I've kind of grown to like the graphics, they looked too tacky at first to me but newer screenshots with more districts make it kind of make sense

The fog of war looks great and them focusing on big personalities rather than the same leaders as every time is kinda neat

So far, curious but skeptical. Has some good ideas but so far looks kind of meh. I really need to see the mid/end game to decide.

I'll wait to see a few LPs and then decide. No pre-order.

Style looks like it was chosen with a mobile port somewhere down the line in mind. The drawn map aesthetic as the fog of war looks great, but I wonder if that wouldn't clue players in, being able to see the terrain and all.

civ 5 was a lot easier than any previous game, and really relied on the dlc to make it a worthwhile purchase. I regret buying it before all the dlc was out.

its been so long since I've really enjoyed a civ game I can't even remember what made them great anymore. 4X as a genre has aged like piss in the sun. civ is kinda an anomaly.

i'm not sad they are making a new civ and I might get it late in its lifetime when all the dlc is out and the price is knocked down to reflect a full game at a new release price. That's opposed to the half a game at full price civ 5 was.

tl;dr fuck it don't care plenty of people to get money from but not me anymore.

Hojo is a good call, since he spread zen buddhism and bushido, so he can fit a military role or a religious one.

I know nothing about Qin Shi Huang is great, first emperor of china.

Teddy Roosevelt is perfect in every way.

Cleopatra is utter GARBAGE. I'm sure they picked her as a way to cram in more female leaders, but a ptolemaic egypt leader is garbage. Might as well pick Obama for America.

Because Grace O Malley is a really insignificant figure even in Irish history, nevermind the Celts as a whole. She was known as the "Pirate Queen" and owned a large fleet, but wasnt a Queen in the sense she commanded any real forces or oversaw a country.

Theres no way they could pick someone so unknown and irrelevant as her unless they were DESPERATE to get up the pussy count.

Theres so many other better options out there.

You really think that would matter to Firaxis? They use meme queen Boudicca all the time, I wouldn't put it past them to switch it up but keep a token female. Especially when Grace has fits their "famous personality" criteria (for spurious reasons of course). It's not about merits, it's about knowing that Firaxis are fast and loose with this shit. "Celts" aren't even a civ.

Gauls were Celts. The Gauls lived in what is now known as France.

Celts doesnt just refer to the Irish, Scottish, Welsh or even English. The real Celts were on the mainland and pushed to the edges of Europe by the Romans.

We dont even know if we can call the Irish, Scottish and Welsh real Celts at this stage, but they seemed to run off with the idea because it suited nationalistic causes to break from England. Now its being driven further with appeal to tourism.

The real Celts were from the mainland.

Nigga. Its beyond that I like having roads to every side of my boarders so I can defend from barbarians and invaders.

Let me build my roads so I can fucking defend myself without having to build an army big enough to invade someone else. Sometimes I want to play nerdy korea and NOT build doomsheets.

i don't like civilization that much because after the first 30 minutes of awesome early game everything becomes a slow mess of slowly moving several units taking city after city without anything really interesting happening, aside from a not-so strategical war that last 1 hour.

i've seen mp gameplays where people litterally play alone building stuff for 2 hours then just smash units against each other.For me the game ends after settling the last city.

Don't talk shit, Celtic civ had a visibly Gaulish component in III and IV. Brennus was their leader and their UU was the Gallic swordsman. Their cities names were largely continental in those games as well.

The same can be said of nearly all video games really. Second part is highly subjective but the Civ series is highly renown for a variety of reasons and is "actually good".

THATS IT. THATS ALL I WANT. To efficiently move around in my own god damn nation. With roads getting more and more fucked you just have to station units out there instead of keeping them close. At that point you have so many whats the fucking point of playing science? Go crush the niggers that are being dicks to you.

Imagine a custom civ generator shipping with the base game. You could either choose any of the leader models, or insert a static image. Customize border colors, etc etc. Is this a good idea, or something better off as a mod? I thought it was pretty clever and would have liked it in civ v.

It means they are an ass hole that abuse mechanics to do things not intended but the creators of the game. Those guys that say "There is no rule against it! Its in the game so its fair!"

Venice is a legit choice, not just a city state who got in just for being a city state. Part of their reason for adding them was the idea of Dandolo being villainous, which actually works out pretty well for a leader personality.

I like surprises. When we got the first teaser that kinda confirmed Gandhi but nothing else, I was worried about seeing the exact same crew all over again. Particularly Hojo feels like a breath of fresh air.

They also said that they'll be revealing the most obvious civilizations first, so I'm looking forward to seeing what they have in store later. For some reason I always liked playing with more obscure civs.

Nig, there's a ridiculous amount of American branding, movies, music, literature and art and it's all sent across the world in big boxes of FREEDUMS. American culture is literally everywhere. You could go to the farthest reaches of ass africa and people would likely know about Michael Jackson's music, and might be wearing a hand-me-down Micky Mouse t-shirt. If anything, America did win a cultural victory irl. Which is a little sad since they're only ~250 years old, granted a lot of their stuff was pulled from other cultures like Rome did.

