Sid Meier's Civilization - old community

Announcement of the shutdown: https://lemm.ee/post/65824884

I didn't started this community, just took it over when Civ VII was announced, I saw the original mod stopped using lemmy.

There weren't much conversations here since, mostly just reposts of news and reviews. But since Civ VII was released the amount of articles diminished, so I don't expect a lot of content to be posted here in the near future.

What should happen to this community?

• I moved to to lemmy.zip, if there is some interest I can recreate this community over there.
• There are several other Civ communities on the lemmyverse, I can add a note/post to redirect people there. And I can continue posting the occasional news to those communities.

Other civ communities:

• !civ@lemmy.ca - mod inactive. Maybe they can make me a mod there
• !civ@level-up.zone - former reddit archive, now mostly inactive
• !civilzation@lemmy.ml - no mod

I can see on lemmy.ca they frequently appoint mods from other instances here: !communityrequests@lemmy.ca so using it as a new community would be possible, as I won't register there.

Other related communities, both very active:

• !strategy@lemmy.world
• !turnbasedstrategy@lemmy.world

What do you think?

Civilization VII's Content Collections offer additional paid content to expand on the game's foundation and open up new strategic possibilities for building empires you believe in!

Crossroads of the World Collection includes:

• 2 new leaders: Ada Lovelace, Simón Bolívar
• 4 new civilizations: Carthage, Great Britain, Nepal, Bulgaria
• 4 new Natural Wonders: Machapuchare, Mount Fuji, Vihren, Vinicunca
• 1 badge cosmetic bonus

If you don't want to watch smth on YT, and avoid the click:

• Advisor movies (I, of course, wholeheartedly agree)
• Palace Screen (I know this was one of my favourite things as a kid - even though it is completely superfluous)
• Changing leader art (i.e. Outfits and such change with tech progress)
• Joining Great People to cities (Like in Civ IV)
• Hotseat Multiplayer (It may seem obsolete nowadays, but I genuinely think it does add a nice, more communal kind of MP where you don't have to bring your PCs like in a LAN)
• Keyboard movement
• Bigger maps
• Release the games when I was 10 (instead of when being a sad adult)

Not sure how I feel about the gold vs production mechanic but the rest sounds really cool.

I don't know why Ars Technica has so many civ 7 reviews. Previous one was 2 weeks ago.
