    Do we really need a new Civ every few years? I feel like we haven’t had a real need for a completely new one since Civ V. What can they improve upon? Graphics? That’s laughable for a game like this.

      It’s been 8 years since VI came out. That’s the longest they’ve gone between releases since the original. It’s also difficult to say if it’s necessary without actually seeing what VII has to offer. If it’s VI with a new coat of paint, then I agree. But I hope they bring a novel aspect like districts was for VI that made it worth it.

      Diplomacy. They can improve diplomacy. Will they? Absolutely not. But they could.

        Sure, they could improve on many things, but does that justify the making of a new game? They could just patch Civ VI.
