Shoshone are the best civ

[Thirdful]

I must say the Shoshone are the best civ 6 civilization. I love how the Native Americans were well represented and given proper respect for their nation.

Sarcastic much?

Come on, the Aztec (also Native Americans) have been in every single Civ game, and although I agree with you that I would love to see more native american tribes represented in the game, they're hardly comparable to the influence African, Asian, European and South/Central American civs had in the world. So with only 19 Civs to start with, it's only logical that some are left out. I do hope they're added later, but I also hope more European ones are added, and more African ones, and other more tribal societies of the world.

Then there's the matter of defining a "Civilization" which I do think North American tribes constitute as, but they don't make the cut by much... at least not if you take this definition [www.dictionary.com].

The Shoshone aren't in Civ 6, yet. There may be a mod for them already, I don't know.

Some of the way they start a city in Civ 5 is in this game, Russia, under Peter. But no ones scouts quite match up to the Civ 5 version of them.

Oh.

Civ V started with 3 American civs. 2 of them were natives.
Civ VI started with 3 American civs. One of them is native.

But sure. Pretend it is a big deal or something.

Where is my INUIT NATION!?!?! THIS IS AN OUTRAGE! They advanced the use of whale blubber for christ sake! Could easily have the nations starting location in the tundra tiles. Their unique unit could be an orca. Jesus firaxis, way to be inconsiderate ***es.

Seems a bit silly to add north American natives before other more important ones as they did not have writing so did not have real civilisation, also they achieved nothing after thousands of years and got destroyed by real civilisations very quickly.

Time for an anthro lesson.....

Naw, everyone has thier thoughts on what is and what wasn't. I did it for a living, but even then, we (I) enjoyed arguing over the major and minor points of prehistory. I was contract Archeaology, I was the *♥♥♥♥, I did it for the money, different state, differant week, year round.

Always get excited when a game brings in "Archeaology", but not a one handled it close to the real deal.

I got kinda close with some Native American elders, through the course of my thoughts and endevors. I think it safe to say we all cry for the loose, the forgotten, for all sides.
