A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

5 is superior imo, it's more simple to understand but has a lot to master. It's more visually appealing too, Civ 6 throws so much extra crap at you.
5 is more depth from simple mechanics. 6 is adding mechanics to try and make depth. I'd recommend 5 for sure, though 2K are kind of scummy and put 6 on discounts to try and force players into that and no longer really put Civ 5 on sale cause they know people would rather buy that.
6 also has a really bad habit of trying to hide a lot of stuff away from you for idk why, cleaner aesthetics? In 5 almost all the numbers are there out in the open ready to be looked at in-game and it makes approaching everything much easier for me
Mods are great for fixing this.
I think 5 is what I'm looking for. Sometimes Civ (in general) gets out of hand with the micromanagement. I want something that's kind of casual.
Yeah, 5 isnt too bad unless you got loads of units late game. 6 overwhelmed me from the get go.
