All this time and just 300 or so sigs? I think the community has spoken. You are in the minority if you support this petition.

Plus this copy pasta "The game uses a more cartoonish look than those of Civilization V, as according to Firaxis, with much deeper gameplay, they wanted to keep the visuals simple to avoid interfering with the complexity of gameplay. The graphics of individual units and buildings are being developed to be both readily-detailed when viewed in a tight zoom, while still being recognizable from other similar units when viewed from a distance. This necessitated the simpler art style to allow players to quickly recognize units and buildings while looking over a city without having to resort to user interface tooltips or similar distractions, according to Shirk. Individual units will be designed to include flair associated with the given civilization, such as applying different helmet styles to the same class of footsoldier units."

Yeah, it was also clear from early forum polls on a lot of sites. Including CivFanatics and official forums on 2K. And that was before a lot of people changed their mind and expressed like for the style.

Well....That's look weird.
The discussion, i mean.All those people, WHINING about how they love all those "cartoons" and mixing "Anime", "animated mvies", "grotesque animation" (and many more things) as "cartoons". Good joob...

For example:

Urutsukidoji.
Graveyard of the Fireflies.
Megazone 23.
Mononoke Hime.
...

Not all animation, or "cartoons", are for children exclusively. Some of them aren't for children at all.

That's not "cartoons"=)

Yes, it is.

So is Bambi, and The Lion King, and Space Battleship Yamato, and Ranma 1/2, and FLCL.

I'm not talking about 21+yo lads and lasses, who thinks of themselves like about "adults". I'm speaking about people at least 30 years old. What should i say to my daughter, when she see me playing "this"?

<--- 45 years old. Thinks Civ6's graphics are just fine and dandy.

Well, good for you. I hope, you will enjoy this game - that's all i can say....
In the end, the game is finished, and we can't do anything about it.

[GM Pax]

I'm pretty sure I will enjoy the game.

What I do not enjoy, is the nonsense conflation of "cartoon" = "childish" = "low quality".

If it's not to your taste, that's fine - not everyone has to like the same things. But there's no need to try and justify that dislike with some under-thought "it is childish and I am an adult so I am SUPPOSED to dislike it" nonsense.

Just say you don't care for the aesthetic of it, and move on. Yeesh. I mean, seriously, suggesting your young daughter will lose respect for you because you're "a grownup" and might enjoy something with cartoon graphics?? Ridiculous nonsense.

I completely agree. Right now, I'm playing a game which looks like it came out from the 90s, and I'm having lots of fun. Just because it doesn't look ultra-realistic doesn't mean it can't be good.

If that's for me....

I never meant anything about "low quality".
And WHY? WHY people here don't have a sence of humor at all? )))))
I joked. I SAID that was a joke. TWICE!!!! - and people again treat those words seriously? Really? by the stars....just forget those words, ok? =)))

In fact' i agree too. Right now, i'm playing "crypt of the necrodancer" - and that's not the "cartoons" that let games be good, or bad.

Cartoon graphics, whatever the rationale, is a silly distraction that I hope they rectify

It's not a distraction. It's a help for players to see what is happening in the game.

[MarthaMyDear]

Today is first time I've allowed myself to peek at the new icons, animations, etc.

I have to admit, looks very 'cartoon-y'. For instance, was looking at a pic of Russian Cossack and his horse. The horse is very much anthropomorphic...looking at the Russian with his eyebrows ♥♥♥♥♥♥, kind of grimacing... YUCK. Not my idea of how a Civ game should look.

Will still buy but will have to turn off all animations, etc. Limit having to see all the cartoon antics. :(

People took you are your word as originally stated ... and all too often, "I was only joking" is just an attempt to deflect.

If you intend humor, label it as such in the same post.

Because, you know what? I've had this same argument against someone who said the same general sort of things you "joked" about AND THEY WERE DEAD-AS-A-DOORNAIL SERIOUS.

There isn't a <sarcasm> font, yet. You have to make the labelling much more blatant.

Read my messages again, please. that all i will say now.

You want to get serious? Fine.
Wou want it - you got it:
Civ6 have TERRIBLE terrain textures (from youtube), terrible unit art-desingn and good (actually, not just good - VERY good, somehow grotesque) leader's personalities.

Any objections on this ?

Except it wasn't - 'cause you kept talking. :shrug:

I am not a mindreader. There is not - nor did you use - a <sarcasm> font, nor an <I'm only joking font. There was no way to know you were joking, since we couldnt' s your facial expressions or read your body language and when you posted that you didn't indicate that it was a joke.

Whch means at this point, you're upset because people took you at your word, and had the audacity to believe you actually meant what you said. Gasp, the horror, gasp.

Any objections on this ?

As such? No, that's your opinion. I disagree, but such is the nature of opinions.

Well, if you disagree, maybe you can show me good, high-resolution terrain textures in this game?
Nicely animated trees ? Awesome water reflections, no?
Or you will say, that in 2016 year, 21-th century games dont need those things?

They really don't, no. Sure, good looking games are nice and all, but at the end of the day, tell me, what would be gained by wasting extra resources on animating trees? Trees, which, in the real world, are mostly static, unless there's wind or something like that, and Civ games have never had a weather cycle. The trees in Civ games are tiny. They're there to represent forests, not so that people can look at them and say "wow, these are some pretty decent trees". What's next? Asking for farms to be animated, having tiny farmers picking up the crops? Having tiny people working in the quarries?
