher Tin who also made Baba Yetu in 4, dude just knows how to tell a story about humankind through music.

>>7361587536 is shit.
>>736159246Funniest mechanic they ever included in those games.If you don't like it, that makes you low-IQ btw
>>736159273>Civ 6's theme is a whole load better and grandiose than 5's,It's good but brave new world theme was better to meAnd overall the soundtrack in civ5 is so much nicer. Not just the leader themes but everything:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QBYHM0QRoMobeautiful.
>>7361593175babs just want a game that plays itself with barely any strategyThey'll keep using the same solved, 100% win "strategy" everytime because the game is fundamentally shallow and underdesigned.So when Civ 6 comes out and asks its players to think about cities development for instance, naturally they just threw a tamper tantrum
>>736159645>it's good but brave new world theme was better to methat theme is just sleep inducing, that anon is right
>>736159645>defending 5's theme over 6'swhat the fuck, no fucking way, you are a real person? You aren't trolling?https://youtu.be/5HZQvYj7zNIYou prefer this shit to Dream of Flight? No, fuck off. You aren't serious.
>>736159273>>736159645>>736159753https://youtu.be/jOF9v-W6kdc?si=dzU6OyQmWWKSkzZhthey brough christopher tin back again for 7 and its another great theme, regardless of what you think about the game itselfpersonally i like the game a lot but i see why others dont
only low iqs like districtsthe more complicated something is the more an idiot will admire it
>>736159908His weakest main theme, but better than 5's, it feels like he's trying with this one, rather than just going for it
>>736159919>the more complicated something is the more an idiot will admire itOh the cope!
>>736159974i didnt like it at first but it really grew on me. baba yet is still the goat but id probably put live gloriously equal to dream of flight now
>>736160059
>>736158753I'm still amazed at how they managed to completely kill the fucking IP forever with that Humankind bad ripoff trash heapLiterally one of the biggest flop I have seen from an iconic franchise in a decade
>>736159273>although a cartoony art style like Civ 6 is more likely to age wellIt looked like shit on release and it looks like shit now>The same cannot be said about 5It looked fine on release and it looks fine now
>>736160059Explain Nu Final Fantasy, Kingdom hearts, Death Stranding and modern anime then?
>>736159645Only correct post in a sea of 6 newfags defending their slop
>>736160229theyll be fine, every civ launch is met with "this is shit im sticking to [previous game]". not usually this bad, but its typical for a new game to be outperformed by its predecessors out the gate. itll get some updates and sooner or later everyone will decide that actually 7 is the definitive civ game. and then 8 itll come out and everyone will decry it as shit for not being like 7.theres a big update coming in the next month or two i think that lets you play as one civ the whole way through which will propbably be popular with people
>>736160236It flopped so bad they're turning it into an actual Civ game where you are not forced to play Harriet Tubman, Female Caliph of the Abbasid EmpireBut sadly the damage is already done, the game will always be rotten at its core because of this stupid ass decision to rip off the game that failed doing the same thing with the swapping civ shit

>>736160414>every civ launch is met with "this is shit im sticking to [previous game]"No, it was always>This is unfinished, I'm going back until they release the expansionsNow it's>This is shit, I'm not going back until they remake the game from scratch
>>736158753Lol, even jewtubers like potatomfaggot whose livelihood depende on Civ being a succesful game, absolutely hate Cvi 7 and dropped it.At this point it seems Civ as a franchise will cease to exist. But indie devs will pick up the pieces and give us true innovation. Like that Uncivilised game that has fully realistic diplomacy using natural language and LLMs.
>>736158753Its been 10 years?
>>736160414Except Civ 5 and 6 weren't heavily flawed at launchThey only suffered from being barebones, which expansions fixedThis was the contract.They now released an actual dogshit base game, meaning they will have to waste time and money unfucking all the shit they did first, before even considering expanding the game with DLCs
>>736160476meant for >>736160229
civ 7 is the best civ game and its not even fucking close. bunch of secondaries itt who havent played a civ game since 4 and just parrot talking points from reddit
>>736160739sunk cost fallacy
>>736161535>its unfathomable to /v/ that people just enjoy playing videogames
>Civ 6>Start game>Find out after 5 turns that Rome is my direct neighbor
>>736158753Why the fuck do people like Civ games so muchThose games are not even real strategyFucking casual scum
>>736159753>You prefer this shit to Dream of Flight? No, fuck off. You aren't serious.Yes. Music isn't about being bombastic, but soothing
AI is a bit too retarded on Civ 6 and the terrain looks like fucking shitI like the art otherwise and a lot of the gameplay aspects are an improvementMONAY
>>736158753V > IV > > > powergap > VI > dogshit > VII
Downloaded 6 after a year today to play a few games. It's sooooo slow. Production and building improvements takes forever and it's not fun. V is better, but seriously play the Civ 4 mod History Rewritten and you'll never want to play either again. That shit is like crack.
>>736158753They completely sapped away the very essence of Civ games with 7.Civ games are supposed to be anachronistic, ahistorical sandboxes where you develop an empire from cavemen to spaceships in any way you see fit, at least up until normal difficulties.The whole premise of those games is to have, for instance, samurais fighting roman legions in a rainforestOr having the zulus developing into a modern superpower and nuking londonNow you can't really do that freely because you can only play a handful of civs per eraThis civ swapping shit also means there is little to no snowballing (literally half the fun of these games even if it can be unfair or broken), as each of the three eras have you starting in a boring status quoPlus the swapping doesn't follow any kind of historical logic, aside from a few exceptionsShould have called this game "Leaders" instead of "Civilization"
>>736162850II>III>IV>V>I>VI>VII
There's simply no point in purchasing a Civ game until the 2 expansions that fix the game release and you can get the complete experience for a significant discount.
VI > V
>>736159246hello smoothbrain
>>736162850>>736162962>>736163031VI VIIget it like six seven
>>736163123
>>736162870>building improvements takes forever It doesn't, it takes one turn, and you shouldn't improve every fucking tile, just focus on the best ones you can work with the current citizen number you have
>>736159317>picAnd this is why you hear so much complaining about Civ 6 mechanicsCiv 5 is so fucking barebones, it was the first Civ game of a whole load of mouthbreathers in resultAnyone that played a Civ game before 5 realizes there is nothing wrong with 6, it took 5's formula and iterated on it
>>736159317>>736163674the city planning aspect adds a ton of depth and skill expression if youre primarily interested in the strategy of the game over the immersion/roleplay aspectso does civ switching in 7
>>736161830Name some real strategy
>>736164885Europa Universalis
>>736165027>paraslop map painterkek, good joke anon
>>736164074>over the immersion/roleplay aspectThe whole Timeline and Historic Moment mechanics have literally more immersion/roleplay to them than anything in 5Also the fact that natural landmarks in 6 like rivers, lakes, deserts, continents and such get attributed a name that's displayed on the mapOr even the random natural disasters
TOTAL cultural sweep
