@el-shmiablo amazing suggestion. I did complete it around release but I think it's been long enough to maybe jump back in.

@hazz3r I think deck building is a mess right now, mostly because the interface in the deck editor is just not clear, deck building in itself is already a kinda complex subject and heavily dependent on strategy so I too hope we see some changes to that. I also agree with your second point and I think it is one of the main problems with making the game more automatted and requiring less clicks, in the old platform you'd be able to set stops after every single step and it would only keep going until you said it was ok, this is definitively less flashy and can make games drag a bit but it allows for more direct control from the player as well as introducing a bluffing and posturing factors in similar ways to what you have when playing with paper, so it is an aspect that I enjoy and that may not be completely compatible with the direction they have with Magic Arena

I'm actually leaving for Japan in about a week, gonna be staying mostly in Tokyo but going to Kyoto as well. I really don't have any solid plans, only going to be there for about a week so its not a ton of time. Mostly I want to check out those big gaming stores and maybe pick up a super famicom.

@bard91 That's so borked dude, I almost forgot about Persona.

@terminallybill Maybe this is what Kojima spent those last six months of being locked out of the room during MGSV's development on.

@Sieghardt I'm curious about Berseria, but I'll have to wait until I see how it is received, and even then I might wait until a price drop. I'm not gonna say that I'm not interested in anything else coming out soon, but not in even close to the level of anticipation of P5, and I tend not to buy games at launch, so I'll probably just try to clear some stuff from my backlog

If my start location has barbarian problems, (Spawn frequently), I'll almost always go Slinger -> Warrior -> Slinger -> Scout. Giving me 2 Warriors, 2 Slingers-Archers, and one scout. If I'm playing on a large map I'll probably go with a second scout. If I can easily defend my start location then I'll do Slinger -> Scout -> Worker. Higher difficulties the AI will declare war on you 20 or so turns in with a whole horde of enemies. Overall I'm pretty happy with Civilization 6. The major complaints of the game come down to balance issues, and the higher in difficulty you play, the more complaints you'll have. I've often found half the AI in the game will expand 2-cities, and then no more. One issue here I think is that the move from Renaissance -> Industrial -> Modern is far too quick for the human player. Because most of the AI has some sort of bug with expanding, their science gain falters heavily and you'll quicky outpace them. They also don't use ranged units, and never use modern ones. As soon as modders have access to the SDK, all of this issues and many more will be solved. Civilization VI provides a much better platform to build upon than any of the previous Civilizations, but for now, I'd recommend waiting to get the game if you play above Prince difficulty. Especially @alexwhiteplays, because it often feels like you are taking advantage of the AI in a very ungratifying way. It's basically the feeling of finding out someone let you win. Oh, they weren't even trying... - that type of feeling. But there's already quite a few mods, and I highly recommend going to www.forums.civfanatics.com - as they are the go-to place for the current non-SDK mods. (These mods are often just simple text files until the tools are out)

@bard91 Yup, my recommendation was based on the 3 Fates games only, but I agree with the others, if you just want any Fire Emblem game to dive into the series, Awakening is the best choice!
