If you liked Banished (vanilla), you will like this one, as it has major improvements on the animation side.
Everything else? Nah... Just like Banished, as soon as you discover the "magic formula" to get more food than you spend for the first 2 or 3 days you almost reached the limit of Farthest Frontier.
The game lacks depth. While I do agree that the raiders add a bit of a twist to it, but even so, you can easily defend your settlement and still survive with all the resources you need.
For me, this is a Banished 1.1 and not worth the 28 euros (!) at all. If I knew it before I would wait until it's 80% off or something, and then buy just as a "nice to have" in the library and never play it...

Get ready to have a few crashes at year 80+... gets very annoying and I have a high end pc, can't even imagine how demotivating it will be if the game takes a few minutes to load for every couple of years played

Many new features that need exploring, and different concepts are a big advantage, but historically, I can't help but be extremely disapointed with the Civ VI.

As a Portuguese, I was already upset that my great nation wouldn't be present in the initial game, even though I'm expecting it to be available in the next download.
Even further, I don't understand what the Kongo, Scythia, Brazil and the Aztecs did, in historical reasoning, to deserve to be in the initial game and a nation like Portugal, who actually was the first and longest world empire, had the biggest navy, best sailors and most well known doctors, didn't get a spot in the top20...
What shocked me the most was Spain. The Spanish leader, one of the least memorable in historical terms (he was the one who actually lost the invicible armada vs... a storm), it is a HUGE DOWNGRADE from Isabela in Civ V.
Not only that, but the leader presents himself as "the king of Spain, Portugal and...". Seriously? For a nation with 900 years of historical background, the 60 year period when we had Spanish rulers was the chosen one?
I agree that changing the leaders is good for the game, but why change ones and not the others? Ghandi is still around, and with good reason, why pick a 3rd tier leader from a country to represent that nation?

Played this game for 2h and, due to this and a few other features, already have the will to uninstall it... Certainly not worth the 60 euros, specially if taken into account that the developers are targeting the product to underaged people (as one can see from the incredibly anoying baby graphics) and teach them the most useless caracters in world history.

Thanks Sid Meier's, you actually gave me the worse surprise in my gaming history, it actually topped Beyond Earth for 1st place.