Well, if more Civs follow the pattern of America, Spain should have a Unique Ability, a Unique Unit, and a Unique Building in addition to their Leader's Unique Ability, Unique Unit, and Unique Improvement (like Teddy's stronger National Parks, on this one).

That could give Spain the chance to have conquistadores AND some kind of galleon to represent the Spanish Armada.

>>342248435
The way I see it, it's at least more modder friendly if they have their Leader bonuses separated from Civ bonuses. Even having the framework is good, whether they have official Leader DLC or not.

Assuming the framework IS in place, though, I'd at least love it if they put in an Advanced Set-Up option that lets you mix and match Leaders to Civs in the base game.

>Princess Olga was the wife of Igor of Kiev, who was killed by the Drevlians. At the time of her husband's death, their son Svyatoslav was three years old, making Olga the official ruler of Kievan Rus until he reached adulthood. The Drevlians wanted Olga to marry their Prince Mal, making him the ruler of Kievan Rus, but Olga was determined to remain in power and preserve it for her son.
>The Drevlians sent twenty of their best men to persuade Olga to marry their Prince Mal and give up her rule of Kievan Rus. She had them buried alive. Then she sent word to Prince Mal that she accepted the proposal, but required their most distinguished men to accompany her on the journey in order for her people to accept the offer of marriage. The Drevlians sent their best men who governed their land. Upon their arrival, she offered them a warm welcome and an invitation to clean up after their long journey in a bathhouse. After they entered, she locked the doors and set fire to the building, burning them alive.
>With the best and wisest men out of the way, she planned to destroy the remaining Drevlians. She invited them to a funeral feast so she could mourn over her husband's grave, where her servants waited on them. After the Drevlians were drunk, Olga's soldiers killed over 5,000 of them. She returned to Kiev and prepared an army to attack the survivors. The Drevlians begged for mercy and offered to pay for their freedom with honey and furs. She asked for three pigeons and three sparrows from each house, since she did not want to burden the villagers any further after the siege. They were happy to comply with such a reasonable request.

Okay, that's pretty fucking badass.

>We dont even know if we can call the Irish, Scottish and Welsh real Celts at this stage
wut. We're pretty sure that Britain and Ireland spoke Celtic languages at that stage, long enough to have notable innovations separated from the continent and indeed from between the islands themselves. Insular Celts aren't "real" Celts insofar as they are not Gauls, which is who the description was originally intended for, the word Celt has simply taken on a different meaning in this modern context.

Modern linguists later realized the languages were related, and in light of obvious religious/mythological similarties to the classical Celts started using the term Celt to refer to a broader class of people than classical writers did. Nationalists didn't run off with the idea, that doesn't really make sense. The basis for it was that they were separate cultures being subjected to anglo influence, which is pretty much fact. The fact these cultures are classified as "Celtic" is incidental.

Don't really like the new artstyle. Also I was kind of burned with XCOM 2 so if I do end up getting the game it won't be for a while.

Neither Civ nor grand strategy games (with the latter probably because I don't really know how to play despite playing a few hours of a few) really satisfy what I want in a game similar to these though and most other 4x games are sci-fi or fantasy.

Why did they turn the Japanese dude into an Aryan heartthrob and Cleopatra into a fucking homo floresiensis?

American culture has become so ingrained and embedded into the entire world that people don't even think of it as distinctly American anymore. That's the true sign of your culture's significance, when people don't even second-guess it and you have apes on tumblr claiming they invented spicy food, hip-hop, and gang violence.

>I'm sure they picked her as a way to cram in more female leaders

Come on, we just had Civ 5 with a male leader for Egypt, which is pretty unusual considering that ancient Egypt has quite a few famous female leaders.

Well, with Hojo Tokimune in, there's a chance they could do Kublai Khan, since Tokimune was the one who repelled Kublai's offer to become a vassal.

i like districts, but they should be bigger to make the citys look bigger. at the moment they look so small and spacey compared to the massive cramped designed of the city tile itself

i really liked hamlets in civ 4 because the citys looked like citys

I wish they would start making DLCs for Stellaris already.
It's a great base but there's nothing to do.

Didn't you watch the stream? We need female leader so they kick ass!

Did the pinkhead nigress in the stream even play a single game of Civ 5?

I honestly feel sad for you and a bunch of other /v/irgins that got a bit too invested in the invisible moral crusade against sjws. By that I mean it honestly makes me sad to think of you as a human being.

It's not that much of an anti-SJW crusade as a historical accuracy crusade.

The country had a great female leader, like Catherine or Victoria? Fine by me. Putting in Cleopatra, who isn't even an Egyptian and basically sucked western cock? No.

>Everything has a time and a place.

That made me think of Pokemon for no reason.

Either way, I'd prefer them sticking to historical accuracy instead of getting female leaders for the sake of female leaders.

>>342274118
on some level it has to be accepted that civ just uses pop culture history and is for casuals
