* Did you ever play V with Vox Populi (fka Community Balance Patch fka Communitas)?
* How did you like VI compared to the earlier ones?
I’m asking because V + VP is peak Civ for me, and because Civ VI was a complete disappointment for me (not helped by there being fewer modding possibilities).
- theshackleford 2y agoI was big into civ5 and a bunch of mods including Vox populi. I enjoy 6 equally after the expansions. Equally, I don’t enjoy five any less.
- Semaphor 2y agoBut that information doesn’t help much without you having played VII like OP ;)
- OskarS 2y agoI liked VI better than V (the districts were fun!) but never touched any mods. I think some of the ideas that were maybe a bit half-baked in VI comes together really nicely in VII.
- Semaphor 2y agoThanks. The districts were a nice idea from Endless Legend, but I felt they were a bit rough in Civ. Refinement of ideas from VI sounds like a good start, good enough that I’ll not completely write VII off ;) I honestly can’t remember much of what V was modless, only my first 300 or so hours were without some VP variant (the mod is still in active development, and has been almost as long as V exists), and I’m at 2700 hours now. When you need a break from VII, I can just wholeheartedly recommend giving V + VP a try, it overhauls a lot of mechanics, fixes a lot of things, and vastly improves the AI.
