That must surely weigh on FXS’s decision to have a 3xp or not. Still, interesting the gaming press has basically bought into a Third Expansion happening.
There’s discussion and prediction of a Third Expansion, although based on no more that fan posts. Regardless of which is actually “better”, Civ V is much cheaper to buy complete than Civ VI and so perhaps there’s a legitimate discussion about whether Civ VI’s improvements aren’t worth the additional cost. Has wonder though whether price has increasingly become the nub of the difference between Civ V and Civ VI. I hear this criticism a lot, but to me the overall cost is fine once you aggregate that cost over hours played. There are some criticisms of how much Civ VI costs with all the expansions. I don’t really see that as a bad thing either. I think that’s basically right - Civ VI is basically all of Civ V’s mechanics (except Social Policies and Ideologies) and a few mechanics from earlier games, but just more fleshed out and polished. Article discusses how Civ VI wasn’t such a big change in the franchise compared to Civ V, and that Civ VI is really just a iteration or evolution of Civ V. While I think Civ VI could use a little more empire management, I think Civ VI’s encouragement of wider play is basically right (3) no Venice (a point specifically made in the article). Hopefully that’s something a Third Expansion of Civ VI might fix (2) Civ V dis-incentivised “wide” by having more empire management (eg global happiness, more restricted gold). The only real differences I can see are: (1) Civ V has more permanent choices than Civ VI because of Social Policies.
Civ VI seems to have almost all the same mechanics (and where it does, I think Civ VI basically does those mechanics better).
How is this still something people talk about? Is this just a meme that’s past its usefulness or relevance, or is there a real difference that’s still worth discussing? I haven’t really played Civ V, but at this point (ie after GE) I can’t even see there is all that much difference between the two games. I think these articles are mostly driven by slow news cycle for games - particularly for a website focused on niche games - but I thought people might be interested to read and discuss. Article from Strategy Gamer discussing Civ V v Civ VI - link here.Īrticle basically discusses opinions on why it’s taken so long for Civ V to overtake Civ VI on steam.
