Burn as slow as you like, but you can't cook with Ash. Every title after V has been a downgrade, gamers are spiteful by nature.

I think gamers as a group can also tend to be forgetful and unable to stick to their principles... How many boycotts were just hot air? I feel like the Civ crowd might be different but I don't hold out much hope that people will really vote with their wallets

I still mostly play V and IV, although I've been meaning to get into VI (have about 50 hours, but that's nothing for a game like Civilization).

gamers are spiteful by nature

It's funny but also somewhat true.

I agree. I'm still waiting for the first definitive edition with one expansion to arrive.

I keep saying this every Civ thread but Civ 6 on release looks like quite a different game to when you add the GS and RF expansions.

Oh and they really should hire Luigi to fix the UI.
