I'm surprised at the Civ look and feel to this considering it's from Paradox. I think that's smart on their part and can't wait to get my grubby paws on this.

Paradox is only the publisher on this one. It’s being developed by a group called C:/>  (C-prompt).

I never did buy Humankind. Millenia looks more gooder to me going by what I have read so far.

Loitering with intent.

Humankind sucked big, glittery Christmas tree balls. You did good to save your money. Millennia may fool me again, but I'm gonna buy it.

Hi, I'm Steelie and I'm a 4x junkie.

Somewhere, somehow, I woke up in the wrong timeline. I'm pretty sure this isn't even my dimension.

I agree. One major mistake Humankind made was not letting the player play the same civilization the entire game. The whole culture changing thing is nonsense. One era I'm Greek, the next I'm suddenly Aztec! It breaks immersion which is a huge no-no for me. I'm hoping Millennia gets it right.
