Europa Universalis IV vs Sid Meier’s Civilization VI
Europa Universalis IV
Europa Universalis IV is the fourth game in the award-winning Europa Universalis franchise. Similar to its predecessors, the game has everything you'd need to build your own nation from the ground up and guide it through the ages. The freedom in which you get to customize your giverning style, your nation and even your game is simply ridiculous (in a good way) and of course, the best selling point of this series is that almost everything is based on accurate historical references, be it a historical figure or an event. This time around you'll get to grow your nation over a much wider span of history, arrange royal marriages, form coalitions, support rebels in proxy wars and more. You can even cooperate with up to 32 different players to govern a single nation. The multiplayer mode apparently now has an improved chat and a new matchmaking system.Unfortunately, the major downside about this game is that the developers, Paradox Interactive, have apparently "sold-out" by adding in features that should have been in the original game into DLCs that players actually have to pay extra for, ending up spending over $200 for just a single game. Not to mention, many players have complained that the DLCs they release are priced at the same price point despite having progressively lower amount of content.
That said, the game is still an epic masterpiece and a worthy sequel to the Europa Universalis series, but the game's hardcore player base is admittedly not happy, and honestly, we wouldn't recommend getting this game unless you can get all of the DLCs dirt cheap... maybe like in a bundle.
Sid Meier’s Civilization VI
Sid Meier’s Civilization VI is what many fans have dubbed as the worst Civilization game so far. Why's that though? Well, one major concern about this game is its terrible AI system. Considering that you'll be playing with many different AIs, each controlling a different country, it can be hard to cooperate with them when they are being incredibly unreasonable when it comes to diplomacy, trade and well, basically everything really. Can you imagine an AI proposing a deal to you but ended up breaking up the deal because it didn't agree with the terms it made in the first place? Anyway, there are many other game-breaking bugs too, some of which will crash the game.However, the game does have many of the features that had made the Civilization series great as well as really appealing graphics, it's just that there are too many broken stuff that apparently won't get fixed anytime soon. If you are considering getting this game, we'd recommend you to get Civ 5 instead. It may be older but it's definitely a lot superior than this installment.
