I dearly want to be able to say I like Civ 6. However, Firaxis has left me no choice but to do otherwise.

Godawful AI? Check. Broken diplomacy? Check. Ridiculously easy to win on Prince without conquering anyone? Check. Bugs left over from release three months ago despite two patches? Check. Lack of promised cross-platform? Check. And that's just the current version: most of it was significantly worse on release day.

Perhaps most importantly, Firaxis seemingly reneging on their promise to make this the most mod-friendly Civ ever by prioritising DLCs over modding tools to the extent that they're still not released? Freaking check. There are some wonderful people out there modding for Civ, even for this game despite lack of official recognition, and it seems to me as if you're taking them for granted. You can't use the existence of the AI+ mod as an excuse not to work on vanilla AI!

Shame on you, Firaxis. I thought you hadn't fallen into the trap of producing buggy, DLC-reliant games with release dates a year too soon, which take advantage of the modding community and yet don't support it in any way.
