Where were you when Civ became cartoony bullshit
Absolutely disgusting.
Gonna stick with Civ5, I think.
>>343070105
Playing the best Civilization of course
As long as the mechanics are solid, I don't give a shit.
>>343070105
Who gives a shit about how it LOOKS. Its a fucking strategy game, as long as it is enjoyable to play then its fine.
Those eyes are terrifying.
I dig the overall aesthetic though. The main game map is a lot cleaner, even if the characters are a bit too cartoony.
I didn't know Gearbox and Bioware teamed up for Civ6.
>>343070105
I don't mind the new style of the map. But the leaders look like absolute shit.
>>343070105
>we want the dreamworks audience
why does every artstyle eventually turn into this shit?
>>343070105
>Ingerlund
Where are the Vikings?
>>343070105
Lucky for me, I much prefer cartoony art styles.
Why do underage faggots think realistic graphics are better?
>>343071104
WUZ
>>343070105
At least its a younger Victoria and not the old widow hag.
Civ 5's leaders looked fine.
What's up with this mobile game inspired bullshit?
>>343070105
>those hands
As a distant relative of Queen Victoria: what the fuck is this.
What video is this from?
>>343072315
youtube
>>343070105
>Civ became cartoony bullshit
That happened during Civ 4.
>>343072053
>Egypt isn't a nigger
YES
>>343071789
HOL UP HOL UP
>>343070105
Civ has always been cartoony.
>>343070105
>You will never get to play Queen Elizabeth II in a Civ game
>>343072384
I don't think you'll find anyone arguing Cleopatra was black.
>>343072639
you are underestimating SJWs anon
>>343072689
Not even SJWs claim most egyptians were black.
It's usually just black nationalist eejits.
>>343072357
What video on youtube is this from?
>>343072778
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FkIT6iMeYjE&feature=youtu.be
>they actually got Victoria
based
>>343070105
I have nothing against cartoony artstyles especially when it comes to political characters where caricatures are good tool but that just looks like complete shit and nothing like Queen Victoria
>>343072639
where the hell have you been
thats all I've heard about her for 3 years since sjw peaked
>>343072495
U BE SAYING
>>343072639
>>343072731
You're kidding right? There's plenty of blacks commenting on video clips from Rome, outraged that Cleopatra isn't black.
>>343072384
She just looks chinese instead
>>343072985
those aren't SJWs, those are black nationalists.
>>343072980
AYO HOL UP
>>343071104
ARE THE CRYSTAL GEMS
>>343072849
Who else could it be?
highly stylised
>>343073117
Why would nationalists care about the ethnicity of people who lived thousands of years ago from a country which, even if they were black, they have no cultural relation to?
>>343073420
Because WE
>>343070105
>england
>not our guy nigel
>>343073516
ARE THE CRYSTAL GEMS
WE'LL ALWAYS SAVE THE DAY
>>343073420
because they're eejits who like to revise things for dumb reasons
Should I get Civ 3 or 4? beginner here
>>343070105
>Where were you when Civ became cartoony bullshit
I remember people saying that CIV IV was looking like a cartoony piece of shit, back in 2005 4chan.
>>343073673
You could have stopped him.
>>343073753
5 desu
>>343073791
yep, in fact civ3 looked pretty goofy too, though it was quite amusing seeing modern leaders were ouga booga rags and vice versa
what were civ1 and 2 like? civ5 isnt the only title with nice leader portraits, right?
>>343073753
5 with BNW is the best Civ style game ever made.
4 is fine too if you want to be contrarian
>>343072590
You will when she dies most likely
>>343072053
>>343072384
>>343073014
Lel, how do you fuck, cleopatra someone well known for her pronounced nose up so much she looks chinese
>>343073927
Why would anyone want to?
>>343070105
Holy shit that's bad.
>>343074328
That could take forever.
>>343070105
looks like shit
what is it with video games and trying to look as childish as possible ?
kids probably aren't interested in civ and civ players probably aren't interested in a cartoony shit
< it reminds me of this failure
>>343074791
it looks fine, you're just complaining about the graphics because there's nothing else to complain about you cynical cunt
>>343071104
>>343071789
You do realize Mansa Musa was an actual person, he really was black, and yes, he was a goddamn king, right?
>>343072053
Looks like a mobile game.
>>343072841
Why call it England and not Great Britain if they're going with Victoria?
>>343072053
>Triforce
>>343072053
Also, why are the borders so fucking blocky? They had it smoothy perfect in Civ V
>>343075016
Because last week Great Britain was renamed to England
>>343074791
It's because map awareness is going to be even more important than it was in past civs, since districts and wonders all take up their own tiles. A cartoony artstyle makes it easier to process all that visual information.
>>343075016
It's possible that there will be multiple leaders per civ again.
WHY ARE THE BACKGROUNDS SO FUCKING DRAB
>>343075359
Because they want to have multiple leaders for the same civ, like in Civ 4. The backgrounds in Civ 5 were extremely time-consuming and pretty much forced them to only have one leader per civ.
I miss the backgrounds too, but if I have to choose between something nice but cosmetic and something that affects gameplay, I'm going with the latter.
