I took it out for a quick drive after midnight and was impressed that there is an actual learning curve with this version. I'm glad. As much as I liked Civ V and would agree that it was a great product, it was enough like its predecessors that its longevity with me was limited. I'm hopeful that the differences in VI are enough that I won't play through 50-75 hours and feel like I've done enough.
And what I've read about barbarians is true--they come to visit early and often. I was just messing around on Prince level and I ended up with 3 nearby camps that were happy to send frequent melee units and horsemen in my direction. I'm a lover, not a fighter in Civ, and they quickly overwhelmed the 3 units I had produced in the early game.
