Is this game worth playing with mods?

[niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiick]

I'm aware this game is relatively new compared to other civ titles and I'm aware of the existence of the braindead AI, and the annoying warmongering problems, but, does getting AI overhauls and other mods that improve the weakpoints of the game make it any better?

Is this game worth getting, or should I hold off and get a different game till there's a bigger sale??

yes, it is - for me.
Mods like CQUI make the game feel better, cause the normal playertrade-sceen is the most terrible thing was i ever saw looked.
mods like more lenses are awesome.
you can use a AI-Mod of your choice for overpowered AI-Enemy oder better balanced types. some AI-Mods are crap to be honest, but the .
some mods makes warmongering problems more balanced or hardnerf this.

stay safe.

I would wait tell a sale. There should be a good sale on everything at lest by this years winter. Ya, the Ai is horrible, and still is with its recent patch. You can have mods to make the game more easy, cause there is a reason for warmongering in the game its jjust thhat the AI is nuts right now.

To me, if the AI is bad, it does not matter how cool the game looks or its depth because you will be cringing almost every turn in the game after about turn 30. The difficulty settings still let the AI cheat a lot, so they knew it sucked on release.

Up to you if you want to wait and have a better cheaper experince or buy now, its your money.

Is there a mod for a lense for military units? Finding those in late game is impossible.

There is no mod that fixes the insanely broken AI, but there are plenty of mods that fix most other crap, CQUI for example.

A whole lot of people are not playing civ6 now because of its obvious shortcomings: not one minute ago, there were 23k people playing civ5 via Steam, vs 15k playing civ6.

Some of those people most assuredly bought civ6 and are waiting for it to be fixed up to a decent state, for the AI at least.

It is not common to see a many years old prequel title in a series getting more players than the latest release.

So, take that for what you will.

yeah, i decided to wait till a bigger sale, civ 5 w dlcs>civ 6 w mods, plus the art style of civ 6 reminds me of clash of clans, and it kinda ruins the aesthetic of things for me

HOLD OFF.

It's a disaster.

Worst AI of the year, two years running.
