They've confirmed that they are based on total lifetime progress, not just since starting the tech/unlocking it on the tree.

This is a really good list so far. A lot of female leaders, and a few really unconvential picks like Scythia. Also we're finally getting a non Julian emperor for Rome. I'm pretty sure one of the unknowns is Persia, it looks a LOT like a Persian relief. Problem is it'll be nearly impossible to know who, since the art was very stylized.

I'm dubious because Gamestar just a had a big article/reveal last month. Would be weird for them to do back-to-back previews/reveals for the same game. Also, if it's from Gamestar, why is it in English?

As I suspected, the "Henry VIII leader portrait leak" was a total fake. It was a mockup done by a modder that someone ran with. I really, really doubt we're getting multiple leaders per civ any time soon.

Kalko posted:The CF thread pointed out that in the video Brazil has dashed borders in one part and solid lines later on. Apparently this is because in the early game borders are less strict and you presumably don't need to sign an Open Borders agreement to move into another civ's territory, but later on (maybe with certain techs or eras) they turn into the familiar system from previous games. If true, that's a neat feature.

It's definitely a step up from Civ IV though. The problem with IV was that there was basically no puzzle- it was static, and involved open information entirely. Now you have to learn it via spies, and hidden agendas mean that the precise likes/dislikes change each game. The uniqueness of agendas should also add a lot of variety to the game- instead of a leader just being more/less warlike/culture/religion-focused, they also have specific behaviors that drive them.

Gully Foyle posted:Keep in mind that 'continent' means something different in Civ VI. It's not just 'part of the same landmass', but are rather defined and named areas in the game. I'm not sure what the algorithm is, but even Pangaea maps are reported as having multiple different continents. So things like the American bonus for fighting on the home continent or the English Redcoats bonus for foreign continents can come into play differently even for Pangaea.

The only thing I find weird is them including Gorgo at launch as opposed to DLC, which Isabella seems to be in. Also Mvemba a Nzinga is Alfonso's original name.

Gorgo isn't a separate Civ, on the alphabetical bingo board she was alongside Pericles.

Hidden information is a core part of almost every game though. If spies take too much micromanagement that's a problem itself, but not knowing exactly what the opposition is doing is not a flaw.

OfChristandMen posted:I like how Greece just gets a better policy bonus slot than Barbossa. Greece looks strong and good. Their theater district needing to be on a hill is a strange gameplay restriction, since it says it wants to be close to your city center which means you might not settle on a hill, only next to one so your Acropolis gets good.

Ok that's weird. Even better for Pericles then. It will be interesting to see the difference between Pericles's diplomatic focus vs Gorgo's likely aggressive focus.

Yea. Culture is not the same beast as Civ 5 at all. In Civ 5 you just needed some level of culture to get the best policies at a reasonable pace. Getting more culture had serious diminishing returns as policy quality and cost increased. In Civ 6 culture is a completely parallel path, complete with economic and military bonuses. You won't be able to ignore it and you will be incentivized to get as much as possible. There's even wonders and buildings there to reward the player who goes hard for culture.

Super Jay Mann posted:The truth is that the turn dates are calibrated toward a very laid back playstyle and that anyone who is remotely good at Civ games is going to reach eras far earlier than the "historical" dates just by virtue of knowing what they're doing. Seriously in 5 I can hit industrial era by the 12th century. It's just not feasible to calibrate.

The new art style is way more readable, which was their primary goal. Adding districts and wonders to the map made readability much more important, since it'd be very easy to overwhelm the player otherwise. Civ 5 had pretty piss poor readability and I occasionally had trouble picking out resources and improvements, even after many hundreds of hours.
