    Civ6 is a 64-bit game, so older Windows systems will have issues.
    Similarly, the game expects a reasonably recent graphics card.
    Here are the specs:

          In OS X with my 2018 basic MBP 13 I have been mostly playing Small, but having fun.

            I have a pretty decent 17" Mac, 2017, but Epic is not giving away the iOS-friendly version.

          I have Windows 10.
          I'm going to trash the damn game. I don't need the aggravation.

                  Never really got on well with Civ 6...found it quite frustrating. Miss Civ 5 - might go back to it.

                    Hard to beat the price... I'll give it a go. Going to play it without looking at any strategies or advice. It's not like the tribes knew that they'd have a better government four techs down the road.

                      I think that is always the best way to play, and then I try to improve my play based on what I learn or read from friends (like here) and not by 'training' myself.

                        It's good, I think at this point better than Civ 5 + XPs, but not better than Vox Populi.

                        I really like the districts concept, but dislike the fact that once you lay one down, there's no removing it.
