I guess this should be in the Civ VI subforum?

Civ6 is on holiday discount on Steam... Minus a meagre 10%, so the price is still €53,99. A bit strange for a die-hard Civ fan like me to still not have bought or even played Civ6 yet. (But then again, I'm overloaded with deadlines at the moment anyway.)

I'll probably wait until it hits 50% discount and will buy the DLC's in a similar manner. Just like I did with Crusader Kings II and Europa Universalis IV (75% discount even) and that still costed me €40 altogether.

You could buy it at something like Gamer's Outlet for 33 euros.

I bought the scenarios: Easy wins on Deity, no storyline at all...

It's horrific to see the AI struggle with basic tactics. I think I've lost a city to an AI once or twice in maybe 50 games. And those were far off island cities taken by ships. I do not know where to begin with the huge list of discomforts. CFC forum is full of them. Diplo is still utter crap, and so is reputation. Religion is dramatic.

Thinking of playing this again makes me contemplate suicide.

I'm so happy I finally got Dishonored 2. It is gorgeous, a masterpiece, and runs OKish on my PC with 760GTX. Considering that I paid only 30 bucks for this work of art, in no way I'm buying Civ 6 bs for more than 5 bucks. People post all kinds of horrors about it still after 3 patches. Now, no time for idle chat, I've got to deal with this Delilah bitch.

I got Dishonored GOTY for 5 bucks, and that's a good price. I loved the main game, but I disliked the DLC. I'm not tempted to try, but since I'm in the process of designing a pile of components I think Dishonored 2 might just be the game to see how good a game can look.

Playing Football Manager doesn't really make a good point for building a PC with i7. Or R7.

I've played Civ 6 a couple of days last year and it's biggest horror imo is it being so boring. And it has no OCC which I enjoy a lot in Civ 5 for some reason.

Dishonored 2 seems to be a lot of fun to play, but I also read it's PC port is a bit erratic. How is this nowadays?