>>343074521
You'll know in 2years young lad.
>>343075016
So you can have a separate Scotland and Ireland.
>>343074927
Do you realize that Civ5 complete is better than Civ4 complete?
>>343075336
that doesn't mean they have to make the characters all silly and comical
i mean look at these people >>343072053
they all look like they're from a disney movie
>>343075695
>global happiness
>one traffic jam per tile
>severely imbalanced and inflexible social policies
>severely imbalanced leader bonuses
>culture victory is an art gallery management mini-game
>>343075856
They've done it with every game so far, why would this one be any different?
>>343070105
Looks like they went back to the Civ Rev style
>>343075856
Cartoony leaders have pretty much always been part of the Civilization series. The leaders in 6 are probably less cartoony than the ones in 3 and 4.
5 was very much the exception to the rule, and even then there was a certain degree of stylization.
>>343072590
>the queen who lost the empire
>>343075856
I don't care about the leaders but the rest of the game looks straight out of Clash of Kings ro something
Besides, that policy screen pretty much convinced me that they're designing game with mobile market on mind
>>343072841
All the leader animations in this game look really uncanny-valley
Those borders need some god damn anti-aliasing
>>343070105
looks so awesome, i'm glad there is one thing to come out of E3 i can be excited for. i really like the visual style and ye olde map fog of war.
>>343075561
>The backgrounds in Civ 5 were extremely time-consuming
firaxis is a huge company with plenty of shekels to spare, civ5 is to this day one of the most played games on steam, fucking hell why would they cheap out like this
leaders in 5 looked great, their background looked great, this looks like shit, the features sound interesting and promising and I will still play it like the good goy I am, but this shit fucking irritates me
>>343072841
Hol up, tourism is still in the game?
>>343077280
Yes, which I'm not pleased about. I never really liked it as a mechanic
>>343077280
They stated that most things that was in Civ 5 after it's dlcs will be in Civ VI vanilla.
>>343073791
It's funny, Civ 5 probably has the most realistic looking leaders in the series. (Although that's not saying much.)
Anyone complaining about anything in civ looking like "cartoony bullshit" hasn't played these games enough.
>>343077507
Based as fuck.
>>343077407
Sure it could use some tweaks, but it's far better than nothing.
>>343075654
Which we'll never get because Civ devs only care about Celts that got fucked by Romans.
>>343076721
No they don't, they're actually really well animated.
>>343077628
I suppose you could accuse me of nitpicking, but there is a good way of doing a cartoony style and a bad way of doing it. There's something kinda weird about the style in this game compared to the previous ones, although they were also cartoony
>>343070105
What the fuck is this? I thought it couldnt possibly get worse after the Cleopatra reveal but i guess i was naive. Civ 5 it is for me then
>>343077960
That's true I suppose. I do wish the in-game graphics we've seen so far had a little bit more contrast to them. Everything looks kinda flat as it is, even if it isn't as bad in motion as the original screenshots made it out to be.
>>343077960
I agree with this anon, art design in this game looks ugly. And the UI is fucking shit
Though I'll have to say, the mechanics so far looks really nice and the land looks gorgeous when zoomed out (the problems begin when you zoom in). Except for the fucking borders
>Culture and expansion via warefare play style
Why the fuck did they think splitting the play style up was a good thing?
>Because it's more flexible
No, the game is built up on small advantages that snow ball leads, if you're directing your limited unique buildings, abilities and units to different strengths that do not directly govern one another then you're making a crippled jack of all trade master of none type play style that isn't fun to play, isn't a strong pick compared to some of the other civs like China thus far.
>>343070105
revolution was cartoony and fun for a console game
victoria may be flat but she isn't all bad
shame about the flat chest
>>343070105
It's like Firaxis looked at popular modern 3DCG films and thought, yeah we can do this and then slapped a shader that makes them look like theyre made of plastic on their malformed faces
>>343079537
Flat is justice.
>>343070105
>its a woman again
where are my kings or generals?
>>343074927
You do realize it's just a meme m8?
>>343079657
nah it´s more like western game devs no try to push ugly looking characters. seems like all the lefties have finally infiltrated that area as well and know push their bullshit about "unrealistic standards"
Civ was ever not cartoony bullshit?
>>343077507
Except for all the civilizations of course. That gets a full reset.
>>343080023
Yes, but have you consideredfuck off faggot
I want to bully Egypt
>>343080023
i think it's more like video game writers/designers/artists are either women or have gfs who look like this
>>343079657 >>343070105 >>343080648
ie : flat little nu-females womanlets with a big head, a small body and a loud mouth
>>343070105
The style looks as bad as Civilization Revolution, which is literally the worst Civ game. I'm surprised this one isn't going to consoles too.
>>343080967
>womanlets
Women are already short as hell. Any of them shorter than the norm could just be called midgets.
>flat
Did you even look at Cleopatra?
>small body
Thickfags out.
>loud mouth
How much do they talk compared to other civ leaders?
>>343080648
Sweet merciful Christ, how could Civ fall so low that it parades a brown-skinned goblin as Cleopatra?
>>343080648
Mmm saggy tits. My favourite
>>343080648
I'd love to release my snake and bite down on those tits.
