Civilization 7's huge new diplomacy system is way, way better than in Civ 6
I felt it the most keenly when I played Civilization Revolution, this ongoing problem with Firaxis's 4X icon - and other games like it - whereby interactions with other nations are too limited. In the Civilization games of old, including Civ 6, diplomacy is often a case of just trading a few resources for time-limited favors. It doesn't feel grand. But in Civilization 7, that's all going to change. Firaxis is totally revamping how you negotiate with your rivals. Alongside the big new combat ideas that were unveiled recently, Civilization 7 feels like a shakeup of the series' formula.
