I was using my faith on rock bands

...plus my rock bands.

Not gonna lie, these bits almost make me want to pick up and try Civ6. 

...Almost.

If you think the UI in DW2 is bad, Civ6 is worse.

Here at ACD, we all pee the same color.

Well for starters, I've never been a big fan of the Civilization series to begin with (for whatever reason(s)).  Civ 4 was about the only one that I ever really enjoyed at all. 

Firaxis then pretty much turned me off to the franchise completely with Civ5:  Not only was the AI significantly dumber, but they switched to the 1UPT system, which I absolutely despise.  As for Civ 6, just about everything I've seen/read makes it look like a step backward for the series.

While i do enjoy Civilization 6, 4 and 3, i have always thought that the MOO1 design was superior.  Horizon and Armada 2526 have similar concepts (multiple reseach and multiple building options). Also the Diplomacy model for Civilization games is terrible.  :doh:

I confess I don't remember how diplomacy in the Civ games work.  (It's been a while since I played.)  What don't you like about it?

I still can't get enthusiastic about the series.
