never played 4

big oof, purists still really pump it up and play it (i've seen people who consider 5 a disgrace and 6 an abomination lmao)

4 would be great with all the mods and shit, but the early 3d graphics shit is ugly and i dont say this lightly.

the awkward move from beautiful 2d to disgusting 3d was a growth period i dont want to revisit.

Yeah that’s why the graphics to 6 feel like such a step in the wrong direction to me. You have this elegant and beautiful design with 5 and then make 6 look like a mobile game?

It's always interesting to see different perspectives. I think the graphics of Civ IV are quite charming and I play it to this day.

to each their own. I think it's because I played a lot of these in my awful teenage years, like uh... Sacrifice, Empire Earth, Soul Reaver etc.

Im glad you can enjoy it though! cat-trans

I played a ton of Civ 5 as a kid/teenager, Beyond Earth was the first game I got burned on buying, played some Civ 6 and like some things like the climate change and natural disasters.

beyond earth is actually decent now with the xpac, i think it's underrated

6 is really, really good
